Yankees I'm Demand.

The character Of the Southern people, not
withstanding their intensely sectional feel
ings, has been curiously modified by the
change in their situation and surroundings.
They are beginning to cultivate an energy
they have never shown before, but which
they admire and emulate in their Northern
neighbors. In old times the Southern
farmer or planter was content to let his
overseer plod on in the ways Of his fore
fathers, and concerned himself but little about
how his place was managed, SO long as the
profits suiiiced to cover the expenses. That
plan Of farming will not answer nowadays.
More energy and skill are needed now than
ever before to make bare living, and no.
body knows il better than the Southerper
himself Hence we find advertisements for
Northern mepto fill the places o. superin-
dents Of farms and factories.
There is quality Of intellect, business
tact, a capacity to take hold Of any enter
prise and turn it to account, in which Yam
KEGS certainly excel all other races, land that
Southerners appreciate this. They know the
Northerners have achieved prosperity under
disadvantageous circumstances, and they
think they can do il again. This willingness
TO avail themselves Of what they deem for.
eign assistance is o new thing, and much to
their credit By all means let Yankees
come South with their ingenuity and shrewd.

art Of making money.-Chattanooga Tenn

MAxMILIAN's CoINs.-The New York Nu-
mismatic Society are making themselves
merry about a silver dollar issued by Maxi
milan, Emperor Of Mexico, which is on ex-
hibition in that city. The Emperor, whose
efigy is on the coin, has beard, which is so
drawn as to bear, when the coin is turned up
side down, striking resemblance to the head
Of donkey. The New York numismatists
have had grave discussion to decide whether
this resulted from design or was an inten-
tional piece Of satire on the part Of the artist
The Mexicans are lucky, however, to have
even donkey-marked silver in circulation, for
our coins have been 80 long out of sight that
the public generally have forgotten whether
eagles or donkeys have most to do in orna-
menting them.

ApOrtInR Men.

The New York correspondent Of the Bos-
ton Journal writes as follows:
"The London Times congratulation that
the American people are becoming more
and more sporting people applies peculiarly
to New York. A few years ago Leonard
Jerome bought tract Of land very cheap.
1t was his intention to create small village
where mechanics and others could reside.
The rage for sporting springing up, he con
cluded to turn his plot Of ground into a
racing course. Obtaining the countenance
of Vanderbilt, Belmont, and other sporting
men, he formed club, made ii oil the rage,
and sold his purchase at an enormous price
so that horse-racing, with oil its attendants,
is fully inaugurated among the elite Of New
York Everything that Jerome touches
seems to turn to gold. A few years ago he
was the proprietor OF the Rochester Ameri'
can, and so poor that he could scarcely pay
for his telegraphic dispatches. He now
measures his wealth with the richest men oi
the city. He is the most daring speculatoI
in Wall street. He drives the most fashion
able team on Central Park. He has the
finest stable in the land, and will have O
house to surpass Stewards. He is the leader
Of oil fashionable sports, and pocketed
$4,000 in the recent yacht race, having BET
on the Henrietta. His brother went out
with Bennett"

A Grand srindIinx Operation.

There is o gentleman in Boston who has
been heavily swindled, and is now in receipt
Of an immense quantity Of sympathy from
the sympathizing people Of the good old city
called the "Hub." The gentleman who has
been swindled is a gentleman Of eminent re-
spectability. He has even been o member
Of the Board Of Aldermen Of the city Of
Boston, and that is an eminent position.
The City Councils Of Boston are highly re-
spectacle. No presiding officer Of either
Board Of that respectable body Of municipal
legislators ever had his shirt frill discolored
by the contents Of an inkstand discharged at
the "Chair" by an irate member. Such an
outrage as that never happened in the Coun-
ellis Of the trimountain city. Such an out
rage as that would have shaken Beacon Hill,
Fort Hill and Copps Hill to their respective
centres.
