A single page from The World's Progress on the history of cotton manufacture. It opens with a paragraph on the invention of spinning machinery in Britain (Hargreaves' jenny, Arkwright's patents, Crompton's mule). It then gives a dated chronology from 1730 to 1836, taken from a South Carolina paper, covering machinery, the cotton trade, American mills, and cotton prices.
