Fur, as It we;l known, it at for ni' rlj tlie custom to ll in the Vir gitii:t markets jiearlall of the to tmcco growu iu our btate, as we bad uo muiket of our own. iut about S70 or 1S71 the first warehouse of ttij consequence for the sale of leaf tobacco fer established in North Caroliua wus opened in Durham. vhiu!i was rimckly followed broth ers, uud the place at once sprang in to existence as a regular tobacco market. This example thus set bv Durham was followed by other towns ia tbn State, until now we have a number of markets, each competing with the others, and at any of which the planter can sell hi tobacco without bei'mr forced to send it out of the State, as was the case until Durham inaugurated the rtseut system. And not onlv tins. North Carolina tobacco now eniors a higher reputation throughout the woril tnau tnat grown in anj other State of the American Union, whilst orniTlr it was not known at all as North Carolina tobacco, but as Vir- giuia tobacco, owing to the fact that it was nearly all sold on the markets of that State. Now we claim that Durham was the chief cause of the building up of this great reputation which North Carolina tobacco has; first, because she inaugurated the resent system of nous markets for the planter, thus having hia tobac co classed and sold as North Caro- ina tobacco, and, second, because it was through the vim and push of ler great manufacturers, the Dukes and the Iilackwell concern, is spend- t;g uunareas 01 luousands ol dol lars jn advertising their brands,thaV North Carolina tobacco baa become known to the uttermost bounds of the earth. We think, therefore, that we can safelj say that in the repect named Durham has done far more for toe planter than any oth er town in the State. In fact, we de not tliiuk it too much to say that she has done more than all others put together. Dut this ia not all. H takemon of your tvbacco Via any titer niand tn lite Mate. tor it must be remembered that the quantity which we handle is not to be measured by the amount actually sold on our warehouse floors, though that foots op many millions of pounds annually, but in addition there has not been a market in the State where tobacco has not been bought upon the warehouse floors' ind afterwar.ts ek-soID privately and in large quantities to our man- ufacturers, so that after all a great portion of the tobacco iundleihs otukh Ma Is KITS Las had to ' seek a market in Dut ham. Aow our man ufacturers much prefer to bur their own market, and are ready and wil ling to do so if planters will bring it here. And not onH do cur manu facturers desire to buy their slocks at home, but our leaf dealer were mtte laabetkrcoHdttton finaneuiilw than Ihty are to duj, and they, too, are ready and wllliug to take large quantities of your tobacco. Why, liien, haul it oil to other markets? Perhaps it is the hue and cry about '(runts" and "combine." If it is, e will say that as a body we are as much opposed to truids and com binations aa any other town ia the State; nor is Durham any more re ionitibltt for their lorniatioB, if any oxikt, tbau any other tnnrket in the State. The Mews. Duke, who some biiNybodivs in thpir effort to injure this market have charged with enterinz into a "cutter trust aith other large manufacture rs of the country, expressly declare that what they have done in this matter was not done with any view of injuring the farmer in ' the slightest degree, but rather to bene fit him by buying their stock from him directly and without the inter vention of any middle m in; and we repeat, therefore, that as a matter of simple justice, Durham should not beheld responsible for any so called "cutter trust," but that the tobacco growers of the State should continue to give it their confidence and patronage in the future as they have done in the past, because, as a market, it has done far more for them than any other town in the State, and hash right, and, if they will bring it here, will continue to buy more of their tobacco than any other market in North jCarolina, and that, too, at as high prices as can be gotten elsewhere, as we have an outlet forevery pound that can be brought to our warehouses and abundant cash to pay for it.
