The determination OF the Southern people 10
Withdraw their patronage from the North is
beginning 70 tell III the way best calculated to
bring that section to It's senses.
The New York ,jvu,mal ~ Lommsrce closes
IN article on the effects Of! the non-intercoursc
movements in the South. with ,he following
significant REMARKS:
The South has bceu making gradual pro-
grcsS III the mechanic arts for many years past,
lad Factories for tho cOar>er cotton and wooden
fabrics have been put in operation in many
States 50 that this movement is no new thing.
but has simply received all unusual and marked
impetus, for reasons already given. The chief
difficulty 81 the South, in extending her efforts
Ia successful practical results, has been her lack
0fmcchanlcS and mechanical skill. She has been
almost wholly an agricultural power. Her labo-
rcrS Slaves are chiefly farmers the whites,
merchants AMI professional men. She HOW
looks for operatives to aid her in carrying on
her mechanical enterprises. and already has she
engaged the services of many such from the
North. Northern mechanics. and all who arc
willing To engage in 4 legitimate and honorable
occupation, are most desirable acquisitions to
the South, and are cordially welcomed. We
learn that never before was so large an emf
grafton of this class to the South known. The
Inducements to go South are unusual for not
only are the wages considerably larger than
are paid here, and the expenses Of living solnr.
what less. but in mani parts OF the North com.
paints Of hard times have begun to be heard.
S"'ie are ont Of employ, As is always the case
in the winter season, and others arc working
at reduced wages. The Chelsea Mass. NeyaM
r~cl'orlS dull times there. the best carpenters
being glad 10 get work at 81 ~ per day, and
go"l w]orl:lnen commanding only - cents
Painters, it is said, will not average 80 cents Il
day the coming winter; sh~ip-carpentcrs are
ont Of employ, and 1nasons have gone into the
country" The prospects Of I'LL such would be
improved, at least Tor the present, by going
South.
