jJSt- Our country cotemporaries will con
fer a favor by giving the above a few inser
tions.
MANUFACTURING.
To show unniistakablv the importance
ol devoting more att >ition lo.cotton
manufacturing at the couth, it is only
necessary to refer to the immense profit
resulting from the investment in cotton
factories in Lowel'. The aggregate capi
tal invested hv her ten large companies
is stated at $53,000,000. The Hiuount
of cotton consumed is one hundred
thousand bales; the number of yards
produced, exclusive-of yarns, something
over a hundred millions ; and the num
ber of operatives is twelve thousand.
The operatives are mostly women and
girls. It would require at least thirty
thousand field laborers to raise this cot
ton, and yet it is converted into yarn and
cloth hv twelve thousand operatives.
The process for manufacturing the cot
ton about doubles its value, and the
avirage dividends declared by these
companies is thirty-three pet cent. When
we consider the saving in freight, and
t'io advantage which the local buyer h is
over the agent tor companies, it
ii manifest that, with the same efficient
management here which characterizes
the Lowell companies, a profit ot nearly
fifty per cent, could be realized on the
investment. This leaves out of view
the general advantage resulting from
s ich enterprises —increasing our popula
tion, erecting local markets, and diversi
tying industrial pursuit. It is strange
that the manufacturers of Europe are
not induced to tranaler some ot their
capital to the South. They would thus
out Hank the tariff imposed for the bene
fit of Eastern inariulacturers, and save
the immense amount expended on freight
and charges.
The above, which we find in an ex
change, without credit, is worthy of the
most serious consideration of our citi.
zeus, as well as of Northern and foreign
capitalists. The truth is, there is not a
more inviting field for capital and enter
prise than the South presents at this
time. Iler soil, her climate, her forests,
her fields, her mines, her quarries, her
hidden resources ol various kinds, ali
stand ready to pay tribute to the honest
and peisistent laborer, to the enterpris
ing worker, to the liberal capitalist. To
all such a warm and hearty welcome will
be given, and perfect safety troin injury
or insult guaranteed.
Where our own people ean furnish
the capital and the labor, they should do
so at once. Let politics alone. Wc
have no polities of our own. We are in
the hands of the North, so far as poli
tics is concerned. Let us abandon that
worthless and profitless discussion, then,
and seek the improvement of our sec
tion, our State, our country, or our com
munity, by all the means which we have.
And where we tail in these, let us give
every encouragement to the Northern
and foreign capitalist, laborer, and me
chanic. We have a country to build
up, ruined fortunes to repair, widows
and orphans '.o feed. Let us attend to
these ; and when the time conies for us
to be restored to our political rights, we
shall be in a better condition to enjoy
them.
Vermont Election.—The Jacobins
have been crowing very lustily over the
result of the Vermont election—a State
so clearly Jacobin that no effort was
made in it, and nothing expected. It
turns out that she is not as deeply im
mersed in Radicalism as at first sup
posed : witness the Tribune's figures :
ISB6. 1865.
Dillingham 26.671 27,686
Davenport '..16,442 8,867
The Jacobin majority in 18G5 was
18,74!). In is 10,229, a loss of
8,000. The Anti-Jacobin vote has nearly
doubled, while the Jacobin is nearly sta
tionary.
Aoitti vltckal. —The Floridians are
organizing Comity Agricultural and
Horticultural Societies, and upon the
basis of these they expect to build a
Slate Society.
PRIME
MEXICO.
We feel considerable interest in the
uflairs of Mexico, particularly since the
establishment of thi) Umpire, believing,
as we have always since done, that that
form of govern ineut is the best suited to
the people and exigencies of that coun
try. There are some who desire to see
the Republic reestablished, and are con
tinually predicting the downfall of the
Empire, and tlio return of Maximilian to
Europe. These predictions may even'
tually come true. Indeed, we should
not be at all surprised if they did ; for
the people of that country are so torn
up and divided by political dissensions,
and the ambition of designing dema
gogues and political and military aspi
rants, that to establish good order and
good government there must prove a
most difficult work. If, however, as the
correspondent of the Galveston (Texas)
News justly observes, Maximilian is let
alone by the United States, he is abun
dantly able to cement the bonds of bis
government, and crush out the opposi
tion of the so-called Republicans.
