assemblage Of the elite OF Rosedale society
and n number OF visiting ladies and gem
tlemen had gathered. The host, large
PLANTER and one OF the foremost members
of the legal fraternity Of Mississippi, and
his estmable lady, formerly Miss Yer
ger, received their guests with the digni-
fled grace and hospitality OF grand
seigneur and grand dame.
Rosedale Is noted for its refined society,
but it was surprising to the writer in a
place Of this size to find such number OF
beautiful and elegant ladies and gallant
gentlemen present. There must have
been over sixty ladies and gentlemen.
An elegant string band had been pro-
cured and it was not long before the larger
part OF the young ladies and gentlemen
devoted themselves TO the art OF Terpsl-
chore in the spacious hall Of the mansion.
This innocent and mind and health ele-
waiting pastme is much in favor with the
young people Of Rosedale, and judging
from the grace and agility Of the dancers
i. must be INDUCED in not unirequently.
While not being regular ball the toilets
worn by the fair ladies were exquisite,
tasteful and elegant. Much pleasure was
also derived from a charming performance
on the piano by young lady, accom-
panied in song and on the violin by a
gentleman.
Among the ladies and gentlemen pres
ent were Misses Hyazinth Mcclure, Bes-
sic Flowers, OF New Orleans; Lula Ander-
son, OF Beulah; Mary Valiant, Louise Val
liant, Of Greenville; M. Chiles, OF Terry;

The Echo Was There.

Taking about echoes, says the Savan-
nah News. Col. Dgeechee claimed that he
had one on his place a few miles from
Savannah, and that 1t beat anything he
had ever heard or read about: 1t was one
which would clearly repeat whole ,entenc-
es. The party of gentlemen were inter
ested, but incredulous. and arranged 70
accompany Col. Ogeechee home the next
afternoon TO test the wonderful echo.
The colonel found, an getting home,
that in the heat Of the discussion he had
claimed more than the facts jd-tliled
Irish laborer
Pat, SAYS he "some gentlemen are
coming home with he tomorrow after
noon to hear the echo. Now, want you

Now, do you thoroughly understand
that you are to answer back exactly what

"oh, Wis, sori We can depnd On me en-

Next afternoon the colonel took friends
to the river bank and all were ready for
the experiment
Making a trumpet of his hands the
colonel roared

The sunset is very near; | praY not yet
But the voice cried Mother. mother ~
without mindng him, though his hair
was now quite gray, and the tears were
on his face
Then the mother, who was already
drawn into the shade Of the dark avenue
and moving away with her arms still
around his neck, kissed him and said
My dearest, | am summoned and 90
And she was gone. And the traveller
and he were left alone together.
And they went on and on together, un-
til they came to very near the end Of
the wood, so near that they could see the
sunset shining red before them through
the trees.
Yet, once more, while he broke his way
among the branches, the traveller lost
his friend. He called and called, but
there WAS no reply, and when he saw the
peaceful sun going down upon wide
purple prospect, he came to an old man
sitting on fallen tree So he said to the
old man, What do you do here:' And
the old man said, with a calm smile, 81
am always remembering Come and re.
member with me"
So the traveller sat down by the side of
the old man, face to face with the serene
sunset; and all his friends came softly
back and stood around him The beauti-
full child, the handsome boy, the young
man in love, the father, mother and
children; every one of them was there,
and he had lost nothing. So he loved
them all, and was kind and forbearing
with them all and was always pleased to
watch them all, and they all honored and
loved him. And | think the traveller

cause this is what you do to US, and
