The Coming Men.
From the Industrial South.

From the Industrial South.
The typical Southern man is no long.
er free handed fox hunter whose in.
herited fortune is lavished as long as il
lasts upon his friends, his horses and his
hounds; he is no longer the gay society
man studying etiquette as the finest Of
fine, arts, and cultivating his capacity
for conversation as the most valuable of
all intellectual gifts he ia no longer a
believer In classical education as the
hrst requisite OF gentleman and an in.
dlspensaole groundwork for celebrity in
ilie. The typical Southern man of 9th.
er days has learned new lessons in a
new school, and he is profiting by them.
He is taking more practical views of
hie. lie Is graphing more with the
robust realities OF life. lie is applying
his mind aud his muscle more TO &C.
complishing the substantial things of
life. lie is developing himself more as
man OF actual, useful affairs. lie is
training his spirit and his energies more
in the direction of realistic results and
less in the mere accomplishments, or.
lamentations, and elegancies of life.
1t is always wise as we'll as brave to look
facts in the face. introspection Of our
selves is not always agreeable, but il is
essential to Misunderstanding. and is
wonderfully contributive not only to
generous construction of the conduct Of
others, but to an unprejudiced estimate
or all changes that may be offered to us
for our advantage. And however the
people OF the South may look back with
at@
and associations of other days, as can.
did and intelligent men they must ad-
init that. industrially regarded. they are
in the new order OF things many i'm.
provements upon the old. During the
existence OF the institution of slavery
we had a noble race of splendid gentle.
men in the South; but at the same
time there were splendid gentlemen in
the North too aud both here aud there
the race maintained to the end, not
only without deterioration, but with an
increased and ever increasing develop
ment OF all the great manly capacities
and virtues, under the agency OF honest
labor of every description and the in.
fuences OF that bold and chivalrous
spirit of enterprise Characteristic OF the
around him.
The Southern man has the moral, the
mental and the physical forces adequate
to the attainment Of anything aud
every thing within the conn as ri mans
capacity to reach, and now that he is no
longer enslavsd by his own institution
of negro slavery he il a sturdier worker
in the rugged fields OF industry; his
is expanding his inventive
genius is awakening. Ere two more de.
cades shall have gone by, the wealth OF
the South will be the wonder of the
world; and we think we may safely say
that the coming men Of the South, the
men who are to guide us in council and
direct US IN energy, are the men who
shall have most turned their thoughts
to practical affairs involving the indus.
trial interests in their section.

DEATH or MRS. BETSEI NEWTON.
Died in New Salem, Mass, Dec ,. at
12:li O'Clock A. NJ of seuie debility, Mrs.
Betsey Newton, widow of the late Capt
William Newton Of this town, aged 50 years,
5 mos, and 10 days. Shs was born in Brat
tleboro, March %, 1900, daughter of William
aud Abiah Brooks Harris and sister of the
late Rev. Roswell Harris for many years the
successful principal of the old Brattleboro
academy.s She was married May IS, 1878,
by DR.. Russell Fitch, then practicing ply.
stefan at West Brattlrboro, and caLIe to this
town for her future home, residing for fifty
one years and upwards upon the farm and
the remainder of the time in the centre of
the town. She was woman of great indus.
try force and energy. In addition to her
household cares and labors, she would card
and spin the wool aud lax and make it into
cloth, and in earlier year, when the wnters
were more severe than latterly, she would 90
on snow-shoes wherever among her neigh
bors sho could render any esssanc, in
watching with end caring for the sick aud ad.
ministering comfort and relief to tue dis
tressed. She survived all her fathers large
family but one and all but one of the people
of her age in the old neighborhood where she
so long resided. On the morning of the irst
day of August last, she left her home to
make her youngest son visit at New Salem,
Mass, and never returned alive. A friend
pays the following tribute 10 her memory:
Born of Christian parents, she in early life
became a Christian, but did not connect her
self with any church until June 10, 1851,
when under the acting pastorate Of R,v.
Harrison Prescott she united with the Con-
gregational church in this town. All WHO
knew her would say unhesitatingly that she
was a Christian indeed She loved her Saw
Tor, her Bible, the house of God and the no.
ly Sabbath. Aged and infrm during the last
years Of her life, she filed her place in the
sanctuary when her friends believed she was
hardly able to leave her home. 1t was hard
for her to be deprived of the pleasure and
profit of the public worship of God. Her pas
tor was always sure to find hearty welcome at
her home and religion was always the well
come themo of conversation. As a wife and
mother she was amiable, loving, tender, gem
tie and patient And now she is gone her
children rise up and call her blessed. 1t is
believed that none of her lifelong neighbors
would speak otherwise than well of her. Nat
urally amiable, she was quiet and peRceable
in all her relations in life. Loving friends
and relatives mourn the loss of her society
and fellowship, but we doubt not, their loss
is her unspeekable gain. Blessed are the dead
which die in the Lord from henceforth Yea,
saith the Spirit, that they may rest from their
labors and their works do follow them"
