Local Advantages and Special In
dustrieg.

0uSJf1es.
The fact that all cities profit most by
specializing their industries and concen-
tratiug their capital for the development
of local advantages and opportunities is
curiously illustrated by some census fig
ures from New Orleans, where the num-
Der of persons employed in manufactu-
ring has increased from 5.640 in 1870 to
19, 977 in 1880, the annual product grow
ing in value at the same time from less
than $1O,OO0,0 900 to $50, 800, 047. The
industries, the development of which
have chiefly led ID this growth, are essen
italy local, the chief enc being the
manufacture of cotton seed oil, which,
not known in any refined state in 1870,
now affords employmentto j, 600 persons,
and yields products of the annual value
of So, 000,0 900. The next manufacture of
importance which has sprung up is that of
tobacco and cigars-combining Kentucky
with Key West and Cuba tobacco. This
now employs l 400 people, and produces
large values. New Orleans also cans
large quantities of fish, such as are pecu-
liar to the Gulf of Mexico-the shrimp
taken in the latter being accounted the
finest in the woodland tropical fruits,
the refuse of which is utilized in the
manufacture of cordials snd syrups.
The Spanish moss which trails from the
branches of the cypress trees in all the
swamps, and supplies the Southern land
scape with one of its most charming
features, is made the source of another
special industry, being cleaned, bleached
and prepared for the mattress makers,
who find it nearly as good IS hair. 1t is
in this way that all substantial and per-
manently profitable industries must be
built up.

Marriages between Christians and
Jews, though allowed in Austria, are
still forbidden in Hungary, and the Chief
Rabbi of Szegedin having been asked to

The spectacle of outside Democrats
navigating Stanley Matthews over the
breakers IS not a very pleasing one to
the average spectator. 1t is to be hoped
the rumor that Conkling will oppose his
confirmation will prove true. How any
Democrat, worthy the name, can help
President Hayes pay off the principal
attorney in establishing his Presidential
title, it is hard to see. Disgust is no
name for it.-B0st0R Post.

posed he was joking, and laughed as he went
through the motion OF swallowing the drug
Jessup moment afterwards exclaimed that he
was all on fire. and 1t was then noticed that
the bottle had been emptied. A physician was
sent for, but human help was in vain, and he
soon expired. No cause can be assigned for the
commission of suicide though the act appears
as IL premeditated. He was previously In good
spirits, and went to the shop TO comply with an
engagement he had made.
