Memphis, one Of the largest and bcs. cottor
inarts Of the South. Aud this circumstance, tc.
gcther with the fac. TINT m average Of about
four dollars per bale is paid a3 freight. TO place
this raw material in The hands Of Eastern man.
ufnctuEcrs, we hare unhesitatingly urged as
inviting the attention Of capitalists, to CON.
mence on this side Of the lakes, and in our own
market, the product Of fabrics Of the cheaper

done. The temptation is too real and practical
not to win that practical solution that shall give
US busy looms and spindles On this side of the
LAKES.

things, we muy welcome any enterprise here
that tends in the direction Of reducing the raw
material Of cotton to some one Of Its numerous
forms Of utility. Not long nee, German
