BELLEvIEW LETTER.

Our little town is exceedingly dull
at this writing socially, but all bust
ness is booming.
Corn planting is numbered with
the things Of the past, andthe farm
ers are now discussing the poor little
two-leaved tobacco plants and Won
dering whether they will be large
enough to plant in May or not.
Miss Joe Cox left several days ago
to visit her sister, Mrs. Howe, at Cal
TO, ILL.,, from whence they will visit
the Exposition together. She antici-
pated months leave of absence
from this neighborhood.
Several couples of our young peo-
pie attended the quarterly meeting
at the Methodist church at Montgom-
cry, yesterday and did not return
until after night. The quarterly
meeting of this district will be held
at Shiloh on the first Sunday in May.
Misses Lee Campbell and Lizzie
Cox spent a few days the last of the
week with Mrs. j. @. McGehee, at
Montgomery.
Our friend, Sam McGehee, who is
attending the II. II. S., was at home
Saturday shaking hands with his
many friends. Major Terrell inform
ed me not long since that he was
making rapid progress with his stud
les and gaining many friends in the
city.
On the evening of the 18th inst,
at the request of Mr.. and Mrs. j. r..
Green large number of their friends
assembled at their residence to spend
the evening, which 1 must say was
one of the most pleasantly spent of my
life. AT an early hour they began
dancing, and almost all present par
ticipated and seemed to enjoy them
selves as much as any young people
| ever saw, until 10 80 o'clock when
Mr.. Green interrupted their dancing
for while by announcing that sup
per was ready, which was a consid.
cradle surprise to the boys to whom
the party was given as they had ex.
pressed desire not to put Mrs
Green to that trouble, but | must
say never experienced more pleas
ant surprise as she had prepared
one of the most delightful supperl
that it has been my pleasure to par
take of.
After supper was over some tint

dancing was resumed until the "wet

MIR. LAwToN DECLINES THE RUSSIAN

WAsHINGTdN, April 2l.-Mr. Law
ton has declined the Russian Mission.
An intimate friend received tele-
gram from him to-day requesting
him to convey to the president his
desire to decline. 1t is understood
that he does this to relieve the pres
ident of all embarrassment, and to
avoid possible controversy liz the

that St. Petersburg was not partic-

American ministers had frozen to-
death in that frigid climate. lie
represented to him that the place was
not worth a cent. Lawton replied
that he had not come to fight for it
but on the contrary he had come tt
say to the president that he had como
to relieve him from all embarrass'
ment. lie did say this to the presi
ident the next day. The presiden
responded that he proposed to act ii
accordance with the opinion of his
attorney general, to whom the ques'
ton had been referred. This opin
ion was favorable to Lawton. 1t de
clared that the Andrew Jackson par
don removed Mr.. Lawton's politica
disabilities and that the fourteenth
amendment could not and did Ito
restore them. 1t is believed that Mr.
Cleveland would have acted on thi
decision had Mr.. Lawton not de
