TIE MooRCRoTT Factory .-ArIangements
have been nearly completed, We are informed,
which will secure the rebuilding of the Moor
croft factory at Wright's Mills at an early
day, the CoIlamer mortgage having been dis
charged on most liberal terms, and highly
creditablc to the generosity of the party
holding it. The other liabilities are but tri-
fling, and Mr. Howarth, the brother-in-law
Of Moorcroft, stands by to the extent neccs-
sary to meet them. This IS pleasant inteIIi-
gcnce to all interested, and particularly to
the little community at Wright's Mills.
The " dark cloud which VIC saw last week
has % silver lining after all.
