Mechanics and Manufacturers.
Our neighbors, IT. the surrounding towns,
and along the coast OF the Mississippi, are
not aware of the fact that any kind of work
IN the mechanic branches can be done in
this city, in the very best manner, at short
Dotice--and low prices. Within the past
year many shops have sprung into exis-
tence that are daily manufacturing every
article necessary for agricultural, or COM
merse--for utility, ease, or elegance.
We know that Planters and dealers gen.
orally, only want to be satisfied of the fact
that they can purchase articles manufactur.
ed here as cheap as the same articles can
be brought from other places, TO pstronize
home industry
What operates materially against manu-
.lacturers in the South. is the mania that
every now and then comes over our people
for cheap things" "Cheap goodsu is the
cry. Give us cheap usehold wares
cheap Wagons, carts and garages, cheap
clothes, cheap lite nature and cheap laws.'
This cry proceeds from sudden commercial
panics, which is the result of an unstable
money market-from falling to the
metallic basis, from inflated paper curren-
c'es. These nanics must inevitably come
now and then, but they can be guarded
against by the people II is this that un-
fixes the value of things, acting prejudiciall y
TO trade both ways It's this that sends
up a cry every now and then for cheap
things and they come forth from every
machine shop, ratified together in such a
manner that they will scarcely bear the
wind TO blow at them. Purchasers should
take into consideration the manner in which
work is done, and every man should be a
Judge of the character Of work and not be
deceived with the tinsel glitter that every
thing wears that comes upon l,s from YAM
kec land
Those people have no reputation to loose
here, whereas our own mechanics have
We do not contend that we can las long as
we have ''pec"l'ar institutUns''; manufac-
ture Tor other markets all we aspire to do
rs TO satisfy our own; and this can be done
by encouraging our workmen. We address
ourselves now, not to the bloated nabob
who believes nothing good, that has not
D foreign savor--and who sends his shirts
abroad to be washed because of the miser-
able quality of home starch we are not
talking to these people, we address oursel-

THE Book CoNcERN.---The follow
ing extract from one Of the New York
letters ofan exchange paper accounts
for the delay in adjusting the question
Of dividing the Methodist Book Con
Germ situated in New York.
The long pending difficulty between
the Methodist Churches North aud
South in respect to the mammoth book
concern in this city has not yet been
finally disposed Of, although the princi-
pie involved was decided by the T. s.
Circuit Court in favor Of the Church
Southland the Church North has de-
tcrmned not 10 appeal. The cause of
the delay is said to be the confused
state Of the accounts of their concern
which the most skillful book-keepers
find difficult to unravcl and until these
accounts are Strengthened out it will 10
impossible to ascertain the value Of the
concern. The fact il the Book Con.
Germ has been in the hands Of the most
strpid and incompetent men that could
have been called from the whole field
Of the Methodist denomination. They
may have been abundantly blessed
with piety but they have not had the
least modicum Of business tact and have
gone on heaping blunder upon blunder
until the financial department is in
almost inextricable confusion. The best
way to settle the matter would be to
sell out the whole concern to the high
est bidder and to divide the proceeds.

Retirement of MIR. Clay.

It is announced that the Hon. Henry Clay has
positively resigned his seat in the United States SEN
atc and will spend the remainder of the winter in
Philadelphi in the hope of beneftting his feeble
health. He will be seventy-six in April next and
consequently in the present state of his health this
may be regarded his final exit from public life
Of course there have been and differences OF
opinion in regard to Mr.. Clay's and political
principles, but few if any men in the United States
will be followed into retirement by much personal
devotion or as many hearty wishes for their welfare
