Reduce the Acreage.

We have received 8 circular letter from
the firm Of W. S. Howard g. Co., Of Ia
zelhurst, Miss, dated October 10Th,
which is addressed "To the Southern
Farmers" by way Of an appeal, and from
which we make the following abstracts :
"Pardou us for addressing you. Our
apology is cur profound soliciludc for
your welfare. Not only ihe merchants
arc interested in your success, but every
class of people, from the banker 10 the
fruit dealtr, must confess that the success,
in u grea: measure, Of our country de
peuds on its agricultural prosperity.
"When our fields yie.d their increase,

the financial world. He should be the
most independent man in The world. But
can We lock at the mortgage on the farms
and the condition of The farmer, without
asking: What is the matter with our far.
mers?
"Many of our farmers are unaole to
meet their debts. They have hoped
against hope. No one, with any degree
of truth, Gun say this condition has been
brought about BY lack of energy. No
class of people work harder, use as much
economy and have less. The farmers
economy often amounts to sacrifice,
that be may keep his head above water.
Is there no hope for the Southern far
merS? We think there is remedy. We
desire to emphasize what we regard as
the cause which has brought about such
a condition. THE price of cotton is
below the cost Of production,' and to the
farmer this means s!agnation and agri.
cultural death.
"The question presents itself-and it is
the question above all questions for the
Southern farmer: How can we raise the
price of cotton to living basis?
"The reason cotton is selling below the
cost of production is found in the fact
that the production in 1890 was greater
than the consumption. The world could
not consume what was raised last year.
"The remedy we think, is to reduce
production by the reduction of acreage.
Let all farmers combine and say that in
1892 they will plant one third less cotton
than in 1891.
"Let the farmers rsllyiug cry for 1892
be one-third less acreage iu cotton and
better prices for same! The farmer will
then have time to change his meat mar
ket from Chicago to his own place, and
his corn crib will be found at home
instead of the West.
"Let every farmer sign q written con-
tract to plant in 1892 one-third less
acreage in cotton than 1891. This plan,
we are sure, will give you time to raise
other products than cotton, and move the
price OF cotton from 7 and ccr.s to 10
and II cents in 1892.
"We ask our commission merchants in
New Orleans, Galveston and other great
cotton centres to help US to assist the
farmers in this movement, and thereby
raise the price of cotton above the cost Of
production"
This letter gives us really true pic.
ture of the farming interests in the cotton

to remedial recovery from the prostra

tIoH Silver is Used in CEiina.

Another interesting result Of introduc
ing activity into slow going, deadalive
community WIS shown in marketing our
silver. Our operations required the
monthly payment Of a large sum. The
effect was to make silver comparatively
plentiful in frontier region where it had
been comparatively scarce. The few
hundred thousand dollars we psid out
increased the visible supply" of silver
in the market towns very materially.
When I went to Mongolia VIC sod n tael
Ia Chinese ounce of silver for more than
9,4OO copper cash. When J left we had
to take less than 8, 100 cash for it. This
falling off in the purchasing value Of sill.
yer is an evidence of the very limited
extent of the commercial transactions of
that country and of the readiness with
which local plethora or deficiency can be
brought about in community chat has
no other mode of exchange than the
movement of silver bullion by carts
Silver is not currency in China. 1t is
bullion sold by weight at whatever
exchange rate may rule from day to day
The currency is really the copper cash.
We sent our silver bullion to the market
town and there sold ii for copper cash
and notes of local bank. Theao notes
were currency, of course, but they had
only local use aud were not unlike the
notes of the "wildcat" banks formerly
known in America. The copper cash had
the value of l 25 of gold cent or the
1-40 of silver cent. One hundred dol
lars' worth would load a mule heartily.
Cash arc tied up in "strings" OF 250
coins, each coin representing 2 cgsh.
The strings break frequently and the
Acor of the bullion vault was always lit
tered with piles of loose cash.
Gu one occasion we failed to mako
preparation of cash for paying off in tire
to meet the exigercies of an important
feast which was nearly coincident "itl
pay day. I had cake of bullion fresh
from tho furnace cut up into small pieces
and the pieces sent to the native re6ner
TO be made into small cakes of about five
ounces each. These were cut into halves,
quarters, eighths and other divisions.
Some were beaten out on tho anvil aud
cut into chicken faed," or pieces about
the size of corn. With thia assortment,
good pulp balance and Chinese weights
every piece was weighed and its value
calculated at the rate of exchange then
current. In this way We paid about 200
men daily. The men liked the plan,
though the shop-kecpsrs, to whom ali OF
them owed something reaped a harvest
of "-queszes" or petty deductions, but
there was relief from The uncertain value

