Eoxtob News : I have iust had an interview with Mr. 'Maxwell, fourth Assistant Postmaster General and he adheres to the rule established some time since, towit: To remove no Fourth Class Postmaster except for cause or upon chargas pieferred. To this rule there has been and will be no exception. Congressional influence amounts to nothing whatever towards modifying or suiperiding it, all reports to the contrary notwithstanding. There has not been a single exception to it in our State, if Mr. Max well is to le believed. I can do nothing more than to call upon the Democaatic Executive Com mittees and Democrats generally of the various counties to prefer chaigas against those who are obnoxious and whom they may wish to replace with Democrats.

The article of most timely in terest in the June number of The Southern State magazine is a. critical paper on" Jefferson Davis and His Cause," by James R. Ran dall, the author of "My Mary land," who views the events in the life of the late leader of the Confederacy in a dispassionate manner, but with the sentinents of an ardent Southerner. With the recent reburial ceremonies still so fresh in the public mind, this review of the strength and weakness of Jefferson Davis is of much current interest. The open ing article in the magazine is a concise' statement of the chief characteristics of the State of Georgia, by Hon. W. J. Northen, governor of that State. Govern or Northen is a terse, forceful writer, and he tells manv interest ing and striking facts about his State. "The Women's College of lialtimore," by l?rank Roscoe Butler, is a beautifully illustrat ed article about one of the young est and yet one ot the most rapid ly progressing women's colleges in this country. Its beautiful a a a m . - buildings, its broad plans and liberal spirit, its carefully studied methods have brought this insti tution into great prominence in a surprisingly short time. J. Ste phen Jeans, the well known sta- ..ft -a. tistician and writer on economic subjects contributes a British view of "Soutbern Progross and Pros- a a m m - pects' in which he analyses the statistics of Southern progress and points out Ibe inevitable fu ture supremacy of the South in certain great industrial lines. The first of a series of camera trips through the South by H. S. Fleming presents charming views of a few of the picturesque ele ments oi the country lying along w aiaen s udge in Tennessee.

Gr&ftv Wr. ing the title "Picturesque Virgin. la rorty xears After Porte Crayon." Fragments of Porte Crayon's article and suggestions aDout the Virginia of today are woven into an interesting article which ia embellished with repro ductions ot some of rorte Urayonl sketches and modern engravings from recent photographs. Ed ward Atkinson presents some novel but interesting agricultural suggestions under the caption i ne sa eea oi ueans in the South." Wm. F. Wise, a successful Vir ginia truck farmer, tells of the great trncicmg industry of tide water V lrginia. The il natrationa in this issue of the Southern States are of a high order of excellence and torm a striking feature of the magaizne.
