THE NEW SOUTH.

MY recent visit to the Southland
gave me one of the glad surprises OF
my life. I may. as well confess that
I was expecting to see WORKOUT coun'
try, dilapidated touwns, and an
easy-goiDg, somewhat discouraged
people. l have read of the devastation
of the war, and the ruin of the carp
ct bag rule, and I expected to see the
evidences of the bad effects of both
on every hand. Of course, lam we'll
quainted with the South-w, its marv-
elous resources, rapid progress and
aggressive people. and 1 have often
visited Mississippi and Louisiana, but
Southern Georgia and South Carolina
we're new region to me.
I have never seen neach orchards in
California. that will compare with
those of Geogia. This is true only in
the matter OF acreage. Tie vast fields
in beautiful young peach trees, care
fully cultivated as corn, were beauti-
iful to behold. George peaches are un-
surpassed in beauty and flavor, and
are convenient to the great cities. Her
fuits, melons. aud early vegetable are
becoming source of immease income
to the people.
In South Carolina We found a de-
lightful climate, beautiful country,
and a superior people. Every town
and city we saw gave evidence of pro.
sperity. There were fine business
houses, beautiful homes, and smoking
factories in every direction. The
Carolinas are fast coming to the front
as manufacturing States, in the way
of all sorts of cotton fabrscs. South
Carolina is said to have IA, 900, 900 acres
of unoccupied laads. She has estab-
lished an emigrant agency in New
York City, and will seek to induce de-
sirable emigration southwark
With the opening up of the great
canal it may come to be said, '"South-
ward the course of empire takes its
way" There are many people who
are not aware of the fact that New Or
leans, as an export city, stands next to
New York, and Galveston, Texas
stands third on the list. 1t is hard to
realize that there are only two cities in
this great nation that ship more goods
to foreign ports than Galveston, Texas.
When the new canal is opened the ex-
ports from these cities will be greatly
increased.-Rev. H. G. Morrison in

The Price OF Cotton.
Greenville News

Eleven cents has been agreed upon by the
Southe ern Cotton Association as the mini
mum price below which the farmers mutu
ally promise not 10 place their cotton on the
market. We must take 1t for granted thai
thei committee, composed OF one delega te
from zach OF the cotton producing States
was prepared and authorised TO speak for the
people, and we must grant, even II for the
firm and that they will abide by the agree
ment. The world is apt TO scoff at the thought
OF having the price OF the stsple fixed by q
dozen men. At the same time, however, the
association has earned It's spurs. II has
proved that II is power In counteraciing the
efforts OF the bears TO depress the market, and
oy the ereduction OF acreage and the oonse-
quent obligation not 70 sell at starvation
figures, the organization can become an
agency OF tremendous influence and impor.
tance. We are inclined TO believe that Presi.
dent E. D. Smith. of South Carolina, suggest.
ed the most seusibe policy. Like all OF US
Mr.. Smith naturally wants the farmer to re-
ceive the best possible price, but being prac-
tical, he was impressed with the conviction
that II WAS unwise TO endorse the views ol
rampant bulls who were unconsciously In.
tent upon running the organization by de-
manding that which could not be secured
He was the cL1servative force in the com.
mitlee room. He urged that ten and one
cents per pound be adopted as the minimum
with higher rate later in the season. He
took that stand because he found that the
spectators were endeavering to have twelve
cents or more decided upon, and because he
knew that the aim OF the speculators IN ad
vocating II was unQuestionably based upon
the hope that II would eventually mean
failure and failure which would
utterly break the effectiveness and staying
qualities OF the association and It's memb bers
Having acted in unison, the farmers mus,
do their part. They must stick. They mus,
stand by the eleven cent guns, for Il

their product. Ignoring the agreement, the
reap harvest and one which will cause a.
nancal distress In the South. II we are to
believe that the new crop will be short, while
the world is crying for the raw material, We
we ought to find com fort in the thought thai
higher prices will prevail and that eleven
cents will indeed be the minimum. Still, |,

the thing is not 30 simple as that. Never

association without break the resolution tc
hold cotton for eleven cents may have prac

lICENTS FOR COTTON.
Association Fixes that AZ Minimum
Figure.

Asheville. Sept. S-The Southern Cotton
association has fixed II cents as the mini.
mum price at which the present crop shall be
sold locally In the South.
The special com N tttee spent many hours IN
attempting to reach All agreement and II was
not until 10 o'clock last night that 1t finally
announced Itself ready TO report. The COD.
vention no sooner received the report Than II
adopted II without discussion.
The work here Is not yet over and 1t will
likely be Saturday before the delegates leave
for their homes as a trip to Waynesville and
other points is contemplated.
II Is generally thought here that the report
ofthe committee was compromise. 1t is
we'll known that many OF the delegates were
for Axing II cents as the minimum, while
the more conservative element favored 10
cents. Still large number thought II cents
the proper figure and that element seems TO
have prevailed in the end. The figures mean
that cotton Is not to be sold with the consent
OF the association at anything under II cents
on any local market.
The summary OF the cotton crop as reported
by the statistical com mit'ee OF the Southern
Cotton Growers association, reported today
a. follows:
Production, s5SS,13S bales; condition as
compared with last year, 1873, as com pared
