What an Intelligent and Honest Press Is
Doing for the South.
Philadelphia Press.
"With Congressional representation inca
pable of understanding the importance of
cfrreraided industries and of a hone mar
ket for the heavier products of the mine
and furnace, combined with thi* old free
trade prejudice for raising cotton and noth
ing else and buying manufactured goods,
and an inheii e l dislike to the protection
party of the country, the South lias been
alow to reach its present position on the
economic questions that must soon ob
literate North and South and become the
alividing line of the |>olitical parties of the
future. To the influence of the leading
.Southern newspapers may be traced much
of the industrial progress of the last live
years. It was impossible for these news-
r pers to chronicle from montii to month
d year to year the millions of capital fo
rested in the cotton mills, the blast for.
iiaccs. the workshops and the mining en
terprises of the new South without learning
the two fundamental lessons of protection
—the value of diversified Industries and n
home market. Old prejudices might fora
time blind them and party politics might
for a time influence them, but the building
of new and pros|»erous towns, the employ
ment of thousands of artisans, the increase
in the value of land and of the products
of the farm were substantial and omni
present arguments in favor of the hew
order of things. Drifting, therefore, in
this direction, they naturally enough be
came advocates of the American system of
political economy.
Here is a list of some of the prnicipal
Southern journals who have thus aided in
faoUdfog up the South and who have be
come intelligent advocates of the protec
tive system:
Atlanta (Ga.) Constitution.
Augusta (Ga.) Chronicle and Constitu-
Uonalitt.
Birmingham (Ala.) Daily Age,
Chattanooga (Tenn.) Timet.
Knoxville (Tenn.) Chronicle,
Louisville (Kv.) n*L
Lynchburg (Va.) Virginian.
Macon (Git-) Telegraph.
Memphis (Tenn.) Avalanche,
Mobile (Ala.) Register.
Nashville (Tenn. ) American,
New Orleans (La.) Timet-Democrat,
New Orleans (La.) Picayune,
'Petersburg (Va.) Index Appeal,
Bfchmond (Va.) Dispatch.
Selma (Ala,) Times.
Wheeling ( NV. Va.) Intelligencer.
The importance of the work done by
these influential journals in the South can
not be over-estimated. True, some of them
claim to stand on the slippery Ohio plat
form, but with the surrounding evidences
in favor of protecting American labor an-1
industries increasing from week to week,
the fall from that platform is more likely
*to be into the ranks of the stalwart protec
tionists than the other way. It is gratify
% tng to Pennsylvania to observe the spread
Of the sound economic thought that has
oeen the basis of her own wealth
and progress. There is no reason why Vir
ginia. Tennessee. Alabama and Georgia
ihouldnot become manufacturing States.
They have the necessary natural advan-
. tape’s. The South will never become rich
nosing cotton at ten cents a pound, in
competition with Indian or Egyptian la
bor; nor by making pig iron and nothing
else at fOa ton. in competition with Kuro
pean labor: nor in raising: rice and sugar
with free labor, in competition with slave
labor; nor in weaving the coarsest grades of
cotton cloths and nothing e'se. It will be
come rich with the diversification of Indus-
trim; by making its pig iron into manu
factured iron and its manufactured iron
into machinery and implements of all
kinds; by manufacturing the finest grades
and the greatest variety ot oottin goods;
by protecting Its free labor against the
■are labor of foreign countries; by retain
ing the American standard of wages; by
never ceasing to create a home market
that ahall consume what it pro
duces, and by diversifying its agricultu
ral as well as the manufacturing indus
tries, and thereby save its land from beinir
washed into the Gulf of Mexico.
It is about time the Southern States
cease to be the growers of cotton, the
hewers of wood, the miners of coal and
iron and the smelters of pig iron for the
rest of the country, and take a hand in the
higher manufactures in which skilled lobor
plays a more important part, and which,
as we have aeen, brings out with greater
force the advantages of a protective taritr.
HOW TO BREAK OXEN.
A Westchester Farmer Discloses the
Mysteries of Hia Art.
“Bailing a yoke of oxen/’ said a West
chester county farmer the other day, *‘is a
good deal like raising children. You can
never tell how they are going to turn out
tiU they get too big for yoa to control.
Now, there’s that yoke—gentle, peaceable
cattle as you ever saw. When I first put a
yoke on them 1 said to myself: 'Well, if I
can make anythlng-eut of those sfoer*l’U
give up faming and make a business of
breaking cattle.’ How did 1 do It? Well,
m be hanged if 1 know. A little suasion
and a good deal of coaxing. Brush the
dirt off that stump and sit down and I’ll
tall you something about oxen.
**The first thing Is your breed. Now. if
yon co ild keep a Durham down you’d get
agoodox, but Durbauis grow too stocky.
Fifteen or sixteen hundred pounds is about
as heavy as an ox ought to run. but a Dur
ham will go up into 2,000 pounds without
an effort. Holstein* are open to the uiue
objection. Alderney*, Ayrshire*, and Jer
seys are too light, even if they were not
how must I get them to the post-office
was only a short way, but it might as well
Have been mile?. I was surrounded by
-little boys”—newsboys—and a harder-
looking set I never saw. Bbonld I trust
one of them? Of course. ‘‘Will one of
E on take these letters to”—but I did not
ave to finish, Half a dozen little dirty
bands were outstretched to me. and i
dropped the missives into the nearest one.
Those letters all went safely. Soyon see
there is pure gold in many of these bovs,
and it ought to be none the less valued be
cause of the rustic ore through which it
shines. We hojie the day is coming when
this neglected portion of humanity will be
less blamed for what they cannot help,
and when paternal solicitude will be more
equally divined between the girls and boys.

