WASH NOTION as 4 MANUFACTURING POINT
FACTS AND sUGGESTIONs.

Editor Stcr;-ln handling advance sheets OF
the census report on manufactures to comment
upon stubborn facts and exploded theories re-
sulting from Commissioner Walkers labors 4
could not resist the idea that the people OF the
country, and even the residents of this city, de-
tract from the Importance of Washington in a
material respect, because they are not in pos
session OF some plain facts that 1 will give you.
General Walker, i'm his report, develops the
astounding fact that New York city is the great
est manufacturing city in the United States.
That honor has universally been accredited TO
Philadelphia will be far ahead OF New York i'm
manufacturing Importance, because she pos
sesses peculiar advantages OF spare territory
and convenient materials, while New York be-
low Kings bridge, has not much room ID q
manufactures will find it profitable to occupy
on account of its value for other purposes.
New York will do her heavy manufacturing out
OF town In the future, because land is cheap on
Long Island and in New Jersey. And while
Philadelphia will present a statistical excess
over New York Of manufactured products, the
latter city will no doubt own or control four
times as much manufactures as Philadelphia
Will produce, and will be, practically the store
mouse and sales-room, as she is to-day, OF all
east coast manufacturing points, from the tan
neries of ArOostook TO the cotton mills of Geor-
gia. New York will never strain a point to be
called the great manufacturing city. The citi-
Zens who note the numerous actores near their
uptown residences already begin 70 saw, sSd-n
those steam Whistles" But, 1 was going TO tell
you OF Washington. The District OF Columbia,
we usually say, has NO manufacturing indus
tries. The fact is,
THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA MANUFACTURES
MORE THAN AMY ONE OF FOURTEEN EN-
TIRE STATES AND TERRITORIES.
Arkansas, with her lumber and other indus
tries; Florida, with her lumber mills, fruit
packing establishments, "Havana cigar" fac
tories; Mississippi, with her machine shops OF
Nicksburg and jackson, her -four mills. and
her lumber from the Gulf level; Nebraska
with her Omaha; Utah, with her Brigham
Young and his industrious Ihive-none OF these
states and territories, strange as IL may seem
approach the District of Columbia in manufac-
turing importance. Even South Carolina with
her beds OF phosphate on tide water shores. her
textile mills in the interior, and her varied in
dustTies scattered over the state, manufactures
less than $500 600 worth a year more tn an this
District. It is true, that while PENNSYLVANIA
excels in iron manufacture, Massachusetts in
boots and shoes, Michigan IN lumber, Connsc-
ucut in plated ware, Vermont in scales and bat
ances, Texas in beef packing, and North Caro-
lima in tar and turpentine, this District excsls
IN no particular branch of industry, the agyre-

FonEEGN SnrpNENrs-Our energetic
countyman, Lewis G. Kemp, Esq. we are
pleased to note, has been shipping lar &c guam
titles of barrel slaves and headings to Wash
ing, Georgetown and Baltimore. The force
of hands employed at the saw~mill of Mr..
Kemp are now turning GU. about sixty thou~
sand slaves and headings per week, and the
probability is that after harvest his business
in this line will be increased The energy
and enterprise of Mr.. Kemp in this direction
is worthy of emulation by others of our citi
zcns. We are always gratifed to be able to
chronicle any enterprise that looks not only
towards the retention of capital in eur midst,
but that will bring to us a revenue from abroad
however large or small it may be, and we be-
1icve that the time is not far distant when JEFF
ferson county will receive and disburse within
her borders larger amount of money than
she now sends abroad. When this period
arrives true prosperity will begin.

ENCOURAGEMENT TO MANUFACTURE
The Council of Alexandra, Va, have unani-
mously passed an act to encourage and pros
|. tect manufactures in that city. It releases
from taxation for ten years all machinery, &c.,
which shall hereafter be employed in any new
mandatory; provided that nothing in said
act shall be construed as releasing heground
on which said manufactures are situated from
the regular tax imposed on the same accord
ing to its assessed value. Such action as this
might well bear imitation on the part of our
own Town Council, and if it has the power to
do SO, We are sure it would receive the hearty
endorsement of the people in any action of
this character. We need manufacturing en-
terprise for the full development. of our na>
tive wealth, and as at the present stage of
our county's history manufactures are most
generally located where some tangible in
ducement is offered on the part of the local
authorities or people, Charlestowu, to be up
with the age and equal to if not in advance
of other localities, must offer to capitalists
some such inducemcut as has been offered, not
only by Alexandria, but by many other towns
and cities North and South.
