- PUBLIC DEBT OF TIE SOUTHERN STATES
The Debts of the Southern States are summa-
rized in the following: In Virginia Governor
Walker states that the public debt amounts to
S26,000,000. This is one-third less than the
amount previously stated, that portion having
been shifted to West Virginia, which we be-
lieve will not assume the responsibility Of it.
In October last the debt of North Carolina was
stated at $29, ,90O,O45. The debt of Tennessee
in January last was reported at s2O,9C6,3S2, it
having been announced at about S32, 100000
the previous year. The difference was in rail-
road bonds that have been liquidated. In
South Carolina considerable difference of opin-
ion exists as to what the State debt really is,
but the largest amount reported is that by the
committee of Congress on Southern affairs, in
which the minority report gave it at S29, l5S,
9l4 Georgia's debt on January was $751;
961 500, with liability to be increased if GER
tain projected railways should be constructed:
Florida, with similar liability, has a debt Of
S5512,269. Mississippi, on January l, 1871,
reported debt of S1,l45,726. Arkansas, add
ing to the bonded debt all prospective and con-
tingent liabilities, has total Of S14, 1000,
according to the report of the Congressional
committee. In Louisiana in January l, 1878,
the debt was reported at S21 sol 500. In Texas
the debt was S3,S3G,237 on September l, last
year. The total of these debts is little more
than one hundred and eighty millions of dol
lars At the close Of the war, in 1865, these
eleven States owed about one hundred and
thirty millions.

RESOURCES OF THE EMPIRE STATE.-Geor-
gia has very judicious law, which instructs
her tax gatherers at intervals, to collect statis-
tics of the resources of the State. Returns
from these collectors have been compiled for
the present year, the statistics Of the entire
State being reported, excepting from twelve of
the smaller counties. It appears that this year
1,702,169 acres were planted in cotton, and
1871, ,468 acres in corn, showing difference in
favor of the latter, and that the people OF
Georgia, at least have needed the counsel to
grow their own corn. There were, besides,
over one million acres planted in other food
crops, and their result is regarded by the
Georgia papers as giving the assurance that
the people Of the State, for the next twelve,
month, at least, will not have to look abroad
for their food supply The Georgians also have
nearly million and three-quarters head OF
cattle, sheep and hogs, insuring an ample sup
ply of meat and daily products. The indus
trial resources of the State are growing, there
being twenty-five cotton factories, five woollen
factories, and ten iron furnaces.

AfoDEsTY.-Rey. W. B. Sprague, in some
adyice to his daughter, has the following para.
graphs, which it will not injure young ladies to
read and treasure up:
sThere is one point, my daughter, which is
too important to be omitted: refer to the de-
pertinent which it becomes you to maintain
towards the other sex. The importance Of
this, both as it respects yourself and others,
YOU can hardly estimate too highly. On one
hand. it has too much to do with forming your
own character and need not say that any
lack of prudence in this respect even for q
sinnls hour may expose you to evils which no
subsequent caution could enable you efectu-
allv to repair. On the other hand, the conduct
of every female who is of any consideration,
may be expected to exert an influence on the
character Of every gentleman with whom she
associates, and that infuence,w will be for good
or evil, as she exhibits or fails to exhibit de-
pertinent which becomes her. So commanding
is this influence that it is safe to calculate upon
the character of every community from know
ing the prevailing standing of female character,
and that can hardly be regarded as an exagger-
ated maxim, which declares that woman rules
the world
0Let me counsel you then, never to utter an
expression. or do an act, which even looks like
soliciting gentleman's attention. Remember
that eyeTy expression of civility, to be of any
value, must be perfectly voluntary; and any
wish on your part, whether directly or indirect
ly expressed, to make yourself favorite, will
be certain to awaken the disgust of all who
know it"

MANAGING HUsDAND.--A Pennsylvania
lady has most romantic and ingenious way of
managing the gentleman SO happy as to be her
husband. Exasperatcd by her persistent con-
versation, he ungalantly boxed her ears the
other day. The wrctched woman cast but one
lingering, reproachful glance upon her lord
and fled, simply remarking that the briny deep
should wash away the insult. Leaving behind
her everything most dear to her-the home of
her married life, full of beautiful and cherished
memories-this heart-broken woman rushed
frantically to the canal, and, with one parting
sigh, threw in a large stone with q mighty
splash. Then she went and hid herself in the
bushes and giggled, while her husband and
twenty other men hurried up, with horror de-
picted on their countenances and wildly
dragged the canal for her body. When the in
iured woman became convinced that the wretch
had suffered enough, she appeared from be-
hind the bushes and led him home, resigned
and willing victim.

