PHEsTOk's mIsFORrUE rs.

The recent speech Of General John s.
Preston was enough TO stir the stones Of
the south to mutiny. He seemed utter
ly unable to understand the pitiless and
memorable logic OF events, and de-
livered g speech which was 80 violent,
malignant and inappropriate that the
public was at loss whether to bestow
their contempt for fanatic or pity for O
morbid dOtsTd. The latter feeling pre-
vailed. When we read General Pres
toms iDcoherent rawlings, we felt that he
was Gctusted by some unknown causes
which he had not the philosophy to for
get. But the cause of the canker that is
cOrroding his heart Las at last been ex-
planned. We learn from the New Or
leans Times that General Preston is
bTOther-in-lsw Of General Wade Hamp-
ton, and comes Of the bluest blood Of
South Carolina. He was an immensely
wealthy man before the war. He at one
time had 2 vast landed interest in Lou
isiana and Mississippi. He sold his
Houmas estate, situated in the parish of
Ascension, to Mr.. John Barrow, lust be.
fore the war, for one million dollars,
which was paid in cash. This, the first
estate Of the south, consists of
i've Plantations: Riverton, Don.
aldson, Clark, Conway and Orange
Grove. There are fifteen thousand
acres IN the Houmas estate, OF
which about six thousand are now IN
der the highest cultivation. General
Preston, while in Louisiana, was one of
the most accomplished gentlemen of
his day. Although be owned these val
liable properties here and in Mississippi,
he made his home in Column
bis, South Carolina. His resi-.
dence then was a marvel of lux
ury, regulated by refined and schol- |
arly taste. 1t was the finest residence |
in the Palmetto State, the ideal southern
gentleman's home. General Preston
was reared up TO believe that South Car
olina could not be wrong. He is now a
very old man. His estates are gone from
him, an the home where his people

hsd lived for three generations was de-
stroyed by the torch Of Sherman's
army. The Fifteenth corps did its work
right well, and the old man is homeless.
His sons died in battle. The gentle,
manly soul OF one went up to heaven
through the smoke which wreathed
the battling legions at Shiloh. Sadly
did 8 few comrades lay him
down after that ill-stauej field,
which brought mourning sobs into so
many homes. A soldier and gentleman
died when young Preston bit the dust.
He sleeps on the banks the Tennessee,
and the breeze, moaning through the
pines, chants forever his funeral dirge.
The old man is alone. By reason ofcir-
cumstsnces, well understood by his
friends, he ought not to be so bitterly
condemned. The sentiments he gave
utterance to are not those Of his social
type in the south. In fact, we know of
no other man, Of equal social position
with General Preston, who concurs with
him. This unfortunate utterance came
first after the gallant reception of South
Carolinians at Bunker Hill. Take it all
in all, it was unfortunate, but it only re-
fleets the sentiments Of broken-down
old man, who although still repre-
sentative man, socially, is not so
in any other respect. The cslsmi-
ties which have befallen himself
and his people, he lays at the
gates Of the New England abolitionists,
who, he considers, famed the anti
slavery sentiment OF the north into q
fame, and he can see only our side. In
the graves of his children he has buried
all save bitter remembrance, and the
smoke Of his burning house rises up and
hides the olive-brsnch Of peace. With
a pathos which is most touching, he
said: 81 tremble to lose your esteem
and approval. ! beg you remember my
gray hairs, and be charitable to one who
gave all he had save a life now unutter-
ably lonely, that you might be free"
We have full faith in the good feeling
and kindness of our northern country
men. In spite Of the desire of partisan
journals and party men to linduce diff
ferent belief, the north will see in Cen
eral Preston's speech the sentiment OF
scholarly, bitter man like their own
Wendell Phillips, who said he wanted
"Grant for President until every rebel
was under ground" Neither of these
men represent any live public senti-
ment. They are both relics of the past,
and have outlived their usefulness.

