MAY CELEBRATION.-For weeks the yo ing folks in our vicinity have been on Iho qui cioe about that May party that waB to come oil' on tho l?th. Great wore the prepara!'ona, long and deep the consultations ; immense the slaughter of muslin, gauze, and tarleton, ribbands, lace and spangles; but glentor than all was tho anxiety to procure a cornucopia of beautiful flowers. Tho long-ex pected day carno at last, and with it a polite in vitation from the ladies, under whose auspices tho party was given. Tho appointed hour fonnd us at the Hall of tho Freundschaftsbund, eagerly awaiting the raising of tho curtain. Tho Pension of Mesdames GIRARD and DOWELL containing many pupils, tho number of invited gnesta was proportionately large, and the Hall hot and crowded in eonscquence. But, notwith Btrnding this drawback, ovory one seomed to enjoy themselves to the full extent of his or her capacity for social happiness. Bot it were time to bo done with preliminaries, And proceed to the main feature of tho evening's entertainment, vi//. the coronation of the Queen of May. A dialogue between several of the younger mem bers of the band preceded the grand ceremony, in the course of which the beautiful little fairy queen mado her appear anco, and charmed'all be holders with her sylph-like grace. The raising of the cur mia gave us a glimpso of the realm over which she held away, and her at tendant fays with their glittering wings, flitting about like so many humming birds. But soon fairy land vanished at the appearatico of the peerless Queen of May, who, with grace and majesty, ad vanced down the long Hall, her train borne by two charming little sprites, and surrounded by hor at tendant maidens, each, as thoy passed na, appear ing more beautiful and lovely than the preceding. There waa an infinite variety of oostnme, all so pretty and tasteful, that it would be difficult to say which moat elicited our admiration. Each in its kind waa perfect. Their hair was beautifully dressed and ornamented with tho choicest flowers, exquisitely arrayed. Her majesty was elad In roboB of tho purest whito-in rogal simplicity which set off to advantago hor natural loveliness, that would havo been marred by gem or jewel. Sho descondod tho dais, and took her seat upon the throno; after which the grand cor o mon y of coronation took place. Tho several flowers then carno forward to acknowlodgo and do homago to their sovereign, which thoy did in a graceful man ner, and soft, poetio strain. Tho ontiro programmo was arranged, and the dialogue? and poema all written for this occasion, by thfcV.'-dr' !<|a,ughter 0f tbo Muses, Mrs. 8. C. BALL, til o talented authoress of tho much-admired "Jacket of Grey." Mr. DAUB-'a Band was jn attendance, and atruok np tim ?i?ocpre' lively notes, whloh were kept timo to by many twinkling feet. Wo left about ten o'clock,-soon after the danco had o .muonced, ?nd therefore are nnablo to give the further par tioulora of the programme. Altogether, this waa the moat pleasant reunion it baa been our good fortune to attend in a very long timo. Young and old hore mot on common ground, and all wero pleased to bo children to gether onco moro. Wo Baw many old familiar faces thore, until then loug uneoon.

BACIIMAN UKFOBE THE LADIES' ASSOCIATION TO COMMEMORATE THE CON FEDERATE DEAD.-The Bow Dr. BACUMAN delivered tho following beautiful address tho othor oveniog before the abovo Association, at the Mills Uouso : Ladies: I feol very highly honored for your too favorablo opinion in selecting mo to preside over a mooting called by youraolvos, for which you do sorvo ab the credit, as you will havo all tho labor and oxponso. When our brave dofondora were lying in our hospitals Bick, wounded, and dying, I remember that many of you wero there uuratng the afflicted, writing letters for them to their ab sent friends, brought to them nourishing food and cordials; when they died yon wroto lot tors of con doi onco to the mourning relatives. During that disastrous war I viBited nearly all of the Confeder ate States, from Mississippi and Arkansas to Mary land, and from the seaboard to the mountains, and I found woman everywhere the samo; full of patriotism, ?sympathy, and untiring devotion to our bravo soldiers; urging their Bons and brothers onward to the battle-field; striving to pr?vido clothing for them whilst in the camp, and working with their needles to support the families of the absent soldiers. The war has now onded; but whatever may have bean the result of the war, wo ?atill owo a debt of gratitude to our brave defend ers; whatever may havo been tho conduct of tbe soltish and unpatriotic, our Boldiera and our ladies performed their duty. And now those who mourned over tho soldiers when they died, are mooting together in every portion of onr land to ?trew wreathes over their gravos, and bedeck their tomlin with laurels. I havo read with prido and with pleasure tho account of the demonstra tions of tho ladies of Virginia, in memory of Stonewall Jackson, and all our great battle-fields aro beginning to be converted into cometeries, where tho traveller may stray and indulge in con templation. In "Eurone you everywhere meet with these memorials to tho patriotic dead. In Eng land, tho great chief*? have found a resting place in Westminster Abbey. In Franco, Pero lo