Wo hope it may be widely circulate in .South Carolina, Alabama and Miss issippi. ’ While aiming as a family paper, to advance religion and good morals, it is especially devoted to the cause of emperanco. The publishers of the paper, and friends of this good cause desire your hearty cooperation and support. You see everywhere the evils of the liquor traffic, the slime and deadly touch of “serpent.” You are eyewitnesses of the want and wretchedness entailed upon innocent and helpless children, wives and mothers by this traffic. You see its blighting effect upon the piety and growth of the churches. You can do much to stay its progress. We need a paper, earnest and true in its consecration to the one object of rescuing the fallen, and saving others from falling into the slavery and love of the drunkard’s appetite. Will you heli? us in supplying this need ? Write for the paper. Speak a woril in its favor; get up clubs of subscrib ers. In doing this you will greatly aid in sustaining the paper and at the same time, help to carry comfort and gladness to many des< late homes and sorrowing hearts. L. R. GWALTNEY. To the Worthy Vico Templars of the I. 0 G. T. Rome, Ga., Jan. 31, 1873. Sisters of the Order: “Men are what women make them f id an old adage, and a true one! How great then, isour responsibility! Let us make mon sober, honest, earnest, truthful and manly. Let us first do right ourselves, then bold up the right to them, and bid them follow us. They will not refuse when whowiVthc right by an earnest advocate. We sillier most by the evils of intemperance, then let women rally to the cause and exert ourselves to diffuse the principles of tomperonce, and to shun its evils. This can best be done through the t medium of a newspaper, devoted to ; the cause, a cause to which its editors | an* devoting time, talent and money | with no sparing hand.

Tb.e Nashville Union ynd American saxs: There seems to be a very prev alent idea that some sold'of I'gislation is necessary to relieve the mom y mar ket and give our tinnnves a better L;d anc< d and U< althi< r condition.

Tins is a general failing. If only a few did it, I he. effect would be porooptible-; but the few are the exception to the rule and the general public is anticipated receipts, we have vommu rity of borrowers and lenders. It is a loosing business to be living on bor rowed capital, and will prove a ruin ous business, if not stopped in time. Under the system of doing business which seems to prevail, we are alter nately flush and pinched. Currency vibrates betw-een the country districts and the money centers. When our crops are to be moved, there is a de mand for money which tests the ca pacity-of the banks to supply. So money becomes scarce in the cities, and those living in cities who have made extravagant ventures during a reduadant money market, find it Lard or impossible to get money to meet their engagements. But the- money which at these times is distributed throughout tiie country does not stop long enough with the people to do them much good. It is already owed and goes immediately to pay debts. So thq country is at once drained, and the people are left to go through an other year substantially on credit each year living on the. next year's in come, instead of having a supply on hand from which !.> d . ded. Matters may not always appear to take this shape with the individual, bat this is the effect of operating on credit and . borrowed capital, calling for annual seLiicmen. 1 l Flic -yu.*p;e never have anything they can really call their own, because there is c 0..- sta.ul.ly ahead of them the annual- pay ment which will absorb the receipts of the year ami return their money di rectly to the hands of the lenders, and accumulate it in the money centers. Hence, they are always comparatively poor, always working hard, always pinched for money, and the money market is tight. But at the money centers there is a redundancy, -stimu lating all sorts of extravagant specula tions and enterprise, which divi rt the currency from its legitimate uses. We are just now building too many railroads—devoting too mueii capital and attention to transportation and l producing too b i,tie to .transport. Few of tiie railroads hail! during the last tew years, or since the- war, v, 11 re main'the property of those whose no i ey built them, They will become use lul, and add to the wealth < .i the main try, but they will go into tin hands ol the creditors of those who bor rowed momy with which to pay for their budding. Hud their construc tion 1 ecu dt laved until there was a real demand for them, their builders would have remained their owners, because tin- roads would at once have become profitable invest-j merits. But while these roads will i How remain bh ssjuge to the country, i towns mid individuals will lost: hea\ i lyg dud their money ] i • ' hands! of e- pilaliats. The people ought to adopt the sys- ; fem of paying as thevgo. Then, v.’i en 1 they have anything to sei l , the money for it vv ill be theirs, instead of going to pay debts. It will remain in their hands and m tin.* community, to be used forlocal purposes and stii.iula.ic productive in-.iusti-y. Farmers and i others who now want to boiruw, will ‘ have a little irnniey to lend. As al. events, they wi’l not v:oit to borrow, and the numln rof borrowers will be greatly diminished, while the number of h.ndvrs will be increased.
