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.

I am the same Ilid- 1>ays Lanu Syne.” 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.” FUIM. 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 wards. When is a cat like a teapot ? When yonr teasin’ it. The new stylo of small bonnets may be photographed by slammin a ripe tomato against a board fence. “Barber, cut my hair please,” "Close mr?” “Ne yon ean leave the roots 1” and he left them—nothing mere.” The lecturer whe bad an audience ef three old ladies and hia wife said he drew a full house—three of a kind and a pair. 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.
