Iluntin;
1872-1873.
Review of the Past and Glance at the
Future.
The annual reports from the heads of
Departments, recently made to Congress,
for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1872,
indicate a mast extraordinary development
of manufacturing industries, agriculture
and internal trade.
In the South there has been a marked
recuperation from the effects of the late
w:ir. The wide waste caused by that pro
tracted strife, has been repaired. The
railroads have been rebuilt, and new lines
constructed; and the transportation facili
ties of that section of the country are bet
ter now than ever before. The cotton crop
of la-t year was equalled only once before
in the history of the country, while that
of the present year, according to the latest
reports received at the Agricultural De
partment, is ten per mut, larger, and in
the same proportion of better quality, than
that even of last year. In other staple
products the increase has more than kept
pace with that of cotton. It may fairly
be claimed that the South has fully resu
med its former importance in the home
and foreign markets.
In the West the last and the present are
Marked as years of general prosperity, and
the surplus products of that vast region
have augmented the exports of agricultural
products far beyond the maximum of any
former period.
From California also, and the other Pa
cific States, the yield of wheat is so great
that it is almost impossible to procure the
hundreds of vessels necessary to transport
the surplus to home and foreign markets.
The manufacture of wine has also become
an extensive branch of industry, and pro
mises soon to rival in quality and exceed
in quantity that of France. The cultiva
tion of tea has been quite largely introdu
ced and is found to promise important re
sults, as is also the cultivation of the silk
worm and manufacture of silk.
In the Eastern States general prosperity
is reported of almost every branch of in
dustry. The manufactories foryears past ;
in fact sines the close of the war, have
been barely able to keep up with the de
mand for goods. The trade circulars, gen
erally reliable, state that the cotton mills
will this year consume ten per cent. more
cotton than last, and this is about the av
erage annual increase during the last five
years. During the last fiscal year 400,000
spindles were added .to the capacity for
production, and all are worked to their
fullest extent. The woolen manufacturers
are also increasing their facilities, and this
year they will consume about fifteen per
cent. snore raw material than in 1871.
The foreign trade of the last fiscal year
has been the largest in the history of the
country, the exports reaching in value
$523,934,720, of which over $501,00,000
were Ainerican manufactures and agricul
tural products. The imports amounted to
over $640,000,000.
The increase of tonnage has not kept
pace with that of other industries ; but
now the ship-yards are busy again, and
the indications are that this only e.se ,, ption
in the general progres will now be marked
by a rapid increase wood and iron ton
nage.
As indicating the extraordinary increase
of business and the expansion of manufac
turing industries we will note two facts:

wad of Europe." The importation of iron
has rot only ceased, but —for the first time
in the history of the United States, iron
has been shipped to Englund with advan
tage." This is the testimony of Mr. Eck
ert, of Read ng, Pa , one of the most ex
tensive manufacturers in the United States.
This development of the iron product
will materially reduce the cost of railroads.
It also points directly to a new era in iron
ship-building, to which attention is now
being directed. Already a number of
very superior iron vessels have been launch
ed.from Philadelphia and Wilmington ship
yards; and builders feel confident that they
can, very soon, not only compete with Eu
rope but undersell European builders. In
England iron-ore and coal are necessarily
increasing in cost: here they are becom- 1
ing permanently cheaper; and to-day a
ton of pig-iron is produced at two dollars
less cost in Pennsylvania than in England,l
according to the latest returns. The iron
mines of England are all old and well worn.
England now, in fact, receives most of her
iron ore from Spain, and by the time it
reaches Eng:ish furnaces, and is smelted,
the first cost of the material is advanced
fully 100 per cent., above the original cost
of the material a few years ago. Coal also,
largely used in smelting, has advanced in
price and must continue high ; while in
the United States both iron ore and coal
are inexhaustible, and only beginning to
be developed and put in the 'markets at
reduced cost.

