It is an encouraging feature of the
progress of the South that its cotton
manufacturing interests are steadily
increasing. In 1875 and 1S76 only
145,000 bales were manufactured in
Southern cottou mills, while during
the past year 205,000 bales were manu
factured—again of 60,000, or over forty
per cent. From the capital that is be
ing invested in cottou mills now
throughout, the South, a much larger
increase may be expected during the
next five years. The international cot
ton exposition at Atlanta will do much
toward awakening an intersest in the
manufacture of this staple where it is
grown, and we may look to see within
a short timo cotton mills dotted over
the entire South.—Northern paper.

The II«;nc of a, Southern l*oct.
In a small vine-clad cottage in Co
lumbia county, just sixteen miles north
west of Augusta, lives Paul H. Hayne,
the poet. On the summit of a sloping
hill stands the snow-wite villa,-dazzling
beneath the green foliage of oaks and
cedars. Here and there small shrub
bery dots a neatly terraced yard fring
ed with white stones. There make up
the exterior of the poet’s home.
It was ten o’clock when I drove up
in front of Mr. Hayue’s house, and was
invited by a servant to a seat in the
sitting-room. This room is peculiarly
striking. The walls are pasted from
floor to ceiling with pictures of all de
scriptions taken from the periodicals.
On the left of the first door is a large
steel engraving of General Wade Hamp
ton, who presented it to the poet on
the dedication of a piece of poetry to
him. ^Above the mantel are Dickens,
Lord Byron. Harriet Martineau, and
other distinguished persons. Here aud
there stands an elegant piece of furni
ture, a remainder of the former wealth
of the artistocratic Hayne family. In
an adjoining room is an extensive li-
bratj of hundreds of the choicest
volumes in the English language. Near
the shelves of this treasured storehouse
is a bed, which bespeaks of Mr. Hayne
in his later years.
Mr. Hayne is a man of polished man
ners and friendly address, about five
feet six inches tall, of a round, sym
metrical figure, olive complexion, dark,
penetrating brown eyes, beaming with
intelligence, beneath an average project
ing forehead ; he is a natural orator in
esnversation, so much so that one can
not but be reminded of the fact he is a
nephew of Robert Hayne, Mr. Web
ster’s formidable opponent.—Atlanta
Constitution.
The Leanlae Tower of Pisa.
The Rev. W. P. Harrison, the chap
lain of the national house of representa-
atives has been traveling in Europe and
writing to the Atlanta Constitution,
he thus describes the town of Pisa ;
Leaving Rome at 2:40 in the after
noon, a journey of 8 hours brought me
to Pisa. There are only four objects
of interest here, and these I visited this
morning. The cathedral, a fine build*
ing of Byiantine style, and the baptist
ery, huilt in the 12th century, stand
near together, while the camposanto.
or cemetery, is only a little way beyond.
Fifty-three shiploads of earth were
brought from Mount Calvary for the
burial ground. Many works of art
adorn its spacious colonades. The cele
brated leaning tower is the church
tower of the cathedral, and whilst I was
upon it. at nine in the morning, the
mofniDg, the old sacristan informed me
that be was about to ring the bell, and
as many nervous were frightened at the
first few strokes, he kindly gave me
warning. Back and forth he swung
the great old bell with a halter on the
tongue, until be had it well in motion,
then slipping the rope off the clapper
he rung away until the peals came back
again from the neighboring heights.
Everyone is familiar with the descrip
tion of the leaning tower. Whether by
accident or design, no one can tell, but
the inclination of the structure makes
it look and feel to the visitor as if it
were about to fall. It is 180 feet high
and is 13 feet out of the perpendicular.
This is stated everywhere, and is no
doubt true, but I suppose there are
many persons who, like myself, expect
ed to see a building standing erect the j
centre of whose top was outside the'*
centre of gravity. This is not the case
by any means. It is true that a rope
falling from the top would strike the
wall at the bottom of the tower side,
but the rope would not fall outside of
the tower wall. In a short time I
satisfied myself and two other visitors
of this fact. Tiio apparent contradict
ion of the laws of nature disappears,
then in a moment. Taking the building
as a whole—letting a line fall from the
centre at the top—if this line fell out-
ido of the base, in that case the build
ing would violate tho law of gravity if
t remained standing.
I believe that the architect planned
this optical illusion. There are no
signs or any giving way in the struct
ure. No crack or crevice gives evi
dence of rapid or slow settling of the
walls. The architect knew very well
how easily the eye can be deceived.
The firmness of the masonry, the gradual
aseent, the symmetry of the whole,
prove, beyond a doubt, tbat it was built
as it now stands. The walls below arc
very thick, and unless these should
give way, there is but one other meth
od by which the building could be
overthrown. If the stones were to slip
from their places, then, little by little
it would be dislodged. But the whole
structure is keyed and bolted and
cemented into a solid mass. If it leaned
nine feet more than it does, then it
would fall outside of the center of gravi
ty. The mystery disappears at once
when wo examine it, but the curious
effect upon one’s nerves, in making the
accent, and standing on the top is
nevertheless real. You feel as if you
were about to fall with the whole pile,
and a lady of our party looked with a
deprecating eye at the old sexton as he
swung to and fro the massive bell upon
the tower. Many persons get down
upon the stone floor and try to look
down the slanting wall to the bottom.
It can probably be done but I did not
try the experiment, for several reasons.
It si not a very graceful position, in the
first place, and nothing is gained by
it when accomplished. Like an im
mense winding barrel the interior looks,
and whether from above of below, the
inclination seems much greater than it
really is. The picture of the tower of
Babel very properly represents this
unique building. It is sometimes
illumiuated at night, and the effect is
said to be very remarkable. There
were too few vistors in Pisa to warrant
this expense during my visit.
The old baptistery is chiefly cele
brated for its wonderful echo. My
guide took his position a little to the
left of the altar, and sounded a musical
