The Thine in a Nutshell. Mr. Daniel Pratt of Alabama, thus briefly illustrates the way in which manufactories make cities: “Cotton is certainly the article with which we ought to commeucc manufacturing, that will bring nil the other branches along in regular train. Should $1,000,- 000 capital be invested in a village in manufacturing cotton, it would employ about 1,600 operatives; those belonging to their families who did not labor in the fac tories, would make their number amount to 2,000. — This would bring in 1,500 more in other small branches, such as merchants, mechanists, boot and shot* makers, tanners, saddlers and harness makers, silver smiths, tinners, paper makers, &.c In laet, almost every branch of manufacturing would follow. I bus it ap pears that $1,000,000 capital invested in cotton manu facturing wi aid give employment to 3,5tM) persons ; hut this is not all The village, of 3.5(H) would create a market for all the provisions made to spare from 10 to ’ 20 miles around, encouraging ami enriching all our small, industrious farmers. It would give a healthy as pect to business through the whole neighbourhood* Money would circulate freely during the whole year ; whereas now we think we are doing pietty well if we get a sight of, or handle a little, once during the year, or at most, a small portion of the year.” Spectacles for Cross-Eyed Politicians* New Hampshire says: Georgia says: “ Resolved, That in all; Resolved, That the pas territory which shall here-Mage of the YVilniot Provi after be added to or nequir- |so by the House ol Kepre e l by the United States, sentatives of the U.

The Richmond Whig in alluding to the resolutions of the Georgia Convention, approving of the usages of the party in regard to a National Convention, very per tinently asks; “How shall two walk together unless they ngrec ?’’ i How can the Northern and Southern wings of Locofo coiam unite in the selection of candidates, when the former dare not nominate a nm.i who is not in lavor of the Wibnot Proviso, and the latter are pledged not to sustain th** nomination of any man who is not opposed to it? We have, it is true, seen the Locofocos, when apparently irreconcilably sundered, brought together again and “compacted together” by some extraordinaiy means—Mr. Calhoun once said by “the cohesive pow er of public plunder :’j But upon this question, unless we j have overrated theirhoneaty & independence, there can be neither compromise nor surrender —an i especially as both of the parties in Convention will be satisfied, tint the abandonment f the position held by either will not he ratified by the people of the section whose senli m • its will have been compromised uw.iy, and oouse queady that their of tire “spoils” cannot be prolonged by such an arrangement.” Taylor in the Old North Ntn*e.

Scott* We have through our New Orleans exchanges, news from Veia Cruz to the 2d and from Brazos to the 4th inst. On the 30th, Gen. Scott was still at Puebla, awaiting the arrival of reinforcement?—resolved not to advance without 10.000 men. Gen. Cadwallader was expected to reach Puebla on the evening of that day. and Gen. Pillow was also advancing, though slowly. He had been constantly annoyed by the guerrillas, and had suffered severely. Gen. Peierck was to leave Vera Cruz on the sth, with 2,500 men and another train, which would doubtless he greatly annoyed. Jalaps had been abandoned us a depot, and was reported in the hands of the Guerrillas. Santa Anna was raising a forced loan of a million of dollars at the point of the bayonet, and was at the same time striving to get a quorum of Congress, to lay Gen. Scott’s propositions before that body. The Guerrillas hud stolen about 800 mules from the pens near Vera Cruz. It is said that the Government have already lost from 1200 to 1500 horn sand mules at that place, ami the stock keeper has been very properly put into the Castle. The news both from Scott and the city of Mexico, is very mea gre. Mr. Kendall, in Ins letters, holds out some rea sons to hope lor an early peace ; though the better opin ion is, that we will soon hear of the bloodiest battle of the war. The taking of Tofiasco. The laet arrival at New Orleans, brings the intelli gence of the taking of Tobnbco by the Fleet. The ex pedition reached the mouth of the Tobasco riyer on the 12th of June, and commenced the ascent on the 14th On the 17th they were attacked from the shore by a formidable force under Gen. Bruno, which did some damage to the vessels and wounded several men. The next morning while engaged in sounding the bar, Lt. May (brother to Charley) lost an arm. and several of his men were injured. The boats were at once manned and the sailors landed with their artillery. From this point the toice was marched into the city, having had on the way only a slight skirmish with the enemy.— Gen. Bruno and his forces baffled and were not dis covered though the Americans occupied the place fur nine days. The fortifications were destroyed and the guns which could not le canned off, were spiked.— ( apt. \an Brunt was left as Governor, and the Etna Spitfire and Scourge, remained to hold possession of the place. Bruno it is said, had under him 1,400 men, nnd would, doubtless, attempt to recover possession of the town. FOREIGN NEWS. Advance in the price of Cotton— Decline in Bread stuffs—Promising condition of the English Crops— Capture of the Portuguese Fleet and Forces. The steamship Caledonia arrived at Boston on the 4th instant, with Liverpool dates to the 19th ult. The great ocean race between the Britannia and the Ameri can steamer Washington , resulted in favor of the for mer. Both left on the same day—the Britannia from Boston, the Washington from New York. The for mer arrived at Liverpool late on the I3ih, and the lat ter touched at the Isie of Wight at noon on the 15th, for coal. The money maijtet was easy—trade in the manufac turing districts brisk—crops in Great Britain and on the Continent promising. The consequence was of course, an advance in cotton and a decline in corn and bread stuff* generally. Cotton, winch had fluctuated in the early part of the month, had become steady at on advance of j of a penny. ‘Flic sales for the week ending the 18th, were 3(3,000 bales, 5,000 on speculation and 1.400 for export, the balance to spinners. 7,000 American uplands brought fi a 6ld Alabama and Mobiles were quoted at 6| a 7f.

