COTTON MANUFACTURERS the
census returns of 1860 and 1870 it appears
that our cotton manufacturing establish
ments have declined during that time from
1901 TO $50; but the number of looms
has increased from 126,313 to 157 ,31O,
showing that the change has been one of
consolidation and expansion rather than of
actual decrease. The value of goods pro-
duced in 1870 was $l77 ,4s9, 739, or over
90 per cent. more than in 1860. Of the
956 cotton factories, 191 are in Massachu-
setts, 139 in Rhode Island, 13S in Penn
sylvania, Ill in Connecticut and 81 in New
York. Altogether they employ 135, 1863
hands, or 1884 more than in 1860, and
though the raw cotton manufactured was
"A 100000 pounds less in 1870 than in
1850, the amount Of capital required was
SAL 100000 more. Fall River has more
spindles than any other American city, and
claims to have more than any city in the

soon to be in operation, she will have
| ,l65, $40 spindles running, representing
over 1000 looms. Seventeen years ago
she had only eleven manufacturing estab-

EN- 1loying $500 persons. Now there
are thlrty-two such companies in the city,
with capital Of sl4,SlO,000. A single
mill has $1,000 spindles, another 81, 900

COMPOSITION OF THE OLD SILVER
DOLLAR AND THE New TRADE Doll
LAR.-The following is the official state
ment of the composition of the old silver
dollar and the new trade dollar, by
DR.. Linderman, director of the United
States mint: Old dollar, 4124 grains, 900
fine, fine silver, 37l4 grains; trade dollar,
42O grams, 900 fine, fine silver, 37S grains.
1t will this be seen.that the trade dollar,
soon to be issued, containes six and three
quarters grains Troy more pure silver than
the old silver dollar, and is therefore near
ly two cents more valuable, The Mexican
dollar when full weight and fineness, con-
talns 337a grains of pure silver, or three
quarters of grain less than the new trade
dollar, the difference in favor of the trade
dollar being, it is believed, sufficient to en-
sure It's reception by the Chinese, which
would be ofdecided advantage to this .coun-
try, in view of its large and increased pro-
duction Of silver.
