their way to US by the hand Of a friend, who
assumes all the terrors OF outraged confidence
Ii giving them to the public without the con-
sent or knowledge OF the fair writer or the
young debmtante. The talented and graceful

had won the golden cross Of distinction at one
OF our most select Creole observation-disclosures. and
teachers and companions united In very
pleasant surprise to Miss Ada Fl. beautiful
floral tribute was accompanied by many little
tokens of affectionate congratulation. and
among others the following beautiful lines were
offered by her teacher and recited by one Of her
companions:
FAREWELL TO ADA.
Alb, Ada! you have reached the goal.
Have touch d he happy strand
And CLEAN like beac on light to show.
The Eel Dorado land
Fain would zoe follow In your path
A primrose path to YOU
Whom natures boon hath favor'd high
Among her chosen few.
Now summon'd from our simple realm.
To grace another sphere.
Success and Joy await you there
As they have found you here.
May every talent. virtue mild,
Which we have seen unfold.
Mature and blossom in the light
OF that pure CROSS OF gold.
0 let its talismanic art
Recall with magic powers.
Our happy school days. ever fraught
With joyous feeting hours.
