Just for a curiosity, wo would Uko to soe a luve altair carried.oft th lt la In books. mah n?? y Icitd a woman tc the al but it ends there, COTTON Oit rm; li IT i Ju ! now there In no question so In tero?tin*, to thc people of this section of the ntute a? what the farmer will do with his cotton and the effects of his action on the welfare of the country. There are muuy perBons of many minds on th!? question as on every other. Some say the farmer should Bell at the present price; others that should hold for higher prices. Some are of the opinion that there ls bound to bc a loss If cotton bc sold for less than ten cents u pound; others that cottou can bo made far eight cents, and we have heard of one large farmer In this county who says his cotton does not cost him more than six cents. Then there nre many persons who. think the loss caused to thc farmer In the impairment of lils credit, and to business generally through a con? tlnued stagnation wafting on cotton to be sold, will more than offset the pres ent IOBB If cotton be sold at present prices and the money received therefor be placed in circulation. The arguments of many apply of course to the farmer who ls In debt. If there wore no farmers. In debt, there would be no cotton problem. Then the individual farmer could do as he pleases, and thc country would pros per anyway. Rut so long as the far mer has mortgaged his pros pective crop to the banker or tho merchant, it really does not belong to tho farmer after his debt becomes duo. The question then becomes a personal ono between the farmer and bis - banker, his merchant or thc person to whom he ls indebted. If he can arrange to borrow money on IIIB cotton at a warehouse and puy hts debts, then lt behooves him to do this and save his credit. Or if he can store his cotton with his creditor and se cure an extension on his obligation, this is also a privilege and a duty to do this. But if neither of these courses nor an/ other is open to the farmer, as a business man, who values his credit, he must sell for what he can get and preservo his credit' That la worth more to him and as a, heritage for his. children than to save a little money and lose' the confidence of thoso with whom ho has been doing business and thus have lt said 'He would not pay his debts." Then thero are those who contend that tho farmer has had several years 9f prosperity, and that he can stand a loss on one year's crop. Of course ev eryone knows that the difference of even one cent a pcund in tho price of the South's staple money crop will mean a great deal less money in circu lation-and financial loss to tho entire South -nd every business la,lt. It is ?*pWre? ?Ha?* W? jiwMot rououwn ex ists, and it we could we would placo the price of cotton, today at 15 dents a pound and guarantee that it would re main that. Wc hopi, sincerely, that the price will be advanced soon, and that wo shall be saved thia loss. But facts aro stubborn things, and it Beams a rather gloomy prospect just now. . \ The Intelligencer would Dot Hsve any who can do otherwise sacri fice his cotton crop, and we trust that the farmers who can hold will not of fer a bale for sale. We also hope that the banker, business mob, or money man who has debtors, and cac do so, will Indulge them to tho very farthest limit. One's banker ls a safo man to go to for advice in matters financial, and it tho farmer will go to his; bankor and place thc matter in his hands, in' ninety-nine casca out of a hundred he elli not suffer for the trust,placed. Bankers and other business mini are but human, and if they find that the (Armer, or any debtor, is trying to dodge a debt, or not mako proper et torts to pay lt, he will get suspicious and distrustful of that man's honesty. So, Ur. Dehtor, go to your creditor and talk lt over with him. Frankness often destroys distrust and creates better feelings all round. Hold your cotton If you can hut if lt ls a chc?*-j of toeing on your cotton or losing your credit let the cotton .go. Your credit is .tho more valuable. AS A BUSINESS MAN REES IT.
