Anthracite Iron.
The proprietors of the Croton works in New
Jerioy, have recently - discovered the mode of refin
ing iron with. Anthracite Coal, and have made an
experiment with Several tons pig metal, obtained at
the Crane works,-in which the whole prodess from
the ore to tho bar, hes been effected with . Anthra
cite coal. In the refining process, the result is a
saving of abont•3o per cent., notwithstanding the
cost of the coal was about $4 25 per ton. The loss
of weight in the first process was about two-thirds,
and in the second about dace-fourths less than in
the ordinary mode with charcoal. This fact, with
the excellent "quality-of the Iron, proves the superi
orityief the fuel; and also establisheri the fact, that
the coal region is the place where the smelting and
refining can - be carried on to the greatest advan
tage: To mine-the ore, costs about $1 per ton, and
the tool, in , ' some locations, would not exceed 75
cents. But The proprietors of the Danville works,
having made the discovery, they have determined
upon' constructing their refinery in the coal region,
and 'from the•ahundanCe of ore that is found along
side of the inat,:it will not be long before the entire
estabiishmenta for smelting and refining, will be
found at the inouth of the mines.—Penn. Inquirer.
All correct. 'The opal regions where the ore and
coaks foundlying contiguous, is the only proper
place for thelocation of extensive iron works. After
th e ore is converted into pig metal,—there is no
more ore required in manufacturing irom—but it
will require at least three tons of coal to convert pig
metal into aim of 'good bar iron. Sere the Fur
nace, Refinery; •Rolling Mill, and Factory for work
ing up-the metal into all the various purposes for
which it is required, can be located at the mouth
of a draft, from Whibh the ore and coal can be run
into the tunitel heid of the Furnace, refined and
manufactured on the spot, without any transports
tion,_eicept transporting the manufactured articles
to amarket, which can be done throughout the
whole year by means of the Canal or Rail goad.

" Where are we te ineet with such a lead.-
er? By what qunlifications are we to know

merely brave but bold, enterprising, and de
cisive; always seeking an opportunity to
strike at his enemy. lle . triust be as prudent
as he is brays, always seeking for informa

to the pleasures ef the table ; butliis mind al
ways devoted to the exercise of the arms. He
must have an eagle's eye, for ever on the
watch inspecting the condition of his camp,
and inducing every responsible reicer to at

indolence must flee from his presence. His
officers respect and 4ear him, while his men
love and respectl him. He is ambitious of

He is attached to arms: not so much because
it is his business as his pleasure.
", If !my one asks us.where such a man is to
be-met with, we answer to the best of our abili

of his army by a participation of their hard
ships; the man who was finally triumphant
over his enemy. 1 Socha man is WILLIAM
HENRY HARRISON!"
Reader, have you ever read anything in the
Harrison papers during the whole contest, as
complimentary to Gen. Harrison, as the above
extract from the Richmond Inquirer of 1814?
Ritchie then spoke his honest convictions—
but now, since he has become one of Van
Buren's public printers, he is absolutely en
gaged in traducing the character of Gen. liar
rison, both as a Soldier and a Statesman.
"Oh ! shame I *hells is thy blush !"
The Brave defend the )grave. ' :
In the Pittsburg Gazette which reached
us yesterday, we find' the following letter, in
which a gallant soldier bears direct testimo.
ny to the gallantry of a brother officer:
SARATOGA Sraircos, Aug. 20, 1940.
Dear Sir :—Your complimentary letter of
the 10th inst., inviting me on the part of the
Harrison Committee of correspondence for
Butler County, to visit you,•aud be present at
a Convention in Pittsburg, has found me in
this place.
A tour through the Keystone B,tre, would
be highly interesting to me, but Ai), public
duties at this time forbid, and I ought to add,
that as'an officer of the Federal Government,
I early prescribed to myself the rule to ab
stain frOm taking an active part in the con
flict of politics. Hence, in thirty-two years,
I have not once been to the Polls, or toe par
ty meeting. This official reserve has, how
ever, never prevented me from discussing
with the spirit of a freeman, in the casual in
tercourse of society, the merits of all public
men and public measures of my time. Thus
it has often fallen in my way to bear zealous
testimony, to the - distinguished services of
General Harrison, both as a statesman and a
soldier.' With those services I have long
been familiar, and can only attribute to gross
ignorance or to party ,maligiiitl; the recent
imputations to which, you allude.
If at,the end of the late war with Great
Britain; or at the end of that - successfully wa
ged by General 'Wayne against the North
western Indians, any person had shamelessly
impeached the courage of Gen. Harrison, he
would, 1 am fully persuaded, have not only
his patriotism but his'ecierage denied by eve
ry honest hearted American.
It was never my fortune to serve in the
same field with General Harrison.—But I
'well remember the admiration entertained by
my immediate associates in arms for the Hero
of Tippecanoe, Fort Meigs, and the River
Thames. This sentiment as far as ever 1
knew or believed,• was common throughout
our ArMies, both officers and men, placing
him, with one aceord, in the Class of our most
gallant end successful commanders. • •-
ithOut meaning to violate the selfrim
posed restriction Mentioned ',above:l-cannot,

01Modern demagogues have questioned the pall:
tics Of his (Harrison's) youthful days. Bettie, who
have! been deceived by falsehood, but more slap ink
inflUenced by malice, have placed the black cockade
in his hat.—Every man familiar with the history a(
this country knows that since 1776, the cockride l liek
beef a part of the established uniform of the Amerit
can 'army, and that all military officers are required,
•
to wear it. While Harrison was in Rervice, it Iraw,
his duty to wear it as a part of his uniform, air Wash.
ingtbn had done befoce ; and it was, no doubt, on l i s
hat istien - he was an Aid-de-Camp to Genitaoffeyiuo.,
in tlie decisive battle of the Maumee„whicb, in, fAL
terminated therevolutionary war. The saixiecockade
ad4ed his hat when it was pierced by a rifle ball,
in the baffle of Tippecanoe, and when he ceequereil
the enemies of his country at Mississinntitire, Fort'
Kei4s, and the Thames. It was thei the badge of
his military profession,not of his potsties ;- 14t me a.,
sureyou, sir, that the man who ascribes toihim the
black cockade as a political badge, slanders him moat
vilely. When that signal distinguished the partietk
of the day, I was in habits of intimacy with him—l
saw him almost every day, and affirm before high;
Heaven, that he was an open. decided supporter of
Al,. Jefferson, against the elder Adams. Had it been
otherwise, he would not have been suppOrt+l ha the
territorial Legislature of 1799 astheDemocriticcan,
didate for congress against Arthur St. Clair,
was the Federal candidate, and recsived, eate federal
vote in both houses. Having been:mysel4 ti member
of that legislature, I cannot, be deceived; an Heaven :
knows, that I have no desire to deceive oth ra. But,
fact does not rest on my declaration *lon Judge .
Sibley, of Detroit, and General Darlingtop f West
Unicin, who, with myself, are the only as ore.rof
that body, have made the same `declaration,:

as a IJeffersonien republican, and that his
