Thuraday Normig, October 11, 1866. gg- T. P. S1.DhR, E4., is the iole agont for this paper in Charleston - S C. t- Mr. JA&. 11. Smi, formerly of this place, but now residing iii Charlotte, N. C. is dur authorized. agent for the NEws. * Mr. SMITH tau be found at the Imeoe6. The doutitutional Amendment. This amendment to the Constitution whi6h we have published, and which irs adol:tid by Congresf, seems now tc, be the prominent issue before th Counjtry. it Is so sweeping in its pro 0'i 1our !4b1est, best and most L)rAminert ma id the Suuth, that it appe. n imp-)ssilility to ex po hi lIate Cunfedera 1(I be cmplished if we < - ?u' wt seoute re P ty so 4oing, I Just rest upoa uU. to await future developi.iau.. if all the Northern, States, and enough of the boider States ratify it, to make it a part of the Constitution, we can only submit. But it does not appear that anything but evil will arise to South Carolina if it becomes a part of the supreme law of the laud, and therefore it is ad visable to let it become so, as far as' we are concerned, by default on our part, Several prominenf papers in the South, we are told, are about to advo cate its ratification. It will require a' good deal of consideration o$ a weighty character to bring us to the positioa.that we can in the least bet. ter ourselves by a similar advocaey. Ootton Manufacturies in the South. The indications around us, says -the Charleston News,point unmistakably to the fact that notwithstanding%the gloomy political prospects, the South is arousing herself for a great forward fadvance in material prosperity. Look around in every direction, and you will hear of new and important> enter prises, of such a nature, if carried out as will add greatly to the wealt4j and power of the country. Among these important indications, the manufac ture of cotton goods, f6r which the South is most peculiarly suited, ap pears to be receiving more than ordi nary attention. Perhaps there is no single branch of industry that this se6 tion could more readily take hold of with a certainty of success than the production of the va-ious kinds of fabrics which are made of the cotton wool, which is so abundantly rai4od throughout these States. In England this pursuit has reached gigantic pro. portions, and the cotton mill has been the means of building up some of the largest fortunes in that country, The same process is now adding heavily to the growth of New England,and in both cases the advantages bestowed by na ture are not to bie compared to those which have been bountifully given to the Cotton States. Columbia, tha Capital-of this State, astown beautiful ly. locate-d by nature, although at pres eat presenting only an evidence of the barbarous ravages of war, might, in a few years, by a judicious use of. capi tal on the water power of the Broad .and Salurda RLivers, innidiately adja.. cent, .be made a beaittiful city of 50, * 000 or 100,000 .inhabitants. Our va rious exchangos contain notices at times of the progress of this branch of industry, aind in the .region of which * Montgomnery,. Alabama, is the bentre, we see tho 'foll6#wing .establishmeuts 'noticed .A t Prattville,font.ep mile. from Montgomery, a factor .gves oc oupation to three hundred anid Afty.la borers.

William Gregg, of Aiken, W. R. Robertson of Wiunsboro, and Ar. chibald Cameron, of Charleston, have been appointed by His Excellency, Commissioners to locate the Peniten tiary and to prepare plans and speci fications for the saine,to be submitted to the Legislature at its next session. These gentlcmen will meet in Colum. bia on the 15th inst. Hon. D. Wyatt Aiken has been al - pointed to negotiate the purchase of corn, ordered at the last session for the relief of the destitute. . We believe Gov. Orr could not have made a better selection for the impor tantpurp-se of locaffng a Penitentiary than the above. We do- not know Messrs, Gregg or Cayheron except by reputation as excellent pra'tical inen, but we do know that, Mr. Robertson Judge of our District'dourt, is a gen tleman of the most excellent practical judgment, a quality so much needed in the duty assigned the Commission ers to locatt a Penitentiary. We do not know any better appoint -ment than Col. D. Wyatt Alken, In ,the important matter of buylng 300, 000 bushels of corn in the West for the benefit of the needy of the State, The facts below which need no argu. ment we clip from the Carolinian. . Our readers will observe that in the paragraph headed "real estate," it is expressly stated that "all of the above lands was thin." With that statement it is easy to infer that thee, was n10 great sacrifice "on the auction bleok." But obsoive the second paragraph on "sales by the Commissioner." l cept two tracts in the list of lands it will be discovered that the lots averaged about thirteen ($18) dollars per acre in currency. That does not seem to be so great a sacrifice "on the auction block." 0 FACTS TAT NEED NO ARGUM1ENT. -~The following paragraph, which we find in the last issue of the Carolina Spartan, speaks in trumpet tones.. The -truth now conm'es. home. Property is being sa6rificed en' the auction block. More than that.
