Cotton Manufactures. 9 Pome of the English papers are speculating upon Hth ‘ comparative production, manufacture ami eonsump- Btion of Cotton. In 1831 the whole number of spindles B>n operation in Europe, was 10,901,000, which con- Bsimcil 303,000,000 ibs. of Cotton. In 1846 the total ■number of spindles in England alone, was 15,554,619, Haml the whole number in England, Ireland and Scot land 17,500,000 consuming 61*2 000,000 lbs. of the raw ■material —equal to 1,530,000 hales of 400 lbs. each ■ Th** German States have 815.000 spindles, Austria lr 1 Italy 1,500,000, France 3,590.000. Belgium 420,000. ■ Switzerland 650,000, Russia 700,000. United States ■2,590,000, making a grand total of 27,535,000 spindles, ■ winch according to the ratio of consumption in Eng- HLa,l,i ought to consume annually about two and a ■half millions of bales. The entne production of the ■ world tins year will probably not exceed two millions ■of bales, so that it is very uncertain whether the ef ■fort of the English Manufactuiers, to keep down ■ prices, by working short time, will succ- ed. The ■ Bank of England has already come to their aid and ■will, doubtless, accomplish much. England, it is said, ■contains 634-1000 parts ot all the spindles in operation ; ■th** remainder of Europe 275-1000 parts, and tie United only about 91-1000 parts. ||§ This country will never be truly independent until, ■our manufactories have been placed in a position where j ■they can sustain themselves against the British Mills,’ ■ bucked by the monied power of the Bank of England ; ■ and that point will never he reached as long as the L>em ■ ocratic party has the power to levy low duties and d*- ■ criminate aganntf American industry. So long as the ■ Manufacturers and Bank of England have the power, ■ Belong will they raise or depress the price of Cotton at ■ their own pleasure. Things are now tending just us ■ they did in 1836 and *37, and we w arn our planting ■ friends to look out for the coming storm They are ■ now piosperous and out of debt. Let them invest their ■ surplus means in Manufactures anJ oilier improvements, ■ rather than in Agriculture. Ireland, unhappy, ill-fated, ■ starving Ireland, stands at the very foot of the inanufac ■ hiring nations, having only 215.593 spindles. She has ■ been brought to this pass by British influences. I,*t us, ■ therefore, take warning, ami guard against the men who ■ under the guise of low duties are gradually bringing us ■ under a system which must finally subject us to our an ■cient task masters.

Kiln-tlrving Indian fom. At the meeting of the fbat” Arieultnrn! Society held nt Saratoga Springs, on the 3d inst . a description was ! rp ' > ‘l of anew apparatus for kiln-drying Indian Corn. recently erected by Col. John H. Tower, and which ought to be understood by persons engag-d in shipping corn to foreign [torts Those who have seen the opera tion of this method, have no doubt of its entire success. It is thus described : “ A frame work of brick is built, arched at the top enclosing a sheet iron cylinder, made up of separate tubes nltout two inches square, coupled together with iron castings. An iron shaft panes through the cylin der, sustained by a support nt each end, and over a ‘pul ley at one end of this shaft, runs a belt from some of the machinery of the mill, which thus furnishes the motive power of the machine. Tiie grain runs from a feeder into the h-nd of the cylinder, thence into the tubes, and as the cylinder revolves, one end of it being elevated, the grain has a revolving motion, gradually pass’ s for ward and through into a receiver nt the other end. A small furnace or common stove in the bottom of the kiln with pipes passing from it under the cylinder, furnishes the heat, and the rapidity* of the drying process depends upon the fire and the elevation of the h.-ad of the cylin der, both of which can he regulated at pleasure. “ A kiln of this description, with a cylinder 13 feet long and 16 inches in diameter, (which will require a bout twenty tubes.) w ill readily dty from three to four hundred bushels per day, consuming not over half a eord of wood, requiring no attention except to regulate the heat, and the w hole cost of the machine cannot exceed one hundred dollars. “ Its capacity can readily he increased by increasing the size ol the cylinder, or what probably would he pref erable, by placing several in the same arch, and a tri fling increase of expense will tumish a machine which will dry one thousand bushels per day. “ The great advantage ol the invention is, that the com (and other grain can be dried in the same manner) has a constant rotary motion, and therefore is not Lam ed on one side be, jre it is dry on the other ; thus the com comes out as bright and yellow as when il left the ear, and ail article of meal is furnished for market alto gether superior in appearance and value.” —Albany Evening Journal. Alderney Cows, The Alderney Cows, so clotouied lor the richness and quantity of their milk, are natives of the little island ol Jersey. From that small district, il is said, 4,000 cows are annually exported to England, to sup ply the lovers ol rich milk and cream with a luxury such as none but the Alderney can yield in such per fection. But tew of these cows h ave yet been imported into tins country, the largest heard being owned by Roswell L. Colt, Esq., of Paterson, New Jersey. Mr. C., it is said, has recently sent out an order lor a cow and bull ol the very purest ot the Alderney blood, winch, togeth er with those already on hand, will enable him gradu ally to increase the stuck m this country. Take a Newspaper. Franklin was an observing and sensible man, and his conclusions seldom incorrect. He said, ‘A newspaper and a Bible in rvety house ; a good school in every dis trict—all studied and appreciated as they merit—are the principal support of vtrue, morality, and civil liberty.” One ol our exchange papers tells a good joke about a farmer who was too poor to take a newspaper, and yet who lost $l5O in the sale olbtscrop, owing to the tact of Ins not being apprised of an advance in prices on the receipt ot the foreign news.

