What the South May Become.

Senator Blair, in an article on the south
in the Nav York Mail. says:
What a field there for future develop
ment OF wealth and for its universal diifu-
sion. The farest. richest. most powerful
OF all lands she cau, she is to be.
Make OF the south, with her $4,000, 900
OF people, great market. with consuming
power corresponding to her power to pro-
duce. Then the south (the masses who
use common commodties) will consume at
home Just as much as they produce. and
you OF the north Will, 10 one form or an.
other have a market for whatever you pro.
duce or have TO sell.
The improvement OF her common peo.
pie is, however, her only hope Equally
tfue ia it that her only hope is ours. One
people. one destiny. Oar labor, that is,
our people, must sink to the level Of hers,
or by the same means which have elevated
and improved our condition must hers
rise until her millions live in happy homes
and are surrounded by tho comfort, and
Injuries Of higher state.
The children Of the south have a right
to the same opportunities to qualify them
selves for the race OF life that are possess
cd by children here L incate them and
ther will become generation such as the
world has now here seen save Ia the rural
north
The south will become the bet market
IN the world Her labor will be tho hes,
paid. her people will have as whole and
as individuals the greatest purchasing
power Then they will buy os much as
they sell of the like commodities which
are consumed 10 common life The CAPT.
tai and labor OF the north will be relieved
OF the runions competition OF cheap labor
from which no tariff can save them--s
more destructive tenfold than
the cheap labor OF the Chinese or OF the
European. while the south herself will be
blessed without injury to us.
THIS is all wrapped up in tempory M
,ional aid TO common schools. There -
no other remedy which can be elective for
80 years

Chas. Dudley Warner has embod-
led the results of his recent visit to
this State in an article in the De-
cember Harper, entitled"Comments
on Kentucky" Mr.. Warmers pa
per treats first of all the Bluegrass
region, of which he seems enthusi-
astically fond. $50 far as l know,
says he, there is nothing like it in
the world" He traces the connec-
ton between the limestone and
bluegrass, between bluegrass and
Presbyterianism." And" he adds,
II am almost prepared to so further
and think that bluegrassis a specific
for physical beauty and a certain
graciousness of life." After few
paragraphs about the colonists set
Elements in Kentucky, and an ac-
count of visit to the Swiss town
in Laurel county, Mr.. Warner de-
votes the greater part of his article
to description of the mountain re-
gion of the East. He is greatly i'm
pressed with the mineral wealth of
this section, and tells of the great
activity display ed by railroads and
capitalists to develop this promis-
ing country. He evidently has a
good deal of faith in the outcome,
and closes his paper with the SEN
tence: Taking it altogether-vari-
ETY. of resources, excellence ofcli-
mate, vigot of its people-one can
not escape the impression that Ken
