AUGUSTA. GKA.
WEDNESDAY MORNING, APRILBI, ’69
COTTON FAOTOBIES—OR ANIT£ VILLF,
The remarkable success of the Augusta
Cotton Factory created a great sensation
at the North, and drew the attention of
practical men to developments of Southern
resources hitherto vaguely understood or
little regarded. At the South, likewise,
there was a partial shaking of dry bones,
and numbers of respectable Rip Van Win
kles condescended to believe that there
were enterprises before them superior to
huckstering in bonds from day to day.
True, these sleepy parties have not quite
awakened to a full perception of the great
possibilities of Southern home industries,
but it is something to have shocked their
drowsy senses, preliminary to future
Illumination. Abroad, however, our won
derful, though isolated, demonstrations
have borne excellent fruit, and Northern
capital only awaits the encouragement of
our timid capitalists to come forward and
speed the work of improvement.
The South is unrivalled, in many respects,
for the production of cotton fabrics. _ The
Staple is grown at the very doors of the
factory; water power is abundant; trans
portation is not dear; the demand even at
home is steady, and must constantly in
crease. The great drawback, perhaps, is
skilled labor in such proportions as to In
sure a cheapness beyond that of New
England. Immigration will remedy this,
at no distant period, and then it will only
need a corresponding display of energy
among our people to stagger the pride of
the Puritan on chosen fields of monopoly.
Already the Southern manufacturer of
Georgia and South Carolina can lay his
goods down in New York at prices corres
ponding with those of New England mill
owners. Ho much for competition abroad.
At home, our manufacturers should dis
tance all foreign rivalry, and monopolize
the demand. It is estimated that of the
3,000,000 blacks alone, ten yards of cot
ton cloth for each person, annually,
are certainly required. Here we have
a demand l'or 30,000,000 yards to sup
ply single item. The money value of
these goods will amount to $5,000,000; a
very handsome sum, which is well worth
beeping at home. In addition to this, it is
reckoned that the white population of 8,-
000,000 will require twenty yards annually
for each person, amounting in currency to
about $27,000,000. If this showing is cor
rect, and we have no reason to believe it
exaggerated, the South has It in her power,
if she has the will, to keep within her own
borders $32,000,000, a large portion of which
is now permitted to go abroad and stay
there. There will be another immense ben
efit attendant upon such displays of energy
—the benefit of securing labor to many of
our people whose time is either frittered
away in slovenly efforts at betterance, or
else worse than wasted, in many instances,
by trifling with learned professions they
can neither utilize nor adorn. Nothing but
some such progress 8s this will rouse the
sluggard or shame the ornamental trifler.
It will be a great gain when parents and
children understand that “It hurts no in
tellect to be able to make a plow or ham
mer a horse shoe; and to do either of these
is to have nothing to fear from fortune.”
Whffckyve are all proud of the splendid
factory iii tins city, and recognize In It a
prodigious power for the common weal, it
is permissible to devote a few brief para
graphs iu praise of a noble rival which is
so close to us that we can almost claim it
as a friend rather than a neighbor.
Everybody in Augusta is aware that the
village of Graniteville is but twelve miles
by rail from this tdty; yet we venture to
say that comparatively few of our citi
zens have taken the trouble to visit it. Un
til very recently,' the writer was among the
number of derelict in this respect; but hav
ing had occasion to spend a bright Spring
day exploring the beauties of that pic
turesque spot, he can testify that anew
pleasure exists for all who wish to seek it,
snd that Graniteville anil its factory are
sights that will inspire the dullest brain to
something like enthusiasm. The village
itself, composed principally of cottages for
the residence of the operatives, is agree
ably situated, and has a neat and thrifty
appearance. Beside the dwellings, there
are several stores, churches and a school
house. The Columbia and Augusta Rail
road passes through the main street.—
Parallel with this street and the railway
there is a long and superbly constructed
canal, which draws its waters from Horse
Creek, nearly two miles away, and fur
nishes the power that makes the factory
a bee-hive of motion and profit. The fac
tory buildings proper are situated in a val
ley considerably below the water level.
Along the canal, the warehouses and offices,
connected by a substantial iron fence, keep
as it were, over the treasures be
neath them. Uplike the Augusta Factory,
the Graniteville buildings are low. Great
height, where land is cheap, is not desira
ble, and length is preferred to altitude.
