Z. A late New York letter says: sThe num-
her of Southerners living at the North, partic
uularly in the city Of New York. seems almost
fabulous. They are presiding over boarding
houses in the avenues, on the cross streets and
down town. They are working banking estab-
lishments on Wall street, conducting assign
ments for cotton and naval stores in Pearl and
Water streets and Maiden Lane, selling prints,
shoes and groceries on Broadway, Courtlandt
and Canal, furnishing matter tor the critical
and local columns OF newspapers, clerklng IN
wholesale and retail houses, and, In word,
filing every imaginable place OF business-trom
candy shop up to the spacious counters of the
merchant prince. Judges and lawyers, who
were the ornaments of the Southern bench and
bar brilliant Journalists, poets and novellsts,
eminent statesmen and distinguished military
leaders, beautiful. and accomplished women,
who were the magicians OF society in Charles
ton. Augusta and Mobile, and even beardless
bows, full Of, the idea of forsaking a doomed
country, they are ail'there by thousands and
tens of thousands. IL = "
= Some idea may betormed Of the immenslty
of that. number, when it is said, that, IN the
election of Mayor Hoffman, the united South
ern and Irish vote easily determined the .po-
litical fortunes of the city. Let q visitor, on
any day, take the cars on University Place! on
Fourth Avenue, and he will see that, not only
have Southerners gone North, but that they
have carried their home gallantry and polite
ness with them, They never sit In the street
cars, and permit ladies to stand up.
ii But what have all these Southerners gained
by going North7 They ran away from negro
supremacy and the plantation otpoverty, and
what have they got in exchange? The supre-
macy Of cold, heartless, vulgar social system,
and the terrors of poverty, such as the South
never knew, which takes more women and
children by the brain and heart, without warn
inglor pity. and presses and orushes them until
they are glad to die. There are hundreds OF
fair browed Southern boys 10 the North to-day,
who do not know where they will get slice of
bread for their dinner. No, let our men stand
by their imperilled homesteads; or, if they are
! burnt, let them stand by the ruins until the
angel of Gods mercy shall have come to US
again. We solemnly protest against our young
men leaving the places where they were cradled
forsthe piti1ess hearthstones of strangers. If
we must, let us follow the old Athenian plan,
and carry our women and children to the island
of Salamis, and to the ships, but let us hold
to our native SOIL ~.' =
