Horace Greeley said: @Young man, 90
West" Bill Nye and several others did
so. They went there to grow up with
the country. Some of them grew up with
the trees-by the neck, while others of
less prominence were raised on the bottle.
We don't wish to be misunderst0o t0od.
Horace was at heart good man. But
to err is hun ian. He couldn't capture the
sweepstakes in the presidential go-as-you-
please and died. Peace to his ashes. Let
us draw the mantle of charity about all
that be did On earth But, it was great
oversight. He should have inserted after
the word, man the words e and young
woman" because 1t is written that il is
not well for man to play it alone. 1t
makes it more interesting with . partner
to 'sist.
We have always thought it little
strange that Horace could have made
such a mista ke. Suppose it had been the
good good HeEry Ward who had given
this advice.

Why were not the woman told TO go
West?

We say, what would have been the
suppOsition if Henry Ward had told The
Odore and the rest of the young men to
go West
Greeley was ambitious.
But he mHst have seen what trouble
would follow. When al these young
men were safely landed in the West they
had to stay. They lOnged for female so
ciety. They couldn't get home, in con
sequence Of an insufficient appropriation
for current expenses.
What were the consequences?

Labor AND MATERaAR4.
Attention Is called by the Sc. Louis
RqNbsieoA 70 tie very encouraging
growth Of cotton maaufactures IN some
Of the Southern States, which the Reps6-
Iican consider . phsdomenon that rests
upon explainable causes. " The late CEN
sus shows that the New England mills
pay an average price Of l1.65 cents .
pound for the raw cotton they use, while
the Southern mills pay only 1881 cents.
Here Is difference in favor Of the South
EN- mills Of 10 per cent. on.she raw ma
teEial to begin with, and il is estimated
that i amounts to q, ,Ooo, 900 . year on
the quantity Of raw cotton consumed by
the New England mills. JWhen IL comes
to wages the Southern mills have q still
greater advantage. A portion Of the
higher wages paid IN New England
is due, no doubt, 70 the higher skin re-
quired in the manufacture Of fine goods;
the fabrics made IN the South are rude,
consisting almost exclusively of yarns
and coarse cloth, in the making of which
no great amount OfskilI is required. But
even after making this allowance there is
and must always be large difference in
favor Of the South IN the matter Of wages,
and for good reasons. The New England
winters are long and cold the Southern
winters are short and mild.
Il i estimated in the coston manufact-
uring retnFnA, y given 10 the Iate census,
that n the New England mIIls could pro-
cure cotton and labor at the same rates
the Southern mills pay fOs them, they
would save 4ls. .OOO, 900 year. equal to
10 per cent. on their capital invested in
the business. Our Western contempo-
rary thinks it is impossible that these
fscts should not in time have an effect in
transferring certain notwithstanding work
from New England to the South The
intelligence. inventive capacity and man
ufacturing habits Of the New Englanders
win make them manufacturing people
for AL time 70 cOme, and enable them to
maintain themselves In extensive skilled
industries; but the fact that raw cotton
and wages are much cheaper in the South
and always viii be-must sooner or
