Story Writing and Story FEELING.

Charleston News and Courier
The Rev. Edward E. Hale, of Boston,
has written some entertaining stories for
women and children, for he has vivid
imagination and is well versed in ''the
art Of putting things" when he has
nothia- - 3epond os, but his own inven-
5-et# r.r. satt II . rev
81. -...... Il. -rJ47,., II acts enDarraoo
him, and he would rathar write rO-
nance for Continental currency than to
confine himself to an exact statement of
things as they really exist and receive
his pay in legal tenders. This, at least,
is a reasonable inference from the adj
dress recently delivered by Mr.. Hale be-
fore the Norfolk Club, in Boston. Talk
ing of the south, he said:
There is not one of the ten states late
ly in rebellion that can borrow a dollar
at par, that can build a mile of railroad,
that can establish a system of common
schools. that can administer justice be-
tween man and man, that can induce
hundred emigrants to come in from Eu-
rope, or that can run an exposition.
Now, why should such men as that be
intrusted with the government of the
United States"
Mr.. Hale has forgotten, if he ever knew
it, that the war is over: and he knows,
or should know, that the statement we
have quoted is honey-cOmbed with false
hoods. The bonds of North and South
Carolina, Georgia and Alabama range in
price from 102 to III. Florida has more
than doubled her population since the
war. There is not one of 1.-THE states
lately in rebellion" in which the devel-
opement of railroads and manufactures
has no been rapid and substantial.
There is not one of these states which
has not a common school system. There
is not one of the southern states that has
not secieved a large addition to its popu-
| lation from the prosperous states of New
England. Foreign immigrants have
been pouring into Texas since the war,
and year by year the wonderful natural
advantages of the south are attracting
constantly increasing investments of for
eign capital. And, as for expositions, we
"point with pride" to Atlanta and New
Orleans.
Mr.. Hale knows all this, or he is
shamefully and inexcusably ignorant OF
the history of the times. If he is ignor
ant he -t9uH seek f"c instruction.
