State Female Coll &c Another
Strong Plea for Kosciusko.
LorrsvlLLE. Mss. April II, 1884.

LOUISVILLE, Miss, April IL, 1884.
EDITOR CLARION. desire to say word
in favor of Kosciusko, as a suitable place
to locate the State Female College. / be-
lieve that no better place in the State could
be selected for said College, for the follow
ing reasons:
Kosciusko is centrally located, in a
healthy and pleasant portion OF the State.
There is an abundance of good, pure water
in and around Kosciusko. Good water
is great blessing, and has much 20 do
with the promotion of good health more
perhaps than any other one thing. The
surrounding country is composed Of good.
productive soil, and furnishes Kosciusko
with plenty of country produce, OF the
very best quality, at very reasonable
prices, 50 that an abundance OF supplies
Tor the able could be procured by the Col
lege, and so eheaply, as to enable to Stew
ard to furnish the very best of diet for the
girls.
The people OF K ,sciusko are NOR al, and
society is good. They are neither very
rich or very poor, but are generally in com
Portable circumstanees-justt the condition
to promote happiness in community.
They are a chureh-soing AMI church sup
porting people. They attend church we'll
and all other religious institutions. Few
places have better Sunday schools than
they do in K0sciusko. They are well at
tended and we'll conducted.
Although Kosciusko has but one rail
road ii is not inaccessible, because said
railroad connects with the great Illinois
Central at Durant, and the eastern end OF
the G., A. & n. K. 4. will soon be COM
pleted TO A berdeen, when it will cross the
Mobile and Ohio r. r. at West Point, and
through those two great lines OF railroads
connection is made with all the principal
railroads of the State, so that Kosciusko Is
really as accessible as almost any other point
in the State This being the case, cannot
see how the commissioners of said College
can fail to give Kosciusko favorable con-
sideration, hope that they will consider
her claims as they deserve. Other thing
being equal, the central location OF
Kosciusko will certainly go far in IN
fueneing the committee to locate said Col
lege there.
Some other places may, and no doubt
will be able to offer greater monied con-
siderati,n than Kosciusko can do, but this
shonId have little bearing, as the State IL
able to pay all necessary expenses for said
College. Still Kosciusko can and no doubt
will pay as much as ten thousand dollars
as a monied indueement to have said Col
lege located there. No better place can
be found in the State for the State Female
College than Kosciusko.
Respectfully,
GEO. Y. WOODWARD.

We call the special attention of our
readers who follow the pursuits OF agri-
culture and horticulture, to the advertise
menl Of "The Dudley Cotton Moth Exter-
minator,' which has been recently patented.
Mr.. Horace Handy, the General Manager,
had one of the Exterminators on exhibit
ton in orr Office few days since, and
satisfied us that the long-felt want for the
determination OF worms had been found.
1t is most ingenious contrivance-so con-
struc.ed that the lamp is protected from
the wind by a revolving cap. The flies and
bugs b ing attracted by the light, drop into
the fluid that surrounds the lamp. One Is
sufficient for FIVE acres. The price is only
seventy-fye cents. The patentee il Pres
byterian minister, who resides at Crystal
Springs, and is native OF Jackson. The
Exterminator will be manufactured in this
State-so that it is home invention and
a home industry throughout.

The Concert at Clinton.
JACKSON, April Is, 1884.

JACKSON, April Is, 1884.
EDTToRs CLARION: Your correspondent
accepted an invitation from one of the Ia
dies Of Clinton to attend the annual concert
OF the Central Female Institute last Friday
evening. The entertainment was given in
the Chapel Of the Mississippi College, and
was indeed treat to all lovers of music
That something especially good was ex-
pected was attested by the large attendance,
the hall being well filled with people
whose evident culture pronounced them
competent critics and an appreciative
audience. Their approval was signi6ed
altogether BY the offering OF flowers, as DIR.
Hillman discou-ages the customary noisy
modes OF applaus The bouquets sent up
to the young ladies were numerous
enough 10 bear very decided testimony,
and, If the beauty and taste displayed in
ore-arranged combinations were valuable,
the compliments conveyed were indeed
very high encomium=. Our only criticism
here is that some OF the young ladies who
did not get these fair offerings, we thought
were entitled to them. For lack of space
we forbear to mention the programme a.
We had intended. Enough to say that the
proficiency shown in both vocal and in
strument4l music must have been very
gratifying to Prof Menger who has charge
OF this department, and the decorum OF
the pupils and the audience not only spoke
we'll for themselves, but evidenced by their
difference to the request of the president
the great Respect in which he is held in
school ard community.
/ shall only make one suggestion, and
that is to our Jackson people: an evening
could not be more pleasantly spent than by
running down 10 Clinton to enjoy any
one OF the musical or literary entertain
ments of either OF the institutions located
there. The schedule is so arranged "a to
make such a pastime quite convenient.
One can reach there at 6 O'Clock AMI leave
for the Capital at ten the same evening.
This reminds us of very pleasant literary
feast promised fer next Friday evening in
the nature Of an anniversary exercise OF
the Hermenian Society of Missis- ippi Col
leee. 1t is needless to say the writer viii
give himself this pleasure ii possible.
Yours in haste, ARcAY JAY.

"A Very Pretty Town. "

Hon Matt PARROT, President of the
Iowa Press Association, thus writes to
his journal, the Waterloo Reporter:
Jackson, the Capital of Mississippi, is a
very pretty town, eligibly located, and we
Judge good trading point. Several Of the
State institutions are here located, and
there is an air of thrift and prosperity very
pleasing. The homes, too, are surrounded
BY trees, bushes and vines, covered with
bloom, and very attractive TO the eye. The
State House is an old-stye building, and
while lacking in the elegance of mod
ern C1pitols, is comfortable, roomy and
well-arranged. We had the pleasure OF
an introduction to Gov. Lowry, fine
looking gentleman, with courteous ways,
who expressed his pleasure at meeting so
many OF Iowa's representatives. We found
the State Library in charge of a lady
Librarian, and she spoke in warm words Of
praise Of our Mrs. NJ ,xwrll, who she said,
had the reputation OF being the model libra
rian OF the country. The halls of the SEN
ate and House We're inspected and looked
very much like the halls of our old State
House alter an adjournment.
Our visit in jackson was brief, bat
thoroughly enjoyable. All the citizens
with whom we came in contact were cour-
teous and kindly, and OF all the Southern
towns we saw there il not one we would
rather settle down in than the Capital
