exterior. And we may rest assured that
tbey will coutinue to glow in popular favor

That Ibey are arlletts of great ability and
rare accomplishments, tbe Urge audiences,

encomiums of leading papers throughout
Ibe country sufficiently attest. Their fu
ture career is destined tu be a bright snd

es: "We know ol four parlabes In lb Is State,
with a population of about 43,00(1 of nil ages

whisky are required lo meet tbe yearly de
mand. It has been estimated, upon fair
basis of calculation, that tbe consumers In
these lour parlabes pay half a million dollars
yearly for liquor and strong drinks about
three liroea tbe amount of tbeir State and
pariah taxes. Tbe groat sales of Ihe cotton
