Jn the House, there was nothing of much conse- | ‘quence done yesterday, if we except the motion of Mr. Boyd, which pre boundary bill the special order for every day, at twelve o'clock, until it is disposed of. This is a praiseworthy movement on the part of the House, and the members, especially Mr. Boyd, are en- titled toa great deal of credit forit. Itis to be hoped that it will be followed up until that and other kindred measures shall have been disposed of. There was a movement made in regard to the tariff, but it did not succeed. Who could expect that it would? We will be very much surprized, and no doubt so will be the whole country, if the | territorial bills, now awaiting action in the House, are thrown aside for the tariff, or any other less important movement. Let the Senate bills be first set at rest, and if the members be not disposed to adjourn when they shall have been settled, they may take up the tariff, or any other subject they please, and debate ad infinitum. We are without any intelligence of the proceed- ings of the Senate, yesterday, in consequence, we suppose, of the storm having deranged the tele- graph wires. Manufactures at the South. The down east newspapers, particularly the Bos- ton Daily Advertiser, are much engaged on the subject of Southern cotton mills and manufactures. The object appears to be, in some cases, to show that the South cannot compete with the North in this business, notwithstanding some important ad- vantages which the former possesses over the Matter. They acknowledge that cotton costs the manufacturer of the South one cent per pound leas than the manufacturer of New England has to pay for it. Taking even this statement to be correct, what would be the resalt? The mills of the Massachusetts Company, at Lowell, consume six million eight hundred theusand pounds of cotton per annum. One cent per pound saved, on that quantity, would amount to sixty-eight thousand dollars; and, as these mills contain forty-five thousand seven hundred spindles, the annual sav- ‘ing to a mill of eleven thousand would be about seventeen thousand dollars, no mean item to deduct from the bill of cost for one year. The capital stock of the above company is set down at one million eight hundred thousand dollars ; and the above as- sumed difference is equal to about three and three- quasters per centum per annum on that enormous capital. But one cent per pound is not the rea difference. The entire addition to cotton, im tran- situ from the cotton field to Lowell, will average two cents per pound ; and its cost at Lowell is one tnd on belf cents higher at the latter place than is paid to the planter at the Southern shipping port. This difference will amount to one hundred and two thousand dollars on the quantity consumed per annum by the above mills, or about five and a half per centum on the entire capi This is the real advantage which the Southern manufacturer pos- sesves in the cost of cotton, and which, for a mill of eleven thousand spindles, would be about twen- ty-five thousand dollars per annum. In the second place, the cost of water power at Lowell, for forty-five thousand spindles, is two hundred and (wenty-eight thousand six hundred dol- lars, at five dollars perspindle, the present rate. The interest on this sum is thirteen thousand seven hua- dred and sixteen dollars perannum, Besides these items, those mills, according te their official pub- Mashed statistics, consume fuel, which costs, deliver- don the spot, over seventeen thousand dollars per noun. Put all these items together, and we have the aggregate of one hundred and thirty-two thou- wand dellars difference in the cost of cotton, imte- rest on the cost of water power, and the cost of fuci—or seven and a third per centum on the en- tire capital of one million eight hundred thousand dollars. Let us now turn to the other side Manufacturing sites are abundant at the South, im the midet of, and at short distances from, the eotton fields. Atall of them are large quantities of fuel, at extremely low prices: and many of them are directly at, and in close proximity to, immense deposits of the best of mineral coal. This coal can be had at the mills, at the low cost of sixty cents | per ton, and at other places the best of wood can be procured at rates equally low. Allowing, then, twenty tons of coal per day—a very large allow- ance—to drive the forty-five thousand spindles in the mills alluded to, and for all other purposes, and we have six thousand tons per annum, the cost of which, at sixty cents per ton, is three thowsand six hundred dollars. Steam engines for the pur- poe, would cost sixty thousand dollars, the Test on which sum would be thirty-six handred dollars. Engineers, firemen, and oil, would cost ten dollars per day, or three thousand dollars annum. These several items of cost of steam power, warming the mill, and the like, make up the gross amount of ten thousand eight hundred and fifty dollars per annum, to drive the forty-tive | thoueand spindles. Deduct this amount from one hundred and thirty-two thousand dellara, the Stegate of the cost of water power, fuei, and 4 ference