The Southern Commercial Con-
VentiOn.

The following communication from Mr..
Button to the Pree Press speaks for itself :
OCTOBER 80, 1869.
Hon. q. q. Benedict, Editor Free Press
SIR In your editorial upon the South
ern Commercial Convention you state
that, in speech upon the resolution to
repair the levees of the Mississippi,
pledged the capitalists of the North to
furnish five hundred millions of dollars
toward that object. Doubtless you OBJ
tanned your information upon this point
from the Louisville Courier of the 18th
inst, which so reported my remarks BY
reference to the enclosed paragraph from
Courier of the 10th inst, you will note
that the said report was not correct. Per-
NIT me to explain. The report of the
Committee on Mississippi Levees led to
considerable discussion, inasmuch as th Q
Committee did not favor direct appeal
to Congress for an appropriation, but re-
commended memoralizing Congress for a
Charter under general law, believing
that thereby private capital could be OBJ
tanned to carry out the work. This re-
port met my hearty approval, and
considering the subject as one of
great national Importance, urged
the Convention to adopt the re-
port, stating that, in my opinion, if
Congress passed an act in accordance with
the resolution, five hundred millions of
dollars could be obtained if necessary,
from Europe, to complete the work. L
also called attention to the fact that the
South was poor, and that the capital of
the North was in measure controlled by
stock gamblers. That our country was
burdened with heavy debt which we
were in honor bound to pay, and that
therefore the South could not expect aid
from our people, and ought not to ask
Congress for an appropriation, but they
should see to it that, if the Convention
passed the resolution, bill in accordance
with the report should be drawn up and
presented to Congress by honest, high
minded men, who were above the petty
intrigues of the stock gambler or LOBBYIST.
That such bill would, in my opinion,
pass Congress, and bring to its support
millions of foreign capital-money now
idle that might be obtained to aid us in
the development of our great resources,
had the people OF the old world implicit
confidence in our integrity.
Yours Respectfully,
CHARLES PoMERoY BUTTON.

AFFAIRS IN UTAH.-The Utah Maga-
zine still lives, md -isnorsrebellious than
ever. III rscsnt isue Is stronger than
ever seaiast the lomineeeing influence Of
Brigham Young. Young has forbidden
the Mornons trading with Mr.. Godbe, the
rssssaat druggist, and the saints viii
have 10 - without their "pills and pukes"
for some time, as there is really no other
medicine store in the town. There are q
very large number Of Mormons who sym
pathize with Godbe and the Utah Maya
zine people, but few of them as yet dare
to speak out their feelings:
A correspondent of the New York Her
aid thus tells the story Of how Brigham
builds railroads -
It will be remembered that Brigham
Young had contract to build the section
of Pacific railroad from Echo to Ogden, a
distance of forty miles. He engaged
Mormons to work it, and promised them
two dollars and half day. With their
blind faith in his promises they went to
work, and q great number of them have
never received cent to this day. Some
of his sub-contractors, to whom he was
indebted in the sum of $1,000, pressed for
settlement; he coolly offered them 5000
and span of mules each, which they in.
dignantly refused, saying that they had
paid out great deal of money to the
men, and wished return. The matter
still remains in allegiance. Brigham, as
contractor of course received the paw
which he took in railroad iron, two loco.
motives and other railroad supplies. with
which he is now building the Utah Paci-
fic railroad from the Union Pacific at Og.
den to Salt Lake City, thirty-six miles
distant. He has Mormons at work on
the road, and is allowing them one dollar
per day. He does not promise them any
cash, but allows them to work out their
tithing in this manner.
The same authority also gives this in
cident Of Mormon life and manners =
Elder Joseph F. Smith recently married
the widow and two daughters of his own
brother. The reporter of the Salt Lake
Telegraph (Stenhouse's paper made men,
ton of the fact in the local column, and
wished to know what relation the children
of the two daughters would bear to Smith.
This 30 enraged son of Smith that he
went to the United States court room,
where he heard the reporter was engaged,
and oollared him, and by main force pulled
him into the street, and gave him such a
beating that his life is despaired of. 1t is
suggested that the curiosity of the re-
porter on that point has been fully salts
fed.

