PENNSYLVANIA LI A N UFACT
SHAVE:ft BUCKETS.
The village of Fallston is not a handsome
place—it does not make any pretensions to
either rural or architectural beauty ; New
Brighton, on the other side of the Beaver
river, one of the handsomest country towns
in the western country, has all these ; but
Fallston, with its single street between the
river and the hill, squeezed in between the
land and the water, has elements of produc
tive wealth, and men of enterprise to de
velope these elements, which render it the
most important of the little towns which have
grown up around the mouth of the Beaver.
The hill which towers above it is full of ex
cellent 'Coal end limestone which traverses
not a stones throw down hill to the place of
consumption and shipment, and the water,
which hems in below its, narrow limits, fur
nishes a cheap and exhaustless power to drive
the machinery of the various manufacturing
establishments which are located for a mile
along the bank of the Beaver river at this
point. A large flouring mill, Mr. John
- Pugh's, an extensive wire factory, Messrs.
Townsend's large saw mills, and a great vt
rieti of minor manufacturing establishment,
art carried on thereabouts. The fall of the
Beaver river, which, in the distance of five
miles from its month amounts to sixty-nine
feet, affords an immense motive power at very
little cost. By water, from the very flours ol
the mills, there is a medium of transporta
tiolf north, south, east and west, to all parts
of the country. The raw material can, bar
brought to this point, manufactured and
transported to a market with the greatest rossi.
ble degree of economy. The Pittsburgh, Fort
Wayne and Chicago R. R. which skirts along
the river, gives, with its various trains, al•
most hourly access to the city of which these
Beaver manufacturing villages may almost
he looked upon as suburbs. There is little
danger of overestimating the manufacturing
facilities which are - afforded along the Beaver
river. Their, development is graftual and
healthy, but no one familiar with the locality
can doubt that ere many years have passed
it will be one of the greatest manufacturing
districts in Pennsylvania.
At an early day skillful mechanics apnre_
ciated the value of the water power of the
Beaver and took advantage of it. It v,-a-; at
Fallston that the first manufactory of
PATE.NT TUBS AND BUCKET:,
was' established in the western ccuntry and
has been successfully carried on for a period
of more than thirty years. Mr. Amos Miner,
of Onondaga county, New ior'h, whence he
removed to Illinois, was the inventor
patentee of severatmechanical imprOvements
of great value. Among these were Miner's
Patent Wheel Head, a_ celebrated article in
its day, but since supplanted by more modern
improvements in machinery, Miner's Patent
Window Sash, and Miner's Patent Buckets
and Tubs. In 1826, his son, in partnership
with Mr. Champlain, established a factory at
the - falls of Beaver, which has since been
greatly extended, and the business is now ex
tensively carried on by Messrs. Miner & Mer
rick. By the4.llillful adaptation of machine
ry, by economy of all kinds in the production,
and by careful, personal superintendence on
the part of both the partners, they have
brought the business of manufacturing tubs
and buckets to as near perfection as it is pos
sible to arrive. The reputation which their
••manufactures, known all over the country as
"Beaver Buckets, " have acquired, renders it
needless for us to speak a word in favor of
- their qualities
The large Factory Building devoted exclu
sively to the making of buckets, is 40 feet by
80, three sto-ries high above the basement,
which is occupied by the water wheels and
other machinery. The front part of this build
ing, is a fire proof warehouse, for storing man
ufactured stock. A few rods above the Bucket
Factory, are two Tub Factories—one 30 by
50 feet, with a slate roof and fire proof—the
other, a wooden building, 6-1 feet by 3i feet.
The machinery of these large establlshments
is driven two of Ira Jagger's patent remaction
iron wheels, one 5 feet, and the other 4 feet
in aiatneter, each of about 40 hot - se power .
The fall of the water as now applied, is 15
feet, but the proprietors are about increasing
it 4 feet, which will place their 'machinery
beyond the contingency of stoppage from back
water. Last ;year but a single day was lost
on this account, notwithstanding- the very
high stage of the river frequently during the
season. Everything about the entire estab
lishment is very complete. Attached to the
water wheels arepowerful force pumps, and
a :supply of. hose and nozzles by means of
which, in case of fire, water can be thrown
to all parts 6f the buildings. The establish
ment employs about 30 hands, and can turn
out nine hundred buckets and forty tubs
for a day's work.
So completely is the machinery adapted to
the intended purpose, that few human hands
produce this immense product. About 100,-
000 cubic feet of the best quality of pine tim
ber is annually made into tubs and buckets.