in the cost of cotton, and you leave one hundred and twenty-one thousand eight hundred iled, making the Texas | the manufacture commenced to furnish its own capital, and to enrich the commuity beyond all former precedent; and still it continues to do so. Now that the problem has been solved, and the result has proved successful, can any one tell us why the Southern people cannot do the same? The present rapid advances in the business at the South answer the question, and demonstrate the fact, that, with the determination to eet the spindle and the loom in motion, the means ate always at com- | mand. But it is contended that there is a want of “ skill and enterprise.” To assert the ‘ want of enter- prise,” is to beg the question, which future resulis only can settle. The want of skili is an ebjection entirely without force. Many pretenders, like pediars of Yankee notions, have doubtless de- ceived, cheated, and fleeced Southern men, by constructing cotton mills for them, which, when completed, were worth about as much as so many wheelbarrows ; and many managers have treated them about the same. So have New England men, in many instances, suffered from similar im- positions. Still, skill is not scarce, and can be had in sufficient abundance to meet all demands, North and South. Does the South lack skill? She can more readily purchase it than New England could fifty years ago, and as readily and cheaply as New England can purchase it now; and as good as New England can now afford; both for the construction and management of mills. There is no difficulty on this score, as every manufacturer and mill builder, North and South, well knows. The want of proper labor, too, is made a very strong objection ; and, in connection with this, a | good deal is said about the intelligence and indus- try of the New England girls, and their habits of | neatness, contrasted with the supposed ignorance, | indolence, and slatternly habits of those of the South. The inference is, that the Southern | girls cannot come into successful competition with | the girls of New England, because they are not intelligent enough to learn to be good operatives, and have not industry and perseverance enough to fellow up the business, nor cleanly habits suffi- ciently fixed to induce them to keep themselves | and their apartments free from filth. How many New England girls have ever been seen at the North, who were industrious enough to work unless they were obliged to? How many, who were more intelligent than Southern girls with like opportunities to learn?) How many, whowere more given to habits of neatness, under similar circumstances, which are connected with the life of the poer Southern girls? The truth is, the poor girls of the South have no employment to stimu- late them to industry; and hence, lack the means to procure intelligence, and those incentives to ap- pear well, which are enjeyed in New England. Cotton mills furnish all these ; and, as experience has proved, it requires but time, with good manegement, and good discipline, to render the poor girls of the South, in all respects, equal to those in New England. It comes with an ill grace from Northern manufacturers to decry Southern girls as being unfit for cotton mill operatives for such reasons, while the New England mills swarm with Irish help, men, women and children, among the dirtiest and most ignorant portion of all that call them- selves civilized. They are constantly crowding out American operatives; and the consequence is, that Southern manufacturers may procure an abun- dance of help at the North, as good and cheap as it Isthere. The experiment has been tried, however, with Southern labor more than once, and with success. The Graniteville Mill, in South Carolina, which has been cited as an example, we do not take as a test of what may be done at the South, elther as it reepects the mill itself, its cost, its management, its quantity or quality of products, nor its expendi- tures. We have only to wait patiently fora few months, when the community may possibly discover something in the form of a cotton mill of a higher character, and altogether a fairer specimen. Whea we have seen what can be done in the South, we | shall learn the true value of the doubts suggested by Massachusetts writers. These remarks are not speculative—they are truths; and they will be proved such by actual practical résults a thousand times more satisfac- tory than all the evidences contained in the reports | of the Secretary of the Treasury, with the many | comments on the subject. Even now, coarse goods can be manufactured at the South at a cost per yard, for labor, not exceeding that paid in New England; and the advantages in difference of ex- penditure noted above, will constitute a protection that will enable the South to defy all competition. These down east writers speak very feelingly of Northern mill builders, who, to serve their own interests, as they insinuate, humbug the people of the South. It might be well for them, also, to in- form the pablic whether or not there is any selfish object to be advanced by such remarks. The Bos- ton Advertiser's