The NNe1Y SOufhO

The South is getting Its full share OF
notice nowadays. In TACT, more is heard
Of the South than of the West. At the
annual dinner OF the New England socie-
ty in New YORK on Wednesday night, the
speech which received the most applause
was that on the New South" The
speech was an excellent one, and the sub
ject was popular.
1t seems as if the North were ANXIOUS
to hear more OF the "New South" The
Northern newspapers send correspond
ents through the South to collect informs-
ton with regard to it, and reproduce from
the Southern newspapers whatever they
md In them of general interest about it.
This does not appear strange to those
who are familiar with the South's re-
sources. The capitalists of the North
who are scarcely able to get per cent.
for their money from any legitimate in
vestment at home, are turning more
and more their attention TO the South.
They are surprised to find that the chances
for profitable investments at the South
are so much better than they are at the
North.
When it was predicted a few years ago
that the site of the iron industry OF the
country would, in the course of few
years, be in Alabama and Tennessee, the
iron kings of Pennsylvania laughed at
the prediction. They did not believe the
stories OF the SOuth's wealth IN iron and
coal, and they doubted that the manufac-
ture OF iron and steel in the South would
reach any considerable importance inside
of half a century. They think differently
now, and many Of the shrewdest of them
either. haves or soon will move their
plants to The Southern iron fields.
The report which the venerable Judge
Kelley, of Pennsylvania, made after six
wee visit TO the South just prior to the
openit of Congress- respecting the
souths nanufacturing interests and I'M
devel6pe dresources, astonished many who
had only thought OF the "New South" in
sentimental way or from a political
standpoint. The idea that an industrial
South had grown to vast proportions, and
that its manufacturing interests threat
ened to rival those OF the rich North in
The course of a comparatively few years,
mad never suggested Itself TO them. Judge
Kelley's enthusiastic statements, how
ever, have aroused their curiosity to the
point of inquiry.
Now that interest in the South's re-
sources and advantages has been awak-
ened it is probable that her growth and
development Will be even more marked in
the next few years than it has been in the
last few, because these resources and ad-
vantages are of very solid character,
and will not disappoint those who place
faith in them.

Partisan society is about to revive an
old dance, of the SIR Roger de Coverley
order, known as the "Pavaue." AT the
reception given by Madame DeRute in
honor OF Senior CASTELAR, -four couples at
tired in Louis XIV. costumes danced the
''Pavaue." The dance comprises a series
OF grave and graceful gyrations, supposed
to be modelled after the movements of
peacocks. 1t is of Spanish origin,
was patronized by Catherine de Eledlcis,
aud was a favorite dance of maIl-clad
knights. In these days, when even
the nations chief magistrate is
invited TO express an opinion as TO the
style of dancing to be followed at the
White House, when grave Christian
ministers feel that they are 'called' to
attend the ballet for the purpose of arm
ing themselves with moral rhetoric for
the pulpits on the subject of the dance,
when the waltz is tabooed by matron
and critic, and waist embracing is
deemed an improbable waste OF time, IT
may not be amiss to suggest an examina-
ton OF the merits OF the ''aulddang syne,"
when the stately grace Of the bali room
was the serious study Of the gallant and

Professor Aobe is at issue with theI

rainfall, and ne stated as much in the
Franklin Institute in New York recently.
The professor also SAYS that very slight
elevation of the surface above the sea
level by cosmic changes is the probable
cause OF any changes in the amount of
rainfall which are observed.

An excellent scheme has been organ
lied in Chicago under the title of sour
Girls Cooperative Company" It's OBJ
ject is to do away with the joDber who
gives out sewing to the girls, and allow
to the girls themselves the profits. The
company has a capital stock OF $4,000,
that is, one thousand shares at $40 per
sbare-a shop and twenty five machines in
it. A knight of Labor advanced 500 to-
ward the success OF the scheme, and the
stock sells well. The chiefobject is to dis
tribute equable wages and yet ask no more
for the goods than the manufacturers.
The work is to be of the best, for il is the
experienced sewers who have started the
scheme and will sGperintend it. The
most needy will be given places first, and
it is purposed 10 take the girls from the
shops as rapidly as possible. Thus the
work OF relief for ill-paid labor goes on.
And the readiness ana good will of all
classes OF the country in cooperation is
the surest guarantee that free people
can redress their grievances without re-
sort to illegitimate means.

