If I were you, in moments of reflection.
Though critiscism may be fair and true,
I'd not go in too much for vivisection,
If I were you.
i would not take the flowers of life and
tear them
Apart, their inner secrets all to view,
I'd pluck them gently, reverently wear
them.
If I were you.
I'd leave some gossamer of tender fancies
In life's wide meadow, gemmed along
with dew,
Nor sweep them all before stern Fact's
advances.
If I were you.
If I were you I'd leave some twilight
hours"
'Twixt glaring daylight and the night's
black hue,
Some natural-tinted scenes some shady
bowers,
If I were you.
I would not let the oil of toleration
The sameness of one general "width of
view"
Subdue the free wave's motion to stagna-
tion,
If I were you.
I'd not laugh down enthusiasm's fire
As antique and higlraowu I'd leave

Sparks of a nobl1 rage, a generous ire,

And oh! amid the rush for wealth or

tion that all the manufacturing and
mining enterprises of the South are
the direct and exclusive fruits of the
white man's deliverance from the de
bilitating and benumbing influence of
slavery. This is entirely gratuitous, as
there is no shadow of proof that the
South, left undisturbed for tne last
quarter of a century, would not have
brought all those, and various other
interests, to a higher plane of devel
opment than they now occupy.
The "cotton seed oil mill" is em
phasized as one of the specific results
of the liberated energies of the New
South. Admit, for the sake of argu
ment only, that the oil mill is the pe
culiar product ot the free South is
the lact beyond question that its pres
ence among us is an unalloyed bless
ing? Before the evolutionary forces
of the "unfettered" Southern mind
culminated in this "survival of the fit
test." the cotton planters returned

where mechanical invention, is progres
sively increasing the congestion of
wealth and stimulating luxurious liv
ing among the rich, while it alarm
ingly swells the ranks of the hungry
laborer, socialist and the pauper?
Take Massachusetts, the "hub" of free
schools, free labor and boasted intelli
gence, as a fair representative. The
average expenses of laboring men, who
are the heads of families, in Massachu
setts, amount to $754.42 while their
earnings average $558.68. . In other
words, the working man falls short of
a support tor his ' family, 195. 74, or
32 per cent. How is this supplement
ed ? It is wrung from the toil of the
mother and children, no't through the
discharge of the Ordinary domestic
duties of woman's sphere, but in the
wages mill. One-third of the meagre
support must be eked out by mother
and tender children in order to keep
the wolf and the sheriff from the door.

the Northern "division we have ever
found a sleepless, restless, ceaseless
struggle for sectional, local and indi
vidual supremacy, marked at every step
by the fierce conflict between the vic
tims ot want and the despotism of
capital a stern and native practicality
born of indigenous necessity ; while
along the parallels of the "Old South"
has rolled the deep majestic tide of
national thought, national sentiment
and national action.
The South has been the land of
" enterprises of great pith and mo
ment," rather than the nursery of scrib:
biers. She has made history tor others
to write and sell. She has carved with
the sword the pathway of the pen and
made America the stronghold ot the
Anglo-Saxon race. The first resolu
tions declaring the right of the colo
nies to be " free and independent "
were introduced into a Southern Leg
islature by a Southern man. The first
resolutions to the same effect were pre
sented in the Colonial Congress by
another Southern man and took form
and consistence, in the Declaration of
Independence, under the matchless
genius of still another Southern man.
A Southern man led the patriot armies
''.Ctory anc established the possi
bilities of the'prbliaesr Ration on the
earth. A Southern man was pnrne

Under these same " slothful and de
moralizing" auspices of slavery, the
great Indian wars were fought, their
magnificent country opened to white
settlement, the savages removed and
measures adopted for their civilization.
Florida was acquired from Spain, and
from France that vast domain, the
Louisiana Territory, comprising more
than one million square miles, greater
in extent and richer in resources than
the whole territory of the then exist
ing United States, and giving us the
sole ownership of the Mississippi river
from its source to the Gulf. This one
achievement, conceived and accom
plished by a Southern President,
through the supreme skill and courage
of a Southern diplomatist, overshadows
in its stupendous proportions, out
weighs in the vastness of its results,
every national measure presented by
Northern statesmanship and secured by
Northern enterprise since the landing
at Plymouth Rock. It was this far
reaching stroke of Southern diplomacy
which elicited from the great Napoleon
the prophetic remark, that " the acqui

assertion, that five counties in Missis
sippi, in i860, could have furnished
more fine blooded saddle, harness and
draught horses than can now be found
in the entire State. One Southern
State could- then have shown more
fine hogs than now exist in the entire
cotton belt. While a very few farms
in the South are now stocked with
small herds of fine cattle, yet, under
the old system, thousands of planters
had supplied themselves with superior
cattle for their own use, that aggre

money were constantly combining"
to build up and preserve, in the Old
South, the finest society in the world,
to the exclusion of those twin evils, the
millionaifs and the tramp. The fine
moral and intellectual organization of
Southern children has, heretofore, been
largely due to the fact that their moth
ers were exempt trom the hardships
of physical drudgery and the depress
ing effects of impending want. The
poorest man in the South supported
his family with comparative ease, be
cause of the gently rising gradations
in society and the universal liberality
of the stronger toward the weaker.