Asa nation, we of the United States are more deficient in the grace ful courtesies of life than many others not so for iulvanc el in civilization in other respects. It is said that tiie Swedes excel in true politeness, all Northern nations of Europe—the French not excepted.” Good Wives. S|ionking of the middle ranks of life, a good writer observes: “ There we behold a woman in all her glory; not a doll to carry silks and jewels ; not a puppet, to be dangled by fops—an idol ofprofone adoration, reveren ced to-day, discarded to-morrow—admired, but not re spected desired, but not esteemed—ruling by passion’ not affection—imparting her weakness, not lier con stancy, to the sex which she should exalt—the source and mirror of vanity. We sec her as a wile, partaking the cares, and guiding the labors oilier husband; and, by her domestic diligence, spreading cheerfulness around her; for Ins sake, sharing the decent refinements of the world without being vain of them; placing all her joy, all her happiness, in the merited approbation of the man siie loves. A.- a mother, we find her the affectionate, ; the ardent instructress of the children she has t ‘tided j from their infancy ; training them up to thought and . virtue, to meditation and benevolence, addressing them j as rational beings, and preparing them to become men J and women in their turn.” C'riiniintl Statistics. From a statistical document recently published in the Moniteur, it would appear that of all the liberal professions, medical men furnish the smallest number of criminals; the nnmlier is indeed so small, that it has lieen found impossible to fix a fractional ratio, as with the other classes. Since the year 1529, not more than two physicians have been tried as criminals at the as sizes. In the ten years, from 182 bto 1838, there were tried in the various criminal courts forty-one thousand six hundred and seventy-nine male prisoner, above the age of twenty-five years; among these were thirty three priests, thirty-three lawyers, seventy.five notaries, sixty-six tipstaffs, hut not a single medical practitioner.” This rule of course does not include the endless swarm of quacks. Cotton Rendered Incombustible. “ A chemist in Georgia, in experimenting upon the manufacture of gun cotton, has made a discovery of more value to the world than that of the celebrated German. He renders cotton incombustible, w thout : injuring its texture, preparing it for tiie protection of life, rather than its destruction. Children, clad in garments made from cotton prepared in this wny, will be mno danger of a horrid death from their clothes taking fire —a catastrophe at present of alarming frequency ! Surely greater credit is due the man who discovers a mode of preserving the life of mankind than to him who unfolds to the school of war a less expensive way of manulacturing the means of shedding human blood ‘ Though the effect of gun cotton may be more forcibly felt in the world, incombustible cotton eaimot fail to ex -1 cell it in real utility ” j The above is “ g ang the rounds ol the papers,” and we hope it may not be regarded obtrusive in us to ask, who the gentleman is that has made the important dis covery in question f Farmers’ Soils. Mr. Skinner, the very worthy and practical editor of the Farmer's Library, in an address to his readers, has the billowing remarks: “We entreat all fathers among farmers, to inculcate on their sons the in lisputable truth, that their vocation is to be followed as one of intellect and honor, or ot stolid drudgery, accordingly as they cultivate or neglect ’ the studies that lend it attraction and Iruitfulness. Open ! their minds to the truth that, if among farmers there were the same application ol file mind to their puisuit, to discover every means by which it may be followed with more intelligence and profit, American husbandly would have reached before now that degree of increas ed proficiency which lias been achieved in the move | ment of armies and the construction and use of military | engines—in the application of steam to maritime and j manufacturing purposes, and in all other employments of capital and labor, under scientific directions.” Hints to T'aimcrs and Planters. “The fanner's life is shunned by many because it seems one of mindless drudgery. It ought to be leas so H our farmers would study and reflect more, they might do less hard labor, and yet accomplish more in the course of a year. Ten hour's work daily, in summer, and eight in whiter, ought with good management, to give any man a good living. He who works so hard that he cannot read or reflect after the labors ol the day are over, because of fatigue does not act wisely. Let no man shun wotk when work should he done ; hut delve, delve forever, is not the end of man's life. The farmer’s evenings should be devoted to mental acquisition and rational enjoyment. To sup and tumble into bed is a pig's tashion, and highly in]uriousto health. But let a farmer have about him the choicest works of hts own auxiliary avocations ; let these form the subject of study ; ami conversation at least two evenings in the week, i while the newspaper the newest and oldest volume, each I have tltrir allotted seasons. Two or three dollars con- I tnbuted by each fanner in a neighborhood, nr school district, would go a great way in the purchase of stand ard books at modern prices. These are hut hints which each reader will modify as his judgment shall suggest; 1 plead only for the essential thing of making home pleasant, and its hours of relaxation hours of instruction also.” —Greelv A Profitable Li pertinent. “Lady Adri'ii complained of a tooth-ache.

