A pretty Device.

--Among the attractive features of the illumination last Friday night, was a mansion, in miniature, with its numerous windows lighted up, at the establishment of Roper & Murray, on Gevernor street. A figure of a soldier stood guard in front, and a card explained to passers-by that it was a model of President Davis' headquarters in Richmond.
