WHAT THE SOUTH NEEDS.

A sufficient supply Of circulation
of cheap money which insurcs pro-
due,ions and enterprise and produc-
tions which insure exports and do
mestic traffic these are the links OF
natural consequence in which the
blessedness of commerce lies. These
are the links Of natural consequence
which lead to specie payments, too.
Show me q country without cheap
money--and mean by cheap mon
ey, cheap interest for money--and |
win show you a country where agri-
culture languishes. Cheap money
is the one thing needful for the ag-
riculiural and productive interests Of
this country; and let the debt bur-
dened West and the debt.burdened
South heed it. Cheap interest is
what we want. If you will show
me country that pays, as we do in
the South, from Is to &c per cent.
per annum for its currency, win
show you a country where prosperi-
ty is dead or dying, and every in
terest PROSTATE. High interest is
high evidence Of losc prosperity. II
is at the same time the evidence and
the cause of the destruction Of the
prosperity of any community.

But, sir, to return for one momen,
TO the subject of cotton culture. Il,
is truth, which the national Legis-
lature would do well to note, that
cotton bas been grown in the cotlon>
belt since the war at a loss. This
cannot continue, of course. We can
cease TO make cotton and learn to
make the grain and the meat which
we now purchase from our brother
farmers in the West; but We canno.
continue to make cotton, which loses

devastated by fire 10 1863, and since that
Time the annual rainy season has ceased"
What reliance is to be placed on all
the foregoing evidenced The area it
covers Is almost CO extensive with the
world itself, embracing Europe, Asia,
Africa, America, Australia, and various
outlying islands. The period of time it
embraces is co-extensive with human
history. A portion of the evidence re-
lates to effects produced within a stu
gle lifetime, another portion to those
which have required one or two CEN
turtles for their development. Certain
effects ave been traced to causes ia oper-
alton since the dark ages, whilst others
extend to the period during which the
Roman Empire lourished. Some evidence
is derived from the time Of the still
earlier Greek civilization, and further
from the very dawn Of history in Pales-
tine. The list of compiIers of the evidence
and the witnesses include some of the fore
most men of science and travel that have
adorned the present century and also
OF experts who have made the %invcsti-
cation Of this subject their special study.
So convincing has this evidence proved
that Governments on every side have be-
come alive to the question; and de-
partments have been organized, and large
sums of money have been spent, in or
der to preserve the trees.
