In a recent article we expressd the opinion that "cotton iaiulfac turing in New H:ilpshir-o has proba bly seen its best days." Tie para graph has been copied into several papers, and the Nashua TelegrapA, without oxactly dissenting, precseuts the other side of the picture, and thinks the State is steadily develop., ing manufactures in other directions. We proposo to state the conclusions we havo reachod as to tho futuro of manufacturing in this State, and the reasons therefor--conelusions not of recent origin, but strengthened by recent ovents and observations. Take cotton mauifacturos. We do not suppose that the large, sub stantial mills already erected atO going to stop or diminish their pro ductions. Possibly a corporation already existing nty occasionally find it to its advantage to extend its business. Possibly local capital, as a result of local pride, nmy now and then build a now mill. But it will be like rowing a boat up strein against a curi ent, and dividends Will be snmller. Large capitalists hav, ing mcyltw tj met where it will tlo tho nis gto oo1," are nqt goin to put it into cotton manuifactm'inr in New Hampshiro-cortainly not in any part of the Stato far removed from the tide water. The coarser cot tons will bo nanufactured in the South. Why ? 1. Bec;usu the cotton is there. Now what is saved by nanufacturing it on the spot ? Thrte very impor tant itelis are em1braced in this cal culation, viz : the cost of freight ; the cost o. pressing ; alnd the damage rrd loss in transita, the latter nounting to one-twontioth of all the cotton sent North. These aro very considerablo itoms. 2. The water powor in the South is just ats goodi us ours. Georgia alone has a mountain region ao1)unding in rapidly desconding szsO lu tl to too whole area of M.ine, where the oporatives in cot ton mills louik from their windows dircctly upon broad fields of cotton. 3. The cimato. Those streams, by reason of the mild wintors, are never troubled with ico. No care has to ho taken to protect wheels or buildings fron frost. A much cheaper fonn lation and a nueh cetiper b)lailin-.~z n.$mr- for m O. gi i pine, pamy . 81 a hi it 1in dfS i~ l. uns' c un i' 'li.i Theiy have no usoe for coil a , u.ur for weathIor-b)oards, thei hi 1pboatrds inv'ariably being nailed to the stud ding. Tihey' require not mo)re than one--fourth as much fuel and half as mluch clothing. 4. Not only thme cotton but the wood, t.he coal and iron airo there. 5. The laboring popuIlation of the South havoe not yet conltrac'tedl the expensive habits of Nowv England, but live more as our fathers did. They know nothing about carpets, stuffeod fim nituyo and other expousive articles which adorn the home of Nowv Engluand mechanics. Their dross is of the lainest, kind. Tlhey know nothing of heefsteak, pies, cakes, spices, tea, coiTree or buttor, and hence are not dysipop)ticH. Even whIeat bread is almost unknown They live principally on sweet po. tatoes, p)ork, fish, corn broaid, homui ny, rice ond nmolassuts. Content with these they can afford to work cheap. Ja it any wonder that cot ton mills are spi-inging up all qvor that contry ? The onl! hindrances of which~ we can conceive arc the wvant of good, settled government and the reluc... tance of the few neessary skilled workmen from the North to settle in a society so different from that to which they have been accustomed. But these obstacles are being grad.. nally removed. We do not see how the force of these facts can be set aside, and the conclusion to US seems irro4istI ble. It has always been admiitted that the S*hba4.B ha.tat cE4th country. Slavery alone has boon 14eld responsible for its less rapid devolopinont. In the discussions on the slavery-issue it used frequen t. ly to 1o .aid that if slavery were abolishe'd the South would do its OWn1 111nufactutriing, and w', at leat, itlittod itt again and aguein. One s)1 Ourcof New En)ghmd( i11'sp~o' i ty is cut ofl, anid il e-i bim >. us wise to fzco tho tru, 1:, -od soa;jiiably eon sier w(;hitLir w. are to turn for com)el1nmationi. For a long time the finor fabric, nid the machinery to m.k the, will doubtless continue to h-4ve their lome in Now England. It is for us, as th1e manufacture of the coarser cloths beomes unprofit qblo by reason of Southern competi tion, to introduco the maninfacture of finer goods, and a great variety of articloi iow imported from Eng land, France, Belgium, Germany and Switzerland. The worst of it is that thoro is in Now Hampshiro no raw ma torial of any kind for extensive manufacturos. It must be up hill business in more senses than one to freight such material to Northern and Westorn Now Hampshire, and then freight the goods back. Any freight tariff not ruinous to railroadi is a prohibition on such manufae tures in this part of the State. Of course Nusiuta, Manchestor and Dover have an inmaenso advantage over the rest of us in this respect. If we had choap fuel, that might offset this disadvantage. I t by far the cheapest ful wO can now get is coal freighted from Ponnsyl vanlia. You cannot manufacturq anywhere without chap fuel, and this cold climato requires i good deal of it. If wo are to manufac-,: ture t-t all, it must bo.those artIlee which require little freighting, and little fuel. A businestj ms been lAtly introduced into Lebanon which well illustrates this point-, the manufacture of watch keys which is being carried on success fully, and will employ about thirty hands the * coming winter, You nay do son)ething with the shoe business in Southeastern Now Haampshiro, but north of Concor4 no one sooms to dare to atteuipt it. Freights and express eat up .ill the profits. More wool ought to raised in the Stato--vory much more-and overy pound of it made into cloth at homo. But we should need the product of ton States like this to do. an extensive business in the mant.p facture of woolens. On what, then must New Hamp shire, outside of Brockingha.in, Stril ford and the eastern part of Hills, boro countios, mainly depend in the future for prosperity 7 Upon sum ner boarding, as we think. She han the grandest scenery, and, during. five months in the year, the best climate on the continent. With the present method of doing business in the citivs, it is becoming more and more bn aIbsolute necessity for busi n#41s nAl to SPOp)d iomelo part of the Pm11li ':1c1.tojk in the colntry, n to on their faimiilies hither f-- arj lon. - ; p i.1. i2oyc c n af.. .. nop-: .n' I.' boardIfL'( which * . : . -- *a ..f E m . ,!O if a a.h a ;'' i. a vo)u9.

Mlen wiho go into the boarding busi - ness systemnatically, and mango it p)rudlen)tly, canI, in our judgment, make moro1( mhoney in live months thman can be mnadl .by a.ny other busginess in Now H~ un'pcellira. But they nmst have Ilnd, auyl raise their own .table suplie~ umly, and not r,ce them daily b)y express from Boston. That wijll never do. There can and ought to be something fresh and luscious from the garden on the L:able every (1 ty from the first of Jumno through tl)iJ season. .ITwQ acres of land thus cultivated, with your markot at your own dinner table, will af'ord a b)etter profit than amy twen ty-five acres devoted to or dinary farming. New Hampshire has thme advantage over every other Stato in this particular. If we are wise we shall reognize ou~r grand mountain anid lake scenery and in vigorating .gummner air as lhe chief Dst of our resourgos, and uplige them precisely as Popsylyanis utilizes her .iron and coal, and Georgia her cot,ton, iron and timben. So doing, we way continue to tur aut statesmen, patriots, artisans an4 teachers, as heretofore. the forernosf in the land. We shalhl be disap pointed if tihe nox4 decade does not it least quadruple the amount of summer boarding and travel in New Hampishire. Meantime, if anybodyv aan derive any comfort. from tlg belief that New Hampshire is to 1e "a great anufact,ts St /" p
