Toe ball of the Sumter Cotillion Club last night was a grand success and will ever be remembered by those wbo participated as a "thing of joy," for a thing of beauty is a joy forever. This wa3 a magnificent spectacle to the onlooker; tbe beauty of the ladies, ornamented by the rich and tasteful cos tomes; tbe gallant men, the Pythian Knights of South Carolina, tbi3 grand old State; the bright lights and the gay music blended to? gether most harmoniously, and all this was reflected to the eye cf the spectator a3 the march began. The dancing commenced at nine o'clock and the large bali room could scarce accomo date the gaests of tbe clob. Waltz after -waltz, quadrille and lancers occupied tbe time until 12 o'clock, when light refreshments were served, after which the German was danced. This moat graceful dance was directed by by Messrs Irving Ryttenberg, R F Jackson and Eogene Ingram, who are masters of Ters sicbore's mystic art, and who introduced many beautiful figures. The gay spirits of the company and tbe bright smiles which illumined the countenances of tbe gaests aod members of tbe clob cannot be portrayed by peo and iok. "All went as merry as a marriage bell" and and 'twas not till near rosy moro that tbe music was silenced and the guests departed. At no time was there less than 20 to 25 couples oo tbe Soor dancing, and tbe number present is estimated aa being from 200 to 250. A dance or other entertainment could be nothing else than a succ?s under tbe chaper? onage of Mr and Mrs F M Spann, Dr and Mrs Archie China, Capt and Mrs A C Phelps, Capt and Mrs L S Carson. Mr and Mrs H M Sanders, Mr and Mrs H C Moses, Mr and Mrs S H Moses, Mr aod Mrs J H Levy, Mr and Mrs A J Moses, Mr and Mrs C ? Dennistoo, Mr and Mrs A Moses eil of whom were present.

After the adjournment of the Grand Ledge Knights cf Pythias, that gf nie: body, visited the ball, and their presence aided much to the dignity and pleasure of 'he occasion. There were so jery many gentlemen present that it was impossible to mention tbe names and addresses ot ail. The Cotillion Club ha3 every reason to con? gratulate itself. The ball was a delightful success, and the many visitors, in whose honor the ball was given, who graced the oc? casion by their presence, made the assurance doubly sore that the efforts of the members of the CotillioD were not in vain. It will be many a day before such aootber ball will be given io Sumter, or such another gathering will assemble around the shrine of Terpsichore in this city. The ball was a success. May aotbiog but pleasant memories hover around tbe recollection of it ! Course of Cotton. NEW YORK, May 23.-This was another active and remarkble day in cotton, the market advancing during the forenoon to the highest point yet touched in the face of enormous liciuidation of long cotton In the afternoon, on reports of better weather in the South, offerings be? came more abundant and a decline of about 14 points from the highest I followed. August opened at 7.18, j advanced to 7 29 and declined to 7.16 and closed at the lowest of the I day with the tone barely steady. We shall doubtless have a lively specula- j tion with frequent setbacks like that of to-day, but the friends of colton are so numerous and so confident that any very serious break seems unlikely. We expect that the gene? ral trend of prices will be upward and favor buying on declines and taking profits on rallies. RIORDAN & Co. Say!
