SLAVE LABOR IN COTTON F A C' ORIES. " The Pei.sicols Gazette describes the Arca-tia Cotton Factory, whicrh is no. in ,c't.slful ,perati.', It is wir k ed erti,:.nv by .,bive labor, row; twenty. f-;mr loon is and turns out 1000 yards of cotton per day. The protiem is hete solved of the adequacy ofslave labor to manufacturing purposes- The Gazett' remarks that the cost of the raw neter ial is the great element of expense in the manufacturing of coarse cotton goods. When cotton is worth 6 cents at Pensa cola, it is worth , cents lard down at Lowell. hiere is a dalere'nce, then, of just one fifth, or twenty cents in the dol lar. The Arcadia Factory will, when completed, work up 1000 pounds per lay Here is a clear saving of $15 per day in the raw mat-tial alone, enough probably to feed all the operatives engaged in the work." The South is growing wise. The ruinous fluctuations in the price of cotton in Europe, have opened the ey s of the planters. They have become convinced of the fully if depending wholly, upon a foreign demand for their ce-at staple. Periods in every year lind th-nem at the nercy of the tnanufactureis of England, F1 +nce and Germany. When most fires sed for funds they are least able to oh tain a fair price for their only saleable commodity. The heavy English dealers can gene tally depress the market at pleasure; and the experience of the past two years has shown tint they are perfectly willing to exercise their !power. Th. fct uations within that poiod have resulted in a direci loss to the cotton planters of more than eight millions of dollars. These fluctu ations operate, of course, most oppres sively upon that large class wh]o are corm pelled to sell, at any price. Those who are strong enough to hold on to their crops fare but a little better. There are many millions of dollars' worth of cotton now in store in the Southern pnorts, waiting for better prices. Murbi of it has been in store ever since the ingath ering of the last crop. Even tho-ugh Prices should improve a fraction b fue the next season, the loss of interest will probably swallow up advance, and more too. Theip most eflictual remedv is an in creased hoMe market. In one small port in Geer-i , there is ane millon of dollars worth of cotton w:aiting an in provement in prices. If, - iestoad of being :hrns storf and depenuding upro the- foreign demand for release, it had 1ect~u taken icito factorics six months sin;ce, it. would long ago have bro:ight into the State at least five millions of doliars! It ,suens.:asabsurd -for the Soutb' to send her cotton to Leeds or Lowell tobe be worn by the panters themselves, as itwudfor a faumer in Genesee to send iswetabroad to be floured. ..England has acquired her greatness and wealbh by manufacwi ing for the world. Every dollar she pay-s for rawv mete-rial is quadrupled by the home labor exp)ended upon it.-The Georgia plante'r makes his two or thrtee pe cent. upon his cotton, and the English man-eficturei his ten and twenty pier cent upon the coimmidities which lie produces firtm it! The duty andl policy- of the Souith upou1 this subject is as clear as sunlight. The cotton fi,.ids are overstucked. The1 supply oef this ;;reat staiple has increased ma'se rapi ily than ithe demand for it. If one tenth of the labom ers emp1loy-ed it, the cottotn fields we-re transferred to cot ton factorics, the richest results woeuld follow. Events are now trainspirin2 which will parobably hiav-ea t-ndency to still further compel an examiina uion of this subeject. A general war in Europe would lhave a most ruinous i-li-ci uponi the cot tn mnm het. Pr~ ices would ben iinsantaneously depiessed so low as to produce gene-ral bankruptcy a moug t he pla nte-rs of thle South. Such ae r.-volutioit may not conie, but theo very fart thamt it is possible-, sufli ciently illustrates the wisdomn of lhose' lhcalities at the South which ha;ve entered upon the policy of wora king uap a p~oriioan oC'the raw materialt u hich they proadue. If this policy shtould become genes al-as we cannot doubt that it will in time-- -the Southern States would soon place thrma selves in a pastion of independence far above that whlich they now occupy-, and whlichi theyv must cominue IC) occupy, so1 long as tihey depeind excluely tupon a foteig;n market-Albhany Eye.

A u Calybeate Springs. -Spartanburg ti Village is truly fortunate in the late dis- t? covery of two Mineral Springs. The first one at Mr. J. W.

This e l.st is similar to the former, and between Ii the two no doubt, every facility for p health to be procure.l by those means - will be afforded. The one just by our d residence, on the land of Mr. J.

The bulbs are used through. 0 out California for. washing every de scription of clothting,;in cold running water. In ubing them as soap, the women cut off the roots from the bulbs, and rub them on the clothes, and a rich n &strong lather is formed which cleanses most thoroughly. To propagate the plant, the bulbs are set in a moist tich soil, and grow most luxuriantly in the - soft bottoms of valleys or bordering run ning streams. So the world hereafter, is to grow its own Soap, just like our Yankee farmers grow Onions, and we expect to see the article sold by bunches instead of by cakes.

HIS has been the secret principle of too many of the Wholesale Dealers in Tea up to this time, and they have practised the must shameful imposnon on the country mer chant, without any fear of detection. But a new era in the trade has come, and the i'ekn 't'ea Company claims the honor of its introduction. They were the first to raise the banner of' Iteform, on which it has inscribed the simple words, PURE TEAS AT ;HlONEST PRICES." A complete revolution has been the conse queuce. Let cousumers of Tea everywhere look at what we have done. 1. We were the first to send them Teas that used to be called too good for thein before. 2. We have driven out of the market a vast atmount,of' trash, and introduced a better class of Tens than has yet ever been sold. Importers of Tea often come to us to get for their own use. and fur their fiiends, the fine qualities they can find no where else. 3. We have reduced prices more than 25 per cent. both in Black and Green Tens. The whole sale grocers say we are rnining the trade, and call us humbugs. This we have done already, and now see what we are ready to do. 1. We will sell Teas by the single chest, half chest, or 14 lbs. box, at the same price that wholesale grocers pay to the importers when they buy by the hundred packages. 2. The wholesale grocers aiways allows 13 or 14 lbs. tare to the half chest. This is a cheat! We will allow, in most instancs, 154 r 16 lbs tare on the same. 3. We hereby undertake to sell every kind of Tea frot si: to twelve cents per pound chea per than the wholesale grocers do. * low can you do tbis?" asks the country mtrchltant. This is our answer. We are cor.. test with 7 per cent. profit, instead of 25 and 50 per cent. a le wholesale grocers. As, Englis Importer litely boasted to us that he could make tee'ce money by sending bad Seas to the New York market than good Teas' We are resolved to overthrow this fraud, and now call upon agents in every town in the United States to come forward and buy the Teas imported by the Pekin Tea Gompany; and we pledge ourselves that if in six months they do not sell more Ten than the oldest and largest dealers in the town, we will give them our Te.a without charge. This is plin Eng lish. aid cannot be misunderstood. We ap peal for testimony to the immense success of our Agetiis in every part of the United States. Agents wanted in every part of the United States, for the sale of those Tecs by which they can n..ke money, and confer a benefit on the public by supplying the pure article. CATALOGUE oF ' TEAS.
