The productions of the manufacturing in.
dustry of our State are so various that we
shall have space only for a general sketch of
them. The production and manufacture of
iron in quantity greater than any other of the
States, is the leading manufacturing interest
of our State, and that which gives employ
ment to the greatest amount of capital and in
dustry, The Iron Works encourage all
branches of industry, furnishing a market for
the farmer, and employment for the mechanic.
In the amount of capital employed, and in
the amount of value annually produced:in iron,
Pennsylvanialeads the Union already, and the
mining operations and coal trade are in their
infancy yet : It is hardly possible t.) predict,
even to imagine, what way be its future im
portance and extent. Asa single item of in ,
crease, we may mention that in 1520 only 365
tons of anthracite coal were sent to market
from Pennsylvania, and in 1842, 1:112,86
tons were Bent, 800,000 tons of which were
exp6rted to other States. The amount is now
much greater— probably reaching 2,000, 0 00
of tons each year.
There is scarcely a comity in the State
where iron cannot be found, and furnaces,
forges. rolling mills, foundries, machine chops
and other manufactories, in which iron is the
chief material used, are every where to be
found.
In 1850, the capital employed in Pennsyl
vania in Manufactures, Mining and Mechanic
Arts was $:14,473,810, the value of raw ma
terial used $87,206,377, and the annual pro
duct was $155.0.14,910. Enployment was
given to 124,688 males and 22,078 females, to
whom $37,163,232 was annually paid for
wages. No other State approximate= Penn
sylvania in the value of annual product by
millions of dollars, except-New lork, Si lice
1850, these aggregates have been constantly
and steadily on the increase.
The production of pig or cast iron in l'enn
sylvania, was estimated by thy• loc,►l reports
of 1850, at 564,575 tons. more than the ag ,
gregate product of Russia, Belgium and:Sw -
den combined. The census returns for 1850,
show that of pig iron, Pennsylvania prodneeo
more than half of lhr. whol , . amount pro , lured
int& Union, and the ratio is probably now
even greater than it was then. In this branch
of manufacture" we give the figures for the
four States, which are the largest producers,
for the sake of comparison :

New Jersey and Kentucky, comes next in
order, but neither of them have a million of
dollars of capital invested in this branch of
business. Pennsylvania uses annually 877,-
283 tons of ore —an amount greater than all
the other States of the Union combined.
When we consider that this is almost entirely
the product of her own soil, we can form some
idea what a vast source of wealth exists in the
materials with which nature has, in such pro
fusion, furnished our State.
Our manufactures of wrought iron also far
exceed those of any other State in the Union,
while in those of iron casting, New York ex
ceeded us in 1850 by a a few thousand dollars,
but so great has been the increase in this last
branch of business, that there is noldoubt that
the census of 1860 will show that we now
lead iu this also. In 1850 the capital em•
ployed in Pennsylvania in wrought iron, was
$7,828,916. the annual value of material used
85,698,563, and the value of product $9,224,-
256. In New York, the value produced was
$3,758,547, and in Massachusetts $3,908,-
952; no other State reaches a million and a
quarter of dollars in its annual product.
The value of cast. iron products in 185(1'
was as follows :
$5,921,950
. 5,35401
. 3,069,350
, 2,235,635
No other State reached a million, and but few
exceeded a half tuillion of dollars.

These figures show us to how great an ex
tent the Keystone of the confederation is
strengthened—bound to her sister States b‘
bands of iron. The census returns of 1850,
which were then considered imperfect'and be
low the mark, give us iu this State 662 fir-t
class iron manufar! t ruing establishments, em
ploying,:--;19,832,265—0r a fraction short of
twenty millions of capital—supplying labor
directly to 20,675 hands ; directly or indirect
ly feading and clothing at least half a million
of people, and producing an annual value of
$20,650,650. The aggregate iron business of
all the other States of the Union combined
does not equal that of Pennsylvania alone.—
But this is but one item of the wealth pro.
diming interest of our State. In many other
branches of manufactures her citizens arc
largely interested, and the product both for do
mestic consumption and for export is large.—
In oar next article we shall speak of these, and
also of the prijductious of the forests, with
which about two- third. of the surface of our
Sta.e is still co' rid, and which yield

