THE DAILY TIMES. Columliua. On.. SATURDAY. NOVEMBER . 1875. ritAMin wmisr, i _ . r<4Uon . . U. WIU.IAM*. > LARGEST DAILY CIRCULATION In (It? und Niiburh*. John Morrissey's majority over the regular Tammany uandklate was about 1200. • ■#■> Mimimifpi elects four Democratic Congressmen out of six. The House delegation in the Forty-third Con gress stood live Republicans to one Democrat. Sksutob Kiv, ox-Honator Johnson’s successor, has been interviewed by a Nashville American reporter on the finances. He says he has always been a hard money Democrat, but is op losed to forced resumption and con traction at present. Senator Key does not favor inflation. Miwussirn Is redeemed! To a Southerner this compensates for the result In Ohio and Pennsylvania, The manacles are loosed ; her people breathe freely once more. In no Southern State has the reign of car pet-baggers ever been resumed after having onee been sot aside. The re sult In Mississippi Is a triumph for Conservatism. The following shows the impor tance attachod to irrigation in France and the value of a Stato Entomolo gist: “The French Government are considering a project for construct ing a canal by which the vineyards of the Rhone may be Hooded ns a remedy for the phylloxera. The ca nal will cost MO,OOO, but it fwill bring into fruitfulness 00,000 acres of vino luuds, which will yield $40,000,000 an nually. The Union of the Central Ameri cas States.— Tho New York Herald says: “A Bismark appears to have arisen in Central America whoso mis sion is the unity of tho flveStutos and the formation of a fodorul repub lic after the fashion of ours. The step by which tho proposed confeder ation Is to bo reached Is the celebra tion of a treaty between the five republics-Guatemala, Costa Rica, Nicaragua, Salvador and Honduras —by which the principal interests of the country may bo united arid the means of assimilating them be deter mined.” The New York Hun says: “Tho workingmen of Fall River have re solved to support tho Democratic party, “whose policy,” they declare, “if rightfully defined* and honestly carried out, is fully adequate to all the wants and requirements of the people.” The factory operatives may now be ablo to exercise a wider influence than os members of a mere labor party. Repeated defeats In the very Htatos where trades uuions are strongest should have taught work ingmen that class political organiza tions have no chance of success. The country is too broad and tho industries and callings of its people too varied, for unions to wield the same power as in a compact country like England.” Alabama. The New York Hun thus describes tiie result of Republican rule upon the finances of Alabama: Alabama was one of tho recon structed Htatos In which tho carpet buggers had the fullest swing. In 18(53 the Htate debt was about eight millions in round numbers, and in 1871 it had grown to nearly twenty nine millions. The taxation in 1800 was $850,171, and in 1870 $2,982,000, while the assessed valuation of pro perty In 1860 was $132,199,000, ana in 1870 only $155,582,000. Ho that both debt and taxes augmented in the in verse ratio of the depreciation of pro perty and the ability of the people to pay. These were the results of Re publican rule in Alabama. Fully two-thirds or twenty millions of the existing debt may be said to have been stolen outright by the thieves who hold possession of the Htate under the reconstruction poli cy, aud who were sustained in nil their iniquities by tiio Administra tion. The great bulk of this enor mous sum was ostensibly authorized to build or aid railroads which never were built or aided at all, except in a limited outlay for purposes of decep tion. A largo number of Republicans of Mobile have signed an address cull ing upon Republicans to support the now Constitution. Of this address tho Register remarks: The signors of this communication see that tho defeat of this Constitu tion would entail a tremendous loss upon the people, and operate us an enormous evil upon tho State of Ala bama. Frsiirr. The aged statesman, Thiers, made a great speech at Areaohon, France, on the smth of October. In this speech he showed how the Republic has voted, and why it should be sus tained. He dexdared the monarchy impossible in France. M. Thiers concluded with this eloquent perora tion : Certainly wo had reached the height of the military glory, and that glory a moment eclipsed, will not perish. But if military glory is a sun which is sometimes veiled with clouds, the glory of civilization is a sun that never ceases to shine. It is that and I have seen it among foreign na tions it is that sun. still brilliant even in tho midst of our worst re verseH.whieb revived in our favor the sympathy of all nations, even of those least disposed in favor. Let us unite, then, to conserve that no ble part of the national patrimony, and for my part, it shall always have to defend it the last efforts of a lifo which is drawing to its close, but which to the lust day will remain faithful to all the great interests of reason and humanity. It is stated that M. Emile do Girardlu has lately published several articles to demonstrate that a sin cere reconciliation between France and Germany is desirable in the in terests of both nations. An eminent German Statesman