The hoops, nails and handles, are of the best
iron, and are made at the works. The iron
is procuredinPittsburgh, and the wire next
door to the factory. The long experience,
which Messrs. Miner and Merricic,have had in
this.branch of manufacturing, theiskillful ap
pliances of their machinery, the cheapness of
motive power, and the fact that they give their
own - personal attention to the business, rens
der it certain that they can manufacture these
articles cheaper than any body(else in the
West. They have reduced economy of pro
duction to a science, and the practical experi
ence of more than thirty years is s:)f the great
est advantage. Their water pnwer for all
these factories does not cost them above $5O
ppr year, and all their arrangements are
made with a similar regard to an 'economical,
cheap and perfect product.
Their, principal markets arc, Pittsburgh
and-Cincinnati, although, of course, they
make shipments_to all parts of the West and
South, and all through the Lake country. We
observed yesterday an order about being
shipped to Alton, Illinois. The excellent
quality of the articles manufactured by Mes
srs. Miner Merrick, as well as the exceed
ingly low prices, render their manufactures
always in demand. They have recently
made a reduction in prices of their buckets,
tub:;, etc., which are now sold wholesale as

TUt BANE: OF BEAVER COUNTY.
This is one of the new banks of our State
but in its organization and the character o
its stockholders, the public have ample guar
antee of the sound and correct manner in
which its business is, and will continue to be,
conducted. An attempt has been made by
some of the black mailing gentry who pub
lish "Counterfeit Detectors," to throw a slur
upon the credit of this institution—an at
tempt which has utterly failed, as this bank
has proved itselt one of the soundest and best
conducted in the State. Its stock, of which
1505 shares have been sold, (par at 550, and
525 paid in on each share,) is all owned in
Beaver county, with the exception of 40 shares
, held in Pittsburgh. Its circulation is about
:5 0 5,000, to meet which it has coin in its
vaults, amounting to over 816,000, with up
wards of $7,000. due from other banks and
bankers. Its notes are par in this city, and in
Philadelphia are quoted the same as the Pitts
burgh banks. Here its circulation is redeem
ed by the Merchants' and Manufacturers'
Bank, which receives from the other banks
its notes taked in the regular course of busi
ness at par. It has no "protected loans,"
and no brokers have as yet entered its doors,
save as borrowers. It is in no manner under
the influence or control of outsiders, being
designed for the accommodation and benefit
of the people of Beaver county, and controll
ed by them: The recent expose of the Sham
okin, the Tioga, and the Crawford County
Banks, has induced some of these Detector
among whom is .John S. Dye, of
Now York, to endeavor to discredit the Bear
er County Bank among others. The fact that
higiote for $250 is noted among the assets of
the Tioga County Bank, is a sufficient indica
tion of the nature of his transactions and the
amount of credit to which his publications
are entitled. A similar attempt was made by
the Detector men of Cincinnati to make some.
thing out of the Beaver Bank. They have
both failed, for their letters and publications
have both been disregarded. The monthly
statements of the bank show its sound condi-
Lion and the legitimate manner in which its
affairs are conducted. It is in all respects a
soured institution, and it has been with stir
prise and regret that we have noticed an at
tempt in the Chronicle, indirectly to connect
it with the name of a financier, who has been
connnected too intimately, either for his own
or their credit, with the Crawford County
and kindred banks.

Import:ant Railroad Deetzlon
An important railroad decision has just been
rendered in the Uhited States Circuit Court of
Ohio. The complainants in the case were
mortgagees, for the Steubenville and Indiana
Railroad Company, and trustees under the
mortgages, for the holders of the bonds se
cured thereby. The company had defaulted
on the interest due upon these bonds, and the
defendant, Levi Sargent, the Treasurer of
Tuscarawas county, had seized a locomotive
and some cars embraced in said mortgage,
aud was proceeding to sell the same to pay
the taxes assessed against the company for
the year which was subsequent to the
default in the payment of interest. On the
ground that the company were unable to re
place the locomotive and cars in case they
were sold, and that the use and possession of
the same were absolutely necessary to the op
eration of the road by the company, the bill
prayed fur an injunction to restrain the treas
urer from selling them. Upon the filing of
the I•ili a provisional injunction was granted,
but upon a hearing of the case, this was die.
soivcd. JUdge McLean held that the lien of
the State for taxes was paramount to all pri
vate rights invested under the government, and
further that the default of interest on the
part of the company did not vest in the com
plainants the road and the equipments as
mortgages, but authorized them to take pos
session of the road and run it, or to sell it at
puhlic sale : that the - ownership of the road
could only be changed by the sale of it.
