' S; Yesterday I went out to Jorome Park Jo attend the races. In themselves the J races were good. Ore or two of them exceptionally fine. The crowd was tolerably good in number, but utterly lacking in spirit and enthusiasm. The ' secret is that the Legislature has passed , an act prohibiting betting and pool selling. The latter feature is wholly lacking from the course. Of course a groat , deal of betting goes on quietly. But it . goes on on the sly and several persons ' have been arrested for violations of the J Ep auv. inure is great uissausiacuon witn ||-/ the law and a perfect howl is going up, ^ especially from Long Branch, where &V the next 'meet' was to he at Monmouth Park* ^ Tho wealth'of these people seems to .-be oppressive and apparently some of pV. them set to work to devise means to sS spend their money. Yesterday at Jerome Park, six Tally-ho coaches drawn by four spanking bob-tailed horses p-i each and driven each by its mrre than millionaire owner and conveying bevies j ^ bf elegantly dressed women, and num- t P^ vbers of the 'VTeitessee Dorpc" drove j |\V into tbo Park. Lunch was spread for t ^^ibom in picnic style by footmen in gor- c I . . goous Hvory, and doubtless the riands 7 m$': were worthy an epicure. Well you re- I p, : member the couplet made by the ^ rhyming Irishman. "Some folks rido in chaises, ?!& . And be Jasus. some folks walks." o Pr' .lii New York though you may not own a ( tally-ho, nor be able to ride in a han- ? |P?.: Bom, or a cab, or a-herdic, which is ( |fe^^Btyle," still you needn't walk, for what 1 1^1,,with the street pars and the elevated > ; railroads you can go anywhere in New J - Y?rk for the sum of five cunts. j I&V-, ; * The theatres are in full blast though Very celebrated actors are here. Last night I saw "Don Ceasar'' at WalJ.-X' leek's. There is not much in the Opera L though there are some v^ry atti^u^ive f.; . pretty . airs. Bafc^the onsy^ .'tumes and the stage ?*tfEtings are simply 1 grand and beautiful. And this criticism (applies^ rfEewise to the Opera "Erminie'' I ^-r-^fiich I saw at the Casino on Thursday 1 P^r night. The Casino is by far tho handsomest Theatre I have seen. Not so | large but much more as the Boston taste- ' ftsl and elegant in its appointments. On ] the roof is a "promenade'' where, every 1 after the opera, the audience ad- r ^journs and has .refreshments whilst the [ bond discourses fine music. I - Grand preparations are being made > .for decoration day to-morrow, (Monday) ( wm 31. It will bo observed by the jgreat majority of the people as a holiday. President Cleveland will be here B|? this evening and will review th& parade Nto-morrow., All the* trops of the Na ggf tional Gaurds,- the Posts of. the Grand Army of the Republic, Civic Societies; Eg# the Array, the Navy.and every other or|> ganizatiorr will have part in this grand ^ -paiade. Bj the way speaking of President ?T Cleveland, his fiancee, Miss Folsom 1^;: *rrived from Europe a few days since p: ^nd is stopping here at the Gilsey Jiiouse. It is disgusting the mafiner in j|]^/jfrhich these papers detail little \ E^. jhinutiae of the young lady's daily life. W^] They actually describe ber toilet and i bj?f> iell what she eats for supper. She f ^flycan'-t go out doors that her every move- ( B^^jcnent is not watched and reported. It K^-jnust be very distasteful to her.

