Tbls evening Is the time fixed for the formal
IrisiiKoration of the new ball of the Horticul
tural Hofilety, at the corner of Broad and West
moreland slreetH, a full inscription of which
was published In Thm Kvenino Tki.koraph
ct Monday last. At the time of our visit to the
scene this morning everything was In confu
sion, and this wns even worse confounded by
the nproar created by laborers of every char
acter, who are busy muting - the finishing
touches upon the luterlor ana exterior of the
Jiall. Hut the force of ladles and Kontlemen Is
large and cfllclent, and ere the hour for the
opening this evening arrives, order and beauty
Will be evolved from these chaotic elements. ..
THE DECORATIONS OF THB BALI '
lire extremely elaborate and pleasing. The
most noticeable feature is the gorgeous tropical
rene which flils the stage, a reproduction of
the bead-waters of tho Amazon. In the back
ground rise the i urple peaks of the Andes, in
terspersed with verdant plateaus and inlinlo
waterfalls. At I he base of the mountains, the
hesd-watern of the great river are seen winding
their way through an undulating country,
covered with a foliage of rich tropical tints. At
the point where the stream touches the fore
ground, there will he introduced a genuine water
tail, and the real Bohuylklll fluid will tumble
over s rocky preolploo. In continuation of the
mimic Amazon. On either side of this soene is
a tastefully arranged collection of evergreens
and tropical plan is, extending from the iloor
of the stage to toe celling.
At each side of the stage, on the main floor of
tbe ball, is a beautiful bower, consisting of
eight arches of evergreens, gathered in a droop
lug tult at the lop, and surmounted by a large
and handsome bouquet. Beginning with these
bowers. and extending the whole length of the
hall, nnder ach gallery, is a range of booths for
the dinplay aud sale of fruits, flowers, and fancy
articles in general. Encli boot h is decorated In
front by a triple arch of evergreens, ;a wreath of
the same material being suspended from tbe
gullery between the booths. The numerous
niches in the wall, as well as the posts in the
gallery railing, are made receptacles of large
urns containing evergreens and tropical plants.
' In tbe centre Mall, a large iron fountain has
been erected, and when tbe jet of water is play
ing In this, the whole scene will have a de
cidedly romantlo aspect. Tbe Interior arrange
ments arefurtber composed of winding tables,
which are soattered aboutfthe floor.
A full list of the variety and character of
artloles to be embraced In the exhibition has
already been published in The Evening Telb
obaph. But In addition to these we noticed
thin morning, a handsome set of firemen's
equipments which will be displayed by Mr.
Frederick V7. Mlgeod; and also a base ball and
bat, which are undoubtedly the handsomest
ever manufactured in this country. These last
will be nnder the care of Mr. Charles P. II ays.
Both tbe base bull and firemen's equipments
are to be awarded to tbe club and company
wblch receive the largest number of votes from
their respective admirers.
Huch are tbe tasteful arrangements for
TBE GRAND OPENING OF THE BALL Till.1)

The party will then make a circuit of the ball,

AMERICAN FINANCE.
ISTBRBPTIlfO DEHATB It PARMAHHCfT SPBRCHK8
BY MR. LA1NO AND MR. GLADSTONE WILL THR
TOLICY OF TUB UNITED STATE LRAD TO PROS
PERITY T
In the House of Commons on tbe evening of the
lftlh Instant, during a debate ou the English nallnnal
debt, Mr. Lalng said It seemed lo hlui that there ex
iHled a desire to do something sensational In the way
ot finance, ("Hear, bear.'' and a laugh.! Last year
an excuse was afforded by tbe apprehended exhaus
tion of coal, an apprehension that seemed to have
gone olf lu smoke. (A laugh.) This year tbe ex
ample of the United States of America was put for
ward conspicuously. He admired at muob as
any man the energy wftb wblch the enormous
war establishment of that country had been
reduced In a few months to a peace footing, and still
more the rplrlt wbleb made men a reduction possible.
