there were 16 mills for manufacturing
cotton seed oil in this country, and
in 1881 there were 70. In 1868 cotton
seed was worth So a ton; now it is
worth $40 to $12. A ton Of seed will,
it is said, yield 35 gallons of oil worth
40 to so cents gallon; $50 pounds of
oil cake, worth, at $35 a ton, $13; and
81 worth of pulls-so that the manu-

goes through nearly trebles its value. +"

Howard's Lottery Boom.


We don't care to waste our time
and space on Charley Howard and
his lottery monopoly now. He is
one Of the fixtures of our present
State Constitution. In 1879 we
were very anxious to assist in the
good work of abolishing Towards
lottery nuisance, but our Constitu-
tional Convention would not allow
the people to lay their impious hands
upon Howard and his lottery
Charley, like some other cancers,
was securely fostered in the bosom
OF the proposed Constitution, and
there was no way to get whack at
him, notwithstanding the Legisla-
ture of 1879 repealed his lottery
charter. We reluctantly voted for
Howard'slottery privileges, together
with other ohjectional features of
the 1879 Constitution but were fore
ed to do so, or oppose the proposed
Constitution entirely. Towards lot
terry is now a part of the Constitu-
ton of Louisiana. No wonder he
feels solid-very solid. But why
was Howard and his lottery not plac.
ed before the voters of this State in
separate ordinance, like the debt
ordinance? Why was Howard not
antagonized them What an excel
lent opportunity to scalp the Lottery |
King was then lost, perhaps forever.

COTTON SPINDLES ATTHE SOUTH.
A Southern journal, the Columbus
(Ga.) Enquirer, makes the gratifying
report that in the seven States of
Georgia, Alabama, Tennessee, Mis-
sissippi,. Louisiana and the two Car.
olinas there has been an increase of
three hundred and sixty-one thou.
sand in the number of cotton spin
dies during the past year. This ad
dition to the manufacturing indus
tries of the South represents, it is
estimated, capital of nearly ten
million dollars, which is certainly
most encouraging condition of af-
fairs. There is no reason why the
South should not be able to manu-
facture cotton goods as cheaply as
New England. It has greater ad
vantages in the way Of climate and
labor, and it also saves the heavy
cost of transportation on the raw
article. If the South is wise there
can be little doubt that the great
cotton factories of the country will
in less than quarter of a century
be on the other side of Mason and
Dixon's ine.-[New York Herald.

Webster Tribune, 1st instant: CAL
most every day we see squads of men
passing here on their way to the rail
road. Rodgers, Rexford and James
seem to find no difficulty in procuring
all the labor wanted, and are pushing
their work with vim. They have
moved one of their convict camps a
short distance this side of Arcadia,
and we presume will move the other
shortly. They have nearly completed
grading for about four miles east of
Dorcheat bayou to where some heavy
work has to be done. Here is a high
hill, which we suppose will be cut
through with their scrapers. They
have graded several miles on the 9th
er side of the Dorcheat.

Shreveport Times: saThe State of
Louisiana with It's. comparatively
speaking, small population, it's i'm
mense undeveloped natural resources,
its lack of capital cannot affoad to
discourage or hamper in any way the
building of railroads. 'Tis venture
and uncertainty as to whether the
road viii pay living dividend for
several years, and therefore not nee
essarily incumbent, from financial
point of view, for the stakeholder to
build. In New York or Massachusetts
the case is quite different. There
everything is developed, the State

MANUFACTURES AT THE SoUrH.-

MANUFACTURES AT THE SOUTH
Many of the Southern States are
wisely turning their attention to the
question of the encouragement of
manufactures. In Virginia there is
a proposition to call convention to
amend the constitution, with view
to the exemption from taxation of
new manufacturing enterprises. Ala
bama is following in the same line of
progress and common sense. Move
ments of this character are the her
aids of q new era in the Southern
country. The waters of hundred
Southern rivers, whose banks might
be made the centers of innumerable
industries as fourishing as those of
Lowell, run idle to the sea. The
South has in its boundaries all the
conditions of success. It has the raw
material, cheap labor, a genial eli
mate, a productive soil, great natural
resources. Why are they not utilized?
There is room for new New Eng
land below the old dividing line of
Mason and Dixon. - m. Y. Herald.
