v1LLE.-In' the last number OF The South,
correspondent, writing from Charles

comprise 5000 spindles and 200 looms,

would be most favorable conditions fol-
tho satisfactory solution of the problem
OF cotton manufacture in the growing
district, and that upon an important
scale. It is estimated that the factory
would consume $500 bales of cotton an
nualiy, yielding product of 5000, 900
yards of cloth. It would give O great
impetus 10 the growth Of the neighbor

such an enterprise. Such notable ex.

find herself treading tho path which New
England has followed up to the great de-
siderata Of wealth and power"
