When I use us 1 mean the whole Southern people. Cotton to day is worth in Liverpool, IS l-2c. in gold which would be equal to 20c. iu green backs, it will take less than 3c. to pay expenses from here there, then why should not cotton bring 17e. per pound in our market to-day, instead of 12c. ? I say U is an outragious swindle, and the Southern people ought not to sub mit lo it,'* You may ask bow will we help ourselves, we are in debt and obli ged to pay that is tree, bat can we pay at 12c. for cotlou V It' we cau we will • hato nothing left to buy goods and provisions with for another year, be sides, we will be sacrificing our cotton at'two thirds of its real Value.

AT COST! At JNew York COST! is course if arid sell for the' carri< __ dcsigiflng speculator to bid what is right for our cotton. Every one who has noticed the market Tor several year*past, knows that whenever the price of cotton goes up in Liverpool it goes down in New York. I do wish arid even hope, that the people wifi consider these fact* and make imfuiry as to direct exportation. There are good and 1 reliable men in Ahgnsta who, I am told, will ship our cotton to. Liverpool and make liberal advances on it. 1 believe that if the debtors aud creditors will rihite in car rying out the abt»v« suggestion it will save us; if not, we will bo bankrupts and beggars. That plan wi)l save th*? ■South one hundred millions or dollars provided cotton continues lo sell at Why, does not the planter have as {rood a right to suspend as the banker, it he can show os good assets and good collaterals? What is better than cot ton? It is equivalent to gold, for bet ter than the rotten Western railroad bonds. Just let every planter sacred ly pledge his cotton for the payment of bis debts until he gets the fair valu ation foi it, based on ibe Liverpool market, and 1 will insure the money wifi come out of the old stockings and whatnots, i hold * thgt every man should pay his just debts, and that is the only plan by which it can be done without ruination to everybody, and nothing to tarry us on another year, and no one able to help another. 1 call upqq every one to lay-to and car ry out this plan, for in it lies the only salvation of our people. .The pesent crop will not go over five-eights of the last crop, there is no danger in cotton at 17c. Not onlr tbcplautcr, bat ev ery one East, West, North and Sonth are interested iu getting that price ex cept the speculator. - r Plcaao pnlllh, and I wish some one Kot in consideration of the recent decline of cotton and the stringency of the money market, only m rt- i ?ard of the conclusion to give np rosine&j in Thoxnasville. fh Stock of Boots & Shoes who Is able to do the eebiect justice, “*"***““ OOd will take it op mod do so tor tlie g< of oard*ro-trodden people.' **.*■ B. 11.