The weaving room is built of the finest
brick ; the other buildings are constructed
of‘granite, from the neighboring quarries.
A spacious garden fronts the factory, deftly
surrounded with the giant box plant, which
protects from spoliation the myriads of
flowers filling the air with fragrance and
delighting the senses of those who know
how to enjoy things of beauty amid the
hours of honest toil. In the location of the
village; in the trimness of the dwellings;
in the substantial character of theoutbuild
ings; in the artistic finish of the walks
and garden; in the solid masonry and
graceful finish of the mills; in all the
surroundings of Graniteville, we beheld
that rare union of use and embellishment
which may well be considered the perfec
tion of human ambition. TETs happy con
junction existed in no man more than in the
late Wm. Gregg, who has been aptly styled
the “ Father of Graniteville;” who spent
some of the noblest years ever accorded
mortality in teaching the world around
him the value of native energy wisely di
rected, and that the most exalted effort of
the human intellect is to ally content
and labor, happiness and industry, poverty
and virtue. How successful he was, Gran
iteville is the abiding witness, and while
we believe that the factory has no superior
in the South, we are happy to know that
a better regulated community of opera
tives does not anywhere exist.
The Graniteville faptorv has 20,616 spin
dles, and 577 looms. The average produc
tion per week, since January Ist, has been
175,616 yards. Many of the spindles, looms,
and other implements of manufacture, are
of recent importation from the best Euro
pean and Northern workshops. In this re
spect the Graniteville factory is In ad
vance of many of its competitors. Among
these imported machines we were particu
larly struck with an English “Opener.”
This is a species of gin through which
the cotton is passed for cleaning purposes
prior to being carded. The capacity of this
machine is equal to two or more of the old
pattern, and it takes into its iron bowels
the dirtiest garments of the “ Ki ng” and then
ejects them as white as snow. We have
not space to detail the entire process of
manufacture, beginning with the raw sta
ple in the bale; its trarisit through the
“ Opener;" the combing of its matted locks
by the Card and Drawing Frames; Its tor
tuous curling by “Stubbers,” “Interme
diates,” “ Jacks,” “ Ring Frames ’’ and
“ Mules.” Time does not allow us to show
how it is “ spooled,” , “ warped ” and
“dressed,” before entering the great weav
ing room, where the nimble fingers of wo
men aud men, yon ng and old, guide it into
cloth. Nor can we, much as we desire, stop
to tell how, from the clatter and the clangor
of the weaving apartment, it is taken away
and then trimmed, folded, inspected, stamp
ed, baled and hauled to the South Carolina
Railroad for transportation. We must de
fer, likewise, all but the merest mention of
tiie Factory Fire Department, which is one
of the most efficient we have ever seen, and
whose precautions against the invasions of
conflagration are really marvels of inge
nuity.
But before concluding this necessarily
hurried and imperfect sketch, we must not
forget one of the most important items of
all, viz.: the management of this magnifi
cent enterprise, and the result of their
labors. At present the officers of the com
pany are :
11. H. Hickman, President.
J. J. Gregg, Superintendent.
J. H. Gii.es, Secretary.
W. E. McCov, Bookkeeper.
To their indefatigable exertions, the
present success of the factory is due. By
sagacity and vigilance of the highest
order, the depressions consequent upon the
war have been promptly surmounted, the
stock made among the most desirable in
the market, though very hard to procure,
and a future prosperity guaranteed which
promises golden dividends to the company
and new life to Carolina and the South.
Views of Senator Sprague.
From a long account of an interview
with Senator Sprague, of Rhode Island,
which appears in the New York Herald , we
make the following extract:
“ People say, Governor, that they do not
comprehend exactly what you are driviDg
at. Some insinuate that you are bidding
for the Presidency; others that you want
to cut loose from your party, and still
more state in downright terras that you are
crazy."
“Hold on!” exclaimed the Governor,
“ let me answer the last charge. Yes—l
am crazy—crazy, as every reformer has
been since the beginning of the world. Be
cause I refuse to follow in the ruts of that
set calling itself the Senate of the United
States the cry is raised at once, ‘ Oh!
