IN his recent speech in Cincinnati
Chauncey Depew cast ridicule upon tn,
people Of Williamsburg for being more
interested. as he thought, in the age OF
Dinwiddie and Gooch than in more re-
cent times. a somewhat similar charge
has been brought against the culture OF
the generations of Nirginians who lived
before the late war. it being said that
they were far more familiar with the
early English classic authors than with
those remarkable writers whose fame
adorned the contemporary age.
We do not consider this to be at all to
their discredit. Familiarity with the
best models has more fructifying ef-
feet on the mind than an indiscrimi-
nate knowledge of literature at large.
For that reason. we are inclined to
think that the culture of our people IN
der the slavery regime was Of the high
est degree of its special kind.
The truth is that the planting class
ives in tastes and feeling, as well as in
the general character of their lives, a
counterpart of the rural gentry OF Eng.
land. They had the same social ideas.
tue same pride of birth and position.
they drew their mental nourishment
from the same great literary fountains
as the English landed gentry. We
venture to say that among this class in
England there could not be found more
thorough culture or more critical
acumen refined by thought and study
than among the old Virginiaps.
Why. then, did they not give birth to
many men of literary dIstinctiony Be- |
lore we answer that question we should
ike to ask. Did the landed gentry at
treat Britain between the years l7OC |

WHILE men who are simply cultivated
have their mehtal idiosyncracies JUS:
the same as men Of the most remarka
bic genius, yet these idiosyncracics
are not so apt TO warp their judgment.
They have not the creative or inventive
faculty. otherwise they would not have
remained obscure, but they have the
anal teal faculty developed TO a suffi
Gent degree by education to give them
a high degree of critical competency.
From every circle Of cultivated men
we believe there could be selected with
much more ease than from the same
proportion OF remarkable writer's. a
certain number who would be distin
guished for such catholicity and liDer-
atty OF taste a. to give their verdict the
very highest value. Such a literary iury
would deliver verdict that would be-
apt 10 find It's echo III the unanimous
voice Of distant generations.
The critical opinion Of the great mass
OF readers is comparatively worthless,
because such readers are generally un-
der the influence of some passing fash
ION in sentiment which is just as con-
mon and notable as transient modes Of
dress. The general culture Of such
readers, also. is so imperfect that they
suffer from literary color blindness. liz
every highly civilized community there
Is small body of men and women who.
though bound by the rules of no organ
lzation, and donating no wreaths of
laurel, yet contribute an academy Of
local lmmortals whose judgment is the
judgment which the great court OF pos
Ierity will deliver.

As A BULLDOzER.-It Is simply some
OF Mahones bulldoziDg trickery to de-
ter Democratic judges of election from
DONG what they may conceive to be
their duty IN the coming election next
tuesday. In Petersburg he is trying to
intlmidate the registrars by having
some of them cited before the court for
refusing TO register certain parties who
made application to register, while in
Richmond he is endeavoring through
the courts, to have names replaced ON
the lists which under the law were
stricken from them.-The Wilmington

NEGROES Welded TO MALONE
There ism Z shadow OF doubt that
Mahone will receive the negro vote
almost solidly, no matter what NAV be

this contest. In some places there been

but they do not amount to much. Most

THE VOTING OF COLoRED GHOSTS
There may have been abuses in the pro-
cess IN Virginia, but Senator Blair in
sists That ali the names should be put
back again, and he says in his blundei-
ing frankness: III this thing continues

words, Congress viii pass bill TO pro-

Southern Cotton Mills.

WONDERFUL GROWTH OF THE INDUSTRY.
BALTIMORE, Aug. THE number of
cotton mills now in the South, as com.
pared with 1880, has been doubled, while
the number of spindles and looms has
more than trebled, the tendency being to
build mills of greater capacity than form
erly. From 161 mills, having 667, 1854
spindles and IA 1888 looms in 1880, this
industry has increased until there are now
355 mills, with 2,0S5, 26S spindles and 49,
001 looms. Moreover there are many mills
under construction and projected, and a
number of old mills are increasing their
capacity.
Letters to the Manutacturers' Record
from leading manufacturers in the South
as to the outlook for the cotton industry
indicate that the production of coarse cot
ton goods in the South is temporarily IN
excess of the demand, and that the South
must diversity its cotton manufactures,
make the finer grades and also seek for
eign market by means of a direct steam
ship line to South America.