OEMOCRATiO STATE CONVENTION,
It.'i,rre,pondokeo of the Morning Post.l
TILE DE3IOCRITIC CONVENTION.
liAanis,nerm, March 4, 1858.
Mr 1 - .lllor : —The State capital is all alive
with politicians in attendance upon the Demo
cratic State Convention, which, in pursuance of
the time honored custom of the party, assembles
to-day to nominate candidates for Canal Com
missioner end Judge of the Supreme Court, and
incidentally to discuss the great political topics
which are before the people of this " great and
glorious country." Apart front the delegates,
there are large numbers of outsiders, anxious
to see how things work, and perhaps indirectly
to " have+ a finger in the pie
The CoEvention was called to order at ten
o'clock n Charles R. Bnokalew, Chairman
ihe state Central Committee
0-, motion of Col. Arnold Plumer, lion. Victor
E. Plollo, of Bradford, was appointed temporary
Cludrinan,.and Mossrs. C. A. Ithodee, of Lon
cw.orr, and B. Grant, of Erie, Snro•aries The
rule' of the House of Repreeeutatives were
tidopted, as far as practicable, and the list was
called.
The contested seats, of which there were sev
eral, were temporarily laid over, a resolution
being adopted that one contestant on each side
should be beard, the time being limited to five
minutes.
Mr. Hopkins, of Washington, moved that a
committee of ono from each Senatorial district,
be appointed for the purpose of selecting per
manent officers to prezdde over the Convention
Mr. Cassiday offered the following as an amend
ment :
ke.o/ns , i, That we now proceed to the election of
a President, viva rove, to preside over tho delibera
tions of tni- Convention, and that thirty three Vice
Presidents be appointed—ono from each Senatorial
district—to be selected by the delegates from he dif
ferent districts.
Mr Wright thought the amendment out of
order, to which Mr. Hopkins replied that it was
in order, but he hoped it would not be agreed
to, as it was departing from the usages of the
Democratic party.
After considerable discussion, the question
wee put upon the amendment, and the Chair de
cided it to be lost. This created some uproar
and confusion, and the Chairman withdrew his
decision, and on calling the yeas and nays the
amendment was lost, by a vote of—yeas 58,
nays 68
Mr. Hughes moved to amend the original reso
lution, that the delegates for the different dis
tricts select the members of the committee
This amendment was accepted by the mover of
the original resolution, and the resolution was
then agreed to.
Mr. Wright moved that the Convention now
proceed to consider the contested seats; which
was agreed to.
The contested seat from Philadelphia was first
disposed ,f, Mr. N. Nathans, who was unable to
attend, having substituted Mr. W. 0. Kline in
his place. It was contended that the delegate
had no right to Rubstiture. After a rather warm
!lbscus-it_;n, Mr. Kline was admitted—Wleas, 50
nays.
The Convention 'ben adjourned, and re-as
sembled at Yk o'clock, and the consideration of
the contested seats was proceeded with.
The contested seat from Indiana county was
nest in orthtr. Mr. .Jameson presented certain
paper-, from which it appears that Philip Cel
li: N is the regularly appointed delegate frez;.
twat county ; but that he has removed from that
county, and they therefore ask that the name •.f
Adam Lowry be substituted for that of Mr. Col
I;ns.
Mr. Stokes advocated the right of Mr. Collies
.e. , ,.t—statlng that he was a contractor, and
, •ens,quently frequently absent ; but he was rl
eegular citizen of Blairsville, Indiana county,
ut 1 he ,le,ve , l that Philip !MMus be admitted to
H the Convention.
Mr Calhoun defended the right of Mr. Collins
to a se It in the Convention, and stated that Mr.
tiling was on'y temporarily absent to attend to
sick .-tator lying within the town of Ebensburg.
It was ~ nly a , I nestion of law whether Mr. C“I-
tvol lost his residence in the county of In
diana, and he averred that Mr. Collins was still
a resident of Indiana county.
Mr. .1 tmoson remarked that lie had to contend
against two western giants, (referring to Messr , .
Stoke: , rind Calhoun,) i nt :1:i hoped that he would
he able to show that the Democracy of Indiana
~aunty tight to be represented by a moo living
in Indiana county They did not want a man
living in Cambria, county to represent Indiana.
Ile had nothing to say against Mr. Collins. Ile
had nominated him himself in the County Con
vention as a delegate, and voted for him; but he
did not want. the few Democrats of Indiana
county to he deprived of being represented in
the Convention.
Mr Collins arose himself, after being called
upon, and stated that he still considered Indiana
county his residence.
The Convention refused to admit Mr. Collins ;
yeas 52, nays 71.
Mr. Adam Lowry was therefore admitted.
The committee to select permanent officers of
the Conveutinn, reported that they had ag,re(d
upon a report, and submitted the following:
JOHN L. DAWSON, F4iyetto aountk
VICE PRESIDENTS:
E. C. Evans, Silas B. Beans,