Sprague is crazy.’ I will let them know
before long exactly how crazy I am. lam
not bidding for the Presidency, either. If
it were offered to me to-morrow I should
only take it ou conditions of being at
liberty to kick out of the White House
every office seeker that dare come into it.—
Not a man should be appointed under
me to office because he was this man’s
friend or that man’s supporter. I would
have an incorruptible board Os examiners
for every office under the Government, and
no man should be appointed unless he
showed the proper capacity to fill it. I
would disregard party altogether, and put
only the best men In the nation in places
of trust; but as I know such a condition of
things can never be attained, the Presi
dency is not my ambition. Neither am I
about to cut loose from my party and at
tach myself to the Democratic. Both, as
parties, are rotten ; but I intend to build
up anew party, in which politics will
have little to do. My party will have for
its one grand principle the reform of our
finances, the rendering of money cheap, the
reduction of taxation, the elevation of the
working classes, the protection of labor,
the improvement of our cotton, agricul
tural, commercial, ancl manufacturing in
terests ; in short, the making of this coun
try really great, strong, and prosperous.
All your talk about the nigger, nigger
suffrage. State rights, women’s rights,
tVbel.s, &c., is only fit for these old gran
nies in Congress. Where is our shippiug
at this moment, ? Who of those men pes
tering our ears all the time about recon
struction, rebels, "niggers, &e., has ever
lifted his voice in favor of the broken-down
commerce that was once our pride and
glory? I tell you, sir, these men would
drive this country headlong to the devil
in their greed for power. This country
to-day is intrinsically weaker than any on
on the face of the globe, not excepting
Mexico. Now, let me explain ; but first
let me enlighten you upon the purpose
of the speech, the opening one of the
late series I made in the Senate. It was
necessary I should draw the attention
of the people to Congress to invite
greater attention to the speech I made
upon the finances and the bill offered
in connection therewith. I began by skir
mishing, my objective point, being the
Treasury—the great national curse. My
scheme was no hurriedly-considered affair.
For three years I have devoted my mind
exclusively to this subject, and you will
find, if I am mad, there was some method
in my madness, after all. You saw how
that first speech awakened a thrill of inter
est throughout the nation. There is some
of the evidence (pointing to a bundle of
letters). Now, if I had made my proposi
tion alone, without any preparation of the
public mind, it might have gone the way
of all like propositions. I hold that the
Treasury is the root of our present evils.
Forty millions of dollars, we will say, are
received there this month. This money
comes out of the pockets of the people.—
One man, whose taxes are large, has per
haps to borrow the money at "a high rate
of interest to pay his 7 indebtedness to the
Government. That money gets into the
Treasury, and lies there hoarded up for
a month or six weeks without producing
a particle of benefit to the Government
or the people. Twenty millions of that
amount, we will say, are paid out by
the Government, and twenty millions re
main. The market in New York, where
the capital of the country is central
ized, is declared scarce. When money is
scarce those who have the least put their
stocks on the market at a low rate to in
duce purchasers and procure capital to car
ry on their business. There is always in
New York a class of speculators who buy
up all such stocks and wait tor the favora
ble time—next month, we will say—when
the Treasury, in place of $20,000,000, pays
out $60,000,000. Then money becomes
abundant, and these stocks are rushed in
upon the market, and the gamblers make
their harvest. You see there is no equilib
rium here. Our money market is all the
timo fluctuating, influenced by that vast,
overgrown corporation, the National Treas
ury. Then, again, all kinds of stocks are
affected in this way. I can go into the mar
ket in New York any day in my business,
and by the process that obtains there, smash,
by my superior_force of capital, the small
dealers that venture competition with me.
The whole country is affected by this. Mo
ney is entirely too dear. The cotton plant
ers at the South pay almost twenty-five
per cent, for the capital to work their plan
tations. i England is the chief market for
cotton, but she is every year extending
her purchases in India and Egypt, and final
ly, by manipulating the markets, she will
damage our cotton interests at the South
irretrievably. Agricultural interests suffer
in the same manner from this dearness of
money. England will, after a while buy
less of our agricultural staples. Capital is
too dear, the cost of transportation too
high, the taxes too many and too crushing,
for our farmers. Same way with the man
ufacturing interests. Twenty years ago
our firm in Rhode Island was among twen
ty little ones; now we have the whole field
But then we crushed out the
others, and are now engaged fighting the
big fellows, until finally New England will
have nothing but a small aggregation of
enormous monopolies, wielding a power
dangerous to the State aud to the liberties
and happiness of the people. But thiuk of
all that money that goes into the Treasury
being committed to the charge of a boy,
formerly a secretary of mine, whereas in
Europe the most responsible men in the
community are Invariably selected for the
duty of receiving and looking after the pub
lic funds. The Treasury, above all things,
should be jealously guarded, and all its in
comes and expenditures scrutinized with
exceeding care.
