woman; thinking her whimsical and
disposed to sport with The affections
of men. Had he seen things in their
proper light he would have known that
most of the sunshine OF life is the
result of female influence. Failing to
gain the affections Of Miss Cheworth
he made proposals Of marriage to
Miss Milbank, who, unfortunately tor
them both, after refusing, changed her
mind and married him. 1t was a
very unsuitable match. There was a
want Of similarity IN their tempera-
ment which led to unpleasant results.
She was little extravagant, disposed
to hold the reins, while he thought his
wishes should be respected. Even
their "honey moon" was not cloudless !;
occasionally fitting cloud presaged
the coming storm. 1t required the
binding ties of mutual affection to unite
them in union sweet. In about twelve
months from the time of their mar
rage a painful separation took place,
which startled Europe and America,
exciting the con jectases Of the gossip
ing world. His feelings of hatred for
his wife were deep, bitter and ine&tin
guishable. On hearing that his wife
was sick on one occasion he wrote
some verses in which he says: 81 have
had many foes, but none like thee"
With no bright sunshine ofjoy to cheer
his disconnected soul, he leaves his
native land to aid in liberating strug-
CLING Greece. He had a lovely
daughter, his Ada fair. he left behind
never more to see. He loved her with
tenderness which only a parents
heart can feel. He often thought of
his little Ada. In his last moments,
with his voice scarcely audible to his
friends by his bedside, he was heard to
say, ooh! my poor dear child! my
dear Ada-could l have but seen her,
give her my blessng!" Unhappy By
ron while less gifted ones could Sc
renely pass away with loved ones
around them in the family circle, it !
was thy sad lot to fall in a foreign |
land with no kind voice of kindred |
and love to cheer the sad
dened scene. Thou hast left on record |
an example no lover of home delights
will initiate. r. !

DESIRABILITY OF SOUTH
ERN INVESTMENTS.

The I1a0fsmaH points out some o.
the advantages Of the South for Judi
cious and profitable investments. l,
says:
1t is not at all wonderful that the
tide OF Northern money, brains and
] skill Southwark increases. Wide awake,
unprecedented, far-Sighted Northerners
have pretty generally learned that their
money is as safe, or safer, for good re-
turns when placed in the South. They
know that no serious strikes, except
the one OF year ago on Texas rail-
roads, has ever occurred in the South
or Southwest. They also have found
out that Southern society offers no field
for labor agltators, communists and
anarchists, whose presence in the great
Northern CentefS constitutes menace
to property and life.
Our Southern labor may be some
thing slower, clumsicr and less reliable
as to promptitude, but as rule it is
contented and steady throughout the
year. 1t is notorious that during GEN
eral strike periods in the North, in
Cendlary fires in manufacturing and
mercantile concerns are more than
quadruple the number that accrue in
times OF ordinary quiet whereas such
fears are almost unknown in the man
ufacturing and commercial Centers of
the South.
These are the factors which have
made possible the phenomenal de-
relopment of the Southern iron bust
ness in the last nineteen years. Had
our masters been forced to contend
with general strikes whenever a season
OF low prices necessitated reduction Of
wages, they would all have been bank
rupt long ago, and we would not have
a third of the furnaces, mills, foundrles
and machine shops now in this part of
the country. There has never been
but one strike in the Southern cotton
trade and that was of short duration. I
II we add to these advantages the
equable climate which makes possible |
operations throughout the year, with
minimum of Inconvenience in the
winter, We have a total of conditions
which account i'll large measure for the
success of Southern manufdc-
turing enterprises.
And besides, all these Southern fur
naceS, iron mills, foundries, lumber
and carpentry establishments aud cot
on factories are nearer the raw mate
'lals they consume than are any like
in the world.
With all these in their favor the
Wonder is that the South has not re-
.elved even more of the attention it
las attracted of Northern capital and

INDUSTRIAL GROWTH OF
THE SOUTH.

The 2raar5man. .Aiblishcd at Chat
tanooga, Tenn, in its issue Of Ian
uary Ist, publishes a table showing the
material growth of the South during
the past year. The exhibit shows the
number OF companies organized IN the
various lines of industrial pursuits in
each Of the Southern States, and is in
deed very healthy and satisfactory
showing of the material growth Of the
South. As the 2raHcsman says "The
tables indicate that the manufac-
turing interests of the South are be-
ing greatly diversified. During the
year I47 cotton and wooden mill COM
panies were organized, ard we notice
just below that list that the total num-
Der OF blast furnaces organized was
seventy-thrce. Cotton and iron, the
great Kings Of Commerce ARE hand IN
hand in the wonderful Southern de
Neiopment. During the year 5o+ min
ing, marble and quarrying companies
were organized, rs natural gas and
oil companies, forty-fve cotton oil
mills, $40 wood working establish
mcnts, eighty ice factories, ninety
eight electric light works, hfty-seven
gas companies and I52 street railway
companies were organized, most of
which were bnilt. The total number
of railroads chartered was 292. The
figures will prove Of interest and give
valuable evidence of the tendency of
the growth OF the South"
From these figures we learn that the
whole number of Southern enterprises
organized makes grand total of 81
8I4. This is pretty good showing
for one years work, and is evidence
of what the South is dong in TIC line
of industrial development. We find
from the Trademarks report that the
number of cotton and wooden mills
established in North Carolina during
the year 1887, WIS 20; number of
cigar and tobacco factories 1T; flour
and grist mills 81; mines and quarries !
50; woodworking establishment 81;
railroads. IS; carriage and wagon .
works IL ; electric light works 4 foun-
dries and machine shops 10; gas COM
panics 10 ice factories IS oil mills
4; street railways 9; waterworks 9
distilleries I; miscellaneous AZ max
ing a total OF SI4 industrial enterprises
established in the State during the
past year. This makes very salts
factory showing, indicating that our
people are fast becoming other than a
mere agricultural community.

On EVERY hand throughout The
country, and especially in the South
are to ;se seen evidences of thrift and
prosperity among our people. Tha,
we are gaining ground-making prog
TeSs and getting out of the old ruts in
which we have been running so long
Is apparent TO every observing person.
As the Goldsboro .Argus says, unless
all our exchanges are badly mistaken,
the South has reached point when lis
material prosperity seems assured. The
suaws which show the objection of the
wind are all without exception, drift
ing in the right direction. New in
duStries are springing up in almost
every direction Enterprises of vast
magnitude are moving from the North
70 the South, and various other straws
are tending the same way. Let us
then all take courage, and with the
enterprise and economical habits born
OF necessity, let us place our beloved
Southland along side the most favored
ot countries in material progress.
