among the advances which our
people have made III industry since their
freedom, there is perhaps 90 department
IN which their enterprise and perse-
verance have bsen SO conspicucpsly de
veloped as in the cultivation of our
staple products. Surrounded by OBJ
ssscles which would have disheartened
sad dissxsted almost any other class,
they entf1sd on cotton growing, cane
planting etc; ill-used, unfairly dealt with,
g. the extent of being despoiled OF thei
hard earned wages, or harder labored
for share of the Crop, they still continue
Ia their efforts. to obtain an honest hv-
ing, and aims a: ultimate independence.
in the minds OF business thinkers and
workers however, we are glad to observe
tina. thr ,ushout the State they are COM
handing respect and confidence That
they deserve oncouI aSement and as-
sists;ico there can be doubt. And to
these small cultivators wa would suggest
the propriety of awaiting themselves o.
every opportunity OF eFucting arrange
raents IN the City for Their supplies and
thus save themselves aud the result of their
industry from the vampires who taking
cishonorable advantage OF their helpless
ness, make them pay double and treble
the value of articles they need, and en-
courage them to obtain more than they
need, aud thus eating tie pig before n
ID born" they fud themselves involved
when their crop ia rtapcd.
We speak adyisedly, whom We az!

we will at future, and perhaps more
appropriate time for people say on the

note in prices this week, but the feeling is steadier
and the demand t'r shipment from Port Richmond is
much hrner: The latter is owing to the decline in

greater supplies 10 meet its wants.
Local troubles exist to a greater extent in the
