A very pleasant juvenile party came off yesterday at Mr. Heath’s, on the occasion of little Lizzie Heath’s birthday. Quite a number of her young associates were present to extend to her their congratulations and well wishes, and to engage in the juvenile sports of the occasion. The stars and stripes were displayed, Union songs sung, and other demonstrations of patriotism made, clearly proving that their youthful hearts beat true to their country. We gratefully acknowledge their remembrance of the printers.
