The Condition of llic South.
General Toebtnan, of North Carolina, a
native of Portland, but long a resilient of the
Soutb, delivered an interesting address be
fore the New York Fruit-growers' Club some
days since. He said that the exports of the
South are larger than those of the North,
and West combined; this was so before the
war, and is now. The war has impoverished
the people, but has not changed tho climate
nor destroyed the fertility of the coil. He
would read from the report for 1867 of the
Statistical Uurcnu at Washington, that tho
population of the Southern States for that
year was 9, 508,70!), while there exports were
$328,406,757. The populatiou of t.ll the
other States in the same year was 24,916,765,
and their exports 8243,202,243; heuce,
while the Southern States had but twenty-
eight per ccut. of the entire population, they
furnish sixty-nine per cent, of the total value
of exports, or $34 32 cents per head; while
the pro rata share iu tho other Southern
States is but $25. 75. This is not accidental or
an isolated instance. The same diflbreneffhns
been maintained since the beginning of the
Government. Before the war, iu 1860, ac
cording to the United States census taken in
that year, the population of tho Southern
States was 10,259,007;of all the other Stutes,
21,155,963. The average amount of corn
raised per head in the South was 53 2-100
bushels; in tho Northern uud Western States
only 19 bushels.
After the war, in the year 1866, the popu
lation of the South had decreased to 9,560,
709; und yet, while onp half of their newly-
niado "fullow-citizeus of African descent,"
refused to work,expectiugeach the gift of land
and mules from the Federal Government, tho
average yield of corn for each inhabitant,
white and black, of the South, was thirty-
three and one half bushels. The poplation of
the Northern States iu the same year was 24,
916,767, and tho average yield of corn for
each, twenty-four bushels. These figures are
bused upon the census of 1860 and upon the
reports of the Statistical Bureau at Wash
iugton. This cun be attributed to no other
cause than tho geniality of climate and great
er productiveness of tho soil. Soma may con
sider this view wrong, and reply that tho
larger surplus iu the South results from the
fact that the consumption is less, and that
the farmers of other States consume more of
their products. This is truo, but it only
proves what he' would demonstrate. Tho
Northern farmer consumes only during the
ona hundred days of winter, and produces
nothing, while during the same time even the
Southern farmers produces more than he con
sumes. And this is one of the additional rea
sons why lubor is better remunerated in the
South.
On the 13th iust., in the United States
Court at liichmond, Virginia, iu the pro
ceedings against the former United States
Marshal of that district who, in 1861, trans
ferred an amount of government funds to
the Confederate authorities, the defendant
plead the United States Statute of Limita
tion, the plea was admitted by Chief Jtfttice
Chase, aud the United States non-suited.
If this is to stand as the ruling of the judici
ary, of course all suits against delinquent
Southern postmaster and collectors will be
at once abandoned, as they can plead the
same defense. We have not seen Judge
Chase's reasons for this decision, but iu the
absence of any explanatory facts it much re
sembles a violation of that principle of law
which declares that no man shall profit by
Lis own 'wroug. An absconding debtor, no
matter how long be may remain absent, cau
not on his returu plead the Statue of Limi
tations as a discharge of bis liabilities. How
then cau government officials, who steal
goverumont funds and then join in a rebellion
which, by its long continuance and wide ex
tent, prevents their prosecution for several
years, plead the Statute of Limitation, on
the returu of peacb aud thus escape punish
ment? Now that the Spraguo Party have been 80
badly beaten in the Frovidonce election,
there is to be an attempt to induce the Legis
lature to pass a resolution inviting him to
resign his seat iu the Senate. The Anti
Sprague Party are determined to assume the
offensive in the most offensive manner; and,
unless the Senator hasten back and apologize
to Captain Goddard and General Burnsido
as well as to Senator Anthony the firm of
Brown & Ives, tbe First Rhode Island Regi
ment the Providence Journal and Major
Clarke, it will certainly go hard with him.
A Professorship of American History is
to be established at the University of Heidle
berg, Germany, and a distinguished Ameri
can scholar offered the chair. It would be
well if England and France would immedi
ately found similar professorships. A little
knowledge of American history would have
saved them both a costly blunder during the
Jate war.
Since the tax on whisky was reduced to
fifty cents per gallon the average receipts
from that source have averaged fully one
hundred per cent, more than they were un
der the two dollar tax. This ought to bo
conclusive evidence that the chango was a
wiso one. The utter failure to collect a
sixth part of the two dollar tax proved this,
that there is a point beyond which the in
tegrity of average men cannot bo safely
tempted, and revenue laws must recoguizo
this principle or prove abortive.
Tub Viroinia F.i.kotion. The Virginia
election has at last been fixed for the 6th of
July. The day has been put off so late that
tho harvest may bo gathered before political
excitement becomes too high to interfere
with tho necessary work. The result con
hardly be doubted. The Constitution will bo
adopted, negro suffrage and all. Several
clauses relating to dipfi-ancaioement, test
oath, nud officers, will bo voted on separate
ly. Theso may be rejected.
Rnrum.K:AN Administration. Tho do

