The Mineral Wealth of S. C.-We
have been favored with the sight of a
Report submitted by Committee, to the
Stockholders of the South Carolina Manu-
featuring Company, which is engaged in
the manufacture of Iron, in Spartanburgh
District. This Company, the Report in
forms us, took possession Of its works,
then in a very incomplete state, in No
vember 1884. From that time to No.
vember 1885, the Stockholders paid in
$4,000; and since then they have not
paid in another dollar, except from the
profits of the works. They are engaged
actively in making iron of all sorts, cast
ings and nails. They had been in opera
ton, from Nov. 1884, to Jan. ls41, six
years and two months, and in that time,
under their energetic and skilful manager,
Mr.. William Clark, they have paid, up,
from the profits of the business, $4,000
towards their capital, making it now
100000 paid in. They made, during
the year 1910, $4,000 worth Of iron
castings and nails, and declared nett
profit on their business, for the year of,
s26,692 81, or more than 26 per cent
The operations of the present year, we
understand, promise equally well.
Mr.. Clark may be said to be the foun-
der of new branch of industry amongst
us. He has, by extraordinary preser-
!, vance, and devotion to business, joined
with very accurate knowledge of all the
operations connected with it, succeeded
beyond any other person amongst us, in in
developing sources of wealth, as valuable
, to the public, as they have proved remu'
, neratlng to those associated with him.
+ We are gratifed to learn that he has late
ly become largely interested in the Nesblt
Iron, Works, situated at the head ofnaviga
ton on the Broad River, of which he ha
E the management, and where his sphere o
: operations will be greatly enlarged.

Why did the Banks in North Carolina suspend
specie payments? Can any of our friends in that
State solve this question! The Editor of the Oh.
serrer, at Fayetteville, says "that an excessive is
sue of notes is among the last reasons which can be
properly assigned for the suspension in this State"
He goes to say also, that sour Banks did not sus
pend for want Of specie" Well, if they rad not
issued too much paper and if it was not for want of
specie we should be pleased to learn what could
have created the necessity. We can conceive &C
other reasons which would render such course ne
ccssary.

INDIAN EM1eRATIoN.--The Steamer
James Adams, in the Government service,
arrived at this port on Monday afternoon,
having on board one hundred and five In
dians, cmigraling TO Arkansas. Major
Bellnap, who has been charged with the
duty of Transporting these Indians to their
new home, was on board, accompanied by
Lieut.. Sprague, Mr.. Caprrs, Disbursing
Agent, Dr.. Randall, and Mr.. Cloud Of the
Paymaster's Department.
The party of Indians on board the
Adams was made up Of fragments Of diff
ferent tribes, Tallahassees, Mickasukies,
Scminoles, &c. Among them were thirty
warriors, the remainder were women and
children. The Spanish Indians captured
by Col. Harney, were also on board.
From conversation had with the Off
Ger, We learned that Brig had sailed from
Tampa, having on board one hundred and
ten, embracing Echo Emathla, the Chief
Of The Tallahassccs, with ninety of his
people, ard also that one hundred and
fifty were in with Gen. Armistead at the
time the Adams departed. The aspect of
affairs in the East is favorable to close
of the war. Wild Cat had gone in to
Col. Worth, at For, Cummings, also, Cos
a-tus-ta-nug.gce, one Of the most war.like
chiefs, who promised to 60 ont and bring
in all of his party.
The Tallallassecs were all in except
Tiger-tail, and a little party headed by
him comprising only about forty, among
whom were but eighteen warriors. Tiger
lail had been frequently in at Tampa of
late, and said he was tired of fighting and
wanted ",o be friends with the white
