THURSDAY EVENING, OCTOBER 9.

A TRUE NOBILITY. the Marion
(Ga.) Messenger In Southern city the
writer recently visited a household composed OF
an aged couple and their two daughters-botth
lovely girls Besides these there were two ao-
sent children-one, another daughter who was
acting as governess upon the slender salary OF
so4O per annum, and son, himself struggling
to support his young family IN the far south
west. In their veins courses the blood OF one
of the most illustrious of Washington Gen
erals. Before the war. large slave owners, they
lived in ease and influence in their beautiful
island home, surrounded by all that makes life
pleasant and happy, or travelled abroad tor
pleasure. But with the surrender came the
utter destruction of their property, and hope
less poverty and restitution. Now it was, how
ever. that the noble blood of gallant race
again evinced itself The parents were too
aged and feeble for active employment, but the
noble girls, though of tender age, at once ad
dressed themselves to the arduous task OF their
support. One of them, as stated, obtained the
position of a governess, and monthly contrib
utes three.fourths of her scanty plttance to the
loved authors of her being. The other two re-
NAMED at home, and besides ninistering to
the personal wants of the aged couple, ply the
needle diligently also to provide for them the
necessaries of life. Possessed of exquisite taste,
happily the products of their skllltul fingers
find ready purchasers, and thus they are ena-
bled to live, with such assistance as their dis.
tant brother can also afford In the depths OF
their adversely. the native dignity and bright
virtues of these peerless ladies shine forth re-
splendently.

The New Mexican President.


The Mexican Congress opened
on the 18th Of March, be fore which
the new President of the Repub-
lie. Lerdo dc Tejada, delivered his
inaugural address. According to
this document the internal affairs
OF Mexico are more tranquil just
now, than they have been in q
Long while. If this statement
could be received as an assurance
that there were to be no more civ.
il revolutions. it would be CRATE
full news indeed; but facts as they
exist inspire no such hope. Re-
volution is still rife in at least one
OF the States, while disturbance
are reported at several points ON
the border.
President Tejada makes no ex-
position of the financial condition
of the Republic, which, it is well
known, Is none of the best. He
congratulates the Congress, how
ever, that he has been enabled, by
the exercise Of strict economy, to
avoid the borrowing of a million
dollars, for which ne had an
authorization. On the subject of
the finances he is very brief, the
following sentence containing The
substance Of all he has written
"Altheugt the national revenue
has been notably reduced in con-
sequence of the ultimate revolu.
tion, and also 10 consequence OF
and as q natural, immediate
result of the change of various
fiscal laws, the civil ard military
lists have, by adhering to the
strictest economy, been covered
with sufficient regularity"
The President aIludes to tho
Mexican law which makes a pri.
mary education obligatory, and
offers an argument in favor Of
the principle. assuring his hear
ers that it is 1.-THE surest i,asis I'D
on which to elevate the character
Of the citizen and the national
greatness" 1t would be we'll for
the Mexican people to give
heed to this language. Education
happens to be one OF the things
they most need, and until its i'm.
ports nee gains greater recognition
the enlighted world will entertain
no very sanguine snticipati0ns OF
any more quietude, or permanently
to the Government than has
marked its history since the
Of the Republic.--.San
