A Meeting Of citizens In Austin
Last Tuesday.


Three gentleman arrived here from
Austin, STunica county, Miss, this
morning to ask aid for overflow suffer;
ers. Their names are r. I. Abbay
D. w. Fly and j. R. Stone, and they
are a Committee appointed at e public
meeting held at Austin last Tuesday
to consider the situation.
The three gentlemen named are au-
thorized to proceed to Jackson, Miss.
to confer with Governor Lowrey; also
to visit Washington City, if necessary
to secure the assistance they need.
The meeting referred to was pre-
sided over by G.. W: Ovens, and a
report summing up the state Of affairs
was made to the meeting by Messrs.
R. F. Abbay, T. w. L. Askew, st
John Waddell, DIV. Fly and j. R.
Stone. Among other things the Com
mittee's report says:
I'VE fud that the levees have
broken from the hills on the Tennes-
see line to Vicksburg, Mississippi, and
that the water is higher now than
ever known before; that the damage to
property cannot be estimated, andthat
the suffering of the poor Of this
county and all othcrs along the river
front is greater than was ever before
known or heard of in the Mississippi
valley.
I'VE find hat families have aban.
doned their houses to inhabit every
available spot of grOun | to be foundi
that a great many arc without any
shelter, and unless food is carried to
them Immediately, that life will be lost
with all the tortures Of starvation.
The river is still rising, and VIC must
have relief at once. While we are
deeply grateful for the SIS, 600 appro-
priated by the State for general relief
in this valley, yet we say that said sp-
preparation is barely sufficient for the
wants Of our neighborhood alone.
I'VE now say to the Legislature Of
this State and to the Congress of the
United States and to the people at
large that we need help in the way of
provisions and clothing, and unless we
are speedily relieved, our sufferings
can only eliminate in death from
starvation and cold.
I'VE advise that depots for relief be
established at Benefits Landing,
Commerce, Austin and Trotter' s
Landing, in this county, for the recep.
tion'of any and all goods and supplies
for the poor of this county, and that
all necessary means be taken to circu-
late this appeal for relief"

Broad street, New York, and a copy

has been prepared with great care from
the most authentic data, and it con-
tains many features Of in

Of East India, Brazil, Egypt and the

what our Merchants Think
About II.

Much interest has been manifested
on the subject of cotton seed by our
merchants within the past few days.
Many fear that the supply for plant
ing purposes will be exceedingly short
and that difficulty is likely to be expe.
rienced to get enough to distribute for
seeding purposes.
One man with a supply near this
city sold all he had two days ago, 500
bushels, at the rate of 35c per bushel
or $23 per ton, the same being pur-
chased exclusively for planting pur-
poses.
Those likely to want seed are look
ing around with a view Of securing
enough to satisfy their needs. The
general opinion expressed by many Is
that the demand is certain to be far in
excess of the supply. Much Of
the seed stored away in pens
among the valley plantations has been
destroyed by the food, and only those
who placed their savings for planting
purposes in ginhouses, the floors Of
which are above overflow, will have
sufficient to plant when then the
waters subside, if it goes ofin time to
admit Of cultivating a crop.
Many planters in the valleys sold off
their surplus seed very close early in
the season. The inducement to this
action was the high price paid by some
of the oil mills farther south and that
price was frequently from SIS to SIS
per ton.
The oil factories Of this city, seven
in number, have an estimated stock of
seed on hand of 1000 tons at the pres
ent time. -Four Of these mills sus4
pended operations a month or more
ago, partly on acsount of the high
water, and partly because the raw
material had run down to a low point.
Three Of the mills still continue the
business of crushing the seed, though
they are not all working full time.
With a view of outstanding re-
sources by checking any further con-
version ofseed into oil and cake at the
mills, the Cotton Exchange here held
a special meeting yesterday to consider
the important subject. Among other
features disclosed at the meeting was
that many in the o~verhowed districts
have been compelled to sell their
seed in order to obtain means
to buy provisions, and the general dis
posal OF so much seed was viewed with
alarm. The matter, after full discus
sion, led to the passage of q resolution
appointing a Committee of three
members Of the Cotton Exchange to
confer with the Cotton Seed Exchange
in regard to the propriety of ceasing
their rindingoperation until such Pc
Rod as the supply remaining on cotton
plantations in the o~verfowed districts
can be ascertained, the Committee to
report at another meeting Of the Cot.
ton Exchange to be held next SSstur-
day. Messrs. j. T. Petit, John S.
Tool and w. n. Brown were appointed
as the Committee.
Several of the cotton seed mill men
who were at the meeting yesterday ex-
pressed themselves very freely in a
private way, and said they would not
continue the work of grinding the
small stock remaining in their mills if
it were needed for planting. They
believe it would result to their disad-
vantage next year, should the seed
supply be reduced too. low to admit
of supplying planters with all
they require for crop growing.

For what Memphis has had resting
upon her in the way of local debt. we
commiserate her; for her woes of other
kinds we are deeply sorry; but can the
rest OF Tennessee allow Memphis to
set the rules as to public obi
cations and public debit The rest Of
Tennessee and the civilized world will
be shocked to have a city which has
spent the last ten years between the
Sheriff and the Legislature, lay down
the rules as to public credit. That
Memphis was sorely burdened, and
more than she could bear, we grant.
that she has bsen sorely tried and
afflicted is true. Grant all, and it
must also be granted, that Memphis is
again prosperous, that her commercial
greatness depends on her maintenance
OF credit, while her past shortcomings
have been largely credited to inability
and affection.
Memphis is no longer under disabil-
tiles. She will sooner restore her.
commercial greatness by shouldering
her financial burdens to the extent Of
her ability, as she did her sanitary
burdens, than by emphasizing her
shortcomings through trying to teach
the State reputation.
Whatever Memphis may have en-
dured, Tennessee nor Mem
phis is now suffering from
poverty or shrinkage. Tennessee
is prosperous and suffers only from
demagogues and croakers; from men
who stand all the day idle, and those
who would use them and their despon-
dency and agrarian ideas to help
them to place. OF these last, those
who try to wear the cloak OF decency
while using the power Of indecency
are the worst.
Tie truth is that this is not the,
view Of Memphis. The silent, conser-
vative business men Of Memphis have,
been too long silent; but they do not.
approve this thin mush policy Of the
Appeal and a few ls-hunting poll.
ticians. Memphis has no ~interey rs
which are not those Of Tennessee. Tfhe
people Of Tennessee will not ALLOW her
decayed press and fossil POLITICAL as and
demagogues to give them the X ev-note
upon finance, public credit ap d public
morals. They have sadly e,lougb dis.
figured Memphis. They must NOT Law
their hands upon Tennessee. Her
virtue must be preserved.
