South Kkntitckian :As iniaforlunea are said never lo come aingly so do pleasures frequent* ly come in crowds, as was evidenced by the numerous social eulertuin-mciits which this neighborhood enjoyed during lust week.First on the list of the week’s fes-tiviiies was the elegant reception given to Mr. and Mrs..Iiio. IV. Cooper, at the residence of Esq. J. T. Coleman, on last Tuesday night, June 30. To (Ida reception a number of invitations were issued and by 9 o'clock of the appointed evening the spacious house of Esq. Coleman was filled almost lo overflowing, with a splendid assemblage of Christian county’s elite, who had cornu to do honor to Mr. and Mrs. Cooper. Social converse,together with sweet strains of music ou the piano am) harp, occupied the attention of the crowd until the announcement of supper called the guests from the parlor lo the dining room. Here the heart of the gourmand was tilled with delight by llio sight of several long tables that almost gave way beneath their burden of eatables. Meats, saluds, sauces, pickles, jollies, codec and tea constituted the first course which was followed by the choicest cakes, custards, Ices,ambrosia, wines, fruits and confections, all of which made up a bill of fare that could not be excelled for variety and quality. Full justice having been done to the elegant supper, tlio guests repaired to the parlor to continue their social pleasures until the llrst streaks of dawn compelled a reluctant dispersion of the happy crowd.Thus passed uway an evening of unalloyed enjoyment, which will always remain as a delightful reminiscence in the minds of all present on the joyous occasion.To Mr. and Mrs. Cooper Camille kindly offers his warmest congratulations and hopes that the auspicious circumstances surrounding their nuptials, may bu an earnest of genuine happiness to bless their wedded life. Your reporter would ulso tender many thanks to Esq. Coleman ami his uoble wife for their very kind and courteous treatment of their guests.t)u the 4th of July, 1884, a parly of 32 young ladies and gentlemen, from Clarksville, Tonn., met nt “ttainbow Hock,” a picturesque spot, ! miles from Itlissellvillc, Ky., to celebrate the national holiday.
