THE HOPE OF THE SOUTH.

war is mighty teacher, ana ter
ribly severe are the lessons 1t sets.
Let all great wars teach greatness to
the people who are engaged in them.
No greater war has been witnessed
than that through which the South
ern people but lately passed. 1t
taught many lessons while it ragged,
but its wisest and best lesson has yet
to be learned. 1t is that the reliance
of the South-the hope of the South
Lies in her young men. In a great
measure this is true of every people.
But, in the usual course of nature,
the old men go off and the young
men come on the stage of action so
gradually, that the balance between
the conservative wisdom of age and
the impulsive energy of youth is
beautifully preserved. But the South
no longer moves in the natural order
of things. Her entire system has
been wrenched from its ancient
grooves, and is now seeking new
direction along new lines. The war
brought on this change. But the
war also prepared the means whereby
this change may be made a blessing.
The war brought forward the young
men, and the men of action. 1t
drilled them to lessons of patient toll,
of calm endurance and cheerful ODE
dience, and more than all, of noble
self-sacrifice. The war, too, taught
the old men, the women and chill
drcn, to rely upon the young men,
And this very reliance made men Of
mere boys.
What was taught in war must be
practiced in peace. Though the war
is ended, now and forever, we trust,
the time for men of action has not
passed. The South needs her young
men now to work for her even more
than she did to fight for her. The
times are not as they were, and the
thoughts and habits of the good old
times will not do for to-day. The
men who We're born and bred and
have grown gray in those ways and
thoughts are set. They cannot
change, nor can they be remodeled.
The new order of things requires new
men with new ideas. Men who are
not so fondly welded to the good old
ways that they can see nothing good
In the new. Men who have the wis
dom to see what is good in the old
system and what is good in the new;
who can quietly put a good thing in
the place of a bad, and let the bad die
out. In n word, men who however
clearly they may see the best thing,
have the courage to do the best thing
that can be done for the time being,
and the patience to wait for the rest.
These are the young men who know
how to command from having
learned how to obey. The future of
the South is in their hands, and could
not be in better. They will neither
desert nor dishonor her.-Dirie Far
l1ler.

PHRoPHECY BECOME HISTORY
George III. Pendleton, the Democrat
lie candidate for Governor of Ohio,
was the man who said in Congress, of
the present paper money system:
" You send those notes out into the
world stamped with irredeemability.
You put on the mark of Cain, and
like Cain they will go forth to be vag-
abonds and fugitives upon the earth.
What, then, will be the consequence?
The currency will be expanded, prices
viii he inflated; fixed values will he
deprecated incomes will be dimin-
ished; the savings of the poor will
vanish; the hoardings of the widow
VIII melt away; bonds, mortgages,
and notes, everything of fixed value,
will lose their value; everything of
changable value will be deprecated;
the necessaries of life will rise in val
ue; the government will pay two
fold-eertainly larger than II ought
for everythingit goes into the market
to buy; gold and silver will be driven
out OF the country. What then p
The day OF reckoning must come
Contraction will follow. Private
ruin and public banruptcy, either
with or without reputation, will in
eyitably follow"
Thousands of citizens who have
either failed in business, or been
checked in business, have already felt
the force of these prophecies, and to
others they have or will become his
tory. Mr.. Pendleton also forcibly
md truly said, in the same speech
"No nation had a better currency
with more care, for the trainers of the
Constitution and those who had en-
acted the early statutes on the sub
ject were hard money men. Let gen

