Several sections Imye bean completely cut ofi*. Death stalked abrond in one of the old cocked bats of tho Inst century.. Thn rascally undertakers were Rotting rich— the pretty milliners wore compelled to grow e- conomical—and the ready made coffin makers were actually in treaty for bank stock. Tho Italian Opera was,gone—-dip Garcia had de parted—and nothing remained, but a few pas. sages of Barbire and 'Giovanni; worn to tho very vertebra of gentility by tho mouths of tlio vulgar. The Vestris had piroutted away eve ry rag of.novelty thatfonce invested her Phi- dian limbs. The ihcntres were confirmed a bore. Soyeral back clouds or 4'scontent hung round thp edges of good society. : Assemblies were the same dull thing all ihe season round. The exquisites *of Broadway sighed, snu (fed, sneezed, aiid swore by turns. The female dashers read the cirtulating libraries through, midi like tlio Macedonian Hero, sighed for more imaginary worlds to devour. .The bon ton was absolutely' coming to an end; when, in a moment of inspiration, nnd standing on the ruins of an’empty six dozen of Canipoipne, one great genius of society, namely the Pink, arose and said, “Let us hnvo u Fancy Ball.” Tlio* highest fashions of Europe had hot been introduced among os. • Our eoteries]yero mak ing long and rapid strides in fashionable inde pendence. We patronised theatres equal to London PmU 5 many of us expend a couple of thousands on a party, ortd made ; the banks and pastry cooks sweat for it afterwards. U'c \vqro a gay, dissipated, reckless sort of people; but we had no “fancy.-balls,” Tho imputation was insuCurnhle, Wo were becoming con temptible in the eyes of tho fashionable raggn^ muffins of Europe. It was' reiolved at once to 1 lake such n Step as became tnen who could put their, fingers upon seveti gctierations backwards, without thrusting them iplo a dish, of washer* woman’s impudent soap suds, dr running’thorn against a t ay tor's needle, or a lhoyiunkerV h;-t. \Vd bt’gin ia nmnufachire our own cotton, Why ngt our own absurdities! Arc republicans, for ever to be outstripped by,'th.' worn out r: Europe 1 Never. Is the pore blood i new.world not to mount as high ip ill*- cj old. From tbe Bowling Grften, inYUaiious uif perfumed cards were sent out to the very geo-’ graphical extremities, of the gay .world. Tin* intelligence ran like wildfire from the Battery* to the Park, and from Si. John's to Harm i d street. Tho theatres were ransacked; die nt'd< linors, male and femjile, worked, night and.day ; n deep commotion shook the whole beau mantle; a thousand pretty bosoms beat with rapture so dcop. that (he Canfelo corset itself could scarctv. ly retain its lovely prisoners. Tlio. exquisites' - shook themselves into exiitenpe. The fair d'. uncertain r/ge hruiilied tliemselvesupjUiidkHpck- edoff tt’D years at one blessed blow. The hap py night—the oxactic Tuesday evening atleogtfi approached, and ut half an hour beyond thp; hour of eight the carriages began to roll from every point of tho compass towards tliat centre, ol attraction, thb Bowling Green. vyhHfe flip- most magnificient. themost splendid prepara tions were mado jfor a “Grand Fancy Ball,” tho- first of the kind that ever glorified the fashion able annals of the great city of N. York. .Two* dwelling houses, with marble pieces, (rent $1000 each) were thrown into ono. The apartments’ wore decorated beyond tho feablo powers of description. For two long liours the company, poured in, and wore welcomed by tho most hos- ■ pitahlo uiislrcss of the-, mansion.’ From tliq- very highest authority, wetare enabled to fur-, nish, for the astonishment of the reading world, and tho instruction of tho gay, the foflbivtog catalogue raisanne.e of the nobility and gentry, - who graced and honored the “Ball” with their presume. , ... ■' ; . -. . Mrs. B. A. II. as an Italian Knight,' b«it on tho wars, or for an expedition into Lombtir*- dy. Slio was very beautifully dres( in a Dluo, and white coat, elegaoijy spangled, with a most- lovely Tialiah bhto half cloak; The martial air- with which she flung the cloak over her”sboul-, der, and strode around?'was much admired-—- particularly by Doctor Syntax. Much api plauso. \ ;v’Y (-’ • Mrs.A.B.J. as the sablo Goddess of Night,', otherwise collad Madame Nox. Sfe'J This was a most splendid character, and most-admirably- supported. She was arrayed in a “suit tifs i-* bles,” with an imraenso black veil that nearly/, reached liferpiretiy feci. The veil was <u la mented wiihthree thousand golden spangles to. represent ihe.xarry firmiment; at the- hatir of., 12, midnight* A new moon shed a beam of lo ve ly light from her "head, and in her hand s|w» car-,' ried a sable wand, surmoutiled with an orb of gold to rejircscRt the star of morning. Several*’ Indian pp.ets fell down . at the feet of “Night,”, aiid adored? Iter most forvoutiy. The «harac*r ler was admirably supported. Wonderful ap plause.' '<ti>i ' . •■* G. X. A. B. Esq. as Henry tho Fourth of England. His dross was a very bcautiflil boff and blue, edged with silver and gold lace. Ho; wore the long pointed shoes of that., ago, the, points ol'which,' curiously carved liko a church -; Window, were fastened to his knees with long.' chains of gold, borrowed for a couplo nfdol-i lars of a Broadway jeweller. He talked a good deal about tlio ted and white.roses;' y / Madame L. M', C. -as.tho Grand Silltan of Constantinople. Silo was mpst- splendidly.- drest in tho costumn of tho East.