note : la. It filled the dome, went wind
ing, and spreading, increasing in power.
quivered like an aspen leaf, and then
died away in successive trills tbat were
periectly delightful to hear. I could
have spent hours listening to this echo,
which differs very much from the con-
trovancc in the La Scala theater in
Milan. This is distinctly an echo,
The voice seems to be taken up, the
note prolonged, then amplified in space,
then returning, and, as if gathering
new force, goes back again, wavering
and trembling like gentle billows of
music, until it dies away, as upon the
breath of a gentle sigh. It is beyond
question a curiosity which delights and
rewards the visito* for '*his trouble and
expense. My enjoyment of it was in
terrupted, however, by the entrance
of a prsest and a young couple from
the country who had brought a very
young “bambino” to be christened.
After witnessing the ceremony I with
drew.
TJie “Have Keens.”
The “have baens” constitute a nu
merous class in society which is made
up of people whoso thoughts are ever
on the past. They delight to think of
what they once were, of how they strut
ted their brief hour upon the stage, of
the money and friends they could com
mand, and of the esteem in which they
were held by their follows. But that
perhaps was many years ago. Since
then times have changed and the great,
moving, bustling world has also changed.
The “almighty dollar’’ has taken unto
itself wings and flown away ; the breath
of applause has evaporated as ihe early
clew and
“Friends have been scattered
Like roses in bloom,
Some at the bridal
And some at tho tomb.”
And so, in view of all these adverse
circumstances, tho “have beens” have
settled down, if not into a state of mo
rose melancholy which refuses to be
comforted.—They present a sad plight
in their weeds and ashes, lamenting the
good times past. There arc far more
such people—men aud women—than a
casual observer would imagine. They
are people without energy, and in a
large measure withouthot hope, btuck
fast in the sloughs of despondency.
The world is very little interested in
what you have been. What are you
now ? is the more important question.
Are you fighting manfully against ad
verse winds and tides, determined to
be somebody in the active, living pres«
ent ? Heroism is admired and respect
ed, even by the coward, and he who
rises in spite of circumstances, is sure
to win the plaudit of “well done.”
Christian, in his encounters with Apol-
yon, fell and rose many times before he
came off final victor, and such has been
the experience of many cf earth’s gieat
spirits. Unconquerable energy will call
back the absent fortune and friends, and
reinstate you upon the pesdestal of am
bition. In life’s eontests vicisitudes
are many, but iu our young and vigor
ous country the beggar of to-day may
be the prince cf to-morrow. To win
respect a man must deserve it; be must
display tho elements of true manhood.
Therefore, linger not upon the past for
comfort. If it has its pleasant memo
ries and associations, well and good, if
not. forget it, and fight manfully the
battle of to-day. Fame and fortune
may be ephemeral, but that heroic
courage which stands unflinchingly
alike amid success aud defeats, will sur
vive vicissitudes and come off victor at
last.— Columbm Enquirer.
Tho Misfortunes of Lincoln’s
Partner.
Springfield (Hi) Journal
Bill Herndon is a pauper at Spingfield,
111. He was once worth considerable
property. His mind was the most argu
mentative of the old lawyers in the State,
aud his memory extraordinary. For sev
eral years be’ore Lincoln was nominated
for the Presidency, Herndon was in some
respects the mo3t active member ef the
firm, preparing the greatest number of cases
for trial, and making elaborate arguments
in their behalf. It is said that he worked
with Lincoln in preparing the memorable
speeches delivered by the man who after
ward became President, during the debate
between Lincoln andDonglas in 1853, and
in constructing the Cooper Institute ad
dresses delivered by Lincoln a short time
before the war. Herndon, with all his at
tainments, was a man who now and then
went on a spree, and it was no uncommon
thing for him to leave an important law
suit and spend several hays in drinking
and carousing. This habit became worse
after Lincoln's death, and, like poor Dick
Yates, Herndon went down step by step,
till his friends and associates point to him
as a common drunkard.
The mutilated Money Question.
“I can’t take that nickel," said a horse-
car conductor to a man who got in at city
hall.
“Vot vos de matter mit dot goin ?” ask
ed the passeDger blandly.
“It’s no good. It’s got a hole in it,” re
plied the conductor, gruffly.
“Ish dot >o ? Off you please show me
dot holes."
"Look at it. We Ml take «J each
money as that."
"Excuse me,” smiled the peeaengef, and
he handed over a dime.
"That’s worse yet,” growled the con
ductor.
"Vos dot dime full of holes, too V’ asked
the passenger, looking up innocently.
"Here’s a whole side clipped out. "We
ain’t allowed to take mutilated money,"
and the conductor handed it back.
“Sc?” inquired the passenger. “Hat
you got change for helnfa tollar?" and he
passed over another coin.
“What’s this?” asked the conductor
con temp tvously. “It’s as bald as a deacon.
“It T as bald as a deacon, There ain’t a
scratch on it to show whether it’s an over
coat button or a skating r'nk. Haven’t
you got any more money?”
“Veil, I should make smiles!” said the
passenger good hnmoredly. “Hero is fife
tollar, aud you can paste it together ven
you got some leisures. Hafyou got change
of dot fife tollars ?’ and handed over a bill
torn in four or eight pieces.
I want no more fooling,” said tho con
ductor, “If you can’t pay your fare, get
off.”
“Veil, don’t make so many droubles. I
vil bay you,” he pulled out a Mexican
quarter.—“Gif mo bennies,” he suggested.
“Look here, are you going to pay your
fare or not ?”
“Off gourse. May be you vas vating for
dat moneys,” and he took back hi8 quarter
and substituted an English sixpence.
“Now yon get off this car,” roared the
conductor.
“Vere vos dese cars got byP’ asked the
passenger, rising to obey.
“Fulton Ferry 1” said the conductor.
“Den I may as veil got owid.—You dell
deni gompanies dot some dimes day made
more money as Oder dimes off dey dook
voteffer dey got instead of going mitout
uodings, don'd it.
“And the smiling passenger, having rid
den to the end of the line, crossed the
ferry, observing to himself: “Dot vos
petter off I safe such moneys, and some
dimes to go owit to East Nyarick und it
don’d gosl me no more as notings at all.”

