COTTON FACTORIES.

All, who are convinced that the
devotion to cotton planting to the
exclusion of all other pursuits, is
bringing the Southern planter to
penury should welcome the asitH'
ton for bringing the factory nearer
the field, This has long beeA advO.
Gated by thinking mcn.Such a sep"'
ration between the raW product
and the mandatory as exists be-
tween the cotton field and the cot.
ton factory is not seen in relation to
any other great commercial pro-
duct. The -four mills are mostly
located near the wheat fields, the
vast manufactures Ofmetal near the
mines, but the cotton planter-hrst
iutrenched behind slave labor, and
later upheld by post beIlum prices
for the raw staple, and even later,
amid falling PRICES, blinded. by AIS
own fatuity and conservatism-has
permitted the old order Of things to
continue; and the middle men and

CREDIT vs. CASH.

The newspaper theOrist and the
speakers at agricultural societies
arc wont to deride the utter foolish
ness of tho farmer il sticking to all
cotton, And not without some
reason. But the fault does not lie
altogether at the farmers door, but
in the conditions, which make it i'm
possible for him to get supplies on
any product except cotton. In turn,
the country merchant pledges cot
ton to the commission merchant, for
necessary advances,the latter wants
cotton and nothing but cotton for
his operations, anti so it goes on,
with the result that each is DEEPEN
deat OH the other, like links OF 4
chain, and the chain itself binds the
planter hand and foot.
IL is useless to expect any thing
else while the credit system con.

one season, without credit, he would
be in u better position to escape
from his letters. The distressing
economic conditions, this seaS1n,
seem to be forcing him, willingly
or not, to do without credit. II

But another conversion is nced9d
Say what you will, tho country
merchant needs to be weaned from
tie credit system and its appar'
antly large profits. The accounts
looks well-On paper. Az one of

farmer can DO his part towArd
