Manufacture of Cotton.

Here is an article from the New Orleans Ores.
cent, which we wish every capitalist and cotton
planter in the State of Mississippi to read and re-
feet upon;
THE ADVANTAGE OF CoTToN MANUFACToRIEs-
When Cotton is ten cents a pound, the charges
attending its transportation to Liverpool amount to
over four cents a pound. The cotton which
comes back to us in the manufactured fabrics
paws first, the charges of export, profit to the
manufacturer, and all the charges attending the
return. New Orleans exports 100000 bales,
which, at ten cents, would amount TO S45 200, 600
The cost of transportation will more than cover al
the expense of converting the raw article into
yarns and the various kinds of cloths. So that if
the English would spin and weave for nothing It
would be a better business for rs to manufacture
it at home, and pay our own people for their work
This million, worth now only S45, 00O, GEO. if con-
verted into yarns and coarse cottons, will be
worth 81 so, 100000. If it is asked how this
wealth is to be retained, the answer is obvious
Divert part of the slave labor from the field to
the factory. Diminish the quantity of the raw
material and increase that of the manufactured
This will keep up the prices of both The banks
of the Mississippi the true places for Cotton
! Mills The supply of fuel is nexhaustiblc. Coal
floats down to the factory by the cheapest channel
in the world Corn, flour meat all the comfort,
of life, will be brought to the gates of the fctory

cheapest operatives. Thus instead Of paving a
way millions on the cost of freight, millions for
the labor of foreign artisans and the use of for
eign capital, we can save all this. If England
can afford to buy our cotton, carry it across the
Atlantic manufacture it. and then re-ship i. to Til
country, can we not afford TO make ii at home -
Why should there not be a factory upon every bias

ploying slave labor in agriculture exclusively, i,

favor of the labor from departments suffering from

owners have the energy and boldness to engage IN
