Laura Carter Holloway is y blithe
little singing bird of the Brooklyn
press. She is a steam engine in min
iature-writing night and day, and
determined to succeed. She can make
/ reports, write paragraphs, disguise
puffs, point squibs, and crack jokes.
Her age is twenty-One, weight sixty
seven.
Miss Buchanan,Of the Chicago Post,
is young woman with intellectual
head, full of ideas, active, industrious,
a heroine of hard work, and the crea-
ture of a predestined and foreordained
career of distinction and success. She

Mrs. Jennie June CrOly, the litera-
~ associate in the Modern Thinker
and the Graphic, and the chronicler
of those fashionable fOibles in other
/ ladies which she disGains to exhibit in

woman who has fought the battle Of
/ life with alternate victory and de-
| feat.
SaIlie Joy, Of the Boston Pos, shows
US a cOuntenanee full of good feeling,
/ eyes with catholic and charitable
meaning in them, ,and a temperament
! predispOsed like q mountain stream

vital and magnetic. There's no stop

air of SchOOley's Mountain, and blows

Mary Clemmer Ames continues her
winter pieces from Washington to the
independent. She bears q strong and
sisterIy resemblance to the celebrated
Joseph Howard, Jr. Her book on the
Cary sisters was eXcellently good and
desperately bad. Her autobiography
is not appended to her carte de Uisite,
and we get no additional insight into
her character from any accompany
ing handwriting. But the handwTi-
ting of busy writer is very decep-
tive. Poe placed too much reliance
on it. Walter Scott said that his own
handwriting had been spoiled by copy
ing law papers in his early years.

Middle Morgan makes cattle reports
for the Times. HeighO! This is new
employment for a woman! do you
say2 Yes, but Middle is like Charles
Kingsley's Mary in the song-she
knows how to ''call the cattle home"
Her father was an Irishman who
had charge of a rich mans estate, and
she interested herself about the cattle,

Laura G. Bullard is the injefatiga-
bic correspondent of three or four for
eign magazines, among them the Vio-
tOTiG of London and the COTnelid Of
Florence. From morning till night
she is busy in philanthrOpic, literary,
or artistic enterprises, a leader of so
ciety, a writer of forthcoming novels,
and a frequent literary reviewer for
several American journals. She looks
like an Italian countess, and signs her
name with delicate chirOgraphy un-
like that of strOng-minded woman.
Anna Mcdowell, of the Sunday Re
public, in Philadelphia, conducts in
that paper department devoted to
the interests of women, and writes
out of a good, earnest heart, speaking
the truth as she believes it, blunder-
ing frequently in her judgment but al
ways right in her intent. We suspect
she must have reached her twenty
sixth year.
Mrs. Gildersleeve LOngstreet, the
author of "Mrs. Lofty" writes indus
triOdsly for number of Western pa
pers, and is one of the most pains TAX
ing and reliable of correspondents.
Her sons are proud of her, her readers
rejoice in her, and even her photo
graph flatters her.
Myra b. Bradwell earns handsome
living in Chicago by editing the Le-
gcL NeICS, a paper which, for the ac-
curacy of its law reports, is gradually
becoming an authority with the bar
Of Cook County and elsewhere.
Lucy Stone,Of,the Woman'S Journal,
sustains to that paper the same semi
editorial relation which Susan b. An
thony once held toward the Revolu-
tiOn, before the Rev. DR.. Bellows be-
came the exclusive editor Of that
swallowed sheet. Lucy is not much
of writer, and yet when her blood is
up she cOntrives TO pour a good deal
of the glow Of her spirit through the
point of her pen. Her husband, how
ever, is the strongest writer on the
WOHldn's Journal on the topics which
that paper is specially designed to pro-
mote. But Lucy's pen is her own,
and she uses it and earns money with
it, and is an Asteroid. She is thirty
one, or thereabOuts.
Mrs. Hester A. Benedict is photo
graphed at full length, in walking
costume, with bonnet, veil, muff, and
all the fair and furry armOr in which
fine lady fortifies herself against the
rude assault of Jack Frost. She looks
as handsome as a princess. The auth

bread winning instrument from Phila-

permanently at work, having already

Mrs. Pearsall, who disguises her
name under various signatures, and
who shines IN sparkling and audacious
anonyms, now as feminine and now
as a masculine critic of musical con-
certs, and of the great singers and
players, has a face full of individuaii-
ty and pOsitiveness, a burning and
wiIlfuI eve, and a mouth that knows
how to give the word Of command.
She is the daughter of Mrs. Elizabeth
Phelps, the WOman's Rights exponent
Of TWenty-third street. BY a happy
freak of nature, she and her mother
are twin sisters. The united age is
forty-fOur.