Motlilng could be more honorable than the way la
wblch American orllcers had subsided Into simple
cltl.ens, earning an honest livelihood by peaceful pur
suits, tnnteud ol try lng to keep, up large armies aud
ferment revolutions, wltb a view of maintaining their
own influence, us war too often Ihe caie in Southern
Ameilca. Jlut, In looking al theexample of America,
the House mun be on its guard agninst fa'se compari
sons. In the first place, America bad adopted an in
convertible currency, which was heavily depressed,
aud no man or nation could be said to be really pay lug
Its debt as long ns tne currency stu"d at 26 or an pur
cent, discount. Then, again, nobody could doubt tnut
the customs tevenuu was levied not so inucb wltb
a view to tbe amount It yielded as for the purposes
ot pro.rction. Any proposals for reduotlon would be
oo oae'i by ihewholo naiuifiiOturlng interests of the
Mortli and 1 list In financial quealtous tbey must
never Jump too hastily to conclusions. Tbe saying
of the 4iei Ian snge that no one could be accounted
bappy before bis death, was applicable to all finan
cial experiments, and we bad nut seen the lastol suctt
experiments in the United Htates yet. The last ati
countbsbuwed tbatnndir this stimulus of Inconverti
ble paper currency tue cost ot living had Increased
lo such an ex'eot mat tbe working classes were
combining to get a higher rate of wages. And wbat
was the consequence? That lmponaut branches of
Industry were deserting tni Uulted Stites. (Hear,
near.) Ol course. It by no means followed that with
Us fertile anil II" mineral wealth, and the energetic
character of lis people, America wai about to relapse
Into poverty; but vital blows had certalulybeen struck
a, many brunches of nallnnal Industry. Take such a
branch as shipbuilding. Jleinre the war America was
one o! the foremostcoiintrles in the world lu the art of
shipbuilding, so important to her In a mercantile and
In a national seime. But sill building bad been to a
great extent driven away by those nigh, rates. Did
the extinction ot a poniou of their natiuual debt repay
them for the loss of a trade forming so material an
element In their mercantile and miiritlme greatness?
He thought not. (Hear, hear.) It was by no means
cieur that the policy nil mteil by till United status of
keeping up thvee excessive tHxes siuoe the conclusion
of the war would conduce to Hie ultimate prosperity
nrni.n.iioii . muoh m the more aotiur and mode
rate course lakun by this country at tbe close of the
grent war ot isl.t. (Hear, hear.)
Mr. Gladstone In answer to my honorable friend,
who so emphallcully asks us to rejocl this minion, I
would fay that It is not new-fangled, but old-fanirled.
It Is the proposition of the Chaucellor of tbe Kxcue
quer; and though I am not in bis contldence, I bough I
am not in any iullmate relations with bim as to this
measure. It seems rather hard that the right honora
ble gentleman should be accused of doing something
sensational merely because I have been so unfortu
nate as to wound my honorable friend by a reference
to America, I will not question how fur my honora
ble friend may be Justllied in imputing to me a de
sire to do something sensational as the basis of
tbe sclion which I took last year as a Minister
of the Crown. My honorable friend Is certainly
not the most charitable (hear) or the most compli
mentary In his supposition. I shall by-and-by In
quire bow far there are palpable and probable appear
unces to Justlly these suppositions. But nothing
can be more unjust than to ascribe to the Chancellor
of the Exchequer a sensational desire to copy tbe
United Mates, merely because I said that the United
Htaies were making a great effort to pay off their nn- ,
tional debt. My honorable friend understands the
afTr irsot the United (States a great deal better than
the people themselves, and he has therefore shown
that they have gone altogether abroad In tbelr oourse,
nnd that tbey would have acted more wisely If they
bad abolished all those taxes aud tn.iiia no effort what,
ever to reduce tbe amount ot debt. He may be right In
that opinion, but the probabilities are rather agulnst
bim. (Hear, bear,) There is a presumption that, wltb
regard to the management Of their domestic affair
the people of the United States would be as compe
tent .lodges ot the policy they ought to pursue as we
are. But when be says that there can be no Inference
Justifying us in citing ihe example of the United
States because ol'tlielr depreciated currency, he must
recollect that we began to pay olf our national debt
with a depieclated currency, a state of tilings which
existed long after the close of the war. (Hear, hear.)
Does my honorable friend mean tbe House lo
understand that customs din Irs are the grind-
clpal source ot American revenue T He must know
that the principal source of American revenue Is an
inland revenue ot an elaborate, and I admit, la
some eases, of a most vexatious character. But I did
not allude to the financial affairs of that coun
try with the object which my honorable friend's
observations might lead tbe House to suppose. My
reference to America was to show that a great nation
was making present sacrifices for a future good.
(Hear, bear,) But I take my honorable friend to
task altogether as to his charge that this proposition
Is beusiitfunal. Certainly, if I were inclined to excite
people's passions, I should draw a picture ofa widow
without boots trudging borne through tbe mud, in
consequence of the taxes on locomotion, and pro
pose repeal of those taxes rather than submit a
proposition for the reduction of the national debt,
(A lsugh, and bear, bear.) I confess that I think
the sensational qualities, the powers of pro
ducing sensation by painting and coloring,
exhibited by my honorable friend In bis speech,
equal anything I ever heard In this House, and are
far beyond any thing I ever aimed at or could succeed
In acquiring after I did aim at it. (Kenewed laughter.)
sensation baa reference lo tbe present; the reduction
of the national debt to the future. My honorable
friend's arguments go beyond bis concl islons. He
tells us that ws are prodniiiie sensations If we confer
benefits on tbe country, the full realization of wblch,
though not the entire, will be felt only by those who
are to live In the distant future; but bis arguments
go against our doing anything to reduce tbe national
debt.
