With Many Heads.

General Malone seems to belong TO
that class of men who cannot escape
publicity no matter how much they
seclude themselves. Rumor is forever
busy with his name and affairs, max
ing up in invention what it lacks in
information. The generals impene-
trable recticence is exceedingly aggra-
waiting to the busy-bodies, involving
them in multiplicity of conflicting
statements which are as absurd as
they are invariably false. First came
the report that General Malone was
to be made United States Senator
from Florida, contrary to the Consti-
tuition, then he was going to Califor-
mia, then that he was to develop
some silver mines and become silver
king, then that he was to run for
Congress from this district, then that
be was to be consul general to Paris,
then that he was buying the Norfolk
and Western Railroad, and finally
that he has been engaged by the
German government to command
certain troops in Africa. Verify,
Gen. Malone must needs be a Bria-
reus with as many heads and,hands to
fulfill all employments assigned him
by idle and ignorant gossips OF the
day.-Index-Appeal.

n reporter of one Of the metropolitan

ring to the Southern people whom he
had met he remarked:
Il am very much pleased with the
South, especially with the hospitality
of its inhabitants. There are two
classes of people as far as have been
able to observe, in the South. One
class, which is growing smaller, have
their heads filled with classics, ideas
of aristocracy, &c. The other class
busy their minds about phosphates,
iron mines, cotton mills and other
enterprises 1t is needless to say that
the latter class are the better citizens,
and are the most important factors in
the construction OF the new South. F"
