We si lall commence with the great and novel article* the importance of Which has been, so miraculously increased in the United States, by measure* like tliese, and which rapidly advancing to the character. of the. .'greatest maleHal foe clothing, furniture, and diversified equipment)' on the face of' the eartk. < ?**_ COTTON.?:; . . ? Wfcf woollen manufactures of Europe constitute. one of tbc greatest rivals of the cotton gyration uf the Urilted States, ftmcTof the increasing manufacture, at frame and dbrorid?\>f that -illimitable raw material* , It is an instructive fact, that the woollen manufactures of Great- Britain Jut v e been steadily computed at little mow than1 sixteen millions sterling per annum, for the whole period between the peace of 1783, -and the begi nninffi of the pre sent ^*avin the year 1803.? The weight of the wooi annually consumed there, varies lit "HSlroiw the weight of our whole turfilu*. cotton, as exported in the greatest yefcr. If 6Ur cotum&hall be impeded by the bel ligerents Hi ks way to foreign markets, we must and shall manufacture many cot ton ?o<M|e>. to jb to rival foreign woollen^.

An effect of their cotton manuffiftture has been to keep the wootkn manufacture sta t tfonary in England fttfWenty years, during. i| which the cotton branch has been raised from less than one pntllioh sterling tomowtf than "?*? i malfrinl m'H ft0 BK?e? the manufac - I J ft sound maximal ?Wc find it proved by the fcoutse of eventf, evert in the instances of the most unnMMftftry, luxurious and difficult branch es.

We have nothing* to do in regard to those last five raw materials, but to increase their quantity, and to amelio rate their manufacture. It is the presence of cotton Onjyi as a redundant raw mate rial, which is to produce in the Uuited States a new proof of the tiuth of the max im, that the frrctcnce the rux g maierntf | | wit 42 wfrt end firodmce Me cort e*/ionding mtmvjktiures. __Mttnyjyaiportaill articles of public: sup-/ ply, for which the country paid Excessive prices, in the revolutionary war, can be made of the cotlon, which Eurqpc; inter rupts in its way to foreign marketgC We were not aware, that we possessed" the" sources ot this profuse raw material , neither had wethe<gin to free it from the seed ; nor the carding and spinning ma chinery, with which to manufacture it. We were not aware, that it would malte blankets, of which (of foreign wool) there are twenty-fire millions of pounds weight in daily use within our country, lt? utility in girth webbing for military saddles, for belts of various kinds* for pantaloons, vest, jacket, trowser, frock, shirt, sheet, tent, knapsack, wagon, and sail cloths, Twilled and untwiUcdr would ensure and cheapen that great mass of army and navy supplies, which have been made' of ravens duck, drilling, sheeting, ti'cklenbcrgs, clow lass, girth webbing, and even - sometimes of leather, as in the case of belts. If the tnili- 1 wrjf blanket, by land ami sea, ought to be of wool, except in hospitals and garrisons, still the manufacture of cotton blankets fa- ! militates and insures the command of wool-~ ten blankets in time of war* , FoMtfcere could be no difficulty, in a war of vfttuous and sound principle, to obtnm frnm HuT private owners of three millions and one half of woollen J^kokets, now and -always . in ufc> the exchange of a sufficient quan tity for the soldiers and mariners, to be paid for jn uew, clean and good cotton i blankets, on fair terouu* . , ? ^ jl iic tu*rgci on uie exportation ot cot* ton wool to J?urope, and upon importing it in manufactures from thenct, amount to i 50,., J 5 and 60 per' cent* , on ?he> sterling cosr of blankets, common*. velvets and corduroys, cotton drilling girth Mr ebbing, and other goods of constant and general consumption.
