CAV NASHVILLE SPIN COTTON.

We beg our people to look at the facts
that we here present. There is no better
investment than the spinning of cotton here
in this city. One Of our best merchants
tells us that cotton yarns, from number to
l., the ones most used, are worth forty-fye
cents per pound. Our market prices place
Tennessee cotton at thirty cents per pound.
A practical cotton manufacturer says that
with present high price Of living, it will
cost five (5) cents per pound to manufacture
these yarns.
Now, two hundred thousand dollars will
erect all the necessary buildings, and put in
complete running order ten thousand
spindles, which viii produce every day
1000 pounds of these yarns. Then the &C
count will stand thus
1000 pounds yarns 500
4OO0 pounds cotton, SOc--.-..,.. ....'...-'-sl.3M
Manuiacturing SC per pound. 30 l.4oO
CLAIR proit per day...................... 500
This at three hundred working days to the
wear, will show a clear and clean profit, az
ter paying all expenses, of one hundred and
twenty thousand dollars per year, or sixty
per cent on the investment. Let it be borne
in mind that we base these figures and this
result upon actual operations that have Ia
ken place this week in our own city.
fit is desired, the same amount of spin
dies could. at the same ratio of expense and
profit be increased to one hundred thousand
with the same result and We all know by
our own individual experience, the great
scarcity of clothing, and ofoourse know that
there will be no danger Of the supply equal
ing the demand.
Now If our people want to benefit the
country, but more especially make money
for themselves, let company be organized
for a ten thousand spindle mill, asthey have
the facts here before them, which show by
actual transactions that cotton manufaotu-
ring will pay sixty per cent per annum. do
they want anything that is better.

if some Northern and Western people
are surprised to learn that there are
instances OF as may as 10000 cattle
owned by one man in Texas, they
will no doubt be moro surprised to
hear that such men hardly ever have
milk or butter on their tables. In an
adjoining county, says the Times,
where the number Of cattle given in
for taxes exceeds 100000, the mer-
chants purchase Borden's condensed
milk and Goshen butter to sell their
customers.

THE COMPLETION OF THE SECOND CABLE.- The Great Eastern arrived in safety at it's des- tination, Saturday afternoon, and now two ca bles cross the ocean in good working order. The last enterprise seems to have been perfect ly successful, and to have been achieved with out difficulty. Fears which have been enter tained of the durability of the cable wiifbe set at rest by the perfect ondtion in which the old cable is. found to have remained. The ex- ternal coating is not perceptibly changed, and the transmission of signals thorpgh the old wire ia as perfec. and rapid as through the one laid this summer. The Great Eastern departs at once for England. Cyrus W. Field and the other gentlemen who have been engaged with him in the recovery of the last years cable
 will soon make preparations for laying a second cable across from New Foundland to Aspy Bay. The wisdom of this plan of secur- ing two lines from London to New York. is ev. ident. Both cables will not probably be out of order at once but when from any cause one line becomes unfit for use some time will be necessarily consumed in making the proper repairs. There can be little danger that ever again telegraphic communication between this
 country and Great Britian will be interrupted. MT. Field has shown great modesty and good sense in pushing on every part of this work without coming home to New York to re- ceive ovations. He deserves them, however, from the country his skill and perseverance has honored and when at length he does return to the United States. he will doubtless be rs
 ceived in manner worthy his countrymen and himself-P Palladium. lsf sd s.5:.a 7

A SOLDIERS TRIBUTE TO HIS FALLEN Fog. .A "M. G.

But it is gratifying to know that such peerless courage was appreciated even by the foe for two months later, when the regiment aeain passed the spot, 2 neat looking mound, near the Notifications. with the following inscripticn on its head-board, marked his resting place j. sa HERE LIES THE coLoR-BEARER - sosi d1a5 els's -a of the -"'aa { 7' NINETEENTH ALABAMA REGIMENT.