It is a matter of little consequence
what the form of government is called f
so that it subserves tile ends for which
all good government is intended, viz :
protection to life and limb, liberty ami
property ; the right of conscience, and
the pursuit of happiness. If Maxiinil
iau is let alone, he must eventually suc
ceed in establishing his government
firmly and securely, and it it fulfills the
ends which we have enumerated, why
interfere with it, merely to erect a name
or empty form in its stead? Let us by
all means give Miximilian a fair trial
and an open field.
The following from a City of Mexico
correspondent of the Galveston (Texas)
News , to whom we have already allud and,
will serve to show that there are two
sides to a story, and that the Empire is
not entirely exhausted, as the correspon
dents of some Northern journals would
have us believe:
It is our opinion that if Maximilian is
only let nlone by the United States, he
is abundantly able, with the material
right at his hand in this country, to ce
ment the bonds of his government, and
in the next year or two, crush out what
little opposition the Juarists are able to
oppose against him.
*****
His Majesty now has an army of at
least 50,000 able soldiers, extending
nearly from end of the Empire to the
other; blit we think, unfortunately, this
army is a very heterogenous mass, com
posed of French, Austrians, Mexicans,
Egyptians, Turks, Arabs, Negroes, and
a slight sprinkling ot nearly all other
nationalities. This variety may be an
advantage, but it does not so strike us.
We think probably it is more the result
of necessity than of an advantage. The
Emperor is now busily engaged in or
gatiizing new regiments of infantry and
cavalry, composed entirely of native
Mexicans, and it is said that they are
rapidly joining as volunteers. Conscrip
lion was threatened some time since, but
was not enforced. A terror of conscrip
tion may induce volunteering—we are
unable to say.
This same correspondent says that
Gen. Magruder characterizes the asser
tion that he had written a letter predict
ing the speedy downfall of the Imperial
Government, as •*an unmitigated false
hood from begititling lo end."
A Convention of Capitusts.—The
Richmond Dispatch takes this view of
the situation :
If the Radicals succeed in the Fall
elections, Congress will undertake to
impeach the President next Winter.
The President does not believe that
the House of Representatives, as at
present constituted, has any right or
power to present articles of impeach
ment against him, nor that the Senate
can constitutionally try him.
Congress, therefore, will not be al
lowed by the President to impeach him.
We take this for granted. He will not
surrender his position at the bidding of
a body which he firmly and conscien
tiously believes to be unconstitutional
in its organization and revolutionary in
its tendency.
Congress, however, professes to be
lieve that it lias an undoubted right to
impeach the President, and remove him
from office. That body, therefore, will
be likely to insist upon what it considers
to be its rights.
A conflict will be inevitable under
the circumstances. The President will
call upon the military for support. Gen
erals S teed ilia n, Sherman, Fullerton,
Custar, Dix, Wool, and hundreds of
others of the best generals in the army
will unquestionably rally to tbe support
of the President. An equally large
number will support the pretensions
of Congress. Civil war cannot well be
avoided, unless one party or the other
to this conflict shall surrender its posi
tion.
The bonds and treasury notes of the
United States would become worth
less as soon as such a conflict had
been begun. Capitalists are therefore
deeply interested in preventing so de
plorable an event. If the Radicals
shall be defeated in the Fall elections
in the Northern States, there will in
that case be no danger of a disturbance
of the peace of the country. That this
desirable result can be. brought about if
White Corn
proper efforts be made, there is some
reason to hope.
It ia believed that the. capita ists have
both tba will and power, by combining
their influence, to defeat the Radicals at
the coming elections.
We propose, therefore, that the capi*
taliats of the country hold a convention
et an early day, and agree upon a plan
of combined action. They can exercise
a powerful influence upon the voters of
the North. Let them coaiidcr’the pro
position.