PERCENTAGE OF TOTAL EXPORTS.
ARTICLES,

The Washington Chronicle in COM
menting on these figures, remarks
THAT more than tWo-thirds Of our ex-
ports are raw or crude products. 1t is
an axiom in political economy, that
country that begins by exporting her
raw products, and continues the prac.
tice, will ultimately end in exporting
her mechanics. At all events, nation
so well advanced in mechanical skill IS
we profess, as people, to be, can never
claim to have arrived at its maximum
prosperity. until it can show larger ex-
port OF manufactured goods than Of raw
materials. During the last four years,
our export OF raw cotton alone amounted
in value toSS17, AIS, 1853. The true policy
would be to manufacture the larger por-
ton Of these goods at home, and in so
doing home markets would be provided
for our other surplus agricultural pro.
duets. Home manufacture Of raw ma
terials and home consumption of sgri-
cultural products, is the true road to
prosperity" The comments Of the
Chronicle apply with equal force to
the south, which is tributary to
the north, just as the Uni
ted States is tributary to other
countries. The United States, in export
ing its raw material, exports its mechan-
les, and so long as the south exports her
cotton north she prevents the importa-
ton Of mechanics, capital and popu-
lation. No nation and no section can
be eminently prosperous which adopts
the policy Of the south in exporting her
raw materials to the northern States,
while the whole United States exports
more than two-thiTds Of her raw and
crude products to foreign countries.
"The south is rich in climate, rich in
water power, rich in magnificent rivers,
and rich in an abundance Of good land;
but it is not rich in its industrial system.
A people that raises broOm-corn, and
then send it away for hundreds of miles
to be manufactured into brooms, and
then buy back the manufactured article,
may well be ashamed Of themselves.
81 may people that produce cotton,
but do not spin cotton yarns; or
a people that use but do not
manufacture their own wagons,
carriages, wheelbarrows, and other i'm
plements Of labor. What the south wants
is the workshop and the factory; and !
in due season this want will be supplied,
as one Otthe natural consequences the |
changes produced by the war. Terri |
bic as have been the csiamities Of the |
war, the ultimate benefit will prove |
more than 3 compensation. In less than !
fifty years an extensive system CT man
ufactUres will be introduced into the !
southern States. The industry OF the
people viii spesd over broader field.
They viii make their own implements
Of labor, and at least manufacture cotton
enough 10 supply their own fab
Iics. The Bou Ia that gas and even now
is VIII largely disappear, and give place
TO q different south, more analogous 10

have assembled. The requirements Of
hotel-room and ballroom cannot be
better supplied elsewhere. The hall Of
the grand new Merchants Exchange
will be the roolniest and pleasantest OBJ
tainsble for such purpose ia the Unit
ed States, and there are half-s-dozen
large first-class hotels within a few
blocks Of it. OF all the national con-
ventions that have been held
by both parties, but five have
been held west of the Alleghspies,
and but two of these in the immense
and populous Mississippi valley. Three
Of them were ni.Chicago, and two in
Cincinnati-none west Of the great
river. All the rest have been on the
Atlantic seabosrd. Except the Demo-
cratic conventions in Cincinnati in 1856,
and at Chicago in 1864, the Democrats
Of the west have always had to scale
the Alleghsnies to take part in the ma
tionsl councils of the organization, and
Baltimore has generally been the favored
place. Now it is time for both parties
to recognize the existence of the west,
and the. fact that the center Of populs-
ton and Of political power is in the Mis-
sissippi valley. Above all, it behooves
the Democratic party to remember that
the star Of empire has reached a merid-
ian considerably west of Pittsburg; that
the life and home and hope of the De.
mocracy are in the west, and that many
millions Of our people have built up great
States west of "tha King of Floods" st.
Louis is the foremost city in the west,
the fourth city Of the United States in
population, the third in manufactures,
and no National convention has ever
been held there. Considerations like
these should enable the western men,
bers of the National committee to bring
the convention to st. Louis, but if they
can't do that we hope they will bring 1t
as far west IS possible, and tug to the
last against every eastward motion.

GOOD ADVICE.

The Chicago Tribune is q strong Re.
publican paper, but it is always able,
candid, Just, and we believe cares more
for the great interests of the country
than mere party success. In discussing
the color-line and the proposition fool
ishly made that the freedman should set
up for himself, the Tribune says: $50
far as this advice tends to wholly sepa-
rate the two races, it is wrong, weak and
wicked. The more ties there are be-
tween them the better fer the negro.
The maintenance Of the color-line is, as
we have often shown, an injury to the
whole south. The ideal state Of things
will be reached when nothing is done on
the color basis, when q mans worth as
a workman or an official will depend
upon the texture of his brain or the
strength Of his muscle, and not upon the
color Of his skin. 1t would be a serious
mistake for the negro to seclude himself
from the white, and thus deliberately
cut loose from the advantages which
superior education and superior wealth
bring with them. He objects to the
exclusiveness Of southern whites;
will he better himself by trying to
practice the same excIusiveness himself?
But 80 far as this advice means, that the
negro should helpihimself, and no longer
wait to be helped by others, should sever
all but manly ties between himself and
his white neighbor, and should limit
himself to giving work for wages, wages
for work, and friendship for friendship
80 far as it means this-it is right and
timely. We have almost taught the ne
gro that beggary is the divinely-ap-
pointed way to get church built or
school opened. This is a great mistake.
The southern black, endowed with the
franchise, protected by law and Injured
to toll, can get along well enough if left
to work out his own salvation. Helping
him to do anything but learn to help
himself would be mistaken kindness. If
we continue to treat him as pauper, we
shall inevitably make him a pauper.
Hands Off is the best policy toward
him and for him."
