As the matter now stands, the
South has only 199,772 spindles, where
the North has 5,848,477. Were the
whole crop manufactured here, it
would pay to the laborers, chiefly wo-
men and children, $86,000,000. It
would pay this sum to the class that
are ordinarily non-producers. Spin-
ning is comparatively simple, and
but little Northern capital is invest-
ed in this primary operation. It is
in the complicated labor of weaving,
dyeing, etc., that the heavy demand
for capital begins. Were these opera-
