A freely suspended magnet always settle in north and south direction because of the fact that opposite charges attract each other and north and south pole of Earth work as a magnetic pole. Hence, they attract each other and magnet aligns

Explanation:

It is due to the influence of the earth magnet. The direction of the earth magnet is in the North-south direction of the earth. The North pole of the earth magnet is near the geographical south pole and south pole is near the geographical north pole. Therefore North of suspended magnet align above the south pole of the earth magnet and vice versa.
