WHAT SHE TOLD THEM.

Recently Kansas woman, Miss Mar garet M. Mather, delivered lecture to some of her sisters. which seems to have surprised them, to say the least of it. Among other things. she told them that character. ability and intel lectuality no longer weigh much in the social scale. When one mother asks another if her daughter married well, the usual answer Is affirmative or negative, according to the size of the check the bridegroom can sign.
 The Chicago Journal thus sums up the points of her lecture:
 1. The eompiexity of modern life has reduced the joy of living to mini for gold; their ideals are tainted with It. Remedy. Insist upon genuine ideals. Let woman's measure be taken in worth womanlinesse and culture in stead of fine clothes, luxuries and jew els.
 g EmbezzlemeHts and defalcations are growing alarmingly numerous. ing beyond their incomes. Few women know what their incomes are. Few know how much their husbands can Let women be taught the value of a dollar. Let them learn to do house. keeping as a business instead of trust ing the management to incompetent servants.
 3. Young women are refusing to marry men with modest incomes. The young woman of the present expects her husband to begin financially where her father left of Cause: Girls are permitted to be eXtravagant and waste ful They can not appreciate the value of hard earned money. Remedy: Let parents teach their children the prin- ciples Of work and economy and the management of money at home. Chill dren should be given work to do in the home and should be paid for 1t.
 We have no disposition to butt into this controversy; The women are the ones who are primarily concerned and interested, and if they care to argue the matter with their Kansas sister, it's up to them, and we should not be surprised If some of them make 1t warm for her.

 The market reports of a weekly pa- per are useless to the farmer--they are two old by the time they reach him. The quantity of cotton has no charms for the farmer because the world needs more than he at this time can raise. An organ" for one State Is farcfcal. The association has "set down" on the proposition for an organ" for all the States. t.

OLD STEAMBOAT DAYS.
When Floating Palaces Flowed the

Clarke County Democrat.
 The present generation has little con- ceptfon of the business that was done on our rivers fifty or sixty years ago the period antedating $he introduction of railroad transportation in Alabama and Mississippi. Dusing the winter season when navigation was favorable and crops ready for movement, twenty five or more steSmboats would De en-. gagged on each river. Many of these boats were fine, costly and large with of cottcn In March, 1851, the James Hewitt carried to Mobile 3,100 bales or cotton-the largest cargo ever taken by steamboat to that city or,,, all went to the head Of navigation Wetumr ka, and drew their cafgoes to and from points far west, north ana east of that place Montgomery ana ana Selma were large shipping points, the cotton all going to Mobile. The re- ceipts at that. place one season were from the Tcmbikby. the Little Bikby and the Warrior Rivers were also very large Demopolis, Aberdeen, Columb bus, Gainesille, Warsaw Vienna, were all large shipping points.

 But those days hae passed, never to return. The railroads have diverted shipping and shipping points, Mobile not getting more than half the cotton she received in the Dalmy days of which we write. The cotton goes to other points by railroad and goes, much of it, before our failing rivers would allyow shipment by boat.
 Mobile, we are glad to add, is doing much better than when she received so much cotton.

NIT. Conner and the Libel Law.

Talladega Reporter.
 In MT, Corners announcement speech in this city on Saturday last. one thing cropped out that the press of the State will doubtless regret-at least regret
 In reference to his recent suits against certain newspapers. which were dismissed on demurrers, he said;
 He had brought the suits not for tation of citizens. of Alabama The suits. he said, had been dismissed not because the charges made by the de plaintiff had failed to give the defend- ants five days notice In which to re- tract. a,..ra.o ;. ,bo e., monwealth. Under 1t any newspaper can ruin the reputation of any man or woman in the. State and do so with ab- solute impunity.
 Alabama has been congratulated on the fairness and justice of its statute on libel, which is the result of years of work and consideration, and it is peculiarly unfortunate that one of our candidates for Governor should make 1t an issue in his race. and we do trust he will reconsider his opposition to of the State, in the spirit of all that is
 Without any reference to the merits or fate of the particular suits of Mir Conner. we can not see how the statute could be classed as unfair, and surely not as disgrace to the Common wealth.
 As rule newspapers wish to. and do publish the truth, and the facts just as the public wishes to know them. It Is very rarely that such issues are de- nied, and when they are with good grounds to show the error of any pub lie print. there Is no self-respecting editor but that is willing 10 hasten to devote ten lines toward correcting the misstatement Of a single line.
 The Alabama statute removes none of the common law rights of one ma AVA ell ft1fn m Iii of the penalties for such violations. It simply provides that before rushing to law on an imagined wrong or false statement, he shall first give the of lending paper five days notice In which to correct, apologize and make right any error it may have unintentionally fallen into. What could be fairer? Is it any fault of the statute that such notice is not given? Should the many papers of the State be denied Its priv ileges, even If one or two took adyan- lage of It's proNisiOns2
