MIR. and Mrs. John II, Ricbarnso,,

The reception given by Col E. Richardson
to his son John p. Richardson on Thursday
evening was one of the most brilliant and
elegant affairs it has ever been our good
fortune to attend A very large assembly
of the friel.ds of the bride and groom paid
their respects TO the newly married pair,
and all seemed to be imbued with the spirit
of the occasion. The elegant costumes
worn by the ladies have never been sur
passed in our city, that of the bride being
one of perfect beauty. The supper pre-
pared for the occasion was of more than
usual elegance and, in fact, was feast eft
for the Gods.
The crowded state of our columns will
prevent our making an extended notice of
the above reception bu we will endeavor
to do it justice in our next issue.

1t may not.be generally known that oul
gallant Section Boss of the V. & NJ. Il. r.,
snd generous hearted and energetic friend,
Wiley Jones, has leased the Nelson House
of jackson, for term of five years.
Commodore Nelson has made this House
popular and household word to the trayl
cling public, but will devote himself here
after to cruises on the Gulf and honorable
and dignitied retirement.
Mr.. Jones is a worthy successor, and the
House will lose nothing under his admins
tration. 1t will rather gain in popularity
because Jones is live man, has hosts of
friends and is splendid caterer. The
House will hereafter be known as the
European Hotel. Last Sunday, by invita-
ton of the Boss, we. were among party
of gentlemen who enjoyed free dinner at
the European. There could have been
nothing richer or more apetizing. The
table was loaded with all sorts of sub
stantial edibles and relishes, prepared in
superb style, doing infinite honor to the
accomplished Steward, Mr.. George Smith.
Honest old Krug was the main beverage of
the feast, and the party did ample justice
to that. It was a royal banquet and
unanimous vote of thanks was rendered to
tho generous host by his delighted guests.
