Auburn, Ala., July 2.—The commence
ment exercises or the Alabama Polylech
ulc institute, just closed, were interesting
uud, in imrt, novel. A great many stran
gore were liere. Rev. M. M. Wamhold!
delivered a brilliant address bcf >re the lit
erary societies, Rev. Dr. Dodd preached i.
fine sermon, and Hon. Thomas H. Watt;
made the commencement address, which
was an able argument against t'edera
ant to schools. There were ex
•ereises in the mechanic art labora
tury that attracted a great deal of alten
tion. In this department a number o.
young men have received accurate train
ing in carpentry, cabinet making, the man
agement of engines and machinery, sharp
ening, cleaning and handling tools, etc
They were actually at work one afternoon
during commencement, and many visitors
viewed them with curious interest. Speei
mens of their work were on exhibition,too.
and most of them were very pretty. The
whole thing was a revelation tc
strangers. It was indeed wonderful that
they should have heard the same boy make
a tine original oration and do good work
with saw, plane, lathe and chisel. Such
is the new education which is to play so
important a part in the building up the
material interests of the south. It dem
onstrates what most southern people have
regarded as impossible; namely, that a
youth’s mind and hand may both be thor-
"bughly trained.
We had an artillery drill one afternoon,
and the cannon, manipulated by cadets,
awoke echoes in the distant hills. We had
a skirmish drill in which blank cartridges
were used, and old soldiers were reminded
of war times, particularly when the skirm
ish line fell back in hot haste before the
advance of a numerous imaginary foe.
The military department of the institu
tion is under the cnarge of a United States
officer, Lieut. M. C. Richards of the second
artillery—a man thoroughly competent to
teach the arts of war.
The board of trustees made such pro
vision that hereafter two graduates each
year may pursue a post-graduate course
without expense to themselves, by doing
the work of tutors in the preparatory de
partment. They consolidated the chairs
of Latin and English, and put the whole
in charge of the accomplished Prof. C. C.
Thnch. They elected W. D. Taylor, a
brilliant young man, adjunct professor.
Mr. S. C. Pitts, of Oswichee, Russell coun
ty, who was one of this year’s graduates,
was made assistant in the mechanical de
partment. Mr. Pitts is fully competent for
the place, and in every way worthy of con-
fi deuce.
Last night the State Alumni Association
of the A. T. O. fraternity gave a sumptu
ous banquet to u very large number of
guests. Fine addresses were delivered by
Sir. Howard Lamar, Mr. J. C. Carmichael
and Hon. W. J. Samford in the order
named. The table was beautifully ar
ranged and laden with the choicest fruits
and delicacies of all sorts. Ices were
served in abundance, and everybody en
joyed both the intellectual and physical
treat.
Miss Primrose attended most of the ex
ercises, and the longer a speech was
the better she enjoyed it, but
she objected to the applause
which followed each performance because
it interrupted her slumbers.
Auburn is in a condition of healthy and
• substantial improvement. New houses
are building, old ones repaired, and the
population is constantly increasing, both
by the natural method and by the influx of
new families. The district school is well
organized with a good faculty, and had
last year 145 students in attendance.
Farmers are rather blue. Grass is
•abundant, and crops have suffered from an
excess of rain. Primrose.

M. John mi tin- South.
Pittsburgh Commercial-Gazette.
Mr. St. John told of his trip through the
south, where he was sent by a New York
temperance bureau to “correct the
heathen.” He said that he found that he
was in a wrong place to work among |
heatnen. Over one-third of Kentucky is
under prohibition ; Tennessee is ahead of
Massachusetts: in Mississippi not a church
closed its doors for him or a preacher hesi
tated to speak lest he offend some one and j
lose his bread and butter. Mississippi has, |
in proportion to population, one saloon
where New York C’.ty, “good, moral, holy i
New York,” lias ten. One-naif of Ala
bama is under prohibition; Georgia h;us 1
130 out of 134 counties under prohibition, j
and it was so everywhere until lie discov
ered that the south has one saloon where
the north lias three.
It was while talking of the south that I
Ht. John told his best story. “I reached
Corinth, Miss.,” lie said, “early one morn- 1
ing. Another passenger alighted with j
me. He was a great big, moon-faced man,
jolly and full of life. We went to a hotel
and stood for a few minutes about the '
stove, for it was a cold, rainy morning. I
Haul my big friend: ‘I guess I’ll' take a hot 1
toddy; will you join me?’ I told him no,
that I preferred a hot stove to a barrel of !
hot toddies. He laughed and said to the
landlord. ‘Landlord, make me a hot toddy;
make it big and stiff, and strong, and hot,
and wide, and deep; such a hot toddy,
landlord, as a man oi physical proportions
could enjoy before breakfast.’
“The landlord smiled and said: ‘We have
no toddies here.’ My bi ; fellow-passenger
cried,‘Is this a temperance hotel?’ ‘It is.’

