America for Americans.

Behavior toward women, particular
" q wife, is totally different here from
what it is in Europe, and the sucials of
the two henlispIlereS widely ,iverge.
The American man has more esteem
md Difference for woman, if not more
consideration and chivalry; is willing
she should have more freedom; that
she should enjoy q larger degree of i'll
dependence, 1hato almost any other
European can regard as proper.
a Frenchmaii allows his wife large
liberty, to be sire, but it is because his
marriage is usually enc of arrangement
and interest and sympathy, and because
he does not wish to bU interfere,l with
himself. But the American allows his
wife to be free and independent when
he passionately loves her; when she is
his best friend and most genial COM
panioil Europeans gibe at our domes-
ITCHY: They say that we are 500 close
" married; that the mani is too much
|;undef the dominion Of The woman.
There may be some, perhaps a GUod
deal Of truth in the allegation. II there
be, it only sllstains the position taken
that an American runs serious risk
by accepting foreign husband. He
will not be very likely to yield her all
he mental room and spiritual space she
Graves, and has been accustomed to.
| She will be apt to chafe against the
bars Of her limitation, against the mar
rover conventionalism of the Old
World, where her connubial life will, IN
Ill probability be spent.
Not understanding the difference
between the Customs and pTecedents of
| her own and ojhet lands she will not
recogniEe tile Justice Of conforming
| thereto.
| She will not see anyt|lin, as her Illus
| band sees it, ncr will he see it as she
| does. They viii clash and gradually
60 apart. Her status will not and can
/! not be there as it would be here. IIer
place will be changed, but not her
mind. Antagonisn2 must arise be-
| tween them. lie Will think her reck-
less aud indiscreet: SHE will believe

Married persons cannot have too
much In common, too few cases FOR
disagreement at the outset, since. the
| inevitable tendency to wedlocIs is to
evoke discord, unless regulated by sym
pathy and nodded by affection. Very
slight cause may iii time breed terrible
dlssentions. and such cases us must ex-
list between Americans and Europeans
re often productive either of misery
o nditferentism. 1t may be old fash
loneu; but reciprocal esteem and love
are not undesirable in matrimony, and
they are most likely to bS assured to
American women by American hus-
bands. Our woneh maydemand more
than they should; they may have ex-
cess of freedom, they may be spoiled by
indulgencei but they have so long been
coddled and humored that any sudden
change makes them unhappy. They
find European. husbands, the best Of
/ them, very different from American
husbands, who never can be induced to
treat them as wives are generally
treated here. II they wish to be CON
Tented, to have Solid, satisfaction in
wcdlock, they Should hot turn theu

The Lake George Fruit Growers
Association.


The regular monthly meeting of
the Lake George Fruit Growers
Association was held in Magnolia
Grove, on the 7th inst. A large as
sembly OF the planters, fruit growers
and citizens, residing in the neigh
borhood of lake George, gathered
with ''baskets" and cheerful faces, and
spent the day, under the auspices Of
the Association.
The preliminaries of the society
over, the President addressed the
assembly on the necessity of CO.
operation by fruit growers in devel-
oping the true culture of fruit trees,
harvesting the crop, shipping the
same and, finally, securing the best
returns. In connection with his sub
ject he also stated that the Legisla
ture had granted to the Association
charter, liberal in charact er, under
which he hoped and expected to see
all the people of the nelghborhood
united, and assisting by every legal
available effort to secure a fair return
for their hard labor. He especially
dwelt upon the necessity of division
of the various branches and assign
ing them to such as will investigate
and study and compare results, and
in a condensed form present the
same in regular reports at the meet
ings OF the Association; and he
urged the establishing OF library
and devoting one room in the ball to
that branch, open at all times for the
use of the members. The address
was not written and we could not get
copy for publication. The above is
. only very meagre outline of some
of his views.
Mr. Hawkins read an essay on the
subject of marketing fruits which we
hope to get tor publication. 1t is an
article tull of thought, facts and an
ecdotes, and goou sense. MIR. Allen,
Mr. J. Green and Mr.. Higley all in
dorsed his views.
| enclose an essay ON rose culture,
written by Mrs. VIM. Duncan, which
ELECTED much applause and approba
tion. Since her arrival here, in De-
cember last, in feeble health, she has
spent much of the time in open air,
garden, walks, rides and Oh Tile water,
and will return, manitestly stronger
and greatly improved. Our climate
has done it ALL She turned her back
on prescriptions and doctors, and by
her own good sense, and the help of
our equable climate, has renewed her
strength, is cheerful and full Of hope
of long and happy future She re-
turns to her home with the regard,
love and esteem of all, with prayer
for her permanent return.
Miss Varnum and Mr.. G. Hawkins
then sung some interesting songs, to
the great edification OF the people,
who spent the remaining part OF the
day as they usually do at picnics in
this country. **

Fires in Cotton Gins.

lhe increasing employment OF small
steam powers, instead of mules, i'm the
work fginnin, cotton. makes the subject
ofprcvcntipn against fire in s!rs. machin.
cry an important one. Inquiry ;ato the
principal causes Of such fires, reveals the
fact that Il fruitful source Of fire is the
want of proper attention in lcvcling and
plumbing the gins, and from n0t Keeping
the properly oiled Recently the owner of
agln III Georgia, w:iD was running his own
gin iancicd tllat ii required more power
than usual. He examined the bearings
or journals. and finding them dry.
poured oil on them The hot bearings
set fire 10 the oil, which blazcd up iinmc-
diately and caught the cotton 20 quickly
that the ginncT hal 10 run fox his life.
This slight piece Of carclc>snc-s cost him
his gin house, whiri. Wa entirely con
sumcd
The use Of steam power h., naturally
resulted in increasing the velocity of
machinery and hcnrings or journals
heat even When properly oiled. When 4
gin is out OF plumb, or not level which is
often the case, the heating ol the boxes
and the blazing of the oil Is frcuucn,
Careful ginncr, find il profitable 10 have
an abundance oi water in buckets, near
by and convenient, To immediately throw
on the hot boxes in case of fire. In one
instance gin was brought for repairs, in
which the Rabbit metal in the box was
worn through by the journal, an1 the
latter had been running fully and inch
III wood. This journal was not only run
ming two inches out Of The plum, but was
running on pine wood, and lis failure to
take fire under the circumstances was 4
cause for congratulation. In very
short time it would doubtless have done
SO.
Another prolific cause Of fire in cotton
gins is the fact that the saws often get
out of the plumb. When this occurs
they strike the ribs 80 ~ to produce fire
enough to burn :! gin. In few cases
gins have been burned by sparks from the
engine. a spark arrcster should there
fore be used where this danger is feared.
Al! experience and obscrvant nersons as
surtS us that when II new gin stand is put
np by man who is careful and under
stands his busincs, there is very little
danger for the first two years. After
that time the machinery begins to be
worn, mainly by the light sand in the
cotton, which wears all parts of the gin
very rapidly. Add to this the fact that
IL also becomes ont of plumb and unleyel
and the increase o. danger from fire is
easily understood. AT this period great
care should therefore hc observed in the
directions we have mentioned. --Icfl
