The New South.

The rehabilitation 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 unpre-
cedented prosperity. Rich in soil,
blessed in climate, grand internal adj
vantages, nothing has been wanting but
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 hun
bred millions of Northern capital has
been invested in the Southern States,
and is now forming very 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 al
home. The next five years will show a
greater addition to the wealth of the
South than has any previous twenty,
and the best outcome will be a wealth
of harmony which invariably accom-.
panies union ofinterests. file South

The Art Of Dancing.

Augusta Sohlke, ono favorite dan
seuse of Paris and Berlin, and the prin-
cipal attraction of the viceroy of Egypt's
imported ballet troupe. is pasther dane
ing days, and is directing the terpsi-
chorean entertainment in Philadelphia
variety theater. She saws that Ameri-
can girls would make the most superb
dancers in the world if they were not
too lazy to go through with the requisite
course of training. They practice an
hour, and then begin to cry over their
aching toes. English girls are fully as
bad, and usually awkward, too. Ger
man girls, as rule, are clumsy. The
Italians and French make the best
dancers, as they are generally graceful
and not afraid to work. 1.-The dancers
toes" she asserts, ''should not get tired,
if she loves her art. No one ever hears
that the fingers Of good piano player
are so stiff and sore that he is unable
to play well. The dancers toes should
be like the piano players fingers

Sour arapes.

Every one knows tbs the homely
daughter Of the house who wears the
apron.
Not that it should be SO, but some-
how it has fallen to her lot, evidently
because she is more helpful than her
pretty sister.
The homely girl has the knack of maxi
ing things '.go' right.
When she enters the kitchen the stub
born fire gives in; the kettle starts q
singing; the oven a heating; the table is
strewn with raisins and spices and the
pudding begins. Her hands are SO use
full one often wishes they were not
limited to two.
See how she cuts, turns, sews, and,
10! things old are las good as new.''
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 boy or girl ask for
in a big sister?
In the small ornamental accomplish
ments of the parlor our homely girl is
not brilliant. That too-lovely- for-any-
thing waltz is apt to escape her
memory, but trust her in etymology
and the intricacies of photography. It
is not the strawberry-lipped girls who
bear off the mathematical prizes; nor
is classical nose necessary for prof.
cheney in grammar. Neither is an incli-
nation to freckle indicative of a cloudy
brain; and have we not all noticed how
we'll, how astonishingly attractive the
homely girl is when her ribbons are adj
justed?
She, too, has her devotees in whose
sincerity we are bound to believe; for
among our married acquaintance, the
wives we know would not be classed in
the beautiful nor heroic order.
No, indeed, they are faulty, everyday
people who have tempers and find them
difficult to control.

he Wanted TO Be Glued for Life,

A couple from away up in the hills
came to town yesterday to get married.
The groom, apparently about thirty
years Of age. wore clay colored suit
Of jeans, and carried in one hand a
black snake whip The bride, who was
scarcely more than twenty, was indeed
a blooming beauty. Making their way
to justice of the peace, and pulling
the license out of his pocket, the love
stricken man asked:
'.Be you the 'Squirep''
Il be- said the Squire; "what is it

slave you the power fur to marry
people and hitch 'em solid?'
eyes, sir.''
$50 it can't never become undone"
Eyes, SIR
Fire ahead, Squire
The Squire proceeded to business.
and when he got as far as the question
to the girl, do you take this man for
your lawful and welded husbandp'' the
groom heightened the ceremony by put
ting the following additional questions
to her, for he wanted to be "hitched
tighter nur wax"
"And you won't have no more to do
with Bill Sykes?'' .No.'' ..Nur Sam
Hill?'' "No.'' stNur Pete Jones?"
.:No.'
''See here, Sallie, don't look down
on the floor that way; that means you
don't know whether you will or not.
Look squar' in my face, Sally
Then Sally looked '.squar'' in his
face, and he continued:
''Nur Jack Powers?''
"No."
Here the Squire interrupted and said:
II don't think it's necessary to pin
the young lady down so closely. She
promises me to be your true and lawful
wife, and that's enough"
esquire, you don't know that gal
like I do. She's croquette. She firts
with every fellow who gifts struck after
her, and there are dozens of 'em. Now
I want all that business stopped; and
want it done here by law
$50 be it," said the Squire; "Sarah
Peters is welded to you for life, and no
power on earth can take her from YOU"
''That's the talk! Come on, Sallie;
you're mine! We're glued for life!-oh,
wait till pay the Squire"
He paid the Squire a dollar-all he
had-and left for his country wagon
happier than he'll ever be again.

Ooloring Diamonds.

5. Some very interesting and important
experiments with diamonds have lately
been made at the Paris Academy Of
Sciences. An experienced diamond
merchant bought not long ago fine
white diamond for $4,000. One morn
ing he gave it good washing with soap
and water, when what was his conster-
nation to find that it had turned yellow,
which sent its value down to $500. The
matter was brought to the attention of
the Academy, and experts submitted a
report, which showed that diamond
whitening is a fraud easy to accomplish
and as easy to detect. By plunging a
yellow diamond into an aniline violet
dye it becomes white, while at the same
time it loses neither its transparency nor
brilliancy. In fact, on making the ex-
pertinent, the experts had in a few min
utes transformed several yellow stones
into what appeared magnificent white
stones of fvefold value Take yellow
diamond. dip it even into no stronger
dye than violet ink, wash it with water
to remove any discoloration. and the eff
feet is immediate. The dried diamond
remains white. But, on theother hand;
the illusion is of short duration. Rub
the stone even lightly, and the yellow
tint is seen coming back again, and q
little further attrition with the finger
restores the pristine hue completely.
This discovery may entail upon many
persons rude awakening to the fact
that the stones they have are of far less
value than they supposed. and will ne

The Italian Maiden

A letter from Italy says: THE Italian
girl from the cradle is cultured in ex.
preston, in word, by action and by
looks. Her entire features, gestures
and motions are highly expressive of
what language frequently fails to con.
vey. Her words are soft and sugges.

ness of information and her graceof pose
never desert her. Perfectly unaffected,
she is not French, and completely

Pursued bv q Waterspout,

One Of the steamers of the Pacific
Mail Company, while off the coast of
Guatemala, had the rare experience of
being pursued by waterspout. It sud-
denly appeared near the ship. In the
midst Of the CONSERVATION the captain
ordered his course reversed, and soon
tho steamer was driving along, with the
waterspout in pursuit. Its crest was

The spout itself formed sort of

parallel lines through its whole length,

These lines were evidently ascending
columns of water, for afterwards, when
tho upper and lower sections became
detached, the accumulated volume of
water overhead Immediately began its
descent within the body of the spout, as
though it had been the valve of an inn
mense syringe. The water thus releas-
ed must have been equal to several tons.

received in return the desired book and
