.qmssican Manufactures.

We deem, il a duty, as we ever find
1t pleasure, to notice the progress Of
the manufactures of our country; they
are the thews and sinews of indcpend-
ence, and we believe that the prosperity
of our country is 10 be tested by the ex-
tent of its manufactures. This spirit oil
improvement has gone forth, and We
see its effects in the piles which occupy
the borders of almost every stream in
our Union. The dfays which occasion
ally block vp the narrow files of Mar
ket-street, are now loaded with boxes
of American .sheetings, instead of the
feeble web OF India-and broadc!oths
of every quality of american fabric are
SUP !snting the use of British manufac-
tures-this is the proud march of a ma
tion towards independence. These re-
MARKS were ELECTED for noticing an arti-
Gle in the Wheeling, Va. Gazette, which
states chat Competing, as nandsor e, and
far Superior ia quality to most Scotch
and Fe-ait;an earpeting imported, is now

ufactory in Steubenville, it may be well

at this place do 4oaour TO the spirit and
