was offered at a low price. She advised him
to buy it He told her he could not con
veniently spare the money. He was sur
prised when she offered to loan him the
$100, and asked her how she happened to
have that much. “Why,’* said she, “I have
saved it from the sale of butter, old clothes
and sacks.” When he went to get the cow
she had fieeti sold. I quote this to soften
tlie wrath of husbands, who, when they go
lo get out their last Summer’s clothes find
they have been sold during tho winter.”

The follovring letter was reced from Lord
Wolseley by a lady who formerly resided
In Mobile, and who has many friends here:
War Office, London, 8th Dee., 1883—
My Dear Miss S.: I am grateful for your
kind letter and for the valuable autograph
it contains. I have long been collecting
the letters of eminent people, but have had
much diffbUilty in obtaining those of the
great men on your side of the Atlantic. 1
have only known two heroes in my life,
and General R. E. Lee is one of them; so
you can well understand how I value one
of his letters. I believe that when time has
calmed down the angry passions of the
“North,” General Lee will be accepted in
the United States as the gre*fte9t General
you have ever had, and second as a patriot
only to Washington himself. Stonewall
Jackson. I only knew slightly His name
will live forever also iff American history
when that of Mr. U. S. Grant has been long
forgotten, such at least is my humble
opinion of these men when viewed by an
outside stadent of military history Who has
no local prejudice. I am glad to hear that
my much valued Mend Mrs. L. Is well and
happy. She was one of the brightest and
most loving women I have ever known.
Please remember me to her affectionately
should you soon write to her.
T enclose yon a photograph with very
great pleasure. I shall Indeed be proud
that it finds a place in your collection. I am
also sending one direct to General Beaure
gard, with my best thanks for his kindness
in letting roe b»^e the autograph letters
you have so kindly sent me. *
That of General Beauregard l£ one that I
shall always prize. I am indeed very grate
ful to you for telling me to keep it
Again thanking you most sincerely for
your kindness to me in this matter, believe
me to reman, very faithfully yours,

