6RAHDEUR,

One of the greatest distractions to
manufacturing enterprise in the South is
the desire to do business on too large o
scale. Fifty thousand dollars is the low
est calculation that can be made as to the
outlay necessary in starting manufac-
tory, and as fifty thousand dollars are
hard to raise, so it is hard to commence
business. Nothing less than q grand
company, with president, directors, su-
perintendents, clerks, agents, and an i'm
mense brick structure, filed with i'm
ported machinery, will satisfy the desire
of our aspiring manufacturing lords; and
as they can not raise the means to estab-
lish business like that which gladdens
the eyes Of Sprague or Lawrence, the
enterprise is suspended as. premature.
This is not the wey to begin. These
manufacturing establishments are not
started in a new country as they
are in an old one. Every business
must begin and work up, the
employer learning his part of the bust
ness while he is instructing the neighbor-
hood around him in the industry which
has opened up at its doors. Ten thou
sand dollars, or even five thousand dol
lars, would be amply sufficient to make q
commencement with in any Southern
county, because the labor to run such an
establishment might then be safely calcu-
lated on in the vicinity without sending
to England or the East for more than
enough skilled mechanics to supervise
the general work. In the course of two
years large number Of hands in the
neighborhood would be instructed in the
details of the business, and their ser
vices could be relied on under all cir
cumstances. The mandatory would
then be in condition to enlarge its
transactions. The proprietor would I'M
derstand the work under his control, and
his dependence on others would be at an
end. The fabric of the mills would have
obtained such reputation as to command
a ready sale without trusting large stocks
into the hands of commission merchants
for advances. The ornamental expense
of sustaining well dressed clerks and
handsome business Offices would be dis
pensed with, and the enterprise could be
nurtured into a. thrifty and independent
public improvement just dispense with
grandeur in making the calculation, and if
we do not have few large and imposing
manufacturing establishments, We shall,
at least, have great many modest and
profitable factories run with skill and
economy, amply supplied with home la
Dor, and doing an immense amount of
good to the people and the State. This
is the way Daniel Pratt commenced his
gin enterprise on good mill stream near
Washington, Alabama, about forty years
ago; using the water-power of John
Mcneil until he was able, in very short
time, to buy his own premises and start
his own town OF Prattville, which is now
growing and prosperous village. A
small beginning and a good ending is bet
ter than grand opening and disastrous
cmoch

ON CARONDELET STREET,

The principal topic Of conversation on
the street, just now, is the amount of
dividends to be anticipated from our
various institutions-ba street rail-
roads, etc. The dividend of two dol
lars a share declared by the Canal Bank,
on the earnings of the last six months, is
not regarded as suggestive Of a very -four
ishing business. Eight per cent per an
mum is not enough to bring a stock up to
par in this market, and when no more
than such profit is realized, shareholders
naturally become timorous. The presi-
dent of the Canal Bank is supposed to be
capable and efficient official. He is
known to be extremely careful and pru-
dent in his transactions. If such man
can not assure more than eight per cent per
annum to his Shareholders, the public are
apt to lose confidence in bank stocks as
permanent investment. This result
would be unpleasant, i'll financial point
Of view, as nothing is more desirable
than strict confidence between the banks
and the public, and such confidence can
not exist unless it is seen that the bank
ing institutions are at least reasonably
prosperous. We need more banking
capital than we have we need it espe-
cially in time Of stringency like the pres
ent, when bank accommodations may be
the means Of ayerting widespread ruin
and disaster and the public would not
be unwilling to see the banks realize
large, although not exorbitant, profits.
That the dividends Of such an institution
as the Canal Bank do not suffice to bring
its stock up to par, shows either that its
business is not of that magnitude which
the public have supposed it to be, or it
has used its power Of accommodation,
during this season of distress, with very
sparing, not to say an illiberal hand.
The dividend of FIVE dollars per share
declaoed by the Carrollton Railroad, max
ing eleven dollars for the year, meets the
general anticipatidns of the street The
stock has remained firm since the divi-
dend was declared. 1t is remarkable that
the only calamity which can overtake
we'll managed city railroad company, that
OF damages accruing from lawsuits, has
overtaken two Of our companies during
the last week. Verdicts have been rem
dered against the Canal & Claiborne Street
Railroad, and against the Crescent City
Railroad while there is suit pending
against the City Railroad.
There is sensible relief in the money
market at present, but entire ease may
not be expected before the first week of
the new year. One cause, not hitherto re-
ferred to, that has made money scarcer
than usual, even at this season, is the ex-
traordinary accumulation Of currency in
the treasury, amounting to $50, 900, 600.
It is believed to be the intention of Mr..
Boutwell, to devote this surplus to the
purchase of bonds, and, indeed, this is
about the only way, besides being the
most judicious method, in which it can
be got afioat.
The following were the Bids for the
treasury gold sold yesterday. The bid
ding was spirited, and Townsend, Lyman
& Co. were the successful competitors

Slaughterhouse stock was again dull
and dropping yesterday. Transactions
were extremely limited, and buyers and
sellers seemed to have some difficulty in
coming to an agreement. It appeared,
however, that there were parties ready to
take all that might be offered at s23, but
this was two low figure to tempt sellers.
The Mississippi Valley Levee Company
are about to call in the old scrip, which
was originally issued, with view Of SUBJ
shutting for it new and more formal certif-
Gates. This exchange must be completed
within ten days. The new scrip will, it
is presumed, drive from the market such
of the oldes may be retained by its hold
ers after that time.
The following were the offers and bids
at the board last night:
