to the more calm expression observed In
the message.

In his recent message 10 congress,
President Arthur refers to the continued
decline OF the merchant marine Of the
United States. but makes no suggestions
or Recommendations. further than COM
nendine the whole subject to the wis

that no question OF greater magnitude
can engage their attention.

We desire to call atten ton to the
statement made by the Southern cor
respondent of the New York Tribune,
who is writing for that paper a sketch
of the industries of the South. He
emphatically says:
"The owners and managers of
Southern mills and factories whom |
have met appear to me to be gentle>
men of high character; and they seem
to have an encouraging perception
of the truth that the prosperity and
moral welfare of their laborers are
essential conditions of their OWN sue
cess as employers and capitalists. /
am inclined to think that they give
very close attentionlto the details of
business, and trust comparatively lit
tie to the judgment of sdbordinatss.
of course, ifthe time ever comes when
many foreigners are employed in
Southern mills, most of the condi.
tions which / have described above
will be changed. l hope it may be
long before the present state ofthings
is greatly changed; for | think the
operatives in Southern mills are
among the happiest and most truly
prosperous laborers that ] have any
where seen. The principal mills have
good schools connected with them
and nearly all children of the opera
tiyes attend Sundayrscheols. The
Methodist and Baptist churches appear
to be doing most the for the welfare
and guidance Of the operatives, as
they are the principal churches m
the South, but other religious bodies
are doing their part. The operatives
do not appear to be regarded as quite
SO distinct or separate class here ss
in New England. They belong more
to the body of the people"

way back, as nothing of the house
could be seen. 1t was three days
before they could find the house, which
was finally done by sounding wi1h
a pole. They dug through the drift
and found the young wife as comfor,
table as could be expected for a girl

On proceeding to investigate they

hadn't seen daylight for week, but
we're making the best of the situation.
