Hard Times and their Remedy.

Vast numbers Oh men r out OF
employment. They are consum.
ing and not producing. They
desire work, but there is no work
for them. Every branch in indus
try is full and overhowlng. There
is a glut of every product, waiting
to be consumed. Excessive ac-
cumula' ion had been growing for
years, until 1t eliminated in the
fall of 1873. Since then labor
has been reduced to sbe gu,ge Of
,nscessi y, over.production no Ions
ger goes on, and many thousand
men are now without work. There
work is not needed, but they need
work, for they need Wages to tb-
tam the necessarles of life. Eve
rything produced is produced in
abundance by the workers now
employed; and the accumulation
of an immense over production
continues Oh hand. What is the
cause of this pparent evil? La

There is some satisfaction, after
all, on reviewing foreign trade
statistics tor 1875. in learning
that we bought 800, o00, 000.n.
less of foreign goods and oxpor-
ted 500, 600, 900 more of AmerIa
can products in the year than we
did in 1872, and that these facts
are keenly felt and appr- cluted
by British economists. In search
ing for the causes Of q decline in
the export trade Of Great Britain
for the past few years, the Bril-
fish Trade Journal says:
Passing by the decline in our
Eastern trade, the discredit of
Turkey, and the very great de-
crease in the buying power of
Egypt, and calling to mind only
incidentally the giddy dream Of
wealth from which Germany
awOke only to find herself wesk>
.ened 10 credit, we come straight to
the arch offender-America.
The United States bought from
the rest of the world 9l10, 0O0,.
600 worth ofgoods in 1875 which
is G22, 000, 900 less than they
bought in 1872; aud side by side
with these figures we find those
relating to the exports from the
United States, which increased 6y
about twenty millions sterling.
America has thus sold more goods,
but bought less and the balance
of the goods account simply 10 for
ty null ons in her favor as CONS
pared with 1872. The fact is,
that having no securi les to sell to
the world, which the world cares
to buy, she has been obliged to
give in exchange the most conve.
nient objects which the world
does car to buy. Her credit be-
ing damaged, her purchas ing pow.
err is limited by the power of solid
barter"
We rather slike this showing,
.and if we can only keep up the
ratio of decrtas on imports, and
increase on exports. for .afew years,
we shall not be driven to the nec~
essity Of selling securities to the
world" or be restricted by a dam

The Cotton Crop.

WASHINGTON, D. c., January S.-The
statisticians Of the Department OF Agri.
culture have completed the compilation
Of official returns for the past month, and
find correct the general assumption OF a
lower yield Of lint in proportion to seed
cotton. Only Arkansas and Texas re.
port larger proportion than in 1874
The Atlantic States, which have previ.
ously made low estimates OF the aggre.
gate production, all return n smaller
yield OF lint to seed in comparison with
the previous crop, and none OF them over
80 pounds TO each 100 pounds Of seed.
The average decrease in all the States is
per cent. This reduction is attributed
in most cases TO excessive moisture and
the result Of the imperfect development
Of the boil, and in some 10 the effects Of
early drought in preventing full maturity.
Cotton grown in fields heavily dressed
with commercial fertilizers is found to
have greater proportionate develop.
ment OF seed than OF lint. The average
quality OF The fibre is somewhat lower
than last year. Arkansas and Texas fur.
nish the only exceptions to this state.
ment. 1t is thought the average depre.
citation is lightin Louisiana and Alabama,
1t is greatest in Mississippi and the At.
lantic States. The proportion OF the
crop gathered on the lst Of December
was 90 per cent, reported as follows
North Carolina, SO; South Carolina, 95
Florida, 0l; Georgia, 50; Alabama, 81
Mississippi, rs; Louisiana, so; Texas, o.
Arkansas, 76; Tennessee, rs.
In announcing the monthly cotton re-
ports OF the season the average condition
from June TO October is made 934 pei
cent, against SO in the same period o.
1874. This would indicate n crop. o.
about 100000 bales, with an equally
favorable autumn and an equal proper.
tion Of lint. The loss Of per cent in
the yield OF lint makes reduction oi
10000 bales, and the difference in ma,
turing and gathering since October points
to further reduction OF from . to 4 per
cent, with margin Of 100000 bales for
contingencies. After the first week in
December the seasons reports taken TO-
gethcr indicate crop OF not less than
4,050,00O bales, nor more than 4,l50,OO0

The Currency Question Sprung
Upon the lioHse-Anxiety and
disgust of Both Parties.

WASHINGTON, Jan. S.-A few ultra.in-
ilationists seem to be the only members OF
tho House Of Representatives who are
anxious to open the ball on the currency
question. When Mr.. Rea OF Missouri
introduced his resolution Thursday after
noon, declaring against any further con-
traction Of the currency, disgust was ap.
parent in the faces Of the great majority
on both sides Of the chamber. The mov-
or Of the resolution had evidently not
consulted with the leaders Of the party,
and they were all on their feet, first beg
ging him to allow it to be referred to the
Committee on Banking and Currency,
then voting against ordering the previous
question on its passage; and the leading
Republicans were equally anxious to
hustle it away to the pigeon.holes OF
committee, where it could rest perfectly
harmless. The majority Of those who
voted to second the previous question
were as yet comparatively unknown In
the House, though they were led, as
might bc naturally expected, by Mr..
Holman on the Democratic and Mr.. Kel.
ley on the Republican side Of the cham.
Der. It ia doubtful il tho House ia able
long to postpone giving some expression
on this troublesome question. II their
leaders could control members, the subject
would be left severely alone for the pres
cnt, but they cannot and there are some
men on both sides, who are almost de-
void Of sense on this subject, who will
be sure to move suspension Of the rules,
some Monday before long. on the fnan.
cial resolution, and then the House will
have to:votc uponit or escape by adjourn
mont
