LIS Climate, Soil and Proaaetlons.

AiS OAAHAsAASs Jul anu
Tennessee, large as it is, lies q lit
tie outside Cf the great lines oftravel
from east to west and from south to
north, and has been little sought for
as q location by those who desired to
better their prospects in life by a
change Of location. The state is not
only great in territory, but immense
Ill all the elements that conduce to the
development Of the populous and
pros ferrous common wealth, as will be
seen fsoia tic acts and figures here
with presented. The state IS delight
fully located as to climate, and it
covers a territory 1 10 miles IN width
and 43Q miles in length comprising n
area Of II 800 square miles, which
seems to US in Massachusetts abso-
luteiy immense, but it is only rela-
lively large when compared with 9th
er southern and western states. This
area, large as il Is, has few unproduc-
tive or waste places Oh its surface.
The climate is extremely varied d, diff
fering greatly III different localities in
consequence Of the many elevations
which stud its surface. The lofty
of East Tennessee must
necessarily make difference III the
character of the climate from the
low-Iying valleys Of the west. The
valley Of East Tennessee, sheltered as
it is from the winds by surrounding
mountains, having an elevation Of
1000 feet above the sea level, must
present striking contrasts from the
lana-locked basin Ofthe middle ofthe
state, with its lower altitude OF TOO
feet. Exactly so We find in Vera
Cruz, Mexico, continual summer,
while Oh the top Of Mount OrizAba,
only IS miles west, the eye perceives
a region of perpetual snow. Divers
ty Of climate, of course, produces di-
versity in agricultural product; and
according we find that West Tennes-
see has cotton for its leading staple.
and that Shelby county, in that por
ton of the state, is the second largest
cotton producing country in the union.
AS the Kentucky line on the north is
approached, a gradual dimunition of
cotton is observed, and in East Ten
nessee the crop is so small as in many
places net to be apparent, the land
being coupled with Indian corn and
wheat and other small grain for which
the soil and climate is especially well
adapted. Nowhere, however, is to
be found in the state the harsh win
ters and the intense cold with which
every New Englander is familiar.
Although snow sometimes falls and
ice occasionally forms, it is always
dissipated in few days, and 1t may
on the Whole, be said that Tennessee
enjoys a happy medium climate be-
tween what are known as the cold
aud hot regions Of the earth. A sec
ton so abundantly favored by nature
IN this respects to be referred to here
after, cannot fail to be attractive to
all who are seeking new homes, and
of becoming intensely dear to those
who become It's inhabitants, and find
all the conditions of climate, location
and soil faVorablY to health, plenty
and longevity, and conductive to
their interlectual development. -Bos-
ton Herald.

Hany, If not majority, of the HANGS
@ 800 on 800 girls from the public
schools exanened for admission to the
nornTsl college gives Us the impression
that they belong to mere household pets
rather than to young women who ave APP
preaching maturity, and who are en-
gagged IN serious work. These girls ap-
perently prefer the nieknames by which
they are known in the family circle and
to intimate friends, and therefore take
pains to adopt them in their signatures.
In 80 doing, the public school girls are
not exceptional among our young wo-
men, for it is quite the fashion now-is-
days for them to grow SO enamoured Of
their nursery applications TINT they cling
to them as their fixed aud proper names.
They my even be offended when they
are addressed by their correct names,
which they imagine less pretty than
these pet diminutIyes; and some grave,
grown-up women will put Hattie Oh
Gussie, Mamie or Sallie on their cards
as if they were in pinafores still.
The fashion is American; but our pa
triotism can not make us grow fond Of
t. The nicknamcs which appear in so
large share of these public school girls
signatures would do very well for pets at
dog-show. When they are used to ex-
press the affectionate regard of near
friends and relatives, they also may be
pretty and appropriate, but they look
very silly in a formal signature, and
surely do not beft the dignity Of woman
hood.
We find, for instance, among these
300 names scores of Minnies or Mamies,
and only here and there a Mary, a much
more euphonious and dignihed name.
Jane is transformed usually into Jenny
Caroline into Carrie, Ellen to Ella,
Elizabeth into Lizzie and Bessie, Kath-
crime into Katie, Martha into Matte,
Margaret into Maggie, Anne and Anna
into Annie, and Harriet into Hattie
Such absurd names as these appear quite
frequently: Chattie, Lille, Mile, Til
he, Kittie, Rosie, Nettie, Bibbie, Aggie
and Maggie.
The great aim seems 60 be to manufac
tnre name which ends in ie and III nc
complishing it the finest expectations for
women who have names renowned in po-
etry and history, and of n sweet and mo-
lodious sound, are chopped up into child
ish diminutiYes. They convey an ideo
of pettiness, and do not belong TO girls of
dignity and character-girls like those
who are going to the normal college. SO
many of whom viii have their living to
earn. And yet these girls think It is
pretty to be known by such pet names,
and SO discard, as ugly and old-fashioned
the names by which they are ehristened.
What would they think to see a college
register which give the young mems
names as Jimmie, Billie, Bobbie, Tom
ME, Charlie, SAME and Dickie.
This fashion is extending among wo-
men, and girls are even named with nick
names only, as if they were always to be
nothing more than nursery pets. And
yet this is a period when women are con-
tending for higher consideration as ra-
tional beings, and when the range of
their occupations outside Of the dor4sstio
=rcle is constantly widening and grow.

"The Tariff Scare.''

Baltimore Sun: The "tariff scare
with which the Philadelphia press
sought, after Carlisle's election to the
Spcakership, TO stampede the Demo-
cratic parry througout the United
States has been localized in PennsyI-
vania, where there is no Democratic
majority to stampede. Elsewhere
the frank acceptancy by the Demo
cracy of its mission as the friend of
the people and the promoter of low
er taxes has given it new strength,
even in Pennsylvania it may be sus-
pected that if the true sentiments OF
the people were voiced they would
not be found to be ardently in fav or
OF the highest possible taxes on arti-
Giles of daily use and consumption.
Mr.. Carlisle's programme is 50 reason
able and conservative that only per
sons blinded by instrumentation or

to oppose it.