“What do you think of the general con
dition of the South, and what are its future
prospects ?”
“Undoubtedly the South is making rapid
progress, and is not behind the times.
There are places where change is unknown,
but those are dead places. The increase of
the general wealth of the South since the
war greatly exceeds the loss sustained by
the liberation of the slaves, and this in
crease is the result of the development of
the white people’s energies and talents,
Which before the war had lain dormant.
The exercise of these has opened ore mites,
great coal fields, established industries of
All kinds ahd is enabling the South to use
up in its own manufactories the cotton
grown by it The Northern capitalist and
workman find ready fields of operation, the
one for Investment; which brings speedy
returns, and the other for his skill, which
is well paid. Sectional feeling is dying
away and Northern people are well receiv
ed, especially those who go there to stay
and bring wealth. Why, yes, life and prop
erty, so far as 1 can see, are secure in the
South. Disorder sometimes prevail* else^
where than in the South."
“Yofi stated, General, that you have been
in Charleston. Did you visit Calhoun’s
■grave ?”
“I did. It caused many thoughts of the
past to rise before me. Calhoun’s was a
master mind. Webster, Clay and Calhoun
were a grand trio of statesmen. Clay was
a brilliant orator and a great statesman,
btlt he had not the brains of the others. I
consider Roscoe Conkling a greater states
man than Clay, and so is Senator Ed
munds.”
“Do you think Conkling will again come
from his retirement ?”
“Certainly I do. Why not ? A man like
him will always come to the front. Yes, I
should not be surprised to see him some
day returned to the United States Senate.
Conkling is making money now—lots of it.
He never had time to fully attend to his
own business before, but now he is getting
rich very faAt.”
“What do you think of Senator Ed
munds
“He is a smart man-one of the great men
of this country.”
“Blaine seems to bo quite a favorite irith
the people, General.”
“Well, Blaine’s another good man.”
The correspondent suggested the reluc
tance of the people to nominate a man who
so persistently sought after offico.’
“That’s a fact. When they have any
thing to giro they’ll give it, and without
any person's persistent seeking.”
“Secretary Lincoln appears to be a uni
versal favorite for the Republican nomi
nation for the Vice Presidency,” was a re
mark which proved an effectual rouser for
the veteran.
"Yes; and if I had anything to say about
It I would say to him, refuse it. To be
elected Vice President means to arouse
Jealousies and envy against him—some-
thlqg that does not now exist. He is too
young notY for the Presidency, but if he
would wait a few years the people would
quietly elevate him to the chair. Blaine’s
haste in his Presidential aspirations de
feated his chances for that high gift of the
people, and if Lincoln accepts the nomi
nation for Vice President he will never be
come President. If he waits awhile he
will some day fill his father’s high place In
the government.”
“Where Is yovfr Son now—Senator Don
Cameron?”
“The last time wo * heard from him he
and his party were in Barcolonla, Spain.
He Is Improved in health and efijoys the
European trip which he is now; making.
■When will he return? Well, I can’t say; but
from the tone of his letters I think some
time this summer.” __
“Is Tilden too old for ‘ho Democrats to
nominate for the Presidency?”
“I don’t think so. Ho Is a strong man in
New York. He Is feeble, perhaps, but not
too old. Mr. Tilden is an able and acute
man. No, sir, he Is not too old for the
nomination if his party chooses to give it
too him.”
“Senator Bayard would be a strong can
didate for the So retention for President if
his State was only larger and could give
him moVe votes, would he not?”
“Yes; he would. A fine man and a good
statesman, Bayard would poll a strong vote
at the convention if he were only backed
by a larger State. That is his misfortune.
I am intimately acquainted with the Dela-
were Senator, and have a high’ degree of
respect for him. He is a good,- honest
man.”
EDITORIAL BREVITIES,
Mr. Blaine shakes his head when the
Presidency is mentioned to him.
During the year 18S3, 34,521 emigrated
from Holland, of whom 34,157 came to tho
United States.
Stonewall Jackson’s fellow-officerS are
suggesting a simple monument of some sort
to his memory at Manassas.
The Supreme Court of New York has de
cided that the money a widow receives as
insurance on her husband’s life cannot be
taken for debts incurred before his death.
John B. Gough, in his lecture at Utica,
illustrated the importance of faith in pro
moting human happiness. “The only
drawback at a boarding house,” he said,
“Is the want of confidence in what is placed
on the table.”
j The shad planted in the Ocklockonee
I four years ago have reported. Dr. Hanekel,
who returned from Carabelle last week,
tells us that great numbers of the fish
were being taken. We hope that not enough
will be caught to interfere with their ex
tensive and general propagation in the
waters of our Gulf coast.
Metairo, the most fashionable cemetery
In New Orleans, was a race course a few
years ago. It then belonged to ati aristo
cratic club, which blackballed the president
of a lottery company when he made appli
cation for membership. By way of revenge
he bought the grounds and gave them to
tho city for a cemetery.
The Savannah News, noting the suspen
sion of the Campbell Cotton Mills, of Phila
delphia, because of strong competition in
the South, pertinently remarks: ‘ ‘Southern
manufacturers are beginning to make
themselves felt. Let the Campbell com
pany cbme South and grow up with tho
country.” Good advice, and, what is more,
advice which must evidently be adopted.
And the sooner the protective tariff is re
duced, the sooner it will be adopted.

Mr. J. R. Randall, tho Washington oor-

thus of our own immediate Congressman:
“Mr. Turner’s conduct of Mayor-Garrison j 100 qqq Cabbage Plant
contested election case was admirable, and, j ties now on sale
although assailed by Rannoy, the great'
lawyer, and John S. Wise, whom Randolph
Tucker called “the transient member from
Virginia,” he splendidly disposed of tho
bad law of the one and blatherskite impu
dence of the other. He was listened to
with attention of an unusual character, and
members crowded around to catch every
word he said. Judge Rttnncy grew rod and
wrathful under Turner’s castigation of
him, and John Wise beheld in tho swarthy,
dark-eyed Georgian his coming execu
tioner.