Hasty Marriages.
Timer Democrat.
The Methodist conference in session in
Philadelphia took very sensible action in
reference to the celebration of marriages
by ministers, advising them to be less hasty
in joining persons in marriage, and to make
a thorough investigation beforehand as to
whether ull the provisions of the law had
been complied with. It was very general
ly agreed by the conference that undue
haste is responsible for many unhappy
couples in this country.
Without looking into the subject at all.
without finding the conditions or relations,
the age or character of the persons candi
dates for wedlock, without even asking
any questions, some ministers read the
service over them that legalized their
union. Nowhere else are marriages so in
formally made as here. There are no pre-
requisitM or formalities, no banns to be
published, nothing to be done. A mo
ments notice, at any time of day or night,
at any place, in the open field or even on
the water, a fear word* from a minister
suffice to make the marriage.
In all other lands the applicants for
matrimony must satisfy • he civil authorities
that they are in a condition to wed and are
not prohibited by some other tie or bond.
Here alone the most perfect freedom is al
lowed. It is not to be wondered at that
with such freedom, unhappy marriage*
should be numerous, and that thousand*
should be joined together hastily ami un
wisely. Easy marriages make easy di
vorces.
This, the Methodist conference recogniz
ed, and it accordingly advised ministers in
the future to make more thorough inves
tigation and inquiry liefore performing
the ceremony, to satisty themselves that
the law has been fully complied with and
the contracting parties can legally marry.
Should other religious sects follow this
example there will be an end of hundreds of
the hasty, silly marriages now contracted
every year, and which nearly always wind
up in separation or divorce.
A Black Letter.
New York Pun.
We print this morning, from the original
manuscript, a fat simile of the second let
ter sent to Mr. Jumes D. Fish by Gen.
Uylsses S. Grant on the day the General
received Mr. Fish's letter saying he h>ui
negotiated notes to the amount of IJUU.OUU
and adding:
"These notes, as I understand it. are
given for no other purpose than to rnNe
money U-t tb« payment of grain, etc., t
till the government contracts.”
This letter of Gen. Grant's is what hi
counsel call “only an ordinary letter in the
course of business.”
We dare say it was an ordinary letter in
the course of such business as was trans
acted by the firm of Grunt tfc Ward.
It is a sort of letter, however, that is un
known in any other kind of business.
It is a black letter, which brings shatne
upon its author, and lusting mortification
to the American people, who have liouur*
cd him so much.
Virginia
New York Times.
Richmond, Mny IX—A suit for $1,000
damages was instituted in the United
.States Court here today by A. Z«*tell».
against the State of Virginia. About ten
days ago Zetelle tendered to the collector
of taxes for this city tux receivable coupon*
for the amount of tax required b\ the Mtute
law for keeping u restaurant. The collec
tor refused to receive them, and Zf telle
gave up business. Now ho sues the State
fur depriving him of the right to legiti
ms ely sup|>ort himself. The writs in the
case were served upon tbo Governor and
the Attorney-General. This suit is b sed
upon the recent decision of Judge Hughes,
of the United States Court, that the elev
enth amendment to the constitution for
bade citizens of another State only to sue a
.State, and that if a case ar sea under the
constitution any citizen of Virginia may
sue the State of Virginia in her corporate
capacity in th« United States Circuit
Court.
Methcdlata and Roman Catholics*
New York Sun.
The Methodist General Conference
advises that the Roman Catholics of
this country be treated as heathens,
and that missions for their conversion
to Methodism be established and “ad
ministered as foreign missions.”
Formerly the Methodists formed nu
merically the strongest religious com
munion in the United Htates. The
seed planted here by Wesley and
Whitfield grew with amazing rapidity,
until at length their followers were
numbered by millions, ami the Metho
dist Church attained immense power.
It was the Church of the plain people,
and therefore appealed to tlio sympa
thies of the majority. Of all the Pro
testant communions the Methodists,
too, carried the most political weight
as a IkhIv, and their friendship was
sedulously cultivated and their preju
dices adroitly catered to by political
leaders.
Within the last generation, however,
the Roman Catholic Church has con
quered for itself the place formerly
held by the 3Icthodi»ts. It is now the
most numerous religious communion
in the United Htates, and is multiply
ing much faster than any other. Built
up by immigration, it holds all it gets
with a firm hand, and takes care to
lose none of the descendants ot the
adherents it receives from abroad,
The Roman Catholic, too, is now the
Church of the poor, of the majority,
and its political influence over-shad
ows that wielded by the Methodists.
It is very natural, therefore, that the
Methodists should b^ jealous of Ro
man Catholic progress and success,
and that they should he alarmed at the
nmrvelloud prosperity of that Church.
Their own growth during the earlier
days of the republic was astonishing,
hut it has been exceeded bv that of
the Roman Catholics since the begin
ning of the vast foreign immigration.
Moreover, while the Roman Catho
lics keep their own in hand, the Meth
odists are steadily losing adherents,
who are either drawn off to other de
nominations or are rushing into infi
delity. They gain many, but many
are taken from tneni also. As Metho
dist families gather riches, the chil
dren are ant to acquire a distaste for
the Church of their fathbrs. It is n#t
fashionable enough for them, nnd they
are ashamed of its homely wavs and
associations. Religious skepticism is
also appearing among the Methodists,
and weakening the force of the body
which of old knew only religious faith
and zeal. I)r. Curry, their chief scho
lar, confesses that lie has come to the
conclusion that many of the Bible
stories are only old women’s tales, and
that the ancient veneration for the
Scriptures as the Won! of God must
slowly di-iappear.
Such liemg the case, does it not
rather behoove the Methodists to look
more carefully after those they have
than to attcinnt the work of aonvertieg
Roman Catholics?
More than that, this is no time for
war among tho different divisions of
the Christian army. They are con
fronted by n common enemy, and their
common safety requires that Catholic
and Protestnnt should tight shoulder
to shoulder a gainst unhid ief.

