' At a mcctinrr of the friends of the culture and man ufacture of silk, held at Mm rooin of tlio Board of Trade, agreeably to public notice, on Tuesday evening, the 27tlt day of December, Nicholus Biddlc, Esq. was called to the Clmir, and T. P. Hoops appointed Secretary. The meeting being thus organized, wns addressed by Richard Peters, Lsq. who, after stating its objects, &c. read the Report, which will bo found below, and which was unanimously adopted. Mr. Kenipton then read articles of association, which were also ngroed to. It was tlmn. on motion of Mr. Shnrplcss, resolved that a committee of live bo appointed lo receive subscriptions for the stock of a company, according to the terms set forth in the articles of association. Whereupon the followiiis persons were appointed to compose said committoe, namely: Richard Peters, Caleb Cope, S. C. Cleveland, Jloscs Kenipton and S. i Iliolcr. The following preamble and resolution wero then offered and adoutcd. Whereas it may ho advantageous to the company about to be established lo enter into negotiations for the purchase of tho machinery and establishment of Messrs. Unton nnd Jackson, before tho company shall be incorporated, Jtcmhed, thnt if one thousand shares of the stock shnll be subscribed, the Commissioners authorized to receive subscriptions tor tho stock may enter into an arrangement for the said machinery and establishment and advance such tunus as they mav find requisite, belorc tho charter ot tlic company shal ho obtained, tho contracts and arrangements made by the said Commissioners lo be binding on the company when it shall bo incorporated. REPORT. Tho committoo appointed at a meeting of the friends of tho culture and manufacture of silk, held on the 15th dny of November, 111116, to take into consideration the proposition to establish a company for the manufactitro of silk, ill or near the city of Philadelphia, and for tho promotion of the culturo of silk; lo be incorporated under tho authority of tho acts of Asscmoiy, lor tne promotion 01 1110 culture 01 sua, report The committee have as extensively as tho timo and opportunities havo permitted, examined tho subjects confided to them. Thnt it would be a great national benefit, if silk should become an article of general production in tho United States, and that if it can be profitably manufactured in our country, it will givo employment to a great number of persons, are truths universally admitted, Tho culture of silk, by raising the mulberry tree, nnd feeding the worm, which pro. duco that benutiful article of luxury and comfort, will not seriously intorlcre with the general business of the agriculturist; or require sucn a portion 01 tno tarm labor as will to nny material extent, diminish its usual productions. Tho mulberry tree flourishes best in cultivated fields; and one ol the most approved meth ods ot obtaining the leaven lor the loou ot tlio silk worm, is from mulberry hedges, which may bo made, and securely used for tho division of a farm into fields, instead of the usunl fencos, much more costly, and al-wavK exposed to injury and decay, The periods of the year in which the silk worm is leu, and when only the attention ot tlio larmcr anil his family is required ior their care and mnnngcincnt, nro those in which the usual labors of a farm are, for a great portion ofthoso periods, not very great; and a large amount of the attention and industry which are required by the silK worm when tucuing, and making tho cocoon, aro most properly furnished by fomalcs and by children from 12 to 1G years of age. In the winter season, the fnmily lire side of tho farm er, now comparatively without employment, may be engaged in reeling the silk from tho cocoons; a most Jigrcenblo and profitable occupation for that part of the year. The committee have indulged in these remarks from tho gratification, it is believed, they will afford to sec introduced into the middle and northern Mntes a jtrticln of profitable production and manufacture which they do not hesitate to lay will at no distant poriod, rival tho abundant products of cotton and rice fields of tho South, and which will call into action and advantage, a large amount of frco labor. In the moral infiuonce of these results nil will rejoice. The couth will be pleased to receive in exchange lor he rich and nccccssnry productions, the useful and orna mental silk fabricka of her associated sisters, and the prosperity of tho whole Union will become equal. Ihe best security and the firmest bond tor the proscr vation ot that Union, vital to the cxistenco ol the na tion, are general and equal prosperity. The committee submit a brief outline of the pros pects and advantages wlucli will result Irom the estab lishment ot a silk mauiilactorv. As to tho prospects of obtaining silk for manufac ture. Within tho Inst two or thrco rears tho plamin and raising of mulberry trees, and the production o cocoons, havo become objects of much interest in almost every Stafo in tho Union. In Pennsylvania there aro now hundreds of acres plnntcd with mul borry trees, from which cocoons