Cincinnati Enquirer.
Talk about pretty girls—but she was a
wild flijwer and no mistake ! She got on
the train to go to Meridian from Vicksburg,
and she wa3 all alone. There was a sort of
sidelong movement among five or six men,
but a drummer for a Philadelphia saddlery
house was there first. He grabbed up his
grip and walked square up to her seat and
took possession of it without asking a
question, and in tSsti minutes he seemed .to
be perfectly at home. She answered his
questions briefly, and he had the hardest
kind of work to keep up a conversation,
and as the train approached Jackson she
suddenly said :
“I want to telegrah papa from here. Will
you help me ?”
“Oh, certainly. I have a blank in my
pocket Write your telegram and I will
run into the office with it.”
•We missed him when the train started,
but by-and-by he was found in another car,
his hat crashed down and hia nerves all op’
edge. When asked what had happened,
he drew forth the telegram which the girl
had requested him to hand in. It read :
“Bring your shotgun with you to pop
over a drummer who has dreadfully an
noyed me. Shoot to kill.”
“To think,” he gasped, “that one so fair
could be so murderous. Why, I’m all in a
sweat. I want some of you to stand by
me.”
We got his grip from the seat, traded
hats and coats with him, and the way he
slid from the depot wien the train reached
Meridien caused a hotel porter to observe :
“Well, now; but that white face belongs
to an Invalid and them legs to a deer.
What sort of a coon can he be ?”

A Greast Glntian
Charles Pearsalls, the Fulton market fish
dealer, says a New York special, walked
into Roe’s restaurant this afternoon to eat
the last Installment of sixty eggs a day for
five days that he contracted to eat on a bet
of $25. He ate thirty this forenoon and the
thirty this afternoon finished the job. The
thirty eggs Weighed three and three-
quarter pounds with the shells on. They
were boiled two and one-half minutes and
then dumped into fear glasses, hording
about a pint each. Young Pearsalls took
off his coat, rolled up Ms cuffs and pro
ceeded’ to drink his eggs as he wouJtf so
much coffee. The.first glassful disappear
ed in' ive seconds, the second in seven
seconds, the third in eight seconds and the
fourth in six seconds. There was nothing
left of the thirty eggs but the shells. Pe&r-
salls lit a cigar and said be felt no incon
venience and that he would eat sixty more
eggs to-morrow just for good measure. He
has bet $15 to $10 that he will eat forty at a
sitting to-morrow. ^

A Familiar I'hromo.
Wall Street News.
My son, if you are corning into Wall
street to speculate, come well heeled. That
is, bring about one hundred thousand dol
lars with yon. A man tray be handsome
and evdr so good, but when it comes to
margins the brokers want cash.
After you have got here with your cash
you want to sit down and study a few of
the big 8pecflaatorsf; Gould, Vanderbilt,
Sage,, Keene, add tho' rest of the boys
have their peculiar traits and tricks. It
will be worth $10,000 to you to know that
when Gould turns bull it is' out of pore
kindness to suffering friends Whose stocks
have been crawling backwards.
You will make some money. The chances
are ninety-nine in a hjindred that you will
feel exultant and puffed up, and you will
pity men who haven't the nerve to specu
late. You will find yourself sailing with a'
Calf breefe and a clear sea, and if your
arms are long enough you will pat yourself
on the back.
Then you will put yonr hat cm your ear
and bait your hook for big fish. You’ll
get a bite or two amid feel tickled to death.
You may even haul a sucker half way out
of the water, but all of a sudden away goes
hbox and line and pole, and an ice wagon
knocks you down, an omnibus runs over
you, a policeman dubs your bleeding re
mains, and a got^i hearted blind man
