ter claims that the climates advantage in
favor of the South is one-half cent year.
Now, in this County, there is an abun-
dance OF water power, and without price.
But the greatest advantage which you would
possess over the world is, you produce the
cotton-the raw material-and have it at
your own doors. This, it will and must be
seen Mt once, is an immense advantage
When cotton is selling in New York at
twenty-nine cents, it is worth here about
twenty-five or twenty-three.
These advantages are perfectly clear and
plain. They are patent to the most careless
observer.
The incidental benefits resulting from fac
torres are not confined to the new employ
ment which they furnish for operators.
They afford most advantageous facilities for
the intellectual and moral improvement of
the young. Factories draw together in
communities persons with children that

The Paris Deml Monde.

The gorgeous and glittoring demi-
world of Paris is unique. Neither
here nor elsewhere outside of the
gay and wicked capital is the ex-
istenee of such class, in its full
glory, possible. Now that the sea-
son is at its close, the drive in the
Bois is mostly given up to the ele-
gantes of this sphere, "Ladies Of the
Lake" whose equipagcs cost each
comfortable fortune, whose toilcttes
surpass in genuine costlinoss those of
the proudest ladies Of title, whose
diamonds are kings ransom, and
whose purse is as deep as a queens.
These are the Aspasias of the mod
ern empire, whose brilliant recep-
tons surpa8s those of the princesses
OF the grand world, and whose smile
is sought not alone by the frivolous
golden youth.
Nim was the most noted among
these women of gay life, She has
dozen thoroughbreds in herstables,
and as many less noble bipeds fight
ing for the honor Of paying her bills.
But she had the disease of la Trovi-
ata, and when driven out on the Bois
the other day she muflled the death
cough too closely, the vessels of her
poor, worn-out lungs ruptured, and
she sank back fainting. The high
stepping horses were turned to drive
her home to die; but the blood bub-
bled up over the lace handkerchief,
staining her splendid raiment, and a
dead woman was carried away
through the frightened ranks of her
rivals and courtiers. "Not very
amusing, this death struggle in the
open road" is the comment of the
paris chronicle; and Mini is not
missed.

Bankruptcy.

The prevailing opinion is that pc
titioners in bankruptcy subsequentto
January l, 1869, are under the i'm
perative necessity Of paying fifty per
ccntum of all their debts, as a con-
dition precedent to obtainngi a dis
charge. This Is by no means true,
as the last amendment to the Bank
rupt act clearly proves. 1t is as
follows:
In all proceedings in bankruptcy
commenced after the first day OF
January, 1869, no discharge shall be
granted to a debtor whose assets
shall not be equel to fifty per centum
ofthe claimsprored against his estate,
on which he shall be liable as the
principal debtor, unless the assent in
writing in number and value of his
creditors to whom he shall have
become liable as principal debtor,
and who shall have proved their
claims, be filed in the case at or
before the time Of the hearing of the
application for discharge.
1t will be observed from this pro-
vision that there is comparatively
little difficulty in the way of the
honest bankrupt. If he is really in
solvent, and makes faithful sur
render of his assets, he will have lit
tie trouble in obtaining the assent
of a majority of his creditors, espec-
tally as he requires the assent of q
a majority of those only who have
proved up and filed their debts
debts, too, of the bankrupt's own
contracting. He does not need the
assent of his creditors to whom he is
indebted as surety. This is an i'm.
portant feature, not embraced in the
original act, and merits Che attention
of those who are overwhelmed by
Indebtedness incurred as security fol
others. Hundreds are oppressed with
security debts" relieved of which
they could easily manage theil
own creditors knowing this, will not
hesitate to give their assent to the
discharge. The creditor will moi
fail to see that his only hope of Sc,
curing himselfis through the release
of the bankrupt from the "securit,
debts" But even where the bank.
rupt's debts are all his own contract
ing, an honest surrender of the asset,
whether they be much or little, viii
secure the assent of his creditors t
his discharge raianchs.
