The Wealth of the South.

New Orleans Times.Democrat,
A Western man, who has been a
close observer OF the South, that we'll
known orator, Col. Peter Donan, has
this to say of it in a private letter to
a friend in this city: "You ought to
be the richest and most prosperous
region and people on Gods earth to-
day. Louisiana alone has more nat
ural advantages and resources than
any two of the great Northwestern
States and territories put together.
So has Tennessee, so has Kentucky,
so has Alabama. Why don't the
people of these States go to work and
boom to the amazement of them
selves and all the world?"
This is a Western view of the stu
alton here, and very correct one. 1t
is only recently that the wealth of
the South has been fully appreciated.
We were not little surprised at it
ourselves at first, and the people of
Louisiana could scarcely believe that
their State possessed valuable miner
ais until it was proved to them be-
You'd the possibility Of a doubt. In
every field the South has shown itself
rich. 1t possesses the largest area Of
merchantable timber in America, and
the greatest variety of woods; it pos
sesses iron ore and coal closer together
in abundance than they are to be
found anywhere else in the world; it
possesses water power to turn all the
factories of civilization, fertile lands
without limit good for all the pro-
ducts of the temperate and tropiC
zones, for fruit, grasses and all else; il
possesses a genial cline, which al.
lows the greatest amount of outdoor
work, and which gives the crops am.
pie time to mature. Col. Donan sees
all this, and it is not to be wondered
at that he should feel astonished al
the undeveloped wealth of the South
Why don't we go to work and
boom it? he asks. We are already a
work here. There are difficulties il
! the wav Of thiS dpyplOnmpnt i'm thf
lack Of the necessary capital,in the
insufficiency of skilled labor, and il
sectional prejudices and SANDERS; bu
the good work has already begun ant
will be pushed forward, moving more
rapidly with every year and month
until the South realizes all that il
predicted of it.

FULFILLMENT.
BY MARIA L. DRAKE.

When we reach the shining strand
Where the waiting angels stand,
In the far-off Father-land,
We shall know,
In the happiness unending
OF blissful comprehending,
What our life-work meant below.
In the fulness, deep and wide,
Weary souls by sorrow tried,
Knowing, shall be satisfied
In His rest:
Finding in the perfect sweetness
OF an infinite completeness
That Gods way is always best.

THEY PASS AWAY.

Ex-senator YULEE, of Florida, who died
last week in New York. was the first rep
resentative of his state in the United States
senate. 1t was in 1845 that Florida was
admitted and Mr. YULEE took his seat and
it was the first year of PoLK's administra-
ton. AS an illustration of how rapidly the
generations pass away, Gen. SIMON CAM
ERoN is now the only survivor of those who
were members of the senate when Mr..
YULEE was sworn in, and the venerable
GEORGE BANCROFT is the only survivor
of the POLK administration. Among those
who sat in the senate chamber that day and
greeted the young Florida member were
GEoRE III. DALLAS, the presiding officer;
DAVID ATCHIsoN, THOMAS BENTON,
DANIEL WEBSTER, JOHN G. CALHOUN,

wHEATNOr PROTECTED.

The argument that the Republican stump
speakers are offering in support of the Re-
publican protection policy is that the tariff
on Manitoba wheat is a protection to Mime
sofa farmers. The fallacy of this argument
is very clearly demonstrated by Mr.. P. A.
FOSTER in an article recently published in
The Million. Mr.. FOSTER calls attention
to the fact that the price of American wheat
is virtually fixed by the Liverpool market,
and consequently it does not affect the
price of the article whether it is shipped
over the Canadian Pacific railroad or
through the United States. The tariff law
permits the Minneapolis millers to ship
Manitoba wheat in bond to Minneapolis,
and after milling it there. ship the -four in
bond out of the country again without pay
ing duty. The farmers of Minnesota know
that the tariff is no benefit to them, and
Gov. DAVIS and the other advocates of
protection are only making themselves
ridiculous in their attempt to deceive the
farmers on this issue.
