In Western Pennsylvania, The upper

tefn part Of Ohio, manufacturers Of cotton
wool, silk, paper, vooden ind stoneware,
&c. Ac., abound. Within n circle of tween.
ty miles from Mt. Pleasant, Ohio. there
are probably two hundred manufacturing
establishments Of different softs, and con.
sta ntly increasing. At Cnaboga Falls. n
little village near Akron, Ohio. are some
eight or ten immense paper mills, as well
de other manufactures. In Akron, nearly