will be obtained in the coming year, iheso plantations will be increased, when it shall bo known that a certain mnrket ex ists for the cocoons, and for reeled silk at a fair price, Small lots of cocoons nro offered dailv, and tho com mittee entertain the belief that in I III) 7 one-fourth of the supply for a manufactory of moderate extent, can be obtained from American cocoons. In thrco or four years, a manufactory with machinery and buildings, requiring n capital of $100,000, may be supplied with American silk. The favorable situation o( Philadelphia, communicnting, by her internal improvements, with vast fertile regions of the West nnd fctautli-wcst, increnses the confidence of the committee in these anticipations, Tho climate of Pennsylvania, and of much of the countries to tho West and South .of our State, are as well adapted to tho culturo of silk, as nny in the world. The quality of silk obtained from cocoons of Ameri can production, is equal to that ot Italy, and the aliun-danco and low nrico of lands, assuro us that its produc tion will cost no more than in Enropo; and the committee believe it will cost much leas. At present a large profit is obtained by the production of silk at $4 per pound. Hereafter it may become more profitable to purchase tho cocoons, or the reeled silk thus prepared in tho family of the f irmer, than to purchase cocoons at 25 cants per pound as they now sell. Three hundred and ten gootf cocoons inako ono pound, ana eight pounds ol cocoons will give ono pound ol reeled silk. At that rate the reeling being dono at the manufactory tho cost of tho silk will bo about $3 per pound. When cocoons are produced in abundant c, the committee aro disnosod lo believe that at twelve cents per pounu, tno raising ui incm will do as prout-able as growing cotton nt liftoen cents per pound. For two or three years aftor the establishment of a ailk manufactory, it must be in part supplied by foreign raw silk. This can alwaya be readily obtained. Large quantities of raw silk are imported into the United States, principally intended lo bo exported to Mexico, where It is manufactured. Any portion of this can bo arrested on its way, and used here; and the constant and rapid intercourse with England and Italy, will always secure its import, as it may bo required, in a short period of time, Tho present prices of foreign raw silk, are, Bengnl, ?A 45 to $fi 00 per pound. China, $i 50 to $ ti 00. talian, JO 60 to $7 00 per pound. The amount uf manufactured silks imported into the United Ktntos, in tho year ending on the 30th of Bcptnnibcr, ius, was $l7,4;ii,!mu. Silk is manufactured in Frntico principally by adult labor, but the introduction of maihinery in the manufacture of silk, which is in tho ratio of ninety por cent. in tit hundred, reduces the cost of manufacture from fifty to eighty por cent, England, by tho uso of nm-ehincry, has become the successful rival of France, in marly articles of silk manufacture. Let tho ingenuity of America be applied to silk machinery, as it has been to tlio machinery for making cotton and woolon (roods, and its success will be tho snmo. Tho higher cost ot adult labor in the United niates, will thus be rendered comparatively unimportant. Tho cost of a manufactory, and tho amount of cap ital necessary to conduct it, will depend much upon the extent of tho building, the cost of the ground, and the nmountof silk proposed to bo manufactured. The expenses of machinery aru not heavy, as silk machinery is always light in its construction, and requires no great power to keep it in motion. A six horse power steam engine will move tho machinery to manufacture two hundred pounds of raw silk per week ; and a building of 30 feet in width, by 2'2o feet ill length, thrco stories mgn, will bo sulliciont tor all tlio purposes ol inuntnuc-turing, dyeing and packing that quantity of silk within its walls. It is proper rlso to observe that the expenso of machinery, will depend much on tho kind of work to be done. Many articles manufactured from silk, requiro machinery of but little cost; and the estimate is mndo with confidence, that nn establishment for the manufacture of silk into plain and ordinary articles, will cost no more thnn nbout one eighth of a cotton factory, to turn out the Bame number of dollars worth of work, and with equal if not greater profit. While it is claimed, that all articles mado from silk can be manufactured hero, it is not considered desirable at present to undertake, tho making of any but plain staple goods; Biich as floss nnd sewing silks, twist and stull's for gentlemen's wear, vestings, plain ribbons, and gray silks for printing pocket handkerchiefs.Floss and sewing silk made from Bengal Silk would cost Raw material, say $5,2.5 Dyeing, manufacturing nnd waste, 1,50 I.b.ofUoz. 