whether there will be sufficient spirit left at the North

absorbing all the powers and aboshing all the liberties

in the talk coming from the Northwest now is the time

1t is true that although armies may be called OUT these

The CURRENCY is the topic now most earnestly dis
cussed by public writer's, inanciers and legislators
The two things to be desired the reduction of
its volume and the establishment of perfect confidence
in its ultimate redemption. How these things TO
be done
If TIE currency could be funded it would of course
the first end proposed 1t would reduce the vol
of circulation. But to give fall confidence to eth
Confederate bills or bonds adequate provision must
be made for tteir ultimate redemption. They must have
q basis and that basis must be taxation We think it
comes down to that at last. The Corederacy has no
priyy purse. What it gets it must get from tie peo
pie, and it must get it by of taxation. The mere
voluntary system will carry no government through
such struggle as is now going in this country.
Several causes combine to produce the present ex-
travagant prices of nearly all commodities, among
which the blockade the redundant circulation and per-
haps some want Of confidence it's redemption, are not
among the least The supply of course is reduced while
the demand is increased. These things enable the
specuaor to extort but speculation alone is OF the
least of the present state of things. Even the
redundancy of the currency has probably been exagge
rated far lis effects concerned, for cur
rency is needed than formerly eore the total
ngui3hmeut Of lie credit system We suppose that
the Gonederacg could have used without serious loss
depreciation currency twice large that which
existed under the credit system. This limit however,
has no doubt been passed. and this fact has combined
with Others, 70 bring about the present extravagant
prices

AS the spring opens the question OF he caracttr of
the crops to be planted is beginning TO tract atf
tion and this very properly for the very lie OF the
country may depend upon how it Iesp5fdel to in
practice
Seeing the situation of the co1vtry, aid inc bessfy
for supplying the army in the field and the people at
home, one would think that only food would be r,scd,
and yet from the exhortaons and expostaIations "bch
we find in the columns of very many o coempora-
ries especially those of the Southern Stat s. "e
must conclude that there is disposition return
again to cotton, to the comparative neglect of food
crops.
We do trust That this course viii not be pursued 10
any extent. There is sufficient lab, in the couI-
try to raise any large amount of cotten the
time make supply OF iood. The same reasoning OF
will apply to tobacco the raising o. which ca1-
not supply any real want contribute ia any way 10
the sustaining of our troops.
If it was proper last Spring to urge this matter
strongly if vehementy upon the attention OF the
peope of North Carolina is douby SO at this tilne'
since many plantations in the Eastern part OF tie
State will be wholly OR in part uncuItNaled, owing 10
the of the Dt groes points of greater secur
ty Thus removed their labor cannot be expected 10
be as productive as in their former locations with more
permanent means and appliances. and it must be
further recoced that tie white labor of the State fer
agricultural and indeed all other purposes greatly
duced the operation ard enforcement Of tie conscpon
act If then any Of the remaining labor of the State be
devoted to the cultivation Of cotton tobacco it
evident that scarcity and suffering must be the result
We may have peace this year or we may not. That
is matter involved in doubt, but there Can be no
doubt of the fact that peace peace people must
eat, and they cannot eat cotton and although some
mascate tobacco, have not met any person able TO
subsist upon it as regular diet.