F. M. Crane,
Jos. Campbell, L. B. Patterson,
The Convection accepted the report, and the
officers took their seats.
Hon. John L. Dawson, upon taking the chair
as President of the Convention, delivered a
lengthy and e oquent speech, which was received
with cheers of applause. Ile discussed the Kan
sas difficulties with great power, and was very
decided in his support of all the opinions of Mr.
Buchanan.
lion. Hendricks B. Wright, of Luzerne, moved
fur a committee of thirteen to draft resolutions
expressive of the sense of the Convention. Thir
teen gentlemen were appointed, which gave rise
to conside,tible discussion, as they appeared all
to be Loeompton men
Mr. Stokes, representing opposite views, moved
fur the additiou of four to the Committee, upon
which the yeas and nays were called, and result
ed in the negative. Many able speeches were
delivered by different members. The Convention
adjourned until eight o'clock in the evening.
The night session gave rise to a debate upon
several questions, but inasmuch as the Com
mittee on Resolutions declared their inability to
report before Friday morning, the Convention
adjourned over until that time.
There is considerable bitterness manifested,
and the outside pressure is tremendous. The
speaking upon the resolutions is looked for with
the greatest interest. The Administration will
he fully endorsed. Yours,
ANOTHER VETO,
Governor Packer, in pursuance of the wise
policy to which we have already alluded, has
vetoed tho bill entitled "an act to vacate
a portion of Strawberry Lane in Breed's plan
in the Reserve tract, opposite Pittsburgh; in
Allegheny county," on the ground that it is
a question for judicial rather than legislati;e
action, and might involve important questions
of public and private interests. As in the
cases of his other vetoes against acts of needs
less special legislation, the Governor has been
tally sustained by the Legislature.
Important Legislation In Texas
AA important bill has just been passed by
the Texas Legislature, and been signed by the
Governor. It is an act opening the almost
entire public domain of the State at fixed
prices. The Commissioners of the Land
Office are authorized to sell land scrips in
quantities of 160, 320, 640 and 1280 acre

literary journals and magazines, are sold here

more newspapers and periodicals on their

house first went into the b7siness as a news , ,

seems to have improved as much as the quan ,

in proportion. The London journals we
rarely saw in those days. Now at every for •

give a list of the elegant American periodicals
which they supply weekly and monthly—and
so cheap too. Such publications as Harper's

We publish on our outside a description of

promenade of a mile.

