Running Newspaper* In Ilnrd Time
Nqt$sk is more difficult than that of
“runing a newspaper” when there is a com
plaint of scarcity of money, and the reason
is obvious. "When a man owes fifty or a
hundred dollars, he feels it to be an Imper
ative duty to pay the debt—he will take
any amount of trouble to do so—but when
it is only two, four, six or eight, ho thinks
so small an nmouut as that is of no impor
tance to his creditor, and consequently neg
lects paying —forgetting that two or three
thousand of these small claims amount to a
large aggregate.
The fnctis, newspapers ought never to be
published on credit. Every one of them,
from the greatest to the smallest, ought to
adopi the cash system. It will not only
save the proprietors untold trouble, but it
will be infinitely better for subscribers. A
man can reed a paper with much greater
satisfaction when ho has paid for it.
Perfect Independence.
All the South needs to make it the most
■juadt’af prv.r n.T-rny .loan thn
face of tie earth, is to put every body to
work at some useful employment—raise
our own supplies, and instead of sending
cotton money offfor whatcan better be made
at home, invest it in cotton factories—thus
supplying the markets of tho world with
the manufactured article instead of the raw
material.
This is the whole matter in a nutshell
and whenever the South carries out this
programme, it will become the most pros
perous country on earth. This cannot all
bo done in a day, but we can at once com
mence preparing for it, and the sooner the
work is begun tho earlier it will be con
summated.
Georgia is an empire'within herself, and
can grow and manufacture everything she
has use for, except coffee—so great is the
extent and variety of her soil and climate
She could take the lead in the great reform
Whatever may have been tho best policy in
slavery times, it is very clearly the inter
est of the Southern people to look now to
diversified labor as the road to wealth and
independence.

We spent Friday and Saturday of last
week in this delightful city—charming at
this season of the year aud during the
Winter months, but a trifle too warm in
Summer. Among its many attractions, Au

cost at first hands.
A STAKTUHQ FACT.
Reporter—What, then, are these non-
self-supporting people to dot How are
they to live?
Gen. A.—They must be taken care of by
tho public. I was told that there are a
million and a half of people in the New
England States and New York who will
have to be taken care of by the people of
the country this winter, as they have no
means of a livelihood except their labor,
and for that there is and will be no demand.
Besides all this the city debt of New York
is $137,000,000, the result of which is high
taxation. Property is valued at two-thirds
its cost, and upon this there is a city tax
in New York city of three per cent., making
tho property value less to a great extent.
Any one can forecast the result of this state
of affairs. As I tell you, they must come
down into the basement and climb up again.
They will, as I told one of the leading men
have to see hard times just as we did.
They have been doing business since tho
war upon tho inflation which is brought
about. They found themselves with three
thousand millions of dollars more money,
in greenbacks and bonds, than they ha< 1
before, all our negro property and wealth
being lost to us and thus gained to them
But they have lost all their war fortunes,
real estate has fallen from fancy figures
and they are now compelled to come down
to “ hard pan” in everything.
THEIR DEPENDENCE.
Reporter—Are they not expecting a re
vival of trade this winter!
Gen. A.—They are depending on the
West and South to. bring in some trade.
Thoy calculate $$ jget our ..cotton cheap.
Goods are noff"cheaper than when cotton
was from 5 to 6 cents per pound. If they
cannot sell the goods they make they caunot
pay big prices for cotton, and they think
that the price of this crop will go down to
10 cents. Contracts are made now to de
liver cotton there in November for from 121
to 121 cents per pound. Last year we
made upwards of four million bags of cot
ton and yet the people can’t consume all
the goods made Matters will not be bet
tered much by the present crop.
Reporter—The South will not feel the ef
fects very seriously, will it!
Gen. A.—No, for we are better off to-day
than the North. They have their paupers
and their people out of work, and must
provide for them. We are an agricultural
people and produce, by which, if a man has
anything made he can sell it. If he has it,
there’s a market price for it. Such people
are always safe, but those who eannotmake
and hence have nothing to sell must suffer.
They must steal, commit crime, or be pro
vided for by public charity. We have pro
duced that which is staple and there
plenty of money to buy it, and wo will sell
and profit by our industry. Our prosperity
is measured only by our industry. This
you may rely upon as an axiom to tho
Southern people.
ABOUT DOME MATTERS.
Reporter—What do you think, General of
our home out-look.
Gen. A.—Our condition is .in every way
promising. We aro far better off than the
Northern people, all things considered. Our
Georgia 7 per cent, bonds aro commanding
par in New York to-day. We owe less
money than almost any other set of people
in the Union and made our crops this year
with 50 per cent, less money than in any
year since the war. What we want to do
ta simply to practice economy , husband our
•sources and develop our industries. I
jn’t think the South has anything to fear
oi tho prostration and panics hv^
| we’ll sell all we produce, wij
/1 qj;-U«w. prices makes little

