The flt ann fact are of Cotton - Peculiar
Advantage of the Southern na com?
pared with the Northern State?.
During; the first day's sesBion of tho Agricul?
tural Convention at Columbia, on motion of
Governor Orr, Colonel J. B. Palmer was re?
quested to givo some information to the Con?
vention, relative to manufacturing at tho
South. ' In response, Colouol Palmer read the
following very intoreating paper, which he had
prepared on tho subject. Upon the conclusion
of which, a resolution of thanks was adopted :
Mr. President and Oentl-men of the Conven?
tion-With, I trnst, a proper appreciation of
the courtesy of the cOuventiou in affording me
an opportunity to submit the followin ; papar
tor their consideration; and with a painful
BOMBO of my inability to do justice to so impor?
tant a subject, triught, asl believe it to bo,
with BU :h vital interest to the South, but with
a recognition of the fact that it is tho duty ot
every citizen to do what ho can to advance the
prosperity of the country, 1 proceed to read
what I have hastily, and I fear very imperfect?
ly, prepared.
The advantages possessed by the South over
the North tn manufacturing cotton may bo
Btated briefly to bo:
1. An abundance of unoccupied wa' er-power
in every Southern State.
2. A mild climate.. Fire, for heating pur?
poses, is only necessary, for from one to three
months in toe year.. Resinous heart pine wood
can bo procured at Very low ratos. The pay
for euch wood delivered within oue mile of the
factory is only $1 per cord, and our total ex?
pense tor fuel for, say two an 1 one-half months
rn the year, is but one-tenth of ono cent per
?sound, when oharged to the manufactures of
hose months, while in the North it ia about
one cent per pound on the man ul ac tures of at
least five months in tho year.
3. Wages t>res and must continue to bo, com
Baratively low. The mildness of tho olimate,
ie abundance of lumber and the cheapness of
land, enables manufacturers to provide their
operatives with inexpensive but comfortable
houses and large garden plats. The country
being an agricultural one, we must Boon bo
able to produce our provisions, while the man?
ufactures; districts of the North mu it always
depend rtpsn the distant West, and, to some
extent, upon the South for theirs.
4. Operativos. Northern men, acting as au
. perint enden ts of Southern mills, admit the su?
periority of our factory hands,"who are remark?
ably frugal and industrious, and who are easily
controlled.
5. Freights are lower on yarns and cloths
than On lint ootton. There has been a time,
within, the last three years, whou a bale of cot?
ton of '450 pounds, worth say $90, paid a ft eight
from Charleston to New York or Philadelphia
of 12 60 per bale, which would be 2.77 per oent.
on value, while that cotton, made into a bate
of 400 pounds of No. 20 yarn, worth say $130,.
paid only GO conte per bale, or 41-100 per cent-,
on value-a . difference in favor of yarns of 2?
per oent.. The Southern manufacturer saves
the freight on bagging, rope and other waste.
This waste can be manufactured into paper at
the Son*h moro cheaply than at the North, and
ie, consequently, moro valuable here than
there. ; Reclamation on false packed or dam?
aged cotton ie easy and direct, and we save tho
burdensome Northern chartres for aio^??^
K,.r>?r..- .?--- '
I support these position* by the following
statement of aotual cost of manufacturing at
Balud? Cotton Milla, as shown by our books.
It must be recollected that we havo employed
in the manufacture of No. 20 yarn only 4000
spindles, ( Jonks' ring travellers.) Of course,
a greater number bf spindles, or .'he produc?
tion of j arne of a lower number, wound insure
a lesa cost per pound:

-Bat rio estimate is made of the brokerage,
to.? in Liverpool, or of the freights and char?
ges on the cotton from Liverpool to Manches?
ter. Southern yarns could be shipped to the
continent of Europe at about the same rates as
t> Liverpool, while English yarns would have
? pay freight from Manchester to the conti?
nent. .These additional charges on the cost of
English yams being considered, I think it
would be quite fair to infer from the forego
tag that we could send our yarns to Europe,
and, aolling them S3 the cost ot producing
English yarns, derive anet profit of at least
five cants per pound.
