Mrs. McriWcli,cr.

! AS previously announced, Mrs
Mcriwether, of Memphis, came uI
last Sunday, and delivered two o
her matchloss Lectures, which were
highly appreciated 10y large and en-
thusiastic audiences. Her address
on Sunday night was reply To that
oft repeated objection of the anti
prohibitionist, that +" Prohibition does
not prohibit" She took up their ar
gumcnts one after another, and with
the two-edged syord of truth, cut
them TO the core, and under the
light of reason, logic and ire
sistible eloquence, held them up,
stript Of all fallacious sophistries,
and in a mastery manner exposed
and replied to them all, to the per-
feet satisfaction Of her auditors, who
showed their appreciation by fire.
quent bursts of applause.
Her theme on Monday night was
Woman's Rights or rather,
more strictly speaking, "Woman's
wrongs" and bore evidenre that she
was woman Of broad culture, deep,
clear and incisiye thought, and
thoroughly in earnest in her efforts
to remove some of the legal and So
cial barriers that have hcdged in wo-
mans sphere for ages, and have I'M
justly debarred her from many priv
ileges that were hers by right Divine.
The thanks Of the community are
due to Mrs, II. q. Dunayant for the
rare treat of Mrs. Meriwcthcr's visit,
as it was by her invitation that she
came; and we hope that in the near
future she will find it to her interest
to come again and stir up the tprgid,
stagnant waters of the mental and
social life of Osceola. We feel that
we cannot better close this notice
than by quoting comment made by
the Boston Herald, on the occasion Of
her lecture in that city, that she is
One Of the brightest, wittiest, and
most eloquent of speakers"

Thus it will be seen that it took
nine men, or the whole committee to
rulc candidate off, and in the event
of II disagreement, the HiRe were to
call in an outside man TO decide.
Instead of this, the Williams and
McGavock men. six in number, as
sumed the right, III plain violation of
the above agreement, to decide the
whole matter. Messrs, Hale, itous-
san and Rozzcll, not understanding
siae to mean SIC, proposed to call in
the outside man, but the six refused
in violation of the above agreement,
and refused every proposition made
by my referees; then they took their
hats and left, and the six (one Of them
a minor) declared for McGavock. 1t
seems to me that fair and honora-
bic agreement, such as we entered
into, should haye been met in a bet
ter spirit, and should have been car
ried out to the letter. OF this, the
people must judge, and ! am willing
to trust their judgment, If the peo-
pie Of. Mississippi county are satisfied
to accept the choice of the six men,
and elect him, ] have not u word to
say, only that a most unfair and ille-
gal Interpretation was put upon the
terms of the agreement, entered into
on my part in spirit of fairness and
self-sacrifcc, and as n means Of unit
ing all factions upon some acceptable
man to represent the county. In
any event, fcllow-citizens, am now

DEAR SIR:
AS my term Of Office will expire
on the lst day of November, it is alb
solutely necessary that your Annual
Report be in this Office at the time
prescribed by law, that ! may have
time to prepare my Annual Report.
Please see section 40 of the School
Law. Urge your Directors to report
to you promptly, as my Report can
not be delayed. 1t would be great
misfortune for your county to be left
out.
Let brief history of free schools,
in your county, showing growth of
public sentiment, and general i'm
provement in teachers, attendance
and school-houses, accompany your
Report. Prepare with care, as it
will appear in my printed Report.
DO not neglect this, as | want each
county in the State represented.
Very respectfully,
JAMES l.. DENTON,
State Supt. Public Instruction.
The above is a circular letter to
County Examiners, and explains it
self. Let me urge upon school Di-
rcctors throughout the county the
Importance of sending me their re-
ports on time, that is, between the
lst and 10Th of September, in order
that their districts may get their pro
rata of the State school fund. A
failure to make the report is an in
dictable oilense,

WRINKLED FACES.

1t is a painful. sight TO see young
ladies in their teens with wrinkled
and prematurely old faces: never
theles, 1t is quite common, and to
any one who observes the tendency
of the times the reason is very ap-
parent. Owing to flaming adver.
tisements and bogus certificates, in
which are used the names of emil
nent physicians and chemists, the
unsuspecting and credulous have
been induced to use some Of the So
called liquid beautifiers, all Of
which are known to be positively
injurious, and if used for any
length of time will destroy the
complexion, 30 that 1t will be next

The Empress Eugene, five and
twenty years ago counted one OF
the handsomest women in Europe,
is said to be badly broken down.
Though still young enough in
years, the once rich and glossy
nut-br0wn tresses are faded white
by grief and reverses of fortune.
The transparent beauty of feature
is spoiled, the frame curved and
wasted. Latterly her health has
been fast falling, and the gloom
which fell upon her life after the
fatality in South Africa rises at
long intervals, so that she remains
for days confined to her cham bsr.
The accidental fall on the stairs in
her house In the West End still
further shook the weakened nerves,
and, although 10 bodily injury to
speak of was sustained, her health
has suffered since a great deal.
The constant visits from mem bers
offhe royal family of England are
among the greatest comforts the
lonely and eXiled sovereign pos
sesses.