SINGULAR ATTACHMENT TO A RocK--The
Athens Northeast Georgian notes the prevalence
of report in that city, that on Sunday before
last a man living near Sculls Shoals, about
twenty miles below Athens, went fishing, seat
ing himself on rock. Not returning home at
night, search was made for him, and he was
found seated upon the rock, and upon the par
ty requesting him to get up and accompany
them home, he told them that the Almighty
had sent a Judgment upon him, and he had be-
come a part of the rock and could not move.
His friends, thinking that he was only jesting,
took hold Of him and attempted to move him,
when he commenced screaming at the top of
his voice, and asked them, for Gods sake not
to attempt to lift him up, as it would murder
him. lie further informed them that he had
been informed, by an unseen presence, that, as a
judgment for his profanity and Sabbath break
ing, he would never be severed from his present
seat, but would remain fastened to it all his
days, and that he would be made to preach his
own funeral. They say he talks quite freely,
and is visited by immense crowds.

How TO CURE A CoLD.-If cold settles on
the outer covering of the lungs it becomes
pneumonia, Inflammation of the lungs, or lung
fever and in many cases carries off the strong.
est man to the grave within a week. If cold
falls upon the inner covering of the lungs it is
pleurisy, with its knife-like pains and its slow,
very slow recoveries. If cold settles in the
joints there is rheumatism Of the heart, which,
in an instant, sometimes snaps asunder the
cords of life with no friendly warning. 1t is
of the utmost practical Importance, then, in
the wintry weather, to know not 80 much how
to cure cold as to avoid it. Cold always
comes from one cause-some part of the body
being colder than natural for a time. If q per-
son will keep his feet warm, always, and never
allow himself or herself to be chilled, he or she
will never take cold in lifetime and this can
only be accomplished by due care in warm
clothing and avoidance of drafts and exposure.
While multitudes of colds come from cold feet,
perhaps the majority arise from cooling off too
quickly after becoming little warmer than is
natural, from exercise and work, or from con-
fnement to warm department.

MARRIAGE. and women, and especial
ly young people, do not know chat it takes
wears to marry completely two hearts, even of
the most loving and we'll sorted. But nature
allows no sudden change. We slope very
gradually. from the cradle to the summit of
life. Marriage is gradual. a fraction of us at a
time. A happy wedlock is long falling in
love. know young persons think love only
belongs to brown hair, and plump, round,
crimson cheeks So it does for its beginning,
but the golden marriage is part of love which
the bridal day knows nothing of. Youth IS
the tassel and silken flower Of love; age is. the
full corn, ripe and solid in the ear. Beautiful
is the morning of love with its prophetic Grim
son, violet, purple and gold, with its hopes of
days that are to come Beautiful also is the
and its rainbow side turned toward heaven as
we'll as earth. Young people marry their op-
sites in temper and general character, and such
a marriage is commonly good match. They
do it instinctively. The young man does not
blue, and my over vehemence requires to be a
a little modified with somewhat of dullness
and reserve" When these opposites come to-
gether to be we'd, they do not know it, but each
thinks the other just like himself Old people
never marry their opposites; they marry their
similars, and from calculation. Each Of these
two arrangements is very proper. In their
long journey these young opposites will fall
out by the way great many times, and both
get away from the road but each will charm
the other back again, and by-and-by they will
be agreed as to the place they will 60 to, and
the road they will 60 by, and become recon-
ciled. The man will be nobler and larger for
being associated with SO much humanity unlike
himself; and she will be nobler woman for
having manhood beside her that seeks to cor
rect her deficiencies and supply her with what
she lacks, if the diversity be not too great, and
there be real pety and love in their hearts to
begin with. The old bridegroom, having a
much shorter journey to make, must associate
himself with one like himself A perfect and
complete marriage is, perhaps as rare as per-
feet personal beauty. A real happy marriage
of love and judgment, between noble man
and woman, is one of the things so very hand
some that if the sun We're, as Greek poets
fabled, god, he might stop the world in order
to feast his eyes with such a spectacle.-7heo-
