2 HE COl TON EXPOSITION.
On last Wednesday, Oct. sth, this
greatest of Southern Fairs was formally
opened to the public. The opening ex
ercises consisted of prayer by IV. Rev.
Bishop Elliott, of Texas; presentation of
buildings and grounds by Director Gen
eral Kimball, and their acceptance, on
the part of the shareholders, by the Pres
ident, Governor Colquitt. Then follow
ed an address of welcome by Hon. Zeb
Vance, of North Carolina, which in fit
ting and eloquent terms extended a cor
•dial greeting to North, East, South and
West; to manufacturers, farmers, mer
chants, lawyers, doctors, rich and poor,
high and low. The address was well re
ceived by the vast audience. The next
speaker was the Hon. Dan. W. Vorhees,
■of Indiana, who might be called the ora
tor of the day, in response to the address
of welcome. Mr. Vorhees had evidently
■expended much care and extended re
search in the preparation of his address,
which comprised a history of the growth
and manufacture of cotton in this coun
try. showing the almost magical changes
and improvements that have been
wrought in less than one hundred years,
and the infinite advance over the slow
and laborious proceses of manufacture
that have prevailed in the East for thou
sands of years. The address tnough long,
and perhaps tiresome to a few, was lis
tened to with profound attention from
first to last. The speaker took occasion
to express his conviction, that in the not
■distant future, the South would be a
great manufacturing section; and that
un the now infancy of manufacturing en
terprises, the General Government
should extend such protection as was
given to Northern manufactures in years
gone by. This sentiment was received
with great satisfaction and hearty ap
plause. We trust that the entire address
'Will be printed in.pamphlet form for gen
eral distribution.
The several speeches were nicely sand
wiched with delighful music by the sth
Artillery band, and the whole conclud
ed by the “Hallelujah Chorus,” render
ed by 800 voices under the direction of
Mr. C. M. Cady, assisted by the band,
■ aud emphasised by discharges of artil
lery at the proper places. The perform
ance seemed to give great satisfaction to
<the audience—in fact was the most gen
erally enjoyed feature of the occasion.
The vast throng, as by one impulse, rose
■to their feet as the chorus began, and
listened with rapture until its conclu
sion.
The officials and high dignitaries fol
lowed by the popular concourse, then
proceeded to the centre of the main buil
ding, where were located the several
huge engines, and at a given signal the
steam-cocks were opened and the “ma
■chinery put in motion.” But we listened
in vain for the whir of the spinning jen
nies and the clatter the looms I In fact
not a single machine was attached or
■ready to run, but the long line of shaft
ing with their polished pulleys turned
udly and silently. The “grand rounds”
were then made through the long exten
ded building, but little was to be seen
that could be understood by the, mere
casual observer. The workmen were
'busy plying saw and hammer, paint
■brush and tinsel, and putting machines
together. The whole furnished a striking
dllustrafon of the meaning of the words
“not ready.” The main bailing was fully
prepared and ready for the exhibits, but
the exhibitors, as is invariably the case,
were behind time. We are informed
dhat the great. Centennial was no nearer
■ready for the public than the Cotton
/Exposition. Judging from what we
■ could see, however, we think that the
Exposition will be successful, and far
superior to anything of the kind ever
seen in South. By the time this article
■is read by the readers of The Index,
•everything will probably‘be in apple pie
■order and the show will be well worth
coming many miles to see. The agri
cultural feature of the Exposition—so
‘far as agriculture is illustrated by the
garnered products of the field and gar
den will not become prominent until
■ about the first of November, about which
time a succession of special weekly ex
hibits will be inaugurated, as follows:
October 25th to October 29th will I e
■ devoted to fruits, flowers, and ornamen-
tal plants. The entries for these exhib
its will close on October 21st, at 5 p. m.
.November Ist, to cattle and mules ; en
tries close October 26th. November Bth
to 12th, sheep and swine ; entries close
November 2nd. November 15th to 19th
dogs- entries close November 9th. No
vember 22nd to 26th, poultry and fur
bearing pets; entries close November
;16th. November 29th to December 3rd,
dairy products ; entries close November
23rd. , ,
By observing the time for these special
weekly exhibits transient visitors may
select the time for a visit in accordance
■with their respective tastes.
MONEY FOR FARMERS.
We confess to a-feeling of some dis
trust and concern when we consider the
schemes that are being inaugurated in
the South, and particularly in Georgia,
for loaning money to farmers upon the
pledge of their farms. T t is not so much
a doubt of the motives of the originators
of these loan agencies that we feel, as of
fear that the intended beneficiaries—the
farmers —will not make a proper and
(temperate use of the advantages offered.