IMPORTANT TO BANKERs.-A question
of some moment to banks and bankers is
involved in the case of the Chicopee Bank
of Massachusetts, against the Seventh
National Bank, of Philadelphia, now
pending before the United States Supreme
Court. The Fhiiadeiphia bank sent ON
accepted bill of exchange to the Massa-
chusetts bank for collection, which was
lost in the latter bank, and was not again
found until some time after maturity, and
consequently no demand was made on the
bill, and no protest or other notice of nom
payment given in season to hold the draw
er and endorser. Under these circum-
stances the virdict was for the Philadel-
phia bank in the court below for the
amount of the bill. The Chicopee Bank
brings the case here, insisting that, mas
much as the bill was payable at its count
er, no presentment was necessary that,
as the acceptors did not provide for the
payment on the day of maturity, the bill
was dishonered, and the Philadelphia
bank, being advised of the circumstances,
had sufficient notice to enable it to charge
the endorsers and save its correspondent
The loss of the bill was brought to the
knowledge of the Philadelphia bank by a
telegram from the Chicopee Bank, in re-
ply to inquiry as to payment, stating that
the bill had not been received. This was
two days after it was payable. The letter
containing it had slipped through crack
in the desk of the cashier of the Chico
pee Bank.

MISUNDERSTANDING to all acoounts,
the Emperor Napoleon is pretty well con-
WINGED by this time that his earthly ca
reer is nearly finished. In view of this
solem fact, it is reasonable to suppose be
is shaping his policy 80 that when he lays
off his imperial robes and surrenders bis
crown forever his maine may be honored
among men as that of wise and liberal
minded monarch. T lis leniency in the
case of Rochefort is something remarka-
BILE when the offenses of the latter are re-
membered. His con ciliatory policy is
not unfraught with danger, however, and
may possibly end in the premature termi-
nation Of his reign.

ABOUT DAILY NEWSPAPERS. = The
New York Journal of Commerce, dwell
ling on the fact that during the past
thirty years no less than fifty daily
papers have been started in the city of
New Y ork, lived for a short time and then
died for want of adequate support, after
having sunk millions of dollars, moral
ICES in this instructive vein:
"The reasons why not more than one
out of say fifty daily newspapers sue
coed, are not generally understood. If
they were, instances would be fewer of
the sinking of fortunes in the unavailing
attempt to found daily waste of
money as literal and complete as if the
owner had burned it in his parlor CRATE.
"The first and greatest difficulty is the
want of sufficient means. Upon this
point, which has been frequently eluci-
dated, we will barely touch. To run
first class daily land only such stand the
least chance of surviving in the struggle
for existence) costs not far from 81 900 a
day, even with moderate circulation.
This rate of expenditure takes frightful
daily bites out of the capital and, unless
the protector has the purse of Stewart,
Astor or Vanderbilt, he cannot stand the
inroad upon his funds for many months,
or weeks, or days. Among professional
newspaper men in this city the cash in
hand required to give first class news
paper chance of life is estimated at
from half to three.quarters of million.
It's failure, without such sum at its back
which it is prepared to invest boldly
and sagaeiously-is certain. Its success
after the money has been all spent, in the
wisest and most judicious manner, is still
highly problematical Unless all the
circumstances favor the undertaking-if
there is weakness or want of tact develop
ed at any stage of it-no amount of money
can put daily paper in profitable opera
ton in this city. The failing newspapers
are usually brought up with a round
turn before many tens of thousands have
been sunk. The hackers become alarmed
and back out. If the new concern is q
stock company, the subscribers to shares
pay one or two of the assessments, and
then forfeit what they have invested RAJ
ther than lose more. Only in few cases
are men 80 plucky-or perhaps we would
say 30 foolish-as to 60 on wasting . half
million before abandoning their ill-ad-
vised newspaper scheme. Discourage
ment and disgust commonly supervene by
the time that $4,000 or 500, 900 have
vanished in the yawning gulf"
The editor then goes on to show that
the newspaper business differs from most
others in the fact that when once fairly
established it can be indefinitely extended,
with no risk and but little extra trouble,
and then adds:
'The most promising fields Of first-class
daily newspapers being already occupied,
no new journal can command great
success. except BY taking away some
subscribsrs ftom other papers. This Is 9
very difficult thing to 40. II never can