.■ would soon find its way to those
./no had a surplus to give it What is the
use of and idle fellow lounging around with
hands in his pockets, without a thing in
the world to sell, but who buys his very
axe handle and his cabbage from the North
and abusing Eastern capitalists from grab
bing all the currency! Let him raise a bale
of Cotton, and see if he don’t rob that Yan
kee of some of his ill-gotten gains! lot
him grow his own pork, flour, com and hay.
and see if that bloated bondholder don’t
have to sell out! To give you some idea
of our condition as to capital, I would refer
you to two or threepoints in our State. In
Charlotte, which is the biggest town of its
size iu the United States, we have five char
tered banks with a capital paid in of 8850,-
000. Their deposits will exceed $1,5000,-
000, on which thoy pay six percent.; total,
$2,350,000. Raleigh has, I learn, over $600,-
000 on deposit, and Wilmington some
$800,000, and their banking capital is about
half their deposits total bank capital in
three townsabout $1,550,000; deposits $2,-
900,000. Now, seven-tenths of those de
posits belong to our farmers, such men as"
you, down on middle men, and clamorous
for more capital. What do they do with it!
Will they lend to their neighbors who are
in straits and havn’t got well on their feet
since the war, and secure it by a mortgage
at six, eight or ten per cent.! Not one in
ten. You haven’t confidence in your neigh
bor, though he mortgages his tarm; but
you put it in one of these ltanks on long
time at six per cent., and your neighbors
go to the bank and borrow it at eighteen
per cent, to raise the wind for the next
crop; or he goes to a commission merchant
and buys his support on credit, at a cost of
over fifty' per cent, over cash prices, and
mortgages his crop in advance to pay for
them; and when that mortgage^*
closed, youe«iwpg»ao,i>»7)ifpite-#
and the same process to be gone overturn
tho next year, you see its want. of more
capital. O my'brother, take uo offence, I
pray you, at the wounds of a friend, when I
say it is a want of common sense and com
mon charity' toward each other. Make
your own supplies, and you will not have
to borrow so rnnch money. If you have
any to loan, let your neighbor have it un
less you had rather see tho banker specu
late ou your money than he. Nobody
blames the banker or commission merchant .
If they can run a machine on your money,
who should abuse them for it! Not I, for
one. Learn to use yaur capital wisely be
fore you clamor for more. Pour your sur
plus cash on your farms, or into manufac
turing, instead of the banks, and you will
knock out a middle man every lick.

The Corn Crop.
The September report of the Departmcn
of Agriculture says of the corn crop: Could
it be thoroughly ripened its aggregate
would exceed auy previous crop, and the
yield per aero would be one of the best,
notwithstanding the losses by overflow of
bottoms aud saturation of heavy flat soils,
such losses proving less than the usual
damages by drouth aud insects, while the
rains have greatly beuefitted the crop on
drier and highersoils. Nearly everywhere
com is late in maturing, from one to two
weeks. The general high condition is still
maintained the average being one per cent,
higher than in August. The State aver

