New Firm.

We would direct especial attention to
the new business firm of F. M. Cash Il
Co., cotton factors and general commits
sion merchants, whose Office after Octo'
Der let will be at the corner of Front
and Madison streets. Mr.. Cash, the
senior partner, is extensively known
in commercial circles, and also to
planters, as being formerly of
the old, reliable, popular and
enterpriaing firm of Falls & Cash. Long
years ago. as early as 1852, it will be re-
membered, they gave an impetus to com.
merce here by shipping cotton directly
through, by boat and rail, to New York,
and thereby laid the foundation Of trade
that has grown into huge proportions
since. The experiment was looked upon at
the time, by the most sagacious of our bus
mess men, as visionary and of doubtful
success. New Orleans was supposed,
then, to be the only cotton market and
outlet for all cotton brought to Memphis
for shipment. Falls 4 Cash being far
seeing and practical business men, saw,
at once, that if New York could be
brought into competition with New Or
leans much of the immense capital Of
that great city would be speedily invest
ed in the cotton trade, which would
inevitably bring about, through ef-
forts to handle the staple, strong
competition 10 the Southern markets.
Prices, of course, were enhanced,
and planters soon began to real
ize as high prices in Memphis for cotton
as the same article would bring in New
Orleans The rivalry between the two
great cities still exists, and consequently
Memphis cotton, by having choice Of
markets, will never fall far below either.
, Messrs. Falls Il Cash were the pioneers in
this movement, and to them much of the
prosperity of our trade is due. The office
of f. M. Cash h Co. is at present at No.
5 Madison street, where their friends and
customers should call until the removal
above mentioned.
