Throughout the scene the handsome uniforms of green were con? spicuous, and la the dance and promenade seemed equally appreciated and esteemed by the fairer portion of creation. A large number of gentle? men guests were also present. Upon the stage at the further end of thc hall were Muller's brass band, and the dreamy waltzes, Inspiring quad? rilles and exciting polkas with which they r.galed the company, stirred the blood or allagca and be? guiled them Into the dance.

The '-20," as Robin called lt to Cato Gabriel, who did not know numbers, had a large rent in lr, and Catj reiused to take it. After fome persuasion from the crafty Robin, he took lt and left. A rew days aro Cato carried this bill to af torc to parchase groceries, and was informed by thc shopkeeper that lt was a five dollar bill. Thun? derstruck, he appealed to several reliable persons of his acquaintance, who confirmed the shop? keeper's statement. He applied to Robin, who swore it was a $20 bill that he had glvea to Cato. The matter was referred to Trial Justice Magrath, and, in spite of Robin's asseverations, the torn bill and the evidence of several witnesses convicted him of breach or tni3t and defrauding thc prose? cutor of $15.
