Stcnm Rufiluea-
During the present business im
petus over the country, and the re
vival of her industries, numerous
works for the manufacture and sale
of steam engines arc springing up
through the North and WcRt The
true merit an I real worth of many
machines now on market nrc quite
variant, and the purchaser is anx
ious of course to buy only such an
engine, as will stand the test and
do Ids work for a reasonable term
of years. In this connection wc
take pleasure in calling tiie atten
tion of buyers to the reliable Kii*
gine and Implement Agency of
Messrs White & Miller on Hioad
street, Atlanta. After many years
ol practical experience in ascertain
ing tiie wants of purchasers, aud
in learnig the good from the bad,
these gentlemen oiler to the public
only that which passed the critical
ordeal of time and years nnd every
day use. Messrs White k Miller
would be glad to confer ill person
witli one in Southwest Ga., who
contemplatcH the purchase of an
engine or other Turin machinery.
If you cannot visit Atlanta, send
them for circulars and price
with which tin- Norl hern mills can
not compete. In the cotton mail-
utactiiring districts of Rhode Is
land, there is also hut one opinion
on this subject, but it is under
stood lo be precisely the opposite
of that entertained by the possibly
deluded people ol the ,South.
Mr. Atkinson was of the New
England party. When at Atlanta
he talked much on many subjects,
as is his habit. Hut lie maintained
a studious reserve on the subject,
of manufacturing in the South un
til he had reached Augusta. The
city of Augusta lias half a dozen
very successful cotton mills aud a
canal which will furnish water pow
er for a hundred more. This seem
ed to Mr. Atkinson a favorable
place to give utterance to ins views
on cotton mills in the South. He
accordingly informed a reporter of
Augusta Ohroniclo that lie “was
satisfied the South could not com
pete witli the North in manufactur
ing.” lie thought “sporadic mills
might succeed for a time, but the
time would coujc when the local
demand upon which they depended
ceased, aud they would he no long
er profitable.” The Northern mills
wore nearer the great mai Icets, and
have the advantage of concentra
tion in largo towns and cities. They
have un unlimited supply of (ir»l-
class operatives in the French Can
adians, who cannot be induced to
go South. Southern mills must
depend upon native while: labor,of
which the supply is limited, and
the quality not tiie best. Habit,
too, is uu important consideration
in Ids opinion. “The habit of
knack of using his knowledge ef
fectively. He is a practical manu
facturer, too. If such a man us
this, familiar witli every condition
of the problem, can point out no
more serious obstacles to the pro
gress of cotton manufacturing in
tin* South than these, there is noth
ing to tear. The truth is that Mr.
Atkinson and his feilow-inaiHifuc-
ttilers are unable to look at the
question without prejudice. Thejr
judgments are unconsciously warp
ed by their supposed interests.
Tlieir jealousy of the South, (hough
nati mi I, is unnecessary. New Kng-
laiul mumi lecturers have no occas
ion to fear the rivalry of cotton
mills In the Southern States. The
two will supply widely different
fields. New England mills have
already given up coarse goods and
are producing prints and line, fan-
oy, high-priedd stuff*. The market
for heavy goods still exists, how
ever, and is every year growing
larger. Thn South’s struggles will
not be with New England, but
with Old England. Lowell, Fall
River and Providence can afford
to look on without fear of injury
to tlieir local interests.

Alexander II. Stephens recently
said on the tariff question. “The
tariff, the tariff, and the Southern
opinion regarding it! 1 uin nob

the people of the- South give much
thought to it. Hut for myself, 1
made up my mind before I left col

especially upon urticles which we
can produce here, is decidedly the
wisest, host, ami most judicious
mode of raising revenue for' the
support of the government, and 1
have never changed my views. I
was brought up in Henry Olay’s
school, though I never went to the
length lie did. The tariff is an
economic question, but the politi
cians have made it a political one
—very unwisely, I think. There
should bo no difference of opinion
as to the wisdom of a judicious tar

.South; ami it is so to both. It
must be revised, aud that for the
general interests of tiie whole coun

will be no sectional-bearing in it.
