Mr. R. W. Barrow as a Spanish Hidalgo, Major Edwd. Whyte, R. Q.R.,as a Polish Noblemsn, and Mr W. C. Have _. as a Spanish Cavalier, were the most rich and` attractive costumes present. A gentleman of the time of Louis XIV. was cepitally got up by It Cecil L. Hornby, and drew forth a good ' many encomiuma from the spectators. The last remark will apply in quite as much" force to the selection of Mr H. de E. Allen, which, to our taste was, if not the very best, certainly one of the best present last evening. It was Coleridge's Ancient Mariner, and the idea was represented, both in action and dress, in an admirably cor- rect and striking manner, which left little or nothing to he wished for. This one costume was in itself a picture. The "Wedding Guest," also from the Ancient Mariner, was extremely good, and really deserv- ed more than a passing notice. A Barbary Moore, by D. A.:(}. Gen. E. Hughes; Styrian Yager, Mr Jas. P. Gildersleeve; aTrooper of the 17th century, by Capt. McGill, R.0.R., and an Indian Chief by Ir W. H. Sharpe, were all much admired, and were put on the scene with commendable taste and_ correctness of drrss, although some slight differences in such a'airs like the present were quite allowable. We must not forget to mention at pauant the very pretty page of the timeof Henri IV. by master Kirk- patrick. A Dutch Skipper by Mr J. Iluckleston was good, while several other characters com- mon to scenes of the kind, we pass over, to give the remainder of our available space to the comic spirit of the scene. A group of four play ing cards attracted much attention `from the novelty-of. the thought, one of them being tek- en by Mr 0 0allaghan, R.A., who subsequently came out in the more original character of . Troubadour. A huge Christmas Pudding by (LII. Ferguson, and a magnicent Wedding oak. , through the large front doors of the building, and were greeted upon their debut with a round of applause. A coloured barber by ll: 1!. J-. B. Pense, was conceived and got up in very good style and taste, which dispensed _with all the usual "yahl yahl" vulgarily of the role. `Mr Jas_ P. Pense also came out as a gentleman darkpy, who appeared by his carpet bag and umbrella to bebn his travels, and certainly his untlring perseverance in pegging along round the rink, and round again, was worthy of a bet- tereaase, and made one absolutely giddy to look at him, and so exceedingly anxious for his health as to feel an inclination to jnmpon the rink and collar him, and peremptorily insist upon his seating himself at once for a little respite, while we in V the meantime ordered a something hot" for his especial refreshment. `I- --_ _s,,,~, -___v_.-v--_- uv nu- up-v-cv- The present pngennt nu, without doubt, an improvement upon the lnst-tbe continue: being, it not quite an numerous, mucbmore nried nnd tnteful, nnd some 06 them particularly good.

The ladies were much more varied in their coetumee than could have been expected, none of them up- pearing in a costume previouely urumed, and were all of them picturesque and graceful, it not strictly in keeping with the character intended to be represented. Wergive in detail a.` few of the most Ilriking coetun1oI,I.t the same time premiaing tint there were a large number of others whose uses we were unable togobmin, but who were all more or less worthy of report. - .