I In woolen and cotton manufactures the
increase of production since the war is
equally great with that of iron. Mr.
Hayes, of Boston, Secretary of the "Wool
Manufacturers' Association," says in his
published reports that of Union or mixed
f.bries of wool and cotton, many of which
are known as cotton delaines, not less than
60.000,000 yards arc now annually manu
factured in the United States; and the
annual production of goods of which wool
is the exclusive or chief component, is val
ued at $175,000,000. Nut only the ordi
nary and Brussels carpeting are made in
American loomi; but within three or four
years manufacturers have succeeded in
producing the European palace carpet
known as the "Axminster carpet," costing
in Europe $3 per yard. in France they
are made by hand; here they are produced
by machinery, superior in strength and
wear to the French carpet, and in beauty
and finish so exact a copy of the original
that, side by side, it is difficult to detect
any difference. "These," says Mr. Hayes,
"we make at so low a cost that we have
compelled the manufacturer of the foreign
article to reduce his price a dollar or two
a yard, although the American Axminsters
are frequently put upon the market and
sold for the foreign article." "Our silk,"
he continues, "our lustres, our surges, and
a great variety of cotton stuffs of a class
not made iu this country at all until with
in the last five years, challenge c nnparison
with any similar articlesmade abroad; and
in the article of carpets I say, without
hesitation, that we surpass the umanufactu•
rers of any other country on the globe."
Another important point in the prosper
ity and deveropment of the Ao4ntry, is the
fact that young men of intelligence and
industry participate in the general advance.
The laboring mechanic of to-day is tho
master workman, if of steady habits, to
morrow, and anon be becomes part owner
_ _
of the estahljshment. A thousand illus-
trations in proof of this might be cited ;
bnt one or two must suffice: "The growth
of woolen factories in the Northwest;,
says an intelligent writer in Wisconsin, "in
the past ten years has been unprecedented•
Wisconsin bad fifteen in IE6O, and about
seventy in 1870, while in this group of
Western States there are now nolessthan
;ix hundred. These Thetories are owned
largely by men of limited means, who hove
worked their way from the position of cm-
mon laborers."
Take another illustration : In the city
of Pittsburg. Pa,, there are 696 furnaces;
497 spike, nail and tack machines, and 13
railway spike machines; 69 steam ham
mers, some of them weighing 16,000
pounds; 195 engines, and a score of roll
ing mills; 48 foundries, and a dozen im
mense steel works, each producing annual
ly from $500,000 to 81.500,000 worth of
steel ; 3 locomotive works, and A number
of rail factories, employing 400 men ; 75
glass work, producing glass annually to
the value of 87,000,000; 8 white lead fac
tories; sheet and bolt copper works; 58
petroleum refineries; cotton mills employ
ing 1.500 persons; woolen mills, and other
industries. The value of the total annual
product is within n fraction of 8100,000,-
. _
000. Now mark : Pearly all the propri,
elors of to-day were the working ?nen of a
few ycors ago, many of whom arc Scotch
and Irish naturalized citizens, now worth
their millions of dollars.
Again : Connecticut, Rhode Island and
Massachusetts are hives of manufacturing
industry, their Anpual products approach_
ing in value 400,000,01)0. It is stated
by statistical writers in those 6ever4l,States
that seventy-jive per cent. of the present
misers of those manufactories started a feed
years ago as practical luedtanics at peekly
wages. They are cot only AMC at the head
In iia, .d a strong desire to return to Ameri
can as soon as there is a plentiful supply. This
holds good on the continent as well as here,
and n is p?oved by the extraordinary share of
the crop that is being shipped to that quarter.
The shipments so far are 3.10;0 .0 bales to Eng
land against 345,000 last year, and 210,000
bales to the continent against 59,000 bales last
year; and we understand that there are about
twice as many ships loading for the continent
as for England at the present. This is a very
significant fact, and it proves that we shall
get a smaller share of the crop than we were
counting on."
So all apprehensions that Europe, and
• especially England, would succeed in pro
curing her cotton elsewhere than from our
Southern States are without f.undation.--
The demand for American cotton will al
ways increase, and it is a pleasant consid
eration that not more than 10 per cent. of
our cotton lands have never yet at any one
time been under cotton cultivation. The
supply can he increased, to an almost un
limited eat nt.
The demand in England for our other
surplus agricultural products is equally
great. It is stated that England, in con
sequence of the partial failure of her cere
al crops, will be compelled to purchase
two-fifths of all the breadstuffs consumed
by her population. It is estimated that
the cost of this needed supply will be
$100,000.000. Of this the United States
should properly have a fair share, but the
high rates of freight from the West to the
seaboard, in consequence of great railroad
monopolies, renders it difficult to.oompete
with Mediteranean pro , :uce. This growing
evil is now agitating the commercial com
munity, and a remedy, it is believed, will
soon be provided, even if we have to carry
our products through Canada to shipping
ports. Another and perhaps a better rem
edy is ig erecting manufactories in the
West and thus providing home markets
for our agricultural products. Our policy
of protection has done much, and is still
working wonders in this direction.
The manufacturing interests are not
without evidences of great prosperity du
ring the year 1873 and onward. In all
prominent branches orders are now ahead
of supplies and promise to continue so.—
The demand for increased tonnage has
revived that branch of industry, and Con
gress is fully impressed with the impor
tance of making further concessions to
stimulate that important industry.
Trade and commerce between the great
seaport cities and the interior is on a heal
thy basis; there are few failures and cred
it generally is unshaken. Money is abund
ant for all legitimate enterprise; and alto
gether the outlook for 1873, and onward,
is abundantly encouraging to afford all
classes of society throughout the length
and breadth of the American Upioh A

