    CITY BITILLEIVEN.
Tait Magernmenon. MASKLD BALL. —The Oa
alemy of Music never presented a more brilliant
appearance than it did last night on the occasion
of - the annual hal masque pf the Maennerchor.
Notwithstanding the heavy snow storm which
prevailed during the entire afternoon, there was
ao exceedingly large turnout, and people began
to enter the building before eight o'clock. The
parquette circle and balcony wore soon filled
with ladies, variously attired—some in rich and
costly ball-room costumes, and others in fantas
tical dresses, while the lobbies were, filled with
male masqueraders, representing almost
every imaginable character. The interior of the
Academy vas batidsomely decorated. The upper,
tiers were beautifully festoorted with red, white
and blue bunting. At the centre of the Weedy
was the City coat of arms, and above it, in front
of the , family circle was a banner enstribed
"Carnival, 1868." The dancing muste Was:Uptatt
ono side of the stage, ' under the direCtiOn of parts
.Sentt„ - and the promenade oand,untlee theleadee.'
s h ip'of Theodore Hermann was located oppoiiite.
The footing woe kept clear of intruders until the
close of the grand match.
A little after nine o'clock, the curtain rollettup,
and* magnificent scene met the 'epee of , those
Who were seated in the front of the hens& The
entire stage was filled with the members , of the
society and others, ,all in costume, and properly
arranged for the 'opening ceremonies. The
grand march then began. A. 'company pf the
Gray Reserves, excellentlyArilled, and accom
panied by 'two drummers, led. off. Then fol
lowed the , Master 'Of Ceremotrieti,' In 'Roemer
costume, ' rid* , hobby.horse; his,' adjutants
mounted e.olorsial butterflies. A Puuchin- ,
silo came next, followed by the leader of the
band as ifeizebub, attended by a train of !sixteen'
dernene.' The ten floor manag - erstmade capital
Ittieniaixettiralislerts of the ttme of Peter the Great.
The members otahe Lobby Committee followed,
as Cositacka, heaVily bearded, and the car or
Printe,,arnival 'was drawn by a team Of six
clowns carrying needle-guns. An &I:plumes fol.
lowed v bearing a flag inscribed "Wairussia," and
after filin cal ie a great block of lee'drawn by po- '
far bears, with an infant bear on its top. A rat;
kee carrying the deeds of the State. marked
"$7,000,000 contract," and a Russian with a bag
to hold the cash, made up this part of the pie-,
tare. - 'A banner,' inscribed "'Paris Exposition,"',
was next in line, and Louis Napoleon was seen
wader it canopy, of ,crinoline, upon a litter borne
, by the Eroperors,of Austria and;'lassie, the King `-
of Pritashat, and, the Sultan. The froskauer
Guard came next. They were the attaches of
the - cetera of the. evening, and waved) paper
truiripets with ludicrous - effect. Thb general
crovd of maskers, conimising counts, dukes,
,clowns, military officers of ahnost every nation,
peatiant ,girity'qpakeresses, beers, court-ladies,
,te.e.„brought up . the rear. The processioe was
very grotesque in appearance, and, being exceed.'
ingly well managed, suecessfully went through
various difficult and in terestiag mancenvres, to,
the great delight add aniusemeut of the audience.
The ball was now fairly opened, and' the or- ,
chestra struck up one of Strauss' 1111 C waltzes.
This was the signal for those who had been mere
spectators. to join iu . the festivities,' and the"
dancing floor became very lively in an in
credible , short space of time. The regular pro
gi armee of dances, alternating with promenades,
was then gone, through with, occupying the time
until nearly 4to'clock this morning. Everybody
wasjovial and happy. Those who were spectators
enjoyed the eXtellent, musical selections of both
orchestra and promenade band, and were highly
amused by the pranks of some of the fantastical
figurtl'e upon the" - stage, while those fond of
dancing had a good time generally. it s