tlie North.
lugustn Chronicle.!
A special report of the commercial,
financial, industrial, educational and trails
portation situation of the south will soon
oe published by the government. Thest
itatistics will be comparative between 18KC
and 1886. One fact may not appear, viz.:
that the old south, so-called, was owned
by her people, while the new south, so
called, is largely controlled by northern
money and legislation.
The chief ol the bureau of statistics is re
ported as intimating that the work of his
assistants bus progressed far enough to
demonstrate that the development of the
■south has been much more rapid and sub
stantial than is generally supposed, and in
recent years has fully kept pace with that
of other portions of the country. Also,
that its agricultural and mineral resources
have been greatly underrated, and that its
newly-opened fields of enterprise and com
mercial activity now present prospects as
bright ns any other portion of the
union. It is also claimed that the south
ern states enjoy a great advantage over
those further north in the matter of strong;-
capable and contended laborers. Ap
parently the south is awakening to a re
cognition of the fact that its methods of
activity have not been sufficiently diversi
fied to permit the greatest success. It is
discovered that too much dependence has
been plneed on the cotton crop at the same
time that it is found possible to obtain a
valuable material from a part of the plant
that was till recently neglected—namely:
the seed. In no other respect is tile
change of sentiment so strongly marked
as in regard to the relations between labor
and capital.
These are conceded facts. How long
this section will enjoy a more contented
laboring class than the north remains to
be seen. The north is getting its work on
us. When the south had negro slavery,
the north never rested until it made that
labor free. Now that the freedmen are
cheaper than the white laboring classes of
the north, that section is creating discon
tent which may grow to proportions where
our advantage will cease. The south will
never, under existing circumstances, have
any advantage that the north will not at
tempt to discount. Unfortunately, we
have some men here who play into the
hands of the north, consciously or uncon
sciously.
The statistical report will bring out
prominently the fact that the south has
been “the paradise of usurers.” The plant
ers eat their cake before they earn it, so to
speak. “They are furnished, not by the
banks, but by the ‘merchants,’at about ?5
per cent, more than they would be willing
to accept for cash, and tne debt is secured
by a mortgage on the crop. When the
crop matures the farmer is obliged to sell,
often at forced sale, to meet his liabilities,
and the merchant aforesaid is not seldom
the purchaser at a heavy discount from the
price that could have been obtained in
open market. At least one-fourth of the
crop is thus sacrificed to meet interest on
this kind of indebtedness.”
The question has been discussed so fully
in the Chronicle and other southern pa
pers that nothing new can be said on the
subject.
The grand results of the statistical report
1 are that the south are naturally rich, but
undeveloped and comparatively thriftless.
There is growth, but how much is healthy
| cannot be altogether determined. When
I we consider what a burden of federal,state
I and municipal taxation our people stagger
1 under, the wonder is that we do as well
as figures make out. When Mr.
Dunnell, of the New York Times, j
visited this section and beheld j
the sparseness of population and the waste |
of war, he marveled that we could pay our
home taxes, much less those of the federal
government. There are not a few philoso- 1
phers and statesmen who consider that ,
the cause of the south’s being “a paradise I
of usurers” is not only the ownership of so
many properties liere by strangers, but
the financial policy of New York, repre
sented by John Sherman and Grover Cleve- j
land, whereby the currency is contracted,
silver dishonored, a false standard partial
ly insisted upon and the treasury glutted
with money to enrich the bondholder and
pauperize the masses.

Georgia Politics.
The Griffin Daily Sun is of the opinion
that when this gubernatorial war is over,
there will be many citizens of Georgia who
will be heartily ashamed of the intemper- !
ate zeal which they have displayed in the
interests of men who do not care anything
about them.
Citizens of Perry have recently been 1
asked for expressions concerning the effect
of prohibition upon the town and the
county, and in every instance the answer
has been an indorsement of prohibition. j
These expressions of opinion have been
miked for by citizens of counties where
prohibition campaigns are pending, or in
contemplation.
The Perry Home Journal says: The Gor- ;
don meeting at the court house in Perry-
last Saturday was attended by seventy-
seven men from all sections of the county
—all representative men.
Delegates to the congressional and sena
torial conventions will lie selected by muss
meeting at the court house in Perry on the
10th inst.
The Perry Home Journal says : General
John B. Gordon will address the people of
Houston county at Perry on Saturday, the
10th inst. Arrangements are being made
by his friends to give him a royal welcome.
\Ve are informed that he will be met at the
depot by a special committee, and the car
riage in which he is to ride will lie drawn
