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. King Couton- Wis i y'nii Fast. Probably t! e one great industry in which the southern man takes most jut rest, however, is tlm rais ing mi l in nii.f icturu of cotton. This is 'liv royal plant tint, was the glory and wealth of the south in the pas', and that is no doubt des tined to work out its (iiiaucial salva tion in the future. liy uli tlm signs of tlm tim *s. King Clo'.ton has come to his own again, So prolita blo is tlm cotton litatmfa luring tmsiness that, in certain soct.i uis northern capital goes hogging, the home cop rut,ions having become 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.
