Southern Items. Tennessee and Georgia are having an iron boom. Selma, Ala., receives over 1,000 bales of cotton daily. Gold is more plentiful than green-backs in Augusta, Ga. Retail whisky houses are taxed $10,000 each in Greensboro, Ga. A Chinaman has registered for the city election at Augusta, Ga. Four hundred Mormons have left Georgia and Alabama this year. The total indebtedness of the State of South Carolina is $7,175,454.91. Texas is larger than either the German Empire or the Austrian Empire. Mexicans are again raiding upon the stock ranches near San Antonio, Texas. One firm in Athens, Ga., is said to have made $80,000 by the recent rise in cotton. Montgomery and Mobile, Ala., two hundred miles apart, are connected by telephone. Gen. Grant will be invited to attend the centennial of Nashville, Tenn., which occurs next April. German carp is being extensively distributed in South Carolina by the Fish Commissioners of that State. The State authorities of Texas have sent out detectives to watch how the bell-punch is rung by the saloon-keepers. Thirty million cigars were made in Wheeling, W. Va., last year, and the number will be largely increased this year. Georgia's gold mines yield over $1,000,000 a year, and the work of getting out the "yellow boys" is increasing and expanding. California salmon are being extensively distributed in the streams of West Virginia by the Fish Commissioner of that State. The peanut crop of Virginia, Tennessee and North Carolina is estimated at about 1,350,000 bushels—an increase of about 500,000 bushels over last year. The new Constitution of Louisiana provides that the vote for Governor and Lieutenant-Governor shall be counted by the Legislature in joint session. East Tennessee marble is to be used Heating Cities by Steam. The success of the Holly system of water works in Burlington has caused some of our capitalists to look favorably on another scheme, that of the steam-heating system patented by the same inventor, and there is a strong probability of the organization of a company here to introduce the system in our city. The system has been successfully introduced in several cities, and is no longer an experiment, but has been known to be all that has been claimed by the inventor, and furnishes sufficient heat for houses at the minimum cost. The distance that the steam is taken from the boilers is much greater than one would suppose, as by many trials the inventor has at last reached the plan which gives the best results. The boilers for furnishing the steam are located in some central place, and from there the pipes extend in all directions through the streets. In order to retain the steam the pipes are covered with a wrapping of felt, and this also has another covering of asbestos. This is made just the size to fit into a wooden tube, which is laid in the trench with an outside covering of tanbark. The non-conducting properties of these materials allows the steam to be carried several miles without losing its heat-giving properties. Steam pipes are distributed throughout the houses, and an abundant supply of steam is furnished to heat all the rooms, and, if required, to do the cooking. The cost of it all is comparatively light, and the convenience, as well as the economy of the system is what will make it popular. In other cities where this method of heating is in operation the steam pipes are laid to the water hydraulics, where a steam hydrant is also placed. The patentee of the system has also made a fire engine that can be taken to this hydrant, and at the same place furnished with both steam and water. This, however, would only be necessary in those cities that have the reservoir system of water works, and would not be needed here. The plan for furnishing cities with the necessary heat at a small cost is an important one for the people to consider, and should a company be organized to introduce the system in Burlington we believe it would become popular with the people and would be financially beneficial to the company.—Hawkeye.

