TIE KaLMIA FACTORY.
An Important Movement ia Augusta
Tho Anonsta Chronicle OF Sunday says :

The Augusta Chronicle OF SUNDAY says
n,an is on foot which will soon cause
another cotton factory to be IN opeiaLien nsas Sa
Augusta. 1t will be remembers, a,iaO for the
1eaTs 400 n company was organiLeu Ior Tue
nnrnose of building and running cotoon iaC.
pu PosJK os Kolmio South Carolina, some ten or
tsn.,v" tU,s :" miles from this city. Enough money
.,as subscribed for stock to make beginning,
and work was commenced. maSnlncenI
building OF brick was erecteo ano haoe
In addition to this cotton mill, neat and
substantial houses for the accommodation
of the prospectiye operatives were construct
cd. and all that was needed in order to COM
mence the work of spinning was the machlne,
nv, Machinery, we believe, was purcnaSe.ui
and nut up. but the company, it seems, got olt
in the purchase, and it proved to be Wortniess.
Before new machinery could be contracted, an
event occurred which very efectually kllied
the enterprise money OF the stochnolueIs
gave out, and the company at once coiapseG.
Since that time these fine mills, upon Wnlcn
50 much money and labor was expended, nave
been lying idle. and the houses OF 1he opera
tives without tenants.
on Yesterday we learned that movement
had been started which will put new life Into
the enterprise, and add another to the list OF
great cotton manufactures Quilt anu run oy
Georgia capitalists. 1t appears that New
York capitalist, named Langley, loaned money
W ohN oSSuASN
BY mortgage on the real estate owned oy
the corporation. When the concern failed,
the mortage was foreclosed, and Langley came
Into possession of the mills and ether build
ings. Not long since, some of the leading
capitalists of this city determined to take
hold of the matter, and carry the plan OF
the original stockholders into execution. Ne
gotiations were opened with the owner OF the
property, Mr.. Langley, who agreed to sci! for
the sum of seventy five thousand dollars. This
proposition, we understand, has been accept
ed, and company is being formed for the
purpose of procuring machinery and at once
putting the mills in operation. 1t is proposed
to raise q company with a capital stock Of
three hundred thousand dollars -seventy-fve
thousand dollars of this amount to be ap-
piled to the purchase Of the property, and
the remainder to be used for procuring ma
chinery and working capital. There seems
to be no doubt of the success OF the new
scheme On yesterday the books were opened
for subscriptions and very large number OF
shares taken by gentlemen of this city. One
of the leaders in this movement is Mr.. VIM.
E. Jackson, well known North and South as
the president of the Augusta Manufacturing
Company, perhaps the best managed and most
successful cotton factory in the United States.
Among the other subscribers are Messrs.
Edward Thomas. Josiah Sibley, B. E. Dunbar,
]. j. Cohen, and many other Of our leading
business men.

DEATH OF ANsoN BURLINGANE.-Thisd dis
tinguished man died at St. Petersburg in
Russia, on the 23d day Of last month, of con-
gestion of the lungs, after an illness of four
days. For the past few years he has attract
ed attention throughout the civilized world,
having occupied the prominent position of
Envoy Extraordinary and Minister Plenipo-
tentiary from the Chinese Empire, for
the purpose of making treaties with all the
leading nations. He had but recently arriv-
ed at the Capital of the Russian Empire, to
carry out the objects of his nilsson with that
government, where he was suddenly called in
the prime of life from the further prosecution
of the great trust contided to him. Mr.. Bur
lingame was native of the State of New
York and in his forty-eishth year. He was
q member of Congress from Massachusetts for
three consecutive terms. In 1861 he was ap-
pointed Minister to Austria and subsequently,
to China, which latter position be resigned in
1867, to accept the diplomatic appointment to
the European Powers and the United States.
The funeral took place at St. Petersburg on
Saturday last, the. English, French and Amer
lean ambassadors acting as pall bearers. The
remains will be brought to this country.

SPRING..

When cold winds cease to blow, and warm
snd gentle zsphyrs take their place. When
the days begin to lengthen, and the long
nights to shorten. When the green grass
spreads over hill and vale When wild flow
ers open under the blue expanse of Heaven.
When the frogs sing their love from every
pool. When flies renew their lives. and
wasps gather upon the window panes. When
the sun peeps out from amidst misty clouds,
which discharge no sleet or hail. When the
sap is rising and the buds are swelling.
When the peach trees are blowing, and the
birds are warbling, then We know that Spring
is near.
Hail. all hail, gentle Spring. thou first
born Of the wear. With thee comes refreshing
showers. sorgs and flowers. All nature well
comes thee; the trees dress in their greenest
robes: the rivers run foaming to the sea, and
the mountains take off their wintry coats and
don thy livery. Spring. thou art the type OF
youth: thou art to the fleeting year. what youth
IS to man. With Summer comes his prime:
with Fall the " scar and yellow leaf and
alas. with cold dreary and cherries Winter,
old age and death. d. \.

Ben BUTLER FOR PREsIpENr.-A meeting
Of the friends of B. F. Butler, took place in
New York last week, when one of the speak
ers announced that it was only the beginning
Of the movement to elect Butler to the Presi-
dency. From the report of the meeting the
effort seems to have been premature, but it is
sufficient to inform the people that the hero
of Big Bethel aspires to be successor of his
bottle friend. The country has innumerable
sins to atone for, there can be little hope of
receiving absolution through the sacrifice of
such peace Offering as Ben Butler, to heal
its wounds. If by any means this movement
succeeds and Butler should become President,
he will be larger sized evil than the Fit
teenth Amendment. We want a President
that can look square out of both eyes. Ben,
you are not our choice.
