Benefit for the Laboratory Sufferers. – Some young gentlemen of this city will give a ball to-night at the Market Hall for the benefit of the unfortunate sufferers by the explosion on Brown’s Island. They anticipate a pleasant entertainment, and hope to see those who are fond of the dance, promising to do all in their power to give enjoyment, and at the same time relieve those who were injured by the late accident.
