-WALTHAM COTTON MANDATORY.
From Letters on the Eastern States, recently
Published.
The Cotton Mandatory at Waltham.
near Boston, one of the largest and best
managed in the United States, was begun
at period when manufactures we're de-
pressed, and many of the establishments
we're discontinued; one 10 the immediate
vicinity, Of considerable extent, had ceas-.
ed working. Under these discouraging
appearances, this mandatory was set on
foot by five or six gentlemen, who had
sufficient capital to meet the delays alien
dant upon an incipient establishment, and
in both their purchases and sales, TO take
advantage Of the market. They had a
large stake in the undertaking, add every
thing was done with precaution and solid
lily. They first secured water power,
which gave them an ample certain supply
at all seasons. They then erected large
substantial buildings. Having procured
the best mechanics, they began by de-
grees to put up their machinery, making
il certain by experiment that they were
Of the best and most approved kind.
Their machinery is consequently superior
to any other 10 the United States, and is
not surpassed by the most perfect 10 Eng
land. They now consume about 100000
pounds Of cotton annually, and keep near
.ly 200 looms, moved by water, in con-
slant operation.
