The Stars asd Garters op the Press— The
London Timet, in an able article on the power of
the press, says that the potency of a newspaper
lies in the fact that it is a newspaper, and not a
sheet of tales and essays. “The public press, savs
the Times, “has purchased its right to express its
opinions bv the facilities which it has given every
mao for firming his own." “As to the favors
which the press can confer, the Times says :
“What is the Red Eagle or the Legion of Honor
to a paragraph of praise which is repeated in hun
dreds of dailv, weekly and monthly sheets, and
makes some humble name a household word from
Cornwall to Shetland.'in Toronto and Melbourne,
m Calcutta and Hong Kong.”
Baltimore San.
The Fever. —The epidemic is plainly on the in
crease, for not only were the deaths by the yellow
fever fifteen, as given in by the Sexton, but they
have taken place in all parts of the city. In lo
calities hitherto healthy, and among classes deem
ed exempt, the victims have been picked out by
the destroyer.
In such a state of the case, we cannot but again
caution our absentees not to be i« a hurry to re
turn home. It seems scarcely probable, at this
time of writing, that any show of frost will follow
on the heavy fall of rain on Sunday night and
Monday morning: for the temperature is as mild
now as'at any time during the last week

Management ami Government of Cotton
Factories.
Mr. Editor: Cotton spining factories, like all
other establishments where a largo capital is in
vested for the purpose of manufacturing any par
ticular kind of goods upon an extensive scale, re
quire to be very skillfully managed, in order to
make them profitable, either for producing a su
perior quality of goods, or turning off a large
quantity, in proportion to the extent of the ma
chinery. All the different apartments may be ar
ranged in the most judicious manner, and every
machine made aud adjusted, on the most ap
proved principle, and yet the establishment and
the mode of government, which generally prevail,
may be greatly deficient in respect, both to the
quantity and quality of its produce. Considering
ihe amount of capital invested m these establish
ments, it might be expected that proprietors would
be much more scrupulous with respect to ability
and merit, in the choice of those to whom they
confide the charge of the different departments,
than they frequently are, hence the reason why
certain proprietors realise a high profit Irom their
establishments, whilst others can scarcely secure
the interest of the capital.
It is an erroneous opinion to suppose that any
person who may not have been early and long
practised in the business, cau, notwithstanding,
acquire as much knowledge by ,their own expe
rience, in the course ol a lew months, as will quali
fy them for taking a full charge of a factory. It
will be admitted that those who,have been brought
up to the business, where they had many oppor
tunities of seeing the methods of adapting the
different machines to suit the various qualities of
cotton and sizes of yarn, and,’ who know how to
adjust machinery in the event of any little acci
dents or errors that frequently occur in practice,
must possess a decided advantage over those who
have not enjoyed so favorable opportunities. It
would be advantageous for the overseer of a cot
ton mill to have a thorough knowledge of the .
business in all its details, as without this he must
sometimes leave much of the management of cer- :
tain departments to others, and they, occupying i
only a subordinate station, are likely to feel a 1
subordinate responsibility ; hence may arise much 1
mismanagement, attended with loss to Ihe pro
prietors. The manager who knows his business, i
can both give directions to Ihose that are under i
him, as well as discern whether they are qualified
for the situations they occupy, and "when they fail
in their duty.
It is a most essential qualification on the part 1
of the manager that he be expert in performing
all kinds of calculations connected with the bnsi- ,
ness ; in regulating the speed of the different ma- :
chines ; and iij making changes in the qualities of 1
the cotton and sizes of the yin regulating
the speed of the Various machines, particularly in i
the preparation department, it is important to 1
have them so that the one shall not be over driv- ]
en, nor the other working at an under speed. Let i
the carding engines be adjusted to such a speed
us will suit the nature of the cotton und the quali- '
ty of the yarn for which they are preparing it; the
speed of the drawing frame should be regulated
to take up exactly what the cards bring forward
without any unnecessary loss of time on the part ,
of either, and all the other machines should be
regulated in the same manner. But it might be
desirable to ascertain the most advantageous
speed, at which Ihe different machines should be
driven fertile various qualities of yarn. The num
ber of carding engines that should he allowed to
the drowing-trame is important. The proper ad
justment of the draughts on the different machines
"is also of equal importance to a proper arrange
ment of the speed. Excess of draught on any one
machine, while there is less than necessary on
another, should be uniformly avoided. In work
ing an inferior quality of cottun, there is always a
less quantity of yarn produced in a given time,
but a much greater quantity of waste; besides,
the yarn being of au inferior quality, is likely to
hurt the credit of the manufacturer; whereas a
superior quality will always support his credit,
command a fair price and’secure a sale, so that
he will often have his money when others have
their stock.
Another primary object in the management of
a factory, that ought to be studied, is the avoiding
all unnecessary expense by alterations on the plan
of the gearing, or arrangement of the machinery,
especially such as might only be adapted to please
the eye rather than improve the productive capa
bilities of the establishment.
To have the large gearing all fitted up on the
most approved plan, and the machinery arranged
in the manner beat calculated to facilitate the pro
gress of the work, are doubtless objects of the
greatest importance, but when ouce the establish
ment has been fitted with machinery, and all its
arrangements completed, it is better to let it remain
as it is, than try to improve it; and indeed, to be
gin then to make alterations, would be highly ob
jectionable, because the money expended on these
alterations might far exceed all the advantages
arising from the supposed improvements. To keep
all the machinery in good repair and in the best
working order, cannot be too highly recommend
ed ; as without doiug so, it is impossible to pro
duce a regular and uniform good quality of yarn ;
and to keep machinery in good order, by regular
care and attention, is much easier than to repair it
after it has been allowed to go out of repair from
negligence aud want of care.
Prodigious sums are wastcfully expended every
year, wliich would be saved by a| more thorough
acquaintance with true principles of science and
art. Several individuals who have embarked vast
fortunes in factories, are, to a very great extent,
the victims at least, if not the dupes, of scheming
managers, who are ever ready to display their per
verse ingenuity, by the substitution of some in
tricate trap for a simpler but less showy mechan
ism. There have been many cases where a com
plete system of good machinery, capable of doing
excellent work, has been capriciously turned out
of a cotton factory, and replaced by another of
greater expense, but of less productive powers and
less suited to the style of work than the old one,
if skillfully managed.
These substitutions are continual in inanv estab
lishments. They interfere most essentially, and
often unnecessarily, with the going of the mill,
and are referable almost always to injudicious
choice at first, and capricious alterations after
wards—circumstances over which the proprietor,
from ignorance of the structure of a good muchine,
cannot always venture to exercise the proper con
trol. There are, no doubt, many mill managers
perfectly fitted, by judgment, knowledge, and in
tegrity, to second the sound commercial views of
he mill owner, and to advance the business with
a profitable career. These practical men form the
soul of the factory system. Hut with a wrong
headed, plausible manager, the proprietor is sure
to be lea such a mechanical dance as will bewilder
him complete!}*, unless he has acquired a clear in
sight into the arcana of the business, by deliberate
studv of the composition and performance of each
machine in his factory. It may be supposed that
this species of education can be most easily ac
quired in the midst of the machinery itself; hut
this is a mistake, which experience speedily
proves.
The object of manufactures is to modify the pro
ductions of nature into articles of necessity, con
venience, or luxury, by the most economical and
unerring means. They have all three principles of
action, or three organic systems—the mechanical,
the moral, and the commercial, which may not un
aptly be compared to the muscular, the nervous,
and the sanguiniferous systems of an animal.
They have also three interests to subserve— that of
the operative, the owner, and the State; and must
seek their perfection in the due development and
administration of ,*-»oh. The mechanical being
should always be subordinate to the moral constH
tution, and both should co-operate to the commer
cial efficiency. Three distinct powers concur to
their vitality—labor, science, capital; the first des
tined to move, the second to direct, and the third
to sustain. When the whole are in harmony, they
form a body qualified to discharge its manifold
functions by an intrinsic, self-governing agency,
like those o's organic life. G. S. W.