correspondent is evidently one of the same breed of bantlings hatehed of late, | to warn the people of the South to beware of | the manufacturing business, lest an active competition should spring up against the manu- | by them than that of our European competitors. | Probably that writer himself may be in possession of some nominal thousaads of manufacturing stock, and is fearful that a brisk competition at the South | may curtail the fair proportions of his darling shares, and reduce them to the mere effigies of their former selves. But be this as it may, his | warnings are useless. The competition mast and will come, and that quickly. The manufacture of coarse goods will be transferred to the Southern country, and in time that of the finer descriptions will follow. The South 1s destined to become the | ceat of the cotton manufactures of the United | States, and all the efforts of New England cannot | prevent it. There has been apathy in the South on the subject in times pa ind the spirit of enter- prize has slombered. But a change has taken place—the race of improvement has commenced. ‘The people of the South are no longer to be terri- fied by the ery of wolf, so often set up and reite- | rated by their New England friends. The more loudly and frequently that ery is set up, the more will the Southern people be encouraged to proceed; for they know it is entirely deceptive, and intended only to keep them out of the field, to afford others the opportunity to reap the harvest. Such being the inevitable tendency of things at | the South, we repeat what we have often said, | that the Northern States have driven their Southern | brethren into this course of manufacturing fo, and fifty dollars per annum, as the actual ad- | themselves, and we have reason to believe that the vantage which the mille of the Massachusetts Com- pany would possess, if situated near the Southern | Cotten field, compared with their present location No one can, of course, doubt, all other things be- ing equal, that that gives to the South a tremen- dous advantage over the North. The down & writers, however, undertake to point out disadva tages to offset this, and mere too. The first of the number is a supposed deficiency of capital They suppose the entire capital of the South to be already invested in pursuits “ yielding a sure and profitable return,” and henec, concluding that the Southern people are content to reap smaller profits than those of the North, leave it to be inferred that the former have no capital to spare for other more profitable pursuits ; and that they are so wel! con- tented with smail profits, that they would not with- draw capital from those pursuits which yield them small profits, to invest ther in enterprises equally sure, and far more juerative. Whatever else these astete writers may know, they manifest a profound ignorance of Southern character. The Southerner Joves money, as the Northerner. How was it with New England, fifty years ago! She wos not overburthened with eapital. How did she enter the field of manuface turing enterprise, while its results were a problem yet to be solved’? By the withrawal of capital vom other parsuits, and applying it tp thie, and 4 likes to make large profits, as well South will be prepared to test the character of Northern politics, by applying the only a! nt ) that can reach the minds of many men— ad- | dreseed to the pocket.

Both have called their State Conventions for the nomination of candidates; both are endeavoring to heal dissensions in their ranks, and we may add that, as usual, both feel confident of success, and | jyiities shine forth. ‘The all-engrossing topic of con- will spare no exertion, intrigue, er trouble, to secure the victory. In their exertions to restore harmony in their ranks, the democrats have not, thus far, succeeded | thronged during the day with visiters, who, with those as well as it was expected they would, a few | belonging to the establishment that were kept in doors months or weeks since. They have done tolera- bly well in the city of New York, notwithstanding the efforts of a few factionists to prevent a recon- ciliation. The hunkers carried a majority of del- egates, the share falling burners being rather small The latter are not, however, much chagrined at this, according to the information which we have received. In the country, the attempt to produce harmony has not been so successful as it has been in this city, and, according to present appearances, it will he a hard matter to bring about a perfect understanding between the rival sections. The cause of the fail- ure, as far as we understand it, is the desire on the part of the barnburners to secure positions of prominence in the machinery of the perty, and the lion’s share of the spoils, iu case of the success of the party next November. These terms will not be listened to by the old hunkers, who act as if they thought it a favor to the barnburners, to consent to admit them to their counsels at all, even on any terms. As for giving them the principal offices, or a share of the spoils, they are indignant at the “‘ re- negades,” as they term the