East Tennessee marble is to be used in the construction of the proposed monument to the memory of the late Gen. Robert E. Lee in the city of New Orleans. Col. E. Clayton, of Asheville, N.C., has a suit of clothes in which he was married in years ago, and which was made by Andrew Johnson, afterward President of the United States. A Mr. Stoddart, at Pensacola, Fla., has an orchard of 3,500 fig trees, many of which were imported from Europe, Asia and Africa. Almost every known variety is represented in this orchard. There are fifty-three cotton mills in operation in North Carolina, and the consumption for past year is estimated at 38,184 bales, or 17,297,800 pounds. According to the figures of the National Cotton Exchange, this was an increase of 16,644 bales over the previous year. Three large mills are now being erected with the prospect that others will be added within the next twelve months. The funeral of Basil M. Yates, at Chatham, N.C., the other day, was a very peculiar one, his own directions being observed minutely. The coffin was seven feet long, three feet wide and eighteen inches deep. In it were placed a feather bed and pillow, on which the corpse was laid, dressed in a neat suit of home-made jeans, with his boots placed at (not on) his feet, and his hat resting on his hands, which were crossed on his breast, and one of which held a pair of gloves. An immense crowd attended his burial, and a grand dinner was prepared. Meats of all kinds, in great abundance, were cooked, and all had plenty to eat. About Women. A lady dentist in Berlin has charge of the teeth of the children of the Crown Prince, and a number of lady physicians rank high in European circles. There are forty female physicians in practice in Philadelphia, ten artists and one sculptor—Miss Bianche Nevin, whom the State has lately selected to execute in marble the statue of Muhlenburg. Mrs. T. W. Higginson has written a capital story for children, called "Room for One More." The characters are everyday children, not the embryo saints that some writers let loose upon us. A man always looks foolish peering into a mirror. A woman never does. It is her unquestioned privilege to look at herself as often and as much as she will. Bless her, she sees something in the glass worth looking at.—Boston Webster's Diamond Necklace. The true story of the diamond necklace Daniel Webster gave to Mrs. Joseph Gales is said to be this: When Mr. Webster made his celebrated reply to Senator Hayne, of South Carolina, Mr. Gales, the senior editor of The National Intelligencer, undertook to report it, at the request of the orator, who assured Mr. G. that the speech would not be more than half an hour long. The editor was busy, but he thought he could spare time to take down and write out so short a speech. But as Mr. Webster was ascending the steps of the Capitol on the morning that he was to speak, he met Judge Story who told him it was a good opportunity to give his views upon the Constitution. Webster acted upon the suggestion, and instead of speaking for only half an hour, he spoke for three hours. Mr. Gales, under the spell of the orator, wrote on, perfectly unconscious of the lapse of time. But when he came to look over his notes he found they were so voluminous that he would never have time to traverse them. The speech not appearing in The Intelligencer in due time, Mr. Webster called upon the editor at his house, who told him that the speech was so long, and his time so much occupied, that he feared he could not find time to write it out for publication. While the orator was expostulating with the editor, and endeavoring to urge him to the work, Mrs. Gales appeared and said she thought she could write out the speech, as she had been in the habit of assisting her husband in transcribing his notes. She undertook the task, and in two days sent Mr. Webster his speech in full. A magnificent diamond necklace was the rich reward of the Massachusetts Senator. And thus was preserved to American literature the masterpiece of our greatest orator. Training of Farm Life. Rev. Washington Gladden, of Springfield, Mass., recently sent out a circular to one hundred permanent business men, asking about their homes during the first fifteen years of their lives. Seventy-four replied that they had received their training on a farm. Commenting on this fact, the Christian at Work says: There could not be a more hopeful indication of the prosperity of the country than an assurance that seventy-four out of eighty-eight boys in a community were training for farm life. It is a hard life, but it is an independent life; it is favorable to religious growth; and a cultivation of Christian patentee of the system has also made a fire engine that can be taken to this hydrant, and at the same place furnished with both steam and water.

Bless her, she sees something in the glass worth looking at.—[Boston Transcript]. Boston was probably the first city in the world where women engaged in the study of medicine, and at the medicine university there they now have a lady demonstrator in anatomy, also three other ladies in the faculty, one who lectures on diseases of women and the other on diseases of children. Miss Emma Abbott does not agree with those who believe that getting married spoils good singing. She says: "I will mention Jenny Lind, Malibran, Grisi, Viardot-Garcia, Catalani and Albuni, as examples. These women have all been queens of the domestic circle as well as of the lyric stage." A Southern girl, who has seen better days as a member of one of the first families of Virginia, is now earning her living by plying an awl at the shoe-maker's bench in Petersburg. She served an apprenticeship of four years, and it is said can now turn out as good shoes as any man in the business who has not had more experience. An extravagance into which women are going in many instances is in the direction of buttons. Many have buttons richly painted, and others have solid gold ones made. Many of these latter are decorated in colored enamels. Worth has introduced wooden buttons for heavy suits and cloth wraps. They are in walnut or lighter wood. Mrs. Mark Hopkins, the widow of the millionaire, was a poor teacher in New York and met her husband at her boarding house. She has no children, but adopted a poor boy when he was 7 years old. He is now 19, and shares all the elegance of his adopted mother, who is devotedly fond of him. She lives in great splendor. Her house in San Francisco cost $2,000,000.

Gloves. The wearing of gloves is traced as far back as the time of the Chaldeans, the word being explained in the Tal-mud Lexicon, as the clothing of the hand. Xenophon gives a clear and distinct account of gloves. Speaking of the manners of the Persians, as a proof of their effeminacy he observes, that not satisfied with covering their head and feet, they also guarded their hands against the cold with thick gloves. Athenaus speaks of a celebrated glutton who always came to the table with gloves on his hands, that he might be able to handle and eat the meat while hot, and devour more than the rest of the company. Homer, describing Laertes at work in his garden, represents him with gloves on his hands, to secure them from thorns. Varro, an ancient writer, is an evidence in favor of their antiquity among the Romans. In a hot climate the wearing of gloves implies a considerable degree of effeminacy. When the ancient severity of manners declined, the use of gloves prevailed among the Romans; but not without some opposition from the philosophers. Mussonius, a philosopher, lived at the close of Christianity, said, "It is shameful that persons in perfect health should clothe their hands and feet with soft and hairy coverings." In the beginning of the ninth century the use of gloves was so universal that even the church thought that a regulation in that part of the dress necessary. Gloves, besides their original design for a covering of the hand, have been employed on several great and solemn occasions; as in the ceremony of investiture, in bestowing lands, or in conferring dignities. As the delivery of gloves was once a part of the ceremony used in giving possession, so the depriving a person of them was a mark of divesting him of his office, and of degradation. The Earl of Carlisle, in the reign of Edward II. was condemned to die as a traitor. Walsingham, relating other circumstances of his degradation, says: "His spurs were cut off with a hatchet, and his gloves and shoes were taken off." Another use of gloves was in a duel; he who threw one down was by this act understood to give defiance, and he who took it up to accept the challenge. The ceremony is still practiced of challenging by a glove at the coronation of the Kings of England, by his Majesty's champion entering Westminster Hall The Receipt For Gilt-Edge Butter Maker was obtained from one of the most extensive dairy farmers of Ireland, noted for the excellent and superior keeping qualities of his butter, which was eagerly purchased by London dealers for export to India, where the warm climate puts butter to a very severe test. It has been thoroughly tried by a large number of the very best butter-makers in this country, and they have given it their emphatic approval. Price 25 cents per package. Sold by all store-keepers. COLLINR, N. Y., Feb 1924, 1878. Gentlemen: We churned one gallon of cream to day at a temperature of 36 degrees using your Gilt-Edge Butter Maker.

