COTTON MANUFACTURERS IN ALABAMA.


We are pleased to see that the attention of
our people is being earnestly directed toward
the erection of cotton factories. At Pratts-
Vile, IA miles from Montgomery, upon Swift
Creek, the factory of Mr.. Daniel Pratt is al
ready in operation, giving occupation to $50
laborers-men, women and children One
mile above Pratts Vile, upon the same creek,
is the site of the new factory being establish
ed by our felow-citizens, Messrs Hunter s.
Faber the machinery for which has just
been received from Liverpool. At Autausya-
vile, 25 miles from Montgomery, preparations
are being made to resume operations at the
factory upon Autauga Creek. and i'm q few
weeks we may expect to hear the hum of the
spindIes These three factories of Autauga,
upon creeks which supply an unfailing water
power, will give employment to not less than
1 200 men, women and children. A company
of capitalists is examining the Falls of the
Coosa above Wetumpka, with view to
erect an extensive factory at that future Low
ell of the South. This will be but the pio-
neer of others, for the situation at Wetumpka,
being once developed, nothing can prevent;
that village from becoming the manufactur--
ing seat Of Alabama. The fine water power
at Tallahassee has already invited the enter
prise of fourishing manufacturing conpa
ny, which is at present increasing its ma
chinery, and extending its sphere of useful
ness and profit.-Montgomaery Mail.
