Buted far moire to the nqaterial
prosperity of his country, than
thousands who have filled public
offices and gained great distinction,
lie was one of the pioneers in the
manufacture of cotton in the Southern
States, and with great skill, energy
and industry, he mainly assisted
in building up cotton factories
in Spartan bhrg, Laurens and
Greenville Districts. These factories
have given employment to
hundreds and thousands of poor
families since the 'year 1819,
when he entered the Weaver Factory,
on Tyger River, in Spartan
burg District, a poor and friendless
boy. These fncturies have
likewise contributed largely to the
wealth and convenience of the
whole upper country. They have
also encouraged the erection of
others in the middle districts, and
in Georgia, North Carolina, Tennessee
and other States.
Mr. Rates was born in Ruode
Island, in the year 1800, and was
seventy two years old at his
death, a week or two since. Li is
father was a farmer, living twentymiles
west of Providence, and at
the early ago Of eight years, he
was placed in the cotton factory of
Meters. Green, of Rhode Island,
which was the second establish '
ureal, of the kind, ever operated
in the United btaies. The first, being
that of the Slitter's, located in
i'awiuckct, Rhode Island, or what
is now known as North i rovi

in 1805, unci was much inter,

Messrs. Col and Hsmmett, carried
on a most tncCewfnl business
for many ysarli During the idte
civil war, Batcsville was sold by
the proprietors for three hundred
and forty thousand dollars, to a
company organized in Charleston,
of wbicu the Hon. Gcofge^Trenholtn
was the principal capitalist.
Mr. Bates was a great machin

proud monument to bis memory,
erected under bis own supervision,
and by lus own skill, energy and
industry. It will strike a traveler
as a beautiful little village. If be
stops to see the cotton factory, be
will find everything constructed
witli skill and taste, 'with all the
improvements of the present.time.
Tiie large sum tor which Batesville
wa-> sold, was mostly invested