Walsingham, relating other circumstances of his degradation, says: "His spurs were out off with a hatchet, and his gloves and shoes were taken off." Another use of gloves was in a duel; he who threw one down was by this act understood to give defiance, and he who took it up to accept the challenge. The ceremony is still practiced of challenging by a glove at the coronation of the Kings of England, by his Majesty's champion entering Westminster Hall completely armed and mounted. Challenging by the glove is still in use in some parts of the world. In Germany, on receiving an affront, to send a glove to the offending party is a challenge to a duel. We meet with the term glove-money, which is meant money given to servants to buy gloves. This is probably the origin of the phrase, "giving a pair of gloves." In the middle ages, the giving a glove was a ceremony of investiture, and two bishops were put in possession of their sees by each receiving a glove. 1002. Embroidered gloves were introduced into England in 1580, and are still presented to judges at maiden assizes. How It Is Done in Sweden. Many towns in Sweden take the liquor business practically in their own hands. In Gothenborg, for instance, the local government controls the sale of liquors, both wholesale and retail. When a man applies for a license he knows that he must give to the government all the profit over six per cent., which percentage is paid to the dealer as recompense for his time and interest on the capital invested. The wholesale trade is in the hands of one company, who sell liquor only to those establishments approved by the government. As a consequence of the small profit in the business, the number of applications for licenses are comparatively few. In Gothenburg, which is a city of 70,000 inhabitants, there are only thirty-seven licenses issued. Liquors are sold at so low a margin that it does not pay illicit dealers to compete with the regular establishments. This method secures a handsome revenue to the local government, which is expended in the support of the public schools, and also in the laying out of public gardens and parks to beautify the city.—Detroit Press.

SHOCKED INTO TALKING.—Mrs. Geo. Martin of Huntsville, Ga., had been so paralyzed that for a year she did not speak. The restoration was as follows: While brushing the table the other day, she struck a loaded revolver lying thereon in such a way as to discharge the weapon, the ball taking effect above the left knee of her paralyzed leg. An ugly wound was produced, but, strange to say, the woman at once began to talk, and since the accident has been able to do so.

San Jose, September 24, 1879, To the Standard Soap Co.—Gentlemen: It affords me pleasure to say to the public that I have used and prescribed your PHOSPHATE SOAP as a remedy in various forms of cutaneous diseases with the happiest results.

Decker said to a lady of the heart ton To the Standard Soap Company—Gentlemen: It affords me pleasure to say to the public that I have used and prescribed your PHOSPHATE SOAP as a remedy in various forms of cutaneous diseases with the happiest results. I am of the opinion that it is the mildest and most perfect detergent that can be used, either for cleansing the skin and leaving it soft and healthy, or for removing the fetor and corroding influences of sores and ulcerations. I should be sorry to be without in shaving my face or making my toilet, to say nothing of my good opinion of its remedial qualities. A.J. SPENCER, M.D. Gentlemen: I received a package of your soap (Phosphate Soap) and it gives me great pleasure to testify as to its superior excellence. As a toilet soap I have never seen anything to surpass it. It also possesses superior remedial qualities. I have used it in two cases of obstinate skin disease, one of intolerable itching, Pruritus, the other an Eosema. In both great relief was obtained. Its emollient properties are remarkable. Respectfully, W.A. DOUGLASS, M.D. 126 O'Farrell St. To the Standard Soap Company. SAN FRANCISCO, July 27, 1879. Standard Soap Co.—Gents: I have tried your PHOSPHATE SOAP, and have no hesitation in saying that it is the best toilet soap ever used. My wife has used it and is of the same opinion. I have paid as high as fifty cents per cake for an article in every respect inferior to what you sell for twenty-five cents. HENRY H. LYNCH, 515 Haight street. The genuine merits of PHOSPHATE SOAP and persistent advertising will force every druggist, groceryman and general dealer to order it by the gross sooner or later. Ask for it in every store.