JA rapport of the figures I have given, and
tho ?mansions I ha/o drawn from them. I
mention the fact that at, no time within tho
last taree years would we have been unable to
command from our Northern '-com mis ai on
bouses (had we chests to ask for them) ad?
vance beyond the total cost of our yarns. Can

?washout :tfc "olted St*?? was per spindle
62 17 pounds; tho average number of yarn
manufactured, 2?,?i?; the total number of
spindles was about 6,048 219; of these the
Nui them States had 5.848,477, and the South?
ern States only 199,772. The average number
of yarn manufactured at tho North was 27J;
production per spindle 59.57. The averago
number ol' yarn manufactured at the South
was 12}; prod viet ion per spindle 140.37.
I lieue figure;) aro based upon tho reports
made to tho National Association of Cotton
Manufacturers and Planters, lt is probable
that many of the smaller mills in the South
were not reported. My calculation is based
upon an averago production per spindle ( ring
traveller) of 87 pounds, an average number 20.
o spin 2,590,000 bales would requiro 11,494,
258 spindles. If cap frames were usod, of
course a less number of spindles would be re?
quired. The calculation will vary, according
to tho kind of ? pinning tone and machines
used. 11,494,253 spindles would give employ?
ment to 249,951 hands-principally females,
from ton yo??-?B of age up, ?nd small boys.
The average wages or the operatives (big
and little) in our mill is $142 82 each per an?
num, which would givo as the gross amount
paid for wages per aunum, $35,798,901 8<?. And
that, too, paid for labor that would nearly all of
it not only bo otherwise unemployed iii addiug
to the wealth of the country, but bo a positivo
burthen upon i he country.
It must not bo supposed that, because these
figures show that it would roquire about twice
tho number of spindles now run in tho North
to spin up our entire cotton crop at home, that
the amount of capital required would be double
that invested in cotton manufactures in the
North, ai d therefore to bo beyond oar reach;
for but a comparatively small amount of
Northern capital is invested iu spinning. Tho
most of it is in weaving, dyeing, printing,
bleaching, fcc. Spinning is comparatively
simple, and complications commence when
weaving begins. . .
It must be evident to every business man,
that all our cotton must, sooner or!.tor, bo
manufacture-I here, at the place of its produc?
tion. If done now, by associations of planters
and other Southern people, additional
wealth is secured to ourselves and to our
children ; if deferred, Northern capital and
energy will inevitably occupy the field.
It seems to me entirely practicable that the
planters of ootton-growing districts all over
th'? South should combine together iu joint
stock assjeiations, and ereot cotton mills of
sufficient capacity to spin up their crops. No
doubt, if this suggestion wero aoted upon at
once, und all our cotton made into yarn, and
thrown upon the Northern market, the supply
would exceed tho demand, and loss, at first,
would ensue. My proposition is to ship direct
to the continent or Europe, as well as the
North. It -vould take us but little time to
orive other yarns from the market. The pro?
cess of approaching the spinning of our entire
crop would be gradual, and would keep pace
with tho gradual withdrawal of our competi?
tors.
To show the practicability of this plan, I
submit an estimate lor a cotton mill with
1080 spindles, ring travelling frames :
Number of square feet or dooring, 10,200;
amount ot No. 20 yarns manufactured for ppiu
dle, 87 pounds. Total amount of No. 20 yarns
manufactured in mill, 854.960 p unds. Cost of
first-class machinery, with all the latest im?
provements, viz: Ono largo cyb ador cotton
opener, (English;) one 8 cylinder cotton open?
er, with 1 beater, (English;) 1 double lap nai
chine, (English;) 10 selt-stripping, 36 inch
cords, with 2 B. W. heads, troughs and bolts;
2 drawing frames and cans; 1 English slubber,
60 spindles; 2 English jack roving trames, 120
spindles each; 20ring traveller spinning frames,
204 spindles each; 14 reels, traverso grinder,
slide reel, card clothing, governor, turbine
wjieel, cotton scales, bundle and bale presses,
shafting, belting, bobbins, transportation, put?
ting" no machinerv. findings to commence
with, Sec., & $., $48.000; building, including
houses for operatives, (estimated by an ex?
perienced contractor,) $7000; total,* $50 000.
Such a mill will give employment to 87 oper?
atives, and will consume 887 bales cotton,
?veierbing 150 po ands each. . Estimated net
profits on productions, if sold at cost of North?
am production, $17.748. No estimate is mado
of the cost of water-power, as that would de?
pend upon location, size and nature of stream.
Finally with groat diffidence, but with equal
earnestness, I urce upon the Convention, and
upon tho Southern people generally, careful
consideration ot the facts and figures submit?
ted; and close witb thb suggestion, that houses
