An WeII-paid Tribute to Southern
Womanhood.
FAYETTEVILLE, n. C. June

FAYETTEVILLE, n. c. June lS.
| was glad to see you reproduce the
little compliment to our Southern women
clipped from that rabid Radical sheet,
The Chicago Tribune, Of issue 14th inst. !,
as follows:
George I. Seney's explanation is as hor-
orable as his deed. Said he: eff any one
asks you why | gave so much money to
the Wesleyan Female College of Georgia
tell them it was to honor my mother, to
whom, under God, owe more than to
all the world beside. | admire the South
ern women. There are possibilities in the
Southern women not equaled anywhere
else on earth
Coming from a Northern man, although
simply affirming what you and | knew
before, that will do. But is it not little
singular, that the typical woman of the
South, who is content to be aoond,,
and walk in woman sphere, should have
extorted such superlative praise from this
big Drained and big hearted son of the
North?
She never essays to shine in the active
arena of public life She is no blatant
rcvoiutlonist in petticoats, waglng perpet
ual but impotent war against the sterner
sex, III OTOeT lHaI sue may Dc as otuct
men are She lays but little claim to
tiimsy, tn>el art is but novice in logic
and the abstruse sciences affects not
the oNli,h oracuar or spectacled sapience,
aud revolts at the idea OF parlianlen-
tary influence or forensic display.
In word, she is simply what the great
Creator intended she should be, man 5
IIelpmate, and as the name implies the
wienan Of the family. Such her modest,
unpretentious province; and yet the class
has furnished from time to time imme-
mortal some of the most admired Queens
of Society," in the highest acceptation
of that much abused term. Feminlnlty
is essentially her leading attribute, as mas
culinity is that of her country men /; and IN
her hear0 she loatl es u man>woman as she
does q womanlv man.
Such Mr.. Editor, is my conception OF
the character of Southern women, and
such it Is saie to assume is that of this
noble philan,hropist. No wonder he fell
in love with the Ideal. thousand tha0ks,
friend SeDey, ior your munificient endow-
ment III her behalf but thousand times
ten th, u,and for this free. spontaneous,
we'll deserved tribute to her. You win
the hearts of Southern men by your right
royal appreciation of Southern women.