Wo have received the annual catalogue of this most excellent institution ind it shows that the efforts of the President to make it a first-class college "or the education of young Indies have lot been unappreciated. There were n attendance during the past year one hundred and fifty-five pupils. The faculty is,a very strong one and was composed during the last year of the following members : J. 1'. Kennedy, A. M., Presidents : Mrs. K. 1'. Kennedy and \j. M. Bonner, Vice-Principal ; Miss. K. McQuerns. Miss J. V. LeGal, Miss J. T. fMarke, Miss A. K. Leftwitch, Miss M. \V. Mcl")avidand Miss M. A. Young. Academic department?Miss J. V. Edwards, Principal; Miss J. F. Kenndy, Assistant. AVe make the following extracts from the catalogue : Location The Due West Female College is situated in the pleasant village of Due West, Abbeville Couuty, S. C., one hundred miles above Columbia and forty t.iles below Greenville, and within four niles ofDonnald's station on tho Columaia and Greenville railroad. The clinate is one of the most delightful in the ivorld, the atmosphere being pure and iracing in winter, and not oppressively varm in summer. The water is pure reestone and retnarkrbly fine. In point >f hoalthfulness, therefore, -Due West fields to no other place in America. The society of Due West and vicinity s distinguished alike for intelligence md sobriety, for refinement and moraliv. inn uuiiiAtr. DUII<III.NU. The Due West Female College was >uilt in 1860, and was constructed tor he purpose for which it has since been ised. It is a largo thrte-stoiy brick >uilding, 54 feet square, with two" wings wo stories high and 44x32 feet each. It :ontains 32 rooms, besides norticos,piaz;as, cook room and pantries, affordiug tleasant quarters for a family and rooms or recitation and Society Hall. THR ANNEX Wo have completed at very considerable expense a two-story annex to the College building, 60x40 feet. The first itory contains ten Music rooms, a Concert and Calisthenic Hall, and a i?mfortable room for the Primary department. Tho second story is dirlded into dormitories and a Hall for tainting. These rooms are in every vay comfortable. Oua boarding capap* ty is thug greatly increased. . THE MUSIC PEf^fuTJIENT. From tho y>gSnization of the College ;pecial ^MJlention has been given to [WTTs'ic^?instrumental and vocal?regarding it not simply as an ornamental branch; but as being elevating and refining as well.. Where the talent for music has been given itis certainly accom panicd by tho obligation to cultivate it. Hence the Duo West Female Collogo has from tho beginning employed the best musio* teachers and given all possible opportnnities for the study of music, and in this department the College is better equipped now than at any provious time, having only "first-class teaeheis employsd. To the vocal department especially moae attention is now given than ever before, as we l^opb ind believe will bo discovered in the progress of onr pupils. Our arrangement for music is all that could be desired. TUITION?PER TERM.

Here is the r Judge's letter : !' - SvMTBit, S. C , May 25, 1S8G. J. L. Tribble, lisq., Anderson. S. O.? My Dear Sir : 1 have your favor of the ! 18th inst., addressed to me at Alibeville. * In replying to sundry letters of like import received within the past two months. I have expressed -uyself as being content with the official position which I now hold. These commutiicai tions, however, have been addressed to individuals. I now feel called upon to r define my position clearly to the public. i It is well known to my friends that I have never sought or desired political . office of any kind. A public office is a public trust, and one who holds such, to . some extent at least surrenders his right 1 to choose. Regarding it, further, as a ' thing neither to be sought nor declined I have only to say if the people of this I Congressional District, after the retirement of my neighbor and friend, Col. ' Aiken, demand my services as his successor, I do not feel at liberty to decline r to serve them, always bearing in mind the distrust that 1 have of iny own fits ness for the position, contentment with my present office, and knowledge of the i r i a!?.i At . - uittr. mere are ouiers desiring the office in question who are well qualified ; for all.of its requirements. Very respectfully and truXjt -ytfii ^ J. S. Cothran. We are sure that Judge Cothran Y could not be persuaded to entT the race for Congress, merely for the sake f ef Abbeville. We are not sure that Abbeville can point to a single advanf vantage which she had enjoyed more than the other' counties by reason ol r having the representaive for the last . ten years. Pickens has been admirably g represented, by one who is emphatical1 ly a citizen of Noutb Carolina. There b is not in out 'judgement' any aspiranl - for Congress in this District who 3 wants to be elected to keep some one else out, or to keep any county from 1 securing its man. Other things being I equal we agree with the Intelligencer. - that locality ought to have some weight, . Pickens Connty has suffered a dearth, r but her slips are young and can . stand i more. Wc hardly think Abbeville a would try to beat us down; if she does, r there is some consolation in the fact that 1 it takes her biggest club to down us. It - should be remembered that Abbeville can do nothing by herself, and whatever may be the motive prompting the support which Jut.ge Cothran may receive in his'own county, we hasten to assure all concerned, that he would b? the last man to quench the fires of a laudable ambition in the baeast of anyone. There are stara rising on the political 3 horizon of the Third District, which I will shine with lustre when there is j nothing left of Judge Cothran, but his exemplary deeds. We know a slender young citizen, i with kin folks in every county in the 1 i-i 1- ? ? r i/.nniv,t nuu nuuiu uiucii miner represent it in Congress himself than to have any .hard feelings among the ' counties in regard to the place from " which the proper man is to be selected j ?Pickens Sentinel.