Lincoln’s Martyrdom.
*
Rose Ryland writes from Washington to
the Rochester Union as follows :
In passing the White House to-day I
could not help recalling the Lincoln era,
and with the recollection came a memory
of the domestic squabbles which took place
in the “ second story front.”
It is a well known fact that Mrs. Presi
dent L. hated the accomplished daughter
of the then Secretary of the Treasury, Miss
Kate Chase—now Mrs. Senator Sprague, of
Rhode Island. I happened to be in Wash
ington at the time of Miss Chase’s marriage
with Governor Sprague, and, as I had ac
quaintances high in favor with the Admin
istration, was of course “behind the scenes.”
I perfectly well remember the “gossip" iu
regard to Mrs. L.’s endeavor to prevent
Abraham from attending the wedding re
ception. It seems cards had been sent to
the Executive Mansion, but Madame Lin
coln, with all the malice and vindictiveness
of an ugly, vulgar woman against a pretty,
refined one, determined that her amiable
spouse should not attend the reception.
Lincolu was an admirer and warm po
litical friend of Chase’s, therefore Tiis ab
sence at such a time was not to be thought
of. In vain Mary Ann pleaded her wo
man’s privilege, and demanded that her
better-half should stay at home. Abraham
insisted, and set forth his right. That
“ set-to ” took place in Mrs. L?s dressing
room, and the music of her voice pene
trated to the utmost end of the house. At
last Mr. Lincoln broke away from his irate
lady and flew to his tiring apartment,
where he donned his swallow-tailed coat,
etc., fully determined for once to have his
own way.
The supposition was, that being a good
man, his affection and love of peace over
came his discretion ; for, determined to
“ kiss and make up,” this model husband
returned in full dress to his wife’s sanctum.
This was too much for a pugilistically in
clined female to bear. She made a dash at
his cravat, and captured part of his whis
kers. The struggle was short, but Mr.
Lincoln followed the example of the Bull
Rim heroes—that is to say s he fought, bled
and run like the best of the aforesaid he
roes, and left Mrs. L. iu possession of the
field and the trophy of the whisker!
Mr. Lincoln rearranged his toilet, and
like a real hero went to the receptiou.
But, alas! iu his case the truth of the
old adage, “ if you dance you must pay the
piper,’’ was fully exemplified.
On his return to the bosom of his family
he found the door leading to his sleeping
room locked. In vain he called on his wife
to open it. She would not. In vain he
used every term of endearment. She was
immovable. So, vanquished in the final
encounter, the poor man had to call upon
the housekeeper for a “ shakedown.* Then
he retired in solitude to reflect upon toe
uncertainty of domestic bliss.
From a woman’s stand-point I have often
questioned myself in regard to one thing:
whether, at the time of Abraham Lincoln’s
death, he was martyred for the first time?
I rather think he was a martyr of many
years standing.
Fanny Fern on Masouline Beauty-
WHAT CONSTITUTES A HANDSOME MAN.
Well, in thp first place, there must be enough
of him ; or, failing in that—but come to think
of it, he mustn’t fail In that, because there can
he no beauty without health, or at least to my
way of thinking. Ip the second place, he must
have a beard ; whiskers as the gods please, but
a beard 1 insist upon, else one might as well
look at a girl. Let his voice have the dash ol
theJNiaenrn, with the mußie of a baby's laugh
in it. Let bis smiles be like the breaking fortb
of sunshine on a spring morning. Asto his
figure, it should bestiong enough to contend
with i man, slight enough to tremble in the
presence of the woman he ioves. Os course, if
lie is a well-made man, it follows that be most
be graceful, on the principle that the perfect
machinery moves harmoniously; therefore,
you and himself and the milk pitqper are safe
neighbors at the table. This style ot handsome
men would no more think of carrying a cane
than he would use a parasol to keep the sun
out of Ids eyes. He can wear gloves, or warm
his h inds in his breast, pockets, as he pledses.
