New CATTLE MARKERT-The Washingto

New CATTLE MARKERT-The Washington
correspondent of the Baltimore Sun says:-It
is probable that large cattle rest will soon be
established near the Baltimore and Ohio depot
in this city, where cattle and stock coming from
long journeys may get food and water. It is
said also that drovers' rest fitted with all
couvcniences for the comfort Of stoc <, shade
and water, will shortly be established on the
line of the Baltimore and Ohio railroad near
the city. and that the drovcrs' rest near
Georgetown will then be discontinued, provision
being made by law for a single cattle market
and inspection place. There is a plan on foot
to require that the cattle and stock passing
through this city for Baltimore and the more
northern markets shall not be allowed to leave
here unless iu good condition, watered,, fed
and secured FROM feverish condition, which
entails suffering upon the animal and may be-
come highly Injurious to the whoesomeness Of
their meat. This plan will be put in
operation at an early day, probably upon the
arrival of the cattle train here from the South
west, next Tuesday.

ARREST OF JAMES +. CLARK.-James +.
Clark, late Commonwealth Attorney for
Prince William county and the unanimous and
persistent choice ofthe Prince William delega-
ton in the last Senatorial Conve ntion, of whose
late exploits an extended notice appeared IN
Thursday Gazette, arrived in Fredericksburg
on the train from Washington last L Thursday, but
left that town Immediately on horse hired
from the livery stable of Mr.. Thomas Hayden,
stating that he was going few miles IN the
country. Yesterday morning he was arrested
at the residence of his father-in-law, in King
George county, about ten miles from Fredericks-
abducting and carrying away Miss Fannie
Fewell, brought back to Fredericksburg and
taken before Justice of the peace, but waiv-
ing an examination, was committed to jail to
appear before Magistrate of Prince William
county within thirty days, in default OF bail to
the amount of 5000. Last night, however, he EN-
poyedcounsel, who sued out writ ct habeas cor
pus, upon which he was brought before Judge
Goodrich this morning, and after an examination
was remanded to Jail to await requisi-
ton from the authorities of Prince William
county. The Judge afterwards reconsidered
the case aud determined to hold Clark Tor eX-
animation at Il clock next Monday evening.
1t is understood that Clark left Miss Fewell,
with whom he eloped about month since, in
Washington, and her relatives have gone there
to look for her. The arrest was made at the
instance of Miss Fewell's father, who having
heard that Clark had gone to Fredericksburg
started Immediately for that place, and Clark
was so afraid that Mr. Fewell would shoot him
on sight, that he refused to come on the street
until that gentleman had been bound over to
keep the peace. A few days ago a gentle
man residing at Manassas received letter
from Clark asking particularly about Miss
Jewell Of whose elopement he said he had just
heard

COTTON MANUFACTURE IN TIE
SOUTH.

A correspondent writes to the New
York Journal Of Commerce some highly
interesting facts relative to cotton man
ufaeturing in the South. Referring to
the Langley Mills, near Aiken, South
Carolina, the writer says: ga anufac-
turer Of cotton yarns from Manchester,
England, after looking at our books,
told me that we manufacture cheaper
than they did by about the difference in
value Of our currency and gold-that is
to say, four and three-fOurths cents per
pound. Among the advantages enjOyed
by the South over the North In manu.
featuring cotton may be enumerated the
following: First, here the raw material
is produced, and by working it here va
riOus expenses incidental to its trans
p~ortation could be saved-such as profits
made by those who invest capital, time
and labor in moving It from place
TO place; insurance during transpor-
tation; loss by samplings and steal
ages from the bales. Second, ex-
perts claim that in our warm South
ern cline cotton works to better advan-
tsge, some estimating this advantage as
high as ten per cent. Third, reelama-
ton on false-packed and damaged cot
ton is direct and easy. Fourth, heights
on manufactured goods are less in pro-
portion than on bulky and hazardous
bales Of cotton. Yarns can be delivered
in New York from this vicinity for
sixty TO eighty cents per hundred.
Fifth, abundant supply Of operative
labor at low rates and consequent ex-
emption from strikes. Northern Super
intendsnts Of Southern mills admit the
superiority Of our factory hands (whitesl !
and the ease with which they are con-
trolled. The average wages paid at the
baluda mills is one hundred and forty
two dollars and eighty-two cents per an
num- Sixth, the mildness of the climate
enables the operatives to enjoy a lager
proportion of comforts on a. given
amount Of wages. In cold climates a
larger proportion Of carbonaceous food is
requisite, which costs more than FARM
aceOus food, nor do the houses for opera
lives require to be 50 expensive as in
colder regions. Lumber Of the best
kind costs only twelve to fifteen dollars
per thousand. The short winters re-
quire less fuel Land is cheap, and
