Good signs for the south.
From the New York TrIbune.l


The Southern papers are filled with adver.
tisements of land fertilizers, and the mer'
chants appear to be competing greatly for the
sale OF them. The demand, it seems, is some
thing quite extraordinary in the South, and Ia
an encouraging sign for the beginning Of the
planting season. It is evidence that If the
lands are worn their owners are not disposed
10 leave them in that condition. ProprletoEs
of small cotton mills in the North are begin
ming 10 discover that there is some truth 10
the Idea of concentrating their resources, and
there are indications that during the present
spring large number Of that class OF manu-
facturers are preparing to carry their ma
chinery Into factories In the old cotton dis
tricts. They will save freight on the raw ma
terial, they will get fresher and cheaper labor,
and they will find unrivalled natural agencies.
With improved and reinvlgorated fields, and
with a home market for cotton and labor, the
South can get along very well, without much
politics,

exterior, and also rough drawings OF owl
heads. In the layers nearer the surface, he
found great number OF articles made OF ter
ra.cotta, and resembling boys tops. One OF
these contained nicely engraved inscription
in. Phenician characters, consisting of six
letters. DR.. Schllemann does not, however,
connect these discoveries with Troy, but, on
the contrary, is of the opinion that these
mounds are much older than the Trojan war
probably by thousand years or more. An
interesting archaeological fact In these dIscov-
cries is that Implements of the stone period
are found in layers above that Of the bronze
or copper period.

About Marrying.

Forty years ago boomil yonng girl of
sixteen married an old man Of sixty tor his
money, expecting that he would soon die and
leave her wealthy young widow. Last week
the lady died at the respectable age oil nifty.
six, leaving husband aged one hundred, and
four children 10 mourn her loss.
The above is going the rounds OF the
press as "a sad mistake" Sad, why sad 2
We see nothing sad about it. The man at
the time OF his marriage was not such an
old man. Many older men have married.
Last year man ninety-two years old was
married in Florida, and he was 30 fat that he
couldn't pull his marriage license out OF his
breeches pocket, and it had to be cut out
with the brides scissors before the ceremony
could be perfected.
AS for the young girl Of sixteen who mar
ried man Of sixty, the assumption that she
did 80 for his money is purely gratuitous.
No woman marries for money; and il this
one did marry for money she got forty years
of comfort aud four children. Was there
any "mistake" in that? True, she was not
left wealthy young widow. But if che ex-
pected 10 kill off q man OF sixty simply by
marrying him, she was a great goose, never
read her Bible, and knew nothing of the his
tory Of Solomon.
No; women do not marry for money or
wed with murderous intent. We go further
and say that women marry solely out Of CON-
passion. Motives Of selfish OF mercenary
nature never actuate them. They give oil
to get nothing. Pity is akin to love, and
what is more pitiable than an old man? Wo-
men ought to marry old men and none other.
What earthly use has y5ung man for a
wife; what good can she do him? He don't
need her. He can drink whiskey, smoke
cigars, ride horses, play cards, sit up all
night, fly around generally, jump, run,
walk, swim, play on the accordeon, eat
what he pleases, wear fancy Clothes tight
boots, has got no corns, no asthma, rheu-
matism, is not bald or hip-shot, wears no
spectacles, can sleep in damp sheets, and go
to the theatre and join the masons, fish,
hunt, fight duels, travel, play billiards. part
his hair in the middle, get in debt and enjoy
himself in every conceivable way. To such
man wife, especially a young wife, is q
superhuity. An old wife, who would act as
mother and guardian to him, might be Of
service to him.
But when man is in the sere, spawned,
wheezy, purblind, broken down, used up
aud played out, then he really needs wife,
and young, able-bodied one to take care Of
him, irritate his scalp with fne-tooth
comb and smooth his pathway to the tomb.
And he ought to be able to pay handsomely
for these services. AS woman's life is one of
self sacrifice, that most beautiful aud touch
ing trait in her character should be ilustra-
ted, brought out and developed. This can
best be done by marrying an ancient and
dilapidated man. The 'sad mistake is in
marrying young men. 1t ought never to be
done.

For the Benefit OF Wall Street.

From the beginning it was evident that
the grand object Of the late Legislative ses
sion was to strengthen, at any cost, the
monetary credit OF the State. It is true thai
our legislators held few bonds or stocks
themselves, and cared little for the interests
OF Northern capitalists; but they were giVer
to understand that to leave the State in the
financial slough would ruin the Radical
party, and that the payment OF their OWL
s.six dollars day and mileage" depended
upon their prompt adoption OF the entire Sc
ries OF monstrous measures offered for theil
acceptance. They squirmed and protested,
but ended by complying with the behests o.
their masters.
The interest on the public debt remained
unpaid: the Legislature passea q law requir-
ine the annual levy and collection OF tax
sufficient to pay that interest in full.
Doubts were cast upon the validity OF seVe-
raj millions of the new bonds: the Legisla-
trre passed law declaring every bond al.
ready issued legal and binding upon the
State.
The conservative press had included the
railroad endorsements in their reckoning
of the State debt the Legislature gave the
Blue Ridge Ring sl,SO0,O0O in conside-
ration of the cancelment Of the State en-.
dorsement to the amount Of four million dol
lars.
1t was thought that the Financial Agency
might be in the way Of the speculative saints
who proposed to restore the fiscal fabric to
its ante-bellum completeness the Leglsla-
ture passed law authorizing settlement
with the Financial Agent and the suspen-
sion of the Agency.
Rumor said that the famous Sterling
bonds were about to be issued the Leglsla-
ture at once repealed the law and appointed
a Joint committee, who certify that the bonds
are cancelled.
Lastly, at the suggestion OF The CHARLES
TON NEWS, the Legislature adopted uuasi.
mously a resolution for an amendment to
the constitution prohibiting any addition to
the State debt, except with the consent OF
two-thirds OF the people at a general elec-
tiop.
This completes the list Of remedial finan-
clal measures; excepting always the License
law. There is not one OF them, save the
constitutional amendment, OF which the
mass of the taxpayers approve. They are
the work OF theofficials and the Ring, who,
trusting to retain for a decade the control OF
the State, are determined at all hazards to
60 on validating and taxing until they have
restored the credit OF the State in Wall
street, and forced it's bonds back into the
seventies. And the taxpayers are power
less, or, which is much the same thing, they
believe that they are 80. The legislation OF
the session has already caused the bonds 10
advance nearly ten per cent. This may be
all very fine for the money lenders and stock
iobbers, but it is o terrible wrong to the
people Of the State.

small quantities. They will help
themselves to hat they need, if
