If you i indebted to The Hbralii, please settle now by cash or note. We need the money. To the Readers and FHeads “The Herald.” For some time we have been con sidering the propriety of discontinu ing The IIehai.d, as a regular news paper, aud issutug in its stead journal entirely devoted to agricnl ture, immigration and the industria development of North and South Carolina. In taking this step we are actuated not only by our own it: clinations, but by the request of some of the most prominent farmers in this section, who have used as an argument in favor of its publication that there is not a strictly agricul tural paper in either of the states in whose interests this paper will be published. It will not be in any sense a news or a political paper except us regards legislation, by Congress, in reference matter how meritorious it tuny otherwise be, will be consigned to the waste basket. While primarily an agricultural paper, it will contain articles on social and moral topics, and aneb literary extracts os will make it welcome visitor to the home of every intelligent citizen. There has never been a time when the farmers needed more informa tion in regard to conducting (heir business or when a more ini iterative necessity existed for them to hare a convenient medium through which they may exchange their individual experiences, and be mutnally profited thereby. Some of the most intelligent and succetsful farmers in the Stuff have p-otitised to assist us in this enter prise and their articles alone will be tu >tv than worth the price of the new paper. In order that we may give onr Whole time to the work of rondtu ting this new paper we have made ar rangements to have it published by Mr. H. C. Starr, Jr., of Fl« rence, front which place it will lie s<-iii ont Mr. Starr, liesides lieing a goathy and en- conragemcnt hurt- bieii with hint from the very oouin'e'Hvni- tit of his editorial career, and to assure them that their esteem and ooulidi tire is something that he valnes far ; lane any fame or fortune that might ba\e been his portion. Under its present management it was the lot of The Herai.n to pass through two very hitter and hard fought political campaigns, but even in the time of greatest excitement it never contain ed a single word that was believed to lie unfair or untrue, or that was not necessary to say in order that the pa per might vindicate its own {losition, and be true to those whose confidence it conld not abuse. However mnch its editor may have regretted the ne cessity of exposing the designs of those who were deceiving the people, he has no regrets for writing as he did and no retractions to make there for; his only regret being that he conld not do more to bring about restoration of good fueling among the people and of good government t> the State. are said in reft/renoe to the over pro- ( duotton of cotton and the remedies therefor. - la the paragraph, which we quote, the editor is wrong when he attempts to place some of the bl.ime for the ove? production of cotton on the factors and merchants. Of the factors we can’t speak so confidently, Init we have been in a position to know that so far from the merchants n-iug lln ir influence to indnee the pl.iiitinc of heavy crops of cotton, thev have ihme their utmost to dis- cour.ig - it, anlant more should spend iheii money in better cultivation aud fertilisation It will pay theoL We are aware that mnch of the excess in cotton planting has been dne to the insistence of factors and merchants who, regarding ootton as the only cash crop, have advanced money and supplies on cotton acre age and that alone. This year’s ex elged by anyone acquainted the conditions that confront them Despite the most diligent inquiry w« ha e failed to find, and this inquiry ha i extended oyer a number of years going back to the time’when ootton sold for 10 and 12 cents, a single merchant, that deserved the name of a good business man, who ever want ed to supply his customers with corn and meat, or for that matter with anything else that could lie pro duced on the farm, for the simple reason that where he has to supply these two staple articles, the account of the fanner swells to such great proportion that it is only under the most favorable circumstances that the indebtedness can be cancelled. On the other hand where the farmer has plenty of provisions and only wants such articles as be cannot produce at home his account D to small, when compared with another who needs everything, as to leave no doubt on the mind of the merchant as to his ability to pay it in full. Then, too, the merchant knows that if the farmer’s account is small it is absolutely safe, and in addition to this he is aware of the fact that the nun who purchases the bulk of bif provisions will, in the eonrse of a few years, be a very unsafe customer to have, and one that will inevitably cause him loss. Meat and corn are staple articles and as snch bear a very small profit and in addition to ibis are always sold for cash. This has put a great burden on the merchants, which they would have been more than glad, had it been possible, to have escaped, and they have been, during the past summer, hard pressed to Are rmttrrl/ rtmovMt Sr P.W.W. —Prickly Aik.

The extremely high pric< ■> for cot ton that prevailed for a good in toy years subsequent to the War, so f u - from being a blessing to our people was jnst the reverse, in that it led them into extravagant habits and made them forget the importance of raising provision crops. Rut for this, the South would now be rich and independent and such a thing as financial stringency unknown to its people. We arc very far from underrat ing the present financial stringency, but hard as t)ie lesson will be, and despite the great personal loss it will bring to many of our people, we be lieve it will ultimately prove a bless ing to tbenj, apd that in a few years tber will enter into aq era qt pros perity which wfl) eiwied tije ex pectation* of tbe most sanguine. All that is needed is industry and economy but above all to maintain that spirit of courage and self-re liance, without which no people, it matters not how favorable their sur roundings, can ever attain any de gree of prosperity. Cotton, in proportion to the price of most other ftr|jp!<*. is no lower than it was a few years agn, ? bale of it will, with the exception of a few article*, purchase as much as it ITOfild when it was high, and this fact ought to bp bop** * n m i"d those who are disposed to ta^o 4 1}?- spondent view of the present situa tion.
