It is said that death and taxes ser
are the two most certain thiols
in the world. I thiuk that the l)urni
next most certain thing is that ^or

times and places theorize on and
**cu8s" and discuss the price of w?r^
cotton. On seeing quite a num- lvnow
ber of bales of the fleecy staple n Pro<
being hauled to town a few days l)0r,e
ago, your correspondent fell a Ca
into a contemplative mood and PaR8e
began to soliloquize somewhat 8rouc
as follows : Did not ' he South- w^'1
ern States make a mistake when ^'
they passed laws destroying the ^ew
bucket shops? The Southern ^le ai
people are all bulls aud the 18 ***'
members ot the New York cotton ^und
exchange who are financially begat
able to do auything are nearly ai'^
all bearB, and it seems that the ^rouj
South in pursuing a suicidal po- ra!,r^
licy when she takes away from ,,f>'
her owu people the privilege of
rendering aggressive bull sup Hn<^ *
port to the cotton market. Daniel * v a'"
J. Sully, the erstwhile cotton '*le (
king, who raised the price of cot- ^
ton a lew years ago to 17 ceuls, ,nau>
did so with the solid support of
the Southern speculators, and ,0
did it in spite oi the combined r,!iKe
opposition of therestof the New H0,s c
York Cotton Exchange Since re8,|l'
the abolition of the bucket shops ' *ie .
in the South the price of cotton ''le 1
has gradually gone down, and ln^ 11
who is thereto help bring it bark
Th
to a good price since the South- 11
ern speculators have been depriv- norm
ed of their only medium of a ^
"boosting" the market? The a
bucket shops doubtless had their ot',or
bad features, but it seems some- wont
what absurd to kill the Southern ren"
bulls on account of a so-called
moral issue and then let the ln& 11
New York bears llourisli like the nec,i
green bay tree. Before destroying
her bucket shops the South *iai*
shou'd have restricted and re PaPe
gulated them and then proceeded ve^' '
to rout the gambling element of wom;
the New York cotton exchange. manJ
This laet we must yet do if we Prcm
would insure a better price lor Inagl
cotton; and if the South will utler
make as great an effort to do HU,C"

prosperity within our palaces". V1?'8
