North Carolina Manufactures.
Within a short timcpa!, two new Cotton
Factories located in this vicinity, have
gone i ito operation.
The first js the Heaver fret k Factory,
M'uated ahi.ut 6 miles fiom this town,
ovvned hv Messrs. 1 1:. II & John-'on of thi
place. The building is 50 by 1 IS feet, 3
stories higl, with an attic, is capable of
containing 4000 spindles, of which 960 are
already put up and i t operation.
The other, located on Little River, a
bout 10 miles from town, is owned by a
Company, Duncan Murchison, Esq. and
o'hets. The building is S7 by 42 feet, 2
stories high, with an attic, calculated for
2100 spindles, of which from 1000 to 1100
ate now up, and in full operation.
The Machinery of both these Mills is
from the Matteawan Works, N. Y.
There are six Cotton Factories now in
operation in this town and vicinity, viz:
lt. Mallet's Factorv, owned by Charles
P. M dlett, Esq. 1500 spindles, working
52 hand, and consuming about 8C0 b iles
of Cotton per annum

3d. The Plircnix Fantor', owned by a ;
Company, of which Col. Jame II. Hooper j
is Piesidont: 2l50pindh s and GO loom;
employing SO persons, and consuming 650

4di. The RnckfMi Factory, owned by a
Company, C. P. Malleit. Kq. President:
400 spindles and 100 looms, most of
which ae already in operation; employing
when in full operation about 150 p' tsons,
and consuming about 1250 bales of Cotton.
Capital invested $112,000.
5ih. The Heaver Creek Factory, as a
bove. Capital un sted $ 10,000. P.usons
employed at present about 50. Cotton'
consumed about 350 bales per annum. It!
is intended to fill up the Mill as rapidly as
possible.
6ih. The Little River Factory, as above.
Capital invi sted about $25 000, working
from 30 lo 40 hands, consuming about 600
b ih s per annum.
Tula I invested, $299,000; No. of spin

Th- re is abundant water power in this
place and vicinity still unemployed. It is of
lhat unfailing nature known in sindy
I'oiintne only: and is so easily command
ed tint overshot wheels of irom 16 to 18
feet diameter are generally obtained.
The power already at command at Rock
fish is capable of turning at least four such
mills as the large one now in operation
there. May we not hope at some day to
see all this power fully and profitably em
ployed? V e trust so.
P. S. If the OiBcers of the numerous
Manufacturing Es:ablishmcnts w ill furnish
us with similar information to the above,
so as lo enable us to furnish a complete
.-.latistical view, they will doubtless gratify
ihe public, as well asoblige us.

'Robinson seems now to reh nt. and has

of paying off the note and $300 on bond
and mortgage that he was prepared to
assault him on his entry, and had placed
his hatchet on the side light of the front
door, intending as he passed into seize it
and make the attack; but Mr. S. came in
the backdoor, which frustrated the plan.
They went into the basement story, and
Mr. S. entered into familiar conversation
about the house, remarked lo him that he
was going along well, and would soon be
throuiTii &c bat seemed to keep his eye
on his guilty associate, who had taken up
a mallet. Thev passed into the 1st story,
and there Robinson said lo Mr. S.
that his wife had gone out for pen and ink
and would soon return. ilr o. replied,
PI1 walk out a few minutes and return a
gain, by that time she may be in," and ad
vanced to the door! Robinson stepped be
hind him and struck the blow with the
mallet which threw offhis hat and brought
him on h:s hands and knees a second
blow brought him to the floor, lie then
went down to prepare ihe grave, and whilst

Philadelphia, April 14.
Snow Storm ThesnOA storm of Mon
day has hardly a paral. el in tLe annals ot
Philadelphia. On the 17ih of April, 1797,
a storm very like the one of Motula
occurred here, the snow at that lime lading
about two feet deep. The wea'her di
bclore yesterday was m.l.:, anu mum onne
snow nulled as it tell, vet al eveiin.r it1,
i i i r I
lay nearly a foot on the level. Shigh.s
were running about the city, and just at
evening a train of baggage railroad ears
passed up Dock to Market street, with a
snow plough in front to clear the tiack!
The snow scene was one of wintry dc-sol i
lion and ch ei Iesmss. Ihe snw, in
cons quence of the moistuie on the trees,
clung in masses to every tiny tig and
huge limb, and ihe squ ires resembled some
extended Siberian fortsl.
A New and d-eadfnl Implement of
War. The London Weekly Dipatch of
the 2Sth ult. says that "an expetinu nt was
tried a few days ago in th grounds of Mr.
Moved, in the county of Essex, a few
miles from town, in the presence cf Sir
Robert Peel, Sir Ceo. Murray. Sir Henry
Hardinire. Sir Francis Hurdett, Lord In-
gestrie, Col Curwood, Capt. Hritten, Cap-
lain Webster ami some other gentlemen,
who all appeared very much astonished at
what l hey saw. Hy ihe kindness of the
inventor our informant occupied a position
lhat enabled him to command a view of all
that took place. A boat 23 feet long and
7 broad was placed in a large sheet of wa
ter, the boat had been the day before filled
in with solid timber, four and a half fi et
in depth, ciossed in every direction, and
clamped together with eight inch j-pike
nails. This filling in was made under the
inspection of Captain Piittcn, who s'aled
the fact to the distinguished gentlemen we
have mentioned, ami also lhat the inventor
never went near the workmen employed,
that no suspicion might be entertained of
any combustible materials being lodged in
the hold of the vessel. Several of the gen
tlemen were rowed in a punt to the vessel,
and examined for themselves, so lhat
every doubt might be removed as to the
cause of destruction being external, and not
from the springing of any mine.
'When ihe different parties had taken
up their positions, on a signal from ihe in
ventor, the boat was set in motion, and
struck just abaft her starboard bow, and
instantaneously scattered into a thousand
fragments. Al the moment of collision the
water parted, and presented to the eye of
our informant the appeal ance of a hug
bowl, while upon its troubled surface f
loticed a corruscaiion precisely resembling
otked lignming. A coiuu.ii of waier

them several hundred yrr !s distance in the

many pieces, and found the huge nails
snapped like carrots; the mast looked like
a tree riven by lightning. How this
mighty eff ct was produced was of course
nut disclosed to so numerous a party, but

aware cf the mode of operation. "nd the

lIri answer to a question from Sir Hen
ry Ilardinge, the inventor stated lhat with
out a battering train he could transport on
a mule's hack the means of destroying the
strongest fot ti ess in Europe. The exis
tence of these tremendous powers is plac
ed b.yond all doubt. The instrument
!hat w roily, ht so teiri'le an iffect, lifing
into the air a boat weighing two and a half
tons, and filled in wi:h five and a half tons
of solid timber, and displacing al least four-
:een or fifteen tons of water, was only eigh
teen pounds weight. Our it fonwant has
handled it and kicked it round a room
when charged with ils deadly contents, so
portable anrl at the same time so safe is it
a point of vast importance when we re

op -ned uttered not a groan. The los to
Mr. Adams is truly severe and distressing,
