Wo have, within the last few months- seen
frequent allusion, to a new plan,'by which » |
oral coal and iron are converted at onco into
wrought iron, without passing through the more
tedious find expensive atcpß, into aDd from the
pie metal state, na now generally practised
P This new process appears to ho Raining favor
rapidly in various parts of the country, It was
first heard of. at Newark, New Jersey, then,at
i Cincinnati, then at Cleveland, next in Wisoonam,
and how in our immediate vioinity. . .
We havo seen the process, nnd witnessed the
resnlts 1 Wo have seen the mineral coal nnd the
erndeforo, after being crushed or pulverised, imd
mixed' in suitable proportions, pat into “ n
libe a bng of grain, at a country mill, and have
seen it. When E snffioienUy deoxidized, come forth
like so much meal or flour into n common pud
dlincr oven, apparently liko so much red hot
sand, and without having been melted, from
first to last Wo have seen this iron sand, by
themere adhesion nnd aggravation
cles and the spontaneous wielding of those par
?ieles under the manipulations of a practical |
muddier, grow into a compact maBB, and like a
rolling sm>w hall, increase with every tom, to
the siro of tho largest pumpkin.
Wo havo seen this iron pumpkin, or hail ot
red hot metal, brought immediately under a
forgo hammer, and in less than five minutes con
verted into a beautiful bloom. Wehaveeeenthe
same bloom pass through tho rolls, ondcome
forth as boiler iron, as sheet iron, bar iron, nai
rods &e , &e., and it tra» all very pood.
An oppTopriato furaaoo and
this process, can be erected forless than s'MOft !
and any man having an acre of
good iron oro in its vicinity, and a *h o osanddol
lara in his pocket,can, in less time than ft ™™
require to erect a saw mill or grist mill, hove a
furnace running upon his own premises, at the

I Judge Black ns a gentleman eminently and pe
culiarly adapted to this high position andi nearly
all, without distinction of party, would regret to
hear that he declined are election. The admin
istration of justice is most important of all
things to a freo people, and none bat _£.°
men should bo chosen for such posts
proved men cannot be spared from the Bench
and. if any State in the Union ever had cauße
to feel eepocial pride in her Supreme Judges,
Pennsylvania has, for a more brilliant array of
profound legal talent, (as well ns high social vir- ]
we, and unspotted moral integrity.) woie never
concentrated in any five men, than is to be found
in the persons of Blaok, Lowrio, Lewis, Wood
ward and Knox. Such a Court is an honor to
tho Judiciary throughout the world, and the peo
pie will not readily dispense with theserv.cesof
any of theso distinguished Jurists if they cun
help it. lienee, we look upon the re-nomination
of Judge Black as certain, and bis acceptance as
a matter of course. * , . , # T «,*_

The imports of tho fiscal year 1853, including

This will leave the revennolarger taa
proper and eoopomical admistration of the gov

The change now proposed in tho rate of dnty is

stability to tho iron business, and more satisfac

equally beneficial to the revenue. .
It is proposed to make salt free of doty. The