barnburners, and ra- ther than do 80, freely say they will suffer defeat. The barnburners, again, are opposed to the re-elec- tion of Mr. Dickinson to tho United States Senate, whose term of office expires next March, and want to have the vacancy filled by General Dix, the exponent of their views on slavery and the new territories. The hunkers will never concede what the barnburners demand, and the result will be, that if the barnburners do not give in and submit to what the hunkers may choose to impose upon them, and accept with gratitude such pertion of the plunder as the hunkers may wish to spare, there will be no union, and the party will go into the election, this fall, deprived of a great deal of their ¢trength. Both sections have a tolerably high opinion of their ability and numbers. If the barnburnera could carry their point in electing General Dix over Senator Dickinson, it would be naturally Jooked upon as an important victory over the hunkers, and, asa natural result, would, in their opinion, entitle them to a considerable num- ber of the offices, in case of success. But the hunkers will not abandon Senator Dickinson. This is the knottiest point of the matter, and one which, from present indications, will give the most trouble. As for there being any principle a, issue between the two factions at the present time, it is absurd to imagine that such is the case. The ‘Wilmot proviso has been voted a humbug by all parties, and the passage of the Senate bills by the House of Representatives will be a coup de grace to the whole movement, as well as to abolitionism throughout the Umon. The abolition party will again be narrowed down to their former limits, and in all probability will not poll more votes for their candidate than they did in 1844. In regard to the whig party in this State, there seems to exist a general desire to cut clear of the Seward clique, as the only rational method of pro- curing harmony in their ranks, and repudiating him and Weed, and others of the school to which those “higher law”’gentlemen belong,as well as to divest themselves of all identity with the dangerous and anarchical doctrines advocated§by Philosopher Greeley,and promulgated by that remarkable jour- nal,§the New York Tribwne. In this they exhi- bit a great deal of good sense, for the connection of thatparty with euch mee or cach doctrines, would sink them, were.they much more powerful than they are. ‘Thus stand the two parties at present. They will, no doubt, select their best and strongest men as candidates at the ensuing election, and do their utmost to secure victory, and the spoils, which are its concomitants. They will practise a great deal of intrigue and scheming, in order to accomplish their ends. We shall keep our readers informed of the progress of events, from time to time. Momcat Masta or tHe Mernorenis.—Jenny Lind says we “ are all firemens,” meaning that we are all on fire with our musical enthusiasm. We believe it is so, and from preseat appearances, it may be contended that we are becoming a very musie-loving people. At this very moment, in this metropolis, we havea most extraordinary amount of brilliant musical talent, seek- ing appreciation at the hands of the public. Never be- fore, in the history of this eity, have there been so many musical artists. First and foremost, there is Jenny Lind, with Jules Benedict and Beiletti—all of the highest eminence. Of the former, all we could say would be but the feeble echo of the world’s voice. nius and acquirem ical world of London.

Badiali, Vita, Colletti, and the rest, are the members of an associa- tion of song, long to befremembered by those who have enjoyed their delicious performances. And should not forget the brilliant orchestra, including Arditi and Bottesini, and many others of nearly equal merit Resting wpom their oars also are the many members of Max Maretsek’s company -Bertuces Mareteek, Truffi, Borghese, Patti, Amalia Patti, Forti, Novelli, Beneventano, Benedetti, and other distinguished names, besides the celebrated Pico Vielti, ome of the most eminent contralte yooalists ever known im this | country, who would prove an acquisition to any opera troupe, Then we have Boches, the celebrated com- porer and distinguished harpist, at musical enterprise, in which Madame Anna Bishop the most successful Englirh vocalist. stands conspic- | wously prominent, challenging comparison with those of the Italian school. And. in addition to all these, we find Wallace, the popular English composer, with his sister and Mademoiselle Stepel, awaiting the favora- bie hour to throw their talents into the seale of ri- vairy, besides « host of pianists, violinists and voeal- ists, from every nation distinguished for the genius of ete. ‘Thos supplied with all t! season should pot meke this city a perfect musical Mecea, bringing in the lovers of sweet sounds, like se many pilgrims, to render the metropolie « continuous festival to know the merite of all, national partialities and prejudices, we shall turn the | bait from our ears and listen closely hereafter, that to the lot of the barn- | * meet them in the ladies’ drawing-room.

