Hints on Manufacturing.

Cotton Factory IN Albany. A company has
been formed in this city, under the general man
ufrcturing law, with capital of 100000, for
the manufacturing of cotton fabrics i here will
be from go to 100 looms, which will be worked
by steam This will give employment to some
200 persons, and will be a vast acquisition to
that portion of our city. 1t is the intention of
the company to manufacture only printing and
cotton cloths, and not to PRINT.
Albany Zoe. Jour.
In the judgment of Albanians, steam poiOer will
pay in the manufacture OF cottons Such is the
result of experiments in Newouryport There
are advantages, however, in Newburyport, which
should be brought into account: the coal for the
steam and the cotton are landed direct from the
ships-so there is no inland freight to be paid
As offsets in Vermont: wood is cheaper than
COAL and less capital would be required for land,
building materials and subsistence.
Now look at another important collateral fea-
ture of the case. A capital of 100000 is to
give direct labor to 200 people. On the average
each one Of those persons will support at leas
one more-as wife or child; and SO this mod
crate amount of capital is to add 400 TO the pop
ulatlon of Albany. Nor is this all: to house a
population of 400, buildings must be had-to
build and furnish these houses and clothe the in
mates, mechanics must be had to feed them
doctor them, educate them, and defend them, a
new demand is made for farmers, traders, doctors
teachers, lawyers and-so forth and SO on a i
adding still more to the population and The bust
ness of the place where such factory is loca-
ted. Are not these hints worth considering !? Is
not capital thus used-thus improved made
to produce it not pro6tably employed? Were
the owners of rea. estate and the merchants and
traders Of any town like ours to form a joint
stock company for this purpose, we believe the
investment would pay well, even if the goods
manufactured no more than compensated for the
actual cost: we mean to say, OF course, that the
incidental advantages of the business would a.
lone amount to handsome profit on the capital
What are the objections? Bring on your rea-
sons, neighbors, if you are not iavorably dispos
ed to this view of the matter.
