CHEERING.
We find ia one of omr Northern ex
changes the following cheerful article
on the Crops and the Finance*:
What a people «a are ! what a coun
try we hare ! Only a few weeks ago the
inhabitants of the Sooth were starring,
and the North, oat of its abundance,
seat them ship loads of food and hun
dreds of thousands of dollars- Such a
wail of absolute and extreme necessity
was never beard before io our land ; jet
there was no deception. This distress
was real, and nobly was it reliered.
To day every one of those Southern
States is teeming with food, either har
vested or ripening in the fields ! There
are exceptional localities wh*re indo
lence and ignorance shall reap as they
have sown, and whose porerty-pinehed
inhabitants will continue to appeal for
aid. But the unirersa! testimony is in
favor of overwhelming crops.
Fr..-m Texas to Virginia it is the
same. Ihe two thousand barns which
were destroyed in the Shenandoah Valley
two years ago are rebuilt and waiting
for t .e products of ten thousand
Cotton U growing with excellent promise
where the floods inundated the bottoms
of Louisiana. The tamed Sea Islands
of the Georgia and Carolina coasts, long
abandoned, are ready to contribute their
precious long staple to the hungry
markets of the world- Texas, always
thrifty, thrives as she has never done
before. The negroes, shiftless by nature
arc rap idly acquiring habits of industry,
and the old planters whose former occu
pation was indolence, are taking thei
suus into the fields with their hoes.
This is the beginning of prosperity-
T - Soa'.h bus taken a ne* lea* of !i e,
a . j henceforth will press forward in the
race of improvement to the development
of wealth. One letter from Louisiana
says, “With successful cotton this year
the planters will be independent.”
Another remarks : “Com constitutes
three fourths of a living at the South.
We shall only Lave to make op the other
fourth.” The Raleigh (.V. C.) Standard
says: “From what we can learn a larger
breadth will be planted in cotton in this
State than in acy former year. Colton
will fay well at fifteen cents.” For the
first time in many years, before the war
as well as since, there is a ready
acknowledgment that the prospect for a
large crop of cotton is good. Croakers
about short trope, rust, worms, etc., are
nowhere beard. The season is back
ward, but this makes an abundant
harvest the more certain.
Bat Fortune has ponred it* plenty
into the lap of the North as well as the
bypath, and blessed it btyond precedent.
All the accounts from every State agree
that snch crops have not been promised
f r ten and twenty years. It U remark
able that we hear nothing of weevil,
rust, and midges. The eyes of the
whole country —we anight say, of the
whole world—are intently fixed upon
t-.e maturing fields. To them there is a
confiding and hopeful looking fur relief
from present distresses. They are the
potent meant to set in active motion the
machinery of trade. Ail kinds
o! business wait on their development-
A successful harvest from Maine to
California would aid at least $1,500,-
009,000 to the wealth of the country.
'] he wheat crop last year was valued at
$153.773,646, and the corn crop at
$59i,66b,205. An estimate of this
year's crops gives thirty millions tons of
grain against twenty two millions last
jear, and nineteen minions in 1860.
With snch an influx of wealth the
South will proride for its present needs,
which are distressing, and have a large
surplus to begin business with once
more. It wiil have this advantage, too,
tiist it can commence with a clean
ledger. in former years, before the
war, the South was always in arrears :
it anticipated its income at least a year.
Now, both the necessity and the tempt
ation to live beyond its means are gone.
No longer burdened by a huge family of
slaves to pruvide for, and oblivious to
tbe craving desires which idleness be
gets, the planter joins his efforts with
those of the freedman and works out
the more abuudaiit reward. Cheered by
bis good fortune, bis heart will enlarge
with kindly feelings toward his flag and
Lis countrymen, and the good work of
reconstruction will be hastened-
In the West the present stringency
in the money market and the scarcity ot
currency, which is attributed to poverty
o! resource* due to former crop failures,
will disappear, and an impetus be given
to all departments of trade. The earn
ings of railroads and steamboats will
multiply fourfold.
At the North, capital, t ow idle, will
seek investment in numberless enter
prises which now receive only a shrug
and suspicious shake of the head.
Mocks and securities of all kinds will
improve, and we shall go on prosper
ously as we b»ve done—only business
will be transar •) on a somewhat differ
ent bas s. Specu.a’ion has had its day
and will have to stand aside. There is
to be no more fattening on the exorbi
tant profits extorted from consumers.
1 be dry goods men, the manufacturers,
and the cotton dealers, have all bad
ti.eir day of high living and their day
of discomfiture and distress, and now
the grain ai<d provision dealers must
take their turn. The laborer will no
longer be oblige ! to starve because his
Scanty purse srtll not purchase flour at
fll | 'ey barrel and fork at Hi; but
prices will coins down to near y what
they sure before the war. la like
manner an abundant cotton crop will
lower the jpnee of dry gwods. With
hod nod clothing cheap, wares must
c.iner fail aud the employer be the
gainer, or lhe workman will be permit
ted to pul aside a large |or won isf his
earning* which now go lor actual usees

and Secretary McOhlfoob'a omtaoas let
ter. Wkatwwaee now ia only a pa
ne at waiting for the rising of the tide,
wkick when taken at the flood will lead
ao to fortane- Oar cotton crop ia its
qsaatity and quality, and the grain
crop ia its abundance, will bring us
larger returns than we have ever before
eajoyod.
