THE LECTURE
BY ER. QUIbG A SUCCESS.
A. Large Crowd Attended, and
the Affair Was a Success in
Every Sense—But Nothing
Else Was Expected from the
Doctor. i
Dr. _ Quigg , , lecture , .. Ilday . , ,
s Oil
©veiling of Inst week was very 1
entertaining. ° The doctor took j
Ins , , audience ,. from „ Conyers , , to .
New York, thence to the Ber¬
mudas, thence to Gibraltar, to
Algiers and then into Egypt, the
homo of the Phariaohs. He says
the Bermuda Islands are the
most beautiful of all lands ever
visited by him, ami he has been
over a great portion of the earth.
His description made one feel
like going there to be happy <ls
he said everybody there is hap
py- The great rock of Gibral¬
tar four miles wide and several
long was grand beyond concep¬
tion. His account of Egypt,
manners and habits of the peo¬
ple, interspersed with scraps of
of history of the olden times,
and Bible records was intensely
interesting. His details of don¬
key rides and camel shippings
were amusing; his estimate of
the Turk’s character not very
complimentary.
The lecture was necessarily
lengthy, vet the attention of the
audience was held to the end
The house was well filled, over
two hundred tickets being sold.
Though the admission fee was
small between $20 and $25 were
received. The public is greatly ‘
indebted to the ladies of the
Presbyterian church and to l)r.
Quigg for the entertainment.

A Part of the New South.
Julian Ralph's description in Har
pot's Magazine of uortliern Alebama,
Teonosseo and Georgia reads rather like
torno tale cf tho magical growth of a
region mirier the spell of an enchanter’s
wand. in u?so the great industrial re
vival in tho sooth began. It was liternl
ly a revolution of the old indnstrial rjs
terns. I
From Roanoke, V. , to Birmingham,
Ain., extends tho great coal and iron re
gion of tho south, it spreads into West
Virginia aud eastern Kentucky in
Kentucky tho coal veins yield pure can- !
nel, semianthracite and bituminous
coal. Tho Chattanooga district contains
20,000 square miles in three 6tates, Ten
nessee, northern Alabama anti Geor¬
gia. Ono mining plant near Birming¬
ham turns out 000,000 tons of high
grado coking coal in a year.
A remarkable fact connected with the
mining bolt in question is that all
through its extent iron ore, limestone
and coal run along together Within a
stone's throw of tho coal mine is tho
vein of iron ore, and in the mountain
sides is tho limestone to mako the lime
used in smelting and clearing the iron
ore. With coal, iron and limo thus to¬
gether under ground and a soil richly
adapted to grazing, farming and fruit
raising above, the new sonth is indeed
blest beyond almost any other region
on tho globe.
The men that talco tho lead in devel¬
oping the mineral resources of the south
are themselves chiefly southerners. But
the capital they use is northern and
British. In tho year 1870, 1150,000 tons
of pig iron were made in tho Chatta¬
nooga district. Twenty years afterward
1,800,000 tons were made. The iron is
sent north to bo manufactured. Tho new
south has yet few factories where iron
and steel articles are made. She mnst
still send north for nearly all her plows
and cooking stoves. But the factories
■will come. Plainly nature in thus
patting cheap fuel, and iron mines to¬
gether meant factories to follow.
Mining and manufacturing can bo
carried on cheaper iu tho south than in
the north. Labor is cheaper, andthocli
mato is milder. Tho negroes makegood
minors when they aro strictly “bossed,”
Mr. Ralph says. And thore is no boss so
eavago and merciless as a black one.
negroes usually mino the iron ore
and white men the coal. The mining
region of which the Chattanooga dis
triot is part includes seven states—the
two Virginias, North Carolina, Georgia,
Tennessee, Alabama and Kentucky.
Indian Territory has a largo negro
population. Homo of tho blacks wore at
first slaves of the noble red men. But
when the slaves in this country were
emancipated these became freedmen
and still lived among their former mas¬
ters. Tho black and red blood in many
coses intermingled. Theronre unmerons
half breeds in tho territory who are part
negro and part Indian. After the war
many negroes migrated to Indian Terri¬
tory from tho southern states, swelling
tho number still more. Many of them
aio tho tenant farmers of tho landown
era But tho court of claims at Wash¬
ington has decided that the black men
iu the territory have just the same rights
as tho red moil, and that all are citizens
alike. Consequently the Cherokee freed
ruen will share equally with the Chero¬
kee Indians in the distribution of mon¬
eys paid to tie nation by tho United
States for the sale of lauds.
The city of Morocco, lately plundered
and damaged by the sultan’s own rebel
subjects, was founded as long ago as
1073. At tho beginning of the seven¬
teenth contury it had a population of
7o0,000. Nowit is falling into ruin
and decay and has only 50,000 inhabit¬
ants. Its declino marks with equal step
tho ruin and decay of the Moorish race,
formerly a noble, cultivated and proud
people. Tlio Moors preserved about all
tho science and civilization there were
in tho middle ages. Their decline can
bo accounted for in no other way than
by tho conclusion that as a race they
have lived their time out. As they went
down, so the Anglo-Saxon race will go
down sooner or later.

help maintain the interest of the pa¬