at least seven millions! Meanwhile our In

Railroad expenses are substantially ended,

Our new Minister in Paris, Mr. Wash
buruo, presented his credentials to the Em
peror on Saturday. Both Minister and Em
peror dwelt as usual on tho traditional friend
ship of the two countries, which, according
to the Emperor, has now uninterruptedly ex
isted for a hundred years. The Emperor al
together iguored his diplomatic conflict with
our Government concerning Mexico, which,
at tho time, was not commonly regarded as a
sign of close-sympathy and amicable feeling.
A Charleston paper states that a citizen

The Revolution iu Cuba.
Havana, May 12, via Key West, May 13.
Private letters have been received from
rebel sources, giving accounts of another
battle between the Spanish troops and in
surgents, It took place on May 3, at Las
Miras. The Spaniards numbered 1,200, and
were under commond of Lesca.
The two first assaults wero repulsed by the
Cubans. Tho third was very determined,
and tho Cubans begnn to retreat, when
Quesada ordered his rear guard to the front
They advanced, driving the Cubans into tho
front rauks of tho enemy. A band to band
combat ensued, iu which tho butchery was
horrible.
The Spaniards finally pave way aud retreat
ed, but iu good order. Their I053 is estimat
ed at 100 killed and 300 wounded; that of
the Cubans 200 killed and a proportionate
number of wounded. After tho fight the
rebels marched to San Miguel and burned
tho town, iu tho sight of the retreuting Span
iards. It is generally believed the revolutionary
leaders have changed their policy in the Geld,
and in the future will fight, instead of re
treating to the mountains on the appearance
ot government troops. Iu the battle at Alta
Gracia, which took place on the 1st instant,
the Cuban loss was 200, and that of the
Spaniards 180 killed aud wounded.
The Spaniurds here regard the result of
these actions as fatal to tho rebellion, but
the Cubaus are jubilant over them as the
first great successes of the war for indepen
dence. A thoughtful Wife, Erie occasion
ally does things brown, but from the fol
lowing we should judge she does them also
in other colors : A plump, red-faced loud
talking woman, evidently from the rural
districts, stepped into a dry goods store not
long ago and asked to see some mournin'
stuff. The polite clerk handed down some
rolls of different varieties, fashionable for
such uses, and, thinking to expediate a sale
if he understood tbe consanguity for which
the mourning was to be donned, inquired
of her in what manner the deceased was
related to her ? This question was too
vague for her comprehension, and was
replied to with an ictcrrogative stare.
The clerk bridged the difficulty with the
brief question. " Who's dead ? " " Why,"
she replied, " fact is, their ain't nobody
dead as 1 knows on, but the doctor says my
old man (husband) can't live more nor a
week or so at furthest, an' been' 'twas mar.
ket day, and I was in town, I thought I'd
better bo gcttiu' the funeral fixings and
mrke 'em up, 'cause it's a real bother to
get 'em made when there's dead folks in
the house, on' I hate to borrow."
Tiie Fruit Crop. The official annual
estimate of the freight agents along the