A COTHION.8EN8E BUSINESS TALK.
Tlio Atlanta Constitution has “ interview
ed” Gon. Allred Austell, who has lately re
turned from a trip to the Northern cities,
and gives the following report of his opin
ions. To those who are personally ac
quainted with Gen. Austell, not one word
is necessary; and to those who do not
know him, we will say his opinions are en
titled to great weight—as he is not only a
close observer, but one of the shrewdest
business men in the Southern States.
Gen. Alfred Austell, President of tho At
lanta National Bank, and one of tho shrewd
est financiers and financial observers in
the South, yesterday returned from a trip
to New York. A reporter of the Constitu
tion had a brief conversation with him, the
leading points of which are herewith pre
sented:
A QUICK TRIP.
The General remarked that ho had made
a really flying trip home, as he left New
York ou Saturday afternoon at 3 o’clock
and arrived in Atlanta this (Monday) mom
iug at 9 o’clock, the time being just forty-
two hours. He came through Baltimore,
Washington, Richmond and via the Air-
Line Railroad to Atlanta.
CONDITION OF AFFAIRS NORTH.
itdpprtehfrrtifaenil, how did you find
business axBdn in the North!
Gen, AusteD—Well, air, toe condition of
the North ia!nrtr»bont thtet They have
beenMpott Wfrieif of tho houco over-.aii,vcfv
the war and now they are haring to come
down. The shrinkage of values through
out New England aijo New York city has
been immense. Rents of 'property have
fallen off from their maximum at least 50
per oont., and there are more houses to
rent Ifx New York than i ever,fcnew Jo be
the case before. Jobbing houses and cir
cles are not doing.n^och, as 'the lines of
trade are being ooncentrateef to the whole
sale circles. There is very-Tittle money
there except in the hands of; a few, and
they demand the very best securities be
fore they will let it go out of their posses
sion.-
Reporter—What is the general sentiment
there upon the currency question!
Gen. A—The moneyed men consider
that it would be national suicide to inflate
the currency because they know that there
is enough money already afloat to answer
all the demands of the commerce of the
country. Yet, there are some there, too,
who are in favor of expansion.
Reporter—It may be all very true that
there is quite enough money for all the
necessities of commerce and trade, but
those who most need the use of it cannot
get it
Gen. A—But if they have something to
give for it they con get it.
Beporter—Is their labor, their
to produce, manipulate and manufacture,
worth nothing!
Gon. A—Most assuredly! but there is
uo demand for their labor since produc
tion and manufactures have already outrun
the possibilities of consumption. There
are more goods ajroady made than there
demand for, aqd while J ia New|i
:CB VANCE ON CAPITAI. AND LABI
Ex-Gov. Z. B. Vauce, of North Carolina',
has said many very sensible things in his
day, but wo have seen nothing from
him which contains greater truths than
those set forth in the following extracts
from a speech delivered before a council
of Patrons of Husbandry in North Caroli
na, on a recent occasion!
Brain manure is our great want: educa
tion for young and old, especially in mat
ters pertaining to agriculture. We don’t so
much need laborers as a proper utilization
of that we have. Instead of croaking so
much at the negroes, we should work a
little more ourselves. At every depot
and cross Roads in the State you may see
any day crowds of idlers standing around
loose, whittling sticks and spitting at a
mark, abusing the negro, as a laborer, la
menting the scarcity of money and hoping
for that issue of $44,000,000 of reserve
lately discussed in Congress and cussed
elsewhere. There is really no ground for
despondency. Notwithstanding our great
losses by war, substantially ail that we had
before is here. Our mother earth is here
and,our tillers to it are undisturbed ; tho
early and later rains still fall according to
the promise, and the genial sunshine still
warms and fructifies as of old, whilst the
goodness of God still bestows the increase.
The strength and courage of our people
are still with them; and though, alas!
many of our bravest and best are not here
yet all the glorious recollectioos of our his
tory remain to cheer and bless us. And
the negro, too, is here, as good or better
than he was before, ii we knew how to
work him. Don’t despair of finding a way
to do that You say he won’t work un
less he is compelled. Very well { neither
will White men. But compulsion is of dif-

by virtue of being his master: now you

vagabondage, and he will gladly work when
he can do no better. At present he thinks
he can make a living by voting, but he will
come out of that in due season. On the
whole, I am inclined to think he is the
best laborer we are likely to get in the
South. As he is the best tool with which we
have to cultivate the soil, let us sharpen
and improve him in every possible way.
Aud for this great Anglo-Saxon people,
whose blood has filled the earth with the
most beneficent and utilitarian civilization
it has ever witnessed, and strewed the
shores of its oceans with mighty cities, re
ticulated its surface with steam roads, cov
ered the wild seas with the white wings of
commerce, and even invaded their unknown
depths with the iron shod pathways of the
lightning, for these men to acknowledge
that the wheels of their progress are stop
ped because the negroes won’t work and
keep contracts, is a sorry spec table indeed!
Shame to us, if it be so! „
And as to capital, the want of which
makes us complain so loudly, ape we re - ” -
suffering for that! I say not. We are
faring from a want of capacity to use what
we have, rather. Whatrelief would afresh
joana of Government currency do us, un
less we had the equivalent to give for it!
Suppose $44,000,000 were given to us, how
long would we keep it, if our consumption
annually exceeded our sales as far as it
