Correspondence.—Below we give the
correspondence between the Trustees
and citizens and Prof. Cooke, which ex-
plains itself. While we regret the de-
clination of the Professor to furnish the
speech for publication, we think his rea-

Circumstances compel us to defer the
publication of a Bynoptical report of the
speech until next week:

Is no doubt very good; but the development of the various Industrial
interests of tbe -State, and encouragement of Home Manufacture, will do
more towards building up Texas and elevating her to that high position
which she is destined to attain, than anything else. Knowing this to be a
fact, and believing that the people of this State are beginning to feel the
importance of home production, the
Bastrop Cotton Factory
has been refitted, and being in the hands of experienced and fully com*

BASTROP COTTON MILLS.
Bastrop, June 28th, 1876.
Mr. Editor :
In company with a couple of friends, —---
your correspondent last week visited the ^viiGou. W.
Ifektrop Cotton Mills. We were cordL
ally received by the genial and .gentle-
manly saperinteadeut, who politely pi
lote.d us through the various departments
and showed us the working of the hands
and machinery. Every thing exhibited
a neatness and system perfectly income
prehensible to one of our limited mechan-
ical knowledge. The unfailing regular-
ity and order manifested throughout the
mills, mark the efficient Superintendent
as one bent on achieving success, so far
as success depends upon the efforts of
himself. But your citizens should re-
member that success in so important an
enterprise can only come through united
action. It is a duty they owe to them-'
selves, to their town and to their State
and country, to aid in building up man
ufactories everywhere throughout onr
land. Merchants should give preference
to goods of home manufacture, and their
customers should purchase such goods as
far as possible. As Bastrop has no rail-
road, it should take only the deeper in-
terest in a factory, .which is the next best
thing to a railroad, and which is oftener
better than a road. With proper en-
couragement and support, the Lone Star
Mills, in two years1, ought to add 25 per
cent, to the Valuation' cl property in your
town, and it may do even mnre.
At present the mills run only 26 looms
and 1176 spindles, with a capacity of
from 1000 to 1200 yards per day, work'-
ing 38 hands, There is ample roomjmd
power to double this, and why not doit?
That’s the question. The proprietors
stand ready to do so whenever the .peo-
ple%how a corresponding willingness to
I do their part. As a visitor, as one in no
1 Wf. v interested- in your mills, except in so
far""13 or Southern inter-*
iLLsire f° Bee 8Uoh enterprises flour-
people of Bastrop
county to rally aroanA Caeir home mat,.
Potions and bnild them. »P- -«'ro»Sh
such industries and the developnE51 0
her resources by the support of homo
manufactories aDd^all home enceipriseo,
industrial and educational, lies the only
road to southern prosperity and, ulti-
mately, to southern independence,
useless to argue the cheapness and com
parative cost of manufactories in the
South. Cost what they may, we must
have them, or remain in practical, as well
as political serfdom to Lew England.
Shall it be ? Thanks to yon, Mr. Editor,
for the use of your columns, and to Mr.
W. H. Smith, Superintendent of the
Mills, for bis kindness and courtesy in
showing us the first cotton mills we ever
saw at work. Sincerely and respectfully
vours. A Visitor.
