city, and have been engaged with the
Secretary of the Treasury in complet-
ing tho papers made necessary by Act
of Congress for the transfer Of the
funds granted for Exposition pur-
poses. Col. Richardson says that
the agricultural exhibit at the Phil
apelphia Centennial did more to adj
vance the interests Of cotton cul-
tivation than any and everything that
had preceded it. The Atlanta Expo
sition gave the cotton interest new
impetus by introducing improved ma
chinery and implements on Southern
plantations. and by the information
it impaired in great variety Of forms
to the planters. In the Exposition to
be held at New Orleans, goods made
in Southern mills will be largely rep
resented. Col. Richardson served in
the group Of judges on cotton textiles
of the Centennial, where he was 90
sociatsd with Mr.. Edward Atkinson,
of Boston, gentleman Of great prac-
teal as we'll as scientific information.
One of the things they both ascer-
taired was that the cotton goods man
ufactured at Lisbon, Portugal, for the
American trade, cost fourteen cents
per yard, while the same fabrics made
in Southern mills cost but eight and
a-half cents. 1t was revelation to
both these gentlemen, and one of
great Importance to the commerce of
the country, but especially to the
Southern spinners. Col. Richardson
SAYS that the introduction of improY-
ed implements and machinery at the
South has enabled the planters to in
crease their acreage of cotton, and at
the same time to reduce the number
of their field hands and their teams.
One consequences of this is that there
is a great surplus of laborers, and one
of the prime needs of the South is
new avenues of employment for them.
He has &C his mills in Mississippi
eight hundred and fifty employees, Of
whom all but one hundred are wo-
men and children. "We have" said
he, "the soil and the climate suited to
the production of this great staple,
and Of all the food needed for domss-
tic consumption, and if we could Sc
cure men of means to occupy the
lands lying idle, and to put them un-
der cultivation, we could enlarge
greatly the area of our productions,
give employment to our surplus la
Dor, and vastly increase the wealth
of our section. The mills and facto-
ries that have been established in our
part Of the country have been uni
formly successful, and there is every
reason to believe that our growth in
this direction will be rapid. We have
not only colored but white labor in
abundance. Fully one-half Of our
white population consists Of poor peo-
pie who would like employment.
Mills located in the cotton belt, whore
fsod of every kind is sold at very low
prices, and where there is no lack
whatever of laborers eager to be en-
| ployed must be successful under pru-
dent management, and as every man
ufacturing establishment started Gre
ates a demand for agricultural pro-
ducts in its vicinity it becomes pow

TIE CAMPAIeN.-It is now pretty
generally conceded that the nomina-
tions Of the democratic party are the
strongest it could have made. With
the exception Of Kelly and q small
portion of his New York following the
party is enthusiastic for the ticket.
The lukewarmness Of portion Of
Tammany is rather beneficial than
otherwise, and is more than compen-
sated by the support Of the large num-
Der of boiling and Independent rspub-
licans who profess to love Cleveland
''most Of all for the enemies he has
made" Moreover, the ticket is repre-
sentative of the young democracy, and
though their enthusiasm alone might
not avail much, it is likely 70 operate
with telling force when joined to the
hard and earnest work that new, live
and energetic men will introduce into
the canvass. AT this stage Of tn.
game, predictions as TO the result, are
rather previous, but it is the genera
opinion of profsased political proph,
cts that the Democratic ticket stands
more than an even chance of winning

Advices received from all quarters
are most encouraging, giving promise
of breaks all along through the Re-
publican lines, while the Democratic
States stand firm and promise increas-
ed majorities. The reported defec-
ton in Tammany is more superficial
than real, and subserves a very good
purpose--it encourages thousands OF
Republicans who are dissatisfied with
machine rule and methods to come
over to the support of Cleveland.
The Independent ranks in Massachu-
sets, New York and Connecticut are
fast being augmented, making it al
ready evident that those States will
be carried for Cleveland and reform.

but as Mr.. Arthur is lukewarm on

believed that there is no truth in the

The INDEPENDENTs.-A special dis

Independent Republican Convention
which met in New York City on the
23rd instant:
The indications are that the most
sanguiae hopes Of the promoters Of
the movement will be far exceeded
Tonight the corridors Of the PRINCIPAL
hotels are alive with the Blaine bolt
ers. Without an exception these men
represent the better element of the
republican party of the sections from
which they come.
The reports which they bring show
that the movement against Blaine in
the republican ranks has been greatly
underestimated. The Massachusetts
men say that the anti Blaine force IA
extending in THEN State.
They estimate that the anti. Blaina
republicans would poll now fully
seven per cent. Of the party vote, and
declare that unless there is an unfore-
seen check to the movement, this will
certainly be doubled before election
day.
They are unanimous in their snthu.
siasm for the democratic ticket. They
say that q third ticket is out Of the

Captain Buck. q member Of The Ex-

Captain Buck, q member Of the Ex-
position building committee, said that
the main building Of the Exposition
would be finished on the 18th OF Sep
TENDER, and that horticultural hall
would be ready by the LIST Of the same
month. He also stated that Signor
Ramon de Ybarrola, the chief engi-
neer Of the Mexican Government, is
now in Pittsburg, Pa, to make con-
tracts there for building Of iron and
glass in which the exhibits from that
Republic will be made. At the same
time force of Mexican gardeners UNI
der the direction of competent chief
were at work at the Exposition Park
constructing an undulating lawn, or
namented with rock beds, and with
various devices known to landscape
gardeners, and that when their work
was finished the plat would contain a
complete representation of the fora Of
Mexico.
Both gentlemen agreed in the state
ment that the people of Louisiana
were only now beginning to realize
the extent and value of the natural
resources of that State. We have,
said Mr.. Buck, within one hundred
miles Of New Orleans, inexhaustible
mines of pure sulphur, and we have
in our State great quantities Of iron
and marble and other minerals Of
value. Massive specimens from these
and complete displays from our splen-
did forests will be contained in the
collective exhibit Of Louisiana, for we
wish the whole world to know what
our undeveloped wealth is, and in
duce some of its enterprising people
to come and share it with US. =. B.

The farmers of the West are in favor
OF a protective tariff on sugar and rice,
We believe that which conduces to
your prosperity will add to ours, even
though we pay few cents per pound
more for our sugar. We also favor
the Improvement of all rivers that
would cheaper transportation, and all
other public improvements that would
be beneficial to part Of or the whole
people.
We also favor an appropriation each
year, say for twenty years, fully ample
to pay for ten months schooling each
year for every child in the Southern
States.
In conclusion l will saYif the South
wishes prosperity let her adopt self
sustaining policy, not only in farming,
but in manufacturing. Her natural
resources in everything excel those of
the North and West. With her Ber-
muda grass, red clover, corn, sweet
potatoes, and short, mild winters, she
can make pork, beef and mutton cheap
/
er than the North. Her early truck
exports North should overbalance in
value any imports from the North and
West, each year. Then, in place Of
crying "tariff robber," which has a
tendency to brighten men and capital
from coming there to start new indus
tries, keep your money at home to
spend among the thousands and hun
dreds of thousands of operatives who
will consume the products of your soil
This will bring you real and lasting
prosperity. But a low tariff at thii
time would certainly blast your pros
pective hopes and place us in position
where we could not render you any
assistance.
