The Manufactures, Record in ;ts

last issue, refel1ving to the urgent
need of some instrumentality for
bringing together owners of South.

ployed Northern money, says:
"Hundreds Of good locations are w.
ing neglected by reason Of inability
to reach the car Of capital to present
their merits to the right men; but
fortunately plan has been formula
ted to fill this want which gives prom
ise of the most substantial benefits
to the whole South.
SIT is proposed by Mr.. w. P. Rice,
who has already been tho means of
inducing the investment in the South,
Of millions Of New ENGLAND money,
to establish at Boston q $1,000,000
national bank, to be called the Amer,
lean National Bank, the stock of
which it is proposed to place largely
in the South; in connection with this
bank there is to be bureau Of infor
nation one of whose functions will
be to introduce the banks Southern
stockholders to New England capital
lists.
"Another feature of this new bank
will be the handling Of Southern COM
Imcrcial paper, and to that end close
relations will be established with a
large number of banks from Virginia
to Texas, which on account of lack of
capital arc frequently unable to ac-
comodatc thcir best and most solvent
customers. BY making Il speciality
of handling such paper extensively
this new financial agent of the South
in Boston will be the means of large.
Iy increasing the volume Of available
funds, the narrOwncss of which has
often rendered impossible the mate
rialization of vitality important local
enterprises.
eAIr w. p Rice, the organizer of
this new bank in Boston, has II won
derfnl record as founder Of success
full financial institutions. The Amer
lean National Bank of Kansas City
which he organized, and whose mil
lion and quarter of stock WAS float
ed largely through his personal ell
dcavors, although still Il comparative
y new bank in the month Of May
led the clearinghouse of that metro
polls. With his extraordinary finan-
cial ability, with his immense acquain-
tancc, with capitalists hot only in
New England, but i'll the West, with
the prestige of umvarying success,
this bank, which he is about to
establish III Boston as a connecting
link bctN OIL the resources of the
South ana the unemployed capital
of the North and East, is calculated
to prove a most profitable institution
alike to its stockholders and to the
South at large.
"That Boston is the proper place
for such an institution is proved by
the enormous acceleration heretofore
given to the progress of the West by
Boston men and money. 1t is only
a question of establishing the right
kind of connecting link to bring about
repetition in the South of Bo5ton's
work for the West"

Who to Boycott.

A special from Charleston, S. c..
to the New York Sun says that one
of the wealthicst merchants Of that
city said yesterday that it was not Mt
all likely that Southern merchants
and buyers would take part in boy
cutt against Northern business, but
that q boycott may be enforced
against colorcd supporters of the
force bill in the South. Before TIE
prepared bill can be put into opera,
ton 100 Republlcans. must petition
for its enforcement in district. As
there arc not one hundred white Re,
publicans in the entire State, the ne,
Grocs must be called upon to invoke
the bayonct. The plan that will be
adopted III the South will be to boy,
cott the negroes. 1t will be general
ly understood that no negro who
signs such q petition or accepts an
appointment under the obnoxious law
can obtain work from a. Democrat
thereafter, and this should be ob
served with the utmost strictncss.

Iincoln's Advice.

Abraham Lincoln must, by future gem
Grafton which read the history OF his life,
not yet altogether made, be regarded as
one of the most unique characters in
history. Even to those who by force of
circumstances were most in his company
he was ever developing new side. Grim,
revengeful Stanton, his War secretary,
never quite knew how to take him. STAN
ton was for exterminating such elements
as dared to ask questions. 1t is related
that once some one had refused to I'M
derstand an order, or at all events had
not obeyed. Il believe I'll sit down,
said Stanton, "and give that man piece
of my mind" do So" said Lincoln,
write him now, while you have it on
your mind. Make it sharp; cut him all
up" Stanton did not need second
invitation. 1t was bone crusher that
he read to the President. THAT'S right, "
said Abe; that's good one. who
can get to send it by?" unused the Sec,
rotary. "Send it'll" replied Lincoln ;
"send it. Why, don't send it at all.
Tear it up. You never want to send
such letters never do.

I've True Way to Bring up Boys.

"Yes, sir; ! believe in thrashing a
boy" he was saying in a loud voice to
a Cass avenue car full of passengers. "The
more you thrash boy the better it is
for the boy.
81 think, sir, " remarked meek-look-
ing man sitting next to him, that our
language is very Incorporate.
"What do you object to, may l ask?
Is it the word thrash? You wouldn't
have me say beat would you? Per-
haps fog would suit you better"
Il cannot see the necessity of ilogging
boys, sir.
"What would you do with them, may
l ask 2"
Reason with them. Talk to them in
mild encouraging tones. Remember
that you We're once boy yourself. ="
Il do, sir; and l am thankful every
day of my life for the personal chastise-
ments my good father bestowed on me- :"
Cruel, cruel, 4" murmured the meek
man. at is degrading to hoy to be
whipped like brute beast. No boy re-
quires it. He can always be managed
with kindness.
Every woman in the car looked cur
iously at the meek man, and the advo-
cate of thrashing had temporary chill.
Then he leaped forward and inquired of
the other:
Can you manage your boys without
corporeal punishment?"
II haven't any boys" was the serene
answer, and every body laughed.
1t is SO easy to bring up other peoples
children.
