Th remedy tor the many evils in volvod in audi a situation ha lirwiv* 1 A*? r? 1...4 ** ! uvvu iuii^ iwia^ut, Dill UUlll III1 present in vain. It seems to hav been found in the employment o bonding or surety eompanies a strengthened of local warehouse companies. The latter, by beini bonded in one of the surety com pnnies, are enabled to issue cer K'fieates, or receipts acceptabh as gilt-edged collateral not onb in local banks, but in the financia ^enters of tho country. That i the simple theory upon which i is belioved a marked change i about to take place in the South In the description of the bondec warehouse at Charlotte tho do laiis 01 mo transactions with tin warehouse of a fanner having ; bale of cotton and needing casl are succinctly sot forth. Thej sV'oru to demonstrate that tin fanner will bo placed in a mor< independent position in the hand lin<; of his cotton that heretofore and thai this system will con Jtowards ihe prevention o real or art'lieial dopi-e^-ions hj I ho presoni necessity, which com pels farmers to rnsle their eottoi !to the market a< >0011 ?is picked The farmer bringing a bale t< market will be enabled to phua itvi 11 the- warehouse at a moderati cost, secure from l.lie hank the l c;r,sh which to meet his debt; jVomptly, and having wiped then out, he in a better position U continue life on a cash basis. The * volume of the currency will bo enlarged at the same time by perfect and natural process, and local banks will enjoy a greater business. Moreover, Soul hern cot | ton mills will be enabled to carry cotton in these bonded warehouses. and the leading financiers of Baltimore, to whom the plan lias been presented, state that, under such a system it would be possible lor the South to get money on its cotton in financial! circles at from 1 to b per cent., | according to the prevailing rate. as cotton in gu<*h warehouses [ would be regarded as gilt-edge; - collateral. Much seems to be the promise! , 'of the new system.

It i-; ' : plan worthy of - ;i stu !y o:i he pari <>!' the l.uslmss men, .nker , manulael urers ami plantej?ws. par!ieularly planters. The South Carolina act of 18' 1 I ! was inspired by Mr. Charles K.j II j Oliver, treasurer and general j ! manager of the Columbia Mills j 1 Co., Columbia, 8. C. In a let tor j > to the Manufacturers1 Record Mr. j e ( ) 1 I V t > ? HM'ilo. | / ? ? vi i 11 vr "The main feature of the law 1 j is that it creates the bonded ware I house, and in addition to the H I i capital of the warehouse company, v the holders of the certificates are further protected by the surety 1 bond of some trust company. The 1 general warehouse law of South Carolina is a very complete meass ure, offering every reasonable 0 protection. The new law in quesn tion adds to this by giving an ad^ ditional financial protection from K the guarantee of the surety com0 pany, a desirable collateral in any ^ financial center, and it is surrounded with all the protection that can possibly be given to anv ! evidences of security. 7 I j; UA standard warehouse issuing I a certificate of this kind enables j not only the manufacturer but the planter to store his cotton, i and with the certificate to get adI vances from any financial institution, and, in my judgment, it will , prove a great help to the planter, A inasmuch .is the character of the { security demanding the lowest , rate of interest, he is relieved of , any extraordinary charges such ^ as it is necessary for the factor to charge when he carries the cotton for the planter. In1 the case of tlie warehouse coin-; ,! puny, they simply charge a lair . rate to cover the storage and in jsuranco. The certificates, when 'issued, state plainly the amount j of storage charge per hale per J month and the amount for which J t he cotton represented hy the . certificate is insured. ? "This warehousing system t should put the holders of cotton i in a position to obtain their nion) ey at the lowest rate of interest that prevails." Refore presenting the detailed plan of operation as given in the letter from Charlotte, the .Manufacturers1 Uncord lias submitted the matter to a number of leading financiers. Without exception they have said that it. is a revolutionizing plan, and that while there may be some obstructions in the way of working out the system at the start, it promises ?o make the entire cotton crop available to the South as a ready asset for credit, and give to this section a very great po-sihl" e\ tension of hanking facilities, il is to bo hoped that in the work ng out of the idea nothing wi'I develop to lessen the present promise of benefits to the South.

The people will have to wait for the wise doctors at the next meeting of the Medical Association to tell them what that other thing'' is. It is said that the acreage in sugar cane will ho increased more than 100 per cent, this year as compared with last year, near Orkland, Clarendon county. It is hoped by those interested in the Negro Cotton Mill, now being bnilt in Columbia, that they will ue able to set the machinery in motion by the middle of April. There is a farmer in Union county, and a good farmer, too, who has never used matches or kerosene oil. He reads by the traditional pine knot and "carries'' lire from Christmas to Christmas. Mr. J. H. Hayes, of ltoclc Hill, has been appointed as agent for the Catawba Indians, l?y (lovornor Ellorbe. There are 2d prisoners in the Yorkville jail. The number of liens lor ad vanccs being recorded in the clerk's ollice breaks all previous records. Clerk Wylie does not remember to have handled no many before so early in the year, lie does not think, however, that the aggregate of tho season will ho greater than last year; but is of the opinion that for some reason the liens are being brought in about a month earlier. The amounts of lions range from about #10 up to #1,000. Tho average of 'JO. selected at random one day last week was #75.10.? Vorkville Enquirer. !
