MADAME PAROUA.
Glowing Pen Picture Il Sa BILE Rival OF Anna
Dickinson.

Dickinson.
A Cincinnati reporter thus delivers himself: -
Madame E. y. l.. ParQua, who lectuted last
night at the Temple, was born on the Island of
Hayti, Her father was Carib Indian of Hayti,
and her mother negress of Madagascar She
therefore unites in herself the blood of two
races and of two hemispheres. Her father was
a sea captain, and commanded n vessel in the
African trade. He saw comely young negress
at Madagascar, and, becoming smitten with her
charms, took her home with him and made her
his wife. A few days after giving birth to her
first child she died. Mrs. Parquas father was
killed IN one of the revolutions of the country,
and the lecturer is the last of her family
Mrs. Parqua is apparently about twenty-five
years of age, q widow, and about the size of
Miss Anna Dickinson. She somewhat resem-
bles Miss Dickinson in the earnest yehemence
of her manner, but the black sister has more
musical voice than the white one, and is more
of a natural orator. In complexion, she resem-
bles Cuba Ska dark olive, clouded in
spots. She has wealth of very black and
glossy hair (not wooD which curlsilike the ten
drills of vine, and hangs over the back brain in
a tangled yet graceful mass, forming huge
natural waterfall. The high cheek bones and
straight nose proclaim the Carib blood, while
the large mouth and prominent teeth are de-
rived from Africa.
The lady was arrayed in fashionable robe of
changeable silk of orange and green, which well
suited her complexion. The sleeves came a little
below the elbow, and, being wide at the bottom,
allowed the frilled undersleeve to be seen. She
wore very large lace collar, fastened at the
front with yellow bow, and her waist was en-
circled by yellow ribbon. Her feet were en-
cased in thick soled leather shoes, and her dress
trailed behind, after the style of Miss Anna
Dickinson, but not SO stiff. A chemse with
heavy frills at the bottom and petticoat of red
flannel were occasionally visible. Like Miss
Dickinson, she spoke without notes, and used
no desk or table. She wore white kid gloves,
and spoke with a foreign accent some words.
Her enunciation was clear and distinct, and at
times she became quite eloquent when speaking
of the wrongs of the black race.
The audience was quite meagre, there being
less than hundred persons in the hall, and
these were principally colored with small
sprinkling of white ladies and three or four
white men

A BUXOM LAWYERESS.
Miss l.. BarItnIo Becomes n Member of the
Western Hur.

Western Hur.
The St. Louis IimRS of the Goth inst. says:-
The strong-mnded women who have been in
cessantly laborng for years to secure q recogni-
tion of their rights are in measure reaping
their reward. The State Senate gave them an
engrossing clerk, and the board OF water COM
missioners recently added Miss Clap to its staff
as q clerk in the water rates Office. Long before
this the Government acknowledged their claims
by appointing two ladies-one of them Miss
Redelia Bates (Mrs. DR.. Fischer)-a notary
public. Yesterday Judge Knight travelled a long
distance in the path of progress by issuing
license as practising lawyer of the st. Louis
bar to Miss l.. Barkolo, astudcnt of the st. Louis
Law School. This, we pretty reliably in
formed, is the first instance of this kind that
has occurred in this country, which is un-
doubtedly the most progressive of all civilized
nations in the treatment of the woman question.
The Missouri female suifragists should certainly
take encouragement in the success of their CO.
laborer.
Miss Barkalo is native of Brooklyn, New
York-as was Miss Bates-and is n woman of
more than ordinary ability. Two years ago,
after having read Blackstone and other elemen-
tary law books, she made application for admis-
sion as student at Columbia College, New
York, where she was peremptorily refused.
Nothing daunted, however, she came out West
and settled in st. Louis, where she was admitted
without difficulty to the st. Louis Law School.
For eighteen months she had been assiduously
devoting her energies to the study of the science,
and her fellow students all agree in declaring
her by far the brightest member of the class.
That there is no question of her ability was
shown yesterday at the examination, where she
promptly and correctly answered every question
propounded to her. Judge Knight, although
overfowing with gallautry gave the lady no
! quarter. The most abstruse and crudite ques-
| tions were propounded to the applicant, but not
once did the wise juage catch the fair student
| tripping.
Miss Barkalo is about twenty-five years of age,
of a buxom figure, amiable and really intelligent
| face, and large and expressive eye. CThis is
| a figure of speech-she has two.) She is now a
member of the st. louis bar, and considerable
interest is manifested to witness her maiden
effort.
