Extraordinary Advancement Made During thy Past Tear Baltimore, January 1.- The Manufacturers’ Record publishes iu this week’s issue its annual review of the industrial pr gres? of the south (or 1890, showing great activity and prosperity throughout that seotiou. l'he total assessed value of property for 1890 is nearly $4,500,000,000, again of $270,000,000 over 1889, aud of $1,600,000,000 over 1890. The uumbor of nutiounl bauks iu tho south is 950, with an aggregate capital of $90,764,705, ng increase during the year of 104 bauks aud $10,935,01'0 iu capital. Only two southern national bunks failed dur tug the your, and both of these fail nres were due to dishonesty iu man agemeut, according to tho govern meut reports. During the ynur 2,499 miles of railroad were built in tho south, against 2,946 mites in 1889. The total value of foreign exports for all southern purls for tit first eleven months of 1890 wne $268 283,- 000, an increase of $24,141 000 over the corresponding mouths of 1889, while the increase iu the balance of the country was only $4,834,477, the increase in southern ports being five tiineH as great as tut) oombiued gain at all other United States ports. The production of pig iron for the Year foots up about 1 900,000 tons or a gain of 395,000 tons over 1889 or 183,000 tons over 1888, and ut more than 1,000,000 tons over 1887. Tho total production of cotton of fcr the extreme southwest cornet of Louisiana lies the hugest produo mg farm iu the world, mcasutiug 100 miles north aud s >n!h und 25 miles oast and west. It is owned and operated bv a syndicate ol northern capitalists. ’I he 1,500,000 acres of the tract wote putchased in 1883, from the state of Louisiana, and from the United Btatoa govern ment. At that tirno it was a vast grazing laud for the cattle of the few deulen- of tits neighb0)t1$0(kl‘ o. er 30,000 head of half wild horseti and oaltle being thereon, Now this immense tract is divided iuto cant euieut pas ture stations or ranches existing every six miles. Tho fencing alone oost $50,0u0. Tbs land is hret adap ted for rice, sugar, corn and cotton. All cultivating, ditching, etc., is done by steam power. A tract, say half n mile wide, is taken and tin engine is plaoed ou each side. The engines are portable and operate a cable at tached to four plows, and under this arrangement thirty items a day are goue over witu only tho labor three men. Harrowing, planting aud other cultivation is done in like mauuer. Them is not a cingle draught horse on the entire place. Of course horses are used for tin her ers of cattle, of which there are 10,000 head, l'he Southern Pacific railway runs for thirty-six mile6 thiough the farm l'be company have three steamboats operutiug ou the waters of their tatas, of which there are 309 miles navigable They have also an ie»‘ house, a bank, a ship yard and a rice mill, Tilt* Longest Day.

NEW WORLD’S WONDERS. FABLED SEVEN THROWN INTO OB SCURITY IN COMPARISON. San Franoisoo, Jan. I —Over 8<)0 houses were destroyed in the g eat fire ut Yokosuka, J *pm, Nov 3n. Srsrea of (he Creation, of Modern Time. Rtirpas. Any or All of the Wonder* of llic^ Ancient.—Soma ef Amerion’s Be- tnnrkuble Achievement*. Compared with the seven wonders of tho world claetjified by fhe ancionta thore are w-von times seven wonders now. The fabled Colossus of Rhodes, the Alexan drian lighthouse, tho hanging gardens ef Babylon, sink into insignificance beside the ndiieveim iits of modern times. The Colossus of Rhodes was, in all probabil ity, u myth, while tho Bartholdi Htrtuais an accomplished fuct. and undoubtedly equal in point of achievement to any of the seven wondotn of tho ancients, not even excepting the pyramids. As a matter of fuct, the real wonders of tho world, ailieit they have ceased for the most ['art to bo wonders by reason of familiarity, represent inventions rather titan engineering and architect ural skill; the railway, the steamboat, the photograph, tho telescope and- tho self- binding reaper are in themselves won ders of which the Egyptians nnd the Greeks never dreamed. Rut in tho line of engineering skill, which was the most prominent feature of tho original seven wonders, there are so many promt triumphs that it is by no means an easy matter to name tho foremost sovon. nir. MODERN IJHT. The list comprises tho Forth bridge, in Scotland; New York's underground aqueduct, which is thirty miles long, on an average 150 feet underground, and cat through rock; the Eiflel tower; the Brooklyn bridge; tho SL Gothard tun nel, between Switzerland and Italy, be gun nt a height of 1,340 foot, aud cut for nine and one-half miles through tho solid rock; the improvements at Hell Gate, and the jetties nt tho mouth of the Mis sissippi. It is easy to take exceptions to this liBt. There nro probably few intelligent peo ple who will not dispute the claims of some one or other of'theso achievements. The Eiffel tower, for example, lofty as it is, should scarcely bo permitted to crowd out tho Suez canal, und tho engineering feat of removing tho obstructions at Hell Gate is hardly to l>o compared with Iho buihling of tho rucifio railroads. The Siberian railroad ulso is entitled to dispute the claim of some of tlte wonders in tfi'e list, while the Bartholdi statue is scarcely to be crowdod out, not only for its colossal proportions, bat by reason ol the bkill .required to produce the reunite aimed at. There are several cantilever bridges also, some one of which, is likely to trugp>srt itself to engineers ns having good grounds for disputing tho place in the list of ueven. To many unfamiliar with the problem to bo solved it may seem as if tho jettiox of tho Mississippi were Irardly entitled to a place in tho list. There aro no mighty buttresses of sfono, no marvel ous structures by human hands to arrest attention—ouly lines of willow basket work, filled with mud and gravel aud sunk in the river chunnel. But wo see what has been accomplished by such simple means suggested by the gc-ukts of Capt. Eads. SIMPLE nl'T WONDERFUL, Hero is tho problem: A river necessary to the inland commereo of a continent, whoso waters continually bear vast quantities of sand und gravel toward the sea. A cubic mile of solid earth, it has been estimated, is thus borne down by tbo Mississippi every year. When the stream met the waters of the gulf the current was checked by the inflowing tides, and a great burden of earthy mat ter was dnposited, wltilo tho riveT spread out over a great extent of territory. Navigation wus rendered uncertain and dangerous, and millions of dollars ex pended in dredging brought no practical results. Tho river could beat tho United States government in a contest waged ott that lino. Then canto Capt. Eads with a propo sition to gather tho willows along the shores, muko them into crates or mat- tresses, fill them with mud and gravel, placo them iu parallel lines whero a channel was wanted, and set tho river to do its own digging by means of a quick ened current. That was tho basis of the jetty system, which has more than doubled tho depth of tho channel at the month of tho most important river on tho globe. The \t aters continued to deposit sand gravel between tho jetties and the shores, tho willows sprouted aud grew, and thus 6olid banks of earth were formed and protected by trees. It is only necessary to extend tho line of wil low baskets from time to time as occa sion domunds in order to can y tho chan nel still further iuto the gulf. Tho jetty system is a grand triumph of simplicity, but fairly entitled by reason of tho re sults obtained to be reckoned among the leading soven wonders of tho world.— Frank Leslie's Monthly. Terrapin Farming. A terrapin form is described by The Feruandina (Fla.) Nows. It is an in- closnro about twenty feet square, one- half of it filled with loose sand and a tank occupying the rest of tho space. The tank is below tide level, nnd nt high tide the salt water runs in from tin- marsh to u depth of four feet. The tauk was all perforated with holes, aud the owner, digging down with his fingers, unearthed some baby terrapins an inch or two long.

