PROSPEROUS SAsHvILLE.

Nashville has had the good sense TO put
its surplus wealth into manufactures which
add TO the wealth Of the community, moi
into Insurance companies which do not
create, but only distribute wealth. The
cons queuce-and the sam results have been
seen at Admission, Ais, and elsewhere-is
that since the war Nashville has added i'm
menssly TO its resources and is on the high
tide of prosperity, a prosperity net thrust
upon it from without by circumstances, but
gained by energy and enterprise within. An
instance Of what is doing there is given in
that handsome monthly the Nashville Ar
tiSan: A idea of the magnitude of the
publishing interests of Nashville may be
arrived at by comparing the amount
paid for newspaper and periodicsl stamps
here during the year 1882, which
was $1l, 1877 80, with the came item from the
report at the postofice at New Odesns, a
city five timfs as large, which amounts 10
ouly S6805 So" Flstteripg as thi, compsri.
son is for Nashville, a city on the COMPARE
lively little Cumberland, what is it for the
the seaport of New Orleans, whose j%.tties
give passage TO the vessels from every cline?
And can Memphis, so placed upon the Mis-
sissippi as to become a railroad center from
outside aggregation, can Memphis regard the
progress Of Nashville without some feeling
of self.reprosch, with a conviction that the
Bluff City is not doing for herself all that is
due TO herself?

TEE COMING COTTON ExposIrION.

THE COMING COTTON EXPOSITION.
Ga Tuesday evening the Board oil Man
ayers Of the National Cotton Exposition
held a meeting in New Orleans, when a reso-
luton wss adopted that the president oil the
board take proper steps 10 inform the Prs;-
dent OF the United States that the board has
made preparations for the erection OF suIt-
able buildings for the use Of the WORLDS
Industrial ami Cotton Centennial EIposi-
ton, in conformity with the provisions OF
section 8, public act %, 1885, and that the
President Of the United States be requested
to issue his proclamation giving notice Cf
the opening of the Exposition on the hrst
Monday Of December, 1884. 1t now becomes
the duty Of the whole South to take
every possible step toward making the
great Southern Exposition worthy OF the
South aud of the country stlarge. 1t mus. be
remembered that the Exposition is no sftair
of New Orleans alone, or even Of the whole
State of Louisiana. IL is an affair OF the
entire South, and there what the South is
willing and able to place before the world as
vouchers for the high claims it makes TO
consideration must be placed. III our pee
pie do their duty the world will know OF the
vegetable and mineral products and faciii-
ties for manufacture offered by the South in
q way 1t has never known befjre. Our
readers we'll know that the Southern people
have long been held up to the world as a
laDguid, unenterprising and rather lazy race.
The people OF the South claim that brains
think and hands labor as diligently in The
South as elsewhere; now representatives
from our own States, and from distant lanes,
will come TO see what the South liz, OF what
value its claims are to stand prominent in the
worlds occupations and pursuits, and what
sort of people they are, What their resi-
dence and surroundings, and what their
character and behavior at their W homes.
1t is for our people at large 30 to iurtber or
obstruct the aims of the Exposition as TO
confirm the statements the Southern people
70 strongly deny, or to induce the world 10
believe those statements to be literal Truth.
In the coming Exposition every man ard
woman throughout the Southern country is
directly concerned. At the meeting on
Tuesday the newly-chosed direclor-general,
Maj. Burke, of the New Orleans Times, sent
in mis- formal acceptance of the important
position to which he has been assigned, in
language at once graceful and modest. He
said in conclusion: at now remains for US
10 prepare for a celebration in which the
whole world can join, and to show to all
that Southern pluck and progress do not
shrink from the task which has been set
for US by Congress, and that we j~oyfully
welcome. the invitation to make the chief
commercial city of the South The theater
for a grand industrial reunion, which shall
r%eunite, in fact, the people of our whole
county," The address was received with
warm applause, and a vote was taken ex-
pressing approval OF it. That vote ex-
presses also the estimation 10 which Maj.
Burke is held by the Board OF Directors.
