Tobacco Manufacturing,

We announced some time since that Mesrs
VIM. Spear and Jas. o. Swinney, Of this
place, had formed a co-partnership for the
purpose of Manufacturing Tobacco. We
learn from Mr.. Swinney they have already
purchased near four hundred thousand
pounds, OF the best growth Of the past sea-
son; paying for the same from 50 to So 80,
per hundred, according to quality, and have
already begun operations. 1t railways affords
us pleasure to chronicle new enterprises of
any kind-but more particularly Mdnufac-
turing enterprises, designed to work up our
own Agricultural products-give our far
mers home market for their crops-which
are prepared for market here, exported, sold
and returned among US in actual money
Manufacturers are what we want-and
we want them in the right hands-in the
hands of men of energy and capital. We
commend the new firm to the favorable con-
sideration Of growers and consumers, be-
lieving they will do ample justice to both.