The Clotton Crop.
The bt autlful weather in September (which month has been
freer from storms of wind or ruin titan any similar period at
the South for many years) lms not only matured the crop
rapidly, but lias enabled the planters to make rapid progress in
picking. The rust has injured the growth in many districts,
and the overflow probably wiped out 200,000 bales, but the re
maining yield Is now almost Independent of the quest loti of
frost, an.l is set down, generally, at about 8,300,000 bales. The
picking Is several weeks (some say one month) < arller than
usual, and this will bring an increased quantity into market at
an early date. If any of our readers have not calculated for
themselves the value of this crop, a few figures iu that connec
tion will both Interest and surprise them, if we take 8,800,000

Mr. 8. M. King: In compliance with your request, I take |
pleasure in reporting my experience in the use of one of your j
Shingle Machines. My inachiue Is located about 17 miles be- '
low Augusta, near the Augusta and Savannah Railroad : the 1
material used is cypress; power, a small portable engine, on !
wheels, which can be conveniently moved from place to place I
by a pair of mules or horses. The machine works admirably,
tully up to all you claimed for it, and fur beyond mv expectn- [
tlon. This machine Is operated hy one white man, (having no :
experience In the use of machinery.) and common plantation
negroes. It turns out from 7,000 to 12.000 .shingles per day, 1
(ol ten working liouts,) depending entirely upon the supply. *

I have witnessed the operation of the above machine, and !
concur ftilly in the above statements; and would further !
say that It* simplicity and durability so far surpasses any- 1
thing that I have seen for making shingles, that I would have
no other at any price. If I could get the one above alluded to. j
This machine can easily be attached to the common Gin
Gearing, and worked by any common plantation hand,

Augusta, Ga., September* 9, 1858.
I have seen Mr. S. M. King’s Shingle Machine “rive” 15
shingles within 30 seconds, and without hesitation I assert that
If well attended, it will “rive, draw and joint,” in the most I
complete manner, 15,000 within 12 hours. It is the best kind
of machine for the purpose that I haw seen in motion.