The It Hie* We fin ! in “ The Yankee,” the following in reference to the principle of construction in the rifle, which is so ’ |H*eulintly the American weapon, that all should com l prrhehd its principles of action . j “ Many persons who are very export in the use of the ’ rifle, know nothing of the principles on which It ope | rates, and would he at a loss if asked why a grooved barrel thrown a hall truer than a smooth bore. ’Hie reasons arc these : “In the first place, no bullet is or can he perfectly spherical, (hie side is always heaver than the other, and the ball, therefore, swerves from tlie right line ol projection. However hard it mo> bt* to piovo this, thro •deafly, pnetfos det mu it iv tmm* tonoi th lK>re, Immovably fixed, tw tv loaded, with the same charge of the an me powder, snd with bolls east in *he | same mould, will not plant them both in the name spot, nt the same distance. “ The rifle barrel is a female screw, which gives the tightly driven ball a rotary motion, so that if the bullet, J °r nither th** slug, swerves with one twist of the screw, ( another revolution corrects the error. There are three motions in a rifle ball: the straight forward, the spiral. ’nd downward, caused by the power of gravity. A ! rifle of thirty to the pound drops its Gall about a foot it e hundred yards. Rifles are sighted, therefore, to meet | this deviation. On leaving the barrel, the hall moves above the line of sight, continually failing in a parabolic ] 'urve, till it intersects it. The point of intersection is called the point blank. 1 “ Who invented the rifle is unknown. Its principle wns known to the North American Indians before the discovery ot the continent.

There was something so odd about | ) ,,s appearance and in his manner of performing the mnnuei, that I was convinced he was “ a character,” ’ !lI1( l expressing my belief of that fact. I discovered that I was not far wrong, the following anecdote being i related of him: “ Ptnzc sir,” said the soldier, touching his hat to his captain, “whin will we be paid off, sir?” “In a tew days.

