sUwBER TWO.

We have discussed the necessity for
stimulating expefimeDteTs In cotton pro-
Guctlon, and the probabilities OF success.
Let us now examine the necessity for
encouraging, at the same time, efforts to
extraordinary productions OF corn, oats
and clover; LET % show why one is the
natural complement of the other. Dur
ing the year '66, the real and ertenpOr-
issd farmers of the South were made
crazy by the very high prices of cotton
10 the latter part OF '65. They said "On
three acres OF land we can easily produce
bale Of cotton, which will nett 1925.
With this money we can buy 200 bushels
OF corn, which Is much more than we
can make on the same surface.n This
argument, generally acted upon, put the
country TO the very lowest level OF pow
erty. The crop ives short, the price de-
cllnsd, and the farmer closed bis busi-
ness Of the year with great loss. But he
was IN debt TO his commission mer-
chant, and that debt could only be paid
with cotton. Hence the merchant boil
stored up his bankrupt creditor for q sec
ond effort. Much cotton and little corn
was again the System in '67. The price
went down, down, snd carried with 1t
not only the ruined farmers, but also the
merchants. So we commeHced '6S, as
poor as can be well imagined. The mer-
chants, pressed and ruined themselves,
had not the ability to grant further fa..
yoTs to the ctuntry, and, consequently,
the faEmsrs we're compelled to the meet

NEW ORLEANS, Aug. 3, 1865.
Mr.. EdiOr-Will you permit me to call the
attention Of your readers to the fact, that, not
withstanding nearly all Of the colored BARRIERS,
colored draymen, colored osbmen, and colored
artisans generally, arc radicals, they are largely
patronised by the white man Of this city, who are
Democrats, when they might support white men,
who are Democrats, dsiug the same Kind OF
work.
1t is the part of policy OF the Democratic
patty to encourage those who belong to their
party and not to encourage, aid or assist their
political enemies By giving them work or employ
ment Of any kind.
Let Us, then, set up to this policy, and let the
colored men kaow that their friends are the
white men Of the South. and that they are
dependent Epon these white men for thetr
bread.
Let every merchant and grocer who employs
| porter or drsyman, every lawyer and doctor whit
employs an ONCE boy or driyer-in fine, every
person who has employment to give, see that IT !
| given to Democrat, be he white OF colored.
