planting and farming which results 80 inju-
riously 10 the land aud its owner has serious
defects and calls for prompt ADD lasting re,
70 IN. TOO often the crcp is pledged for
provisions, working stock, or corn and fer
tillzers to make crop, before the ssed is
planted. In all cases Of this kind the platter
can barely be said to be bis own master or
master of the situation. BE stands in =
false position By being in debt at all, and is
liable to be morally, If not legally compelled
to sacrifice bis compensation for land and
other CAPITAL invested, that his factor or 9TH
er creditor may reap double interest or more
on his investment. In all planting and
farming operations, these silent partners
holding all company property for their secns
rity ara like the still SOW that gets more than
her share of the corn or swill fed equally 10
ali. beware of all temptations to run or
walk into debt. 1t is the great curse ofthe
age IN which we live. Rightly managed,
there is a great deal ofmoney in cotton. In
making haste to get rich, men lose part
Of their best Judgment, and In this weak
eued state Of sound common sense. they
mlsmanage in . thousand ways their whole
financial aud industrial system. 1t is
common error to draw on man who has
currency, provisions, or fertilizers to sell,
when the check should be on the cheaper
and more profitable storehouse Of Nature.
Her agricultural resources have yet to be
fully explored IN the best cotton climates
and soils of the South. The first cost of
raising manure, even on poor field, is
generally less than to buy it in market,
haul it home, and apply 1t to the land. A
bale of cotton, if rightly studied, is as much
3 manufactured article as q bolt Of cotton
cloth, yet farmers do not look at this great
staple, or any other crop, In this true
light. Hence their acknowledgement. This
will continue to their serious injury, until
they see beforehand what nature requires
to form paying crop, and how the raw
material consumed for that purpose, may
be had Of the least possible cost. Cotton
may be manufactured out of carbon and
the elements of water, which together
make 9sA per cent. of the staple, much
cheaper than is now done, and it can 60 Il
consumers burdened with smaller commits
sions. The whole transaction should b
earnestly studied as an art and science. Oul
climate is Incompatible, and SO far as on
soil is defective, it can be easily improved
by wise cooperation. Farmers may yet b
in condition to handle their cotton and
other staples, and happily be quite iudepen
dent of all banks and speculstors; but they
must creep before they walk, and walk be
fore they RIM.

call, for sums loaned to some of the most
prominent citizens of St. Louis, to the
aggregate amount of sixty thousand dol

Returning to the secret Division of the
Treasury we find two large iron, burglar
proof safes with combination locks, filed
with plates, rolls, dies, molds, paper, etc.
There are stored in these safes upwards of
seven hundred thousand dollars worth of
counterfeit bank notes, bonds, fractional
currency, revenue stamps, etc., and upward
of ninety sets of the plates, rolls and dies
used in their manufacture. About two
thirds of this "cony" are of issues that have
been withdrawn, and are no longer in cir
culation; but fully one-third are counter
feits of recent date, and are, for the great
er part, admirably executed. OF dies and
mods for manufacturing limitations of gold,
silver, and nickel coin, there is also quite
an assortment. ~
There is also in one of the safes small
tin box containing fifty thousand dollars
worth of counterfeit and "cleansed" revenue
stamps of the various classes and denomi-
nations, captured at the time of the break
ing up of the notorious "Staten-Island
gang, Gin October, 1859. This box, with
its contents, was found in the room Of a
well known and very popular colonel in
New York city, who moved in the very best
cf society, and was to all appearance, e
gentleman.
The most bare-faced fraud among the at
tempts of specie is the so-called Spietn'dr-
ken, which were for time successfully i'm
posed upon immigrants in European ports.
They are very clumsilY made, Of some sort
of base metal which soon corrodes and gets
green, and bsar upon one side the coat-of
arms of the United States, the same as the
genuine coin, and upon the reverse the
word "Spielm0rken," and underneath the
figures 500" Although this would scarcely
deceive native American, it took a long
time, and neeessitated considerable CORES
pondence 10 the department of State before
this outrage could be stopped. Besides
these articles, some thirty-four costly print
ing presses have been seized; also, three
transfer presses and one performing ma
chine, of the kind used in perforsting the
sheets of postage stamps. Gl

The average annual value of this crop is
two hundred and ninety million dollars.
These figures show that this Southern staple
has sold for two thousand three hundred
and twenty million dollars in the last eight
years, since the war. This is larger sum
by 500, 100000 than our present national
debt. How much of this capital extracted
from our plantations can be found in the
possession of those who raise over $780,

Southern farmers to answer. Our impress

management, only fraction, and in too
many cases, small fraction, of this money
