MANUFACTURES IN THE SOUTH.
Tie capacity of the Southern states for manufac-
turing their great staple is no longer IA matter OF
speculation. Practical experiment has demonstrated,
not only their capacity TO manufacture, but to man
ufacture their own staple at cheaper rate than IN
any part of the Union Last February. year,
accompanied most intelligent Tennessee planter
from Ptisburg to Nashville, Mr.. Nightingale, Tor
merly of Rhode Island. He was then taking with
him .foreman', from Providence, Rhode island, to
superntend his cotton factory. This factory IS To-
Gated in Maury county, Tennessee. The machine
ry is propelled by never failing. and never fseez,
ing water power. The entire abour is performed
BY slaves. Mr. Nightingale now supplies a large
portion OF Tennessee and North Alabama with coarse
cotton goods. His profits upon his capital are said
to be quadrupe the profits Of the cotton grower.
