The Gallatin Fxaminerof last week

The Gallatin Examinerof last week
comes out with long editorial favor
ing Gen. Marcus j. Wright for Gov
enor. In speaking Of him the editor
uses the following language, every
word of which is true:
In addition to his sound democracy
and general good points that constitute
the character Of a man of integrity,
and mark, he is a journalist of exceed
ing merit, who has developed a strik-
ing ability, and our esprit da corps
would lead us very naturally to es-
pouse his aspiration, if he should have
any. In the matter Of available
brains, he has about FIVE times the
quantity bestowed upon the average po-
litician, whose stock in trade is chiefly
made up of impudence, presumption,
brass, and other ingredients that con-
stItute cheek. On the contrary, Gen.
Wright. is a modest unassuming gen
tleman; as timid and gentle in pri-
vate life as he was fearless and daring
in war; firm in his convictions of the
right, and bold, clear, and vigorousin
their expression. He is thoroughly
imbued with old time democratic, con
stitutional ideas of government, and
has taken up with none of the free
love-ism" of latter day politics. In q
word, he is u safe man. He would
make a good Governor.

The following bill was drafted by a
very intelli gent farmer Of Henry coun-

persons residing in the State shall pay
an annual tax, as a privilege, Of five

ev collected by said privilege tax,

this act.
Be It further enacted, That whenever
any sheep shall be killed by dogs in
this State, that the owner of the same
shall make proof of the fact before
some Justice of the Peace, and that
said Justice shall thereupon certify

who shall pay to the person injured,
the full value of the sheep thus killed
ont ofthe money in his hands arising
under the provisions of this act.

COTTON mANUFACTUES.

Encouragement for the south.
New York Bulletin. July %
To induce parties in Georgia to
erect cotton mills, a southern writer
the other day compiled a table of div
idends declared by some of the lead
ing Eastern cotton and wooden mills
/ in 1873. This table showed that 26
out of AZ companies divided from 10
to 80 per cent. each. In order that
the South may not be too enviOus on
account of these enormous profits, the
Boston Journal undertakes to picture
what it calls the other side Of the his
tory of manufacturing inthat section

during the history of these mills be-
fore these profits were found. Some
Of those mentioned as making such
dividends in 1873, we are reminded.
lost their whole capital at other times
and had TO organize anew. The stock
of others, paid in at 1000 a share,
sold at $50 in 1857. The Chicopee
had It's capital cut down in 1860 from
/ 500, 900 toS210, 900 by impairments /;
and so on through the list. Still,
these unpleasant "reminiscences need
not discourage men from engaging in
/ cotton manufacture; for there are ups
and downs, lights and shades in all
business, and the success Of the mills
at Augusta, Ga, and other places in
the country, shows clearly that with
economical management it is very
profitable to operate such manufacto-
ries in the South, where all the ex-
pense of transportation Of the raw ma
terial is saved.
New York sun, July -.
The results of the Augusta cotton
factory enterprise are such as to en-
courage the Southern people to further
efforts in manufacturing. The Deepen
dence Of the South on the North for
manufactured products was shown
strikingly during the war, when, with
cotton in abundance, the wealthiest
citizens were obliged TO purchase at
enormous gold prices clothing brought
over in blockade runners, while the
poorer classes wore the toughest of
homespun. Since the war several
praiseworthy efforts haYe been made
by Southern capitalists torender their
section independent. The most sue
cesslGl of those enterprises is the Au-
gusta cotton factory, started soon at
ter the war. Only sixty thousand
dollars were ever paid i'll, and the
company has paid out in dividends
81, 06S, 600, has property worth ST.
100000, at the lowest calculation,
and a surplus Of S265,S7O During
the fiscal year just ended the compa-
ny has expended s350,0O0 for new
N lchinery and for the enlargement
and improvement of the buildings.
Yet Georgia only consumes $4,000
bales Of cotton i'll her mills, about one
twentieth part Of her own crop, while
most of the other Southern States are
without cotton mills, and have to send
their whole crop elsewhere to be man
ufacturcd.
