Making In the South.

4 If some statements ON the subject o
iron making, presented in II letter pub
Iishcd by MIR. Geo. i. Lewis, of TcnnCS
see, hc correct, Alabama, Georgia anc
Tennessee are destined to become, if moi
the future center Of iron-making in tn,
United States, the seat Of large and i'm
pOrtant furnace interests Mt least. Mr.
Lewis has been engaged in making iron
in Tennessee for forty years, and has
studied and experimental until he pro-
| irSscs to know all about it. He states
that pig-iron not only can br made,
but has been and il made in these three
southern states for less than SIG Il ton,
n price far below the cost Of making it in
the iron districts of the north and east.
The cost Of producing in Pennsylvania
IL put down at 5000 n ton /; at Youngs-
town, Ohio, at 5000 a ton, and in Indi-
ana at $3.50 n ton, while in the south it
ranges from Sl5.i3 n ton in Tennessee to
SIG in Georgia and Alabama. The cX-
PLANTATION Of this greater %chcapncss is
found in the abundance of charcoal and
good stonc-coal in these states, both to be
had, with limestone, ncar tho iron beds;
the mildncss of the climate which makes
winter expenditures nearly ~ light AS
those of summer, and the chcapness of
colorcd labor. The Alabama and Ten
ncssec ore il said TO be of II superior
quality, and II fnvoritc in the market.
When it is considered that the Pcnnsyl-
vnnia furnaces are now forced to send To
Missouri and lake Superior for ore To
mix with the different ores Of that state,
there would seem to he nothing needed
but capital to transfer II large portion of
the iron manufactures Of Pennsylvania
to these favored states of the south.

Criminal Statistics.

Some of the most curious and remarkable
Grim ina statistics ever obtained have Just bee n
given to the public by DR.. Harris, OF New York.
His attention was called some time since TO q
county on the upper HUDSON which shewed re-
msrkable proportion OF crime and poverty 70
the whole population-4S0 OF its a, 900 inhabi-
tsnts being in the almshouse-snd, upon lock-
ing into the records q little, he found certain
names continually appearing. Becoming in
crested in the subject, he concluded % search
the genealogies of these families, and after n
thorough investigation, he discovered that from
q young girl named "Margaret'-who was left
adrift, nobody remembers how, In a village OF
the county, seventy years ago, and in the alb
sence Of an almshouse was left 20 grow mp -
best she could-hsve descended two hundred
criminals. As an illustration OF this remar ksble
record, in one single generation Of her unhappy
line there were twenty children; Of these, three
died in infancy and seventeen survived to ma
turity. OF the seventeen, nine served In the
State prisons for high crimes an aggregate OF
fifty years, while the others were frequent in
mates OF jsis and penitentisries and aims =
houses. The whole number of this girls de-
scendsnts, through SIX generations, IL 900, aud
besides the 200 who are on record ae criminals
large number have been idiots, imbecIles
drunkards, lunatics, prostitutes and paupers. A
stronger argument for careful treatment 81 nan
per children than these figures could hardly be
found.

The most singular fact connected with the
proper motions of the SUITS IA that one or two
stars are flying through space with such enOr-
nous rapidly that the combined attraction OF
all the stars visible with the telescope cOuld
never stop them. Tnis seems to be eIpecIaily
the case with small star, invisible to the naked
eye, designated in astronomical literature as
"GTOombrio ge, $780," from the name of the as
tronOmer who first recorded its position. Toe
rate VI motion OF the star is about seven second.

seventy times the distance from the earth to the

tlbutiOn, masses, and number of the stars i
seems probable that the attraction of ALI tha
bodies in the universe can never stop this head
long speed, nor bring this star into an orbit and
that consequently it will pass through our uui-
verse, and leave 1t entirely in its passa 20

serVauOns OF the stars position three or four
thousand years ago, we could speak with more
certainty OF its destiny. We may expect that
our posterity OF q few thousand years hence will
by the aid OF the observations and tables we
shall transmit to them, be able to come to sfi-
mite conclusion respecting the age and the
structure OF the universe.-Prof. Simon Nstgcouab

A MOTHKR-I In LAWS EICrORY-The st.
Louis Republican relates this story: Mrs.
Mayne, stylish lady OF Philadelphia settled in
Belle Plaine, Mimi, some years ago. She
brought with her pretty daughter, Annie.
The two made 8 hltter in Belle Plaine society.
Ihey have charming city ways, and refinement
and mon y. They became social leaders, and
Annie hsd her pick and choice OF all the young
men on the country side At length George ?.
Giles captured and bore her aWay to matri-
mony, but not from her mother. In fact GILES
did not care to disturb the close relations that
had existed between the daughter and mother
She was likely to be very good to the Young
couple, and make quite an exceptional mother
in-lsw. She fitted up q home for the Young
couple, at cost OF SIS 900, and added 40 acres
OF land, and there was no visible reason WHY
they should not all live in clover. But tue
mother-in-law began TO assert herself at times
and upon occasions as the governing head of
that family, and it happened that Giles had his
views too. They quarrelled upon all subjects
religion, politics, and even the weather-and
the lstter became very stormy about Giles
hOuse. Giles began to 20 away from home TO
md little sunseiny spots, and one day when he
returned Mrs. Nayne and his wife were gone
They were soon heard from in Philadelpha,
Giles set up some claims 10 property, aud his
mother-in law contested them. The United
States marshal replevined the household goods
which the mother had furnished her daughter
withal, and the United States District Court
gave everything, bag and baggage, to the tcI-
umphant mother-in-law."

TakfR I'm Collar

In rooms to be lived in, simply white for color
walls and paint, as well as any extreme dark
treatment, should be avoided. The walls OF
ROOMS should be OF such backgrounds as will
best suit the compilations and dresses of the
larger number OF people. Delicate white inten-
SHES, by contrast any unpleasantness or want
OF perfection; extreme dark would make people
look white and ghastly. Neutral cOIOrs will be
fOsnd the Dest-generally some grey or cool
color that will contrast with the warmth OF com
plexlons. On no account let an absolutely pure
color be used for general surfaces. Nature pro-
yides no such color in pigments. Her yellOws
