THE SOUTH Ss OPPORTUNI ry.
The ManufacturersT Record, of Bal-
timore, in jast weekTs issue says ;
oJn the cetton-mill sitaation in New
England 1s one of the greatest oppor-
tunities for industrial development ever
presentdd to the South, and the Man-
ufacturersT Record Publishing Co., in
furtherance of its work for this séction,
undertakes to send t cotton
mill in the New England and Middle
every
States not now a subscriber, and to
leading cotton-mill investors, a copy of
the ManufacturersT Record every week
for the next three menths, and to keep
in close touch by correspondence wit�
these mills. We believe that this is
one ofthe most important efforts which
the ManufacturersT Record has ever
made in behalf of Southern develop-
ment.

of New England,

that section, which represents the con-

a limit to such attainments. Artificial
conditions may for a time be maintain-

Well Fixed at Cuka.
The position of the United
States co far as Cuhais concerned
coulda not he improved unon.
Under the wise and conserva-
tive management of Consul Gen-
eral Lee, American interests will
recieve every possible attention,
and this governmen!Ts honor will
be upheld in a wav that no city of
this country can complain of.
Then with the American war
vessels, within reach- of Consul
General LeeTs orders, there need
be no fear that American interests
will not be fully protected.
And even with the present
force of war vessels which are
within short sailine distance ef
Cuba, the United Ststes is not
acting in any way contrary to her
rights, or unwisely rushing into
any tronble that may threathen
by this show of force.
Within the three years which
have passed since this insurrec-
tion began in Cuba, this countryTs
commercial interests have been
greatly affected, our foreign com-
meres suffering to the extent of
eichty million dollars a year.
Besides this tiere has heen the
expense entailed upon the gov-
ernment of preventing filibuster-
ing, and the damaged property

Cubs.
These two thipgitean millions

prise to many people to find

A Proposed Amendment
A proposed amendment to the
constitution of the United States
recently offered by Senator W. P.
~rye, of Maine, calls attention to
a glaring defect which has long
existed in that instrument. |
This defect is one of omission.
As the constitutionT now reads
there is po provision made for the
selection of a chief magistrate in
the event the President slect
should die or become disabled at
any time prior to the date fixed
for his inauguration as President.
Of course the spirit of the consti-
tution uvmistakablv implies that
the Vice President eect in such a
cise is the man to step :into the
President electTs shows. This is
eyident not only from the fact
that the Vice President elect is
tha choice of the people for the
office nextin dignity to that of
that ifthe President should die
after his inauguration the Vice
Presideat would immediately suc�
ceedto the position thus made
vacant, hut while it is clearly the
intent of the constitution that the
Vice President elect should step
into the President electTs placa in
the event of the latterTs death or
disability, there is no provision to
this effect madein that instru-
ment. Up tothe present time the
occasion for substituting someé
oue else in place of the President
elect has never presented itself:
although several Presidents have
died shortly after their formal in- |
duction into office.
The objact of Senator Frve's
preposed amendment is to covey
the defect in the constitution
above pcinted out and to provide
for the inauguration of the Vice
President elect as chief magis-
trate in the event of the Presi-
dent electTs. death or disability.
Asthe proposed amendment is
legal rather than poilitical in
character, itis not fikely that
anv serious opposition thereto
will be deyeloped."Atlanta Con-
stitution. |

Patent Medicine.
Dr. Dedwel' relates an interesting
accT unt of what he considers » remark-
able cure of acute stomach trouble and
chronic dyspepsia by the use of the
new discovery, StuartTs Dyspepsia
TabletTs.
He says. The patient was a man
who .ad suffered tomy knowledge tor
years with dyspepsia, lverything he
ate seemed to sour and create acid and
gases in the stomach; he had pains lke
rheumatism in the back, shoulder blades
and limbs, fullness and distress afte
eating, poor appetite and loss of flesh;
the heart became affected, causing pal-
pitation and sleeplessness at night,
I gave him powerful nerve tonics
and blocd remedies, but to vo purpose.
Asan experiment I finally bought a
fifty cent psckaye of StuartTs Dyspep-
sia Tablets at a drug store and gave
them tohim, Alimost immediate rel ie!
was given and after he had used tour
boxes he was to all appearances fuilv
cured.
There was no more acidity or sour
watery risings, no bloating atter mealss |
appetite was vigorous and he has gained

