"Old Dog Tray" barking fiercely at the door, proclaimed that "Somebody's Coming" and in marched "Yankee Doodle" wrapped in the "Star Spangled Banner" and leading by the hand a rare and radiant maiden known as "Columbia, the Gem of the Ocean." A noble-looking, well-preserved, old gentlemen by the name of Columbia, who, on account of his hale and hearty appearance, was called "Hail Columbia," followed Mr. Doodle and kept a bright eye upon the voung woman, who was doubtless a relation of his, on her father and mother's side. A spacioui walk back of the mansion, paved with "Shells of Ocean" led to "The sea, the tea, the open sea. The broad, the blue, the ever free," and on the teach stood A Dark Girl in Blue" wringing her hands in a frantic man. ner because "Jamie's on the Stormy Sea." As she afterward got into the ''Gum Tree Canoe" and signified her intention to cross "Over the Water to Charlie." I concluded she couldn't be much of a gentleman. My attention was here directed to a young man whn w&s on his knees before a piratical looking chap, who was about to pitch him into the sea. The young man pleaded, "Bury me n t in the Deep, Deep Sea," to which the piratical chap chanted hoarsely, "My name u Captain Kidd, as I sailed, as I sailed," and pitched him in. Captain Kidd acquired some notoriety for taking "Life on the Ocean Wave." A poor Swiss girl was crying, "Take Me back to Switzer land," and "Gafier Green' standing by re marked to his friend "Robin Buff," that he would take her back "If 1 had but a Thousand a Year." That he hadn't a thousand a vear must have beon ""NVearin' of the (Gaffer) Green." As I retraced my steps to the mansion, fearing thatthev would "Miss Me at Home," -r , . p 1. t 1. ..T'J l was met Dy a iemaie, wno ocgan, -x a Offer Thee this Hand of Mine," but I declined, sayine, "I'm o'er Young to Marry vet," and slipped away quite unmindful o her improper request to " Jleet me by jioonlight alone." Arrived at "The Halls, the Halls of Dazzlinc Lights." 1 found "Old Dan Tucker" too Tate, as usual, for hiaeven ing meal; relating bis escape from parties who, as he said, were trying to ''Carry me back to Old Virginia." He gave them the slin at the ' Camntown Kaces." where he "harnessixl up tho mules" to tho 'Low Backed Car" and made his escape from "Wav down South in Dixie.' Dan wore the Last Bose of Summer" in his button hole and created quite a sensation as he went ''Marchinc On." One despondent looking man was asked to join in the dance, but he said he couldn't, he was "Hard Up;'' he was afterward found cutting it gay in an Irish jir at "Finne-r&n's Wake" and singing "Oh, ain't I Hunkidori," During: a lull in the dance, 'Ben Bolt" amused the company with the "Sailor's Hornpipe," The company broke up in the "wee sma' hours," and sought "Home, Sweet Home," while a num ber of jolly fellows "Coming Through the Bye" (put up in quart bottles) were singing "Ve Won't uo Home Uli Morning Every one present pronounced the party ''the finest of thn seaon.
