Cotton and Money.

Editor Constituton-Thcre is a mistaken
idea with many that The present price Of
cotton at cents Is Il resumption Of ante
bellum conditions, and that the country
Will have to be content Herewith. That
nasmuCh as our fathers were subjected to
such low and ruinous prices, we must be
satisfied with ana cent cotton uncom-
plainingly and that all VIII be well if the
people VIII be COntcnted, have confidence,
live economically and keep out Of debt.
Now if all this was true; if the southern
farmer before the W2r received only and
. cents for his cotton, and was cOntcntcd,
happy and prosperous, then we their de
scendaEts might do likewise. and be just
~ rebuked for growing: 5ut such Is not
true, and people can hardly be Blamed
for crying out at such a calamity What
the facts as to the history of cotton
and prices? 1t will doubtless surprise many
to hear that the average price in New York
tlCm 1901 to 1890 was 1915 cents per pound.
The avorfee prices for each decade of the
100 years follows:
First decade, 1891 to 800. 33.S0 cents
Second decade, 1901 to 1910, 2l.95 cents.
Tnird decade 1911 to 1920, $3.50 cents.
Fourth decade 1921 10 1880, 1880 cents.
Fifth decade, 1871 to 1870 $50 124o cents
Sixth decade, lsil to 1850 $50 cents.
Seventh decade. 1851 to 1860. 11.30 cents.
Eighth decade, 1861 to 1870, 4l.S9 cents.
Ninth decade 1871 to 1850, 1895 cents.
Tenth decade 1881 to 1890, 10. cents,
The average pric" in 1890 was I1.53 cents,
and the lowest price lo4 cents, as reported
by The Journal of Commerce. The CROP
that year was 1852 5g7 bales or at $50
pounds equals 4.32G 29S 100 pounds, and a
II - cents equals s4gS. $22 III The present
crop although larger. will bring only about
half as much us the crop OF 1870. WIN
