The Masonic Ball.—The late hour at which the Freemasons of Blenheim, and their guests, retired from the festive scene prevents our even attempting a description of its dazzling brightness—a brightness rendered doubly so by the galaxy of beauty which thronged the gay saloon. The glittering jewels and emblems which sparkled oh the masculine - forms of the brethren being fairly rivalled by the tasteful costumes and bright smiles of their fairer friends. The decorations were superb, and indeed the whole of the arrangements admirable. We may not now enlarge on the subject beyond stating that the first Masonic ball was a great success, and will long live in onr memory as one of the most pleasant occurrences.
