The grand jury in Savannah, Cia., has found that twenty-one prisoners in the couuty ohain gaug are suffer? ing from exposure. 'Thoy were oorupelled to break ice in the caual without 6hoes or stookings on their feet and wearing only a pair of pants. Sevoral of them are per? manently disabled. Acoordiug to tho report of a Chi oaso society, there are G0.000 people in that city who ore oontirmed vic? tims ot opium. It does not 6ay how many of these take tho drug because they want to forget that they have to live in Chicago. ?IS HO.-U1-: LIFE WOMAN'S 1,1111 rv Terhops never before in tho World's history have tho relations of woman towards the world been so tnuob discussed as at tho present time, Mrs. Elizabeth A. Adams, writing on tho subject in tho Globe Quarterly Review, asks tho question ??Is Home Lifo Woman's Limit'/" t\nd without going into details it may be answered in tho ucgattvo. Iu this advanced stage of the world there is no limit to womau'a useful? ness, aud as tune goes on her uphuro Will be enlarged. To bo sure there was a time when womau's sphere was almost entirely cou?ned to the home cirole, and in truth it may be said that in no posi? tion in lifo is she more beautiful, It is not ineaut to say by this, how? ever, that in uo other position other than that of domesticity is she at? tractive, for nndor all ciroumstaoces a good woman deserves the bomago of man, and she has it too to tho highest degree, But the world move 4, The tieldr- of Ecienoo and literature have been enlarged,and have opeued up to women avenues of usefulness heretofore not dreamed of as among their possibilities. They aro to-day counted by thousands in the ranks of both, an 1 nro its ornaments. Ju literature and in medical science they have been exceptionally suc? cessful. In the various branches of industrial lifo they are also found, and in no particular cau it be said that thoy have not rell eoted credit upon themse v?b. In this day of advanced thought and aotio'j there should be no bar to the enlargement of womau's sphere of usefulness. Whatever she may find her bauds and brain equal to, either for herself or mankind, give her Q d' - spee I, BOTH S A tie IC I US AND t Ol.O N I KS. Not only are the factories of tho North moving Southward, says an exchange, but colonies are forming to settle the waste places, which,dis? figure the fiir face of the South. A colony has recent y purcascd iu oue of tb i eastern counties of North Carolin i 25,000 acres of land, which it will improve and make to blossom us the rose, The county whioh has been selected is one that has within its borders as fertile land a9 any on the American continent. It is said that where these peoplo will settle is the borne of the RouppernoDg grape, the most luscious and finest wine|producer of any native grape. It will produce any grape crop that can be grown in the temperate zone, Besides, the climate is most equa? ble, and eituated as it ib, near the talt water, the miusmatio influences that so often throw their baloful thadow over a rioh soil are diepelled. There are hundreds of thousand of acres of such lunds now in all por? tions of tho South, as it says, whioh aro praoticaliy overgrown wastes, waiting or the baud ol man to prest them into form. They will reward with their richest treasures, and that, too, without limit. The West eanno oiler one titho of tho promise of the South. This is right, ami there is room for all. Let both tho factories and colonies come. Whethei they select "the Old North State" as tho place of their future opera tions, or elsewhere in tho South, the results will bo the same. There it no place on the habitable globe where better returns can be had foi the labor and capital invested than in tfte Southern country, and Vir gifiia i* "tho garden spot" ot it all ?*r.%I,K Vi? VOI1II IOW'.J.'?i This is tho advioo tho Jacksonville Tinies-Uuiou gives its rollers iu that city, uud it may be added that it is good advise to follow, it mat? ters not whore, wbeu, or by whom giveu. Tho vory best advertisement a towu or oity can receive, says our contemporary, is tho euthusiaBtio praiso of thoso who form its popula? tion. Always bo roadv to say a good word for it, aud instead of horalding any drawbacks or defects whioh may exist, go to work to dovise and apply a remedy so that thoy will no longer he there to bo talked about. Every good citizen will grasp all opportuuities to advertise the ad? vantages and attractions of the com? munity iu which bo lives, fully real? izing that the common interests is nccossarily his own. If people would follow this advise strictly, there is no calculating tho good which might como from iU Ian EVKMIltfl tt 1.1 ill t?f?E OF BIN utsrv on i hi: it in me:. by H. u. WIIARTOX, V. D.
