Vicksburg Post.l


The following circular has been re-
ceived by US from II. & B. Beer, rs
Baronne street, New Orleans. 1t en-
phasizes the importance, the Decessi;y,
OF Southern planters and farmers pro-
ducing their own food crops. 1t will
not be wise TO undertake 10 purchase
c2rn, bacon, bay, etc., with the pro-
ceeds of low priced cotton. But let
the Southern agriculturis:s raise full
supplies of bread, meat, etc, and then
go into the fight for cotton suprema-
cy with the determination to stay the
longest, as suggested by Prof Stubbs;
OFFICE OF BEER, CowELL Il Co, !
LIVERPOOL, Feb. is, 1895.
Our market continues in the same
heavy condition, and the free selling
oil new crops at about s Lie to s 1-Sd
equivalent to about 4 cents on planta-
tions), has been more pronounced
since the publication of an article In
the Liverpool Post, of February /,
quoting the speech Of Judge J. q.
Egan, of Red River parish, La, before
the recent Shreveport Convention, in
which he declared that cotton had
been and could be prefitably raised at
the present low prices ruling.
SO, with the huge supply before Us,
all reports Of decreased acreage dis
credited, and the general belief that
another enormous crop will be planted
and very low prices prevail, 1t would
certainly be very deplorable II no ma
terial reduction in the cotton area
should occur, particularly considering
the decentralization that now exist'
here, and the aggressive disposition tc
sell cotton for next seasons delivery
Another important factor that 1t Il
well not to overlook Is that, on &C
count OF Russia's increased duty Oh
cotton, that country cannot be expect
ed to assist the market next fall, b,
buying 100000 or 100000 bales o
American cotton, as she did last Sep
tember, October spd November.

POLITICAL CsMPLEIIFY.

The Memphis Scimitar says that
"the reputation Democrats have out
bid their old enemies (the Republieans)
at the auction Of Pepulist votes, and
there is nothing to prevent them and
their purchased allies from pulling
amicably in double harness in 49,
This conclusion is not altogether just
ifed. In North Carolins for instance
The Republicans were not much "out-
bid" fhay not only pulled out one
OF the L. ;. Senators in the divide,
but IN srcuring the enactment of the
election Law MS stated in the following,
they effect mocratic displacement

The moons light has been found to
be about three hundred thousand times
less than that of the sun, and, accord
ing to Prof. Young, sky completely
covered with full moons would give
only one eighth of the light we get
from the sun. II thus seems improba-
bic that the moon has any appreciable
meteorological influence. M. Camille
Clammarion, the astronomer, says :
"The luminous or caloric action Of our
satellite Is so feeble that IL by no means
explains the popular projudices' The
moon is not doisg its duty. The lover
gives 1t tatly, and sweotly sings: "Koll
on, silver moon!' The lover does not
want much hight. II there is brilliant
gas in the parlor be will turn 1t down,
Aud so the lazy moon cuts up shines,
In halves, and quarters, aud gets full,
and then reforms and pretends to be
new moon. The sun always works,
but the moon shirks and stays out
nights.

A story comes from Philadelphia
concerning good old Methodist lady
attending service in a suburban Epls'

happy under the preaching of the

the old lady becoming very happy ana

Foreign views or American Finance.

The London Times says. "The
Uuited States loan has been too great
success, for there is danger that II
may encourage Americans TO think
there was not, after all, any need OF
alarm for the position of the Treasury
three weeks ago and there Is no neces.
sily to.rcform the currency.
"The Success Of the loan ought not
TO blind anyone to the fact that the
loan was a necessary expediont to gain
time TO carry out reforms, and was not
the reform itself. II is no permanent
remedy for the maledy from which the
Treasury suffers. We hope that the
iew months security now assured will
be used by the Executive aud Congress
to place the currency system of the
United States on q sound basis. For
this purpose the withdrawal ofa large
part, If not the whole, of the outstand-
ing greenbacks is an essential prelimi.
nary"
The Statist, in an article on the new
United States loan, says; "United
States bonds, running thirty years and
yielding 3 l-2 per cent, are an exceed
ingly good Investment, aud will, with
out doubt, be eagerly sought for II
London and on the continent, bu
they will not put an end to the crisis
The new Congress will not be likely

President Cleveland will not borrow

creditors, but will pay gold, though IL
domestic currency is silver, the sam,

my Dear Sir: Your letter of the
2ist instant Is received. Iu answer
thereto, permit me to say sm under
the profound conviction that the pres
ent condition Of the Treasury reserve
aud liberal accumulations of idle
money in New York afford together a
new opportunity for you to exercise
the discretion conferred OH you by
law to pay oil checks at the bank Of
which yeu are president In standard
silver dollars. If you should pursue
this course for reasonable time the
achievement will be IN all details and
In every respect happy one. On the
other hand, if you should neglect this
opportunity, the neglect may prove
one more just ground for fault finding
with those financiers who preach one
doctrine and practice another.