Doniphan ami Col. Xenophon. The N. York Post compares Col. Doni phan's expedition from .Missouri through New Mexico to the mouth of the ltio Grande with the famous expedition of the five hundred Greeks under the renowned leader of nearly similar name. Col. Xenophon. The last has become classic because it was told in so charm ing a manner by Xenophon and all Doniphan has to do is to write as perfect a history of his expedition to make it be read with admiration two thousand years hence. The Greeks were led from near llabylon through Armenia to the Black Sea. and thence to Chrysopolis, three thousand lour hundred and sixty-five Roglish miles. It was accomplished in fifteen months, md a large part of it through an unknown, mountainous and hostile country, and in tin inclement season, the Greek losing every thing except their lives and arms. Col. D. and the Missourians travelled over six thousand miles in twelve months, neither receiving sup plies nor money, but living exclusively on the country through which they passed and sup plying themselves with powder and halls by capturing them from the enemy. They fouglit three battles, in each of which they were vic torious over greatly superior numbers. These are the two most remarkable expeditions that have ever occurred. Something .Mysterious. The Belfast (Me.) Journal says that within the past few weeks the Down-Eastern have been astonished by an exhibition of lire-works upon their hills. From Schondic hills from the Cherryfield hills, from Bluchill. arid from some hills in the vicinity of that town, these signal or telegraphic lights have been observed. The individual stationed at Bluchill hails from New York, and that is all the inquisitiveness of tiie Bluehillites can discover. He prepares his fireworks at the public house, and ol two colors; one of which is blood-red. the other a light col or. At night he goes upon the topmost sum mit of Bluchill mountain and watches for a signal from the east, when he throws up two lights and is answered by lights somewhere in tiie vicinity ol Belfast. The signal has been seen lor a distance of seventy miles. The Journal asks—“ May the mystery uol be con nected with the flour speculation ? When Hie Atlantic steamers arrive ut Halifax, these sig nals may communicate the rise or hill of bread stuffs, and the intelligence be carried to the magnetic telegraph, and Unis sent forward to the speculators.” A Good Maxim.

Comment on such evidence is unne cessary—- East Poultnky, Vt. Aug. 10, 1816. Messrs Sands—ln the Spring ol 1811, I had the ty phus fever, with which 1 suffered the most intense pain, & “ hen 1 reenveerd from that, ! was attacked witfi the spinal complaint and inflamed sore throat. This con , tinned until June 1813. when my throat and lungs ulee i rated, attended with a severe cough, mid my face was covered with scrofulous sores. I cannot describe what 1 suHered for five years, three of which 1 was confined 1 |to my bed and could not sit up at all. During this peri- ‘ od 1 received no benefit from the various prescriptions I of different Physicians, nnd had neatly given up all i hopes of ever being any better. At this time I was in duced to try your Sarsaparilla, from the many remark able cures it had performed ; and strange us it may ap pear, the first bottle effected a sensible change. By continuing its use, my health has much improved that I can now not only sit up, but walk, and 1 fully believe, with the blessing of Providence, that it will effect a per* feci cure.

But while it is thus denominational in its character, it will oe liberal inns views, expansive in its charity, wide in its embrace of the great interests of the Church of Lhnst. nnd of onr common country—will aim also at being rich in religious instruction and fervid with the Christian spirit—adapted to family reading, not over looking the lambs of the flock. In n word, its design will he “the edification oi the Body of Christ,” in all things pertning to life nnd godliness. The Southern Presbyterian will have an extensive correspondence scattered throughout the whole of the Southern States, and as there is no paper south of the city of Richmond, Va., devoted to the }>artieular inter sts of that large nnd growing denomination, it is thought that this enterprise will hnve peculiar claims upon the friends of Presbyterianism in the South.
