night, the 10Th, complimentary to
n. Il. Sledgc and wife and John S.
McGchee and wife. Cross's band
from Memphis had been engaged
for the occasion. At 8 o'clock the
guests we're assembled, and such a
collection Of beauty and superb
dress was never witnessed in Como.
Mrs. n. r. S. presented Il fine ap.
pearancc in black velvet court
train over white satin petticoat,
studded with pearls. Mrs. J.. S.
Nee. was simply b%ewitching, dress
Of garnet silk, square neck, with
lace relief. There were other brides

%pearanees. Among the lady WISH
tors from a distance your scribe
noticed Miss Blanche f., from

bronze plush, which was most be-
E coming to her style and dignity +;

a magnificent appearance, dressed
t in pink brocaded satin with trim
mings Of Spanish lace and crimson
. flowers, and the Misses L., Of Bates
vile, Of our own county, were
r here, dressed in blue and rcd plush
! velvet indeed they wcre charm
+, ing, so say the boys here. There
, were so many who made fine and
r attractive appearances that your
! correspondent is satisfied that he
: cannot do justice in the premises,
!, but will say hat he left the Hall
!, at u o'clock, and the last order
c was, con with the dance; let joy
e be unconfned," etc.
: Christmas has come and gone
= and the many pleasant memories
] connected with it cluster around
Q us, causing us to regret its depar-
r ture while welcoming the advent
Of the new year. In looking back
G upon 1882 who among us cannot
sec wherein they could not hays
better improved their time? whoI
among us has lived as ho should
have lived, and "done unto others
Ms he would have them do untoI
him" and who, while knceling
this good night Offering up prayers
! Of thanks to the givcr Of all good,
can say with sincerity, the great
! cst Of all is charity"
