As We think every induosmsnt re-
quIrsd can be offered bY this market,
We give the following very sensible or.
Giele from the Brandon Republican, a
prominent place in our columns: We
have understood that there we're cold In
Vicksburg the past season, over $1,000
bales of cotton. We think that BY
proper exertiOns and cooperation this
count can be more than doubled.
"It is well known that Vlcksburg, be.
fore the war had 9 large trade from
this sectiOn-thAt the cotton passed
through and goods were purchased
there. We believe that much Of this
trade can be restored. It would be our
interest 10 sell our cotton and bny our
goods there, II proper inducements
were offered. Our trade, In fact, has
sought other markets, owing to the
high tariff of charges on the Vicksburg
and Meridian railroad, and the seeming
Indifference Of the merchants there 10
invite our trade. II would be 10 the
interest of both parties II our cotton
was sold there. We would In this
way build up q competing market In
our own State, and thereby increase
the business and add 10 the wealth of
our own State. To encourage this
there must be q superiority OF interests
and benefits. Vicksburg must exhibit
some substantial inducements. We
have heard that cotton was sold for as
much and the charges less there than
in New Orleans. The Vicksburg fac.
tors do not charge brokerage ahd other
items, which 10 done in New Orleans.
"If then the merchants will sell
cheaper or their charges are lighter
than elsewhere sand the railroad will
discriminate in favor of the cotton
sent there for sale and q comparison Of
prices and expenses will be in favor Of
Vicksburg, then our people will as q
matter of interest ship there aud pur.
chase goods. Vicksburg has com.
press, and the cotton could be sent yer
the road TO the seaboArd, and thus the
railroad could get the freight to and
from Vicksburg-a double freight on
the same cotton. We do not see way
the road cannot now compete with
other lines for this freight. 1t sends q
daily train 10 Meridian, and there con.
meets with the Alabama roads, with
the seaboard, and II seems 10 US that II
could transport the cotton as cheaply
and expeditiOusly as any other route
There is much cotton raised in thC
country contiguous TO the road tha
might, by judicious inducements ant
proper exertions, be directed 10 Vicks
burg. This cotton Is now hauled somt
sixty miles 10 some depot on the Mobile
and Ohio road, or New Orleans ant
Chicago road, because the freight Il
lower from there to market than from
the Vicksburg and Meridian Railroad
This trade can be made tributary and
valuable 10 Vicksburg II It solicited
with proper inducements
