iutcomplishmeiits is the sagacity

The Charlotte Observer seems
to have got the best of the consol
idation. We noticeUhat the hy-
penated paper adopts the metro
palitan plan in not printing the
names of its editors.
The palatial house of Wm.
K. Vuuderbilt iu New York, Mon
day evening, was the scene of a
fancy dress ball, which . for it.-
splendid- effects, lavish costliness
and brilliaiitcompany is said never
to have been equaled iu thit, if in
any country, and whose combined
attractiveness might have cxcitei
the envy of the age of Louis Qiiiuze
or cf the courtier in the palmiest
days of the Alhamhra. "This ev
ening," says one correspondent,
"when the rooms were, as bright as
day, when the strains of Lauder's
orchestra and the perfume of banks
and boqnets of roses filled the air,
when millions of dollars in jewelry
glittered, and New York's proud
est and handsomest families, in
-9
powder-and wigs, mingled in the
minuet and the quadrille, the scene
was more than the writer of the
"Arabian Nights ever dreamed of.
The cost of the eiitertainment-ha
f been wildly u ndergncsetl and ex
aggerated. The costumes probably
cost, on an avarage, for the 800
guests present, about $100 .apiece,
though some i them fan into the
thousands; the wine and the re
freshments, the latter being pre
pared hy the combined army of
Vanderbilt chJs, perhaps $15,000.
The flower 'would probably cost
$5,000, and the music, favors, ex
tra service, waiters, etc., etc., prob
$10,000 more. Many of the guests
went earlier than usual to avoid
the crowd and to see the company
arrive. By 11:30 the rooms were
Xull almost to discomfort. The
halls and passages had been turned
into a garden scene by dense
masses of palms and ferns, while
the beds of roses set round the
rooms in every available space
were the costliestever seen in New
York ROUTn CAROLINA HTATI8TICH.
