She was a Mis- sissppian by birth and related to several generals of the confederste and Egyptian service, and is still a very beautiful woman of the slender Spanish type. As she ap- peared the other day, making some after- noen calls upon ladies in the same hotel where she is staying, she was the striking figare of the ocession. She wore a long black velvet dress, an immense black Ru- bens hat covered with black plumes, very long black g oves and carried a large fan of black ostrieh fcathers, which, in its graceful motions, seconded the wonderful play of her large dark eyes under the thin arching brows. She held a whole com- pany of lady’s spellbound and fascinated, and that is the last and most erucial test of any pretty woman’s talent: ——— UONNUBIALITIES, Tf you can’t uwrry a woman of sense, young man, warry 4 woman of dollars, A TLondon reporter recently _eloped with a girl worth only $40,000, "Newspzper men muet be poorly paid on the other side, A soldier numed Pradier, who dio? recently at Awroux, France, was i century old before he macried. and ho lived with his wife eight yeurs.
