The New Orleans Exposition.

In a material and industrial point of
view, will be the most important event
for the South, that has ever occurred.
Every portion of the civilized world is
taking lively interest in it and it will
be grand beyond the most sanguine ex>
pectation of its projectors. There will
be shown and protrayed the products,
resources and advantages of all parts
of the world, and especially will this
be so of the United States and more
particularly, it is to be hoped, Of the
Southern States. Thousands of people
of every nationality will be in atten-
dance and various exhibits shown will
be carefully scrutinized. Hundreds Of
people will be there prospecting for
new homes, with the hope and desire
of lettering their condition, and by
the exhibits made will they judge of
the different sections of country. 1t
therefore behooves every Southern
Stationery Southern county, to put
its best foot forward and make full
and complete display of its products
and natural and industrial resources.

Tennessee Timber.

Southern Lumberman.
Tennessee has within her borders an
almost inexhaustible supply of the
finest white oak and second.growth
hickory. Heretofore the supply of
these woods nearer to the manufacto-
ries has precluded the shipping of
them, but now, as this supply is get
ting pretty well exhausted, we may
expect a good demand for this valua-
BILE timber. There is no doubt that
the Tennessee white~oak is equal, if
not superior, to any now on the mar
ket, and with liberal concession on
the part of our railroads in the way of
rates, our mill men will be able to put
a large amount on the market at an
early day, and once introduced, it will
surely recommend itself. We have
abundance to supply the agricultural
implement manufacturers and ship
builders of the United States for some
time to come. While our white hick-

as a sure cure for the bite of mad
dog: "Elecampane is plant we'll

boil down to half pint; strain, and
when cold drink it, fasting at least six

Does it Pay A.?

Judge Cobb, from the bench in
Tuskeegee, some months ago, declared
that wherever prohibition prevailed in
his circuit, crime had decreased.
Judge Box, from the bench, has
made similar statement as 10 its effect
upon the prohibition localities in his
circuit.
1t has had the same effect in Judge
Clayton's circuit, as Solicitor Lee can
attest, and Solicitor PurgiSon is wits
ness to the same thing in Judge Hub
bard's circuit. Sometime since he told
the writer that prohibition had made a
sad discount on the fees of his Office.
And Solicitor Jones, in Judge
Speaks circuit, has publicly and pri~
vately repeated it, over and over, that
during the prohibition period in Lines
stone county, it did not pay him to 60
to the Limestone court. 1t paid him
before, 1t has pai1 him since, and
paid him well, Now, does prohibition
pay? Does it pay to do right? Does
it pay to close the food>gates of crime
and wretchedness ?-Tuskaloosa Ga

A STERLING OLD POEM.

Who shall judge him by his manners?
Who shall know him by his dress?
Paupers may be fit for princes,
Princes fit for something less.
Crumpled shirt and dirty jacket
May beclothe the golden ore,
Or the deepest thoughts and feelings;
Satin vest can do no more.
There are streams of crystal nectar
Ever flowing out of stone;
There are purple beds and golden,
Hidden, crushed, and overthrow.
God, who counts by souls, not dresses,
Loves and prospers you and me,
While he values thrones the highest
But as pebbles in the sea.
Man, appraised above his fellows,
Oft forgets his fellows then;
Observation-Disclosures, remember,
That your meanest kines are men!
Men of labor, men of feeling,
Men OF thought, men of fame,
Claiming rights to golden sunshine
In mans ennobling name.
There are foam embroidered oceans,
There are little wood.clad rills;
There are feeble inch.high saplings,
There are cedars on the hills.
God, who counts by souls, not stations,
Loves and prospers you and me;
For to Him all vain distinctions
Are but pebbles in the sea.
Toiling hands alone are builders
OF q nations wealth and fame;
Titled laziness is pensioned,
Fed and fattened on the same.
By the sweat of others foreheads,
Living only to rejoice,
While the poor mans outraged freedom
Vainly lifts its feeble voice.
Truth and justice are eternal,
Born with loveliness and light;
Secret wrongs shall never prosper
While there is sunny right.
God, whose worldwide voice is singing
Boundless love to you and me,
Heeds oppression, with its titles,
But as pebbles in the sea.

DR.. McCosh, of Princeton, in a re-
cent address to the students said !:

The Newspaper.

No better invention to brighten old age,
No happier medium for training of youth
Has ever appeared upon literature's stage
Than free newspaper to vindicate truth.
The most eloquent orator can only
reach about a thousand men with the
passionate peals of his burning effort,
and that but once, and for one hour
while the newspaper reaches to its tens
of thousands of readers and is read
again and again for months, even years,
with the zeal and freshness which
warked its original publication.
The touching pathos and finely
rounded periods of the great orator
fall like leaden balls into water, quick
and penetrating, but sink at once,
leaving no marks or nipples. While
the carefully prepared newspaper arti.
Gle, like ragged stone, starts ripples
and wavelets that circle out wider and
wider until the whole bosom of the
lake is, more or less, influenced by
them.
The finest orations we heard in our
boyhood are so far forgotten that we
can only say, che was noble orator
and made a brilliant effort" but nc
word or idea is remembered; while an
old newspaper printed forty years ago,
still imparts the same bright and hap
Ply thoughts as its first appearance.
The average member of congress will
be put to the blush at the knowledge
and promptness in every day affairs o.

acquaintance with the current newspa'
per literature makes one feel at home
on all the questions of every day at
fairs of men and business, and fits hin
far better for the actual duties of life
than all the learning of the schools
A man thoroughly familiar with thu
current newspapers never seems
an ignoramus in anything, because hi
is necessarily, to some extent, posted

New York in the Coming Election.

There is altogether too much importance
attached to the alleged detection of the New
York San and the supposed Indifference Of
John Kelly, concerning the approaching elee
ton in New York. The influence Of the Sun
and the Iaarplot Butler is not to be despised,
but that they can control any respectable por-
ton of the vote of New York city or State is
not true. We have recently conversed with
a gentleman who since the nomination has
visited all the populeus towns and cities in
the great Empire State, and he tells us that
he never witnessed such enthusiasm as the
people everywhere manifest for Cleveland and
Hendricks. He made nospecial inquiry about
political sentiment, for he was in pursuit Of
pleasure and recreation, bnt everywhere and
all with whom he casually came in contact,
were outspoken for Cleveland and Hendricks
Not Democrat entertained doubt as to the
result, and hundreds and hundreds of persons
were adverted to who it was known would GER
tainly vote the Democratic ticket, although for
years past they had been Jealous Republicans,
Therefore, we say to Reformers everywhere,
be of good cheer. Listen not to the bluster
of the New York Tribune, nor to the mur-
murings' and innuendoes of the New York
San. In the former instance, it is prompted
by the corrupt Star Routers with the latter
journal, it gives vent to personal grievance

West Virginia,

Washington Post of Saturday says:-Hon.
Ben. Wilson, Representative from West
Virginia, dropped into the headquarters of the
Democratic Congressional Committee yester-
day. He says that in all his experience he
never saw so much enthusiasm among the
Democrats as now. There is no doubt what
ever, he says, of their carrying the State both
in October and November. Elkins may scat
ter as much money as he pleases, but it will
avail the Republicans nothing. Democrats
who seldom come out to vote will not only
do so in October and November, but they
will "work like beavers for Democratic sue