A supervisor of Westminster, N. Y,
named See, has method for getting rid
of tramps. Every person convicted, or
possibly every one accused of vagrancy,
is to be committed to cell which is also
tank, into which water is to be turned.
The flow of water is to be such that the
tramp can keep his head out of water
only by vigorous exertions in the way of
pumping or bailing. AS soon as he re-
mits his exertIons he will drown. The
idea is not new. Years ago the Peruvians
punished criminals under sentence of
hard labor In a similar way. The harbor
of Callao might be seen dotted
with small boats anchored some distance
off the shore. Each contained a criminal
chained to the boat, which had hole in
the bottom, and hand pump. The occu-
pants had to pump or drown, and as the
sun there is pretty hot, the punishment
was terribly severe, The proposition
of See is inhuman aud inappIicable.
The tramp Isn't criminal. He is
a vagrant. The State may have right
to force him to earn his living. but it has
no right to jeopardIze his life, torture, or
impose any labor upon him that is profit
less to him and the State.

Blaine's Misleading Statements.

1t seems that Mr.. Blaine misled at least
one man by his statement respecting the
condition and wages of colored laborers
in the South. One Of his statements was
that the average dwelling house of the
negro laborer cost about nine dollars. Mr..
John Perry, of Albany, N. Y, who IS a
large manufactures of stoves, lately
bought land in South Pittsburg. Ala, with
the view Of establishing himself in bust
ness there. Before going to his new loca-
ton he had plans Tor factory drawn, and
for dwellings for his workmeu. 1t is as
serted that, relying upon what Mr.. Blaine
said about nine-dollar cabins, he ordered
his dwelling house plans to conform to
that statement. When he reached South
Plttsburg he found that his nine-dollar
dwellings would hardly do for that
hourishing place. If he expected
to keep abreast of other
manufacturers in the matter of improve
ments he discovered that he would have
to revise his dwelling house plans and es-
innate for houses costing many times nine
dollars.
Mr.. Blaine ought to make trip through
the South. AS he is man of large intel
ligence he would see much that would be
of great benefit TO him In enabling him to
get correct ideas about a section of coun-
try that is at present attracting a vast
amount of attention. AS long as he de-
ponds upon those who were once known
in the South as carpet-baggers for infor-
nation IL is pretty certain that he will
continually make mistakes when speak
ing ON Southern matters.

skin, on the back of an antique horse
What is he doing up there, sitting on the
pack as on a chair, with his feet on each
side of the horses withers? That is milk
man from the country, and in that pack
are six or eight large milk cans. He is a
Basque, and he and his country do most
of this milk business. While we were won
dering how many of these pack animals
are needed for 100000 people, and how
much advantage the Basque takes of the
monopoly, down the cross street comes a
native leading two cows. and to the tail Of
each is tied the calf. He stops in front of
house, servant comes out with pitch
er, the man turns the calf about, gives
him moments hope and taste of reali
ty. These COWS are so motherly that they
will not give down their milk except for
the calves, which must always stand by
their side. This must be in the climate.
as cows brought from North America ard
trained to more generous habits soon de-
velop the same domestic purpose. The man
shuts off the calf, fills the pitcher, and

A Youthful Bride.

On July 5th. Mr.. James Hoover and Miss
Celia Wood were married in the parlor of
Rev. r. L. Green. The bride is a pretty
petite brunette, only fourteen years of age,
and came here from Canada with her SIS
ter, Mrs. Donald Munroe, with whom she
lived up to the time of the romantic mar
riage. The couple had been engaged some
time, and when it became known to her
family, they at once protested against it,
and when they found her determined in
the matter, ARRANGEMENTS were made for
her to return to Canada. In the mean
time, however, the sister of the groom
was appointed as her guardian, and upon
her consent to the marriage, a license was
quietly procured. Last Monday morning
she went down On the street ostensibly to
60 to the market house-but she clandes-
timely met her betrothed, and together
they marched before the minister and
sealed their VOWS with Hymens bonds
The surprise of her relatives cannot be
even imagined and is far from being de
scribed. The happy groom is about 35
years of age.-Roanoke Re0ieW.