True a* Gospel.
The Atlanta Oyeatam, ia aa editorial
published a few days since, says that no
class of men in sore bitter in Lbcu op
position to Reconstruction than those
whose members filled “soil places"
daring the war. This remark will apply
to the opponents in both sections, bat
more particalarly to those of the South.
The true soldier* of both armies cherish
do fouling* of bitterness, but honestly
desire reconstruction. The “bomb
proofs,” die speculators, the blusterers,
and the nincompoop*, on both sides of
the Sue, seek to keep up suite. As io
1961, the most noisy Secessionists did
the least figbtiag ; ao ia 1867, those
who did the least figbtiog head the line
of opposition to restoration.
Gen. Long*tree! staked everything
upon the issue of the struggle in which
be figured so gallantly. He considers
that he lost fairly, and that his antagon
ist* are therefore entitled to the fruits of
the victory. His conduct, as the van.
qnishad party is. therefore, manly and
noble. It is only the sniveling coward—
conscious of his hypocrisy and bad
fat*b to the cause which he professed to
love—that accept* the issue in a qnerel
ous and sullen spirit. The truly brave
and magnanimous men of the Southern
armies are those who are least bitter
and despondent. They feel a proud
consciousness of having performed what
they conceived to be their duty. They
can, therefore, afford to cheerfully ac
quiesce in the decrees of Him who gave
the victory. That such men should be
sneered at by narrow minded scribblers,
two thirds of whose brains are behind
their ears, is not unnatural.
“ Quondam.”
The Georgia correspondent of the
New York Time* thn* alludes to “Notes
on the Situation
Mr. B. H. Hill, ex-Confederate Sena
tor from Georgia, has just published No.
6 of a series of letters to an Augusta
paper, called “Notes on the Situation,”
which recite with admirable precision
the various clauses of the Constitution
of the United States, laying great sires*
on the reserved right* of the people of
the several States, and showing the utter
poweriessness of Congress to “make or
unmake a voter." It ia supposed that
he will write another series of commu
nications on the Tea Tax, the Missouri
Compromise, and other political events
of historical prominence. He forgets
that he is “riding a stick horse in the
ring after the circus is done gone as
Mr. Cowart recently remarked. He in
sists positively that Congress cannot
make or unmake a voter ! He has not
a doubt on that point. It is plain Gen.
Pope does not agree with him. for he is
makiug them by the thousands after
the pattern furnished by Congress, and
unmaking all who do not exactly come
up to the model in every particular.
A man writing columns io these days
upon abstract questions of constitu
tional law as a preface, and the consid
erations of the practical matter now be
fore the people, causes one to sympa
thise with the boy at the theatre, who
asked his friend “to wake him op when
Kirby dies,” but not before.
Heavy on the ‘‘St&y-at Homes ’’
The Atlanta Opinion tenderly alludes
to the above class as follows :
Gen. Longstreet is still being pelted
bv tbe little billets and little editorial
pop guns in Georgia and elsewhere.
This is unfortunate for Gen. Longstreet.
He ooght to conciliate the liule fellows.
They wans notoriety: he oajbt to notice
them. They waul to vindicate their
record during the war; he ought to afford
them an opportunity. Doubtless they
would like to fight—as they did during
the war.
The Israelites, says a cotemporarv,
have been much pitied because the
Egyptians compelled them to make
bricks without straw. But the Georgia
editor who boldly stayed at home during
the war, “fiang metaphorical flags to the
breeze, charged in the abstract, van
quished theoretically, wrote without
bruins, printed without ink or paper,
published without advertisers or subscri
bers, and stood magnanimously in the
gap when the very devils had deserted j
this is the man for the laurels and com
plimeniary liqo «■ while living, and for
a stately monument when dead.”
Skwxtob Wsi.it sxd tub Nkwsps
esas.—The above gentleman disowns
some of the inferences in a speech lately
made in Kansas, and the Springfield
Republican gives him the benefit of its
views. It any*:
Senator Wade disowns the obvious
“agrarian” inferences from his loose
Kansas speech, and says he is not fool
enough to believe in an equal division
of property, when five or ten years
experience will be sure to pile it all up
again in the bauds ol the few, and ieave
ihe masses of the people as poor as
ever, and no better off for their brief
ricbex. In which, be is certainly very
sensible and practical; but he is not
fair in throwing the blame of the mis
understanding upon the newspapers.
They are often thus made the conve
nient pack- horses for ** the loose t-x
--peetoration of speech'' that seizes our
stump orators on exhilarating occasions,
and in a rare atmosphere like that of
the plains. Mr. Wade's speech justified
the inference made from it, in its whole
general drift and tenor ; we accept hit
explanation of its term*, as is right;
but «# advise hiiu next lime he ''shoot*
off hi* mouth,'' belore a border audi
ence, upon the vital questions ol society
and government, to know what ha thinks
sad lie sere what he say*. Mr. Wade
savs. too, that he does uot seek the > ftice
of Presideul, or auy other; that be is
