COTTON MANUFACTURING IN
THE SOUTH

Since the war the subject of manufac-
turing cotton in the South has received
mora attention than for a quarter of a
century before, and although a large
number of cotton mills have been erected
in various portions of the South, the
probabilities are that within the decade
| ending in 1880, the number of mills in the
South will be doubled, if not trebled or
| ouadrupled. With the advantages which
the South possess over New England for
converting the raw material into fabrics
| for commerce, there is no predicting
what the next ten years will bring forth.
The most notable success in this line is
the factory at Augusta, Ga. This mill
was built many years ago, and although it
did a fne business during the war, and for
some years previous, there is no doubt but
that il has achieved its most substantial
success since the close of the war. When
the war broke out cotton became cheap,
owing TO the difficulty of exporting it,
and the demand for goods, such as were
manufactured at this mill, grew so great
that the factory was worked TO its utmost
capacity, and a correspondent of the New
York Journal of Commerce states that
the dividends soon reached about 90 per
cent. month, then rose to an average of
100 20 $50 per cent. month, and during
the last year of the WAY the divi-
dend amounted to about 1000 per
cent. per annum on the capital
stock, in Confederate money. Added
to these successes, the superintendent of
the works expended large sums in new
buildings, built small town of brick
dwellings, for operatives, kept large
stock Of cotton and other property on
hand, and when the war ended the assets
of the company were in valuable proper
ty instead of Confederate money.
The stockholders, too, as a general thing,
were fortunate enough to have invested
considerable Confederate money in real
estate and other valuable property. So
we find this great concern at the end Of
the war in fieurishing condition, wealthy,
and resdy to continue making money the
same as if no war has taken place. Then
they went on, employing an average
number of 500 hands, working 500 looms
and 10, ZOO spindles, dividing on cspi-
tai stock of 100000 from 20 to
25 per cent. profits beyond the
large amounts carried to the surplus
fund. The prosperity of this establish
ment since the war affords sufficient evil
dence of the profits that can easily be
derived from cotton manufacturing at
the South under jnd cious management

holders of the Augusta Factory was held

PLAYING AT SOLDIERS.

FROM the ~. 4. ItneS.
The publication of the accounts" of the
Fenian Brothers who occupied the Moffatt
Mansion in Union Square, in 1866, induces
one to ask once more, how it is that the
patriotism of the Irish in the United States
can so completely overwhelm their sense of
humor, and their general strong aversion to
being cheated. The opening of the Moffatt
Mansion was a kind of formal experiment on
Irish credulity, and the accounts show that
it was carried out with ludicrous pomp and
circumstance In the first place, the estab-
ment of belligerent ''Governm ent," on
foreign soil, was in itself huge joke, but
this was suggested, and it's real nature dis
guised, by the operations of the Southerners
in Liverpool. The Rebels really had their
Navy Department in that city, which fitted out
expeditions against the enemy, with as much
assurance and success as if it were working
on its own territory but then, it had terri
tory of its own elsewhere, and a regularly or
ganiZed government to back up its pFeten-
sions, and give it force and substance. 1t
was Characteristic of the Fenians to perceive
only that the Confederacy had its seat on
foreign soil, and dispatched military expedi-
tions from a neutral port, and not to perceive
at all the importance of having some
where a political organization to fur
nish it with authority and standing
in the forum of international law. The
lubtltuIlOuS WHICH wore S0I up III Ln0 MOuaJt
Mansion were, on the contrary, the baseless
fabrics of a vision. The ''Head Centre, who
presided over it, had no Circle. The ''Secre-
tary of Civil Affairs" had no ''civil affairs" to
attend to. The military affairs" were all
civil and ''peaceable" as possible. The ''bonds,
of which the numerous ''bond clerks" took
charge, bound nobody; and "the Chief of
Artillery" had no guns. The whole thing was,
in short, little comedy which ''drew" about
$150,O00, and this sum the principal per-
formers divided among themselves.
Nevertheless, the general dissatisfaction
caused among the Fenian public by the per-
formance did not prevent its reproduction
under a new name in 1869, but with the I'm
vasion" left out. Money came in, and "war"
was declared as before, to the huge delight
of thousands of Irishmen, whose faith and
hope seem to be absolutely bOundless. The
failure last summer in Canada was enough to
damp the enthusiasm of any other nation.
Even Parisians would have succumbed under
1t, but Irishmen hardly ever ask for anything
but change of leaders, for they firmly hold
the French theory that when they are de-
feated 1t Is through treason"
Accordingly, We are now informed that the
chiefs who have been of late presiding over
the FeDian brotherhood on these shores are
to be set aside remorselessly by the recently
arrived "exiles, who are hereafter to have
the direction of all movements on this side
of the water for the overthrow of the British
Empire. This is very like what happened
once before, when the arrival of James

JENKINS AGAIN!

From the n. Y. Tribune.
We are enabled to hasten to report the fol-
lowing important intelligence, exclusively for
the I9S6une:-The special jenkins of New
York newspaper has been honored by an in
terview with the ex-Emperor stWilhelmshohe.
The gifted Jenkins was at Berlin when an in
timation was given him, from some source
which is left in painful uncertainty, that
Napoleon could not think of leaving Germany
without few moments instructive conversa-
tion with the representative of the greatest
journal in the world. To buy new paper
collar, drop little ink on the tell-tale stock
ing which peeped through a crack in his left
boot, and throw himself into railway car
riage with buttered biscuit and copy of
Ollendorf, was to Jenkins an affair of few
moments. He arrived at Wilhelmshohe. He
went to the hotel. The head waiter recognized
him at once, and in the most affable manner
offered him glass of beer. He took walk.
He apostrophized ''the glorious United States,
the asylum of liberty" He made the pro-
found remark that Napoleon, whose sun un-
equivocally set last September, was typical of
yonder refulgent orb of day, which had not
yet set, bat was pretty soon going to do SO,
and he added the observation, "What an
abundance of romance does not the history of
the world afford" Having thus, by gentle
exercise and philosophic reflection, soothed
and sustained his agitated frame (as

to approach the presence. He got in
through the stable. Reaching the castle, he
confronted M. Pietri, who let him pass.
He met various officers on guard; but one and
all, having a wholesome dread of interview
ers, fell back at his advance. Prince Joachim
Murat "greeted his American countryman
with friendly nod" DIR. Corvisart was
equally curt. But the moment of triumph
was at hand. jenkins stepped into an ad-
joining saloon, and there he found his i'm
perial victim, who ''shook hands, and well
coined him las an old acquaintance. Poor
Emperor
The record of what ensued is less complete
than we could wish; but we believe the CON
Versation was to the following effect:-
