Bailie Lockhart, Daughter of the Kegiment; Misa Epping, liaidee; Mrs. Lee A. Jordan, Pink Domino. T/u Atlanta Bex Halt and Our Ma.qaeraitt Comparison, .re odion., we know ; but we can't help feeling a little proud of our maaked balls after reading about the re- oent one in Atlanta. Uueh waa expected and the Atlanteao seemed highly pleased with ita success; yet thero were only 147 maskers. Of these, 37 were in domino and 10 simply in mask, leaving total in costume 94. Our city does not equal Atlanta iu promises for big displays, but our last annual masquerade had 152 maskers iu “character 1 —no domino, nor simple mask withont costume, being allowed. 'The managers promise that this year the ball will eolipse any previous one, and we suppose it will. Everybody in Colum bus takes an interest in these entertain ments, and we generally come out ahead of our sister cities in this kind of enter prise. Re-A ppni nleft.

Albert Kirvkn. octl-eodAwly TiiK inevitable. A RUNAWAY AND SMASH UP. Now it does seem a pity for these things to happen, yet we literally itch, grin and pull our hair some days for some thing of the kind to tarn up. One-half of the day had passed away, and we bad found but one item. But as we have said before, Providence is always with ns, and we are going to have news regardless of the damage. Americans, pause and pon der over this a moment. “Othello 1 obliged to have an occupation, and if be doesent have an interesting oolnmn the public grumble. Something to the detri* went of some one most happen at least onoe a week. If there is not a first-class fight, runaway or faneral the coroner must hold an inquest. Somebody must suffer, and it is inevitable. The public expect news, and ye Local most have these items and consequently yearns for them. Well do we remember the cor oner's having held two inquests in one day, not long since, but was allowed pay tor only one. Yet he had to have a jury for each and we, a sensation of both. Now, when misfor tunes befall you, look at them in the light of a philosopher and you will Bee that it is all for the newspapers. If yon Ioro your friend, console yonrself with the thought that he had a first class orbituary written in which the Local tells falsehoods for which the Lord will never forgive him. If you lose a rich parent, jnstmake yourselves contented,for you will be much happier at having yonr name heralded through the land as having inherited fifty or one hundred thonsand dollars than ye Local who is paid about fifty or sixty dol- lars a month for writing it. My dear friends, we should look at this in a Chris tian light and never fret over these little ills which befall us. But these remarks are only prefatory to and preparatory for what is to follow, for we do not wish to let it oome like a shock or “a wolf in the night time.” We desire to meet the issue boldly with all of our dear readers and bear the inevitable as it is, for we have these “inevitables” quite often as was remarked in a previous line. We desired only to approach the subject slowly and we announce it as fol lows: Abraham’s horses were hitched to a very large chariot and they had been out unto the fiery steed whose bowels are eternally burning within. As they wero journeying back with several weary trav elers, the mighty iron trace fell heavily upon the proud black's leg which made him wax unto auger and he did fly. Tho “spotted horse” was bitched by his side and saw a sight and he flew likewise. So they both flew, my brethren. No less than seven devils ran into these steeds’ heels before they began the mighty run, just in front of a certain conjurer’s shop on Randolph street, who deals in all kinds of roots and herbs. They had not gone far before the powerful rein, which was pulling against the fieroe black steed, broke,and the charioteer in full pan- oplpy, and likewise the weary travelers, who went out at the baok door, fell prostrate upon, rather into, a Ibblolly. They had at that time, as it were, given up the ghost and returned to dust, but mixed with an abundance of water. These mad steeds, whose eyeballs did glare, didn’t stop their sweep, but rushed on aud were going to put up nt a placo in which is kept all kinds of rich jowolry, but a certain man named Jomes Dense was standing on the oorner, and they couldn’t stand his appearance. They made a slight turn and struck a large iron post which is “by night a pillar of fire.” The fore wheels wero knockod from boneath the chariot, and tbe steeds went on their way just as if nothing had happened. The spotted horse in his wild career fell like into an avalnncho at the next corner below, where in is kept the staff of life. He went broad side, but it didn’t stun him, for he is a “stunner.” He arose immediately, and, foaming at the month, went off more fu riously than ever. Not a soul was hart, for every one had his armor on, and his lamp trimmed and full of oil—of rye. Manufactures at Columbus.

Dispatch to the N. O. Democrat.] Washington, Jan. 9.—I had a talk with General Gordon last night, in whioh he remarked in reply to a question, that he regarded Ben Hill’s attitude before the country as most deplorable, and calculat ed to demoralize, to some extent, the sen timent of tbe Democratic party at a crisis when unity in council, in firmness of line, are needed more than ever before in onr history. He would not say that he knew, of his knowledge, that Hill’s attitude was one of hostility or disaffection towards the cause of the party, bat he said it was exceeding ly unfortuualo that Mr. Hill's aotion in some instances in the past had laid a foundation for tho reports and rumors concerning hia present designs which now fill the columns of the press. The General added that he did not feel at lib erty to give free expression to his opin ions touching Mr. Hill’s attitude, for the reason that if he shonld do so it might be construed as an interference by him in the Senatorial contest now pending in Georgia; therefore, be oonld not go further than to say that Mr. Hill's attitude was nnfortunate for himself and deplorable to the Demo cratic party. He would not undertake to say whether Mr. Hill was wholly or in pArt to blame for the attitude in which current report, fortified by the logio of his past career, had placed him. I may add that the Baltimore American of this morning has an article declaring that the Democrats cannot depend on Hill to sus< tain their programme, applauding him in various ways, and closing with these words: “Hill thinks he has been badly treated by the Demooracy of his State and in Congress, and is ripe for revolt.” This, coming from a Republican paper, notoriously in the confidence of the Hayes managers, cannot be withont significance. Buell. gen. Gordon’s reply. In reply, Gen. Gordon telegraphed to a friend in this city as follows : “I have just seen the reported inter view in tho Now Orleans Democrat. It is an inaccurate version of a conversatiou supposed to bo entirely private. Although I do not agree with Mr. Hill as to the correctness of the polioy of his recent utterances, and have regretted the effeot of them, yet I havo taken no part in the Senatorial race, but have uniformly re fused to do so.” T I L D E N TO BE INAUGURATED! Lot Retaining Boards make their re ports as they may, yet it will appear— 1st, That James A. Lewis carries five times the largest stock of Dry Goods, No tions, Hats, Boots, Shoos, Ac., of any house tn tho city. 2d, That James A. Lewis buys in such largo quantities as enables him to offer inducements that other houses cannot. 3d, That James A. Lewis will not be undersold by any house Sooth, hence all parties wanting Dry Goods should not fail to examine his stock and prices be fore buying. You can always fiud goods, new and cheap, at the New York Store, as they re ceive goods daily. nov2G eod LOCAL BRIEFS. -“Hoppcrdozod” is the latest addition to our common speech. —Never put it iu any man’s power to ruin you.—Ianderbilt. -A graphic lecturer says: “Fulton’s head was the first engine house.” -Tho Government steamer, Clara Dun ning, arrived yesterday from Apalachico la. —We have never seen the streets more sloppy than now.
