John ston: Gen. Joseph E. Johnston, while lie has not accepted the position of com mander-in-chief of the armies of the Khedive, lias the subject under con sideration. The position was tender ed to him severul years ago, und again quite recently. A writer in The Angusla Chronicle says that Gen. Johnston's reluctance In accepting tlie appointment arose from the fact, that fie was greatly attached to his country, was naturally averse to be coming a soldier of fortune, and that he was unwilling to set the example to military men of the eoiMitry. There are thirty-three ootton, spin ning anil weaving corporations In Fall Itiver, owning forty-throe mills, with u uomiuul capital of *13,750,000. These mills contain 1,358,508 spindles and 29,885 power looms, consuming 138,725 hales of cotton, and producing 333,000,U00 yards of cloth per annum, Hading employment for 15,000 work people, and having a pay roll of *401,000 per month. There are no mills in Fall Itiver owned by private individuals. In corporated comiwinies own them, and they are managed by boards of di reetors. Thero are only 588,000,000 yards of printing cloths manufac tured in the United States i>er an num, uud of this amount 300,400,000 yards are manufactured at Fall Rivor. Seven families control thirty-two cor porations; nine men illl eighty-llvo Important ofllees, and tho small stockholders are Ignorant of the manner hi which their business is being conducted, and do not know whether they are swindled or not. Much is manufacturing in Massachu setts. Tun Southern cotton crop soils for ♦250,000,000. This would give each man, woman and child *SO or S6O a year. In addition to this are the su gar, rloe and other Held products and naval stores, amounting to as inuoh more, the whole representing *l5O or *9OO for each inhabitant, yearly. All this docs not make us prosperous. H'At/ ? Tho truth is, the commerce of tills country is demoralized and pervert ed, and by Its perversion industry suffers while capital thrives. The great productive regions of the South and West arc made tributary to the capital and the gambling schemes of the North and East, and t lie result is the aggrandizement of tho latter at the expense of the former. Our pov erty is not attributable to the charac ter of our leading industry—that Is great In value and indispensable to the commeroo of tho world. But that industry is shackled, taxed, preyed upon, and Its liberation from those exactions is an indispensable pre-requisite to its prosperity.—Co lumbus Enquirer. Bea little bolder, frleud, and you will lilt the nail squarely on the head. Capital thrives here propor tionally as much, if not more, than It does In the North, and industry to a greater extent is “shackled, taxed, preyed upon," and the first step to ward’* Its “filMTiiiion” is the reduc tion of legal interest to seven per cent., instead of ton as per the pres ent Usury law. We would have every man pay his honest debts if it takes a life time to do It, hut wo would give him a chance to do it. We would inculcate ‘‘the Golden Bnlc” instead of the “Rule of Gold,*' and insist that charity shall begin at home. A National Railroad Convention will meet at St. Louis November 3<i JudKi- Kellr) nn Finance. Col. R. A. Alston, of the Atlanta JSrrald, writes as follows to Hon. W. I). Kelley in a letter requesting him to give his Hnanciul views to the At lanta Herald: The averugo price of every cotton crop since 1883, In the hands of sim ulators, has been 21J cents, while the producer has only realized about 11J cents. In 1873, cotton opened In Atlanta at 17 cents, when it was bringing In Liv erpool B|d to Sjd. The panic enmo on, tho currency was contracted, und cotton declined to 12Jo in Atlanta, while It advanced in Liverpool to 9jd, thus leaving a margin for the speculator of nearly $34.00 per bale, when tho actual expense on shipping and selling a bale of cotton from At lanta to Liverpool was only about $11.75. This was clearly due to a financial system, which can always be controlled against the producer whenever confidence is disturbed. This state of tilings recurs whenever the furmers’ produce is ready for market. To this Air. Kelley, among other things pertinent to the subject, re plied : If you will qualify your expression by saying that everybody enyayed in productive iiuliutry or enlerprite ad mits that our present financial sys tem is a failure, you will speak with nearly absolute precision. What you say of the division of profits on cotton between the pro ducer and speculator Is, under this system, true of every branch of in dustry, and must continue to be true as long as the Government shall ar bitrarily deny the people an adequate volume of legul tender money ami force them to borrow privato credit at Inordinate rates, from parties who may desire to purchase their produc tions at.depreciated prices, with which to carry on business. And in the following it will be seen that Air. Kelley traces the evil to where it belongs, viz., to tho General Government. No man blames an other man for demanding any rate of interest for his money that he may see fit to demand; but when a gov ernment enacts laws in the Interest of the capitalists and against the pro ducing classes, then should tho evil be combated until reform is inaugu rated. Air. Kelley thus proposes to reform these evils: Can we create a brighter outlook for tho future ? Thttjnls the purport of your question. I believe we can. The first thing to be done will be to repeal the law arbitrarily fixing u day for the resumption of specie payments. This will lift the terrible shadow under which the whole debtor class in which are thousands of our best people are trembling ill despair. In so far it will restore confidence. The next step will be to tempt the owners of the boarded millions of that which, if it were circulating as a medium of exchange,would be money,but which is now dead and unproductive capi tal, to invest It, and thus restore con fidence und revive industry. This i would do by requiring the Govern ment to practically return to reli ance upon the American people for its loans, the acceptance of its own money at par for those loans, and the payment of Its interest in its legal tender money, to Its own people, ami this I would accomplish by requiring it to issue bonds of $25 and multiples thereof at a rate of one cent, a day for sl, or $3 85 per annum, which should, like the 3 per cent, certifi cates abovo referred to, be always convertible into greenbacks by the holder on presentation at the Treasu ry of the United States or any sub treasury. This would call forth the vast amount of legal tender money that is now hoarded for the purpose of purchasing property when the lluat crash shall come. But, says some creature of