The prevailing idea seems to be that
farmers are oppressed, or impoverished
by high rates of interest and extravagant
credit prices for supplies bought, and
• that if they be furnished with money at
’ moderate rates and on a long time, they
will work clear of the embarrassments of
- debt and.be well started on a career of
prosperity. We believe that this result
is possible, that many will prudently
avail themselves of the help offered and
work out their salvation from debt; but
it is to be feared that a large number will
continue an unwise speculative system
of farming, and that when pay day ar
rives they wilk-be in no wise better, ex
cept in the postponment of the evil—a
temporary relief from the pressure of
debt. Many of our most sagacious men
and among them some of our most suc
cessful farmers, believe that the habits
of thought and action, and his segregated
manner of life, unfits a farmer for engag
ing in transactions of loans and mortgag
es with the sharp, shrewd bankers and
brokers, whose business it is to study the
powers of cent per cent., and. the subtle
ties of mortgage liens and title deeds ana
such like. Long credits are not in their
nature conducive to prompt payments,
and are likely to lull the borrower into
THE CHRISTIAN INDEX AND SOUTH-WESTERN BAPTIST: THURSDAY, OCTOBER 13, 1881.
a sense of relief that may prove fatal to
wise and present economy that is felt to
be necessary when pay day is only a few
months off. Os all men in the world a
farmer should be a “pay as you go”
man; not by borrowing the money to
pay with—though that is generally bet
ter than buying on credit —but by
selling for the money and paying cash
for goods purchased. JThe true theory of
farming is the producing of food and
clothing for himself and family, and sus
tenance for his animals, directly from
the soil itself - so far as praticable.
We would therefore utter a caution to
beware of loans on longtime for carrying
on the ordinary operations of the farm.
The labors of the farm ought to be self
sustaining—each year for itself, and it is
not safe to borrow a considerable sum of
money on such long time that the “end
may not be seen from the beginning.”
The fact is that high rates of interest
and credit, aie not the cause of the em
barrassments of farmers, but are, in a
great measure, the result of those em
barrassments. There are thousands of
farmers in the South, who, in the prac
tice of their present system of farmin?,
would not succeed if their supplies of
corn, hay, bacon, lard, mules, etc, were
furnished them on a credit at cash prices.
If this proposition be true, then how
will such farmers be benefited by loans
of money with which to pay cash for
such supplies, and interest on the money
at a future day ? We may be unduly
alarmed, but we fear that some of the
farmers in signing mortgages may as well
sign a fee simple deed to their lands.
THE SOLID SOUTH.
We have just finished a hasty perusal
of an article in the International Review
for October, entitled “Mr. Atkinson on
the Solid South,” by Rev. Dr. W. E.
Boggs, of Atlanta. It will be remem
bered by some of our readers that the
March number of the above mentioned
periodical contained a very illadvised,
dlmannered,and unjust attack upon the
humanity, honor and chivalry of the
“Solid South.” Dr. Boggs, in his review,
is very mild and good tempered, and
charitable beyond virtue to tne motives
of Mr. Atkinson. As a reply to the tis
sue of slanders, and illnatured, holier
than thou reproaches of Mr. Atkinson, it
is unanswerable in its facts and argu
ments, as well as monumental in pa
tience and forbearance. We may be
wrong, but we think such attacks upon
the Christian character, honor, and hu
manity of our venerable fathers and
mothers—living and dead -ought to be
treated either with silent contempt or
met with merited and scathing rebuke.
If to be a member in good standing of
the body politic of the “New South,”
implies’that we are to dishonor sacred
memories, confess that we lived a life of
lying and hypocrisy up to the advent of
the “New Era,” and that we were a race
of dishonored and dishonest barbarians
because of our support of the system of
slavery, then we wish to be “counted
out”—now and always. Wewilltakea
back seat in the car of progress, before
we will sit with such traducers of our sa
cred loved and lost. We believe slavery
was right and ordained of God. We be
lieve that it was in accordance with His
inscrutable will that it should termi
nate. We do not regret it—only the di re
calamities of bloodshed that preceded its
extinction, and the poverty and suffer
ing that have followed it since the war.
Mr. Atkinson and his kind, will not be
likely to receive a c rdial welcome from
true Southern people until he retracts these
almost unpardonable accusations; cer
tainly not, unless memory shall cease to
carry us back to the peaceful days of yore,
when happiness and contentment, com
fort and plenty, both among whites and
blacks prevailed, and when an honor and
chivalry ruled that is not to be found in
the article of Mr. Atkinson—an honor,
not illustrated by the duello, but by a
profound regard for the rights and opin
ions of others, and a chivalry that has
always found its noblest examplars
among the Southern people.