We commence, therefore, with the ladies, just as they occur to our recollection, without other preference than may appear in the passing re- marks. Miss A. Henderson appeared in the dress of a Polish dsnaense, which was altogether one of the prettiest on the rink; Titania by Miss Wilkinson, and a Norman Peasant by Mrs S. A_ Oliver, were both much admired, and deservedly ao. Mrs R. W. Barrow appeared in, perhaps, the handsomest dress on the rink, it was that of a Polish Lady ; it was a selection of much taste. and admirably became the charms of the fair wearer. The four seasons, Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter were very prettily personi- ed by four very pretty girls, to wit, Miss V- Bourchier, Miss Emily Dickson, Miss Blanche Deacon and Mi:3 `May Strange respectively. The Pay of the Forest by Miss Edith Allen, Sylvia (from Shakspeare) by Miss Maude Allen, and Dew Drop, Miss Edith Hacpherson, very pretty, and were very much admired. llin Sharpe appeared as Pop Corn," tastefully trimmed `with that popular article of luxury. t`A buttery,Miaa Deacon, was very pretty, and made many a heart beat with a desire to com- mence the study of entomology never before ex- perienced by it. But. the choicest gem upon the sink was the tiny little F'airy'," lies Minnie Kirkpatrick, whose gossamer wings and iight ethereal appearance made one expect to see her momentarily disappear up away through the roof of the building. Miss B. Barker represented Peace," and a very neat and well got up "housemaid" was the choice of Mrs J. P.. Gi1der- sleeve. ___,-.___,` ._._. --. _- uurvyncu .u-gonna:-Ilwu-.

For \three year! Mr De La Nay was a member of the police force in thin city, during the third year a detective, whose aucceea in working up import- ant caaea procured him the enmity of his brother deiectivel, some of whom he believes laid a plot by which he was inveigled, against his better judgment, intoa technical tniedetneanonr, which procured hie diemiual In February laat. some time after this he became first mate on board the eteamer Connecticut, or the Hancock line, which plied between Troy and Pier No.14, North Riv- er, in thin city. On this boat piles of cotton halea were often carried, among which pecun- gere occasionally lost their hats. A certain hat lost in this way and not reclaimed, came into Mr D.'a poueaeion. One day, while handling the hat, he picked oil the number indicating the line, "H," he thinks, and atuck it. inside of the eweat-hand, and then tore out the lining, which wal loose, and threw it away. Mr D. had also a dark blue annel coat,on the ulcers 0! which were spots of black oil, Ipattered there while its owner wee engaged in oiling the axle of afretght truck on board of the steamer. There was, near the pocket, a large grease mark, which annoyed lira D. whenever her husband were the coat home. ` Aal..,.._ 4,, 4- I 1 `ant: __-,_ kind our lent to that ranou eonntry_.

At this point, according to Mr D. s sto- ry, he clinched the good impression he had made by 3 grand coup.` In presence of chief detective Young, Sergeant Lowery, and several others, he remarked, Now, gentlemen, if I am correct in my opinion, you will nd the number of that hot sticking to the inside of the sweet hand! If it in not there, I will give up all-the claims I have msde. If it in there, I think I am fnirly enti- tled to be reinstated in my old piece." The hat was bronght-seucL was ma.de-the number was found. ' l'l!|.- _I_._2u-` 4- _u ~ Ivnluuu Ill gononlly. Solns apprehension of a rescue would `ap- pear to be entertained by the gnol authori- ties atOltawa. Since the return of Whelan from Toronto guards have been placed upon theprison, and now the strength of the guard has been doubled. Ottawa has the benet of the presence of a detachment of the Mon- treal Water Police, who are well acquainted with the suspicious characters presumed to have been associated with the convict in the assassination conspiracy. The increased procaut\>ns areipresmnptively suggestive of the activity of this class of persons, though the guard may have been doubled simply as a precautionary measure. It may be thought that a body of men who could devote the large sums of money which it is known have been upended in the defence of Whe- lan, might venture on more desperate and dangerous enterprises. It is now known that the law must he allowed to take its course, the day of execution being set down for the Mt): instant. The Railway Times publishes s report of the special meeting of the shareholders of the Grest Western Rsilwsy, convened on the $2110 ult., to consider the srrsngsment with `the Government of Csnsds. for the settlement the nnnv an-uumnhs at 1---- -Il'--- - - -- At Troy, sometime in June, 1363, a man came on board the Connecticut, gave his name as James Mahar, and wanted to work his passage to this city. He was employed as deck hand, and, not being well clothed, the mate gave him the hat and coat. above described. On July l9lb both Mhar and Mr D. left the boat. Later in the sea on Mr D. became a street-ear conductor, and