Officer of regiments engaged in that glorious field, re-
questing every possible information about the relatives
of the offic.ers and men that fell—name—rank—age)

cotton used, and the value of the cloth annually

the subject is extracted from a memorial, drawn °pi
by the cotton manufacturers of Providence and itt
ticiiiity :—" It has been s►tisfactorily ascertained,
that in the small district alone comprised within s
circle of 30 miles from Providence, there are isotl
less than 140 manufactories, containing in actual 1
operation more than 130,000 spindles, capable crl'
holding a m►►ch larger number, few of them basin

cvds, the weaving of which, at the average price of

eight cents, amoents to 2,227300 dollars, and the
total value of 'he cloth will exceed 6,000,000 of
dollars. To complete the manufacture from the raw
material, until the goods are fit for market, it is
estimated would afford steady and constant employ-
ment to 9.0,000 persons."
