Ions, complimentary TO the Legislature.
All arc invited" She explained further
that the concert was not exactly in the M.
tnrc OF o complimentary affair to mem.
bers OF the Legislature, many OF whom
were present, as it was customary at the
College 10 give an entertainment al the
kin on the last Friday evening Of every
month. Tho College hours were 50 taken
up with other duties, that the Young
lates found little time for preparation for
an entertainment OF the kind, aud the
lady hoped that the distinguished
gentlemen present would consider this
fact when thinking Of tho exercises OF the
evening, As tho young ladies were to give
a concert while the legislators were in the
city, they had invited them to come,
hoping to entertain them, and would feel
highly gratilled had they succeeded. In
regard to tho reception, Miss Taylor hoped
all present would remain and participate.

every young lady's education, and an cd.
ucation that does not include the social life
she considered lop-sided. 1t was her Gus.
tom, therefore, TO afford the young ladies
thus IN opportunity Of educating them
selves in society. In conclusion, tbs speak

tended a cordial invitation to all to remain.

piano the ever.bcautiful and touching
"Home, Sweet Home" in n way that
proved her an adeptin handling the ivory

lege life enjoyed by students and visitors
alike, and was enjoyed even to "yc locals"
exaCting satisfaction. In word, it was
what those parties at the College always
are-the happiest OF successes.
