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. Auguatn. 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 gusto has two of the best daily papers in the State., We called on our gditorial brethren, and found Col. Randan? Stevenson as genial aa ever, f Hon. Mr. Walsh at the ’Qb-' found him busy—pro-Jr but were prevented . 1 jT engagements. Friday thing seem pleased to obse' provements going foi arousing to life aud usually dull Summer Wo aro greatly surprised of Augusta seem to take so littl^ in the construction of our NortOaMuem railroad, which must necessarily largely increase the trade of that city. cases of calicoes were i>wn as 4.85, which was a ruinoi Much of these goods are 'not worth" the market hardly what the raw material 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 --** at .■ 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. w and Elegant FALL DRY GOODS! JAS. A.

The ANNUAL FAIR for l?**** - ? .^jgjGcorgia State Agricultural Society vi At the beautiful ‘ A 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- _ Formerly you compelled him by virtue of being his master: now you compel bim to work by force of his neoes- - riL/v.r.

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!

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!