stil , later a peddler of patent chair springs. At internals since July he has seen Mshar about the city, and spoken to him occasionally. On the morning of December 24th or 26th, he met him in University place and passed some words with him. After the murder he caught an aces- sionsl glimpse of the fellow, and on the morn- ing of January 22, he came up with him in Uni- versity place, tapped him on the shoulder, and said, "Jim i" "Jim" sprang as though he had been shot ; and before3Mr D. could express his surprise at this, and ask an explanation, afriend accosted him and Jim slipped away. This circumstance, the fellow s name, and some other straws gave the detective an idea. Between 9 t and 10 o clock last Friday morning, Mr De La Noy, coming down town, met a couple of o`i- cera, and asked if they were after the Rogers murderer, casually saying that if that coat the police had was not a white one, he should be interested himself. The detectives, astonished at such a remark, assured him that it was not a white cost, but a dark blue annel one. The vision of possibilities that ashed across the ex- detective s mind may be imagined. Not an in- stem was lost in seeking Sergeant Lowery, whom, it seems,he had known when a policeman himself, and whom he met in the street. Per. mission to see the cost was asked and granted. It was shown, and there were the "o`l-spots," and the grease mark near the pocket. Its iden- tication was instant ! Mrs De La Nuy also, to whom it was shown the next day, recognised it with equalsoertsinty. The hat, too, Mr De La Noy "knew at once, and said to the sergeant, "if they'll reinstate me on the Police where Istood I'll help to look `up this man. Uommissloner Brennan was at once visited, and a situation was guaranteed to Mr De La. Noy. Uf course the imlmrlnnnn nf nnat.-m int. u 1:... 5u.n1II.ItCCu to int 116 ha. N0]. the importance of nding this "Jim" in sts.ntly presented itself to Sergeant Lowery, and, after s consideration, it was thought,ad- iissble to make A tour of the Station-houses' and look among the lodgers therein for this man. Authority was obtained and the senrch was be- gun with the up-town Station houses. The psrty reached the Spring-st ststion shoot one o clock on Mondsy morning. Looking among the lodgers there, Mr De La Noy spied a. young man stretched out upon `the floor, clothed in nothing but 5 psi: of psntsloons, and instantly exchimed, "Jim, we went you 1' And to Sergeant Lowery, "There s the men I" An arrest was then made,-and snother young fellow, said to be a `psl"of the suspected murderer, was nlsotnken into custody, as being possibly the accomplice, whose evidence is so neeessnry ithe case. These prisoners were taken to the Fifteenth Precinct, the tried, 11D. this noint_ am-m-ding In M. n -. .... uni suunu. The detsils`of the arrests made on Monday morning were given in Tuesds.y s Tribune with the circumstances thafmsde it seem impossible that the suspected man could he the murderer. A further examination of the state of things at the Spring street Police station conrms this view, and makes it almost certain thst Mr De La Noy is mistaken in thinking that John Rob- inson and Jsmes lshar are one and the same person. John Collins (when, by the way, the police are not at all anxious to arrest) has lodg- ed here since the capture of his eornmnim. .. yullliv suv um as an anxious to arrest) has capture companion as well as before, and was called up last night at 7 o'clock and sharply questioned. Be is a good natured looking Scotchrnan, with no objection at all to being arrested and fed, as well as lodg- ed, at the public expense, and says that he has known "Jlt-k" (the only name be ever heard applied to Mr De La Noy's Jim) since last winter; that from" June to -December, 1868, Jack was away in the country somewhere, ditching; that he returned about two months ago, and since then he has had no overcoat, no i knife (not even" a pocket-knife), and has not worn a hat at all, but a cap. He has had two coats, one of which was tornabout New Year s. '-What, torn ? Win one sleeve tom of ?" No; it was only torn on the ap. -`What kind ofs cost was it 7 A brown one---a kind of round- about." "Not a dark blue one 1" No." And what was the other coat 7" "A black one some- body gave him. Couple this evidence with the strong and evident conviction of the umcials at the Spring street station` that their lodger can : possibly be the murderer, and it seems fair to conclude that Hr Do Lay Noy has made a mis- take as to identity (very natural, indeed, con- sidering the circumstances) {and one which leaves his identication of the hat and coat the most important as well as the most extraordina- ry development yet, made in this case, and one which makes it seem decidedly more pullible than it did two days ago that a chain of circum- stantial evidence may yet be forged strong enough to hang the murderer of Mr Rogers. Nevertheless, though Mr De La Noy s story seems worthy of implicit belief, it is best to defer a nal opinion till more facts are eli- cited. _j-_.;...___._-__.