Yet he always kept a good hotel. Ou “show” nights he cleaned out tho dress ing rooms and acted ns janitor in gen eral. From the second story of this hotel there was a hallway leading to tho stage. The actors wore usually assigned to the fooyts along (his hull, and would occa sionally use their rooms as dressing rooms at night, a proceeding to whi«fh tbo old man seriously objected. Tho okl man would wntch the doors like a cat, and os soon us a room was vacated he would let himself in with a pass key, nnd if the gas was left burning he would turn it out. Hi* would also gather every stick ef wood from the rooms and redeposit them in the big box nt tho top of tho office stirirs. niF.

Tho dress 'van a combination of flaming red, black aud green, light fitting, with big hot wings. Tho feet wore long nnd pointed, with cloven hoofs; there was a closo filling skull cap with two protruding horns, made this face a flaming red, with large pieces of green foil paper under tho eyes, There were a large skull and cross bones on my breast, with red foil paper set in tho eye sockets. The long scarlet tail was forked at the end and illuminat ed with foil papers. As I completed this satnnio toilet 1 could hour the orchestra playing tho ballet music of tho grotto scene,-so I knew that 1 should not be wanted for nt least twenty minutes, dropped two or throe pieces of pino wood ou the open grate fire, an.l drawing big chair to one side of tho grato seated myself comfortably for a short snooea, placing my feet >n another chair directly in front of the grate, and hitching Za- miel’s forked tail gracefully over my right shoulder. 1 was just dropping off when tho door was opened softly, anil by a reflection in tlio mirror I could reo tho old landlord sneak into tho room. His eagle eye missed mo, half hidden in the big chair, but lit on tho singlo gas jet burning at full head. He turned it off quickly and moved toward tho well filled wood box; ho filled his arms full, leaving two or three smull pieces as a blind, and turned. This movement brought him faco to face with the apparition in the big chair. Tho darkened room illuminated by the glare from the bnrning pino added a weird effect to tho scene. Tho wood fell from the nerveless arms, and his lower jaw dropped to tho point of dislocation. I remained motionless, staring at him through my green foil eyes. TI1E 1USKK BCAJtKD. Tho old miser seemed to have grown to the floor; lie must have stood for thirty seconds without breathing. Final ly his breath came with n gasp and a gurgle. With one hand I gently ehook that forked tail, the end of which was standing on a level with my head. Raising iny arm slowly I leveled at him the long red foil tinned finger. With a gasp lie rushed for the door. As he rt ached it I stood erect, my back to the fire, scratching my ear with tho tip of my tail. Tho old man gavo one glance over his shoulder, and, with an un earthly scream, fell against tlie door, und seemed trying to push it through; 'rat the door opened in. 1 took ou j step toward him, and he gave unother screech end tried to jump through the transom. At that moment Tom Davey, my roommate, pushed the door open and the ild man foil across tho threshold. Ho gathered liimr-clf quickly and flew wildly into the hail. I explained the situation briefly to Davoy. Opening tho door lie lookt.l down to where the main hallway intercepted llu main hall. In a fit of wild extravagance tho miser had turned the gas full ou and stood Blaring in tho direction of our door. The old man motioned to Tom and asked whether lie had seen anybody in the room. Tom assured him that -there way no ono in the worn. “What! Nothing at all?” “Noth ing at all,” answered Tom. The old man stared at him vacantly for it moment and then sneaked down to the office, keeping ono eye over his shoulder. It is said trliat for a year or two after ward ho never entered an actor’s room to turn down the gas or rob the woodbox; but gradually the force of habit becomo stronger than the terrors of memory. A few years ago he died miserably, leaving millions for others to squander.—Atlanta Constitution. Tho Importance of | not be oTorcitimated, for without | you cannot enjoy good health.
