The festal board was crowded, and frill justice was done to the rare dishes which were spread before the nu merous guests. After supper dancing was resumed, and it was in the wee sma’ hours when the parting came, it is seldom that we witness such u parting. Pleasure mingled witl sorrow there was pleas ure because all had enjoyed to the utmost the oc casion, and Tiorrow because there was such a thing as parting. If there is one thing that is more enjoyable than the old custom of now year’s calling and re ceiving, i; is a german given by the young ladies. And, when Columbus young ladies decide to give an entertainment, it is a foregone conclusion that it will bo a success. They eclipsed all pre vious efforts last night, and won the lasting gr.icitude-of all those who were so fortunate us to be present. •d the i mssed i life ami good ' but 1 t lasted ’hole ti apl.t e during a single i that the miknov. n eromu- largest •ed, fol- e have ks and s not coiilim <1 io thu whites, needy wherever found Her •ng while but no sr heard her ult ten she began to lime for her to launch into the grea was at hau l sho folded her arms over her chest ami. ubi .ting fully in the faith that she lived by, sin- passed over the river without a pang of sor- i row and not a doubt but that there awaited her I a home not made with hands, eternally in the I ( Heavens.
