NEW PROCESS FOR SPINNING cor

We bad call from our enterprising
friend. George Allen. Esq, Of Newbern, !
few days since. lie had just returned from
visit to Memphis. where he had been TO
personally examine the new cotton factory,
lately erected III that city. on what is known
as the new process, or Clement Attach
ment plan.
Tins invention was patented short time
since, aud is now being introduced to the
notice Of Southern manufacturers.
Mr.. Alien expresses himself rs being
much pleased with it, and fully satisfied as
10 liz merits. lie has brought samples Of
yarn made under the new process. aud he

ject, and 70 send samples Of the yarn by

aid that be expects to put in operation, u
small factory this Fall. We hone to see u
cotton factory at work in Goldsboro during
the year 1878. and we predict success. The
inssutor claims the following advantages
over the old process. which il true, it will
make great revolution in the manufactur-
ing interests of the South. We hope to see
large portion Of our cotton shipped us
yarns instead Of bale cotton. 1t would
greatly improve our finances. and give pro.
iitable employment to our labor.
f. 1. SplDuing cotton from the seed. saves
the expense oi gin. piess, bale, ties, opener.
picker aud lapper, aud reduces the cost Of
the yarn from two to three cents per pound.
2. New process yaril' is more even, and
is at least fifty per cent. stronger. than
yarns made by the old process. ~
3. a given amount Of machinery. with
the Clement Attachment, will turn out ff-
" per cent. more yarns than is possible un-
der the old plan. 'Ss1 1863 %5@'
4. The daugei from FIRE is greatly rsduc-

S. A small factory located in the cotton
States. custing no. over Twenty-Five taods-
aud dollars. AMI fitted with the Clement
Attachment, will produce better yarns. and
at cheaper rate. than can be done by n