An -amusing lecture been delivered at `Chester, and from its novelty and cleverness we give the following extracts: The Dean slid: W0 might iiompare proverbs in bottles contalnlil the otto of roses, sometimes very old and SP0` tesqne in appearance, but containing much ira- grance in a little space, and would 30F f|'|h 3 very long time. Complete proverbial sentences were of two kinds--either exhortative, such as Maire hay while the sun shines, Think of ease, but work on," "Pardon others, but not thyself. Pull down thy hat on the windy side, or the Spanish one of "Dine with thy aunt, but not ev- ery day ; or indicative, such as these: "Half-a- lost' is better than no bread," Where "30 hfiK is lowest most people go over," or, as Poor_ Rich- ard says, Silks and satlns put out the kitchen re, "Experience keeps a dear school, but fools will learn in no other." "Look not a gift horse in the mouth, might be thought`. to havecome from Yorkshire, but it was found in medimyal history, and he had found it among Armenian proverbs. "One butcher is not afraid of a thou- sand sheep. This proverb was current now in Alexandria. and was uttered by the founder of that city. The grey mare is the better horse," was said at the time that a number of grey horses were sent to England from Flanders. The say- ing, "Bobbing Peter to pay Paul, arose from the hlshopric of St. Peters, Westminster, being transferred to that of St. Paul's, Ludg-its-hill. There was a good saying of Archbishop Whate- ly s, Don't shiver ior last year : snow. What an applicable saying this was for those who were making themulves miserable over troubles that were past He had found this saying in a letter of s Quaker lady, "Some people seem to be starched before they are washed." The in- ternational relationship of proverbs was next alluded ID. in Frieslsnd they say, l)on t sell your ht-rrings before you catch them ;" we say, "Don't buys pig in a poke," whilst in the Trop- ics the saying takes the form of "No man buys yams whilst they are yet in the ground." There was a common saying, A child that has been scalded fears cold water. We often given point to our advice by saying, A bird in the hand is worth two in the*bush, whilst in the districts on the banks of the Nile, where cranes are abun- dant, the people say, A thousand cranes in the air are not equal to one sparrow in the list. We have a beautiful saying, "Every oak was once an` acorne," and there was the same truth and poetry in the African iorm, The great calabash tree had a seed for its mother. We were so no- costnned to repeat that solemn sentence from the Prayer-Book,aud it had berome so proyerbial that sometimes we thought i-t was to be found in the Bible---namely, "In the midst of life we are in death}: How thoroughly Asiatic was [hi3__ "Death is a black camel that kneels at every man : gets." Among the ancient Hebrew say- ings the following were proverbs expressive of sagscity: First build your house, and then think of your furniture ; "A man envies every other man except his son and his pupil ;" You may see that the man is s. collier by the black walls of his honae;" At the doors of taverns friends are plenty; at the door of the prison they are all gone;~' By the road of by-and-by one arrt_Ves at the town of Never. The proverbs of Africa, Egypt and the Guinea Coast partook 1339!! 07 the physical aspect and moral charac- teristics of the country. We say in England of a liiclry person, "He was born with a silver spoon iiL_his month. As to the propriety of not de- spising littlethings, A small date-stone is large 8h ` P"P P 9' large water-jar." Scotland was peculiarly rich in proverbs, and many of them were marked by a dry, caustic, sagacioug humour. Now that he had come near the Welsh border. -he found the nrinoinaliev m... ..:..s. :_ uusuuut. now was no nan the border, found the principality was rich in proverbs, for instance, "If thou wou|d'st here praise, die ;" "By the side of sickness heslth be. comes sweet; "He is not