Lager Bier is fermented liquor,
made from matted grain : barley
principally. Hops and other flavor
Ing matters are added to improve
their taste and impart their peculiar
properties, tonic or otherwise, to any
liquor. Lager bier, properly made,
II analysed, will give the. following
result: Water, 71.S0; malt, 4.85;
alcohol, 2.44; carbonic acid, OIL
The lager bier brewing season begins
about the close of October, and ends
about the first of April. lin the man
ufacture of bier the barley, wheat or
other grain Is selected with much
care. 1T Is first subjected to the pro-
cess called mailing, which IL effected
I'm .clsterns, with depth of six or
seven inches above the Surface of the
grain. When the grain has become
fully soaked-usualiy absorbing for
ty or forty-five pounds to the hun
dred weight of barley--it Is taken
out, allowed to drain for six or seven
hours, and then spread upon the malt
floor, where the next process of the
operation Is called COUGHING. Lying
In beds of twelve or sixteen inches In
depth, the grain soon becomes moist
Though chemical changes, andgerm-
nation commences.
When this has gone sufficiently far,
which Is known by the grain becom-
ing white and crumbly like meal,
the process is changed and germina-
ton Immediately arrested by the
grain being spread on the floor OF n
malt kiln, and the temperature raised
gradually from 90 to 40 degrees, DUR
ing the operation Of drying, the malt
being frequently stirred. Then
comes the brewing process, which,
like the first stage, embraces several
different operations. The malt IL
first ground or crushed TO coarse
powder, which Is afterward shaken
Into large mash tubs containing wa
ter at temperature of 100 degrees.
More water Is added, and the temper
ature carefully raised several degrees
higher, after which the Infusion Is
drawn off. More water Is then added
to the crushed malt In the tub, drawn
off, and added to the first; still an
other wctting takes place, with the
water at the boiling point. The next
process IL the boiling, which il done
by placing the Infusion in large
copper vessels furnished with steam
valves. During the boiling operation
the hops are introduced. Then boil
ing over, the liquor IL strained and
allowed to cool, when 1t is placed in
huge wooden watts, and yeast added,
after having fermentcd long enough,
the liquor Is drawn off into huge re-
ceptacles and stored in high vaults,
where it Is allowed to remain for sew
eral months. This Is called lager

The Confederate Orphan Asylum at
GAINESVILLE.
The Paris Intelligencer says:

Rev. A. Mizell, one of the most elo.
quent as well as among the ablest d.
vines belonging to the Tennessee
Conference of the Methodist church
South, and who Is principal agent OF
the Tennessee Confederate Orphan
Asylum, located at GAINESVILLE, spent
several days recently in our midst, at
tending to the interests of that insti-
tuition of voluntary charity. He
preached on Sunday last to n full but
not crowded house from the Meth
odist pulpit, and at the close of the
sermon appended brief but truly ell
oquent appeal in behalf of the un-
cared for Orphanage Of the Confeder-
ate dead. Old and young, male and
female, federal and secessionist, all
alike who were presentrespondsd with
their tears and each seemed to give
with free heart. and liberal spirit
We were glad TO learn from him the
contribution at this place was the
largest he yet collected in proportion
to the size of the audience.
Although our people poor In money
they are rich In liberality and in SYM
pathy for the poor and helpless. God
grant that each person that contrib
utes their mite to this noble charity
may find 1t compounded to their cred
IL o thousand fold I'm the great day of
accounts when the books shall be
opened; while he who gave the least
sum and gave as he was able has
made as acceptable gift in the sight
of Heaven as he who gave most with
a like spirit, yet we cannot forbear to
mention the liberality of one our cit
liens to whose beneficence these little
children will ever owe their most
grateful remembrance. Hist we
forbear to parade before the public, as
his modesty Is alone equalled by his
meritorious and munifcent charity.
A county society composed entire
ly OF ladies, was organized, which we
will publish hereafter. Mr.. Mizell re-
quests us TO tender to those citizens
who responded to the call in behalf
of the orphans, his heartfelt graft
tude. He leaves our quiet little town
impressed with the conviction that
there are many people In 1t with large
hearts and noble principles. "Faith,
Hope and Charity, but the greatest
OF these Is Charity"
We learn from the Rev. Mr.. Mizell
that the amount contributed by the
citizens of Paris and Henry county
Is about $500.
Mr.. Mizell visited Shelbyvillc last
week, and he collected there $40 In
cash, received subscriptions fora con-

