Any man who will "look over
North Carolina, and note her con
dition, will see that she is on the
verge of a financial crisis, and is' in
a most distressed condition gene
rally. Iet ns now consider her re
sources, her present condition, the
cause of that, - condition and the
cure.
livery cereal or grain, every spe
cie's of grass, vevery leguminous
llant, every lierry,- every fruit tree
and every vine common to the
temperate zone, together with ricp,
''"tobacco and cotton attain perfec
tion in her soil. At the great Ex-.
(Mtsitiou held at Atlanta, in 1881,
- all the States of the South, and
. many of the West, vied with each
other in showing to the world their
respective resources. In that grand
exhibition, North Carolina was
second to none. Her minerals
were surpassed by no other State,
either in quality oi numbers; her,
d ispla y of d i Here n t species of woods
excelled all others; !her cotton
ranked with the. best, exempt the
Sea Island; she Imre awto ' the
palm on tobacco, and it was an old
bag of North Carolina wheat, set
ting almost unnoticed, by the door
of that, mighty building, that won
the premium. !
From the county of Nash, to the
Tennessee line, her hills and moun
tains are richly stored with miner
als of all kinds,- especially aliouud
ing in gold, copper,! iron of the
finest quality, and mica; near the
ocean are elements of nutrition for
the soil, not found in other quarters,
while in the waters ;of the Albe
marle Sound and rivers tributary
are facilities for,the most extensive
Ashing industry in the world.'
Her swamp lands, j situated in
the counties jf the East, though
they have long been ia source of
great ptotit by reason of the cypress
'shingle trade, have never been suf
tieiently appreciated. I ' It : is ' esti
mated that at least j one million
acres of these landsj capable of
.producing 'ten barrels of corn to
the acre, are till un tit ted for culti
vation. Ii. productiveness and the
susteneiiee they will afford to ani
mal life," they are susceptible of le
ing made the Egypt of the South.
They are so rich,., ho well supplied
with organic as well as inorganic
matter, that they will wear as well
as the liest bottom lands of Ar
kansas and Texas. There are lands
iu the County oi" Hyde, which have
been cultivated for century, with
out any apparant diminution of
their fertility. I.aniU like these
are more valuable than naval stores
or mines of gold and silver.
She has siitlieictit water power
to run the united h oiiis of lieeds,
Lowell. Manchester, nVw York and
London: yet the sung it the spin
die is heard . on ..but few of her
streams and rivers. Eor sheep

valleys of the West are as good as
the Itest past me holds of Texas
and Australia: yet ve export no
wool." Almost all parjsof the State
rtre-ennneeted by railroads, steam
boats and telegraph hues; and, at
last, the extreme Kast and West
are united by a band lit, iron", which
is "all that was needed

of
many different persons, each
of;
whom makes a living, and many,
large fortunes, by the, "handling,"
as they term it. For these, to
gether with its precious handling,
the farmers have to pay, with the
proceeds of cotton which sold at (I
cents ier inmnd.
Faiicy bulk meat at b" cents per
pound, by the car load, and cotton
at from 0 to U cents; corn at 1.25
per bushel, when it might be raised
here at from 40 to'."0 cents.
In 1882 eighty -six thousand tons
of guano were sold in North Caro
lina, principally for the cultivation
of cotton, averaging 4." per ton,
amounting to the sum of three mil
lions, eight hundred and seventy
thousand dollars.
Four hundred thousand bales of
cotton were prodaced, which, at
40 per bale, amounted to sixteen
million dollars. '
We see from these figures that
the guano used actually- cost al
most one-fourth the proceeds of'
the entire cotton crop.
Now subtract the 3,870,000, Ex
pended for guano, from the -?rc,-000,000,
the. value of the cotton
crop, ami we have remaining 12,-'i
130,000, which, if equally divided
among' the 1,500,000 inhabitants of
North Carolina, would only give to
each the pitiful sum of eight dol
lars and eight aiid two-thirds cents.
Think of it! Why the inmates of
the Insane Asylum are allowed
$210, and the Penitentiary con
victs 208 per year.
Hut it will be said by some, that i
the 12,lo0,000 are not equally di- i
yided and, therefore, the above ar
gument furnishes no reason tor the
extreme scarcity of money in our I
State: Ave answer that objection bv I
n bv i
the following proposition, Jto-wit:
If 12,130,000 the proceed of
the cotton crop remaining after de
ducting the sum expended for fer
tilizers, be about all the money in
circulation in , North Corolina; and
if it be true that said sum equally
divided among the 1,500,000 in
habitants, would give to each per
son only eight, dollars and eight
. u '
and two-thirds eents:-it is plain to ''!
' 1 1
any one that whetbri divided

scarcity must remain the same, lbrl
if one man or men obtains more !
than hi or tliejr share, another or
others must have less, or none. !

Versing Avith an intelligent
Baltimore reliant, recently, he
remarked, -North Carolina is a big
State, and has' a big name, but O,
there are so many breaks! Are not
your tanners very poor!
1,1 this article we do not wish to
be understood as reflating in th
'expect to be so charged, and will
have oulv themselves to censnrej
for their folly
We have shown the resources ot j
North Carolina, her present 'de-j
pressiou financially and industri-j
ally, and the principal cause of that j
depression.
It only remains, to recommend j
the cure, which was necessarily ;
suggested in stating the cause.!
This can be, done iu one sentence,
We must raise corn, meat, and i
all other articles we have been
purchasing from the-West, here at
home, and ilanf cotton only as a
surplu or extra crop,
In addition to this, we must make
our fertilizers, by manipulating the
decayed accumulations in lence
corners, cleaning off ditch' embank-
i ments, - composting muck, straw,
ashes, lime, stable .manure, and
other ingredients.
; The fanners allow themselves to j
cr(p goes into the pockets ot others
s we have shown, and he has
nothing but a little corn left, no
meat, no sugar, no coffee, no flour
and no money.
Whereas, if he wouhLrai.se his
own meat, plant the ninety acres
in corn, wheat, ieas; potatoes, &c,
and then, if possible, cultivate the
other ten in cotton as an extra
or surplus, crop;! on the 2."th day ot
Deceiulier he would nave noui i,o
u .um miu,v, ,
would be free from the blierin s
hammer-and the commission mer
chant, with ,the cotton raised on
the' ten acres, could buy his sugar,
cotl'ee and clothing, aud still have
something left.
If the farmers of North Carolina
adopt this latter course,
"Instead of the thorn shall come !
up the lirnee, aim iriMcan m-
briar shall come up the myrtle. ;
"And thev shall build houses!
and inhabit them, and ! they shall I
plant vineyards, and eat the fruit j
thereof. They shall not build an d ,
another inhabit them; they shall
not plant and another eat." j

of persons who will condemn this!
