Gen Fitzhngh Lee says: "I kaow Polk Miller well. When he is sketching the ‘foe de war’ negro, if you did not know that he was Polk Miller you would think he was a darkey of olden time, and if yon didn’t know he was an old- time darkey yon would think he was Polk Miller.” Mark Twain in introdneiog Mr. Miller at.the Madison Square Gar den concert Hall, New York city, said: “Mr. Miller is thoroughly competent to entertain you with his sketches of the old-time negro, and I not only commend him to your intelligent notice, bnt I per sonally endorse him. The stories I have heard him tell are the best I have ever heard.” We could give many more such notices, but these are sufficient. At the court house Thursday night. Performance begins at 8 o’clock.

BY STEW PAN. miss Rogers’ Entertainment. The most enjoyable society event of the season was the Yiolet Te.a given by Miss Nell Bogers Tues day evening, at the lovely home of her mother, on* Washington Ave , in houor of her charming guest, Miss Barfield, of Unadilla. At 9 o’clock the doors were thrown open| to admit the guests, the leading members of the social set. The floral decorations were beautifully artistic in their sim plicity. The hall and parlor were daintily perfumed with the odor from many lovely sprays of the Yellow Jessamines. The diniDg room was profusely decorated with the modest violet, and as the coup les assembled to partake of the ele gant repast, the ladies in tbeir dainty evening dresses and the gentlemen, handsome and gallant, the delicate violet glow from the lamps which was cast oyer all, made up a perfect picture of artis tic beauty. Probably the most enjoyable feature of the evening was the music, by Miss Laeson and Miss Cooper, -also the Cornet Soioes, Schuberts Serenade—and a selection from “The Bohemian Girl,” by Mr. E. H. BraseltoD, which were thoroughly enjoyed. Mr. Braselton is certainly an artist in this line, and the selections last night were especially appropriate for the occasion. The guests v£ry reluctantly took their departure in the wpe - sma’ hoars’—all voting Miss Bogers a charming hostess. April 4th. Reporter.
