The Ihpetonga, a social organization in Brooklyn similar in character to the Patriarchs of New York, held a very successful reception and ball at the Assembly Rooms, in Brooklyn, last evening. The society is composed of 50 gentlemen living on Brooklyn Heights. By its rules, which permit each member to invite five friends, the attendance at a ball can never exceed 250 persons. The restriction thus imposed practically confines the invitations to the Heights, the old Indian name for which has been selected as that of the society.

The maximum number of persons were at the ball last evening. Among them were Baltazzi Effendi and wife, Miss Howell of Newark; Mr. Bottassi, the Greek Consul to New York; Miss Scudder, Miss Hunter, Miss Tamaiche, W.T. Gilbert, Corporation Counsel A. F.