of solid healthy flesh.
Although StuartTs Dyspepsia ~Tav-

stores yet I consider them a most val-|

of remedies, as they are perfectly ha:m-|

THE MOCKING BIRD,
fie Is Not eavk a Great Mimic and Is a
. Natural Thief.
Very few persons ever visit the
southern portion of the United States
and become at all familiar with its
woodland life without being capti-
vated by that prince of singers, the
mocking bird. Not only as a musi-
cian, but in general ~~smartness, �T he
is far and away ahead of anything
else that flies. He is the ~~Yankee�T
among birds. In vivacity, in clever-
ness, in a quick and dexterous use
of his small but brilliant brain, it
~would be hard to point out his equal,
and when in the springtime the
woods resound with his clear, flute-
like and extultant notes even the
man, if such there be, ~~who hath
ono music in his soulTT would find it
hard to resist the contagious good
humor of his glad and gleeful song.
And yet the mocking bird (Mimus
polyglottus) is incorrectly named.
He is by no means a natural mimic,
Half adozen birds could be men-
tioned that in this particular far sur-
pass him. This may seem a very
strange thing to say, in view of the
stories current so abundantly illus-
trating and emphasizing this sup-
posed gift.
Asto the morals of this little past
master of song, the truth must be
told, he has norespect for theeighth
commandment. He is a thief, a cun-
ning, inveterate, unscrupulous **
veyerTT of other people's property.
Peaches, grapes, strawberries, figs,
Japan persimmons, surinam cher-
ries, catley guavas, are to him le-
gitimate plunder. With the excep-
tion of oranges, bananas, pineapples
and ordinary guavas, which he ney-
er touches, nothing is sage from his
depredations, Scarecrows/donTt even
amuse him when he has made up his
mind to sampl¢ fruit. He is a capi-
tal judge, tq0, and always selects
the largest/Tipest and most juicy
specimens /for his repast. No eco-
nomic cgusiderations trouble him
either. takes a bite here and a
nibble theve and ruins 20 times as
muchas heconsumes. Bagging fruit
is no protection, for he only tears
the bags to pieces and helps himself.
Even vines and fig trees incased in
mosquito netting ure not secure; the
little marauder will get in somehow
and complacently take what he
wants.
Khe!
Yet in spite of all this the bene-
fits received by the south land from |
this cunning little giver of sweet
sounds and lover of sweet fruits
vastly outweigh all the damage that
he does, however vexatious it may
be. Bugs~and worms and creeping
things swarm here the year round,
The mocking bird is essentially in-
sectivorous, His ~~steady dietTT con-
sists of the enemies that the horti-
culturist and the fruit grower have
most occasion to dread, He takes
his fruit by way of dessert and has
fairly earned it like a good boy by
eating first a substantial dinner,"
Norman Robinson in AppletonsT
Popular Science Monthly.
Tricks of the Types.
A writer in MacmillanTs Magazine
offers in an article on printersT er.
rors some superb ~~mixes,TT as blend
ings of alien paragraphs are called.
We borrow a couple. The first owes
its characier to an interpolated linc
from a report of a public meeting:
oOn the 8d inst., at Elkington,
the wife of J. 8S. Terry, schoolmas-
ter, of ason. He spoke indistinct-
ly, but was understood to say that
on the 3d inst., at Ripon, the wife
of Joseph Landseer, tailor, of a
daughter.�T
The second occurred in a descrip-
tion of the campaign of Roman
| Catholic missionaries in central Af-
rica:
oThey are accustomed to begin
their w ork by buying heathen chil-
dren and educating them. The
easiest and best way to prepare
them is to first wipe them with a
clean towel, then place them in drip-
ping pans and bake them until they
are tender. After which cut them
in slices and cook for several hours. �T
Cultere of Licorice.
Surely,in some part of our great
country, licorice would be found to
thrive. And yet, so far ag has come
to the knowledge of MeehanTs
Monthly, all attémpts to cultivate it
have failed. The difficulty seems
to be with the summer sun. Leaves
blight and turn brown as soon as
the weather becomes warm, but this:
would probably not be the case in
eubmountainous regions. When it
is remembered thatT nearly 20,000
tons of these roots come into the
United States every year from the
old world its culture here is surely
a prize worth contending for."Mee-

