IRON ORE.--Seitie enterprising Iron Companies, having their headqUarters in Philadelphia, are extending theirsearch for iron ore .into dilforent parts of York county, and aro ineeting,.with good and remunera= tive success. Nearly all the Ihrms in Seven Valley, for a distance of tive or six. miles, And clean through that narrow valley along the Northern Central Railroad into Heidel berg township, have been leased for mining purposes. It is known that a vast quantity of iron is inibedded in those locations, where, ore is already taken onion a large scale. On Strickhouser's hill, where a switch has been constructed nearly a half a mile in length, connecting the ore.bank with the Hanover Sanction Railroad, the supply seems to be inexhaustible. Ore abounds in almost every plantation in this exceedingly fertile valley, but in many places it lies too deep -to render the raising of it profitable. Mr. Harry Smyser, of Mariatta; we learn, has leased numerous grounds, Where he antici pates getting ore. , GIRLS WHO .