He can even commit the suicidal beauty act of
turning his outside coat collar up over his eyes
on a stormy day, with perfect impunity; the
tailor didn’t make him, and as to his hatter, if
he depends on this handsome man’s patronage
of the “latest spring style,” I fear he would
die of hope deferred; and yet-by Apollo!
what a bow he makes, anti what an expressive
adieu lie cau wave with his hand ! For all this
he is uot conceited, for he hath brains!
Aut your conventional 11 handsome man ” of
the l arber’s wiudow, wax figure-head pattern ;
wilhapetloek in the middle of his forehead,
an apple-sized head, and a raspberry moustache
with six hairs in it, paint pot ou his cheek, and
a little dot ot a “ goatee ” on his chin, with
pretty blinking little studs iu his shirt bosom ;
and a little neck-tie that looks as if he would
faint were it tumbled, I’d ns lief look at a
poodle. 1 always feel a desire to nip it up with
a pair of sugar-tongs, drop it gently into a
bowl of cream, and strew pink rose leaves over
the little remains.
Finally, my readers, when soul magnetizes
soul, the question of beauty is a dead letter.
Whom one loves is always handsome ; the
world’s arbitrary rules notwithstanding ; there
fore, when you say, “ what can. the handsome
Mr. B. see to admire in that stick of a Miss J.?”
or “ what can the pretty Miss B. see to like in
that homely’ Mr. C ?” you simply talk nonsense
—as yon generally do on such subjects. Still
the parson gets his fees and the census goes on
all the same.
Lord and Lady Byron.— lt was her firm
helief that it was wrong for her to live with
him any longer, though the conduct which led
to this belief-she kept a secret from the world ;
but in spite of all, in spite ol misrepresenta
tion and abase and calumny, she loved him
still. She loved him to the last with a love
that was not in his power to destroy. She
gloried in his fame, aud she would not interfere
between him and.the public, who adored him,
any more than she would admit the public to
judge between him and her. As we have said,
her love endured to the last. It was her for
tune which gave him the means of pursuing
his mode of life abroad. He spent the utmost
shilling ot her property that the law gave him
while he lived; and he left away from her
every shilling that he could deprive her of by
his will, and what the course of life tvas, which
he thus supported, he himself has left on re
cord. Yes, after all this, the interview which
she had with his servant after his death show
what a depth of passion lay concealed under
her reserve. It will be remembered that, when
Byron knew himself to be dying he called to
his man Fletcher and desired him to “goto
Lady Byron and—.” Here his utterance be
coming unintelligible till he said : “Yon will
tell her this:” and Fletcher was obliged to re
ply, “ I have not heard one syllable that you
have been saying.” “Good God!” exclaimed
the dying man ; but it was too late for more.
Fletcher did “go to Lady Byron,” but during
the whole interview she walked up and down
the room, trying to stifle her sobs and obtain
power to ask the questions which were snrgiog
in her heart. She could not speak, and be was
obliged to leave her.
f Miss Martineau's Recollections.
A Bea Monster.—We learn that Captain
Perry, of the Light House schooner, who has
charge of the buoys in this Distiict. discovered
on the sth inst., off St. Simons, what he sup
posed to boa dead sea monster floating on the
surface of the water. He says that the portion
above the water was some twenty. -five feet in
length and five or six feet iu height. He esti
mated the length of the head to be twelve feet.
The upper jaw was thrown back, presenting a
mouth of extraordinary dimensions. How
many feet of the body was concealed beneath
the surface of the waves the captain could not
pretend to iorm an estimate. In its back were
three or four grooves running the entire length
of that part of the body which was visible. It
had tins similar to those of a whale. The cap
tain states that he saw the same monster again
off Cumberland Sound, and that the Light
House keeper at Cumberland Island reported
to him that it bad floated in and out on three
or four tides, and that he had “ pulled ” for it,
but upon a near approach he became fearful
that it was not dead, and therefore thought it
best to give it a wide berth.
