MANUFAcToRY IN FLoRrDA.--The Pensacola
Gazette describes the Arcadia Cotton Factory,
which is now in successful operation. 1t is
worked entirely by slave labor, runs twenty
four loops, and turns out 1000 yards of cotton
per day. The problem, according to the Gaz-
cite, is here solved Of the adequacy Of slave
labor to manufacturing purposes. The. Guzette
remarks, that the cost Of the raw material is
the great element Of expense in the manufac-
turing Of coarse cotton goods. When cotton
is worth 6 cents per pound at Pensacola, it is
worth a cents laid down at Lowell. Here is
a difference then Of just one-ffth, or twenty
centsin the dollar. The A arcadia Factory will,
when completed, work up 1000 pounds per
day. Here is q clear saving Of SIS per day in
the raw material alone, enough probably to
feed all the operatives engaged in the work"

the town, with bis whole force. Leaving a
small force to occupy chihuahua, Gov. Price
started in pursuit Of Trias and followed him
up to the well built and defensibIe town Of
Santa Cruz de Rosales. On demanding the
surrender Of the place, he was informed by
Gov. Trias that he could not enter the town, as
a treaty Of peace, or armistice, had been agreed
upon between the United States and Mexico
Negotiations then ensued, Gen. Price then
cOnsenting to wait four days for the return Of
a special messenger who had been despatched
to the city Of Mexico for a copy of the alledg-
ed treaty or armistice. He was induced to
grant this delay, in order to bring up some of
his troops, which he had left behind, as the
town presented a very formidable appearance
being well defended with cannon and a large
body Oftroops. On theE7th day of the nego-
~tialions, the express messenger not having re-
turned and Gen. Price being reinforced with
more troops and artillery, he began his prepa-
rations to attack the town.
Early on the eighth day after his arrival Al
Santa Cruz, the cannonading commenced, and
was kept up on both sides for some time very
briskly. AT IL of that day, Gen. Price arrang-
ed his forces to storm the place, when a rumor
reached him that a force of 900 ~lancers were
about to attack him in the rear, which caused
him to draw of his forces to protecthis wagons.
The report turning out to be untrue, the Gem
eral again advanced against the town in three
divisions, commanded severally by Colonies
Bolles and Lane, and Major Walker. who as
saulted at three different points, The town,
like all Mexican towns, being we'll adapted for
defence, the streets being raked by cannon and
the turrets of the houses being covered with
the enemy, was able to make quite q
vigorous resistance. But it WASH vain against
the indomitable courage and energy of our
brave western boys, who pushed on regardless
OF the constant fire Of the enemy's artillery,
and having entered the town, reverted to the
plan OF operations so successfully employed at
Monterey, of cutting into and through the hou-
ses, driving the enemy through the tops. In
this way our troops finally succeeded in COOP
ing the enemy up in the public Plaza, where
they were completely surrounded, and after a
short resistance, surrendered at discretion.
Among the prisoners were Gov. Trias and the
other official dignitaries, and forty-two officers
Fourteen fine brass pieces, four wall guns and
a large quantity of small arms were captured,
and about one hundred Mexicans were killed
in the action. The loss Of the Americans was
five killed and twenty wounded-two of whom
afterwards died.
The prisoners were all released except the
Governor and State officers. Gen. Price, the
next day after the battle, returned to Chihua-
hua, leaving Col. 'BOlles with * companies in
charge atSanta Cruz de Rosales. When M.
left Chihuahua everything was quiet

United States by the accession of Senator
Foote to that body of grave and dignihed men.
SO low has he sunk himself that not a single
Senator can be found who will deign to reply
to his daily, Utmost hourly attacks. What a
contrast between him and Davis. AS a mere
indication Of the estimation in which he is
held by his wi party in the North, we give
a short extract from a letter from a New York
Democrat to friend in this place:
"Speaking Of Senator Foote-I think he
confers no great honor on your State, to say
the least. dislike exceedingly the way he
carries himself in the Senate; he has rendered
himself almost contemplate in the eyes even
Of his friends"