Tl*e foe of Suutlicrn Social Tile
Hew Orleans Times.
The insiduous foe of American social
life, and, regret it as we may, the especial
foe of social life, is the apparent and un
denied tendency to languishing luxury and
effeminacy among the well-to-do young wo
men of our Southern cities and large towns.
Young women, gentle natured, brought up
without a care to ruffle the peaceful happi
ness of their lives, do aot realize how this
dreadful mania for expensive pleasure and
a life of alternate idleness and amusement
is destroying their health, abolishing true
marriage, feeding the flame of gross sensu
ality and intemperance among young men
and sltddeniug the hopes of the best pa
rents in the land. Some ef them will nev
er know in the world. Thousands of good-
hearted girls are sacrificed every year, when
a little wise and loving guidance could have
saved them, but parents are oftentimes too
reticent, too dilatory, too much afraid of
circa ascribing their enjoyment* even
though they know tho danger lurking
therein. But we feel that they should be
warned that they will pass away like the
flowers of June—but, blossom, bloom and
die—and a more hard aDd resolute class
occupy their places. American society is
beginning to grow sensible and progressive,
and it will discard every class of triflers,
male or female, all those who do no work,
as the forests shed their wihtened leaves.
Let them awake from their social dream
of indulgence; learn to live out of doors;
to build up their health ; to cultivate more
simple taste in dress—not necessarily nig
gard or severely plain in quantity or styl
ishness, but with true comfort and with
due regard to the inexorable demands of
sanitation; study domestic economy;
Btudy social skill aDd tact; fit themselves
for the noblest position yet ever offered
their sex, and learn that a true, manly
Southern woman is the jewel of our civili
zation, the soul of onr purest life—not the
tinseled and bedizzened figure of dissipa
tion and decay.
Eli PerkinB is rail mad, spelled back