has also issued a pamphlet on the same subject. [Comm ante* t'‘<l ] THE INTENSIVE IYffEH. The great need of our farmers Is Capital. Land Is not now considered by bankers and monied men as col lateral upon which capital can be procured, even at high rates of inter est. If a mortgngo is given for secur ing money borrowed, one must in volve ten thousand dollars worth of land in order to borrow one thousand dollars. Hinco 1870 planters have, generally speaking, made no money. Hence the money borrowed then is still duo with its accruing interest. If llio mortgngo is foreclosed, the plantation is sold for one-lmlf its real value. To prevent this result, plant ers have planted large crops of cot ton without rotating their crops, arid hcnco tho land has beconio sterile. No intelligent planter will advocate planting all cotton; but tho poverty of the planters is so great that they can not invest money in improved agricultural implements and machinery. Free labor can hardly bo made profitable without them. The whole question of success is dependent upon capital, in order that we may utilize what we now have. Plantations making one hundred bales of cotton, with favor able seasons and full crops, have un der cultivation about six hundred acres in order to make corn and fod der enough to feed tho mules aud bunds that are required to make one hundred bales of cotton. Hoveral miles of fencing are necessary, and have to bo annually repaired at great coat. The chief cost to the State is an ominous one, viz: tho rapid destruc tion of timber; forests over half a cen tury old are ruthlessly cut down, and one-half the wood is burnt, in order to "clear,” tho laild economically i Lands thus impoverished by long culturo produce now about one bale i to live acres. Reduce the area to two hundred acres, narrowing the fenced area to that amount of land, and tho fifty bales of cotton, together with the grain and forage made, will not more clear money t han the six hun dred acres now do. Less labor will be required, and the extra stock sold will provide the necessary capital. ]f the former is allowcdlo lire tldx cash capital to pay cash for his supplies one year, he will make more money than lie has made for several years; ho will be encouraged to work harder—(he can scarcely spend less than he does at present)—-anil ho will, perhaps, see tho wisdom of coming down to one hundred acres and two mules. One hundred acres will, in four years’ time, if green crops are turned under as a fertilizer on twenty live acres each year and grain planted only on the land where pea vines have been turned under, make forty bales of cotton and “corn enough to do.” The land thrown out will, in a few years, become so much improved that it, will pay to gradually increase I the area cultivated. Probably three acres out of four cultivated In cotton from Columbus to Atlanta full to pay tiie cost of cultivation with cotton at twelve cents per pound. If every planter in Georgia who is in debt (and where is one who is not V)—would cease to cultivate two-thirds of his land, he would have more leisure, more profit, and would gradually break away from tiie system of peon age which now enslaves him. A small farm in Georgia is not, how ever, like a small farm in the West. A plantation of six hundred wares at present rarely contains more than two hundred acres of rich land. Un like the Western prairies, our lands are worn, and It is difllcnlt to so con tract tho area as to enclose two hund red acres of good land In one lot. In that ease it may be better to retain the fencing already employed, and select from the six hundred acres two hundred that are rich. To work poor land with free negro labor, and plant it in cotton continuously, would convert a Rothschild into a Lazarus financially. The intensive system is tiie one which, in our opinion, cotton planters should adopt. Cos Non t'nlture In I'ulifoi'iiln null In Urnrain. AVe learn from an exchange, that one man can cultivate from fifteen to twenty acres of cotton, but it requires eight men to gather that amount in good godsons. The cost of picking is one cent per pound when fed, or a cent ami a half a pound if they board themselves. This plan would bank rupt auy Georgia planter in a short time. But we notice that the cotton districts Of tlie Pacific slope only em brace bottom lands, and a small quantity or the best level uplands, j The average production is a bale of 500 pounds lint cotton per acre. Yet it is admitted that cheaper tmusix>r tntion and improved Irrigating faelli-! ties are needed to make the business ! a success. In Georgia, the only way to make j cotton culture profitable, is to do as I they do in California, viz,, limit culti vation to our very best lands, and never plant cotton on poor land. One man may make six bales on eight < acres, and this is no uncommon re sult on small farms in Upper Geor gia where in n hundred acres only ten are planted in cotton. But a ne gro cultivating forty acres of poor sandy “plnev woods” land will very rarely make six bales on the forty acres. Count the costs and labor and profit of the two systems and one will arrive at the true solut ion of tho cotton problem. •• ♦ * Missoi hi has ratified, at the polls, the work of the Constitutional Con vention held in August.