the following Btat isties : Peach trees four
years old and over, 2,009,500, yielding
1,209,180 baskets of pcecbes. Strawber
ries, acres cultivated, 410 ; yielding
1,018,740 quarts. Blackberries; acres
58 J yielding 74,5000 quarts. Raspber
ries, acres 35, yielding 21,000 quarts, or a
total of 540 acres planted with berries,
1,1 14 ,250 quarts This estimate does not
include the large crop of wild berries
picked by the poorer classes, and yielding
a handsome return. ' The peach trees three
years old and under are 885,240 in num.
ler, and with tbe 1,099,500 trees four
years old and over, make a total of 1,894,
830 peach trees along the line of 'he Dcla
wars railroad.
The First Recorded Burial
The first mention, in the Hebrew
Scriptures of a burial, is that of Sarah
the wife of Abraham. Of each of the
prtrarchs, with one exception, whose names
are recorded in the 6th of Genesis, it is
briefly said, " nnd he died." It is not
added, " and was buried." From the
death of Abel, the first to die, to that of
Sarah, a period of two thousand years, in
no instance are we told what disposition
was made of the mortal remains. " All
the days that Adam lived were nine hun
dred and thirty years ; and he died."
What was tho " order for the burial of
the dead " at the funeral of the first man ?
and whero did they lay his body ?
The Gist burial place described in the
sacred records is the cuvo which was se
lected as the burial place of Sarah. Of
(his sepulchre we have, in the book of
Genesis, a history of affecting biiuplicity
and beauty. While Abraham was a
stranger, and a sojourner at Hebron, his
wifo died, and he was obliged to seek for
her a burial place. The people of the land
honored him as a mighty prince among
them, and offered bira his choice of their
sepulchcrs. He mu?t have appreciated
the kindness of tho offer, but ho naturally
preferreJ a family burial place of his own
and he bad set his heart on a cave in the
field of Macphelah, which seemed fitted
(or the sad purpose. Tho field and cave
therein belonged to Ephron, the Hittite.
b or some reason, which does not appear,
Abraham did not nrst apply, to this man
for the purchaso of tho cave, but he asked
his friends and his neighbors to opply for
him. Ephron offered; Abraham both the
field and the cave as a gift. The bcraved
patriarch was unwilling thus to receive
them, lie would not bo dependent, so
loni as no necessity required it, on the
generosity of others, nor would he bury
his beloved dead in a' sepulchre that cost
him nothing. I will give thee money for
the field," he said to Ephron, " take it of
me, and I will bury my dead ' there."
Ephron, iu reply, tunned four hundred
shekels of silver as the worth of tho field.
This Bum Abraham paid by weight to
Ephron, iu the presence of tho people of
the laud. The contract and payment hav
ing been publicly witnessed, tho field, with
the cave therein, " and all tho trees that
were in the field." became the property of
Abraham and his heirs.
This is the first recorded instance of a
legal conveyance of leal estate, and it is
remarkable that it is the conveyance of a
burial place. All men cannot be land
holder?, but every man may reasonably ex.
pect to have, some day, as much land as may
servo for a grave. In the cave of Macphe
lah Abraham buried his wife. Thirty
eight years passed away and his sons buried
him in the cave. Ono hundred and thirty
two years later, Jacob dying in Egypt, re
membered that family sepulchre, and
charged his sons to bury him therein.
Having described it as " the cave that is
in the fitld of Macphelah, before Manure,
in the land of Carman, which Abraham
bought with the field of Kphrou the
Hittite," he added the words so tenderly
expressive of the natural wish to rest
among one's.kindred " There they buried
Abraham and Sarah his wife ; there they
buried Isaac and Rebekah his wife J and
there I buried Leuh." After these specific
directions there could be no mistake as to
the locality of the sepulchre to which
Jacob's last thoughts and wishes were
turned, and his sons accordingly carried
him into CaDaun and laid him with his
father?, Abraham and Isaac.
With the burial of Jacob the record of
burials in the cave Macphelah closes. The
cave is not uow in the possession of iis
rightful owners, the heirs of Abraham.
Little did the honored patriarch imagine
when ho purchased it as a burial place,
that in distant age's it would lie within tho
walls of a mosque, while his descendants,
whose presence in the land should be its
protection, would bo scattered among the
nations " an astonishment, a proverb and
a byword " because they would not listen
unto tho voice of the Lord their God.
And yet it is gratifying to know that the
tomb of tho patriarch has been protected,
though by the bands of " Turks, infidels,
and heretics." What countless multitudes
of tho wise and gocd have passed away of
whose graves wo know nothiuing.

Cash Down. On no occasion do peoplo

at a wedding. J he following tunny inci

ceremony which binds in tbe silvery bonds
of wedlock two willing hearts, and stretched
forth his hands to implore the blessings of
Heaven on the union. At this point the
groomsman, seeing the open hand reached
out, supposed it was tha signal for him to
surrender tho wedding fee, which was
burning in h'n pocket. Accordingly, just
as the clergyman closed hi.-j eyes in prayer,
