regard TO Gov. Vance, recently elected
United States Senator from North Caro-

construction acts aud the fourteenth

wisest thing Congress can do is TO pass,

THK Washington Patriot says very
pertinently zone of the first duties Of
the Democrats, after the meeting Of Con
grcss, should be to demand an immediate
reduction Of the army. Ii national troops
are only to serve as a political police, and
to be transported from place to place, al the
peoples expense, 10 promote the behesls
of party, then the time has come when
the army should be cut down to the ac-
tral wants of proper military service, Or
be disbanded. This is The day and hour
to strike down usurpstion, before it be
comes formidable by habit and dangerous

RADICAL DOCTRINE IN 1860.


The following resolution was adopted
by the National Republican Convention
that nominated Mr.. Lincoln:
"Resolyed, That the maintenance in
violate Of the rights of the States, and
especially the right of each State TO con-
troll its own domestic institutions accord
ing to its own judge exclusively, is
essential tc that balance of power ON
which the PROJECTIONS and balance of our
political fabric depend; and we denounce
the Iawless invasion by armed foes Of the
soil Of any State or Territory, no matter
under what pretext as the gravest of
crimes
This same party sends troops into
North Carolina, New York, Georgia and
other States to control the elections, and
is doing all in its power TO build up a cen
tralized government by destroying the
principle Of local and state government
in all directions. What are the pledges
of such a party worth?

SOUTHERN COTTON FACTORIES.

The Southern people are displaying a
commendable spirit in building up manu-
featuring establishments This is especi-
ally true in regard to the manufacture of
cotton. All over the South we hear Of
cotton factories springiDg up, and in a
few years we shall be able TO sell the
North the manufactured article instead of
the raw material. Georgia, already ahead
of the other Southern States in manufsc-
tures, is pushing vigorously on, and at
no distant day will surpass Massachusetts
in the extent of her cotton manufactures.
Macon is building one of the largest cot
ton factories in the world, with all the
latest improvements in machinery, and
constructed on the most approved model.
The engine, which is being constructedin
New York, is of $50 horse power, and
the intarnal machinery will arrive from
EDgEand in a short time. The Macon
Telegraph and Messenger, commenting
on this mammoth, says:
I'VE need twenty more just ike it, and
will have them before our boys are grown
men. 1t always occurred - us, as it does
to almos, any man, the most ridiculous
practice imaginable TO ship our raw cot-
ton 10 New England, and even to Great
Britain, there have it made INTO goods, and
90 there and buy it back. In this opera
ton we pay freight both ways, pay fac
tors, pay manufacturers, pay clerks, pay
book keepers, pay profit, pay loss, and
indeed pay off almost twO-thirds of the
household and kitchen expenses of these
people. for they make their living off us
in this pay We should turn every bale
of cotton raised in Georgia into goods,
and sell them instead Of the original fibre,
Instead of getting only fifty millions an
nually for our cotton, we would receive
about four hundred millions. Il is time
We had quit working for other peoIae and
pitch in for ourselves. We could, In ten
or fifteen years, be the richest people on
the face OF the earth, and ss that sort of
thing always cOmmends respect, we would
he respectable accordingly.
