A. Colony OF ARMENIAN IMNIGRANTs FOR
THE SouTH-An Armenian gentleman from
.Constaatinople has arrived here with view
of finding q location in the Southern States
for colony of two hundred Armenian famiI
lies. he yesterday addressed Q. number OF
his couutrymen who are resident here. He!
alluded to the considerable body of Armeni!
ans at Constantinople who entertained q de-.
sire to find land .of religious liberty, where
they might settle, and said that the Americans
missionaries had pointed to the Southern
States of America as the promised land, and
also as region having a climate similar TO-
that of the countries bordering on the Medi-
terranean. This is novel and desirable ele7
ment in the emigration to America. In race
the Armenians are Japhetic in faith. they,
are Christian, but Of confession that differs
both from the Protestant and Catholic, though
it resembles the latter in many. respects.
Though the Armenians have long been SUBJ
iect to the Turks and Persians, they are a
people of remarkable enterprise and intelli-
eence, with . valuable old literature and
many eminent scholars. They have in times
past established colonies in various parts OF
Southern Europe, and they are numerous in
the cities of European Turkey. If the tirst
colony tothis country prove success, as we
trust It may, we shall doubtless in timo see
several thousand Armenisus follow II from
Countantipopls. They can find in Virginia,
South Carolina or Georgia, localities that OF.
fer them every opportunity for freedom, hap
piness, health and pecunisry success.-Ne~
York Times.

Then and Now.

Here is o Picture drawn from life BY q CO.
lumbia correspondent oftho New York World !
"Passing up from Charleston, and looking out
on the right of the road, between Kingsville
and this place, there iS an immense clearing,
which a few years ago was under splendid
cultivation, and, at.this season of the year,
white with cotton, with hundreds of hands
busily employed. 1t is now growing in weeds,
and has no fencing,. and, indeed, presents no
sign of life. AS the train rushed along, o
solitary negro man was seen standing in the
open field; hatless; shoeless, and the only
garment he wore was loose cotton shirt
reaching to his knees-a style of dress, OF ab-
sence of dress which, however common for
merly among the little negroes on, the large
plantations, was never known among the
adults. This tall, coal-black negro, in state
ofalmost nudity, had over his shoulder q long
fshing.rod, and presented striking and 'sug-
gestiYe tableau as he stood looking at the fly
Ing train, with miles Of once fertile but now
uucultivated lands lying all around him-lands
living falluw for the want Of just such labor.
Ia thousands of instances like this, emanci-
patton and the Bureau have converted useful
tillers of the soil into idle, vicious vagrants,
who are rapidly going back to barbarism, and
must become baneful curse to the country

FACTS FOR FARMERS AND LABoR1NG MEN TO
SruDY.-If farmer during the course Of Q
year has bought $500 of goods and groceries,
be has paid, in making the purchase, at least
$500 in taxes. The banker gets his income
tax from his depositors. They get theirs
from the men with whom they deal. Labor
pays it all. The crime Of Jacobin financial
policies is, that>the people are taxed for the
benefit of classes. Bondholders have S$2,O0O,-
100000, on which they. receive an income Of
six per cent in gold. They pay no tax. The
National Banks are unnecessarily paid by
the government $l8,0OO,0OO yearly. Most
manufacturers are exempted from taxation,
and the country is taxed for their benefit

The New York Times remarks with agood
deal of truth: /" The cropof cattonand other
staples which the Southern planters will raise
this year will be their own 10 q far greater
extent than any Of tie crops they had raised
during the last two or three years. Last
year, and the year before, great part Of the
crop had to go for the payment Of adyspces
that were made to the planters. The pro-
ceeds # the crops did not 60 into the pockets
of those who raised them, but into the hands
of those who had loaned the means. This
year, however, the planters, to muchgreater
extent than before, started out clear. The
reason, doubtless, in most cases, was that
they could not obtain advances in the North
or elsewhere, SO hard was money to procure
on Southern account. On these grounds, the
crop this year IN the South will realize more
benefit to the planters than in previous years"

E The heels of fashionable shoes worn
by ladies are so small at the bottom as to Of:
ford little or no support to the ankles. This
in part accounta for the peculiar walk of
those who wear them, and this is causing
many weak and sprained ankles for which
there is no cure. An ankle once sprained is
ever after liable to be injured by very slight
cause. No lady who values her comfort in
life, and. her limbs upon which she depends
for locomotion will wear high heels tapered
off as now tho fashion.

nine buildings-one-third of the business
portion of the town-among which were the
Commonwealth printing Office, the postofice,

estimated by reliable persons at $50 O00-

caused by the contact ola light with barrel

Woman's Work.

Woman's Work.
Darning little stockings W4ala..
For restless little feet;
Washing little faces,p ryes4
To keep them fresh and sweet;
Hearing Bible lessons,
Teaching catechism,
Praying for salvation
From heresy and schism,
Woman's work.!
Sewing on the buttons,
Overseeing rations,
Soothing with kind word
Others lamentations; t
Guiding clumsy Bridgets,
Coaxing sullen cooks,
Entertaining company
And reading recent books,
Woman's work!
Durying out &C sight
Her own unhealins smarts;
Letting in the sunshine
On other clouded hearts;
Binding up tho wounded,
Healing o. tho sick,
Bravely marching onward
Through dangers dark and thick;
Woman's work
Leading little children
And blessing munhood's years;
Showing to the sinful
How Gods forgiveness cheers;
Scattering sweet roses
Along another's path;
Smiling by the waysidc,
Content with what she hath,
Womun's work !!
Letting fall her own tears
Where only God can see;
Wiping off another's
With tender sympathy;
Learning by experience,
Teaching By example;
Yearning for the gateway,
Golden, pcarly, ample,
Woman's work!
At last cometh silence
A day of deep repose;
Her locks smoothly braided,
Upon hcr breast u rose;
Lashes resting gently
Upon the marble cheek;
A look of blessed-peace
Upon the forehead meek.
e, The hands softly folded,
The kindly pulses still;
The cold lips.know no smile,
The noble heart no thrill;
Her pillow needs no smoothing,
She. eraveth for no care
Loves tondcrest entrcuty
Wakes no responses there.
A grave in the valley,
Tears, bitter sobs, regret;
Another lesson taught, , -
That life may not forget: ~

A race forever run;

And woman's work is done.