It is further alleged that a' distinguished nat
uralist, now in this city, has offered a reward of
SI,OOO for the head of the monster, and that
Capt. Perry, with his vessel, is now in active
pursuit, and expects to be able to claim the re
ward in the course of a few days. If he should
succeed he will not only gain a handsome re
ward, but be the means of adding an Interesting
ebapter-to some valuable work on natural his
tory.—Savannah News, 20fA.

Notice from the. Louisville Courier.
“ The attention of tho pub ic is e i'lcd to an adver
tisement headed Chflltreusi* Elixir or Jesuits’ Secret.
It Is said to l>c the m-'et ■ ffeetive cure for the diseases
enumerated evei daeoi red. It is certainly creating
a sensation in the rm dicitl world, and Us discovery
will be hailed with delight by thousands who have
been hopelessly afflicted.
“It is core effective than the Hot Springs of Arkan
sns, many persons having returned front that fountain
of health unrelieved have been cured permanently by
its use. It is the discovery of one of the most emi
nent and successful physicians on the Continent,
whose faith in its curative qualities is sufficiently at.
testedyby thousands. We have been assured hy gen
tlemen wh.h whom we are well ocqu..toted, that they
have seen cures effected in the line o( diseases It pro
iesscs to treat that had baffled the skill of physicians
of the greatest and highest standing. We,
therefore, do not hesitate to endotse to the confidence
of the afflicted."
Notioe from the Louisville Journal.
“ We invitß attention to Mr. Wa. G. Gray’s adver
tisement of this newly discovered and most wonderful
remedy. It is called the ‘Jesuits’ Secret,’ might he
called the Secret of Perpetual Youth. Its invigorat
iug, beautifying, and life piolonging qualities are cer
tainly unsurpassed ; nay, they are unequaled In this
respect, It throws the famous Hot Springs in Arkan
sas, almost magical as they are, far into the shade. It
throws into the shade everything of the kind, indeed,
except the Fountain of Youth which Ponca dk Lbon
soueht, and from which the Bli'xir seems to have been
gathered. But we will not undertake to describe the
properties of this panacea. It can be tried more easily
than described or imagined.”
Notice from the New Albany {lnd.) Commercial,
« The Jesuits’ Bsorst.— We take pleasure in call
ing the attention of our readers to the advertisement of
the above named medicine. We have heard one of the
most prominent physicians of Louisville speak in high
terms of this preparation ; therefore, we have no hesi
tancy in saying that we consider it at least as good, if
not the best medicine for Scrofula, Rheumatism, and
kindred afflictions, whloh has yet been offered to the
public. It is-not mcmcme, out a prescription
suen as the most learned physicians give to their pa
tents.” 3ai)26-tulhsasc6ni

ECONOMY!
Time, Money and Labor Saved.
THE AUTOMATIC CLOTHES WASHER
AND BOILER.
r TniS most useful invention has been introduced
into this city hy the undersigned, who guarantees the
performance of all that is claimed for it. The cost is
comparatively trifling—SlX DOLLARS—when is
considered the amount of time, money and labor saved
hy its use.
This Boiler operates upon purely philosophical prin
ciples.
It is self-acting, and dispenses entirely with labor
and the wear of clothes.
The hot suds and steam, hy the action of fire, are
driven up through tubes, poured upon the clothes,
and forced through the fabric with astonishing rapid
ity, cleansing it perfectly without any rubbing. It has
been thoroughly tested, and pronounced unequoled as
a Clothes Washer hy those who have used it.
All fabrics, from the finest laces to the bed blanket,
can he washed perfectly and with case, without the
aid of the i uhhiug-hoard. For Flannels it is invalua
ble, ns the tubbing, rolling and pressing process must
necessarily full them more or less.
It is truly a labor and clothes saving invention.—
Washing will no longer be a hardship, and washing
day no longer a terror and a dread to housewives.
The invention can be used in any boiler, and the
low price of the article places it within the reach of
every family.
The saving in the wear of clothes will very soon pay
fpr the outlay.
It is estimated that 200 to 300 gallons of boiled snds
pass through the clothes in thirty minutes; this being
the longest time required-for ctearslng a boiler full of
clothes.
I refer, confidently, to the following named gentle
men, who have seen the Automatic Washer and
Boiler in operation •
Rev. Jambs 8. Lamas, K. R. Schmkidbb, I)r. W.
