OFFICE OF II DAILY APPEAL
MEMPHIS, September 10, 1863.
The money market to day was quiet and
rates generally unchanged. We note a
purchase of three city bonds, ex-coupons,
by a Madison street dealer, at 463<e, and
one first mortgage bond of the Memphis
and Little Rock Railroad by a Jefferson
street firm at 67c.
Exchange is scarce and in good demand
with rates steady.
We know of no change in Scrip or War
rants, except some weakness p~erceptible
in City Scrip, owing 10 the large amount
of securities which are daily going out Of
the hands of the city. Il is safe to say that
every dollar in the shape Of collateral
given by our authorities has slipped out
of their hands and been sold TO meet obi
cations. 1t is said that the city stock in
the Mississippi and Tennessee Railroad,
which has been pledged as collateral for a
loan of S25, 200, may be redeemed, az there
Is ready money enough on hand 70 take
It up, but we do not know that the inten-
tiOn Is to do 50.
The stFingency in the money market is
developing gold to a considerable extent,
and sales are larger than at any time du-
ring the year. We note $500 in two or
three lots at 1917 to 1S43[c; $1,000 and $1,000
at l34Zc. WeouOte as follows:

A correspondent of the Republic, a new
evening paper just issued in New York,
SAYS of former and present yields Of
cotton: aID.i CO.
Prior to the war, the growth Of cotton
In the Southern States had, under the
slave system, reached large results. The
Growth Of 1853. marketed in 1883 and 1850,
as about 100000 bales, and the growth.
0flS60. marketed in 1860 and ls0l, was, say
about 4,0OO. 900 bales. The cotton supply
Il 1852. '63 and "a was 10y capture and
block q running. Under the scarcity,
prices i'm Europe and this country went up
enormously, say to about % cents per
: Der. Found, currency, in thls country.
Good part Of the advance here was due 10
ghe depreciation of our currency, which,
as YOU will reoOlleet at one time, u think
in September, 1881 had reached a rate
that made the greenback dollar worth
only between 40 and 80 cents, specie.
The FIRST sign of the peace Of 1868 was
the renewal of the cotton trafic-it tooka
long time % axhume the buried cotton
bales hid away from the Yankees" On
lst September, 1866, the Southern States
were pretty well cleanedo of all old cotton,
also Of the little grown ia 1865. IN
figures, if ] reeollect Alright show that g.
10000 bales were received from the close
of The war in 1850 10 the lst of September,
1866. We have since had the grOWths of
1866. 1867, 1868, under the free labor sys-
Tern. and other changed conditions in
cotton states made by the war. These
three crops aggregate probably 100000
bales-little over two million bales per
aunum. This reduced growth in the
limited States-less than half Of the annual
production ten years agO-has run con-
sumption very close on supply.
The LIST September commences the sea-
son of IsG9-70 this years growth) with a
stock of not over 10000 bales cotton in all
morris. from Boston TO Galveston. The
present value of cotton in this country,
reduced TO gold, is double the average
prior 1 0 the var, and is the same in Liver

am DESTROYS that Pierce county shall
not go unrepresented at this exhibition

in the belief that our generous soil can

1t is our duty and should be our pride
to do what we can to encourage the state
organization which seeks to promote the
interests which we, the people of Pierce
county, are mostly engaged in.
Who will attend the state exhibition?
Anybody that has produced or manufac
tured anything nice who will not take it
