Tte? IumtMc Pro flt? Of Cotton Mills.
From thc following statement of tho ad?
vertised I rice? of stock in the several North?
ern facto. ?> named, it would appear that
tho manufacture of cotton is better than a
California gold ruiue. Tho par value of
these stocks, be it remembered, was 8100:
Pepperell Manufacturing Company, 1,105;
Pacific Milln, 2,016; Nashua Company 755;
Stark Mills, 1,275; Ohicopeo Manufacturing
Company, 275; Salisbury Manufacturing
Company, 270>?; Boot Cotton Mills, 1,080;
Laconia' Manufacturing Company, 1,200;
Amoskeng Manufacturing Compuuy 1,312}._?.
Northern men are'.beginning to use their
money South in manufacturing. Why not
baild factories ourselves in di fieront por?
tions of tho^SCate? There is many a man,
tbis very cfyry, who has suoh suma of money
by bim as ho never bad before. And there
being no uegroeajt? buy, be doesn't know
what to do with this idle surplus. Let all
such men-co-operate and establish a factory
which will bring honor and wealth and en?
terprise -to their native District. The Au?
gusta Press asks;
"Why cannot we have such mints here?
Our labor is as cheap or cheaper than it is
in New England. Our water power is un?
excelled, and we will not be compelled to
pay the freights which they pay. Isn't it
rather a comfortable reflection that $100 in
stock will bring the snug little sum of
$2,000? Are our people willing that till
these profits should remain there? If they
are not, let them neglect no occasion to en?
courage, by every means in their power, the
Northern capitalists to pitch their tonis
among us."

UNPRECEDENTED PROCEEDINGS.-The
Edgefield Advertiser states that tho trial of
Hillery Hardy and Lewis Freeman-two
negroes-for tho murder of Mrs. Elkins,
terminated on Thursday last iu a mis-trial,
the jury having been absolutely unable to
agree upon a verdict, after more than three
days patient attention to tho case, iu tho
presence of Judge Platt; and, on Friday, to
the astouishmeut aud indignation of the
whole community, the prisoners were re?
leased from jail upon their own recogni?
zance, by authority of Judgo Platt! Thc
Advertiser adds:
"Our community, unaccustomed to this
novel, speedy and iniquitous method of
general jail delivery, even where offenders
were imprisoned for minor offences, was, as
a matter of course, shocked to learn tbnt two
stalwart negro fellows, indicted, imprisoned
and arraigned for mnrder, rendered hide?
ously heinous by suspicion of rape, had
been turned loose, unwhipt of justice, upon
their simple and sole recognizance.
"We venture to say that the records of
South Carolina will not disclose a parallel
case. Indeed wo have never heard it inti?
mated before that a prisoner indicted for
murder could be released savo upon recog?
nizance with approved sureties."
A musical piodigy-an infant of three
years, mimed Willie Coffman, who played
the piano and other musical instruments
died iu Bichmond, very suddenly, a few
days ago.
In Bobton u grocer ouco had but four
weight*, with which be weighed any num?
ber of pounds, from ono to forty. They
conj?ted of one, three, niue and twenty
seven pound weights.
A farmer named Axt, residing near Craw
f?rdville, Ga., was brutally murdered a few
days ago. The murderer has not boen dis
covered.
Mr. II. H. Knee, ono of the original set?
tlers of Walhalla, died in that town lasl
week.

that the Columbia merchants are on a bot

and that "odious discrimination" is rathei
in their favor, as will be seeu by our pub
