4 rect trade to carry this great measure to the
benefit of each city, and, at the same time, for
the benefit of the whole South. There is indeed
no rivalry between New 0rleans Charleston and
Baltimore. These cities represent distinct and in
i dependent interests, and should act in harmony.
If possibly, their enterprising merchants should
come in competition, it will be an honorable
rivalry OF individuals and only serve to strengthen
the great :. trade alliance which ought to exist
II at the South. The German States have their Com
mercial League or Zolverein. In that League are
embraced cities having different and opposing in
terests. Bremen and Hamburg are within a
stones throw of each other. Yet we behold q
| unity of action cordialty of sentiment and a
spirit Of common enterprise which has made the
| three Hanseatc cities commercial power in
IMIurone Why should not the whole South COM
bine in a common cause and have. through the
4 force Of public opinion and by the aid and sane
| tion of Stale nolicy. practically a Zolyerein!
Why should not Baltimore, Charleston, Memphis
and New Orleans combine for the common good? I?
Il There exists a strong association in New Orleans
one in Texas, one in Georgia. and the City Council
j Of baltimore has Just appointed committee to
cnrresnnna With these The Zolverein at its next
a ANIMAL meeting. viii take this trade association
