How GERRIr SMITH SMITH RUINLp A
MANA large proportion ofmen never can
or will accumulate or keep capital The best
Illustration OF this fact that have ever met
is that Of Gerrit Smith and his schoolmsle.
The latter, on the death of his father, came
into possession of farm, with house, furni
ture, stock, implements and all things neces.
sary to comfortable home and paying bust,
ness; but he sold lost by the sale, sold his
next house and next, always losing until he
was andless and very poor. His old school
mate, who was giving away his large patr-
mony in small parcels to landiess men, gave
him house and lot, but took the precaution
to deed it to his children For while the
restless man was very happy in his new
home, but soon got tired Of it and wanted

FooLIsH.-The proposition to redeem L. 5.
notes By the issue OF bonds bearing i've per
cent. interest in gold Is one of the most foolish
propositions OF the age. 1t Is folly 10 add 10 the
burden Of the people without benehtting the
Government or redeeming the debt. II would
be much wiser 10 issue 'greenbacks" or govern
required to transact The business OF the count ry
aking up bonds TO that amount and stopping
The interest thereon. Ii these notes were
taken in payment for duties they could be
paid out by the Cove Inment and remain al
par, unless the importations should greatly ex.
eeea our exports Of produce. In that even
the dulles could be raised, and In order TO NEE
any difficulty in this respect the difference be
tween their purchasing power and gold could b,
required in payment, and the matter be reg
ulated without continual legislation thereon
The Banks would be deprived OF their clrcula
ton, but they could manage to make dividend
without it, just rs the Farmers Bank and IL
branches are now doing. There Is no good rea
son for continuing the payment of interest OF
bonds deposited to secure bank note circulate
and If any change is made ii, i.csl afiairs W
hope it will not b. one 10 increase the number c
interest bearing bonds. The "greenbacksn al
IS popular As any other notes, and their retire
iaent W III not bs Of any advantage 10 The hus

TIE SOUTHERN fLooD "A correspondent,
Of the Memphis appeal, gives the annexed 40
eouDt OF the terrible food which has devastated
portion OF the South, and brought poverty and
distress upon so many Of the people In that
section Of our country:
A Memphis merchant who has been dow n
ibs river SOO miles states that the condition of
the people III the Overlooked sections Is ten.
hold worse than is generally believed. The
whole coast country Is under water, and the
inhabitants have been compelled 10 leave their
homes, and Zee for safety ~ the higher lands.
The negroes have left the plantations along the
river bottoms, and congregsted In great num-
bers around the towns AID country stores. =
These people have no money, and not only are
In rags but almost oR tho eve Of starvation. In
the early part Of the year the merchRnts and
storekoepeIs advanced supplies and provisions
70 the negroes who would give them q mortgage
sr lien upon the income crop. In this way
Enc negroes were enabled to procure clothing
tvod and groceries to suit their wants, and the
merchants were guaranteed payment for the
same because Of the mortgage. As the food
prevents planning, and will deny many negroes
ne means Of making any crop, the merchants
csunot eohllnhe 10 advance provisions and
clothing Ms they have been accustomed To do
The negroes, therefore, have nothing upon
which To rely for subsistence, and their condition
70 truly iDost pitiable. Al many places they
have been driven almost to desperation by hun
ger, and threaten 10 mob store houses so rs lt
get something 10 eat and wear. AT some place,
the merchants and citizens are issuing fou
pounds Of meat and a peck VI meal per cap,it ,
week TO these unfortunate peis,ns, allowin,
nothing for children. The gentleman inform
Us that many places are so densely packed will
refugee negroes that the citizens are in crea
danger OF having their houses invaded au,
