The Memphis Avalanche says tina
there is decidedly among our pco
pie desire to engage extensively il
manufacturing. Much capital is now
being spent in that way, This is well
It, however, becomes necessary to
guard against failure in these new en-
terprises, Two things are essential to
SUCCESS in manufacturing; one is to
have machine shops suitable for max
ing and repairing all sorts Of machine
ry, near the factories and the other
Is to secure an abundance Of cheap and
wholesome food, motive power, wood,
coal, and timber in more abundance.
Let US then establish near our factories
fine machine shops, so that all our ma.
chinery may be made and repaired at
home, and also let us raise ample sup
plies Of provisions with which to feed
the operatives in the cotton and wooden
factories. Again, let us caution ollr
new hands in this business against buy
ing the east off machinery of New
England, which we understand they
are now trying to sell the Southern
States, who are not fully convcrsant
with this business. Buy nothing bht
the newest and best machinery; it will
be far the cheapest in the long run, Get
men who thoroughly understand the
business to make the selections.

iNSS
We take the following from the
Memphis Commercial and Argus:
We are requested by Gen. Forest to
urge upon the officers who served un-
der his orders during the late war,
especially after The battle of Chicka-
mauga, the necessity of forwarding,
without delay, their accounts of the
organization and operations of their
respective commands, as otherwise i;
will be impossible to do them justice in
the proposed memoir of "Forrcsts
Cavalry" now rapidly progressing to
ward completion. Many of those to
whom Maj. Strange's circular solicit
ing material was sent have not We,
been heard from, but it is known that
some Of them are preparing reports
and it is one of the objects of thi,
note to beg that these reports be SEN
forward immediately. All who may
be able to contribute memoranda o.
any kind, useful in the preparation oI
the contemplated work, whether here
tofore applied to or not-privates al
well rs offlcers--it is hoped will do &c
at cncc.

a war of Races.

There is much ground for the apprshen-
sions expressed in the following extract
from private letter, that we are permitted
to publish. We remember seeing a well
authenticated annecdoie few years siSSe
that IS a true illustration Of the difference
between Northern and Southern people in
their feelings towards the negroes
4 poor negro woman, who had been a
slave, emaciatod, forlore, and in a starving
condition, was begging IN the city of New
York. She went from house to house, in
the wealthy portion of the city, begging
for food. Doors were slammed in her face
and she received nothing but bitter words,
until finally she was met at The door of a
fine residence, by a lady who spoke kindly
to her, and supplied her wants. Overcome
with gratitude, the poor creature exclaim
ed, "bres God Misses, know you is from
the SOuf." The negroes instincts were
correct. There is a kindness Of feeling
that is engendered by early associations
between the two races, under wen defined
rules of caste that would otherwise be i'm
possible.
The Northern people-especiall the
ladies, have natural and instructive re-
pugnance to being brought in contact with
the colored race, whatever may be their
abstract theories of equality Monitor
The following is the extract alluded to
II was in Richmond at the time of the
recent riots there. I believe that, unless
the radical ineendiaries be stopped from
perambulating the South, a war of races is
inevitable It may be postponed awhile
butt will come as sure as effect follows
cause, if these demons be permitted to
tamper with the passions and prejudices OF
the negroes. My opinion is, that the ne
grOes will ultimately be driven out of the
country by. Northern men. The only
friends the negroes have are the Southern
people. There is an instructive prejudice
of race, and the people of the North are
more under its dominion than the people
of the South, because the latter have over
come it in great degree, in consequence
of their lifelong association with the ne
gres. This instructive prejudice, or repug-
nance will assert itself as soon as a con
fiet takes place between the two races, and
the most relentless foe of the poor deluded
