Mariana is delightful place of about
thirteen thousand inhabitants, and situa1
ted at the mouth of LAnguille river, al
beautiful stream. It is the county seat
OF Lee county, one. of the richest agri-|
cultural counties in the State, raising
10000 bales Of cotton yearly. We were
astonished to find such fourishing bus
ness center at Mariana, and number
OF pleasant and cultured people have
their homes there. We had the pleasure
Of meeting our old friend, Col John M.
Hewitt, that polished gentleman who is
so beloved throughout the State. He
owns two of the finest plantations in the
county, about three or four miles from
Mariana. Mrs. Hewitt, the daughter
of the late COL Waldrow Howard, of
Memphis, will be pleasantly remember
ed by our ladies, as she has spent two
winters in Little Rock while Col. Hewitt
was member OF our legislature. We.
also met Mr.. P. Brown. former
member of the legislature, and young
gentleman who took quite a prominent
part in society while here.

The Anniversary Exercises of the

day evening in the handsome new build
ing which has been recently erected.

The enamelled glass vases are now so
deliberately decorated that it is hard to
see why they are less artistic than por
celain, although the manufacturers of
china are rather condescending when
speaking it. The shape and color is
good, and the decoration, which is some
times in two layers, is executed with
wonderful fidelity to Nature. Moreover,
that velvety bloom Of leaf and flower,
which cannot be reproduced in china, is
50 perfectly initiated in glass that it
seems ready to be disturbed by the touch
of a finger,

During our recent visit to Helena, the
charming little city by the side of the
"Fdther of Waters" we had the pleas
ure of renewing our acquaintance with
many of the charming people who re-
side there. Among them we particu-
larly admire Mrs. John King, first
cousin of our Mrs. w. L. Terry. Mrs.
King is noted for her graceful hospital
iy, and she is always the center of a
bevy of ''rosebud girls, = her guests.
Helena is fortunate in possessing so many
agreeable gentlemen; among the num-
Der Mr.. Ned c. Hornor, Mr.. w. M.
Neal, DR.. Hayes, Mr.. Paddock, Mr..
Powell, Mr., Keesee, and others too nu-
merous to mention.
In spite of fire, wind, rain, and flood,
Helena rises like the Phoenix from the
ashes; and the handsome new brick
buildings rising above the debris of the
late disaster testify to the energy and
enterprise of her citizens.
The cotton all through this section of
me country, in Phillips, Lee and St.
FRANCIS counties, looks remarkably fine,
and II the rain does not continue too long
'ne planters anticipate an abundant crop.
Miss Sudie Polk, who visited Little
muck TWO years ago, the guest of Mrs.
ClarleS Martin, resides in Helena, and
'"e Misses Polk are the toast among the
gentlemen.
Mr. and Mrs, E. D. Pillar have re-
'eluy erected handsome new house.
"nch is quite an ornament to the city.
WIS., Quarles, whose guest we were
"'lle there, will leave soon for Los An
ST'eS, Cal., where she will visit Mr.. and
MRS. w. R. Burke this summer. Mr..
s s"u Mrs. u. Greenfield Quarles, with their
Il. 'S' little daughter, Lucille, will spend

The graduating exercises of the Ar
Kansas Female College took place
Wednesday evening. Miss Susie San
noner, the salutatorian, read an essay, en-
titled 'Let us be Merry While we May, y
which was exceedingly good, and met
with much applause. Miss Lizzie Cal
laway read next an essay on "Truth, +"
which was excellently written and de-
livered. Miss Julia Zimmerman next
chad the floor, and her essay, entitled
"Cobwebs,' was very good, indeed.
Last, but not least, Miss Nan Cohen
read the valedictory of the class, entitled
"Clouds, in a clear and distin voice,
much appreciated by the audience.
The floral tributes were very beautiful
and unique, and the picture of the
"Sweet Girl Graduates empowered in
flowers is one not easily effaced.
The diplomas were presented by Mr..
ID. q. Zones, and the Rev. Mr.. Miller OF
the Methodist church addressed them
in a very happy manner.