the credit-mongers, through the columns of the metro politan journals, "This is a scheme- to make the Government pay Interest to the rich upon funds they cannot employ." It would be this and noth ing else If ttio plan stopped hero. It, is, however, well known to every intelligent journalist in tho country that It does not stop here, but that I and my co-laborers for this reform have at all times proposed that the Secretary of the Treasury should be required to apply the funds thus re ceived to the redemption or purchase and cancellation of our gold bearing bonds. It would thus, to the extent, to which the 3.05 should lie taken, enable tho Government to change the character of a largo amount of interest from gold to paper, to pay it to our own people Instead of to for eigners, am! to save thediffereneebo twcon 3.05 and 0 per cent. It would break up or greatly diminish the speculation in gold. For by giving a new and profitable use to the green back, it would Increase its market price and thus bring gold and legal tender money to the same value or nearly so. Let mo Illustrate the sim plicity and effectiveness of the oper ation. In July and August the .Sec retary of the Treasury was eomiHill ed to buy as many greenbacks as lie could got for five millions of gold in each month, and during tills month he Is buying as many as ho can get for four millions of gold, lie thus practically goes into tho gold room weekly to traffic with the trearury of tho country and fatten the vampires that suck tho life-blood of tho indus trial classes. Why does he do this? Not because ho has hoards of gold that will enable him to resume specie pavuietits on tho first of January, 1879, and desires to profit by huck stering the surplus, but because the Internal revenue taxes, which arc payable in currency, do not produce income enough to meet the current expenses of the Government; and the result is, that lie has to buy currency month by month for that pur [lose. Under the system above indicated, this disreputable trutlc would disappear, for the law should authorize the Secretary to take from the currency derived from the issue of 3.65 bonds such amounts as might be required to enable him to meet, the appropriation made by Congress and to apply on the first of each month so much gold as might be in the Treasury, and not required by its exigencies to the call ing, redemption, and cancellation of 0 per oent gold bearing bonds, lie would thus, instead of swelling the business and profits of the gold room, as lie now does, by reducing our Interest account and relieving us from the impoverishing effects of .the practical absenteism established by the transfer of our gold-bearing bonds to Europe. This much ac complished, confidence would bo en tirely restored. Then the grower of cotton might hoi>e to realize a profit on his capital and lubor, and the I credit mongrers who now absorb that which should be his reward, might lie tie driven to raising cotton, or to engage in some other productive pursuit. Then, too, the aspiring poor of Great Britain and Europe would hear that prosperity had returned to ! our conntry and would flow in upon ; us, as they were doing when money ] was easy, aiid business on a cash basis | at the rate of from 400,000 to 450,000 | a year I remain yours very truly, Wit, D. Kelley. THE TIMES: SATURDAY MORNING, SEPTEMBER 25, 1875. The following from the Washing ton Chronicle will probably interest, our pooplo: The half, and the best half of Florida, is not known yet. If the iullueutial ones at Tallahas see and Quincy, will put their heads together, and build a road from tho latter place to Bulnbridge, Georgia, and from thenco to Eufaala and Columbus—if they will bend all their energies to this, even to the poiut of turning out to work personally and enthusiastically on the grading more will be done to benefit Middle Florida than can be estimated ut present. They ought to see, and we certainly know it will be the short est route that Cau be adopted from the great Northwest to Jaeksonvillle —all that long piece of south west ing by rail, .from Jessup to Live Oak will bo' cut off, Nashville, Montgomery, Eufaula, Quincy, Tal lahassee, and Jacksonville will bo the line for traveling, witli a con stantly increasing stream of people, as tho years roll on. Weongbt to| say, some may think, run from Tal lafiussee to Haiobridge direct by rail. No I make the line of depart ure one remove West of tho capi tal, and then let the Tallahassee people see to it. that the railroad south to Bt. Alarks, Is pushed down to deep water ou Appalaehe Bay, so that the Gulf steamers can land their cargo without lightering. These points secured at once, and Middle Florida will be known trade will animate the streets of Quincy and Tallahassee once more shipments will take place at St. Marks, as in the •time gone by—and the Htate can af ford to wait, patiently the comple tion of the road to New Orleoans, which will develop West Florida. K<‘Miiiii(l<ii in Franrr anil tin* In tied MUItFR. It appears that France lias fixed upon the year 1878 for the resump tion of specie payments. Why then, say the quidnuncs, cannotthe United States resume specie payment Imme diately? France has just commenc ed to recover from the effects of a devastating war, and is under tribute to the Prußsiaci Government. In or der to pay this tribute, extraordinary means have been resorted to, such as would not bo tolerared in any coun try under a Republican form of gov ernment. We should always consider that France is an old country and ours a new one. Tho lands in France are nearly all under cultivation, and sys tem of railroads and cunals are paid for, and her people are the most eco nomical in tho list of civilized na tions. Her fabrics and other manu factured products are the finest in the world; she imports crude products and re-exports them refined In the highest degree. The balance of trade must, of course, be in her favor. All young countries must be debtor countries -the Old World has the advantage of the accumulations of oenturles. On the other hand, we must be debtors from tho fact that we have wild lands to subdue, foresrs to be cut down, and general improve ments to be made. The Chicago "Inter-Ocean” gives a fair illustration : "Suppose an Illi nois farmer exports sl,t)uo wortli of wheat at a profit of 8 per cent., SBO. Again, suppose the French manufac turer exports SI,OOO worth of fancy jewelry at a profit of 25 per cent.,s2so, the balance of profit, $ 200, or 20 per cent,., accrues to that,country. It lias parted with but $750 In value, while we have disposed of $1)50 in value.” The slight profit which we have must be invested Improvement, while that of the older countries is invested in tho general government loans.