THE GREAT PACIFIC.
The Future of That Ocean Is the Future
of the World.
The relations of the great powers
are changing, and the Pacific is he
coming the center of their striving.
The powers that adjoin this ocean
are destined to be the actors in the
next drama of the world and the
Pacific the stage thereof. England
is the greatest of these powers.
This she owes to Canada and to her
possessions in the east. Russia is
destined to a future greater than
England's present. France is mak-
ing desperate efforts to build up for
herself an Asiatic foothold in this
company. ChinaTs vast population
and wide territory make her another
factor in the problem. She may be
conquered and enslaved for years,
but the great vitality, the great in-
dividuality, the exclusive cohesive-
ness of her people, seem to destine
her to an ultimately independent
national existence. She must even-
tually emerge irom her position of
subjection and inferiority and be-
come one of the great nations of the
earth. JapanTs role will boa smaller
one, but the inherent identity of her
interests with ChinaTs must make
them allies against Europe in work-
ing out their common destiny. In
the hands of these powers lies the
future of the Pacific, and the future
of the Pacific is the future of the
world,
Our country cannot shut its eyes
to this condition. The people of
America, with a rapidly increasing
population producing more than
they can consume, with an aggres-
sive character that brooks no oppo-
sition, with a coast line greater than
that of any power ef Europe, dotted
with flourishing cities, constitute a
factor in the future of the orient
that no apathy, no neglect, can be-
little. Whatever policy we may
have inherited as to entanglements
with European powers must be dis-
carded here. The people of the
United States must not be contené
to see their neighbors to the west,
with their boundless potentialities
of trade, handed over, an uncontest-
ed prize, to the ambitions of Eu-
rope. America may attempt to
evado the responsibility thrust upon |
her. She may, with shortsighted |
resolution, turn her face away from
her great future, but sho will not
succeed, The markets of the orient
are the heritage of her merchants
and the time will inevitably come
when the voice of the republic will
be heard in oriental courts with the
same accent of authority as in the
commonwealths of South America.
It will be well if the certainty of
this destiny could be recognized be-
fore Eurepean statesmanship has
barred the way with/~~vested inter-
ests.�T-""Charles Denby, Jr., Secre.
tary of the United: States Legation

view.
Assumption Corrected.
The traveling Amoricé am must ex-
ly in the old world, when his love
for his own country leads him, after
the manner of all patriotic travel-
ers, {0 vaunt it a little. An amusing
instance of this kind is related by a
corr sspondent, of the New York
Pos:, writing of a visit to Grey-
fria.sT churchyard at Edinburgh
The sexton was aman of Aber-
deenshire and took pleasure in
showing the visitor the grave of
Duncan Ban Macintyre, a Gaelic
poet, and in interpreting the Gaelic
inscription on it, as if it were the
chief glory of his charge. His heart
was in the highlands plainly. The
visitor had heen at GreyfriarsT be-
fore and said to the sexton, as the
old man pocketed his fee:
oT have seen your highlands since
I was here last.�T
oOh! said he, with inimitable
highland inflection. ~oAnd had ye
never been there before?�T
oNo, [have never been in Scst-
land before. I live in America,�T
oOh! oLisa graund country that.
~America? It is indeed!�T
The old man looked up in utter
surprise. ~o~Nay, nay,T he said in:
patiently, ~~the hielands! A graund
country !�T
