A PICTUKE OF L O VO-FOCOISM.
In t 837, when hoeofacuisai first sprung up in
New York, the Albany Argus, the *ailing Van Bu.
ren paper in that State, condemned it in the ,fullow
ill strong language:
“ No portion of the Republicans of this county or

The furitace i n 30 feet high. 7i feet bosh. and 20
inch inane! beau ; mean area of the furnace four feet
seven ruches. she is now making thirty-five tons
per week. (tile iron being weighed daily.) which is
excellent yiefd for the size of the furnace and the
quantity of the blast. We were present when two
, castings were Made, one: on Saturday evening, and
one on duuday morcing•; each casting was •upwards
1 of teM and a half taps. TheblciWing cc tinders are
forty4wo inches iu diatne er, an. four feet stroke, and
are Capable with the power used of blowing into the
(tunics from 14 to 1600 feet of blast per minute.
Mr. Firmstone has clearly proved, that anthracite
iron can be thade with a much less quantity of blast
than, we have heretofore been led to suppose Deceit
awry. The blast is heated to about 500 degrees fah
renheit, by means of a small beating fuinace below,
and:one at the tunnel head. The arrangement of
the ton blast and blowing machinery are very com
plete, all working very smoothly and without tiny
jarring whatever.
Hera you will find no mystery dr secrecy whatever
respecting the waiting of the furnace or quantity of
stock used &c. &c , and any information asked re
apcctsug the making ()limn with anthmute, is cheer.
fully and promptly given by the 'furnace manager.
Mr. Firmatone ; this is right, and it chews that them
is none of that littleness of mind or narrow feeling
in hint, thatN e have often seen evinced 'by persons
trying to hit ress the public with the idea that mak
ing !inn with anthracite is a great mystery, and that
there ale dilficulues to surmount that _but few can
overcome. Mr. F. describes the working of the fur
nace as much easier and lighter than that of a coke,
and as giving very little more trouble than a char
coal furnace. Messrs. R.& W. are now puttink up
furuaces for puddling non wuh anthracite coal, and
they are confidant that the whole process of making
iron in all its various branches, will be done arab
anthracite.
I be new rolling mill, which is a very spacious sea
well -arranged building, is 150 by 60 fret. Tbtre
are'at vresent, web, hese. only five setts of rolls and
three or four puddling funiam s in operation; but
should the times change for the better. we might soon
st , e ; than in the full tide of successful operation,
main g all the different varieties of rail road iron.
Pbcenixville is a very good lotation for the ti anu
rectums of iron, as it has the advantages limb of rut
road and canal, both of which pass in elite of the
works, which strait facilities at all seasons of the
gear of getting coal. and also in transporting the
iiishufacturea article to market. It is situated on:
French - creek near its mouth, on thelicbuylktll t by
the ail road you can leave Reading in the morning,
and spend six or seven haws at the works, and re
turn by the cars the sameevening. The fare for the
trip is $1 50.
INV e have been requested by the enterprising pro.
! miters, to extend an invitation to such of the citi
zeds of this region, who feel-an interest in the iron
trade, to visit the works, and we can only say to alf
who do so, that if they should feeders much, gratified
with their vied as we were MTh out, limy , inn - not

may. leave Pottsville _at 7 in the morning, arrive at
Plicentzvilks at half past 4 in the afternoon, remain
there till 9 the next morning, and be in Pottsville

remains -dead `tb 'the importance at,d value of this

must induce us to enter into competition with our
own establishments, and occasion, perhaps, much
embarrassment, when the tostenng care of Orison•
great would divert the capital snto tbat branch of bu

The facilities we'posiesa here, over the manatee.
toren; of iron, canna be surpassed in any part of
the United States. Nature has bestowed her gifts
with a more lavish hand and with a profusion equal
to any spot: upon the Emerald Isle. They consist
in inexhaistible treasures of the richest ca C sreous
ores and limestone at the tunnel bead of the fur
nace—a prufuaiou of anthracite coal, froM both the
L ucian and Wyoming wallies, and bleamintwe
from the uunh anu west portioute of the btate—ag
ricultural products iu the greatest abundance, and a
canal of the largest capacity both to transport the
materials and export the viaducts. Ye t with all
these advantages we cannot compete with the neje.
tress of the walk!, unless our labour lee brought
down to the 'standard of the serf of Europe. It is_
labour that must govern and regulate every thing
else—the value of property sod its products—bring
it down to that of England and Germany, and we
shall manufacture successfully against the work
shops of Europe. But what American would de
sire to see this condition of things, end who would
exchange our active-and intelligent labourer for the
wild and half starved populace of Ireland or the
paupers of England ! The misevuhle and abject con
dition to which the labour of England and Inland
is reduced, 'sickens the heart of every brier of free
dom. Picture to your mind, two millions of people
farmed out to the iron masters—women and child
ren, and their scanty wastes applied to 'the poor
rates, and yet it is with this labour that we are to
contend.
Independent of theprice of labour (which is lees
than one %all of aura,) and of the'prarticed skill in
accumulated capital of European industry, its abun
dance gives the English iron master a more decided
alvantace over us. It enables him to introduce a
system and economy in his businese, which can
never be enforced Or carried out in this country.
Out working men become parties to all. our agree
ments, and 'fieguently "'kick 'before they are spur
red;" but the English labourers are fawned to the
will of their employers.
Our Government and its institutions are peculi
arly adopted, when well administered. ,to promote
the comfort and happiness of the labouring classes,
to elevate their character and to raise them from
penury and want to affluence •and ease. It is as
imperative and incumbent upon us, in trade as in
politics, to hawe, as little connexion witti itto Euro
pean nation as passiblit, - to separate ourselves from
them and render our people independent, at least in
their supplies of the necessaries of life.
It is a fact that cannot be pressed too strongly
upon the public mind; that every important English
manufacture. n.'w exported. has reached : its present
perfettion. cheapness and abundance, through pro•
led ion, and in most cases by prohibition. Give us
moderate protection and no one can doubt that
American skill. enterpnze and industry Will accom