old, but already noted for his eccentric
theological and political views, The
young and beautiful Countess, who is
an accomplished horsewoman and popu
lar in society, charges her husband
with extraordinary cruelty and ,ill-treat'
ment.
Sir Edward Clarke Solicitor General,
appeared for the Countess, and Sil
Charles Russell for the Earl The petit.
tion alleges that since their marriage
in February, 1890, the Countess had

Says the Company is a Fraud.

LoCKPoRT, N. Y, Dec. 2.-The Inter.
national Banking Company, of New
York, is alleged by persons who have
invested in it to be a fraud. The COM
pany had agents throughout the State,
who induced investors to pay So a
month for 20 MONTHS when they would
receive three foreign bonds holding an
interest in the company. These bonds
were lottery bonds and If the right mum
Der was drawn it would pay the in
Yestor big premium. The concern now
offers to settle with its victims, giving
$25 where 500 has been paid in. Grim
inal and civil proceedings will be taken
against the company, and the United
States Commissioner here is about tc
investigate charges of violation of th'
anti-lottely laws.

port of r. G. Mendenthall, Chief of the

vey, concerning the Indiana Ohio bound

terday. Ohio has disputed the correct
ness of the Indiana line, claiming that
it was too far east of its proper place a t
the northern extremity of the State
The survey OF Prof. Mendenthall and
assistants shows that t is one m lie east
of its proper place at that point, and
converging to the proper point at the

BUFFALo's BLOCKADE

The Situation Grows Worse Each Day
Vessels Cannot Get Into the Barbor.
BUFFALO, N. Y, Dec. S-The grain
blockade in this port rather grows
worse than otherwise day by day, as
regards the number OF vessels here, but
the tug men are working hard and are
handling the situation better than they
did at first. Though they are obliged to
undertake almost impossible tasks aud
consume unheard of amounts of time
in shifting vessels, they are still able to
get about the harbOr in some fashion.
BY actual count there were about 80
vessels Yesterday lying at the mouth of
the creek. They were slowed in three
deep and in any shape to dispose of
their cargo Their are about 25 vessels
in the outer harbor unable to get in.
The Custom House people are full OF
business with the Canadian wheat that
comes here in bond bound through to
Europe, There is now over 1000, 900
bushels of it, and 500, 900 bushels more
of it is known to be bound here.

ST. LOUIS, No, Dec, 2.-The robbery
of the Adams Express Company's car
on the St. Louis and San Fran cisco
Railroad Monday night was ono of the
boldest affairs Of the kind on record, and
recalls the feAts Of the James boys. The
express company is out about 500 600
The officials say that the messenger is
laid up at Springfield, Mo-, unable to
move on account of his wounds, and the
robbers have apparently dropped into
the earth for not the slightest clue has
been obtained
The train, which was the through
California express left the Union depot
at 8 o'clock. At Old Orchard, a su-
burbsn village just outside the city linn
its, four men boarded the train, two
climbing on to the front end Of the
postal and baggage cars. The two on
the front climbed over, the water tank
and tender and presented rovolvsrs at
the heads of the engineer and fireman.
They ordered the train stopped abou {
20 car lengths east of the overhead
bridge at Glendale, where they were
met by the other two robbers.
After the train was stopped the four
robbers were joined by two more, who
had been waiting at the side of the
track. Then the indiscriminate firing
began At the same time a demand was
made on Messenger j. 7. MulrenRu to
open the door, He refused, and with
out further parley the robbers placed a
dynamite cartridge in a crevce of the
door or under it and touched the fuse
The east end OF the car was blown off
and Mulreuan surrendered. Mulreuan
was badly injure by the explosion.
After emptying the safe and taking
the messengers gold watch the robbers
quickly departed The express company
has a large force of men on the case,
but so far no clue has been found The
loss is estimated at $50, O00 but it may
be great deal more,