A HEAVY Snow-STORM.—The snow which fell
during yesterday morning was succeeded by a
disagreeable, drizzling rain, which continued for
several hours. This bid fair to convert the streets
into slush-troughs, but about dusk the wind
changed, the atmosphere became chilly and snow
commenced to fall again. During the entire_
tight the flakes continued to come
down in an , exceeedingly lively
manner. A stiff northwest breczeprevailed, and
the bard little pellets were driven pitilessly into
the faces of the few people who were compelled
to be out, causing a severe, stinging sensation.
Such a dismal. stormy night is rarely witnessed
in this city. The hack drivers were out in full
force, in consequence of the Milunerchor ball,
and had a very rough time otit. Iho passenger
railway cars were crowded to their fullest capa
deity in the early part of the evening, but later
the trips became "few and far between," and on
most of the roads ceased altogether. Until nearly
. daylight this morning the wind continued to
howl, signs creaked, and window sashes
rattled. The snow, all this time, came
down Unceasingly, and owing to the
heavy drifts, canoed by the driving wind, was
piled up preVy .high in exposed points. This
morning the city is enveloped in a coat of white,
and the merry jingle of the sleigh-bells is heard
i n
all directions. The passenger railway corn
- papies,having provided themselves with meal - tines
for clearing the snow from the traake, have not
been much Inconvenienced by the storm.
All the cars are running about as natal.
The trains on some of the railroads corn
ing into the city have been delayed some
• what by the , drifts, but there has been no very
serious detention. To-day the sun shines
brightly, but has not caused much of a thaw.
The sleighlug is exCellent, and this afternoon all
the reader itr the rural portion of the city will be
swarming. With light cutters containing buffalo
robed Individuals, male and female.
A NEAT Carruar, OF THlgNucs.—This morning,
between twelve and one o'clock,as Offiber Charles
S. Smith was passing Ninth and Arch streets, he
was informed that tbree thieves had just been in
the restaurant and had gone up Arch street.
Smith strolled out Arch street, and observed the
men take'a wallet from the pocket of a drunken
inan,and go under a lamp post for the purpose of
-examining it. The contents consisted of some
" Irish Republic" bonds, which, ' having
'the appearance of greenbacks, caused the fellows
to become somewhat elated with their success,
and they went to a saloon at Ninth and Market
.streets.,. Smith followed, and, summoning three
poliopen to his assistance, arrested the three"
men., The prisoners are named Winfield Iluber.
Napoleon Brown, alias French Pete, and Leonard
Davis, alias Red River. All are known to the de
tectives as old thieves. They Will have a hearing
at the Central Station this afternoon. After they
left the restaurant at Ninth and Arch streets, a
coat was missed, and it is supposed that they
_made way with it.

CITY NOTICES
A WONDFItnn: INVENTION FOR HEATING Eoi
inors.—We yesterday examined one , of the most, re
markable inventions of the age—a most ingenious
contrivance for beating, cooling or ventilating build
ings. The inventor and patentee is-Mr. N. Parrish,
of Kalamaioo, Michigan, and the title of his inven
tion is and Cold Air Generator." That 'it ac
complishes what is claimed for it will he apparent to
all who will call at the celebrated Rester and Range
warehouse of Mr.J. S. Clark,No.leaS Market st.,where
it is now in operation for a few days only,for the benefit
of the public. The patent for the invention was ob
tained December 17th, 1661, although the papers had
been tiled for that object more than twenty-one years
ago! the delay In granting the patent having been in
consequence of some English report being tllcd at
Washington of a similar character. Through this ex
traordinary delay, the country has been deprived of
an article, the value of which can hardly be overesti
mated. It consists of an arrangement that can be at
taclaq.to any ordinary heater, the effect being to
force a continuous volume of fresh air
np between the hot cylinder and casing, which, be
coming heated In its passage, warms an apartment ,of
almost any size in an incredibly short time. As an
economizer, it fs unparalleled. The inventor guar.
maws that by means of his appliance he can heat a
dwelling throughout with one-eighth the quantity Of
fuel that is ?tow consumed in warming a few of its
apartments ! In other words, a building which is now
heated at an annual expense of eight hundred dollars.
con be heated by means of Mr. Parrish's invention for
for one hundred dollars. The hot air thus obtained 13
APO of a purer and better character, for obvious rea
sons. Of the means by which it is introduced through
the heater, we can only say that it is accomplished by
mechanism, by means, of a pendulum fan, which,
wound up, will run from two to twenty-four hours, as
desired. And when heated air is not required, the same
agency will send a circulating stream of cold air, and
thus maintain an agreeable temperature In the warmest
either. It is a perfect ventilator. All who are in
terested in the development of sclenthic machinery
should ,g 0 and see it. We learn that capitalists are
taking hold of it In various parts of the Union already,
and the stir it is making in this and other cot:a
menities is likely to become a. furore.

EARNINGS OF THE COMPANY.
41 At truant!, the profits of the Company are derived
.iionly from Ste local traffic. but this Is already much more
athan etifficiexit to pay the interest on all the Bonds the
;Company lame, if not anther mile were built. It la
'net doubted that when the road la completed the through
-traffic of the only line connecting the Atlantic and Pact.
cfic States will be large beyond precedent.and as there will
:ibe no competition. It can always be done at profitable
rates.
It will be noticed that the Union Pacific Railroad Is, ha
fact, s Govenment Work,. built tinder the auperviition of
Goveretneet- oaken, and to a -large extent with Go.
vernment money, and, that' its bonds , are issued WNW
Government direction. It Is believed that so efmitar
security is so carefully guarded, and certainly no other is
based upon a larger or more valuable property. As the
Company's
FIRST MORTGAGE, BONDS
are offered for the present at 90 CENTS ON THE DOL.
LAB, they are the`cheapost security in the market. beinit
more than 15 per cent, lower than United States Btoclou
They Pay '
