The above table suggests several ques,
tions: First-Why the cold and COM
paratively unproductive states of Mas
sachusetts, Connecticut and Rhode
Island are SO much more populous than
the three states of Georgia, Alabama
and Mississippi, with rich soil and gen.
ial climate, where everything supporting
life grows in vast abundance Why is
it that rocky, bleak Massachusetts, with
but one-eight the area, has nearly ten
times as many people to the square mile
as delightful, fertile Georgia-bOth C the
cold Thirteen" Why is it that cold.
stormy, sterile Rhode Island, witt her
five counties, has nearly ten times as
many people to the square mile as fertile
Mississippi? Again, why is it that the
three New England ltates, with all their
disadvantages of soil and climate, have
from four to eight times more wealth,
per head, than the named southern
states, with all their superior
advantages of soil and climate 2
1t cannot be on account of any pecu-
liarity in the two people of the two
sections. The south has always equaled
the north in statesman, jurists, orators,
generals. The answer to the foregoing
question, is found in the following tables,
two, three, four and five. They speak
for themselves, and show what people
can do when resovled to do:

1t is presented because Memphis has
some of the largest and most reliable
boot and shoe houses in the Mississippi
valley houses whose constantly growing
trade shows that they possess the
full confidence of the retail merchants
trading here. Massachusetts had but
2SO, 900 cattle in 1870, Georgia, Alabama
and Mississippi had inward of 2, 800, 900.
Yet, the dry hides are sent from the
south to Massachusetts,, where they
are tanned, dressed and made into boots
and shoes for the very people who slaught-
cred the animals and now the hair from
their bodies IS often sent back to us for
plastering purposes. 1t should create no
surprise if the bones were gathered up
and sent to the Yankee mills for conver-
sion into powder to be used for fertilizing
the very fields the cattle once grazed
upon. Should we not convert most of
these hides into boots and shoes? And
would not such an industry start others :?
Would it not start other and different
manufactures, and thus add to our pop
ulation by diversifying our industries
To ask such questions is to answer them.

Heavy and solemn,
A cloudy column.
Through the green plain they marching come
heasureess spread, like a table dread
For the wild grim dice OF the iron game,
Looks are bent on the shaking ground
Hearts beat low with knelling sound
Swift by the breast that must bear the brunt
Gallops the Major along the front.
"Haltl"
And fettered they stand at the stark command,
And the warriors silent, halt.
Proud is the blush of morning glowing,
What on the hilltop shines in flowing?
"See you the foeman's banner waving?
We see the foemans banner wavingi"

How they ring through the ranks, which they rouse

See the smoke how the lightning is ceaving asunder
Hark the guns peal peal how they boom in their

From host to host with kindling sound,
The shouted signal circles round;

The war is raging, slaughter waging,
And heavy through the Teeking pail

Here it is sure that in 1870 Mass

Here it is sure that in 1870 Massachu-
setts had nearly six hundred million
dollars invested in manufacturers, and
the three states more than eight hundred
millions, thus invested while the three
cotton states had but fifty-two millions
thus invested; Tennessee having nearly
as much as Georgia, Alabama and Mis-
sissippi combined. These manufacturing
industries of the three Yankee states
create a demand for all kinds of food,
and hence thesmall farmers and gardeners
there, have markets right at their doors
for every thing they or the thousand of
fsctory-hands need in the way of food.
This constantly growing demand always
keeps food up at good prices, and the
producer is never distressed, as with us,
for want of purchaser for his beef, NUT
ton, pigs, fowls, milk, butter or vegeta-
bles. Everything raised out of the
ground has even more ready sale than
the fabrics of the factories; and thus the
trade among small dealers never Ian
guishes. even though the mill-owDers

The slow fighter was a tall,
raw-boned specimen of the Pike county
breed, and when he arrived in the mining
camp the boys began to have fun with
bim-to "mill him." as they call it in
the parlance Of the mines.
He stood it for long time with perfect
equanimity, until finally one of the party
dared him out of doors to fight.
He went. When they got all ready
and squared off, Pike county stretched
out his long neck and presented the tip
of his big nose temptingly close to his
tOrmentor Pm a little slow" he said,
and can't fight unless I'm well riled
Just paste me one-a good 'un--right on

His request was complied with.
That was a good 'un, he said, calmly
"but I don't feel quite riled yit"-
turning the side OF his head to bis
adversary" please chug me another

The astonished adversary again com
piled, whereuron Pike county, remark
ing that he was " not quite as we'll riled

The Hon. J. I. Trezevant, of Arkan-
sas, in a series of articles on the products
of the south and the manufactures OF
the north compared, published in the
Memphis Appeal, writes as follows:
Perhaps the facts found in the follow
ing tables, from the census, report OF
1870, may serve to stimulate the active
interest already manifested by some OF
our leading citizens. That the facts
may be seen in their most striking light,
1 have compared the three small states of
Massachusetts, Connecticut and Rhode
Island with the three larger ones of
Georgia, Alabama and Mississippi. These
last illustrate the cotton growing inter
ests the others, the cOtton-manufactur-
ing interests. The manufacturing states
have a cold climate, and a soil net suited
to the higher conditions of agriculture.
The cotton states have a soft, delightful
climate, and soil so fertile as to pro-
duce, in unlimited amount, under good
culture, all the grains, grasses and fruits,
besides rice, sugar and cotton. When
we consider that the one item OF cotton,
in some form or other, has freighted and
still freights more ships, sinks more
mines, builds more machinery, organizes
more moneyed institutions, creates more
commerce, and clothes more people than
any other product OF the earth, we,maY
well wonder why those who grow 1t do
not also measurably control its manufac-
ture. The tables below are 80 arranged
as to invite attention without confusing,
and under each, 1 have ventured to make
such comments as seem proper.
Table No. l gives the area of the states
named above, with the population of
each, the population per square mile, the
total wealth of each, and the wealth per
capita, according to the census of 1879.
l have added Tennessee to the list, as
Memphis is her great commercial focus.