Taylor’s camp, and approaching his tent enquired of a soldier standing by. where the Gener al's “ shanty” was. “ That s Ins tent,'’ said the sentinel, pointing out the General's quarters. “ And is that th< i Gineral’ntentr said Pat., taking off his hat and rubbing Ins hand over his hair which liaJ been cut to the degree of shortness peculiar to natives of Erin's green We.— “ And where’s the Giueral’s ould gray hors.* 1” inquired Pat. “ There” replied the soldier, indicating the spot where the old horse stood lazily whisking the flies sway with Ins tail. “ And is that the old horse !” again in quired the sprig of Erin, with great awe, an’ where, it you plaze sir, is the old gintleman himself*” continued Pat. “ There he sits under that awning ” answered the soldier. “ What,” exclaimed Pat, in almost a whis per and in a tone amounting to reverence. “ an’ is that the old gintleman ?” “ Yes,” said the soldier, walking away, “ that’s General Taylor.” After gazing on the “ war worn veteran” in silent admiration lor a while he at last mustered sufficient courage to approach him “ I beg your pardon Ginernl, hut you’ll plaze excuse the bit of liberty I’m taking in presuming to call on your honor, but it ye plaze sir, I come on a little matther ol business, Ik in’ as I thaught may be you might be afther helpin’ as out ofa little bit of a scrape.” *• Well,” said the General kindly, “ what is the trouble, and what do you wish ?” * If you plaze sir. I’d like to know when the hands will be paid off, sir ?” “When the hands will be paid off?” repeated the General, a little puzzled. “Y is sir, if ye plaze to have the goodness. The hands have had divil the cult of wag-*s since they’ve been in the country.” “ Oh, 1 understand, you’re a volunteer and wish to know when you’ll Ik* paid off. Well my good fellow, you must apply to your company officers for that infor mation, I have nothing to do with it.” Beggin’ your pardon, sir, I did ax the boss about it, but he did’nt give me no son ol satisfaction about it, and so I told the other hands I’d lix it, and bein’ as you’re the head boss I thought I’d be coinin’ over here to see ff you could’nt give us some satisfaction.” The “ head boss” being unable to relieve the anxiety of Pat, the latter retired to the “other hands,” having the satisfaction of saying that although he had foiled in the object of his mission, Im* had seen the “ head boas.” Ins “ shanty,” and “ the ould grey horse,” w'hich was “ glory enough for one day.” The w’iiul.

And where does it go to ? ” ‘• It goes back to heaven, my child, and again to earth returns. It is the breath of the Great Spirit of beneficence, from whom we re ceive all happiness and all joy.

The second annual meeting and fair of this issociation. will be held at the Stone Moun ain, in DeKalb county, Georgia, on Wedncs- ; lay. the 11th day of next August. The mem bers particularly, and all persons interested in ihe improvement of southern Agriculture, arc •ordiafly invited to attend. A suitable ad- Iress will be made by Prof. Means of Emory College and a considerable fund already in and. will be distributed in premiums to indi viduals exhibiting the best sjieciuicns of live lock domestic manufactures and agricultural products. The liberal spirit our Railroads .ave heretofore extended to all enterprises of . his kind will doubtless in this instance afford >uch facilites for traveling and transportation, as to enable every man, in this and the adjoin ing states, who has the spirit and the inclina- ! ion to be there with some products of his i skill for tht* fair. The origin and the objects of this nssocia- j tion, may here be properly stated. In answer j to a notice signed by several distinguished ! mid public spirited citizens ol Georgia, and j several I com Tennessee, and South Caroliaia 1 met at tlie Stone Mountain on the 7th of Au- | - j cal Agricultural Association: “ For the purpose ol*enquiring into the re- | sources and faculties of agricultural pursuits i and the advancement of the arts and sciences, j ‘•ormected therewith.and into the best method | of developing the one and illustrating the otli-1 er -” . With a view to the accomplishment of this purpose it is considered that much may be lone by a personal interview del ween intelli gent and enterprising Southern Planter*. At no time past has the wame amount of ability and scienee been enlisted in the cause of ag ricultural improvements, as at the present, and it is confidently hoped that the result of these mighty implements of human knowl edge, thus enlisted will he rommensurate with the importance of the subject, and the liappi- i ness ol the millions of human beings connect- j cd therewith.— The only question with us is: , how we can best appropriate these r. suits for tile benefit ot ourselves and of those imru di ately around us and the only answer we can give is the social and friendly intercourse b tween planters ot the various sections of the South ; which would grow out of an associa tion like this, we are attempting to establish. The tine climate and scenery round about the Stone Mountain perhaps the proudest of! Georgia - m iny physical wonders and the fa- ! cility with which it may be reached hv the various lines of Railroads which divege rfroin ! it. as a common centre into the adjoining I i States clearly point it out ns a fit meeting I | ground, at which the planters of the low lands j escaping the sultry heats of August may take ! a pleasant recreation with the brethren of the ; j “ hill country” in communing freely u[w>n top j ies of common and vital interest to both. lin- ! provement in the modes and practices of farm- I mg has not kept pace with the learning and I the development of scientific truths in agrieul- • ture. i The fault is in the planter—continued tar- 1 illness and neglect of these advantages placed within his reach, may tend to discourage the i labors of those who have so disinterestedly de- 1 voted themselves to his interest or to bring into disrepute the valuable truths they have already developed and illustrated. ‘■ On those now in life rests a great respon sibility” THOMAS STOCKS.
