A Rich Mfaeral Country.
From the Washington Nation,

II the South could have but five or six
years of uninterrupted peace and quiet
there would be vast change wrought
in the character of its people and pur-
suits. 1t has every advantage which ma
ture can give TO encourage the manu-
facturer, but lacks the skill and capital
necessary to develop it. And TO obtain
this necessary, there must be perfect pro-
lection by the law, perfect tranquility,
and spirit among the native population
OF welcome to the bona fde immigrant
who comes with strong arms or with
capital to aid the material growth OF the
State.
Perhaps the most favorsbly located
section of the country in the entire
South is what is known as the Great
Kanawha Valley lying in West Virgin
ia, and extending from Tennessee to
Ohio. The river which cuts down
through the hills and opens up the vast
mineral wealth of this favored region is
now being improved under the direction
of the General Government, Congress
having already appropriated nearly half
q million of dollars for the work.
The Chesapeake and Ohio Railroad
also traverseS the valley, and Is COM
pleted from Richmond to the Ohio river.
The hills contain five or six workable
veins of the best splint, camel and Bit
luminous Goals, and, in addition TO the
ordinary carbonate iron ores, which sre
found in the coal regions, there is large
~cs 1hlooH haplv IN tho uiN
Unity of Davis Greek. The carbon ates
are found at the surface diggings in the
form of brown hemstites. In aditlon to
the coal and iron formations the KaDaw-
hs possesses very valuable salt wells, at
which salt is now manufactured at the
very minimum of cost. When this is
taken with the cheap fuel, 1t is easy to
behold in the future the location in the
Kama VIVA of all those manufactures into
which salt enters as principal factor.
The lumber regions of the Elk, New,
Gsuly and Coal rivers, all emptying
into the Ksnawha, and almost unbroken
forests Of the finest poplar oak. ash, pine
and walnut timber. And finally, as if
nature had not already done enough for
this wonderful valley, the West Virginia
papers give accounts of favorable lndi-
cations OF rich oil discoveries. The trans
portation is excellent by river to the
Ohio, and thence to all parts OF the Miss
issippi valley, while by the Chesapeake
and Ohio Railroad 1t is only 800 miles to
tide water.
The valley possesses an orderly, law.
abiding population, but without wealth
for the proper development of its great
natural advantages. 1t was already be-
coming known TO the world in 1873 when
the panic suddenly stopped enterprise OF
every description. When the country
once more becomes prosperous the Kan.
swhs will without doubt make rapid
strides as manufacturing region.

Mr.. MOrtOn's Letter.
the Richmond Wing.

FROM Une
Senator Morton's recent letter gives q
sullen and partial adhesion to the South
ern policy of President Hayes. Between
every line of it may be read q protest
against, as we'll rs confession OF, the nee.
essity of curbing tor while the DISPOSE
ton of the Radical elements to inaugur-
ate a "rule or RUM war within the ranks
of the Republican party. There is ALEC
apparent q purpose to keep up record
OF responsibility for the recent concil-
istory measures of the Administration,
and so 10 prepare standing ground for
the array of extreme forces IN the Con-
gressonal canvass in 1878. For 1t Is ev.
Ident that Mr.. Morton's surrender is only
conditional upon the Presidents accept
ing his construction of the Presidential
objects, and that in attempting to create
a popular Misrepresentation as to them
he is preparing the issues of the future
conflict. The game is either to lead Mr.
Hayes afar off from the path upon
which he Is tresding now, to win from
him by false friendship the concessions
which he will not make to threats, or, If
this device should fail, to srrsign him
at some favorable opportunity as false to
the Republican party and as aiding the
South to reap the substantial fruits OF
victory gained by the North. Mr..
HAYES has only 10 stand firm to confound
all these plots of the disappointed Rsdi.
calls. The real danger lies not IN the
enmity, but in the friendship of such men
as Morton and Blame.

His Care for the Calf.

