Col. VIM. johnson. of Charlotte, N
g.. and long known in our own con .nu
nifty for practical sagacity, has recently
addressed suocinot and we'll argued
letter to Gen. Gordon, United States
Senator, from Georgia, on the important
subject Of the finances Of the country.
Col. Johnson comedies with Gen. Cor.
don in the opinion that it is necessary
to increase tho circulating medium, and
that to the want OF more money ii. e..
cnrrency,) may be attributed our oft.
recurring financial panics. The bank.
ing capital Of the United States in 1860
was about 1920, $4,000. The banks
wore authorized, under their charters,
to1 issue three for every one paid in
gold. silver, or their equivalents. They
were thus empowered to set afoat more
than $500. 600. 900 circulation. The cur
renoy wss then at par, in gold, and had
greater purchasing capacity, while now
it is deprecated ten per centum, aud,
necessarily, requires that much more in
addition to the twenty per centum on
account Of increased values and produc.
tions. Thus an aggregate OF thirty per
centum more is needed now than in
1860. Taking the circulation of TINT
date as standard, and allowing for the
increased commercial wants now exist
ing. billion of dollars should be ne
cessary, instead of the $500, 600, 900,
which is the utmost sum over out at any
one time.
Col Johnson nrges that the great de-
sidcratum of the country, and one ne
csssnTy to its Development ana prosper
ity. is low rate of interest-in other
wc:as, cih:Ss:p money. Interest before
the war was from six to seven per cent.
per annum. II is now ruling at ruinous
and fabulous rates in most of the South
erD States. II the supply be increased,
based upon proper credit, it will work
reduction in the rato of inte-
rest. We have long argued that We
could not advance in prosperity until
the money rate should in some way be
reduced. The surest way is fairor dis
tribution OF national currency, and in
consequences a larger supply to the
South. This view Col. johnson urges
with force and olearness. Speaking of
the Carolinas, lie says that we had char
tered before the war S2O,00O,OOO of
banking capital. With authority to issue
threo or four for one. they could supply
nearly $50. .000,0 OF currency to indus
trial pursuits. Now they have only
s3. .455. AGO of national bank capital, and
with the reserve and restrictions upon
their issues. can scarcely furnish So, 0U0,-
600 OF currency. Ho we'll says that this
contrast shows the great destitution of
means in tho South. We shonld not
have felt the panic half as severely, If
we had had our just quota OF currency.

A Cotton FACTORY.

10 the Editor OF THE DALLAS HERALD;
/ am glad you so often urge upon the
people Of Dallas, as n means of sub
|stantial growth, as well as profit to
stockholders, the establishment of
factories, and more particularly OF
cotton factories. The idea exists in
the minds of many that there are
many obstlclee in the way Of operating
u cotton factory, and which amount to
insuperable objections to undertaking
such an enterprise in Dallas. The first
is in regard to power Some contend
that we cannot make use Of steam to
compete with water power factories.
| know that it is thought by many that
water power is the cheapest, and there
fore, the only power that can be.used
successfully. In the greatmanufactur-
ing State Of the South, Georgia, water
power is plentiful, and therefore man
succeeds in Georgia. In
New England and the Middle States
water power is much used, but along
side arc many run by steam. But in
the cold season they have to use steam
to heat up the mills, and taking into
consideration the time lost by freezes,
many are abandoning water powerand
steam.

OBJECTION sEcoND-LABoR.


O This lisa weightierobiection, think,
nthan the former. We have no trained
labor for cotton factories, but we can
such and soon train others.
The late war has left us many widows
and orphans, who would gladly accept
that kind of employment. The great
trouble with our people is they hate
confinement. They do not like regu-
lar work, and expect and require too
much freedom TO make good operativ es
in factories.
But to some of the advantages. Cost
Of transportation Of cotton to market
is big item in the account. There
the commission merchant, brokers,
insurance, drayages, COMPRISING, etc,
all come in between the planter and
the manufactures, and the manufac-
tured goods have, to some extent, to
return to the consumer through SINH
lar channels, and be subject to heavy
charges, so that by the time the farm
er's cotton he sold at IL cents a pound
gets back to him in goods, he pays an
advance Of from two hundred to five
hundred per cent, and this on the Or
binary articles of clothing used by our
farming people.
Ii we had factories in Dallas, or even
one small cotton factory, It would save
to the people all this "cost Of trans
portation,p "charges,r "e6mmissions,',
brokerage etc., or it would add the
cost of these items to the credit side of
the Investment. But another great.
advantage in having factories at home
is in diyersifying production. a farmer
who raises ten bales of cotton but pays
out nine sometimes eleyen), for his
corn, his bacon and other supplies, is
not accommodating wealth very rapidly. |
As of an individual so OF communities
Our beloved people of the South have
been "hewers of stone and drawers of
water" for new and old England. We
have produced the raw material, and
consumed the same manufactured
with more profit to the manufacturer
than there was in the production. We
have been at their mercy.
We are in the heart of good cotton
growing section. 1t grows 10 perfec-
ton right at our, aud beside saving the
items above mentioned, all or nearly all
the bagging and ties could be dispensed
with by receiving cotton'nnbaled or in
the seed. 1t costs the farmer ten per
cent lone bale out of ten-to get his
cotton giuned. A factory would
