The Cotton Mills OF Maine.

The industrious and able correspondent Of
the Boston Journal, writing over the sigma
ture Of "Topy CandOr," has been at eOnsid-
cradle pains to obvin statistics of the cotton
manufactures and the coalition Of the mills
in this State. We copy from his statement
the following facts Of interest:
"The Kennebec Company in Augusta have
on hand about go bales. The mill Is run
ming on thrce-Quarters time, working IL, 900
spipdles and keeping employed 800 opera
tives. Sheetings and cotton aannels are Prin-
ciJally manufactured.
The mill in Hallowell has not q. single
bale on hand, the company having disposed
their stocks-which was a small amount-at
"A very handsome profit some months ago.
The mill is closed.
Tho lewiston mills are all in operation,
running we believe ON three-quarten time
The Andruscoggin mill which Is reported to
be the best appointed establishment OF the
kind in the country. has on hand about five
mouths supply. The Bates mill which con-
sunes annually say 1000 900 lbs., about the
same amount. The-e mills have recently
been employed in making duck for Govern
ment tent, turning out 5000 yards week
ly. They have lately declared semi-annual
dividend Of per cent. amounting to SiS,-
900. The Hill Hill Company have also de-
clared dividend Of per cent amounting to
$4,000. The gross amour. Of cotton on
hand atthe several Lewiston corporations is
about 1000 bales.
In brunswick, as near aswe can learn, the
brunswick company have stock OF about
10 bales, which they not long ago positive
ly refused to sell, prcferring to keep their
mills in operation.
In Bddeford, the Laeonia corporation now
have stock Of about $500 bales, which, as
now consumed, will last nearly two years.
But one mill Is kept running, and this one Is
confined principally to the manufacture OF
sheeting. line shirtings and cotton aannels.-
The Peppcrell mills, working 20 900 spindlcs
and consuming at tho rate of about 1900
bales per annum in busy time-, have on hand
about the same stock as their neighbors Of
the LAconia. Their stock rs now used will
last say nine months.
In Saco, the York Company, comprising
Eve mills. with an aggregate OF - 900 spin
dies, have ON hand about 1000 bales, using
about Eve bales daily.
Il will DO seen that We have the aggregate
in this State, according 10 the foregoing &C.
innate, is, 40 bales OF cotton on hand, or
supposing bale weighs on On average 4I0
pounds, ,2i7 400 pounds. Fifteen thousand
bales probably cost, including all expenses,
about IL cents per pound, and II sold ut the
present rates splendid profit would accrue
70 the holders. Not bale however, Is In