Chaine, one of the most picturesquo, romantic, and invit ing spots on earth, id daily visited by thousands; wholo villatros iu tho suburbs of Baris obtain a livelihood by manufacturing wreathes to bang on tho monuments and spread over the graves of the departod and beloved friends. The churches of Germany aro bung round with tablets with the names of those who died for their Ling and Fatherland. It may, perhaps, be questioned by some, whether these demonstrations are alto gether proper, sinco force of circumstances have compelled us to return to the Union, and those who laid down their lives in defenoo of their rights and liberties are stigmatized as rebels. To this I would answer, wo contonded for a groat principio -the right of Belf government; a principle for which our fathers fought and bled. Washington was proclaimed an outlaw and a rebel-he was successful, and then waa hailed as the Father of his Country. Want of success is no evidence of wrong; the Christian religion was opposed by tho heathen and the Jew, and its blessed author was condemned and crucified-it caused rivers of blood to flow; it was not established for ages afterward. The Protestant Reformation in G er man v pro duced the thirly years' war; the wifo of Luther was obliged to go barefooted and a beggar, but finally succeeded. England did not gain her Magna Charta and her bberties until ages of struggles with despotism. Franco has beon steeped In revolutions. Switzerland and Germany are free, but Poland and Ireland are not. God's ways aro dark and mysterious. I believe that in principle the Routh was right; be this as it may, WO aro in duty bound to i ornum her the patriotio soldier; ha atrnngled. and died for his country. You have met for the purpose of scattering the memorials of your gratitude and affection over his grave. You may do it openly-no enemy dare not molest you-grief is respected even by the savage You need not go in the dead of night, as the poet Young did in France, when his daughter was denied Christian burial, and the father said: "With pious sacrilege agravo I stole." When our blessed Saviour visited "the mourning family " (the sisters of Lazarus), one of them liad gone to tho gravo to weep, and be (the Saviour) also wont; it was then he proclaimed the doctrine of tbo resurrection and tho life. And, when the Havionr himself had been laid in the tomb of Joseph of Aritlimethea, the pious Marys carno with sweet spices to embalm the body. Go on, mv friends, in honoring tho heroic dead; wo will cherish their memories, and,, whon tho gnaves shall give up their dead, we hope to meet them again. PROVOST COURT, May 1C_United States vs. Tilomas Grogory, Joseph Mitchell, Geo. W. Thomas, Jesse Nash, Marcus Smith, and Joshua Dovinf?, all colored.-Burglary. J. LOWENSTEIN, sworn, stated that on Saturday evening last, at half-past seven o'clock, there were two colored men in his store on Morris Island; they had been there beforo that evoning (cbout six o'clock). Was ready to close the store; waited till these two men should go; closed the doors, leaving the two men inside. Somo persons work ed at the door, "told them they could not come in, as we wanted to take our supper. They cursed, and demanded admittance. I barricaded the door with a trunk; but they broke open the door and came into tho atore. One of thom had a pistol, silver-plated, in his hand; he jumped on the coun ter and pointed it at me. He then began to curse and swear; I bogged them not to disturb me, as I was a poor man and had nothing to lose. They all then swore at me, and ran up to the goods; at tho same time some tore off the roof and frone of the honee. One threw a handful of sand on the lamp and upset it. Others threw sand at us, but it did not go into our eyos. They then put out the other lamp, and broke it. A pistol wets fired in the store at the samo timo. It waa then dark, all the lights in the store having been put out. We were overpowered, and had to let them do just OB they pleased. They took every bit of goods, and carried them off in trunks and boxes. They loft four heavy trunks they were unable to carry off. "I recognize Joseph Mitchell as the one who pointed the pistol at me. I recognize Jesse Nash and Marcus Smith as two of those who broko open the store. The gooda I lost were worth from $1500 to $1G00, consisting of watches, Jewelry, dry goods, clothing, etc., and between $600 and $800 in cash. I got a trunk, two valises, nine or ten hats, four or five pair of panta, somo paper collars and a little jewelry in the trunk, which was broken open; found them on the beach. The Colonel de tailed three othcera to look for them. Whon we got thero, three men were oarrying one of the trunks. The defendant, Thomas Gregory, waa ono. The Captain hailed him, and took bim pris oner. "We found in a boat, near Fort Sumter, a valiao containing somo pants, collars, jowolry, and one pioco of calico, and some other articles; also found somo small baskets and a carpot bag, all filled "ith different things, taken from the atore. I recognize all theso defendants as taking part in this affair at the store. They were captured in a passenger row-boat; saw them throw things over board, all of them; cannot say what they throw over. But I succeeded in recovering some of the Jewelry, which ia now ruety.
