There is little doubt thai Nv Boutwcll's

that tile resolution to amend the Constitution

The SOUTH IN THE NoRTH-Tbat the
South has made wonderful advance in
material prosperity during the past year
is testified to in many ways. The follow
ing in this connection is from recent is
sue of the Ne,o York Mail:
".Fhe merchants of this city enter on
the fall campaign fully prepared to do a
large business, but somewhat apprehen-
sive as to their opportunities for so doing.
There were never finer or larger assort-
ments from which to choose, and there
never was greater anxiety on the part
of our merchants to sell, yet the buyers
are slow in realizing their advantages,
and trade, so far, is dull.
at is singular and suggestive fact
that the only buyers in our market who,
as class, have an abundance of ready
money, are those who come from the
Svuth-a region SO long associated in our
minds with the waste and desolation of
war and with an unreconstructcd condi'
tion of business and productive industry
that it seems odd to meet mon from there
who are actually "fush" with the pro-
ceeds of Southern products. The fact
however, is as undeniable as it is cheerful
The Southern people havo learned econo
my by the hardest of experiences. They
have been taught TO raise their own
breadstuffs, to manufacture largely the
coaser qualities Of clothing, to keep out

A TRUE CHRIsrrAN.-This story-good
to read in these DAYS of business avarice--
is told OF Nantucket generation ago:
1t was very severe winter, and the
harbor had been frozen four weeks. Tho
coal in store had long been exhausted,
and there was much suffering from lack
of fuel. Even the fences had been torn
down and burnt to el1e out the scanty
supply Of wood. To the great delight Of
the towns.people the ice broke up one fine
morning and schooner laden with coal
was seen approaching. There was much
excitement and before the vessel was
moored a coal dealer boarded her and ca
gerly addressed the honest Quaker skip
per, Captain Clifford oval, Cap'en,"
said he, you've about hit it this cruise.
| guess III have to take yur hui cargo.
S'pose you'll want more'n the usual 81 a
ton. Wal, I like to do the square thing
by Il friend and I'll give You Sl2 ton for
it," "Friend," sud Captain Clifford, "thee
can have one ton of my coal if thee likes
for SO, but only one ton all must have
chance" just then one of the richest
men of the place joined them, saying: II
want ten tons of your coal, at your own
prce-name it. have suffered enough
for once" He received the same answer,
and so did all--one ton for each family,
and SS as the price for each ton. No
love of gain, no solicitation, no regard
tor individuals could move honest Cap.
tam Clifford.
The Anderson intelligencer. [volume] (Anderson Court House, S.C.) 1860-1914, 1869-09-16

DRINKING WHILE EArING.-A recent
contributor to the Herald of Health con-
siders the practice of drinking during
meals an injurious one, and argues his
cause thus:
Whoever, contrary to his usual GUS
tom. will turn down his glass at the be
ginning of meal, and not make use OF it
till the close, may perceive that great
many consequences flow from SO simple
an action. In the first place, the only aid
to maslication and degutition, apart
from the teeth and tongue, will be the sal
iva, of which, from long disuse, there
probably will not be the desired abun-
Ounce. The time occupied in disposing
of mouthtul Of food will thus be pro-
longed, and the character of the TODD
make greater impression on the palate.
The stomach will not be treated to II
cataract of half drowned morsels, but at
proper intervals to well-prepared material
for digestion. There will be no haste, no
boiling; the tendency to stuff and over
lead the stomach will be checked or fairly
overcome-at least there will be leisure to
consider wh4thor one is eating too much.
It is needless TO add that these changes
would be in the interest of good breed
ing at the table, there being few things
more repulsive than tho sight of person
who darts at his food, gulps it down in an
instant, and, before it is fairly deposited
in his mouth, has caught up more with
which to pursue 1t.
