fbe west, can be deflected from

nines, the towns and the cities ot the

The south, (or a number ot obvious
.senses. was not able to offer induce
tiesis to immigrants before the war
u>J a few years subsequent to it, and
a fact suffered by ihe emigration of
auy Jliou-ands bf it white popula

and splendid era foreordained for the

fullness of its dawn.
All this form* the basis for the adieu
of the immigration convention, and
Is the motive of its being and futare
operations. There are already twen
ty-five or thirty flourishing colonies
in (lip south, the one in Alabama be
ing the most nourishing of all, the
chief town, Cullman, containing 2,-
500 inhabitants, mostly Germans. To

Did he indeed? Young mail listen:—
Wo have lived a considerable while
and during life have heard of the Bible
bsing overturned,refuted and demol-
ised many times. Every few years
somebody starts up and overturns the
Bible, and it ie like overturning a
huge rock that has been ehai>ed into
a perfect cube, turn it as you will, it is
always “right side up with care.”
Then when we read history be
ginning away back at the time of

ry ef Bible orerturners down to the
present, we find the work of ever
one of them has eome to naught;
and Judging the future by a knowl
edge of the past, the works of such
men will always come to naught.
There are more Bibles iu the world
today, read and believed in by more
people, than ever before or since the
world was, aad the number increas
ing more rapidly.
It might not be amiss for objec
tors to boa little less open-mouthed
and less positive in their assevera
tion about the Bible; if no other
reason, than that of eouccaling their
own ignorance.

I THE PBI NOB OW WALES AND
IRELAND
if In some quarters it i* considered'
doubtful whether the Prince ot Wale*
will visit Ireland in accordance with
the announced programme. Thedate
fixed upon is tome time daring the
first perl ef April. The places to be
rlsfted have not yet been fixed upon,
and, doubtless, seine difficulty will be
experienced in deciding npon them.
At this season of the year there are
comparatively few of the great land
lord! of Ireland at theirconntry seals.
These who stay her* throughout the
year do not belong to the weathiest
class. No on* of them probably is
able to bear the expense of entertain
ing the Prince and those who will ac
company him.
There is no indication that the
Prince’s visit will be the occasion of
any exhibition of enthusiasm or loyal
ty en the part of th* people. Indeed,
the outlook now is that he will Ue re
ceived in most parts of the country
in snllen silence. The Natieimtlsts
under the ins) met ion of their leader,
Mr. Pernell, have indicated pretty
clearly the kind of a reception that
the Prince may reasonably expect.
Of course, the English officials and
the soldiery will do what they can to
entertain him, and they mty succeed
in giving a little brightness to his
tour. Th* eituetion, however, will
be very much like thst which was
some limes witnessed during the
days of carpei-bsg role in the South,
whno distinguished NoAhern Re
publican officials visited Southern
citie*. The visiting Republican
statesmen were Ist alene, and it is
about certain that the Prince of Wales
will be let alone when he visits Ire
land.
The Irish people- are not lacking in
hospitality, and they have nopartlcu
lar grievance against the Prince. If it
were not that were engaged fh s great
struggle for what they know to be
their right* they would take great da-
Ught doubtless in giving him * royal
welcome. The Nationalist leaders,
however see that if the Prince as their
guest they might beled, by their ad
miration for his courage in visiting
them nnder the circumstances, and
by hit agreeable and popnhtr man
ner*, to abate something of their de
mands. What Inland is fighting for
I# Home rule, such as England ac
cords to her colonies and in order
to wiathe battle it is necrssMb to
maintain a firm and uncompromis
ing attitude.
The purpose of the visit to Ireland
is of course to weaken the opposition
to English rule. It does not look
now as if that purpose would be ac
complished.—Savannah News.
OOOD ADVICE TO (MOVER
Hen. Georg* T. Barnes, our newly
elected and popular Congressman,
hat just returned from Washington
City, and bl* friend* have never seen
him happier or In finer spirits. He Is
flush from social oonfbreuee with
President Cleveland, and w ill* hit
wus devoid of politic*! significance
beyond a prospective glance Et th*
situation and the establishment of
pleasant relatione with the Adminis
tration, th* result of hi* trip seems to
have been eminently successful and
satisfactory in every Muse. It is
hinted on authority, tact, in that the
only advee which onr Congressman
gave to his friend Grover wss to get
married.
Th* geod advice it said to have tick
led the Preiident.immensely and those
present at the time have reason to be
lieve thal it went lo th* right apot of

All the reperters were rufnsed a word

Vassy. lie took a stenographer with
him, marched boldly into the hotel
office aud seating himself boldly de
manded imperiously of theconcierge:
"What is your name?” The man
was taken back, and gave his name
at once. “Taka it dowr, Mr. Sheriff,”
said Vassy; and then to the concierge
again : "Now, sir, tell us directly all
you know about this affair.” The
fellow thought Vassy was the Police
Commissioner aud told him a long
story, rich in scandalous details,
which filled two columns of Vassy’s
paper and gave it a stupendous “beat”
