Oas OF the results Of the change in ID,

as far as il is possible, the very best Aoil'!

u 40 Logger any disposition TO adhere to tue

mit,sd that production Of the raw mSieria

eapltsI necessary to p epAre il EF the pur
pose, Tor which il is designed. The iron,

fully blessed, can and viii be turned into the
ehaanslI OF future greEtnesS, pa7i PGSSu
with the manufacturing interests, which viii
nov take fresh start, and in the nature Of
things vii ere long, contribute materially
80 our prosperity.
To those whose tastes and inelinStions Lead
them in the direction referred to, no new
arguments are necessary, for if we look al
the condition OF these interests before the
var, tns conclusion ia Irresistible that the,
we're fast dispelliug the de nsion that tn,
production of raw material aud its Rsnntac
ture we're antasoGistic. We always prefer
to make good our views by practical Illus
tra.ion aud "matter Of fact" argument
From the days Of GJverpOT SVotswOOd, II
the colonial era OF Virgin 70 70 present,
fl has been known that in the Do gels Of thi
old Commonwealth were the most mex
haustible resources Of iron, and that by the
energy Of fsR men engaged from time to
time In its production and manufacture, !,
was a. last obtaining its just and proper as
cendAncy. Free trade notions Snd Other
.,old fogy" ideas checked the development
OF our iron wealth. Virginia, in construct
iag her railroads, laid down over the mex
haustible bsdI Of iron ore, rails manutac
tured in Europe There was neither sense
nor economy IN this. IL was the result

NORTHERN CREDIToRs-LErTERs
FROM SOUTHERN NE CHANTS.

NUN OOO NOHAN
The N. Y. Journal of Commerce says
There are some exceedingly plea ant in H.
cations Of the future in the private intelli-
genre received by our merchants from their
old Southern customers. These are not so
much Indications of abil ty as of hopefulness
and intention to start again on the ri. hit track.
We have seen many letters giving good
promise Of vig0r and activity in the cities,
though all agree in representing the condi-
ton or thugs rs beyond descr .ption depfes-
sing aud diSpiriting.
A well known Southern merchant writes to
one II the largest h,u.es in this city letter,
from which we ex ract:
TN er.tanding /. ow that the mails are
going No tn, we avail ourselves Of the first
opportunity to say that We regret exceed
lug that debt justly due you should have
re uained so long Unpaid. We are of the
opinion thar, however war may affect public
property aud interests, private con- racts
should not Oe iuterfered with, and We sin
cerely hope that it may yet be in our power,
as 1t certainly has always been our purpose,
tO pay every dollar we owe. This purpose
and wish We have expressed during the war.
We think 1t proper 10 say that during the
past four years VIC have engaged in no spec
ulatlons and have maze no money. On the
contrary, our losses have been heavy, and
now, under this new and unexpected order
Of things, We have little or nothing left US
but place of business ana small and in
considerable stock of goods. As soon as the
way Is clear We shall open our store and en-
deavor to make some arrangements for car
rying on our business"
Another merchant writes
owe take pleasure in renewing a cores
pondenca so long interrupted. We have
suffered severely by fire, which consumed
our establishment with all it contained, and
has left us entirely without funds. Our real
estate is more than sufficient to pay our
Northern debt, that being the only debt due
by us, and as soon as the civil laws are rein
stated VIC intend TO dispose # il for that
purpose. Our chest is still in tne ruins, and
We are unable TO get at statement OF your
account. Please send it u US, with interest
aided, and We will remit you the amount as
soon as our arrangements are perfected"
Other letters 10 the same effect are lying
before US. There is no indisposition visible
among Southern merchants TO recognize
their Northern Indebtedness, but the means
are not abundant, either 10 pay or to com.
mence business again. The seizure of the
cotton in priva hands by the government is
almost the straw which breaks the cancels
back. Would il not be better TO look ON that
stock of cotton as the only remaining capital
on which the Southern men can give the sc.
curity for old debts, and commence again
same bu,iness' Without capital, without
an industrial labor sy,tem, without prospects
of agricultural products, Without the prOba-
bllity Of mmigrati for q loug time to colue,
what are they TO do9 Let good sense and
business experience be brought to help them
in this emer. ency.

BUSINESS on BROAD STREET.-Since the
ate hiatus created on Main street by the
destruction of its fairest business portion,
Broad street has been looking up wonder
tully'in a commercial way, and the greater
PORTION OF the business heretofore monopo-
lized by Main street finds itself transferred
up town. Stores are opening by scores, and
merchants, large and small, seem to be
Irving thriving trade. These gratifying
business indications permeate the whole
ength of the street, and, from Church Hill
% First street, the stores are increasing in
lumber and Importance.