When is a cat like a teapot ? When

The new stylo of small bonnets may be

“Barber, cut my hair please,” "Close

The lecturer whe bad an audience ef
three old ladies and hia wife said he drew

When you are seated between a lawyer
and a doctor you are in a very dangerous
position, for it is either your money or
your life.
Theodore remarked, when Angelina’s
father shoved him off the doorstep, that
the old gentleman had considerable push
about him.
“He was a kind parent, a good citizen,
and had three horses that could beat 2:30,”
is considered about the right thing for an
obituary in Koutucky.
As outsider thinks this generation is a
great deal more honest than the last. Any
how, explain, there aro not half as many
ladies' dresses “hooked” behind their
backs.
“Oh, dear!” exclaimed Edith to her doll,
“I do wish you would sit still. I never
saw such an uneasy thing in all my life.
Why don’t you act like grown folks, and
be still and stupid for a while.
It is said that a girl who wears No. 2
shoes aDd beautiful hose can be scared into
believing almost every little bit of wood
or stone she sees is c mouse.—Boston
Post.
“What shall I tell tho people who ask
whether you are engaged ?” said the young
lady at the dinner table to a somewhat
eccentric theological student at Andover.
“Tell them that you don’t know,” was the
reply.
No man can go to heaven on another
man’s goodness. Every ticket of admis
sion into paradise is marked “Not trans
ferable,” or in t he language of the colored
thinker, “No gentleman admitted unless
he comes himself.
“A large part of oar happiness,” says
Mr. Beecher, “is due to oar mistakes.”
The printer who got bounced for setting
up “iuferaal” reception for “informal” re
ception may coincide with Mr. Beecher,
but we doubt it.
Did’st ever thou gazo cn a lovely maid,
All glorious, radiant, fair,
And think as thou saw’st those rich red lips
Of the “ unkissed kisses” there ?
Because if thou did’st not, this is a good
time to begia’st.
Tom Hood’s most successful poem sas
the “Song of tho shirt.” A great many
American poets don’t sing that sort of a
song, Because the subject is in use seven
days in the week, and it hasn’t time to be
sung about.
When a corpulent citizen endeavors to
jump off the dummy of one of our cable
roads while on the down grade and falls on
the track in the front of the wheels noth
ing gives him so much genuine satisfaction
as. just when he is about to be crushed to
pulp, to wako up and find himself on the
floor beside his own bed.
The man who tried to explain away his
chicken-stealing experience by saying that
he was a member of the Humane society,
and felt it his duty to thin out the over
crowded hen coops for the sake of giving
them better ventilation, had his board
paid for ninety days by an appreciative
community. Nobody’s talents need go un
seen in this country.
A Cotented Malden.
Sho had been called an old maid, and
ratherjresented it. She said: “I am past
30. I have a good home. I think you
know I have kad abundant opportunities
to marry, I have been bridesmaid a score
of times. I ask myself with which one of
the beautiful girls that I have seen take
the marriage vow would I exchange to-day.
Not one. Some are living apart from
their husbands; some are divorced; some
are wives of drunken men; some are hang
ing on tho ragged odge of society, endeav
oring to keep up appearances; some are
toiliBg to support and educate their chil
dren, aod these are the least miserable ;
some tread the narrow line beyond the
boundary of which lies the mysterious land,
and some have goHe out in the darkness
and unknown herroes, and some are dead.
A few there are who are loved and honored
wives, mothers with happy homes; bat
alas ! only a very few.

If you want to get rich, mount a mule,
because you are on a mule you are better
off.
Never goto bed with cold or damp feet.
In £oittg into a colder air, keep the month
closed, that by compelling the air to pass
circuitously through the Dose and head, it
may become warmed before it reaches the
lungs, and thus prevent those shocks and
sudden cbill3 which frequently end in pleu
risy, pneumonia and other forms of disease.
Never sleep with the head iu the draft of
an open window. Let more covering be
on the lower limbs than on the body.
Have an extra covering within easy reach,
in case cf a sudden and great change of
weather during the mght. Never stand
still a moment out of doors, especially at
street corners after having walked even a
short distance.
