THE OAKDKN CITY CARNIVAL OF AUTHORS A URIUt.lANT OCCASION MAOSIKK KNT APPIUNTMKNTS KNRAITL'RINO M'ECTA Cl.ES AND THANSKOHM ATKISS ltl-X'KJTION TO THE SOCIAL "KiKNCB MKMBKHS, KTC. Ciiicaoo. Ill, April 18, 1879. I was not fortunate t'uniijfli to renclt Ciiirite-o in time for tlic ('icuiiiif of tin great Carnival of Authors on Tuesilay evening, ami so cannot give you an account of the wonilcrful ami lirilhnnt effects of the initial evening of tliis gigantic enterprise; nor tell, except ly hearsay, of the multitude of people kn costl'.mk atul otherwise, that surged like the waves of the sea through the great building for many hours, amid the beautiful and artistic booths of various t'ftsigns, that carry one back to thu days of '7G und the Centennial. This Car nival, so unkitie and instructive, seems like the Centennial on a small scale, in many respects, and uue feels us if borne back on the wings of time, and looking at a section of the never-to-be-for gotten "Main Building," when passing such excellent reminders as Egypt or the Turk ish Bazaar. The booths of the Carnival have one great ml vantage over those of the Centennial; they do not contain the treas ures of that vast treasure-house, but they tlo hold living pictures that are well worth careful study, and will prove admirable aids to the freshening of the memory, in the paths of literature, and the retracing of one's steps through the Elysinn fields of poetry and romance. Chicago is a city of great achievements and Chicago women are a power in litera ture, tut find science that would do credit to any city in the land. I feel n spirit of pride in my beloved statu ami a stronger ii fleet ion than ever fur this gieat metropolis of the west, the stir and buoyant life of which is such an inspiration to me, as I looked upon the gay scene, the scores of beautiful women, ele gantly iiparalled, nnd faintly realized how vast thu labor which they have perform ed in preparation, a id how arduous tho work whikh lie i b'tlure them for the next two weeks Tho nanciid success ot tho carnival is insured, as the receipts, for tho first evening wens sufficient to cover the ex penses of t'..e entire season, and It is esti mated that ten thousand people were in at tendance. I do not propose to describe the carnival; the daily papers can and are doing that. I shall not attempt to give you tho Ltintest hint of the wonders and magnifleienee of the eiiven of Aladdin and tho Count of Monte CUrlsto, the cool depths of "Under the Sea," or the mac and nzuro heiglits of .Mount Olympus, with the accompanying genii and magicians, the bewitching sea nymphs and lovely goddesses, I cannot pause before tlio tiniy turrets of Blarney Castle nor tho graceful rireheu of th Al hiimbra, even to give you one tantalizing gliinp.se of the lovliest flower maiden- 1 fairest Senoritns ever seen, who would tempt us to tarry too long, while the mag nificent costumes in tho Shakesperc booth where the glory of erinined kings, and glit tering kuights, the fair Queen of Scots, the melancholy Dane, and woes of Lear make one regret that time does not last forever. When that Scylla is passed and you fall Into the Charybdis of the Baronial hall and your bark is stranded umid the peaks of Peveril oud Kenihvorth and old Scotia'a rocky shores how can you leave evea for tho temptation of the Vienna Bakery wuere the quaint Gretchens vie with their charm ing Swiss neighbors over the way in prof fering refreshments for the body, aa a rest from the prabulum of the mind, were it not for the war-whoops sounding iu close and bloody nearness, Close by among their lodges are the most genuine Indiana evur seen, iu all the glory of puint and feathew, and the sight of weapons and sound f musical (i) whoops impel us to hasten, to the other side (passing the inimenje stage, where at intervals gorgeous ta bleaux are giren to admiring crowds,) to rest our aching eyes upon the lovely vale of Cashmere, and then taking a hasty peep at Vanity fair, prancing on without Iwfore antomy and Cleopatra, and acknowledging the genius of Goethe, Goldsmith and Ilago, and the taithfulness of representation nf our Quaker poet's Winter Idyl, passing without mention a dozen lively, quaint, or lovely scenes, we love ourselves in contemplation of the immortals that seem to have stepped bodily forth from the pages of Boz. Little Nell, Miss Flitc, the fat boy, Mrs. vSqaeers and her wooden spoon, poor Smike, the young uiuu by the name of Guppy how can I leave them unsaid and unsung? How did I leave them, even when midnight had almost dwancd upon the sky and they had vanished like a dream to reappear again peopling the visions of the night, in fantastic revelry. As I look forward with interest to another visit, I can but think what an impetus this Carnival will give throughout the state to literary culture. Who can go there and look upon the min ute and carefully arranged details without realizing something of the study, labor and research necessary to produce such excellent representations and who can go away with out mentally resolving to review forgotten lessons and plunge anew, more deeply and thoroughly into the stream which is like. the fabled fountain of de Leon. But enough of the Carnival. Another treat wm the pleasure I enjoyed, on Thursday after noon in attending a very elegant reception given on the West side to the Social Science, association by Mrs. W. O. Carpenter at her handsome home, 120 Park avenue. The reception lasted from three to six o'clock, and was attended by over one hundred la dies and gentlemen, lawyers, artists, doc tors, literary people and others, aud was a delightful entertainment. Mrs. Carpenter, the vice-president of the second congres sional district, is a lady of rare ability aaJ great culture, and her efforts for the asso ciation have been untiring from its (incep tion, and tho numbers in attendance and evident enjoyment of her guests testified to their appreciation ot her labor, und de served popularity. The exercises were full of interest, being several fine vocal and instru mental solos and recitations, admirably rea dered, by Mrs. Kuoeh Knot, Mrs. Laura C. Dainty and Miss Flemniing, all fine elocu tionists. Several of the ladiesjircacnt were from outside of Chicago, among them being Mrs. B. M. Prince of Blooniington, Chair main ot the Committee ou Philanthropy ; Mrs. K. C. Smith of Joliet, Vice-President of the Oth Congressional District, the writer hereof, from the 18th District; Mrs. Ab ner Kirhy, and Mrs. Kempton of Milwau kee, Mrs. T.J. Humphrey of Oak Park, und others. Among the prominent Chicago ladies present, were Mrs. Arthur L. Smith, Mrs. It. II. Handy, Mrs. Itob't Hill, Mrs.' A. A. Carpenter, Mrs. C. R. Sherman, Miss M. P. Perry, Sibelia Baker and other. Some of tho costumei were very elegant, und the flowers, refreshments, etc., sot to be excelled. The opportunity givea tha ladies for social intercour.it! was keenly ea- joyed, and leave taking delayed a long a possible. An assemblage of more beauti ful and highly cultivated women, will not; often be met with, and if Social Science can command the interest und aorvicoa of such ladies, it cannot fail to become a mighty power iu the bud.
