Childress, both real estate owners in this
city and thorough men of business, propose
to give 5000 each toward the erection of a
cotton mill in this city. Are there not
citizens enough in this city Just as liberal
spirited and enterprising to raise the ncces-
sary capital for cotton factory? A cotton
mill here would bring to our city from / 900
to 1000 additional citizens to the bulk OF
whom it would give employment and
these 1900 or 1000 additional resi-
dents would be worth not less
than, $1,000 TO 500 600 per annu,n to the
retail trade of this city.
The wholesale and jobbing trade of Dallas
is already fixed and assured and what we
want now is something to foster and
strengthen the retail trade. Cotton factories
and other manufactures will do this, and
surely the capita! is here for an investment
that will pay handsome dividend from the
start, and THAT will so materially improve
every interest of the city. Who will be the
first to put the ball in motion? VIII the
Board OF Trade take the initiative?

FINANCE AND COMMERCE.
FINANCIAL.

Mn. JonN NJ. CARSON, clerk of the com +.
nuttee on ways and means. has prepared
! the following analysis of the financial con.
dltlon OF the government for the month of
February:
The reduction in thcrublic debt for Feb.
ruary is $0,7S3,5ll, and'for the eight months
ending yesterday $07 $50 4i3, which is equal
to monthly reduction during the current
fiscal year OF nearly 81, 22j GO. The reduc.
ton Tor the last month is 100000 below
that for February 1881; but the aggregate
reduction for the eight months of tie cnr,
rent ilscal year exceeds that for the CORES
pondlng months of last year by s35, G53 600.
Compared with March, /, 1881, the uggre-
gate OF the public debt, deducting cash in
th me treasury, shows reduction of
Sl30 2S6,6S1. This sum represents the
measure OF reduction in the interest bear
ing debt for the twelve calendar months
ending with yesterday, which amount is
S3O,WO,oOO in excess of the reduction for
the twelve calendar months ending Febru-
airy ~. 1881. The available cash balance
Is Sl53, 1859, an increase of $1l, 225, 900
compared with February |. The current
Liabilities on account of debt on which the
interest has ceased was reduced 81 ,0OO, 900
during the month, the aggregate of this
debt now outstanding, including interest,
being less than $6G0O0,G00 The treasurers
statement Of liabilities and assets shows an
increase for the month in gold coin and
gold bullion of $S6OO,0OO, the amount OIL
this fund now being nearly $l74, 100000.
The standard silver dollars on hand show
an increase of nearly $2,755 600 since Feb |
ruary |. The number of these pieces now
III the treasury is over $75G0,000. Of this |
amount S6OOOO,O00 are covered by out |
standing silver certificates, leaving about
Sl5OOOOOO OF the $75000,000 now in the |
treasury as the property of the govern |
meht' There is no material change since
the last report in the amount of United |
states and national bank notes held by the |
treasurer, which is now $35, 600 900. The
The receipts for February, compared with |
the corresponding months of last year,
show an increase of 100000. The receipts
rom customs exceed those for February.
1851, by S3SOO,000, while those from inter,
nal revenue and miscellaneous sources fell
