Cotton is King.


The Memphis Appeal, in recent review
of the condition Of the planters of the South,
concludes that they are better off than ever
before, aud that their prospects could not
we'll be improved The largest cotton crop
ever raised was in 1S59-60, which was about
100000 bales, realizing, at $50 a bale,
250,0O0.000. This year thescrop will be
about 100000 bales it is worth 500 a
bale, and in the aggregate 100000, 900 or
only oae fifth less than the crop of lS59-60.
Now, to the profits of this year are to be ad>
ded some important items Their expendl-
lures do not include interest on the money
which the laborer, as a slave, was worth
nor taxes on the same nor for the idle, the
sick. the young, or the aged. More than this,
their money has not been sent North for the
purchase of provisions, for whatever food
their people require has been produced from
their own soil in the greatest abundance.
Hence, it is asserted that the present cotton
crop will bring in as much money as ever
was received by the South from this source
in her palmiest days, though it is admitted
that there are some temporary drawbacks
growing out of the "late unpessantness.'
Another condition is equally favorable For.
merly the commission merchant in measure
held a mortgage on all the planters possess
sions, for he made advances on a crop before
it was grown, and this continued from year
to year, without a prospect of deliverance
But now, through the instrumentality of the
Bankrupt law, modern jubilee has dawned,
making one man as good as another Thus,
the South has a new and fair start and
with the certainty of furnishing to the mar
kets Of the world S2O0,OOOO 900 worth of
cotton year after year, a large portion of which
will he retained among themselves by reason
of their newly established thrift and the en-
largement of the list OF farm products, they
are evidently entering upon course of un>
exampled prosperity. This is said of the
staple crop of cotton alone but there will
be large receipts from sugar, rice and tobac.
co, and it is declared that of themselves they
will be able, in fifteen years, to pay off the
whole of the national debt" But if they are
wise enough to take care of themselves, this
S20O.OOO,000 coming in every year will be
invested in railroads and other improvements,
which will induce immigrants, who will add
to their population and wealth. and in time
give them. that which the North possesses
political power In view Of these brilliant
prospects, the North is destined to be unde-
ceived. and instead of carpet-baggers she
will send men of different class-men who
will seek by industry to build up homes in
the Sunny South and, finally, the North
and the whole world will unite 10 confessing
that, after all, " Cotton is King"