—An exchange says—At Iligh Hill, Go., Mr.
Jackson, a merchant, was accused of an indis
cretion with a Pianter's daughter. The injured
father called upon the merchant for satisfaction.
This was declined, when the enraged father
caught Jackson in his own store by the hair of
his head, drew him across the counter, and
with a huge knife severed his head from his
body. The old man was arrested, tried and ac
quitted. The ground of his discharge was, that
the murder was committed in self-defense.
—The 'Engineers employed on the Pennsylva
nia Central Railroad " struck " on Monday eve
ning and Tuesday morning. The cause was the
dispensing with the services of men at the engine
stations, who, upon the return of each engines
took charge of it, shifted and housed it, relieving
the engineers on the moment of the arrival. By
the discharge of these engine attendants, the
engineers were required to shift and house their
own engines. There was some little difficulty
on Tuesday morning, in consequence of the
strike, and some of the freight trains were not
run. At noon the engineers thought better of
, and went to work agl.in. All is right now.
—What a tre:nou.lou,A lot of Band that " Re-
tired Phy-ician," must have had on hand. lie
is still talking about his sands being " nearly
run out." We wish lie was " run out." is a
nuisance. Is tried to bore us with his old song
about "sands of life almost run out," but we
declined. We wish he was under a sand bank
so far that he cool I not make himself heard.
—The Baltiniore Patriot is cautioning, the
public against a swindling operation called the
"National Cons'lidated Lott Pry." The Patriot
says the tickets are either forged or worth noth
ing when genuine.
The American patent law pays a high oomph
meat to Englishmen. While au American is
granted a patent for thirty dollars, a British Fob
jest is charged five hundred dollars, the nativ-q
of any other foreign country being charged only
three hundred dollars. The moral cowardice
vinced in this twitter by Brother Jonathan is
worth the additional two hundred dollars in tbe
way of compliment to the superiority of John
Bull. Posterity will "take a note" of this fact,
and draw a conclusion from it which will not be
at all favorable to the smartest nation in all cre
al ion. —,lfentreal Pilot.
If an American wishes to obtain a patent
in England, he has to go through a "Circum
locution office r " at an expense of thousands
instead of hundreds of dollars, and after all
it is more than probable that some John Bull
steals his invention, and claims it as his own.
John Bull is the last individual who has a
right to speak of liberty in matters of this
kind.
A Reckless Man
A man named Bill Farr was killed on last
Christmas day, at Tehama, California. Bill was
a notable character in his way. The Red Bluffs
Beacon says of him
Our readers will remember an advertisement
that appeared in our paper last spring, stating
that Bill Farr would fight a grizzly bear, single
handed, on the 4th of July, at Tebama. His life
seemed to be of no consequence to him. We have
frequently heard him remark that he would as
soon be killed as not ; and on one occasion we
actually knew of his standing up very coolly with
a person as reckless as himself, each taking a
shot at the other's hat at a distance of fifty steps,
as it remained ou his head. The result was that
Bill's hat was shot through, and a small bunch
of hair cut away, while the skin on the other
man's cranium was laid bare for three or four
inches by Bill's half-ounce hall. Bill was a great
terror to the Indians, he having killed a great
many in his time, some of whom, as he said him
self, he shot to see them fall.
Without Military Protection.
There appears to be great dissatisfaction in
Arkansas and Texas on account of the with•
drawal of the troops from the Western frontier,
male necessary by the expedition to the Mor
mon country. The whole line west of Arkansas
and Texas is to be left unprotected. The forts
are all to be vacated, and a distance of one
thousand miles of the frontier of these two
States, with the largest Indian population on
their borders in the United States, is left entire
ly defenceless. The journals South think that
Congress ought to do something which will give
protection to those quarters of the country.
This does not look like endorsing the late defeat
of the Army Bill in the Senate.
CONCERNING KISSES —" The kiss," says an an
cient woman hater, " the,ourora of love, but the
sunset of chastity."
After the first kiss there follows a second, then
a third, and so upward on to the many rugged
ladder of love to the ulttma thule. One kiss is
very little and yet very much. It is the word
less interpreter of two hearts, which by this one
breath tell each other more than by myriads of
words. The kiss is the liigh priest who initiates
the heart in the Elusinian mysteries of love.
The ancients counted three kinds of kisses
Bask, that between friends and relatives.
Oscuta, the kiss of veneration.
Suavia, the kism proper—that between lovers
The monks of the middle ages—great then
rists—dividod the kiss into fifteen distinct untl
separate orders:
1. The decorous or•modet-t kiss.
2. The diplomatic, or kiss of policy.
3. The spying kiss, to ascertain if a woman
had drunken wine.
4. The slave kiss.
5. The kiss infamous—a Church penance.
G. The slipper kiss, practised toward tyrants.
7. The judicial
8. The fuedal kiss.
9. The religious kiss (kissing -the cross.)
10. The academical kiss (on joining a solemn
brotherhood.)
11. The list.d kiss.
12. The Judas kiss.
13. The medical kiss—for the purpose of
healing some sickness.
14. The kiss of etiquette.
15. The kiss of love—the only true kiss. But
this was also to be variously considered. viz:—
given by ardent enthusiasm, as by lovers; by
matrimonial affection; or, lastly, between two
men—an awful kiss, fasting like sandwiches
without butter or meat.

