welfare of the Mississippi Delta, and
think that every man in Mississippi
should he. It lain fact the Egypt of
America, the pride and boast of our

and luxuriant range for all kinds of

face of the earth. There are no la:ids
which respond to muscle so cheerfully
and so liberally a do these of the Delta.
I am reliably informed that not more

Why 'do the, English ladies posses

to endure Ipng walks',' They are not
afraid to go in the, open air and engage
in various occupations and sports which
most, ladies in good circumstances m
this country ate inclined to avoid as too
iresame and uupleasnnt.
U , we realized ttuit a sensible man,
when selecting a young lady for a wife,
does not want an mwuuk we reel sure we
should value tho means to be emiiloved
in gaining physical health and strength
far more titan is at present the ease.
All this, we say, can be done without
neglecting that mental culture, also, so
much prized by the more sensible class
of the sterner sex.
Indeed, these physical exercises may
be so chosen and practiced, many of
them as to serve to beautify and adorn
our homes, as well as to contribute to
the health of the mind; and in that way
greatly aid in obtaining an excellent edu
cation. Those countries and governments,
other things being equal, are most pros
perous in which the female, as well us
the mule sex perform those physical
tun menial duties tor wiucn thev were
each evidently bv nature designed. We
see evidences of this greater prosperity
in all those lamilics whero the females
lend a helping hand in such service as
thev arc capable to petorm.

liitlessnesi should be indulged, when as
a natural consequence, health will suffer.

We heard Brother Holmes, of Savan
nab, (Ja., tell a good joke on a Richmond
hotel man. He said that, when Dr.
Trice, of Wales, was attending our June
meetings, some years ago, he stopped at
l ord s Hotel, and when he asked for big
bill, Ford said: "We knock off half the
price, as you are a minister." Dr. Price
thanked hint, and asked. .'What do vou
tako off for editors?" "One-half for edi
tors, too," was the prompt reply.
"Well," continued tho Doctor, "I am
editor as well as preacher: so I am en
titled to two halves, and thus my ac
count is settled." The hotel "man
laughed and let it go so.

Detroit (Mich.) News.
Several years ago Miss Cynthia E.
Cleveland was a meek and efficient dress
maker at Pontine. Then her soul was
fired in the temperance cause and she
became one the most efficient gospel tem
perance workers in Michigan, and as
such was favorably known throughout
the entire State. 'Two or three years
ago she went to Dakota, where she like
wise became famed in the anti-beer and
anti-whisky cause, becoming President
of the State Woman's Christian Tem
perance Union, if, indeed, she was not
its originator. Less than a vear ago she
was admitted to the Bar, being the first
lady to enjoy that high distinction in
Dakota. A short time ago she had her
first case in court, and, stranger than
fiction, it was in defense of a woman on
trial for selling liquor withouta license,
and she won her case.

The impression which prevailed a

mans. During tne nrsi rnreo niuuuu,
ending March 31, the total number of
immisrrants landed at Gastle Garden
was 49,652, against 68,685 in the corres

irrstitn for April footed up 53,853
against 69,700 for the same period last
vear, or an increase of 4,231 over the
total of the three months previous, and
a falling off of 15,847 as compared with
Anril. 1882. The total from January 1
to Mav 1 was 103,535, or a decrease of
34,850 as compared with the first four
months of 18S2. (since May i, however,
there has been a sudden and marked
increase, the total for the first ten day
being 22,8?6, or only 476 less than for
the first ten days in Slav. 1882. The im
migration for the month bids fair to ex
ceed that of MaV last vear, which was
88.868.
The class of immigrants arriving now
is unlike that of former years, the larger
number being young, unmarried, robust,
able-bodied and healthy young people.
They are generally better clad, but have
less money. Comparatively, there have
been few of the Irish immigrant s w ho

greater bulk of the assisted have beei

Cheeper by the lines tO that port than to
New York. The homeless Irish people
arc landed there each with $0 in his
jweket, and thev are expected to start
anew in life frdni that point and earn at
least their food and clothes. While the
Scandinavian immigration has not
reached its maximum, the Swedes, Nor
wegians and Danes a-e coming over in
large numbers by every steamer, no less
than 500 arriving on a single vessel on
Wednesday. All of the ships are well
laden with English, Scotch, Irish, Welsh,
Scandinavians, Germans, Dutch, French
and Italians, the immigration of tlte lat
