New ORLEANS CoTTon EXCHANGE,
NV ORLEANS, Sept. 8, 1877 T
ALLOWANCE ron side Il
Attention il called to the annexed u q
ii IN of the Board Of Directors vi the
New Orleans Cotton Exchange, in rela-
ton to resolution adopted Mt the fourth
Iday's session of the National Cotton
Exchange, fixing III allowance Tor !
pieces in all American markets, VIZ
Whereas, The National Cotton TX
lobance Convention on lis fourth days
session ut Greenbricr White Sulphur
|Springs, Va, during July, 1877, passed.
la resolution to the effect THAT on oil
bales of cotton with side pieces, an al
|lowance of three pounds per bale be
made TO the buyer" and
Whereas, there no longer exists any
legal necessity for the use OF side
pieces Oh bales of cotton, and
Whereas, part OF the the cotton crop
ia now marketed with and part without
side pieces, thus making a relative diff
ference in weight of bales that cannot
be properly allowed for by the buyer;
therefore be it
Resolved, That from aud after the
LIST day October, 1877, all bales of cot
ton delivered in with strips of baggirg
Idenominated ''side pieces" shall be
subject to oh allowance to the buyer of
|C0 three pounds per bale for each and
every bale so covered.
The modification Of the law enforc-
ing the use of the side pieces, loft it OPP
tional with planters whether their use
should be continued. The trade goner-
ally here and abroad are opposed to
such continuance. 1t is urged that
with proper handling, cotton can be
brought from plantations to market in
as good condition without as with side
pieces !; and the customary expression
in our ports of tho bales for export to
other markets, reduces their size SO shat
side pieces are worse than useless. be-
ing absolutely in the way.
| It is the common custom OF buyers
for export to make allowance in their
calculations of the actual cost Of cotton,
for the weight of the bagging and ties,
manufacturers basing their contracts for
supplying cotton yarns and cloths upon
The net price of raw cotton laid down
at their mills.
The three pounds per bale for side
pieces have hitherto been allowed for
in their calculations as fully as has
been the weight OF Che rest of the bag>
ging and the iron ties, all of which are
Of no use to them after they cease to be
O towering to the cotton.
Hence, the omission of side pieces,
for which they have only apparently
land not in roality) been paid in the
sale of thor cotton, will be a direct and
positive saving to planters. Especially
is this the case, rs the use of side pieces
increases the consumption, and con.
soquontly, aids ia the enhancement Oh
the price of bagginS.
BY order of the Board of Directors.

The evidences in regard to the inns
provement Of trade, says a New York
contemporary, ore too widely diifnsod
and too conclusive to be disputed. So
far as the Southern trade is concerned
there con he no doubt that, tho frugali-
ty engendered by war has made tho
Southern people relatively better of
than any other section Of the Union.
While the South is in some respects be.
hind the North and West, the condition
Of the great body OF its people is really
superior to that of the corresponding
class elsewhere. AS the North and
West, the prime cause OF the promised
change in its condition is the exceptions
a, magnitude and excellence of the
present crops, and, unless the opportu>
atty for profitable sale of the surplus
crop is prevented, the revival of busi'
Iness promises to come soon. BY this
the country will gain its financial health
and strength rs we'll a bring substan-
tial relief to the multitude, who have
suffered terribly from the prolonged
depression and distress.

Gov. Brown.

We do not propose to champion him,
but il seems to ns that many OF our
State exchanges are ~censuring him in
turns that are unwarrantcd. We do
not see that his letter contained any
thing that can in any wise iniure the
Democratic party; neither can we see
from it that he has 'vllii1ed the people
of mississippi" as some exchanges
charge. To prove this charge they
quote this sentence from Coy. Browns
~Iotter: II want no Office, and If I did
I would not seek it through a sea of
defamation" Where is any villifca-
ton in that sentence? The old hero
simply means that he would seek no
Office Oh the Independent ticket. I,et's
hearia little less about Brown t'villifying
the people Of Mississippi" gentlemen,
unless you have something more to base
your conclusions on.
