The varied resources of large sections
of country are frequently forgotten in
the contemplation OF some principal
product that Inns been brought promi-
nently before the public to the exclu-
sion of no less valuable and useful
products OF industries. California was
at iirstl known chiefly by its gold prod
ucts; the Southern States chiefly by
their production of cotton, rice, tobacco
andsngaro Andyet California,s annual
Wheat. exports exceed in value the
annual exports of gold, and inathe
Southern States there ARE. large aud
valuable deposlts'of minerals and ores.
IN Virginia, West Virginia, North
Cerolipa .Tenpessee, Alabama and
Georgia there dre granite slate, lime
stone. soapstone, fine clays, marIs and
phosphates. There has been as yet
little developmentlof the mineral ds.
posts OF the Southern States, but some
day., when the feverish desire TO 20
West shall have somewhat abated,
people may stop to develop the treas

ATTEMPTS TO GET A HUSBAND
Bottlebury, Of Camden, will never dive
into the creek to save another woman from
drowning. He saw a girl named Sparks
tumble in the other day off boat, and he
instantly plunged in after her, caught her
by her dress, and swan to the shore with
her. AS soon as they were on dry land
Miss Sparks gave a hysterical scream,
flung her arms around Bottlebury's neck
and tainted. Just then the father came
up with the rest of the family, and per-
ceiving the situation, he dashed up to
Bottlebury, grasped his hand and said !:
Take her, my boy, take her! 1t is
hard to give her up. 1t wrenches her
old fathers heart; but she is yours.
Bless you, my children, bless you'll
The, Mrs. Sparks cried, ard she said she
hoped Harriet would be happy. The Sparks
manifested their emotions by climbing up
Bottlebury's legs and pulling his coat tail,
while Harriet came to, and laying her head
on Bottlebury's shoulder, whispered, kiss
me, darling" Bottlebury amazed and
indignant tore himself away and fed. He
was arrested that afternoon on charge Of
breach Of promise and ON the trial the
jury gave Miss Sparks two hundred dol
lars damages. Bottleoury has intimated to
his confidential friends that if any other
woman intends to fall over board near him,
she will find it to her advantage 70 learn to
swim first. Adeler.
