[aOM AN OCCASIONAl, COIRE81'ONDENT.] RIDow.AY, Juno '25.-On Friday night last our town was onlivone by tho second of a series of charadoe and tableaux to which the pupils of Mrs. Simmons' school are troating the citizens of Ridgeway and vicini ty. Wo arrived rather lalto at th< hall and found, as is invariably tll( case, that it was full to ovorflowing the fair sex. being well represented It was with feolings of pride that w< saw so many young and beautifu faces that would do credit to any place. The entertainment begi with a salutatory from Maste Bolick, after which was read a con position by Miss Eloise Davis. Thi: was followed by a play in which th< idea of woman's rights was predomi nant. In one sceno, tho ladioe being absent, attending some moot ing, the poor "hien pecked" husban was left to churn and the son t< cooking "johnny cakes"-in whicl perfol'nanceo I need not say the: signally failed, much to the disgusi of the mother and daughter upoi their return. Charados, tableaux anl plays ful lowed, interspersed with conpusi tions-il of which were so goo( that we mako no discriminatioi among them. One of the play deserves especial notice, as havin, been composed by Mrs. S ---- ani presented for the first time to the public. The plot was excellent showing that "where there's a wil there's a way"-to improve one' self regardless of surrounding difli culties. The attention of th audience was hol till a late hour They were then thanked and dis missed by Master Parker in hi usually happy style. These enter tiiinmonts, if continued, will do great deal towards heightening ti aspirations of the youiag people o Ridgeway towards literary attain iments, and in this way will"accomr plish great good.
