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.

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.
