It is fair to presume that a few of the yonng sonthr6ns act from an hon est conviction that they can better their condition bv coming north; but in a majority of instances tbe probabil ity is.that they act without proper re flection and desiro to live in this city simply to see and be seen to- frolic and have fun. Let me give them a word of warning and advice. New York is not n place for running j around loose. It is not a city for en- iovment and ease. Horrt, hard work, constant work, is the word in the great metropolis. Of all the cities in tbe United States, it is the poorest for simple minded, do nothing salesmen. I A young man here finds his level quicker than water. It may create some surprise among those who, after many perplexing flares to obtain situations, cling to tne idea of coming, to be informed that New York is not only filled to repletion with Southern salesman, nut that hardly one in fifty pf those "Who sncceed in securing places tuake more than a scanty support- .Xc,.och is, tho-. fact.

It is like over loading the. life boat the sorgo is coming and all will go down together. Soimd. judgment dictates that this state of things should cease. The er ror is manifold and egregions. It de prives the South' -of men who should be engaged in developing her vast re sources, who should be planting cot ton and corn and raising meat.- It is full of anxiety, disappointment: and final disgust, and it works harm and damage to those who, after hard strug gles, have built up a trade that scarce ly does more than support them, their wives and children. " To snch as are meditating this grave mistake the writer (who has some ex perience in such matters) would offer a kindly word of advice: for the sake of your state, for your own sakes, stay at home. This advice is cheap, it costs yon nothing, but if yon do not heed it, your unwise refusal will cost you much loss of time and abundact vexa tion of spirit. Salesman. !