THE NIGHTINGALE. ‘The excitement about Jenny Lind, which is entirely | unprecedented in this city, so far from subsiding, is on the increase, and will continue to increase to the end. Bhereisno humbug about her. Bhe isa diamond of the fiust water, and the more she is talked of, and the more she is known, the more do her brilliant versation yesterday was the Nightingale. During the day. large crowd collected around the hotel, in the hope of getting a sight of her; and the hotel was from stress of weather, completely crowded the hall and passages. ‘The ladies stopping at the Irving House requested to be introduced to her, and she appointed 12 o'clock ard, the proprietor of the hotel, condweted her thither, and introduced her to the lady of Commodore Stock- tom, who then introduced her te about 600 ladies. She shook each by the hand, and conversed with several particularly the old and children. All were delight with her gentle, warm-hearted and unaffected manner. At 2o’clock a carriage drew up at the Chambers street entrance to the hotel, and a large crowd imme- diately collected. as it was whispered she was going out to drive. Shortly after, she was conducted by Mr. Barnum to the carriag@ amidst enthusiastic cheering and M. Benedict and M. Belletti followed, and took their seats opposite. It was some time before the car- riage could get through the crowd, from the great anxiety to see the great object ef attraction, At length, having got into Broadway, it drove to the Jenny Lind Hall, the Tabernaele, Niblo’s Garden, and Barnum’s Museum—all of whieh were examined with a view to the future concerts. The party then drove to Castle Garden, which was also scrutinized, particu- larly with regard tos slight echo, which, it is said, destroys in some measure the effect of the voice, What conclusion Jenny Lind and the artists who ac- companied her arrived at in reference togthis objec- tion, we are not ins position to state. Suffice it to say, that no place§is fixed upen as yet, though it is determined to commence the concerts on Wednesday or Thursday of next week. We may as well mention here, that the general price of the tickets will be three dollars, but that the choice seats will be auctioned and will probably bring ten dollars. Certain it is, that Mr. Barnum has been offered one thousand dollars by one gentleman for one hundred tickets, and the same price for one hundred more by another gentleman. It is the wish of J Lind that the tickets be made low; and Mr. Barnum has expressed his determination that they shall be on such a scale that every person will have the opportunity of hearing her betore she leaves New York. Everywhere the carriage stopped, a crowd collected, and when the carriage returned to the Irving House, there was # crowd there, notwithstanding the rain, who loudly cheered her as she passed into the hotel. In the evening she was visited by Mrs. Barnum and her daughter, who had come from Conneeticut to see her at the request of Jenny Lind, Mr. Barnum having telegraphed home to that effect. All sorts of presents were sent yesterday to her, and Mr. Beebe had the measure of her head taken for a riding hat. Tickets were sent to her from Newport, for the fancy ball there, which she could not accept 4m consistency with the fulfilment of her engage- ment. It is now very doubtful whether she will be able to visit Mr. Howland, at Fishkill, on the Hudson river, as she had intended. 8o much for Jenny Lind’s second day in New York. We are sorry the heavy rain interfered with the enjoy- ment ef her drive, but she must not take yesterday as a specimen of our glorious autumn. The elegant manner h her suite of rooms have been fitted up forher by Mr. Howard, reflects great credit upon his taste. The furniture, which was expressly procured for her, is of the most superb de- scription, and must have cost at least $6,000; the chairs and sofas are of the finest carved rosewood, and covered with the richest damask satin, and everything else is in keeping. Jenny Lind bas with here middle aged cousin, named Md’lle Ahmasen, who, with Mr. Benedict, take careof her affairs, Indeed, Mr. Benedict has been, through life, to her as a father was the first to predict her success, and he has ever sinee contributed all in his power to fulfil the prediction. ‘The prize compositions for the Jenny Lind welcome amount to the vast number of about 600. The com- mittee met last night, but it will take them a week to get through such a batch of rhyme. EXTENSION OF THE NEW YORK AND ERIE RAILROAD TO MORNELLSVILLE. Yesterday, the section of the Erie Railroad, extend- ing about 42 miles, from Corning, Steuben county, to Hornellsville, in the same county, was opened, leaving 125 miles of the line to Lake Erie to be completed—the latter having been, for some time, under contract, and | isexpected to be finished next year. That part of Steuben county through which the section just opened passes, is an agricultural and lumber region, where the population is not very dense; and the same may be said of Allegany and Cattaraugus counties, through hich the road is to be continued to Chauteuque eounty, on Lake Erie.
