The fulling and dressing depart- ' mints have at present, neither regular mi-, perintendants or workmen; consequently ; they are not prosecuted with eth ct. The' cotton spinning establishment is equal to, producing between thiee and fair hundred poinds of yarn per yveek, and is un-' der very good direction; but skilful and j steady hands are. much wantii g, which time will tarnish from our present pof.ula j tion.
