Ben Butler has been heaping coals of fire upon Brick Poraeroy's head.

MANUFACTURING. The importance which we attach to thii subject, induces us to call the attention of thi public to it again. The destitution of Yorl county, of all kinds of manufacturing esiab lishmentSr is notorious. Were we cut off frou the rest of the world, we would be placed ii a very trying situation.

What may taki place in the course of human events, no om can certainly tell. It is always well, both fo individuals and communities, to hope for tb best, but to prepare for the vorat. The man ufacturing facilities of York county are deci dedly unsurpassed iq many respects. Yorl county is bounded on the east by Catawbi river, on the west by Broad river. Both these streams are admirably adapted for man ufacturing purposes, and the county is check 1 ered by some noble creeks and rivulets.

Oi the west there is Bullock's creek, Turke1 creek, Clark's Fork, King's creek, Buffalc and many other smaller streams, all of whicl are capable of driving large machinery. Ii the eastern portion of the county we migh mention Fishing creek, with its many tribu taries, and the two Allison creeks. Ou natural advantages are great and our want Let us see if it is probable that it would profitable for capitalists to turn their attentioi to manufacturing. On all cotton goods man ufactured in the North, we pay two freightsone on the raw material and one on the man ufactured goods. It costs about trro-and-one half cents per pound to transport cotton any of the northern manufacturing cities Before this cotton is manufactured into cloth it usually passes through the hands of severa persons, all of whom have to make a livinj by handling it.

Now by manufacturing it a home, the two-and-a-half cents freight will saved, and the freight charged on all the man of them was made in York county' or an; place else in the There are a vas number of buckets used in York Ev ery body uses them. Now, what on earth i there to hinder soma enterprising mechanii from making a fortune in York viUage manufacturing blue buckete? Allhe.WQjjL^ have to do would be to put; up a shop ant make a better bucket than theYapkees. make which would require no great: effort, and $el. it at a reasonable price. York county can not furnish the same kind of timber that the fc jEgjfcfr ajSwL northern blue bucket is made of, but it can furnish uetter timber in great abundance.

It is worthy of note that South Carolina a and NorthCarolina furnish the timber for the wooden ware-shops of the North. Some one willjKty, no doubt, that if he would put up a bwket-factoiy it would take him but a short to supply the country- That no difference. If New York can blue buckets here, we could surely send'flfem to some other community. a Bofcane great advantage that would result from the establishing of manufactories in our i be in retaining the fruit of our At present it matters not we make, others get 'the greater AUK of it The northern capitalist gets rich, a I spinning our cotton, and all that we get li is a living. We bear the beat and burden of the day and the manufacturer gets the profits.

Northern cities reap more advantage from our cotton crops than we do ourselves. Our fc capital goes to build up the cities and toWns of other sections, whilst our own lie in waste, Another advantage which would be enjoyed fc by engaging in manufacturing would be that it would give profitable and permanent em- ployment to many persons that now are near- 1) idle. The population of the country would increase and the products would increase in proportion. More corn and grain of all kinds would be produced, because more would be required, and the amount of cotton would not be decreased. Under system make money and spend it abroad.

This state of things is obliged to continue so. long as we depend upon others to do our manufacturing for us. Our farmers work bard and make a 1 cotton crop, and then barter it off for shoes and stockings, pants and coats, hats and bon- nets, and everything else we need, from a horn button to a wedding suit The only ad van- tage that York county enjoyB in this respect, 1 above what it enjoyed one hundred years ago fi is, that it can buy some things now that it could not then. Many improvements have been made in machinery, but none of them hove been of any direct advantage to us. Many discove- ries have been made, but neither by us nor for us.

Whenever we desire to see a machine shop we have to leave home. Ought these things to be so Will they continue We do not think bo. Some shrewd Yankee will come down and make a fortune right under the nose of 'some of our native born citizens. That will be better than it is at present, but it surely is not the best thing that could be done. WASHINGTON ITEMS.