WEAKNESS OF THE STOMACH AND INDIGESTION.—
ANOTHER GREAT CURE EFFECTED BY BO‘RHAVE'S
HOLLAND BITTERS.—The wife of Pieter De Witte,
living in Holland Town, Sheboygan county, Wiscon
sin, suffered much from Weakness o. the Stomach
and Indigestion. She had been under a physician's
care for some time, hut the disease seemed to baffle
oven his Idyll. She purchased some HOLLAND
BITTERS at our office, which has given tone to her
stomach ; her appetite and strength are returning,
and we firmly believe that this is another great cure
effected by your medicine.
Wo have still to record many wonderful cures
(ffected by this remedy, but must wait another op
portunity. One thing you can rely upon, what we
have published are from persons much respected in
our community, and are literally true.

M'LANE'S VERN!! FUGH IN TEXAS.—Hear what
tho Proprleto: of the " Star Hotel " has to say of the won ier
ful effects of M Lane's Vermifuge:
" STIR HOTEL," CENTREVILLE, Texas, Aug 22d, 1854.
lowing statement Several of my children have been un
well for the last wool' or two I called at the "But MOR.T.ST:
to get seine Oil of Wormseed and other truck, to give them
for worms. The "ruggist recommended IP Lanes Verntifug,,
prepared by you, bat having heretofore, tried every Vermi_
fuge, in my knowing, without advantage, I told luta it was
not worth while, as my children appeared proof against them
all. Ile stead to take a bottle, and offered it it done no good
to refund the meney. To satisfy him I done so, and the ef
fect was so much better than expected that I got another
bottle, and the result was most astonishing. Three of my
children discharged a great number of the largest worms I
ever saw. To a young man, my Mail Carrier, who was
weak, pithy and poor as a snake, for a month or so, I gave
two doses, which brought from him at liast a pint of what
is called stomach worms! Strange as ihis may appear, yet
it is as " true as preaching.' How the boy stood it, so long
as he did, with ten thoeand Boys " gnawing at his atom
ach, is the greatert wonder to me. At. these cases are new
doing well. No doubt the lives of thousands of children
h , ve been saved by the timely nee of this exeraordineiry
medicine. Don't fail to give it a trial.

THE CHEMICAL OLIVE ERASIVE
SOAP, manufactured by B. C. .1. ii. lawyer, re
receives the preference over all other kinds ever oßertd for
family use.
its a d v antages over other Soaps are —let. It is cheaper
to use, One pound being equal to throe of common rosin
soap. Si . Half the time need only be occupied in washingen this Soap to used in
place of other Soap. 3d. Labor
w
in washing can be nearly d spensed with, as the clothes
will requite little if any rubbing, thus avoiding their wear
on the wash-board. 4th. Bulling the clothes is unnecessary
when this Soap is used, and hard or salt water answers
equally as well as soft. 6th. Printers, Machinists, Painters
and others, find it far superior to other Soaps. It opt edily re
moves grease, tar, paint, printers' ink and dirt from the
h a nds, leaving the skin soft, and free from chapping.
To avoid the labor of rubbing the clothes, and the use of
the washboard, the following directions should be followed :
For the washing of eight or ten of a family, take one
pound of Soap, cat it into shavings, and dissolve In one
gallon of hot water; put the clothes into a tub containing
about ten gallons of warm water; pour in the dissolved
Soap, and stir thoroughly. Let them soak twenty to thirty
minutes, wring out, and rinse in warm water once, cold
water twice. A very dirty wrist-band, or seam, or grease
spi ts, may require a slight rubbing, but otherwise the
clothes will come out clean and white, without rubbing or
boiling. Cold water maybe used in place of hot, requiring
about double time in soaking.
