What blindness must possess the capitalists
of the United States Il would appear as II
they were bent on their own ruin They are
rushing on in various sections OF the country
into variety of manufactures, although the
tariff of 1876 was cried up as so destructive
to their interests. For example: IN Joliet,
State of Illinois, the qcoollen factory OF Matte
son & Rradner has nearly doubled the amount
of lis machinery in the last year. They now
manufacture about 300 yards of cloth every
dav: vet, if we can believe the panic-makerS.
every yard brings them in debt This manu-
factory is worked by steam; ard the " Jolie'
Signal of the gath ult, states
There are now three full sets OF naachi-
merry in the factory; eleven sets OF cards' o.e
set of which is kept for the purpose OF cara,
ing wool for customers three JACKS one l44
spindles. one 1856. and the other 1885, ana
eleven looms. This establishment has now
on hand abont 10000 yards of cloth. ready
IN exchange for wool and they will have
ao nm yar1s nm hand by the time the new
cI;n coroos in Considering this amount, there
is i,tIe doubt hui that they will be able TO fur
nish cloth for wool as fas! as it may be bro't
in
II obtains wool from every county in the
State. Another example is found III Augusta
county, Virginia, where the Staunton Specta
tor states that " another woollen factory is
about being started on Naked creek. We un-
.derstand the machinery for running 24O spin
dies is lust at hand. Some of the operators
have also arrived, and in few months the
buzz of machinery and the humping OF the
looms is expected to be heard. Success attend
the enterprise, say we; but what about thai
ruinous tariff of '46 that was gong 10 stop all
the factories and furnaces in the land ?"
These and other enterprises show that lndI-
vidnals who understand their own Interests
better than Congress can, consider the present
tariff sufficient for their purposes. Manufac
tories are rising in different portions OF tht
Son,h, and they are worked profahiy. Z" The
Savannah Georgian predicts that few years
hence Georgia will be manufacturing Stat
of no small il portance. The cotton plan
has heretofore been cultivated with reckless
disregard of the waste of the soil, and the pro
duce of the crops has not been spent IN I'M
proving it, The exclusive cultivation OF COT
ion is no longer advantageous. Varou
schemes, having for their object the develop
ment of the internal resources of the State, ar
agitaied, and fair advance has already beeI
made, more particularly in the establishment
Of railroads and manufactures. To these ne'
enterprises The energies of capitalists are grad
