!. The New Sonth.

The rehabilitationo of the South is now
being accomplished. and nothing is
more gratifying to the minds Of the gem
uine friend of this country than such an
assurance, The past season has been
most suspicious, and the Southern
States are now in condition of nnpre-
cedented prosperity. y Rich in soil,
blessed in climate, grand internal adj
vantages, nothing has been wanting bpt
mills and workshops to utilize this vast
internal wealth. But it takes capital to
plant and move such manufacturing In
terests, and money only will continue to
put these new industries in full and
successful operation.
Within two years more than hum
bred millions of Northern capital has
been invested in the Southern States,
and is now forming avery lasting chain,
especially adapted to, binding together
the hearts of men, BY binding in one
their seemingly diversified interests. A
new South a manufacturing kingdom
will be the result, and what is grown
here will he placed upon the market as
manufactured fabric, and every profit
connected Herewith will be retained at
home The next five years will show q
greater addition to the wealth Of the
South than has any previous twenty,
and the best outcome will be wealth
of harmony which invariably accom-
panies union of Interests. The South.

In Prison.

the enlargement of the old Massachusetts,

It was necessary to employ some Of
the prisoners outside the walls, and
selected man for that purpose who had
always behaved well, and who had but
q short time to remain. Very much to
my surprise, he objected to going OUT
side to work. This was so unusual that
] inquired the cause. He hesitated a
moment, but finally told me- He had q
wife and two children, who were ignor-
ant Of his being in prison. In the small
yellow house, he said, directly opposite
his cell-window and near where he
would have to work, should he go out
side, they were then living. Ho had
watched his children all. through the
summer. playing in a vacant lot Of land
belonging to the prison, directly under
his window, and SO near him that he
could see his wife passing in and out Of
the house, or sitting at her window. lit
tie dreaming that he had been so near
them for almost two years.
This man crime was theft. He had
left bis family in Boston andgone to the
western part Of the State to obtain work
but failing in that, and without money
to return, he took a watch. whose owner
had left it hanging in his Office, into
which this convict had stepped for a
moment to make some inquiries. In
the meantime, his wife. not hearing
from him, had come to Charlestown to
live, and taken this. tenement in plain
sight, and within 8 few rods 81 his cell

Not that It should Be 90, but J; some
how SC has fallen 70 her lot, evidently
becauseEshe sis more helpful than her
pretty sister.
The homely girl has the knack Of max
ing things ..gO right.
When she enters the kitchen the stub
born fire gives in; the kettle starts q
singing; the oven q heating; the table is
strewn with raisins and spices aud the
pudding begins. Her hands are so use-
full one often wishes they were not
Z limited to two.

Why. in her plant fingers lives the
magic of fairy wand.
Stern papa, too, knows well the worth
of his plain-faced daughter whose
dresses seem to keep SO long. Even
her lover. marvellous enough, is just the
solid sort Of man papa would have
chosen for her himself.
His eccentricities she can manage;
mammals headache she can soothe. and
even the baby itself yields to her lullaby.
The children say She is the ..bestest''
sister in the ..whole, whole world for
doesn't she mend the MANNED dolls and
clothe the naked ones?
Then, she is sure to find all the lost
tops, balls and marbles, besides being
intimate with those enhancing words
fairies, giants and Arabian steeds. But,
above all. she never ..tells on you!
What more could q boy or girl ask for
in q big sister?
In the small ornamental accomplish

is not the strawberry-lipped girls who

is a classical nose necessary for prof..
