Hoi Rallichoroi

The opening of the Bethel House
in Columbia upon Thursday night
of last week was one of the most
noted events that ever occurred in
our sister city and the occasion
was made more brilliant by what is
said to have been the most elegant
hop ever witnessed in that center of
fashion pleasures. 1t was given I'M
der the auspices of the Hoi Kali
choroi, an organization of beautiful
dancers-elegant chivalry and re-
splendent beauty-whose recep-
tions, absolutely inimitable, have
not only made them famous, but
constitutes one of the glories of
Columbia, the gem of Middle Ten
nessee. Pulaski knew what it was
to be from having been there before
and she sent up a handsome dele
cation in the persons of Mr.. Clifton
Rodes with Miss Eleanor iSpoford,
Mr.. Newton White with Miss Book
Mason, Mr.. Will Rose with Miss
Susie Alternately, Mr.. James Bow

at the depot with carriages and con-
Quoted directly to the splendid no.
tel, and from the moment of disem-
barking to that which brought
them back they were the recipients
of an assiduous attention that was
overwhelming in hospitable ele
gance. The dancing was superb,
of course, and it consumed the
whole night in exhausting its exhil
erations, and the scenes of fashion
able attire, loneliness and trancen-
dental brilliancy upon all sides
were in keeping with the superb ar
rangements of the new hotel. The
supper table is said to have been
the most gorgeous ever seen there
and was spread with an elabora-
ton of beauty and taste that ut
terly abhorred cost. Those who at
tended are unceasing in their
praises and count themselves fOrtu-
nate in being among the favored
many who shared in the delightful
pleasures so lavishly provided by
the beautiful dancers of Columbia.

This Means Business.

Mr.. j. B. Childers announces his
purpose in a card in this paper to
apply for a charter for the Bradshaw
turnpike, and calls for those who
desire stock and are interested in
having the road built to subscribe
at once with him. 1t is no idle
project when such q man takes hold
and if those who have expressed a
desire to take stock win now do so,
its success follows. This project
has needed for some time only q
concert of effort. This can be
secured now, and at the same time
have a man at the helm who knows
no failure when he determines upon
a business venture. Let the Brad.

A We1l-Bestowed Tribute

At the regular annual meeting of the
board of trustees of Martin Female
College held at Pulaski Tennessee, this
May Both, 1882, the following resolution
was adopted:
ResolUed, That inasmuch as Miss
Bette Burgess, manager Of the hall
and teacher of mathematics, will, with
the close of the present session, sever
her connection with Martin College,
we deem it due to her to extend to her
the sincere thanks of the board of
trustees forthe earnest, conscientious and
faithful discharge of the duties of her
important position, and we freely and
cheerfully recommend her as lady OF
rare attachments and cultures of extend
ed experience and marked success, and
as fully competent and eminently fitted
as a teacher and disciplinarian.
1t was ordered that the president of
the board tender Miss Burgess copy
of this resolution.
The above is true copy from the
minutes OF the board of Martin Col
lege trustees. JNo. S. WILKES,

pemocrats. Heed These Words,

Next Monday is the day for the
meet in primary to select delegates.
One word of advice. Do not COM
pliment anybody by sending him as
a delegate. 1t would be wise to
select new men-men who have not
been leading you around by the
nose and running these meetings to
suit themselves and friends. Send
good, honest, sensible citizens, and
you will thus get the best. We
want coolheaded, thinking, consid-
crate, moderate men. And when
you get to Pulaski go into the con-
vention and select the same sort of
men to go to Nashville. Leave out
the politicians and leaders. This
is no time accompaniment men. And
when you have done this, adjourn.
Do not instruct them. If you will
select the right kind they will not
need to be hampered with instruc-
tions. If you start the discussion
of COG or 50-4 or 1873 or 600 at
this early date it will be red-hot by
the Goth and men will go there with
their opinions so riveted and fixed
that they will not be prepared to
compromise or harmonize. This is
to be a democratic convention, met
to secure democratic success. That
is what it is for. 1t is not a state
debt convention. Delegates must
go there with the will and the pow
er to meet their fellows on compro-
mise ground. If you instruct them,
how will they do it? Nashville is
the widest place in Tennessee on
this question, and yet the conven-
ton there last Saturday was as har-
monious as any that ever occurred.
Low takers and high takers were
not known. They were all demo
Gratis, and they go uninstructed so
they may have full liberty to meet
their brethren ON the best terms pos
sible. Primaries should select the
delegates to go to Nashville from the
districts. Don't leave it to the chair
nan or a committee Of the conven-
ion to do. Let each district bring
Up its delegates and propose them

The announcement of the open

one Of the most pleasantly located
places in the south-retired and
pleasant. The terms are the most
moderate of any we know of, and
then. from experience we know that
the table is kept in the very best
possible manner. 1t is always
loaded with the very best substan-
tials and the proprietor has learned
what kind Of an appetite the waters
impart and how to satisfy it, and
he does so with a prodigality that
repels all suspicion of stint. Ifyou

Martin College Commencement.


Martin College are now in progress.
The past three days have been con-
sumed in the examination of classes
of all grades and in all departments,
conducted in systematic order and
intended to show exactly the stand
ing of pupils and the methods EN-
ployed. Patrons have expressed
great qualification at the exhibition
of progress and the exercises have
been such as to demonstrate the
correctness of the mode of teaching
and the thoroughness of training
that pupils are subjected to. The
examinations have been witnessed
by fair audiences. The chapel has
been beautifully decorated for the
occasion, the walls exhibiting some
of the art specimens which would
do credit to. the studio of master.
Miss McMaster is wonderfully pro-
ficient with the brush and pencil
and her pupils catch the inspiration
of her genius in a marked degree.
In the several departments it is
made manifest that the teacher has
done her duty. Mrs. Blaisdell in
elocution and modern languages,
Miss Burgess in mathematics and
English branches, Mrs. Griffith upon
piano and guitar, Mrs. Rose upon
piano, organ and vocal music and
calisthenics, Miss McMaster in art,
Mrs. NJ. Z. Jones as matron and
assistant in English department,
are entitled to special praises. On
Tuesday night the chapel was
literally jammed with ladies and
gentlemen who witnessed the pre-
sentation of the beautiful little
operetta entitled
THE TWIN SISTERS,
in which Miss Lizzis Black and
MISS Minnie Regenold sustained
the leading parts, supported by a
perfect host of little and larger
Young ladies as playmates and Gyp-
sizes. 1t is beautifully conceived

Queen by the Gypsies, her sojourn
