.Enco-urage Manufactures—What they
. , Achieve.
We de sotknow of a place moss
.for manufacturing . esMblishreents
also. Columbia and if proper induce
ments were held out pea• town might be
come of Irevy decided importance.
We have iron, manufactures in abnn
llance, but why might we not have cut
ton rectories, paper mil , L9, Stc., as well ?
Wg subjoin the following remarks on
this subject from the Philadelphia U. S,
gazoty. •
Commerce has reared some splendid
Pities in 4merica, but it should not he
forgotten that manufactures hare done
;heir full share just as well. If commerce
pan claim New York, Chicago, Or
leans and San. Francisco, manufactures
claim the lion's share of building up Bos
ton, Philadelphia, Cincinnatti, Baltimore
and Pittsburg, and the entire credit of
such towns as Lowell, Lawreuce, ),lan,
chesti.,r, N. H., Troy, Wilmington, pf. 11 .5
&c. Indeed, if the manufactures were
taken away from New York, the chief
,emporium of comuterce, the city would
be so much reduced as hardly to know
Manufuetures, therefore, do not play
the merely mendicant patt which some I
free trade votaries imagine in our politi
cal economy. They undoubtedly sup
port a much larger population thou com
merce does, and give a greater strength
to the whole community. If trade has
built its ornamental structures, have
not manufactures dope more in the same
line ? So, while ive are asked to protect
this great home interest, it points us on
every hand to its noble achievements, in
proof that the encouragement we bestow
upon it will not he thrown away.
When we advocate the devotion of
more care and attention to manufactures,
we ask our people to do that which will
enlarge villages into cities, and expand
small cities into immense metropolitan
centres of population and business. In
Mach a movement as this every class of
the community is directly interested. It
giveS the farmer a better house market
for his produce, the tradesman an in
creased demand for his goods, the real
estate owner an ampler return on his in.
vestment, the building trades a constant
employment, and, in fact,all kinds of civi
lized craftsmen the means not only of
making a good living and acenmulating a
competence, but of rearing up splen
fortunes.
Let a cotton factory or an iron foun
dry be put in full operation at a country
village, and immediately the village be
comes a town of very deckled importance.
Let it be located in any suitable part et
the city like Philadelphia, and immed• 1
lately every house in the neighborhood
acquires an increased value, on account
of the demand for dwellings by the op•
peretives. A commercial city may be
squeezed into a very limited space, as in
the case of New York 5 while a manufac-
taring city inevitably requires a great
deal of "room and verge." The opera.
tires employed in the latter lire in corn
Sortable dwellings, while the sailors, the
longshoreman,and the hangers-on of com
merce seem to ignore such 4dvawages.
Manufacture= give patronage and sup
port to our schools of design; they en.
courage the education of the masses ;
they are the soul of all the improvements
In agriculture and commerce. If we un
derstand the tendency of civilization,
manufactnros constitute its predominate
trait, and should receive the chief atten
fion of any people *Tiring to the high
est developmentom we.do .in the United
States. The policy which would induce
es to neglect this great interest and hang
. our hopes of greatness merely upon ag.
riculturo and commerce, is such as might
please the great. industrial interests of
_England, but should be regarded as op.
posed to our permanent prosperity.
The western States, we are happy to
perceive, have at length entered fully
into this policy of encouraging domestic
:industry, and the west is now not less
alashilts for protectio n . than any other
section of the country. The vast copper,
iron and lead resources of Michigan,llli
nois and Missouri have led to the estab
lishment of industial works in those re
..gions to use the ores dug from those,
mines. So, too, the enormous demand
for woolen goods during the war caused
great increase in the woolsp milli at.,the
west, as, the Kentucky tobacco _trade has,
„induced the establishment of flourishing'
tobacco factories in all the western cities.
What manufactiises have done for

