Brighter for Cuba,
Representative H. D. Money, who

went, to invstigute the condition of
affairs himself, is quoted in tae New

oAt the very outset I will say

that Spain is unable to cope with this
insurrection, She will never put it
down. Spain will never end this war
with victory to-lerself.
oThis is also the opinion of Consul!
General Fitzhugh Lee, and he has here-
before express.d it to Secretary Olney.

the rigbt of the SpeakerT s chair. They
were received with manifesiations o{
applause. The oaths of office were ad-
ministered by Chief Justice Faircloth.
Mr. Chas. H. Mebane, the new Super-
intendent cf Public Insvruction, was
the first to take the oath. He was vis"
: bly. very much embarrassed, and was
80 nervous that his hand shook when
he appenaed his name to the oaths in
the book kept for that purpose. The
~oabs were then administered to the
other officers, each siguing his name in
the book kept for that purpose, in the
followi ig order :
Hal. W. Ayer, State Auditor.
Cyrus Thompson, Secretary of dtate.
Wm. H. Worth, State Treasurer.

was received with great applause. [is
opening sentence, hurled from hi®
mouth with a spirit that looked malev"
olent, oThere is retribution in history,�
was received with a thunder of applause,
jel by the negroes who swarmed in th®
right gallery.
His tace lit up with the culminating
malice of twenty years, as he received:
this endorsement from those whom he
termed osavages,� and he turned his
eyes up to the black gallery and give
them some more-ot the spirit. of slander
gt his State that was so conspicuous in
his campaign. His denunciation of
electicn frauds, which composed the
next section of his preface cf venom
~was alco joytully received in the gallery
~Those who have studied the. electioa
returns know that Judge Russell was
~himself elected by fraud, and importa-
tion and bribery, secured through a law
of which he is the author. In this light
his air cf oJ um more holy than thou�

Tthe address until he came to discuss
the railroads. He startedTout in # line,

Vance -Walser, Jim Boyd. and other
atiorneys of Southern Railway, by |
speaking of the great valus of the rail"
roads to the peopie, and the debt they
owed the capitalists who built them.
But these attorneys were not happy
long, for pretty soon the new Governor
jumped on the lease ~of the North Car-
olina Railroad with both feet, and gave
unanswerable reasons why it shouid be
speedily annulled. . Warming up to his
subject, he dropped his Manuseript as
the perspiration rolled dowa tis face,
and said: o
oyet me stop here and speak on the
a
impulse of the moment, but not without
due deliberation, and a deep sense of its
import and with all respect to you. If.
this foreign corporation is not compelled |
to pay for this property a sum commen-
surate with their ueeds and its value to
them, the fault will be with this Geueral
Assembly.�
There was some applause at tals ex-
temporan¢ous declaration that if the
lease is not revoked othe fault wiil be
with this General Assembly,� Lut the
aforesaid Republican Southern Railway
attorneys, and other attorneys and poli.
ticians who are down here on free
passes, didnTt join in the applause.
They were cold, pale, silent constrain-
ed. They sat looking as if they had
partakpn of something that did not
egree with them until Governor Rus-
sell got back to bis partisanship about
~the solid South is broken,� and other
such Republican stock-in"trade talk,
and then these tellows joined the osav-
ages� and made the hall ring with
their applause of partisanship when
they were silent over their own Gover"
norTs vigorous attack upon the lease.
Plenty of'cheers for narrow partisan-
ship ; not a word for protecting the in-
terests of the State !
The declaration in favor of fostering

THE SOUTHERN GIRL.
An Attempt to Analyze a Young Woman
oWhe Ws Superior to Analysis.
- The southern girlis many sided.
She is metilesome and sentimental,
practical and fanciful by turns,: apt
to dance divinely and to flirt and to
be notT overcareful nor overindus-
trious, but she never forgets to say
her prayers, and she has unshaka-
In man she believes implicitly.
She may not believe all the raptur-
ous things he says to her, but she
credits him with generous impulses,
emotions and values him as a com-
rade, an admirer and a repository
for romantic confidence. If he tum-
bles out of the niche where she has
| put him, she wonders, but is willing
; to regard thecase as an exception
for smoothing ever rough places for!
her and romoving any obstacles that |
may risc in hLorwath. Men are al-|
ways good to women, she thinks" '
her father is,.and so is her brother}
and her ecusin Jim,
The southers girl enjoys with all,
her heart. She likes music and mo-
tion and life «and color and plenty
of nice people about her saying
pleasant things. She likes all this,
but she is seldom mercenary. Rear
ed usually:among simple surround.
ings, the greed for money has nat
for her ~to -have attained her twen-
tieth year'and never to have dined
or supped: outside of a private house
in her life. She likes the person
who pleases her, independent of his
extrinsic ~surroundings, and at:any
time will slight the attentions.of a
~good match�T to devote herself tc
the man whose waltz step suits her
| and whe has power of entertaining.
; She is ingenious and tactful, ~with
all herelawdling ways and languid
| airs. She can turn her last.seasonTs
| ball dress upside down and inside
out and make it look almost, as
good as new, and she can darn the
parlor curtains almos: os well 2s

granamother cotua-ana change the
furniture round so that the shabby
spots will be in the shade. She cah
arrange a dish of fruit to resemble
a poem, make an evening bonnet
out of next to nothing, and, last but
not least, she can rattle off nonsense
with an infectious delight that
makes her the life of whatever com-
pany she is in,
The southern girl or woman born
in the murky atmosphere of the late
sixties, imperfectly educated, debar-
red from advantages which her par-
ents craved for her, will give the
stranger an impression of culture
which perhaps a critical examina-.
tion would not bear out.
The southern girl is a parodox,
with her capacity for unselfishness
and absurdity, with her pride and
scorn of petty meanness ond her
serious strivings aftcr the cconom-
ical. She will buy flowers for the
table oven if the lardcr is empty,
and if she gcts a windfall in the
form of a legacy she will put half
of itin a marblecrogsferths nw.)
and the other half in some i +cl
for personal adornment, even
though new curtains and carpets
and whole everyday gowns cro a
crying need in the heuschold.
The new woman finds littlo en-
couragementin the south. Shesends
out her piping notes to the northern
suffrage societies and offers peti.
tions to the state assemblies, but the
popular voice is against hor, and
sometimes it comes out that the
womanTs suffrage associations of
the south, so much talked about,
have membership only sufficient to
furnish the necessary officers."New
