authorized to tender Colonel Rives the Of.
fec of second vice president ofthe Richmond

ALEXANDRIA,, VA.
SATURDAY EVENING, MARCH II.

THE COTTON manufacturers of New Eng
land have been compelled already TO ask the
railroad companies to discriminate in their
favor in the matter Of freight charges on
raw cotton. This request was forced in con-
sequence Of the competition to which they
ara subjected by thecotto mills ofthe South.
If the duty on manufactured cotton were
removed, or reduced to revenue point, the
owners of Northern cotton mills would be
compelled to move their plants to the South
in order, not only to avoid the freight char
ges referred to- but to avail themselves of
numerous other advantages of this section,
without which they would be utterly unable
to compete successfully with foreign
manufacturers. And yet there are Southern
members of Congress, men calling them.
selves democrats too, who arc in favor of a
protective tariff.