How Near Mr. Polk Came 10 Buying
the Island.
Correspondent of the Cincinnati Gazet

Correspondent of the Cincinnati Gazette.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 16.--Concern-
ing the purchase of Cuba, new YER
sion of the steps taken in the matter
during the administration of Mr..
Polk has just appeared in French
work, issued i'm Paris by NJ. Profno
Valentine, entitled, "Reforms in the
Islands Of Cuba and Porto Rico,n
with preface by NJ. Ed. Laboulaye.
The endorsement thus given to the
work, by gentleman as distinguish
ed as M. Laboulaye, marks its author
as man worthy of confidence. His
story regarding, Mr.. Folks attempt
to secure the island, as found on page
227 of the work named, is i'm substance,
as follows:
During the Presidency of Mr..
Polk, when the Spanish treasury was
exhausted, and a heavy war debt was
pressing, the American Minister at
Madrid proposed to the Spanish Min
lister of Foreign Affairs the cession of
Cuba for a consideration. The pro-
position was favorably received and
000, 900. The cabinet at Washington
uDlTONth llilS dSIcciutlit, anu uiTtC-
ted its Minister to close the negotia-
lions, but to endeavor, possible, to
reduce the price named. Pending the
final preparation of the papers, the
American Secretary of Legation at
Madrid, who had acted as interpreter,
visited Paris, and while there at a
dinnerparty with friends, mentioned
the particulars of the negotiations
by this means 1t become known to
certain Englishmen, who at once
sent the fhct to London. The Eng
lish government Immediately inter
fered and prevented the consumma-
ton of the negotiation. Thus far M.
Valicnte.N
The version of the matter most gen.
orally received in this country at the
time, was that proposition for the
purchase Of Cuba had been made by
our Authorities, but that it had been
declined. If the above account be
true, there must be some interesting
correspondence upon the
subject in the State Department III
the part played by Lord Palmerston
could be ascertained, 1t would form q
readable chapter In the history of the
loves of these two countries. And IL
the Secretary Of Legation (if he be
living) could be induced to prepare
an account of that dinner in Paris, 1t
would not be without its value.

For the Young 10 RecoIIect.

Strong as our prejudices are they
may be starved into submission, and
without being killed.
Be deafto the quarrelsome, blind to
the scOrner, and dumb to those who
are mischievously inquistive.
Keep your body sound; as wine sa-
vors Of the cask 1t is kept In, the soul
receives q tincture from the frame
through which 1t works.
One reason that the world IL not re-
formed Is, because every body would
have Others make n beginning and
think not of himself.
Truth would DO popular with us If
1t proposed only to correct the faults
of others.
1t is the ordinary way of the world
to keep folly Mt the helm, and wit un-
der matches.
Never expect any assistance or con-
ISOLATION in your necessities from
drinking companions.
True liberty allows each individual
TO do all the good he can for himself,
without injuring his neighbor.
Hate not opinion for being contrary
to thine own. IL is not certain but
thou myself mayest be In the wrong.
The human heart Is made for love,
as the household hearth for fire; and
for truth, as the household lamp for
light. -
People In passion seldom wish
their questions TO be answered at all,
and never that they should be an
swered coolly and with reason.
Avarice starves its keeper, to sur
felt those who wish him dead.
Some parents choose to stamp
children as prodigals, whom others
would think angels. Before you con-
denim the black sheep of n family,
you must make sure that the shep-
herd Is not color-blind.
The man who Is careful Of his own
will be careful of Ills neigh
boris. The man who thoughtlessly
speaks Ill of another Is reckless OF
his own good name.
True politeness Is modest, unpre-
tending and generous. Its appear
ance Is not striking, because q truly
polite man, while acting courtesy,
would conceal 1t. IL engages q man
to esteem his neighbor, because he
thinks II manlier TO descend a little
himself than degrade another.
Discouragements are given us to
bear and TO surmount-not to talk
about and yield to. II IL pluck and
endurance that win.
