The True Remedy.

a correspondent of the Charleston Ncrs
elaborates the idea suggested by us last week rec
that the people of South Carolina, like the
people of New York, should seek redress for
any wrongs committed by the State authorities
through the Courts of the country. We have
faith in the application of this remedy, and

stock was bought with great deal of care.
There are larger stocks in the State, but when
it comes to real handsome and stylish goods,
the Emporium of Fashion" is unsurpassed.
Especial attention is called to his stock of Dress
Goods, Shawls and Millinery, AMI to many ar
ticles useful and ornamental for ladies, not to
be found in any other house in the up country.

1t appears that Secretary Fish has not re-

competitor, A. s, Wallace, has caused nearly

= There. is q tannery and shoe factory near
Perryville, in Oconee County, which employs
eleven hands, and turns out in year 5000
hides and 1900 pairs of coarse boots, besides
shoes and fine styles of boots. The proprietor,
Mr.. w. A. Lay, informs the Walhalla C6u,ier
that raw hide worth So is worth from So to
$12 when tanned, and when the leather is made
into boots and shoes, is worth from $40 to $50.
The bark of the oak trees which cover the hills
of 0conee is worth three times the selling price
of forest lands. Three good trees give q cord
of bark worth IS; and yet twenty of these
trees, with the land on which they stand, arc
often sold for ST., It is estimated that Oconee
County pays annually s25, geo for boots and
shoes, the raw material of which costs $4,000,
and may all of it be obtained within the Gounl
ty limits. What is true of Oconee is alike ap!.
plication to the people of Anderson, and the
significant facts above related are conclusive
argument in favor Of home manufactures. -

REPORT OF THE LADIES' MISCELLA-
NEOUS COMMITTEE.

The Committee to whom it was referred to
examine the Ladies' Miscellaneous Department
have discharged the duty assigned them, and
beg leave respectfully to report:
That the number of articles presented is so
great and they are all so superior of their kind,
that it would be almost impossible to discrimi-
nate amongst them and recommend that pre-
miums be awarded to few, without doing in
justice to others equally meritorious. Indeed,
to meet the views of the Committee, premiums
should be awarded to every article examined.
But, az this would be impracticable your
Committee decline to make awards, and would
suggest, as the exhibition is most credtable to
the skill, industry and public spirit of the ex
hibtors, that their names (which do not appear
to the Committed should be collected and en-
braced in a complimentary notice through the
Anderson Mtclhigencer as a future memorial
and stimuant to others.
Respectfully submitted.

Peoples Manufacturing Company

Peoples nufaeturing Company
We hope that our friends in the country ME-
becoming fully a1ive to the advantages snai i'm
portance of establishing the proposed Cotton
Nils at this place. We have nos attempted,
during the past few weeks, to urge this matter
upon the people by arguments Of our own, but
ve have sought to furnish them with articles
bearing upon the general subject of manufac-
lures in the South from other sources, which
have been more satisfactory than anything we
might write. It is plainly our duty To engage
in the manufacture of cotton more extensively,
as measure Of economy and an aid to the de-
velopment of Southern industry. But the i'm
mense profits arising from the investment Of
capital in this direction will assuredly prove
the greatest inducement to persons generally,
since duty and patriotism will be linked with
self-interest. We trust that active efforts will
lie put forth TO secure the requisite amount of
capital to organize the Peoples Manufactu-
Wing Company" without delay, and that every
one will feel authorized to urge this matter
rpoD bis neighbor, so that an united, vigorous
and persistent effort will place our community
In complete harmony upon this great endeavor
to build up the material interests of the coun-
try. AS an evidence of the energetic manner
in which these things are managed in the
North, and an incentive and stimulant to more
active exertions in our midst, we append sig
nifcant paragraph from one Of our exchanges:
Manufactures are receiving q new impetus
lust now at Fall River. Twelve mills are just
completed, and the way stock is selling in them
is wonder. The other day the papers of one
was declared ready and sale of stock begun at
ten o'clock in the forenoon. At two in the af-
ternoon every cent had been taken up TO the
amount of S5OO0OO. The stock of one mill,
before the roof was on, sold at S164. The num-
Der Of nsv spindles to be put into operation by
these new mills reaches the number of 100000.
This necessitatas the immigration of more than
$4,000 laborers and swells the number of inhab-
itants to nearly $4,000. For number of years
Fall River has been running out the cotton
cloth at the rate of 100000 yards month,
or 1884, GOO miles year, more than enough to
belt the earth with cotton cloth yard wide
three times. Lowell, for long time, held the
front rank in the manufacture of cotton gooSs,
but now the palm belongs to Fall River.
