A single-page patriotic poem from the Continental Monthly, August 1862, written during the American Civil War. It celebrates the supposed end of 'King Cotton' and the rise of Corn (grain) as the dominant crop of the Union, with verses on the North, the South, the Mississippi valley and England. It is not about textiles or weaving but is relevant to the cultural and political history of cotton.

A short poem titled "Hemming Cotton," printed on one page of the Continental Monthly in March 1862. It is a Civil War-era piece that uses sewing imagery (needles, hemming, shirts) as a metaphor for the Union blockade and encirclement of the Southern cotton states. It contains no technical textile instruction.
