 The Sherman act was repealed. The gold standard was lifted up. The despised silver was banishcd from the hints. Colds great ene- my was driven from the field. The effect has been to accelerate the flight of gold. Three times has the government issued bonds to entice the fugitive back to our chores. Ii has increased the per manent debt Of the country s165,- 900, 1000. At last in its desperation 1t placed the treasury under the protection of foreign and domes- tlc syndicate pied 1ed for limited time to protect it against the de- mand of note holders, the consid- eration being a sale to the syndi- cate eff the United States bonds at apout Is cents on the dollar less than their market value. Yet in spite of all these strenuous efforts, the export Of gold has continued and increased. It has been larger since the repeal of the Sherman act than it was before. The amount of gold exports during the past twenty months is unpre- cedented" is statement that mild ly tells the truth of the whole bus mess.
 And what is our situation to. day? The prosperity of the coun- try, the hope of the treasury, is foolishly supposed to hang upon the gracious good will and volun- tary assistance of British syndi. catei There is no pretence that the gold standard will maintain the public credit. There is no sugges- tion any longer that with silver out of the way the government can take care of itself. The cry is that the syndicate will take care of us if we will be good" If there seems to be wavering of ,,b bl;o oo,EJonoa ,bo {raoourx, hnstens 10 proclaim it's unshaken faith that that the "syndl cate does not intend to desert us in the hour of our peril. Nobody even suggests that the poor old United States could keep house on it's own resources.
 In the meanwhile, tho syndicate proclaims that it is under no con. tract to further protect the treasu- ry. That the world may know it's sublime unselfishness 1t makes 1t known that it is acting out of pure pity and charity for helpless government. We read in the dis patches that "uncertainty as to the intention of the bond syndicate" disturbed the market that conf. dence was restored by the assur- ance that the syndicate" was still in merciful mood. Everything depends upon the "syndicate'- our joys, our tears. our faith tri- unph OCT our tears are all with thee" And thus without a blnsh or sign of st anne this great govern ment passed under the pitying protection of a syndicate of En- glish and Wall street bankers.
 Here then are some of the bles- sings and glories we have obtain, ed under the gold standard:
 l. An increase of $l65, ,000, ,000 in our permanent interest bearing debt.
 ?. A decrease equal to $ll7,- 100000 in the per capita circula- ton of money.
 2. A net loss of S120, ,000,000 gold in the last twenty months.
 4. The placing of tho United States treasury under the protec. ton of foreign syndicate.

The Cotton Market.

sational advance in cotton. and middling, on the spot, is now quot ed abovo s cents per pound, ad vancing from 1 l5-16c on Saturday to 8 l.Sc to-day. The market is now 3 Ii cents higher than ii was at the lowest point touched last season. It cannot be denied that the present prico is very good val ue for cotton, ard should the pre- sent crop sell at an average of s cents per pound it would actually represent to the producers more money than WAS realized for the immense crop of last year.
 When one remembers that the present crop was made at smaller cost than was ever known before and thet farmers produced, to a greater extent than usual, such supplies as they consume it will readily be perceived that at ruling prices there will be very good profit for producers, even should prices advance no higher than they now are. The Picayune does not mean by this that the market will not advance further. On the contrary, we believe that it will be pushed very materially higher by the wave oispeculative excitement which has set in. About the only danger in the way of the further advance in prices is the possibility that planters may foolishly hold | back their cotton and be eventual ly compelled to overcrowd the market with it later in the season, and thus inaugurate downward movement, which, once started would be difficult to stem. The proper policy for the producers to pursue would be to market their crops steadily from now on, avoid ing too free shipments, but at the same time refraining from hoard. ing their cotton for higher prices later on.
 Now that foreign spinners have made up their minds that the crop is short they will no doubt purch- ase cotton moro freely. A good demand from Manchester and the continent has been all that was wanting to complete the chain of fay ring circumstances needed to fully establish the permaneney of the advance. Irrespective of the further improvement, it is now generally conceded that for some time at least the advance re- gently established is likely to be maintained. Most people connect ed with the cotton trade look for still higher prices. and should the trade in manufactured goods prove satisfactory it is probable enough that an even higher level than that now existing will be estab- lish ed.
 It is to be hoped that the cotton producers will not forget the les son they have learned from the mark eting of monster crop, which they were compelled to sell for less than the cost of produc- tion. A moderate yield, with the surplus acreage devoted to food crops, will always insure good profit, and the experience of past years shows conclusiveiy that moderate crops have actually sold for more money than the heavy crops. The crop now being mar keted was gro V, with practically no advances from the merchants, producers having made nearly all their own supplies. As result they now find themselves with a fair crop on Ina 'd, worth good prices, and with no debts charged against it. The result will be that the producers will be more pros- porous during the coming winter than they havo been in many years past.-N. o. Picayune.

THE CHURCH AND HUMAN
SLAVERY.

The letter below appeared In the
Naws and Observer a few days ago.
Dr Kilgo is one of the abiest ministers
- in the South. He does
NOT agree with DR.. Thompson but dis
ooroes with him in such a gentlemanly
wov and in such marked contrast to
the average letter writer on this sub
iect, that we print his letter in full:
DURHAM, N. c., Sept. 81.
LditOr Ne,rs and Observer:
You ask me us the church the enc
nv of IbertyY I do not think so. if
we mean the Protestant churches of
to-day. You ask again rs DR.. Thomp
son right in his positions" That de
ponds entirely upon what the Doctor
meant by the church. If he meant the
spirit that dominated the church from
the fifth to the fifteenth century, he is
correct. If he meant that spirit out Of
which has grown PrOte stantlsm, he is
IN error l cannot think that D..
Thompson could have referred to the
spirit that animates the evangelical
churches to-day. l have not had the
pleasure of meeting DR., Thompson, but
he is evidently a man of no ordinary
ability, and | must feel that he is an
honest as we'll az an intelligent man.
He is himself, | believe, a member Of
the church, and certainly if he meant
to be vici US toward the church he
would not remain in it, ard thereby
advance human slavery. Il is very
easy in these days of sensitive political
factions to misunderstood a man, and
to misQuOte him. We all need much
charity in dealing with each other.
DR.. Thompson knows and appreciates
the history of liberty. h has not for
gotten Luther, Hus3, Savonarola, Cal
vim, Kuox, Wesley and Booth, whohave
risen to smite do wp social and political
bondage, and give liberty to the masses.
DR.. Thompson helps tt support the
Christian colleges, Sunday schools,
publishing houses, periodicals, teach
ers, preachers, and all other church
enterprises, and he must appreciate
them as the greatest factors in our
liberty.
lam much opposed. Mr.. E litor, to a
reckless and vicious attack upon the
church. No n claims perfection for
it, but no good can come from an indis
criminate abuse of it. I am not dis
posed TO condemn DR.. Thompson for an
attack not half so malignant as hun
dreds of others that go unnoticed.
EVangelists are to day saying harder
things about tie church and it's minis,
try, and getting good pay for the j0b.
Speakers at college commandments
denounce the courch as narrow, oigot
ed and sectari4n. Men write down
Christian colleges as '~'sectarian fanati-
cism," and occasionally editors dc,
nounce the ministry and charge them
with g~eusuality. All these things have
occurred in North Carolina 10 the past
twelve months, and nothing has been
said against them as vicious and false
attacks on the church of God. Of
them all, Dr.. Thompson is most limo

erroneous attack that the Decor in
