To tbe supporters and advocates of home manufactures, it must be highly pleasing to know, that among other cloths of the moft fubltantial kind, rna. nufadtured in the alms house and houf* I of employment, in the city of Philade 1 - phia, co:ton blankets have been made of a trxi.’re andquality superior to any j thing of the kind ever seen in this coun try ; foecimens ot ih*fe and other goods having bten forwarded to W alhington, the Prefidcnt of the Z/nited States was so well pleased with the cotton blankets, that he immediately gave orders for four pair. Should this laudable example be followed, by the gentlemen of influence in the different dates, of encouraging our own ariifts and manufacturers, wc ! would soon find that the cctton, which i is so plentifully produced in our country, j would be wrought into cloth amoug us, ’ afford support to many ptifons, open a door for the rxereife of ingenuity, and remove us to a greater distance from dc pendanceupon Europeans.
