These Alluring head-lines oer
tainly eouhl on t have appeared in
n Southern journal an applying to
present condition in the South.
No, we find I heat in a Northern pa
per,' and each week wo are treated
to a in ana of such rubbish which is
intended to convey the impression
to tho public that thu country is
jre&lly proqperoup.
7'ho fanning olsas of tho South
comprises tlui bulk of our citizen
ship and furnishes the hark bono
of all commercial prosperity. Jllow
many individuals of that class can
go into any Southern bank and se
cure an advanco in actual cash
equal to nioro than twenty per
e?nt on reasonably fair i oljatei al?
nno in fifty uun do it, and why
HOt? Simply because tin? ptospei'r
ity spnkon of as boihg in the North
/loos not ejftond tr? ilio South,
pimply because a long enjoyed *ys
ieni ti robbery by the North of
the South has supped our strength
and ill ad t* of us hewers of wood and
drawers of water to a people of
whom by reason of our natural ad
vantage we should be independent.
1 am heartily Li nil and disgust
ed at this twaddle, about rutin tied
prosperity. If eueli a thing exists,
givo us tangible evidence of it. It
can't be done for thcro is no such
thing, nor will there be an long as
the present larill' luw continues
and hy our flnuccial system three
fourths of the money of the coun
try is permitted to be locked up in
Northern banks for three-fourths
of oaoh year.
Wo pride onrselvea on being n
free people, but i ti reality we oic
no more free than was tho negro
before emancipation. At ?n have
it majority ot that race with ua,
they uUo aro slaves to harder mas
ters than thoaa who owned them
and their allocator# before the pro
tarnation Vf Lincoln.
iiiit, the question may he asked,
what are wo going to do about it?
1 liavo already hinted at l ho rem
edy. Repeal our tariff law and
cuact one that will rji vc equal and
oxaol justice to all. Restore our
'currency ayutcm to that which ex
isted prior to and lastly but
not least, give each atato auu sec
tion the right to fcontrol its own fi
nance* hj^ repeal in ? the, prohibito
ry len per Cenfr-tnx on Stale bank
(?sues. Wiion thrso things are
done, we of tlio South will become
' again independent of the nhylocka
"6f the North, and tiino combined ,
_ With onr hitler experience, will li
ir?K bring about* complete (man-;