Tug Greenes boro Herald furnishes
this item: "A few niglita since, a
worthless, mangy cur played havoc
with Mr. L. C. Perdue’, sheep. Kitlier
tho dog or tho .lteep must go. Unless
the next Legislature has more back
bone than former Legislatures, it will
be the sheep.” It remains for the
people to say which shall go—the dog
or tlie sheep. It ought not to be a hard
question to decide.
Tiik Oglethorpe Echo is responsible
for tlie following “stock law” argu
ment : “Wo heard a gentleman say
tho other day that the greatest good of
the stock law will lie the immense
crops of blacklrerrics. The fence cor
ners along the roads are full of them,
and there being no stock to destroy
them, the yield will liegrcnt. The ab
sence of hog. among them, though,
will make;, tlie snake crop as propor

Mr. Harris, ot Bibb, deserves well of
his immediate constituency, ot the
State at large, for his able advocacy of
tlie matter before tbo last Legislature.
It is to be hoped that tlie next Legisla

like Mr. Harris, who understand and
appreciate tho demands of the State
and tlie times, and are willing to meet
such demands by liberal appropria
tions.
Th. Ea.rsOlvorc. Evil.
Morning News.
The number ot divorces is steadily
increasing in proportion to the number
of marriages. The Legislatures of
most of the Htates lutve made divorces
very easy to obtain, and tho courts aro
malting them still easier by their liber
al interpretation of tlie statutes. Di
vorces are now granted for very alight
causes. If they cannot be obtained in
one State they can in another. In al
most every State the civil dockets of
tlie courts contain more divorce coses
than coses of any other kind. It is
useless to enumerate the evil* that flow
front divorces. They ore known and
understood. Destroyed homes and
scattered famili 'S are among the least
of them. It is certainly time that Pro
testant churches made their influence
felt in this matter. They can do a
great deal to create a sentiment that
will compel such a change in the di
vorce laws as will check the evil.
There must be a change in pnldic sen'
timent before there can be any hope ot
a change in tlie laws.
A Story with a Moral.

Tom Burney, of the Macon Tele-
orai-ii, and tlie writer were nitting on
the veranda of the Farnhom House at
Dawson a few evenings ago, when'tbo
question of farm labor came up for dis
cussion—it was not much of a discus
sion, for both parties agreed as to tlie
necessity of something being done to
relievo the planters from the tyranny
of negro labor. Tom told of how one
farmer in Jasper county solved the
problem. The farmer had a large field
of oats to cut, and the negroes of the
neighborhood formed a wort of syn
dicate and struck for high wages.
To accede to tiieir demands was
to lose ail the profits on the
oats, ami as tlie field was tolerably
