If is believed that S6 blacks, with one white steriniendant, will do the work t)f S3 white operatives; It is also believ ed t.at it would be better to purchase these -hands at one-; and that .ha mi a of the ri"ht description miht be had for g00 a head-on An aveiagt'. It is esti mated thatjthey might be decently cloth fd and pbntiiuily fed for 81000, and that 3500 i to be allowed to a white su peiiniendant. Acctrrdirtjt to our last Essay, 33 whhe . operatives receive weekly g 69 50, iir round .numbers' . $70 : which, with $500 paid to the superinteh , dent,amount-n ten years to $41,400 : The expenses of a black, establish- .

Let it also bo borne irf mind, that it is hardly fair to charge intercut on the purchase moncv, as the weekly return tif the manufactured and .saleable article pays the interest on this, as well as rj the advance made fur cloth ing, feeding, and superintendance, by its enhanced value. We must now enquire into the price paid by the Manufacturer at home and ftvlrwad- in the raw material. In this en quiry we must be guided by the priced of last Spring, as the present, ephemeral' hiti price of, cotton, would not be a sure criterion to -go by, particularly so, as the goods market has ttot yet found its level. It is therefore, by the New York price Qurrent of April last, that we shall steer out course. This gives the lowest p4ce of cotron at 1 0 to 1 1 cents per lb. and quotes brown three-quarter wide shirtings at fi a 7 cents per yard. Now these brown three-quarter wide shirtings which Sjokl in New-York in April Jast at 6. to 7a cents per yard are made of the lowest quality of cotton this country prodoces, jand wliich svld at the . same period., at 101 cents, per lb. at New York, and at 6 1-4 pence sterling, (equal to, 12 1 2 cents) at Liverpool. But, as this cotton has to be transported from either of these seaports to the respective manufactories, in which it is to be worked up, we -shall, assume that it costs the manufacturer at home 10 1-2 cents, and abroad 12 3-4 cents per lb. The same Quantity of cotton, taken from the &jn, (which involves a saving of tenper cent, by 'precluding bagging, roping arid wastage,) sold last Spring 'n. the South at 6 1-2 to 7 1-2 cen1s per lb. which,.if we lake the highest price in the South, viz : 7 1 2 cents,' 10. 1-2 cents in New Eog4and,-arvd 12 3 4 cents in Man chester, which are the lowest in. these places, we show that the Southern nianu facturer . has the advantage. -of 30 per ceut over the New England, and, of 52 per cent, over the Manchester Manufac turer, in the price of the raw material. Before we -go- any farther, Mes-srs. Edi tors, I must beg leave to premise that, .when I was lastm Manchester, no manu facturer, let hi id have ever so much capi tal at command, dreamed of making more than common interest i. e. 5 per cent, and I am quite satisfied that our domestic inanitlacturcrs.make no more. We will ijow suppose that the three sets of manufacturers make the same quality of cloth or shirting, out of the same material and we will allow them the same price for it, assuming,' in either case, that one pound of cotton produces lour yards of cloth.. The New England man sells his 400 yards at 7d . $28 00 100 pounds, cotton cost at lOi'I .

' 0 COTTON MANUFACTORIES THE SOUTH. can cotton ? Certainly not! They are made of East j I ml aj and vwaste cotton which comes much I cheaper for which reason they a-e of an inferior quality, and it is well known jtat our domestic goods are preferred abroad and at home. But 100 pounds of East India and waste otton, which,; bj will not make 4U0 yards the by, of cloth, on&ccount of the greatjer wVate, s cost, at all events, 7 cbnts, $7 50 5 per cent, expenses as above 1 40 Labour as above I 12 4 J $21 35 16 25 Southern expenses as aboye Difference - $ 5 1U So, even on this ground, we shall not only beat them in the price, but produce a much better qualttvl The. interest of the South is, at least for the present, to confine herself to the making ol low-priced articlesjbecause, principal -lv, these require the greatest quantum of the raw material. Besides, such articles as shirtings, sheetings, calicoes for print ing. &c. &c. form the'bulk of the trade, and open' a vast field for the exercise of her industry There may be some discrepancies in the above calculations", but they come near -enough" to truth to shotthe genera! result ; atid ifjthe Southern People, in stead of tufi'eriiig themselves to be gulled bv the advocates of free trade,, will turn in anufactuiers. thev will rcan a golden harvest. V. FOR THE UEGISTF.R. INTERNAL IMPROVEMENT MEETING. Asrceablv to nrevious appointment, a re spectable portion of the citizens of Chatham assembled in the Court-House inPittsboro', on Tuesday the 12th inst. immediately af ter the adjournment of the Court, for the purpose of electing Delegates to represent the Countv of Chatham m the State Con vention w fiich , is to meet in Raleigh on the 24th fust. ; .'. ; .

Carolina, and that every rational hope for an auspicious change in her commercial conditipn will be lorever extin guished, should the prevailing excitement on the subject of Internal Improvement be permitted to ex pire without producing a train of measures calculated to improve the internal condition of die State. - Resolved, That notwithstanding oujdeep con viction that more precious and extemMl benefits would result to the State from the general introduc tion of Rail Roads within her borders, than from any other improvement ; yet we conceive that it would be casting away the bounties of Providence to omit the improvement of channels of water communication. lirsolved, That die Delegates appointed to repre sent the county of Chatham in the State Convention, be instructed to submit to that Isody the propriety of improving the Navigation of the Cape-Fear and Deep Rivers, together with die connection . of their waters with those of the Yadkin, by means of a Rail Road. Jiesohed, That we are, decidedly in favor of a loan being contracted by die State for the purpose of executing such plans for her Internal Improvement, as may be recommended by the Convention and a- dopted by the Legislature. The foregoing Resolutions were advocat ed, at 1 Very considerable length, by Hugh McQueen and. Hardy L.Holmes, Esqrs. when the iollowitig Resolution was intro duced by Jonathan Haralson, Esq. and una nimously adopteil viz : Resolved, That the .Delegates appointed by this meeting to attend the Convention which is to assem ble in Raleigh, be. empowered to nil any vacancy which may occur in thciit number. Hugh McQueen, Abraham Grfteen and Thomas M. C. Piiuce were then appointed Delegates. Oll liiotion of Hugh McQueen, Esq. the thanks of the meeting were tendered to the Chairman and Secretary, for the satisfactory v i i . . manner in winch they discharged the duties or tneirrespecuve srauons.
