' After to-day it will not be necessary to pay fi balf dollar to enter the gates or tbe ' great Cotton Expositipn. They will stand open arid any curious ' person who wishes to view the remains can walk in. w ithont spoil tng , himself of his wealth. Mouday, will witness another sight, the dismaotliflg:the great' show. 1 1t is hard to, imagine the buildings empty, silent and jlliie less. The ceaseless whirr of macbi n erv; has been the life of themjF and when the fires die down they will be cold for manv a day. It is all over. It has demonstrated much and it will serve for a date-mark at least to the, half million of people who have seen it in some of its forms. ? J It ba taught every section, every State, every community, every indi vidual something. North Carolina ? What has it taught Thisr.is whatl spe- ciaily interests your readers. Ilf it has taught her what she really is, it has taught her the best lesson that she could learn. - A lack ; ot ptoper appreciation hf oor State an her people has caused others to underrate them, and is the cause of a wapt of State pride. If it has helped t sup ply this want the value of the Sxpo. sition in improving our geneiai tone caipnot be estimated, luis is us moral value. It has enlightened pur people by showing them in contrast and comparison what other States have and how they have utilised their professions. This is value. The exhibition the suggestive of thc same kinds of products that our State has, subjected to a variety of treatments and worked up into different ; forms, will Stimulate capital and eneip with us to like undertakings. Thiaj is its imitative value. The equal rank that our manufactures maintained in the iudustrial contest will teach consumi ers the valuable fact that something good can be bdme-made, and that they can go further and faref worse. Tbis is one of its economic values. It has others, amongst them the posi tive knowledge, that our , people have acquired and the use they will make of it. Of its inestimable value os a healer of all sectional animosities I will not speak. Politicians say it will enect ft.io , it. triflv. it it aoes it win VM" 4 - w J disappoint politicians, as require new issues and new it will houghts, to the and these are strange things professional politic'an. 1 ve heard no politics talked here.

GEORGIA AND NOKTH CAROLINA. i il I need not refer to the nfttui ai r tie between North Carolina and Georgia, One cannot go amiss for North Caio. hnians here, or for people f. whose immediate generations weie born in our State. Every North Carolina soIdVer lecogn'zes the tie at once. It is well then that North CaioMna came to Georgia in Iwr representative ca pacity. She was not represented by private enterprise only, but officially by the direction of her Cbief Magis trate through the Department of Ag i ion lture, the natural patron of sach an exposllios?, and inthe peson of toe head of that departmeat, the Commissioner of Agricoltu e. . the, proper envoy for such a mission. It is a matter of regtet. that no other State was so representedbut that is not our affair. THE EFFECT. . The interest that the exhibition of the State'd resources will arouse amongst moneyed j men who have muscle and a will to work remains to be seen. It is easy to say in a gem erul way that it will be great, but I am aiming at giving you facts that will be valuable. One can hear of many prospectors in all parts of the State, but that class seldom hurries and is always cautious. We will see what we will see. If they do not come it will not be because, they bae not been piped unto. IMMIGRATION. If the lesson taught to people of other States" who visited the exuosi. tion is North Carolina, it will make greatly for the State, because immi gration is what is needed. It in nec esaarv for our material advancement and to hold our own politically. Both are important. North Carolina has less than four thousand : foriegn oorn lnnaouants. - mis is not one fourth of one per cent., - and -would not enter, into anv problem relating to its population ; it is so fractional. It doe not influence oir modes of thought or life. A good influx .of young and new blood would doubtless improve us, because we have yet got lo be a perfect community. A few of the manv thousands who are migrating: yearly could find a lodgment "with us whenever they came that would sat isfy them and be advantagaous to us. The resources of the State have been set forth and sent forth by our papers for a long while, but1 many feared that printers' ink magnifies and would no't believe. Now we have given these doubting Thomases a substan tial and terriblei proof will they still disbelieve? If a thousand people are brought into the State by our ex. position at Atlanta, the State will be reimbursed for its expenditures a hun dred fold. - P. M. W. A FAIR SnEPDERDESS. , Sea Fra .'cl. po Erp . . A reporter learned from ;Mr. Holt the pa ticulai s of a history that prop erly handled would make the web and woof of as i romantic a novel as wa3 ever written.

One evening as, she was walk ing towards the house in her simple country dress a party of gentlemen rodeup'and one of them was her fa ther, who bad been scarehrngfor his daughter since her departure from Paris.' Calm reflection had satisfied him that hers was the better choice, and he was only too glad to recognize in her hnsbaad a son-in-law. He persuaded them (to give up their home in Texas for a time and return with him to Philadelphia. JUST THE GIRL Halifax Chronicle. .

He managed, by not paying his washerwoman and tailor, to take her to operas and "'theatres,' but as the times were eet tin z bard he coni- eluded to marry her a nd save the ex ' pense of boarding. By some process ; of mental arithraetie known to the geniuH, he discovered with great difficulty that what was not cnoua. for one was enough for two, and forthwith decided to pop.
