Manufacturing in the South.

Reports from the South indicate a
great revival of manufacturing indus
tries in that section. Cotton facto-
ries. especially, are fourishing, and
enjoying prosperity unknown in the
New England manufacturing districts.
One obstacle to the successful intro
duction of a varied system of manu-
features is the delusion that the work
requires a great deal Of ''capital,"
whereas energy and determination
are the chief requisites. Manufac-
tures.are gregarious (; there is sym.
pathy between them that causes
them to group together. 1t is sheer
waste of time for an idle population
to point to their rich soil, fine timber,
water power and beds Of coal and
ore, aud call on somebody in the East
or in Europe to come and work up
these cheap materials into fabrics.
The solicited labor and capital will
not come because they will argue that
If the boosted advantages really ex-
list in the vicinity, the resident popu.
lation will improve them. We trust
the people Of the South will 90 reso-
lutely to work and make fortunes Of
their own resources, inaugnating
manufactures on small scale, put
ting in little capital and plenty Of
work, employing all the idle persons
in the vicinity, and managing their
business with frugality and Judgment
They will soon be surprised and de-
lighted with the RESULT Western

The day following our centennial

friend had invited one Of the South
Carolina soldiers into the saloon to
pht another turf on the buried hatch
ct. While standing at the bar a
stranger came in. Tho Carolinian
suddenly dropped his glass and close
" eyed the stranger. His gaze was
40 steady and peculiar that the friend
began to be alarmed and to fear that
the Ratchet was about to be dug up
again. Directly the Carolinian asked
the stranger if he knew him. There
was no recognition, whercupon the
Carolinian asked him if he was not
in the late war. EYES," was the re-
ply. "And yon were once stationed

"Well, thought so,' replied the
Carolinian, and, raising his hat, show

And 90, then and there they decora-

The Country Press.

There are few people who do the
country papef full Justice. Most every
body Is incli4 Jed to look away over the
shoulders of the country editor, to
some paper printing more reading
matter, and then make comparisons.
There are people who actually believe
it impossible to find a person with
common sende, with industry or with
brains in tho Office Of a country news
paper can have no charms for them
unless it cal be mystitied under a
strange pera onality, and in buying a
COPY they proceed upon the same
grounds as ~ the purchase Of bar
of soap-theE would rather have one
that comes from the city, because it
must necessa rily be 80 much better 10
every sense than a homo production.
The same man would laugl, at you if
YOU should refuse tn patronize the
cross roads mill, because you be
lieved you h Id rather get your -four
from the city. The country newspa-
per is one Of the most important at
tributes Of Q very town in the United
States. When a colony settles any
where with the intention Of building
a village, the first thought is a news
paper; the press is thus in the very
vanguard of civilization. It is the
useful agent in every place Of pro-
gress and gro with. There is not an
other single power that can do so
much good, patient work in the way
of building zip local newspaper: It
is not altogether important how it is
edited, whether with ability or not,
so that it I've conducted with an in
dustry and enterprise at least side by
side with the town-if it can afford
to keep a few years in advance it is
all the better. A country paper that
had little else than advertisements
would be an immense help to any
place, for advertisements constitute a
most reliable index to the character,
size, business and general condition
OF the town. 10 the stranger VINO
may have loo ked in prospective way
