Year comes once in four years, and it Is well it does, in • a certain sense st least. The “lords of crea tion” are a-vain set, and having ev erything. their own wily, they Boon imagine that they alone can bring to perfection any social nr other scheme, but when Leap Year. rolls around, and the ladies take the lead, this ideals usually banished, and the aforesaid “lords!’ made to understand that they are not so imj»rtant aa they think. Last night’s Masquerade Ball was a well administered lesson of this kind.. The ladies managed it entirely from inception to dose, and it surely de serves a position near If not at the top of the list of. social events for the last year or two, and the lady * com mittees have reason to fool that their efforts, were c owned with success. The program consisted of ten pieces, a supper and the german, and at nine the music began, the first dance was called, and the merry maskers “chose their partners,” the ladies, of course, exercising the priv ileges given them by the occasion; The number in .mask waS quite large, and the costumes very good, the majority being pretty rather than grotesque, as seems usually the pre' vailing style. Many of the gentle men were also in costume. The even ing was quite warm, and in conse quence the masks were removed at ah eftrly hour, when followed tie us ual number of surprises and revela tions. At midnight the supper, bountiful in. quantity and excellent in varicjty, waagerved, and th verm their polite attentions to the dethroned “lords” flitting hither and thither (hat none might be omitted or want for atten tion. Mrs. M. F. King, Mrs. Me Cullough, Mrs. Wayne. Mrs. Drury and Mrs. J. E. duBignon, constitu ted the committee in charge, and un der their management this interest ing feature was a complete success. At the conclusion of the feast the german was called, at least forty couples participatiag, and in' tho sometimes beautiful, and sometimes amusing figures of that popular dance ample pleasure was found un til a late hour. Mrs. A. C. Banks, and Misses An-' nie H : ne, Ida Moore and H. E. Gad dis officiated as floor managers, with Mr. H. T. Dunn as honored assistant. The officois of the Leap Year Asso ciation are: Mrs. A. J. Crovntt, P*es-. ident; Mis. L. W. Hazlehurst, Vice P esident; nnd Mrs. J. S.

Prof. Tripp, of Boston, whose sub scription course of lectures is ex pected to begin in Brunswick' in the course of a week, visited Europe as early as 1835, and there saw a num ber of the celebrities of the Old World, .including Queen Victoria a year before she ascended the throne of England, and her uncle, the late King Leopold 1st, of Belginm. Prof. Tripp was afterwards a student in France for a year and attended the public lectures in Paris. In 1847 he went to Europe to exam ine the educational instititutions of the continent, an was an eye witness ofthe great Paris Revolution of Feb ruary, 1848.

Gordon, our Governor, we learn, with his family attended a course in Georgetown, D. C. in 1874, while he was a U. S. ’Senator.
