emigrants seek the same kind Of en-
ploymcnt here. The mass OF foreign
in this country only turn their at.
to agricultural operations, when
their skill, industry and economy cna-
bles them to command means enough
to warrant the purchase Of Il home in
the country.
BY establishing this kind Of an indus
trial institution, it will prove the most
powerful agency in securing emigration
to this region Of country that can be
devised, 1t will have more influence
.han all other causes combiped in direct
ing labor here, andis a consideration n
itself that should determine gentlemen
who may be doubling the propriety Of
taking stock il this company to a !
literally. What Franklin county wants
is what all Of Middle Tennessee needs
more labor; labor that can he rem,
dcrcd more efficient than freedmen's Ia
Dor, under its present status. We
INDEPENDENTLY require Intelligent H.
Dor, hut skilled and Industrious labor,
that brings its moral and physical res
v0nsibilities, and becomes an intcgra,
lart Of society, sympaihizing with al
Our interests, and participating in oul
prosperity.
There is no question, gentlemen, bn,
that those manufacturing interests will
superinduce emigration. Consider no"
much you are interested in getting Al
industrious population among you, ano
let no effort remain WMtricd that ma
evcntuatc in placing your broad acre
of uninviting waste under n proltabi,
system 0rcultivation. Aside from tn,
stimulus this vii! give in inducing labo
here, the practical question is, ''Wiil Il
pay and without investigating tn
matter don't take it for granted that il
won't pay, and advise your neishboi
that ifit will pay, somebody will come
along and start the work without YOU
assistance You arc solicited to tax
stock in this company only to tn,
amount that has been voluntarily ten
dercd at other points. In offering /;
subscription Of stock elsewhere, it was
done from motives that certainly look
cd to the advancement ofthe pccuaiagy
interest Of the parties concerned.
The preliminary arrangements thu
far effected lead to the conclusion tina
Iron and Nails can he manufactured Us

CT pOin, in the State. The cost OF Il c
material entering into the wants Of II
establishment ofthis kind can be estI-
mated to q certainty. III market va
nc OF the product, have thcir fix d
price, subject only to the fluctuations
that follow from an active or slow L..
lnanl. The exact est Of converting
the raw material into the manufactured
proluct, can be closely estimated; and
at this time, with all expense and cost
OF material and labor, and the markc,
value Of the manufactured product
there Is an ample margin forproiit from
present data that will yicl! q diyidrnu
more profitable than the per ccntaec ),
farming operations Of the past TIVE
wears. The stock will be worth a pre-
MUM ranging from 10 to 80 per cent
and will be, consequently, easily al,
readily convertible, il the holder lie
sircs to sell.
Reflect ovcr this project, and exam
Inc well into, and satisfy yourself that
il will be worth making the effort to
convert q portion OF your presenl
means into Il shape that will he nor,
valuable, in itself, as well rs contribu
ting to the enhancement of the value o