altogether bed who msketh another betler ; No man is good un- les others are made better by him ; "If every fool wore a crown, we should all be kings Ireland appeared to him to be poor in proverbs. It was rather odd that it should be so, when two Archbishops of Dublin had done more to create an interest for proverbs than Any other men of our time. He met with one characteristic Irish saying, namely, Don't throw out your dirty water until you have got in your clone. The rev. lecturer then gave the following specimens of American proverbs: You had A rough row to hoe to-da.y;" When A fellow gets to going [down hill, it does seem us though everything had been greased for the occasion ; Some men are like blind `mules, elwsys wanting to kick, only they never know where. Another characteristic of some of these sayings were very smusing de- gree of self-condence: Some people say that ignorance is bliss; it may he so, but I hsvn t tried it. With regard to Cheshire he must be sllowed to say as few wont. mu-.- --- --- n ' 'r" ""'J "" ignorance say words. There was one, perhspe, that might be applied to himself if he et- tempted to quote Cheshire proveibs--nemeIy, that he should be spesking to as much purpose As it goose slurring upon iee." There was one proverb in this city which was It local version of another common proverb, When n dsughter is stolen, close the Peppergete. This was an allusion to an ancient Mayor, who was probably well known to all in the room. There was en- othei ssying, "He is es idle as London : dog, that leaned against the well to `i ls. In the Fen country they had a saying, which they sp- pliedto e men with no taste for like Hot Dsvies s ball, that tossed the ddler in; to the tree." The French hsve s saying, "It iss. sorry house in which the cock is silent and the hen crows. A common saying in Lancuhire those who helped them to` rise, they did not know which way to turn. There was no pines more prolic then s hlecksmith s shop in senten- tious sayings. For instance, "Some men sre born hammers, end others are born snvils, "If the hammer stn'kes hud the anvil lens the longest, and this saying came true of some men, "Ones he was s. hammer, sndnow he is -n n .11 run. 3., - - -- music, He is` It has been suggested that the govern- ment of Oytsrio. or rather its immigration dopcrlllunt; should put itself in communica- tion with thturiona co-operative associa- tion: uhhliahod throughout Great Britain, And through theoanaocietiea diifuse tho neces- sary information oncerning agricultural Iottllndnt And employment of labour in- Canada The suggestion has its value, and - :1 our provincial nnthorities seam now to be fullynlivo to the deiirnbilitfof giving every anm'|u'I-Ann:-{aunt tn.

The truth is that the great increase in the value of land has entirely changed the character of our street architecture. We are no long- er contented with a two or three storey of forty or forty-ve feet deep :with a yard in oh. .-.... m\-- L '* *- ,- ._.......-.-:u. N D II: 110 l0ng" yard in the rear. The building must be run up to four or five storeys. and as the whole ground has to be covered, the necessary re-' suit is an immense at root from which new will not fall by gravitation. The result of course is that in certain weather there is I great accumulation of snow, sometimes of great weight. The height of the walls again is of-course a cause of weakness to them, unless they are strengthened. All this is, as we have said before, a new mode of house-building to which we are not accustomed, and which, therefore, involves new architectural prob- lems. For somewhat similar reasons iron is now becoming generally used, and should until we are better acquainted with its pro- by of note, and that is the dimculty which must exist in case of the in than part of onrlpresent lofty buildings, to w ioh we are somewha afraid that it will be found i.........:._._ . proportionally l -..... .. um uunculty which our present Iomewhn be found impossible to convey water.
