There is an a lv.intake, allot' all,
in being aQu on as well in a wo
man, a hen a heroic act is to bo re
cognized in an ert'oetive us w II as
a tender way. And it must be ac
knovvl. dyed tlml Q teen Victm ta
never fails to use this, her [ leroga
f ive, with admirable and tine dis
cretion. Two English soldiers, it
will be remi'iiibi rod, Melville and
Coghill, were killed at the hittie of
Isandula, Zal- land, while bravely
attempting to rescue the colors of
their regiment, Tivir widows were
pensione |, of eour.se, but the
Queer‘s own worn inly heart sug
gested a further and more gracious
recompense, .She sent out by the
Empress Eugenie two wreaths, and
liie Jan press, after she had made
her pilgrimage to the spot where
her son was killed, continued her
journey to find the graves of these
obscure English soldiers and to lay
the wreaths upon them with Inn
own hands. She wrote afterward
it letter to the 12 men describing the
wild, grand spot where they are
buried, the heroic circiimstanoes of
their death, as she had been able
to learn them, a 1 ling a tow words
of earnest symp 'hy tor lit. in and
congratulations for the sovereign
who hud men so bravo to lose—dl
of which ttie Q teen copies in her
own hand ad sondi with a letter
of earnest sympathy to the widows
of tlie dead heroes. Certainly there
is so.nothing in being a woman as
well ns a Q usui. Even to a nr so
Meal American m turning fir her
dead, tlm knows' Igo that these two
women, who had been seated upon
thrones, ban util’ r. and precisely like
herself, and held Out their hands
to her in sympathy, would bring a
cei tain consolation. To loyal Eng
lishwomen the few scribbled w ilds
would out value all pensions or re
wards.

Probably t! e one great industry
in which the southern man takes
most jut rest, however, is tlm rais

wealthy enough to carry on tlio
business, The culture of cotton is
rcHtimfl, but with a difference. In
Head of inerely raising and selling
tlm MW mat. rial, southern tnoil
seek tlm policy of manufacturing,
both for home use and export. The
day is not distant when the fin tsl
lab tics will bo maanfactur.) 1 in the
south, and in the meantime the de
mand for what they already pro
duce is so great that the mills have
orders for all they can furnish fur
months to come. In every way tlm
plant is utilized. Mmy things are
now being nude from the oil con
tamed in c tton seed— oil mills are
in successful operation, and it is
becoming one of the valuable pro
ducts of the f-otth. A'fogether,

If our new minister to Spain, Mr
Hannibal Hamlin, serves to the end
of Arthur’s term he will have boon
in public service forty-nine years,
thus exceeding J dm Quincy Adams*
service a year. Next, comes Lewis
Cass, who served forty-four years,
Henry Clay was thirty-seven years
an oflieeholder; James Buchanan
thirty-six years, and Thomas II
Benton thirty-two years. Tie last
named was a senator thirty years,
which is just the extent of Mr*
Hamlin's service in the senate, in
cluding a term as vice-president.