1 6,25 These articles ore now worth Sewingsilk, 10 to 1 1 Floss, Utoli Made from Amcricon cocoons they would cost $5 per pound. It is estimated that grey plain silks, and white pongees, can bo made as good as imported from Canton by hand-looms of Bengal silk, to a profit nt the present prices of tho article in tlio market. When mado by power looms, nnd with American silk, they will yield a profit ol nut less than dU per cent. A 'manufactory established in or near Philadelphia, may make, when required, any articles which fashion ihaii aemnnu, anu wuicn win always pay large proms, Such articles cannot bo imported from Europe belorc the season of their dcinnnd will pass away. Blue sewings, floss silk, gray twilled and plain goods for printing hanUKcrcnieis, articles lor gcniicmeii s wear, are of permanent dcinnnd, nnd will produce from 20 to 25 percent, profit. Tlio amount of sewing Bilk used n tho united Mntes IB immense lo munuiucturc enough of this nrticlo to supply the demand, nltnost any amount of capital could be employed, with little cost of machinery. It lias been nscertnined that in the town of Hartford, Connecticut, the sales of scwingsilk amounted in one year tu $35,1100. llio Committee consider that Kju.uuu will do an abundant cnpital for the first operations of a silk manufacturing company. Prudence and experience enjoin Hint n large sum elinll not be laid out in buildings. Iheso may oc purchased and extended, ns the prospects nnd prosperity of tho company shall warrant. Machinery of oniplo sufficiency to manufacture many ar ticles properly, and the expenses ol the nianuiaeturo oi those articles, with a suiiicient BtocK ot raw suit, win be at the command of n capital not exceeding 20,000. In Philadelphia lor somo months there has existed a Bilk manufactory, conducted by Messrs. Upton and Jackson. It is in Stamper's Alley, near Second street. Tho mnchincry wns made principally by the proprietors ot the CBtuulisluncnt. 1 ho committee havo muuo in quiries into the characters und skill of these gentlemen. and their results have been entirely sntiBtactury. 1 licy aro men of excellent moral deportment, nnd appear to bo well acquainted with all the branches of lho manu factory 01 silk, and using machinery lor tno purposes of their production. It is highly interesting to visit that inamunctory, and to witness tho success oi ine operations conducted in it. Messrs. Upton and Jncksonnro desirous ot extending the manufactory of silk bevond what their presci.t capital will enable them to accomplish. They are willing to disposo of their establishment lo a company with a suiiicient capilul, and to enter tliemscivcs into the scrvico of such a company, on very liberal terms. Thcv will pass over their lease in the buildings, nnd their machinery to tho compnny nt a just vnluiuion, and become manufacturers of silk, and superintend the preparation of mnchincry for tho company, lor a fair compensation. Tho estimate they have made of thoir property is about $8,000; and nsovidencc of their confidence in the success ol a company, they will take stock to tho amount of $5,000 in pnrt payment of the amount nt which their property shnll Do valued, dv persons mutually chosen and agreed upon by them, and the company. Possessed ot the machinery ol the establishment oi Messrs. Upton and Jacks.m, nnd assisted by them in its business and operations, a company may at onco enter profitably anil extensively into lho manufacture of silk. The experienco of Upton and Jackson, and the results of their operations, which havo been carefully examined, nnd ascertained by somo of tho members of the committee, authorize theso assurances. The committee recommend the formation of a Silk Manufacturing Company, forlhwith, to be incorporated under the laws of Pennsylvania : and they have prepar ed articles of association, which they submit w ith this report.

This is a very exten sive establishment, and is located at tho Dayton Lock. lho building is a lour story tratue, 100 lect by 4U. The Company have just gone into operation. There arc injrejent operation, eight ingrained ami four Veni-tian looms. From these looms nro manufactured 100 yards of carpeting per day. Thero is also in tho second story of the building, a very extensive carding and spinning establishment. The number of hands at present in employment is about 41". Tho company, if pntrunizcd to that extent they doservo nnd uoubtiess will bo, intend increasing their machinery, so that they will be able to manufacture 500 yards of carpeting per, day. This would givo an ndditionnl employment to nbout 150 hands, men, women and children. They havo already manufactured several pieces of most splendid carpeting; pronounced by competent judges equal to nny manufactured ill the East, nnd sold in the West. Tins is the only extensive establishment of the kind in tho West, and the compnny if they are patronized by wostorn customers, hold themselves in rendi-ncssto supply tho Western market. They challenge competition with tho Eastern murket, nnd if the cur-petings that they have actually manufactured were examined by judges, it would he said (ns it has been said) that they havo tho ability to do it successfully. Indeed we nro not able now to perceive why Western merchants should transport this article from tho East. It is high time the West should patronize all its Munufuc-toiiiB.