Tbe Kite!lnn* anil the Currem-). While we may admit that it would liavo been better to havo left tho cur rency question for Congress to settle, so far u tho success of the Democra cy Is concerned, it Is evident that the result of tho recent elections has not settled that question, even In tiie Htutes where tho Republicans have triumphed. In Ohio tho result sho wed tho defeut of Gov. Allen, butalso the power of the ariti-ooutraetionists; tho issue was not a Waterloo defeat for either political party. In New York and iu Penn, the chief issues were not those of the currency and hard money. Democratic success in New York was a Republican victory; just us Republican success iu Ohio was a Democratic gain. In Pennsyl vania both parties elaira to have the hard money majority. Thus far local issues have characterized those polit ical contests. In the Bouth, while the vast majority of our tax-paying people are opposed to specie resump tion and tupid contraction of tiie cur rency. inasmuch as these measures will Involve a largo majority in bank ruptcy, yot the dominant issue is the overthrow of the wrongs and mal administration for which Gen. Grant and liis administration are directly responsible. As yet we have seen no cause to think that the wrongs heap ed upon tho people and the States of tho South have weighed at all in (lie recent elections. In the North and West the currency question will prob ably prove of greater moment than that of the overthrow of Radicalism. Tiie South stands a unit almost against tho usurpations of Gruntism, aud is destined to wield a more im portant influence In the next Presi dential canvass than she lias done since the war. From the Atlanta Conntltution. The Went And Houth. We publish an article from the Cleveland, Ohio, Leader upon the proposed canal to connect the South Atlantic States with the great Missis sippi Valley. We hope our readers will read it carefully. It gives the true reason why we are poor and de pendant to-day. The want or ad equate and cheap transportation is one of the great and pressing evils of our section. Give us this and direct trade, immigration, manufactures and a development in every depart ment of industry will follow. We hope our business men will look carefully into this matter, und take such steps as will bring it proudly to trie attention of i ho coining Congress. Wo give the communication that appeared in tho Leader: Cleveland, October 15. 1 notice in your issue of the 13th i inst. a brief editorial comment on the object of the cheap transporta tion convention, recently held in Hie city of Rome, Gn., which i cannot I permit to pass unnoticed. Your as sertion that “the present water routes and railroads of tiie country are sufficient for all business de mands,” may be true in tiie North, but will not apply with equal truth to the South, where there are, eom | paratively, few railroads, and no competition; where local freights arc so exorbitant that it is utter ly impossible for a southern manufacturer b> compete with the north, coal, iron and labor are cheap and abundant, and in many eases ' they are even exempt from taxation, yet not withstanding tho northern j manufacturer can, iri almost every I instance lav down his products in the principal cities of the Houth for less monev than tiie native manufactur ers. Why is this? Because the local rate of freights is very frequently ns much for one hundred miles, ns is tiie through rate from New York, Baltimore and Cincinnati. Tho same is true of cotton, which can be ship- ped to the North, manufactured, and 1 returned to tiie South and sold for the same, or less money than ir worked up at home. There are mil lions of acres of excellent agricultu ral land, and also vstst tracts rich in coal and iron lying idle in the Soul li that would have been developed and settled upon long since but for the one great drawback- lack of cheap transportation. Tho object of the Rome convention was to endorse the Atlantic and Great. Western Canal project, which, if carried ouf, will -give them the relief there they seek, affording them cheap transportation for their subsistence from tho West as well as for their cotton to the sea board. The planters of tho Houth, unlike our farmers of the North, buy all they eat, and tire, theretofore, greatly dependant upon the west for their subsistence, hence the canal project is of as much impor tance to tiie west as to the south. Even your own State of Ohio is inter- ested in it, for Northern Alabama furnishes Ohio manufacturers annu ally, with thousands of ions of the best iron in the market, every ton of which is shipped by rail. Col. Fro bel. United States engineer, has just Completed his last survey from which it appears that by using the river route, one hundred and thirty miles of canal can bo avoided, and the cost of construction greatly lessened, re ducing the amount of canal to he built to loss than fifty miles, thus opening up a splendid inland naviga tion through a vast agricultural, min eral and coal section from the Atlan tic seaboard to tho great west, and which, if consummated, will undoubt edly prove of great importance, not only to the south, but to the west as well, and contribute largely to the j success of tho direct trade movement 1 which is now so thoroughly agitating the public mind of the south. A com i mittee of the United States Senate made an examination of the proposed [ route, and their report was unani mously in favor of the completion of the work. Congress, during the last session, made an appropriation of | $666,000 to this enterprise, and that l amount is now being expended in i clearing out the Tennessee river and opening tho Muscle Shoal canal, a I part of this great route. It is realty ■ singular that so few people areaware |of how much lots been done, and ! what appropriations have been ] secured by the persistent and de -1 ter mined action of the few energetic. I hopeful and public spirited men who ; j have been controlling this movement, j U. S. Senators Gordon and Norwood have both been active and faithful! ' friends of the enterprise, and they ! have worked unceasingly to accom plish its full and speedy consumrati | lion, and I trust the day is not far distant when you, Mr. Editor, may "paddlevourdwn canoe,” from Cleve land to Savannah without thanks to | any railroad corporation. lam well aware of the. I think unjust, preju dice existing in the minds of many intelligent persons against granting national aids to railroads and other similar schemes. Yet without such aid would our western territory have been opened up as it is to-day? 1 ap prehend not.

According to the recent survey alt that, will be re quired is to render the rivers along the proposed route navigable to the points of intersection and the con struction of less than (iffy miles of canal null of which will cost but. a few millions of dollarsi and we will have a continuous water route from Cleve land, Pittsburg, Cincinnati and St. Louis to Savannah, navigable for such crafts as the Baxter steamers which plv so successfully the Ktie canal.
