DRIVING ON FOOT.
The present generation is peculiarly
ncivoui and impatient, and it in not
unlikely that the great speed of travel
to which men have now attained has
contributed smartly toward producing
this impatience. On this line of thought
read the following news item:
"A drove of 166 tuikcys re.ir.hci!
has been di- here to-day, having been driven on

himself more of the fruits found by

of these turkeys one hundred miles is
the old -time practice of driving hogs
across the Blue Ridge into central and

EMPLOYMENT FOR WOMEN.
The number of white women in this
city who earn their own livelihood in
different callings is estimated, on ro-xl
authority, to be as high as six thou
sand; but whether these figures ate ex
actly correct or not, the number of
white women who support themselves
in mis city oy their own labor m proba
bly greater in proportion to the popa
lation than it is in any of the Southern
cities. Indeed, the proportion will
bear very favorable comparison with
the number of women employed
in the great cities of the North.
This fact speaks well for the liberali
ty of sentiment which prevails among
those w ho control the industrial inter
ests of this community. The enlarge
ment of the industrial sphere of wo
men is one of the most truly benefi
cent movements of this enlightened
age. We have mauy men amongst us
whose example carries great weight,
who have used all their influence in fa
vor of extending every onnortunitv of
self-support to women, and in doing
so inty nave not only carried the grat
itude of the class so honorably assisted,
but have also conferred a very substan
tial benefit upon the whole communi

FINANCES AND TROUBLE.
In a news dispatch from Winston to
a Richmond paper, in relation to the
return of the two young females who
ran away from Winston and were re
cently brought back at a cost of some
three hundred dollars to their parents,
the writer says the girls cost their par
ents "a great deal of trouble besides."
No doubt of it. ' The patriarch Jacob
is not the only one whose childi en
have brounht down their cray hairs
with sorrow to the crave. These
young Winston girls were very foolish,
They would have been better off in a
very sorry home than they were run
nine away to a stranee portion of the
separate country. ' -
