In one mile Of singlaltrack Rail road, there are-about iOO toils of rails; to pro duce which one hund-ed and twenty-three tons of Piglron is required, and this quantity has often •beeo made by a single Anthracite furnace in me . week.. In 1855 about 500,0,015 tons of pig iron was made by die blast furnaCes in op:ration in this State, anti this quantify, of .pig-iron is suffi dent to make Railroad bars for 3769 Miles of railroad track. • fj There are at this time; probably, mire blast furnaces in the United' states, than vtould be required, if working. at-their f :11 capacity, to furnish the iron needed for Railroads, and all other purposes in this• country. In' view of this, it would be much wiser to employ onr own - people, in the production of our iron at home, instead of sending, out of the "ountry some fifteen or twentyMinlions of gold every year, to purchase iron iii England.—Lebanon Courier. , Every sensible person knows it would be better to keep the twenty millions of dollars in this country, and employ our own workmen, who will consume the e pilKluce of the farmers at home—but the "dimdcracy" has become so completely "Irishizel,r that it goes by "Con irarys," and thinks it better to send the twenty million dollars abroad, Send the produce of the, farmer three thousand miles across the ocean after it, and then send a considerable portion of the "dinumlicy" to the rum shop, on the road to the AIMS House, and the Pri son, where the sober and industrious portion of the community haje 'to support. them.
