In the: Intelligencer and Democrat of

a sentence, purporting to be an extract of
'a letter, (private) dated at Pottsville,. Feb

"That lOud . and deep are the curses of
all purtieit against the conduct of our re
presentative's, Frailey and Krebs, and, that
both are 'believed to be interested ia the

• Whilst on this -subject, we beg !mime
further to say, that during the last contest

tho Journal of the nate of last year, was
carried through three toweships in the

one of the subscribers, then a candidate

IRON AND ANTHRACITE COAL.
By an eirtract from the proceedings of the
British Aesociatine, &c. (given in Billyman'a
Journal,) we find that Mr. Crane has filly sod ;
needed in making iron from the ore; by use of
anthracite cu.!. at hie works in Wales.
The first cost of the • tiectissary buildings. ie
very small; cupolas being substituted for the old
fa.hioned stacks. No-time is required to proper
the stock 'before blasting, the anthracite bein
prepared by nature for the purpose. The iron
is better—the ore yields more, and ono-third onl
of the Usual fuel is required.
Mr. Crane applied for a patent bum our Gov. '
ernrnent, but to sponged by the Reit. Mr. Geiseni
helmet, of New 'York, who claims the discovery ,
Mr. Komi, a well known chemist of this cityi
is said to have also succeeded in reducing iron
ore with anthracite, and is perhaps also an opi
ponent.
Considering the snbject of extraordinary in)+
parlance to oar state and to this city in partic
ular, as well as to our 'coal district...l am in
doced to ask from some of your readers w.
may be informed on the subject to favor es wt
some partienlare respecting the application
the discovery to our ore, coal and iron. Hay;
we isms sufficiently near the coal mines? Ai

anthracite, &c f And would legislative aid be
necessary or essential to its success Iti If•sc
should we not rise to a man and move in a matt
ter so very important? CAR/10164RM. I
In reply to the above we would state
that Dr. Eckert, of Pine Grove, is now ma
king preparations to make the experitrien
of smelting iron with anthracite coal; an •

pears that though the quantity sold in 183
was greater than in 1636 by 54.629 load
yet the total cost was $65,876 80 c.en I
less.
The qua..tity, of Charcoal sold in 18

~Mr. TIP took the floor at one,
dcloek, on the SDB-TREASURY BILL.
Mr., , T. Spoke briefly,and to the purpose.
He felt bound' to go fur the substitute to
ibis Bill of Mr. Wright. He thought Mr.
Rives's Bill in all respects preferable to
the Sub-Treasury Bill. He believed that
ati immense majority of the people Were
opposed to the Sub-Tr'ensury Bill, and
kpew Cott the interests o 4 his own State—
d:le State of Indiana—and the interest of
t; whole Country required this oppOsition.
u promised `this country a "better cur
rlacy," said Mr. T. and you have given
ia worse currency than' it had before.—
promised us a hard money currency,
aei I ask where it is . You pledegd us '.a
bitter crethi than Bank credit, and a bet
tqr_circulation of solvent Banks, and I ask
yfu where that circulation is. Yon have
promised us bread, and you have given us
a 'stone.
',I cannot, continued Mr. Tipton, under
stand the part that honorable Senators
base taken in this question. It is inconsis
ten dangerous, ruinous., I am, said' Mr.
Ti tun , for restoring the currency. I
am
opposed to experiments. Lam tired of them.
I see no good that can grow, out of this in
terminable war. I sea no excuse for and
believe that no good will 'result from it.
Mr. Tipton spoke for an., hour briefly
and to 'the purpose, opposing the Sub-
Treasury Bill with great earnestness and
determination, and venturing the declara
tion that the hill would!'find no support
with the great body of the people, however
much support it might find in. Congress.
Mr..CLAY followed and said he was
desirous to express some views , Kam the
