Excerpt from Cotton, Its Progress From the Field to the Needle: Being a Brief Sketch of the Culture of the Plant, Its Picking, Cleaning, Packing, Shipment, and Manufacture Among the utilitarian gifts of nature and art we know of none in more general use, or of greater practical value, than sewing-cotton. The taste which turns mto graceful shapes the products of the loom, the executive skill which converts them into convenient and elegant apparel, would be powerless without this simple accessory. It is the food of the needle, and might almost be called the thread of life to thousands of the gentler sex. Yet as it passes through the delicate fingers of mothers, wives, and daughters, ministering to so many wants, and creating so many beautiful superfiuities, little thought is bestowed upon the labor, the care, the dexterity, and the scientific ability required in producing the article. The cultivation of the raw material, the pro cesses of picking, ginning, packing, shipping, combing, Spinning, and twisting, are among the most interesting operations in the whole fange of agriculture and manufactures; and we think the ladies, for whose especial convenience such a vast amount of industry, skill, and talent is em ployed, will not be unwilling to trace with us in a familiar way the progress of this great domes tic staple from the field to the needle.