138,031,628 24. The total amount of
legal tender notes in circulation is 8684,-
133,959. - The amount' of coin now in
the treasury is nearly forty-five millions
and a half, or about ten millions more
than a month ago.
Returns received at the Provost Mar
' shal General's office, War Department,
show aninereased activity in the recruit•'
lug ofthe regn!ar regiments. Regiments
which a few months ago numbered only
two and three hundred men, now number
five, six, and seven hundred. These re
cruits are nearly all mustered out volun
teers, who, having spent a short time at
home among their friends, have again
entered the military service of the United
States.
John Bright is about to embark for
this country, in the Federal frigate Colo
rado, by incitation of President Johnson,
as the guest of the United States.
Captain It. R. Winder, son of the de
ceased rebel General Winder, whose
name is among those indicted with
\Verz for inhuman treatment of impris•
oned national soldiers, was arrested at
Drumrnondtown. Virginia, on Thursday
last,and sent to Washington under guard,
to await the disposition of the military
authorities.
Robert E. Lee, late iebel General-in-
Chief, is now engaged in writing a histo
ry of the war. He is living in obscurity
with a friend, on a farm in Cumberland
county, Virginia.
In obedience to orders from the War
Department, the work of reducing the
number of staff officers on the staffs of
commanding generals is still progressing.
The Great National Celebration• •
The mammoth celebration which it
will be the good fortune of our,' city to
witness and enjoy on the 20th proximo,
already commands a note of preparation.
Private hospitality, as well as public 11C.
commodation, will be in requisition for
the occasion, as an extraordinary con
course will bo assembled to witness the
solemn rite of dedicating the Wildey
monument and participating in 'the fes-
tirities and incidental entertainments of
a great fraternal re-union. For the
first titno in four years the Southern
States will unite with the representative
lodges of the North and West, and one
of the great common leagues that for
merly bound us as a people will be re
newed. The benefit and advantages to
our city that will result from this auspi
cious assemblage can hardly be overrated.
The visit of strangers, of a class and
character so estimable, can hardly fail in
establishing r cations abroad which will
materially conduce to a social and busi-
Lass connection alike creditable awl ben
e4eial, and will open the way to that
mutual interchange between diverse
communities which should link a coin-
Men destiny and promote an universal
charity. The benign influences of Odd•
rullowahip have been sensibly recognized
throughout tier country, and the deserv
ing , oeromony which commemorates the
deeds of a public benefactor •will ,f2rut
an event and a, tribute worthy the en
lightened age with vrbiel4 we are blessed
We know that no explanation or appeal
is needed to apprize our citizens of the
importance of the occasion, and shall
await, with responsive interest, the en
grossing episode which will still further
adorn and dignify the monumental city.

SKIRT.
r IUJS invention oonsists of Duplex (or
J.. two) El ipt ic Pure lletined Steel Springs,
ingor iously braided tightly and firmly to
gether, edge to edge, making the toughest
most flexible, elastic and durable spring
ever used, They seldom bond or break,
like the single springs, and consequently

more than twice as long as any single
spring skirt thqt ever has or can be made.
The wonderful flexibility and great com
fort and pleasure to any lady wearing the
Duplex Elliptic skirt will be experienced
partieqlarly in all crowded assemblies,
operas, carriages, railroad ears, church
pews, arm chairs, for promenade and
honio dress, as the skirt can be folded
when in use to occupy a small place as
easily and convieutly us it slllt cc muslin
dres.4.
A ladyhaving enjoyed the pleasure, com
fort and great convenience of Wearing the
Duplezt Elliptic Steel Spring Skirt for a
single day will never afterwards willing
ly dispense with their use. For children,
misses and
till:
ladies they ore far so-
Pelle!' to till otheis.
The hoops are covered with 2 ply donble
twisted thread and will wear twice as long
as the single yarn coveting which is used
ou all single steel hoop skirts. Taro three
bottom rods on every skirt are also double
steel, told twice or double covered to pre
vent the covering front wearing 01.1: the
rods when dangling doi,vn stairs, stone
steps, tte., which they arc constantly sub
ject to when in use.
All are made of new and elegant Corded
Tapes, and are the best quality in every
part, giving to the wearer the most grace

questionably the lightest, most desirable,
comfortably and economical skirt ever
