Tht City Council has appointed a Committee
to rapraaaat them lo tht matting,

Manufaoturoa in tbo South.
We copy from tht S*utA tht following concerning
manufacture* in tht South which la
suggestion of what may ba accompliahtd in
bailding up in our midat t
M Before tht war, the South, beoauae of hor
peculiar form of labor, bar genial ollmate, and
bar freo aoii, waa almoat sxoluelrely an agricultural
country. Now, hor form of Industry
ia rapidly changing; and, oonsidering her imporerished
condition, tbo development of ho*
manufacturing interests ia really surprising.
Wa bars not at command full details of the
present stats of her manufactures, but our
general information, whieh ia believed to bo accurate,
enables us to present some facts, whiob
it la be lie red, will interest the readers .of the
South. At present it is proposed to notice
only the cotton manufacturing interest* in and
near the State of Qeorgia.
44 At preeent there are in motion ahont 150,000
spindles, situated aa follows : Columbus
and vicinity, S5,000 ; Tallahassee, Ala., near
Columbus, 20,000; Reswell. Oa., 20,000 ;
Macon, 5,000; Augusta, 15,000, Oranltevllle,
8. C., 25,000; Kalmia, S. C., 10,000; these
two last mills aro within a few miles of Augusta.
Besides the mills mentioned there are
several smaller ones, making the aggregate of
150,000.
" The success of the Augusta Company has
been remarkable. Before the war the mills
were erected by a company with iusuffioient
capital, owing to which, and some trouble
about the water power, they were sold to the
present company for $140,000, on a credit, and
$60,000 were borrowed for working capital.?
Under the energetic management of Mr. Jackson,
President, and Mr. Coggin, Superintendent,
this loan was paid by the mills, and also
the notes ghen for the purchase money.?
The capital stock was fixed at $000,000, and
average dividends of 20 per cent. paid. Since
the war the company has renewed its entire
machinery, steadily paid 20 per cent, dividends,
and accumulated a surplus of about
$300,000, all from its own earnings. The
production is jeans, sheetings, drills and osan
burgs.
" Just across the river from Augusta the
Graniteville Company has 25,000 spindles,
with looms to match, and has paid from 10 to
20 per cent, since starting. Near by are the
Langley Mills, at Kalmia, chiefly owned by
W. C. Langley, Esq., ot New York, running
in oon .nixii.. /i. v.- i i i. i* Annv i
with loom* to correspond. This is a very fine
property and will receive largo development;
it baa bat recently commenced running. The
production here and at Oranlteville ic aimilar
to that of the Augutta mill.
" Columbus, Ga., aud vicinity, owing to ita
enormous water power, ia a very fine manufacturing
centre. The Eagle Milla before the
war were highly aucceaafnl, alwaya paying very
large dividends. The property was burnt by
the United States army during the war, and
has since been rebuilt and the capacity increased.
They now run abopt 20,000 spindles,
with corresponding looms, producing yarns,
sheetings, drills, o*naburg*,atripes and obecks,
rope, sewing thread, cassimeres and. tweeda,
and very beautiful cotton blanket*, similar to
the French. The capital stock is $1,250,000- dividend
the first year 20 per cent. The Tallahassee
Mill in Alabama, near Columbua, is
owned largely in England, and runs 20,000
spindles. It is a new enterprise. We are not
acquainted with the cbaraeter of its goods.?
Above Colnmbus are the Columbus Factory
and the Cherokee Factory, with about 5,000
spindles each, and a new mill is now starting
at Columbus by Mr. Clegg.
"In Macon ia a steam mill of about 5,000
spindles, making yarns, sheetings and oanaburgs.
It ia not favorably aitaated for cheap
fuel, but it haa steadily paid 10 per cent. In
Roswell, Ga., are two mills, one of 1,500 spindles,
productions chiefly on fine yarn*
for the Northern and Southern markets, and
one of 5,000 spindles, production unknown.?
Many new enterprises are projected?one in
Macon, to use steam; one on the Chattahooche,
above Atlanta; one near Covington; several
in and near Augusta, Ac., Ac. The disposition
now is, ve*y properly, to buildlarge
mills. Georgia, and, indeed, the whole 8outb,
haa remarkably fine water-power, enough to
run all the spindles in the #orld. The power
on Yellow River, near Covington, Ga., ia one
of the vary best within our knowledge; about
3,000 spindles are new running there, and
there are facilities for almost unlimited devel
VfWUVto
*' Owing to a warm climate, (o favorable for
(pinning, cheap labor atid food, raw material
at the door, 10 per cent cheaper than in New
Kagland, Ac., making a difference in faror of
the South of fully 16 per eeat., the time ie not
dSatant when eo?ton epinning in that part of
the country will become a very important
aouree of national wealth."
We hare again and again reverted to the
mannfactnring facultiei of npper Sooth Carolina,
and etpecialljr the water-power to be
fonnd in the Conntiei of Greenville Spartanburg,
Piekene, Anderaon and Oeonee. Ten
thoaeand milla if eatabliahed and operated,
would wake na great and rich and powerful,
and wore power than ie neoeaaary for thia
number are here. With greater proeperity,
will bring to our auction the development ultimately,
that nature baa fitted it for.

