NJ. Editor Our attention has

President of the Mississippi Central
Railroad, and Hon, c. c. Shacklc-

leans, Jackson y Great Northern
Railroad, and now at the head of the
affairs of the Gulf & Ship Island
Railroad, in regard to the reduction

ALLY, but more especially of those
necessaries of life, which our people
in the South, by stress of misfortune
and failure of crops, have been and
are compelled TO purchase IN the
more northern States. Tho high
prices OF corn, flour and bacon are III
a large measure attributable to the
unusual transportation fees; and I'M
less some deduction is made. a poor
man in these parts will find it a diff
ficult matter to provide himself and
family with sufficient food during the
coming winter. High rates OF trans
portation, coupled with the unequal
and heavy taxation of the general
Government on cotton, are having a
most depressing influence on that
important interest, which VIII induce
many OF our planters . abandon 5ae
culture OF this, the 0Aiy staple prof.
met Of the Sonth. In this matter, Ii
seems to lis that the railroads stand
in their own light. Cotton, as well
as all other produce, will seek its
market by the cheapest routes, ana
4 comparison OF rates shows that
from this point it can reach either
Memphis or New Orleans at much
less cost rin Nazoo City than by rail.
The necessities of the county, as we'll
as the interests of the roads, demand
some immediate action. And from
the liberal character of the cores
pondcnce before referred to, we doubt
not that ere long such steps will be
taken which will in all things meet
the demands of our people, and re
lieve them of the fears of famine,
which many seem to think will visit
us during the coming winter.

MANUFACTURING.-TO show uD.
mistakably the Importance of devot-
ing more attention to cotton manu-
featuring at the South, it is only
necessary to refer to. the immense
profit resulting from the investment
in cotton factories in Lowell. The
aggregate capital invested by her
ten large companies is stated at $13,-
600, 200. The amount of cotton con-
sumed is one hundred thousand bales
the number of yards produced, ex-
elusive of yarns, something over a
hundred millions; and the number
ofoperatives is twelve thousand.
The operatives are mostly women
and girls. 1t would require at least
thirty thousand field laborers to raise
this cotton, and yet it is converted
into yarns and cloths by twelve thou
sand operatives. The process for
manufacturing the cotton, about
doubles its value, and the average
dividends declared by these compa-
mics is thirty-three per cent. When
we consider the saving in freight,
and the advantage which the local
buyer has over the agent for distant
companies, it is manifest that with
the same efficient management here
which characterizes the Lowell cCm-
panies, a profit of nearly fifty per
cent. could be realize by the invest
ment. This leaves out of view the
general advantages resulting from
such enterprises-increasing our pop
ulatiOn--erecting local markets, and
diversifyipg industrial pursuits. 1t
is strange that the manufacturers of
Europe are not induced TO transfer
some of their capital to the South.
They would thus outflank the tariff
imposed for the benefit of eastern
manufacturers, and save the immense
amount expended on freights and
charges.-[N. o. Commercial.
