South Carolina will this year rank second among the states of the union in the production of cotton cloth. This statement may startle those who have not kept in touch with the manufacturing progress of the state, but if the number of looms be an index to the turnout of cloth?as, on the average, it must be?we have high New England authority for the claim.

From them we make up the following tables showing the changes in the number of cotton looms which have occurred in twoyears in the ten leading textile manufacturing states : IWi. Looma. IianU. Massachusetts 185,800 I abode Island.., 41,>00 'J New Hampshire 35.098 3 South Carolina 31,0.1'.' 4 Maine SI,189 5 Pennsylvania 31.80S 0 Connecticut 80.752 7 North Carolina 20,720 8 Georgia ir.BW) New York 15,420 10 1838.

" <??> r\!ooi?l:i 18.5'> I ? | S'i'w York . i.">,i;t 10 ! It will be seen that in two years ' South Carolina has risen from I fourth to third place and North Carolina from eighth to sixth place ; while New Hampshire has fallen from third to fourth and Pennsylvania from sixth to eighth. Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Maine and Pennsylvania have sufTered an actual falling off in the number of their looms, l'he net loss of the seven north-1 em states in Kwo years was 6,494 looms; South Carolina's gain was, 7,201 looms ; the combined gains of North Carolina and (ieorgia were 0,009 looms, or half of South Carolina's gain. So much for the changes up to last year. j As for 1S99, a consideration of J the figures and known facts will prove that South Carolina must: take second place before the vear . ' ! is out. 1 he figures show that in ISi?S this state lackpd only 1,792 lojims of equalling Rhode Island's total. Put in Rhode Island the number is decreasing or station-, pry, while in South Carolina many | more than the number required to make up the difference are now being installed or have been n^'Tt'd. By-the close of the year this state will be in second place, never to lose it except to take first place. Applying the same facts and figures, we can foresee that#before next .January North Carolina will have dislodged Maine from fifth place and (Jeorgia taken leunsylvania's place, now eighth. In spindles South Carolina is making as great an increase as in looms, although, because of the number of separate yarn mills in Now England, she does not rank as high. The following figures for the same years show the changes in the spinning business: 1*M SplnJlue.

Contagious blood poison is absolutely beyond the skill of the doctors. They may dose a patient for years on their mercurial and potash remedies, but he will never be rid of the disease; on the other hand, his condition will grow steadily worse. S. S. S. is the only cure for this terrible affliction, because it is the only remedy which goes direct to the cause of 'the disease and forces it from the system.

The prediction may be made with confidence that the end of this year South Carolina will have passed New Hampshire, taking third place, North Carolina will have displaced Connecticut at fifth and (ieorgia will have risen to seventh place, sending Maino to eighth. The differences are all small and easily overcome at the present rate of southern progress, thfe industry in the east remainj ing, as at present, nearly station| ?ry.