Tha Crops and Weather.
The work of oar farm* In consequence of the
continued mow; and rains, ia very much behind,
and will have to he pnsbed moat vigorously
in order to somewhat get np. A few are
planting corn, but w* belierethe majority are
yet preparing the ground. The laat week baa
been lair, and much progress, no doubt, baa
been made, aa no claaa of our people has more
induatry than farmera. We bare not heard
much in reference to the Wheat crop, and aup
poae it is doing well. A few lota in and near
the city look aa well as we hare noticed it at
tbia aeaaon of the year. From inquiries made,
and the loaded wagons passing into tfae country,
we think nearly erery one Is nslng guano
more or leas, in their cultivation of ootton,
and presume, from the amount to be used, if
thore are good seaaonr, the crop will exceed
any we have ever imagined. We do not hear
of much commercial manure being applied to
corn, although the ratio of increased production
ia equal to that of anything else.
On the last day of March, there was a
good deal ot heavy wind, bat sinoe then the
weather has been decidedly spring-lihe, with
the exception of a little frost in the mornings.
The fruit has not yet been disturbed, and with
no heavy frosts and freetes will escape.

From Connecticut.
We extract below from a letter to a member
of the Greeoville Bar, by one of our
citizens, well known for his strong Democratic
principles. lie is on a visit to New
Haven, and writes under date of the 25th :
" I have just returned from a Republican
mass meeting, in the Academy of Muaie. in
this city. Tha speakers wera Senator Fer?
ry, U. S. Senator from this Stat*, and Gen*
eral Hall, a Maine Yankee. There were
about tbice thousand persona present, men,
women and children. I went to hear what
these Republicans had to say for themselves
and (or their shameleee partj. The Radical
party of Connecticut and the whole North
are dreadfully frightened, for fear that the
si eptre will depart from Judah ' thie year.
And well they may. for if the Democratic
party will only use ordinary skill in the
present Presidential campaign, thair days
(Republican) are numbered. The eontest
in Connecticut is very close There, will
not be a hundred votes one way or ikeo'lter
between the two great parlies of the
country. There are four eandidatee for
Governor and Stale officers?the , Demo-.
eratie, the Radical, the Labor Reform and
the Tetnperaoes parties?all hara eandidatee
ie the Held. Tha eleetioe comes off
neat Monday. The eontest 14 very spirited
indeed. The Democrats of Gonseetlttl are
in the majority, If their etrsngth eae all be
developed."

Chairman.
Tea Beaufort Republican (an administration
paper) talks of R. K. Scott and F. J.
Moses as the most prominent candidates for
Governor. The anti.administration Republicans,
it says, are trying to form a ticket which
may receive the support of the Democrats and
Conservatives. Among the men named for
Governor on this ticket are Messrs. Corbin,
Tomlinson, Chamberlain and Orr, with a
prominent banker or business man, not a politician,
as State Treasurer. The Republican
thinks that in ease of a split and two conventions,
the Reformers will accept all the nominations
made by the regular convention, with
the exception of Governor and Treasurer.
Tna Statu and Cocmtt Tax.?As many
persons have a very vague idea of the taxes

The True Ground* of ConfldeneeWbenoe
oomes tbat firm reliance, that absolute,
undonbtiog faith in tbe eOeaey of Hoi
tetter's 6tomach Bitters as a remedy for iedi
gestioa, bilious disorders, intermittent levers
which notoriously prevail in all parts of tbi
United States 7 Tbis confidence bas beer
growing for twenty years, and it is still extending.
It is not the result of credulity; li
bas not been engendered by any human de'
vice, but is tbe spontaneous and natural con.
sequence of experience. Whet people see daily
going on under tbeir own eyes they eannol
question. When families in unhealthy die*
tricts that resort to this wholesome vegetable
tonic, as a preventive, escape periodical fe?
vers, and tbeir immediate neighbors, who neg?
lect this precaution, are prolongated by the
disease,bow is it possible that the phenomenon
should be without its lesson T In like manner
when it is seen that obstinate cases of dyspepsis,
of liver complaint, of constipation, of nervous
weakness, aud of general debility, yield
to the operation of the famous remedy, how
can even incredulity itself withhold its endorsement
T Eye-witnesses of the salutary effects
of the bitters are to be found in every
civilised settlement on this continent. The
thousands upon thousands who owe their restoration
to health and strength, or their pre*
serration from sickness, to its extraordinary
medioinal properties, are enthusiastic in its
praise. The multitudes who recommend it in
a neighborly way to their friends and acquaintances,
as well as those who make public their
estimate of its virtues, are always ready to
state their reasons for the faith that is in them.
They hare all either felt or witnessed its beneficial
operations. 48-4
Dead and Lirinf Matter.
While solid food, air and water aro passing
into the living body to supply the waste which
is the concomitant and the condition of the
production of the forces of lifo, an uninterrupted
stream, constituting that waste, is pssstng
from the body. In health, the greater portion
of the food beoomes an integral part ol
the body, and having served its time in that
capacity, finally leaver it in the form either ol
water, of carbonic acid gas, or of a crystalline
substance known as urea. These substances
are separated from the blood by the excretory
organs, of which there arc three, tba skin, the
lungs and the kidneys. Of these the skin
gives off principally water, the lungs principally
water and carbonio acid, and the kidneys
principally water and urea. The lungs not
only act as organs of direct excretion, but have
also another function. By the agency of the
lungs the blood is supplied with oxygen, which,
acting chemically upon the used, up tissue-particlcs
throughout the system, remodels them
into the new and simpler excretive forms. The
excretory processes depend closely npon lh<
supply of well digested and duly assimilated
food ; and when the health is suffering from
the insufficient action of the skin or kidneys,
this is best rectified bj improving tbe tone ol
the stomach and liver, by using Dr. Fisch'i