The Toronto Globe prints the follow
ing as 50 very amusing occurrence" which
happened on board the Cumberland, on
the occasion Of her striking the rock
near Bruce Mines: "Among her passen.
gers was a farmer, who had with him
his wife and family. In order 10 be
able to stock his farm in Goshen with a
superior class of animals, he, before
starting on his journey, bought 'hrst-
class calf for which no paid 500.
When the steamer struck the rock the
crash which followed was, to our farmers
ears, like the crash Of DOOM sHd for
getful of her whom he had promised to
love and protect, and the olive
branches of the family, he thought only
of that calf and grasplng two life-pre-
servers he ran to the place where 1t
was tied, and, putting one ofthem around
the calf, he buckled the other around him
self, and prepared to fight the waves for
the life OF himself and his dear cali,
totally unmindful of the danger which
menaced his old woman and children
When the danger was passed, those
who witnessed his anxiety for the safety
of the calf, proposed presenting him
with pair of life preservers for their
special service in case of future mis-
hsps."

Why ships are Improbable.

New York shipping Llst'
A prominent Boston ship owner
writes that ships are Improbable at
present because there are too many ct
them. The carrying trade of the At
lsntic, moreover, has passed largely into
the hands of steamers. Much OF our
.cossting trade, of which we retain the
monopoly, is conveyed by railroad.
The coal trade is gradually being mono.
polized by steamers, to the detriment OF
sailing vessels. In every department OF
commerce change is the order of the day.
British ship-owners, like our own, have
overdone the business; they have more
idle tonnage this day laid up than We
have. 1t is unfortunate that our ship
owners have so few steamers. The lie
of ship is estimated at twelve years, and
if we only have patience and cease build
ing for few years we may hope Tor a
revival. Remove all restrictions from
materials, hold on to what we already
have, and be ready when the carrying
trade revives to take advantage
of it, and We shall then be
in lair way of regaining what we have
lost,

Paris letter In the New Orleans Times.
That tough little statesnsn, NJ. Thiers
has entered upon his eighty-Ant year,
and may live 70 be called again TO tho
helm of affairs in France or to see the
Third Empire. Who knows2 At present
he IL hale and hearty, and his walk, car.
rage, dress and conversation are not
those of an old MAN. he wears neither
whiskers nor mustaches and like the
Iron Duke of England, shsves himself
with an untrembling hand; indeed, the
morning hour devoted to the razor is
his favorite time for receiving visitors
Conversation does not divert his atten-
tion or put his chin IN peril; he goes
and comes, his face hidden in white suds,
from visitor to looking glass and back,
gestiouls.ing with his brush, and with it
punctua,ing and emphasizing his srgu-
ment. His faith that he will liveto cele-
brate his hundredth birthday is unimpsir
ed. He has never known what q headache
$50 he says and has no infirmity but
nervous twltch of the eyelids. This
health he ascribes to his excellent and
unabused digestion. "When q man."
says the octogenarisn ex-President, "has
not good digestive powers he has no
business in the world" His wonderful
memory and earning conversation make
him the delight of his Little circle Of
friends and visitors. "Old age" he says,
must take an interest in everything and
be Itself disinteresied If outh is a ro-
nance, old age is history" Prince
Orlotf and Lord Lyons, the Russian and
British Ambassadors at Paris, are among
his most intimate acquaintance. His
litel ary and artistic treasures, which the
Communists scattered so furiously, have
been restored in all their prestlne gloryi
notably his Fiorentine bronzes and 1tal-
ian paintings. In the matter of books
he lacks that devotion to cream paper,
Russia leather bindings and big margins
which characterize 80 many lovers OF the
library. Books he regards as tools
wherewith to work, and he annotates
copiously. Finally, he is one OF the best
of Catholics. II often invoke God" he
says; ~ am happy TO believe in his ex-
istence, which lunstics and ignorsmuses
deny, but in which educated men find
thar consolation and hope"
