If. on the other hand, we can turn to advantage

we have any dangerous rivals.
We have spoken so far on the assumption MADE

By a fair inference we may expect that if we

We do not hold a brief, as the Gazette suggests,

our cotemporary, it would hardly pay US to plead
any longer. We speak simply in the interests OF
Hawaiian commerce., the sugar business most of

of the Pilgrims on Ply
mouth Rock.

Nezk week, on the 22nd inst, will be cele-
brated throughout New England and all the
Northern States, the 250th anniversary of the
Landing of the Pilgrims on Plymouth Rock.
During the late rebellion General Beauregard ex-
pressed an earnest desire to blow up that "ROck,"
for he had heard enough about it! 1t is still
there, and as a symbol of much that is good in the
civil and religious institutions of America, we
trust it will remain forever. Quite a number OF
the descendants of the Pilgrim Fathers are here
on these islands. Mrs. DIR. Hoffman, comes from
the Morse family, whose progenitor was a passen-
ger in the May FOcer, and who landed at New
Plymouth December 22d, 1920. The cele-
brated telegraph man, S. B. Morse, is also a de-
seendant or the same family.

Report Of the Committee on Manufactures.

To p. Dickinson, ESQ, President Of the Board
Of Trade, K',orrile, Tenn.
SIR-The Standing Committee on Manufac-
lures have the honor to make the following re-
port
In making survey of the manufactures of
our city, we find them generally ina satisfactory
and prosperous condition. Those in operation
are being gradually extended, while other and
new branches of business are being added. The
war closed leaving almost every vestige of for
mer manufactures swept away, and a large por-
ton of the town in ruins But, through great
energy and perseverance on the part of manu-
facturers, they have been rebuilt and enlarged
until the various branches of business are now
firmly established on footing that will enable
them TO successfully compete with any similar
undertakings in other sections of the country.
The following statement shows the several
kinds of manufactures, capital invested, number
Of hands employed, and amount paid for wages
and materials given in round numbers ,
Knoxville weekly chronicle. [volume] (Knoxville, Tenn.) 1870-1875, 1870-09-14

A large number of mechanics and workers in
"a small way, as well as the force engaged in re-
pairs at the railroad shops (many of whom may
be manufacturers, are not included in the above
Quite large amount of capital is also employed
by manufacturers of this city, in other counties
in producing materials for their business, such
as coal, lumber, iron, &c, which also is not in
cluded
But this statement shows $685. capital in
vested, Cos hands employed and $3.50, 800 paid
out annually for labor and materials in the manu-
featuring business of Knoxville.
We find all parties agree to the importance
and necessity of building up manufactures in
our city. We believe that with proper effort on
the part of this Board, our unsurpassed advan-
tages can be so pressed upon the attention of
those projecting such enterprises in the South rs
to secure their choice in our favor.
As to the manufacture of iron and Steel no To-
cality in the United States show better facili-
ties. We have close at hand inexhaustible beds
of iron ore, immense forests of timber and an
abundance of stone coal, all convenient to rail
road and water transportation; which combined
make Knoxville remarkably favorable point
for this branch of business
We find, in fact, no lack of raw materials
cheap and abundant-that will make almost any
branch of manufactures yield a handsome pro-
fit. Besides iron, we have other minerals, inclu-
ding zinc, lead, and copper. Timber is cheap
and of fine quality. Wood is soon to become
one of our chief products We are on the Dor
der of the cotton growing States, situated to
luNe Iilc INV HloIeTlh from IThl nitllus ana pay
for it in our own products. And, besides, we
have an abundance of cheap food to sustain n
manufacturing population, all combined to give
us every desired advantage.
Cincinnati prides herself on her extensive
manufactures, claiming TO have over 5000
hands employed and to produce S10i, 100000
annually of manufactured goods. But Knox
vile has advantages, in many respects superior
| to Cincinnati We give below comparative
statement of the average market price of some
of the more important raw material entering in
| to manufactures.

The Dry Goods Market.

NEW YoRE, Sept. 9.-There was an active business
transacted with large transactions in domestic cotton
goods at higher prices for Of the lower grades.
The decreased production, owing TO the extensive
strikes of the mills has diminished the stocks on hand
and prices irmer. Domestic wooden goods are selling
freely at full prices Wooden shawls in desirable styles
are becoming scarce, owing TO the heavy purchases
importers trade is quiet, and there is opposition to
press sales The auctions well supplied with goods
and fair prices are realized
