of any other country. More than
90 per cent of the worlds cotton
IS raised i'll the South. But this
cotton crop is now exceeded III
value by its grain crops. which
aggregate about $4,000, 900
bushels a year, a fact which
comparatively few seem to know
More than Ione-half of all the
standing timber in the United
States is in the South. Iron
ore and coal are in unlimited
supply, and owing to their prox-
INIT and to the low cost of mini
ing, pig iron is now made at a
smaller cost than in any other
part of the world. Pittsburg and
Chicago are now using Alabama
iron for busic steel making, and
soon large steel plants will be
built in the South. Nearly every
Southern State has an abundance
of the best water power to sup
plement the advantages of cheap
coal 1t is not an eXageration to
say that this favored land has
greater advantages and resources,
such as mineral, timber and ag-
ricultural wealth, than all other
sections; it also has greater adj
vantages for the profitable utlll-
xation of these natural resources
than any other country Ill the
world; by virtue of its rivers and
long sea coast it has the guaran-
tee of the lowest freight rates,
regardless of railroad com bina-
tions; it has a climate that is con
ducivc to good health and long
life-a climate that reduces the
cost of living to a minimum; it
has all of these mighty factors to
insure its prosperity, and with
fewer disadvantages than any
other equal area III America or
Europe. 1t can produce every
thing, from the widest range of
agricultural growth to the widest
limit of manufacturing and min
ing diversity, at lower cost than
other sections. 1t is becoming
the market garden Of the North.
In the aggregate the shipment
Of early fruits and vegetables

to S5O,oOo,oOo a year;
this business is increasing very
rapidly. Ten years ago it was
of trifling importance.
Some countries have iron and
coal, some have timber, some
have good agricultural lands.
some have a good climate, some
have water power, some other
advantages, but no other except
the South combines all of these,
and to them adds cotton, which.
in all its ramifcations, is the
foundation of what is probably
the greatest manufacturing in
terest in the world.

"hIol OI QudlltleS, that
"happy medium which was best
calculated to make you happy.
Never fear to let her be sensible
OF this. Never let the fear of
Jokes or smiles prevent your
showing, III the presence of 9TH
ers, that your wife is more to
you than all others. A foolish
tondness, an affected politeness,
IS indeed almost disgusting as
we sometimes see it displayed by
married people. And it is often
to my mind au indication Of
want rather than all overplus Of
affection. But there is a polite
ness that springs from the heart;
there are attentions which a true
interest and affection prompt,
and these should never be neg>
lected Oh, tell it not in Christ
endom that your affections are
not inviolable. Common con-
sent and the providence Of God
has made the husband superior
to the wife. But it is not neces-
sary to assert this superiority. fl
done, it tends to lessen the afec-
ton of both. If your wife has
the proper views and feelings
she will show sufficient defer>
ence to your opinion without
being reminded of it. 1t is the
distinguished mark of civilized
society, it is a peculiar excell~
encc Of Christianity, that women
is made the companion, not the
slave and dependent Of man.
The time is gone by when
women were thought to have 10
souls. In physical strength and
active labor they must yield, but
they may, and often do, possess
as much hrmness of mind and |