That Elitor :—Since my last letter to
y.. 0 we hare made quite a j , ,urney, and
are again ~n the sea.
Tueiday evetrine:, Nov. 19th, we took
1 the cars in Londe t for New Haven en
• route - f,r Paris. At New Haven we west
on board a steamer to cross the English
Channel to Dieppe. on the French shore
On account of rough seas ahead we • were
: detained several hours in port, and then
' starting out we had a very uncatulertable
1 night. Many persons who don't get sea
sick anywhere else have t pay tribute to
old Neptune when they get on the short
chopping waves of the Channel. Our de.
' tention at New Haven cattect us to miss
the train at Diene. and instead of reach!
. ing Paris by noon we, did m,t reach it
moil nearly midnight
We had spent so much time in Linden,
that We had to leave Paris the text even
mg for Geneva. We; h rwever, found time
to look at the Place DJ' Convorde, the
grounds of the Pari • Expesition, Column
of July—built on the site of the old r:as
tile—aud a few other places of interest.—
We con d not see that the war had made
much change in the appearance of beauti
ful Paris. It looks just like it did when
we passed through it two years ago. We
were surprised to find such a change in
Aimate. In London we suffered front cold,
rainy end foggy weather, but' in Paris the
air was sweet and balmy as May in Penn
sylvania.
At 3 w. as. we started trot of
Paris by railroad.
So far as solid, well-finished railroads
are c.rneerned, England, France and Italy
are all ahead of America, but their cars
will not compare with the m gnificent af
fairs we have on our American roads. As
Mark Twain says, the French system "has
so many grievous discrepencies.'' It' you
want a drink of water you must wait until
the train stops at a st-dion therr get off
and get it—if you can find any—at the
risk of being left behind. The cars are
divided into compartments ;- two seats run
clear across the ear, and the door is at the
side. Each compartment holds fourteen
persons—seven of these must ride back
foremost and sit looking in the faeesd the
more fortunate seven who ride face fore
most. No such thin. , as a private DIM
or water-closet is to be found on any err
in England, France or Italy. We wade
the journey from Paris to Genoa in less
than two drrys, including a night's rest in
Turin. On our way we saw touch gr.rtrd
scenery; the train dashed through valeys
surrounded by abruptsnow-covered mum:-
tains. Strange to sey. the valleys were
green as in midsummer in America. We
passed through the firrfamed Mt. Cools
Tunnel. which is more than seven and a
half miles lone,alid cost about. thirty mill*
dollars ! At Genoa we spent one night
on shore and then came on board the
'Arabia," which is to be our home to
• Bombay.
Genoa is a city of' palaces ; the floors of
the hotel in which we stopped were mate
partly of marble. Italy is not so far be
hind the age as our people over the Atlan
tic seem to think. Si ri us Victor Emanuel

Do not think of the Italians as miserable
maccaroni-eating, r'grin-grinders. Many
of them are intelligent and energetic bu
siness men. We left the city of old Co

reached Leghorn early Tuesday morning,

by one of the fittest bridge, it has ever
been my privilege to see. Uncle S.tm has
just eomp:eted it at a cost of ahem $BOO,-
000. It is so constructed that carriages,
street cars, and pedestrians etch have their
separate places below, while the iron horse
commands the upper deck with no obsta
cle to mar his peaceful progress, but the
sometimes opening.of the very extensive
draw span to allow an unobstructed navi
gation of the river. The building inter-1
est. of the city is nit on the rampage as it
has been in times past. but there appears
to be a c totinual and substantial prog ress
in that direction. tany very Ene build
ings have been erected this summer, among
which is an extensive and c ineeniently
arranged depot by the C. A. & V. R. R.
Co connection with which isa mammoth
hotel, built by Dr. Burtis. the well-kn. wit
proprietor of the add "Burtis House."
Many other very elegant and substantial
buildings have been erected, but a refer
ence to, or a description of them would not
interest your reader.
A101;14;11 I have been boasting of sub
stantial prosper ty here, yet it is true that
at tae present time it is very dull. This
I find attributed to many causes, the nr•st
pr -minent among which is that terrible
` . epizootie" of which you doubtless have
heard, if not; reports assure me your horses
and chickens have. With us it has spent
its three and is now abating very fast. I
do not think that at any time it was as
severe here as through the East, yet the
harmonious sounds that greeted me on
every street corner reminded me very for
cibly of a large family of small ,children
all in the most. extreme stage of the hoop
ing cough, (excuse the weak comparison
for the want of a better). Yet what a
god-send it was to that noble animal. How
many thousand pool brutes,. knowing their
sickness. received the constant care and
attention of their seltioh m3sters, who pre-
vious had out a care and f lashes.
Entertainments or a public character, in
the way o lectures, concerts, theatres and
minstrels arc very plenty, and those who
are so disposed can pass away their winter
eveningi as pleasantly as these kinds
entertainments will permit, but piease, sir.
don't cotsider me in on ie two. last, or
my mother might think that teaching me
was labor in vain.
I find ths city, I ant s , rry to siy. like
many others, imp , sed upon by one-horse
lecturers. Sit: uld T ever think myself ,
called to the lecture field I am sure I hive
learned some things by the failui:c of oth
ers, which will redound greatly to my
benefit.
And now wishing. you a very Merry
Christmas and a Happy New Yea I re
main, yours, etc.
