enjoyable home talent entertain
ments that We have ever had
the pleasure of attending, was
the concert given at Dowdall's
Opera House last night by Miss
Cariine Gates and her pupils in
music and elocution. without
question, The audience was one
Of the most refined and appre-
ciative that ever assembled in
Camden, and it is no small com.
pliment to Miss Gates and her
pupils to say that all were highly
pleased and lavish with cOmpli.
ments concerning herself and
her pupils. And those cOmpli.
ments were not unworthily be
slowed, for there in not within
the confines Of the entire South

plished, brilliant, painstakinl
and, withal, beautiful and Iowa

and the parents of Camden arr

of any one would be an injustic'
