Cotton Factory Meeting.

At meeting held at 1<eller's Hall,
Wednesday evening, for the purpose of
the erection of a Cotton Factory at
Monroe, Judge A. A. Gunby nominal
ted Mr.. L. ID. McLain to preside which
was carried, and j. G. Sanders was
requested to act as secretary.
The Chairman requested Mr.. j ohm
Chaffc, of New Orleans (who was pres
ent,) to state the object of the meeting,
which was satisfactorily done, with the
aid of Mr. Clark, a practical cotton spin
ner and cloth manufacturer.
Whereupon, the Chair appointed
committee to canvass for subscriptions
of stock to carry out the object in view
and report progress Monday evening
next at p. m. All citizens Of Mon
roe and vicinity are requested to give
aid to this undertaking, as it will Ger
tainly add largely to the benefit no
only Of those directly interested, Du
! also to the community at large, as s
Cotton Factory will certainly add as
much, if not more to the City ant
Parish than branch railroad.

Another Tangible Move.

Some three weeks ago we had the
pleasure of announcing that an ice fac
tory would certainly be built and put
in operation i'll our little city. The
work of building is even now going
ahead.
To-day we are equally we'll pleased
in directing attention to the proceed
ings of a meeting of men of means and
ENERGY held at Keller's Hall, with the
view OF establishing Cotton Factory
Mt this point. The plan in brief-as
suggested by Mr.. John Chaffe, q man
we'll known for his energy and financial
ability-is, that stock to the amount Of
will add the looms, machinery, &C.,
of the Arizona factory, valued at So,
500, all of which amount he will SUBJ
scribe as stock, less $500, making a
capital stock paid in of $4,000. With
500, 900, all neediul improvements may
be added to the machinery in hand,
lots purchased, a factory to cost not
less than $4,000 erected, and all other
OUTLAWS met necessary to begin spinn-
ing and weaving upon the placing of
the looms, spindles, engine, &C., in the
building.
The machinery referred to cost $74,-
600, in 1868, and is now being operated,
or was but recently. There are two
engines included, at $500 each, origin
al cost 5000 each, and we are assured
that the prices of the machinery is fixed
at a corresponding discount on cost.
We have not the space this week to
add more, but will refer to this highly
important subject again very soon.
Meanwhile, we strongly urge i'm
immediat action in this matter by our
citizens and all who feel alive to the
improvement and general prosperity
of our parish and city. The stock can
easily be raised here and elsewhere,
and this opportunity to begin a new
and prosperous era-to end we trust, in
the most wealthy manufacturing city
in I4ouisiana-should not be neglected,
as it will, without question, never be
forgotten.

Health of Town and Country.

We are able to report some improve
mcnt in tho health of both town and
country surrounding. The sickness is
of II mild type, such as chills and
fevers, remittent fevers, etc., with,
however, a tendency to congestion,
against which nurses, patients, and
parents particularly should constantly
guard. TO ally any fears abroad, we
may add that in population of seve-
we have to report only two cases OF
congestion the past week that proved
fatal, and one of these was from lack
of proper attention at the beginning OF
the attack.

Refined Cotton Seed Oil.

and has placed us under obligations for
a liberal sample. We have read OF
many favorable experimental tests in
cooking with this oil, but were some
what skeptical withal. Upon fair
trial, however, in the frying of fish, and
making of flour bread, we have found
it so near the equal of lard as not to Es

certainly cheaper and is recommended
as being more healthful, all impuri
ties being removed in tho refining pro
