None but Odd Fellows in good sUuwJugand their lady friends, are invited to the Soci able on Monday ' evening, and no others will be admitted, the Soci able being entirely distinct and sep. ante tro the ball, and having no Amillion with it. T h reason for not extending the invitation to out siders is, that tlie guests of Albany Lodge, members of the Older from a distance, will fill tbeirhall to its utmost capacity We were request ed to say this much by the Lodge to the public, so that there might bt uo misunderstanding in the mat- ter.

A friend of ours awl his wife, on a visit to this city, one day recently procured a horse and bugiy in which to take a spin and glance at the surroundings of Our city.

Tliai it was that our menu orougnt nvo nil I, c nmiracrn ami coolness: he M 1 V lU IK-Ml- klAii entered into the contest with spirit, and by the use of, good judgment, a quick eye audu firm rein, he held the demoralized 'animal in the right track, which led to an enclosure for chickens. Having reached theenclos. niU, tliat demorali7d auimal went through boards, Jiickcts, etc., light ing among the birds in rather a tang'cd up mess, most of the shed being on top, and holding the ani mal level until he could be secured.
