NEW YEAR'S DAY.
Since the IIkram) greeted lis nu-
merous readers tho new year has
dawned and we are all launched upon
tho great ship of 1887. Tlio festivities
on Now Year's eve during tho day
and New Year's night were numerous
and very enjoyable. Tho grand event
of tho season was tho ball at tho Mor-
chauts Exchange in which thoHcbrc.w
ladios nud gentlemen had a glorious
time. There was a very largo number
present. Tho preparations had been
ample. The toilets were unusually el-
egant. Without going inlo detail It is
but fitting to say thero havo been
few 8iicl. entertainments over given in
litis city that equaled it.
Tho supper givcu by tho ladies at
engine house No. 2 was a sumptuous
one. Tho ladies did themselves much
credit in tho taste displayed in thesur-
rounding'. Thero wero quite a largo
number present and all thoroughly en.
joyed themselves.
It would bo useless lor tho reporter
to attempt to describo the scenes even
if ho had time and space seen on New
Y'ear's day nt tho diflorcnt residences
whero thero wero receptions. There
wero only a few who received but
'theso ombraccd a wido range. In tho
'fow places hundreds of young ladies
I wero present to assist in receiving and
fiiitortainiiifir tho callers. Tho toilets
on tliis occasion wero in many in-
stances full dress and of exquisite
stylo and richest material. Those
who wero fortunate in calling will
long remember tlio very pleasant New
Year of 1887.
Tho reception during tho day aud
entertainment at night at tho Y. M.
C. A. rooms wero unusually pleasant
and enjoyable. A very largo number
of ladies assisted in receiving during
fio day and at night tho entertain-
ment by the members of tho Century
Club was excellent.
There were a number of very pleas-
ant private parties given on this occa-
sion which wero of a most entorlaiu.

las gave itself up to somo featuro of

No matter how much one may differ
with Gen. Holler's philosophy it is im-
possible says The .Win York World to
remain in his presence lor any length

his conversation. Possessing a won-

facility of expression coupled with u
peculiar egotism that niizht bo oflensiva

vulgar but never dull.

claimed an admirer of his recently.
"I don't know hu wouldn't bo Butler

a friend said: "General what in tho

"Yes partly" he replied. "I lived

tempt should l e made. A couple of
howitzer wero fastened in tho rigging
of tho Hartford and a man stationed at
each one. From this elevated position
the lookouts could command a 'good
view of the custoin-housn and tho
town. They were instructed at tho
first ind cation of an attempt to haul
down tho ling to tiro their guns. A
broadside from tho Hartford would
follow and this would bo the signal for
tho whole licet to open fire on the city.

ficers and men rushed upon deck and