State TR= Reduced
We call attention of the public, to the fact
that by an act passed MayiGth, 1857, the State
tai_ of three rrills on the dollar imposed upon
real and personal estate , was reduced to two
tniils and a hal f. The reduction, it was pro
vided, should not go into operation or apply
to the tales levied for the year 1857, and
e•unie parties who knew that three milts had
been . 941 last year, have overlooked or for
gotten"-the law for the reduction, which is now
in farce.`
We understand that the interest upon the
Allegheny county bonds was forwarded for
payment - to the bondholders, with three mills
taken off : but the Commercial Bank, brought
the error to the attention of the proper author-
ities, who promptly corrected the error, and
paid up the difference. As there may be
other instances which too much has seen de
ducted for the payment of this tax to the
State, we mention this fact and the law as a
Matter of general interest.

TO TLIN VOLULtiTEERS OF PF.,NNSVI.
ADJUTANT GENERAL'S OFFICE, 1,
HARRISBURG, July 22, 1858. f
I have received many letters making inqui
ries as to the payment of Volunteers visiting
the Encampment ordered at Williamsport, Sep
tember 7, 1858, and it being impossible to an
swer all those communications, I doom it prop
er to make this publics reply.
The 6th article, sections 1 and 2 of the Con
stitution of 'our Commonwealth, requires its
" freemen to be armed and disciplined for sts de
fense," and in obedience to that injunction, our
Legislatures from time to time have passed laws
regulating the Militia, the last law bearing date
April 21, 1858.
Our Militia System, for many causes, has fail
ed heretofore to accomplish the purpose, at least,
of discipline. The law of last winter was pass
ed with especial reference to that design, and as
an inducement to our able bodied citizens—far
mers, mechanics, and laborers—to form them
selves into companies uniformed and equipped
in a proper manner, provided a payment to
them of one dollar and fifty cents per day, (not
to exceed six days) as some equivalent for the
time consumed in schooling themselves in milita
ry tactics. The Legislature wisely provided for
the proper payment of these and other military
expenses, by authorizing and requiring a milita•
ry tax to be assessed, collected throughout the
State, and aporopriated especially to the milita
ry fund, so much thereof as should be necessary
to be used for military purposes, and directed
the surplus left to be paid into the State Treas•
• ury. No other fund can bo touched for the pray
merit of the volunteer militia, except this one ;
and the surplus, after it reaches the Treasury,
cannot be touched for the payment of any Divis
ion or Brigade military expenses. The State
Treasury is relieved from any burden or liabili
ty in these matters.
Every county in the Stateis constituted a Bri
gade, and the militia tax raised in each is ap
plied to the payment of its military expenses,
and if the military taxes paid are less than the
expenses, the volunteers of that Brigade must
then remain unpaid to that amend. There is
established in every Brigade a Board of Audi
tors, composed of military men, who aro requir
ed to audit the military expenses of their re
spective brigades, and arc authorized to draw an
order on the County Treasury for ouch as shall
meet their approbation, to bo paid out of the
military fund, if any, in the Treasurer's hands.
Military companies attending camp "Susque
hanna" in September next, aro entitled to daily
pay for their attendance, which will be paid out
of the military fund of the brigade to which
they respectively belong - , but should there be no
fund in the particular brigade to pay the same,
then the companies will remain unpaid, but if
the collectors are faithful in their duties, each
brigade will have a fund more than sufficient for
this and their ordinary expenses.
The rules and regulations from my office are
now i❑ the hands of the State Printer, and will
soon be ready for publication. I make the fol
lowing extract from them, as applicable to the
present subject, viz:
MILIT 4EY EXPENSES
The miiitary fund in the State Treasury, is
responsible for no military expenses except those
of the Adjutant General, General Staff, military
storekeepers, repairs of a.rseilea and repairs o
arras, &o.
If the military fund in any county is not suf
fficient for the payment of the expenses of the
brigade, the county treasurer will make a pro
rata division among the several claimants. •
No °Mame whatever, in any division or brigade
has any authority to make explmees which shall
in any event be chargablo to the State.
The county treasurers will *be careful and
observe the law, in making payments, and are
directed—
To pay no military expenies unless on the
order of the Board of Auditors, as directed by
not of Assembly of April 21, 1858.
2. Tee salaries of Brigade Inspectors will not
be.paid until the close of the military year, being
the last day in December in each year : if .paid
VANIA.
before, and the said Inspectors have not made
their proper returns to this office, the treasurers
do so at their own risk. The law requirrs this
salary not to be paid intil notice is given to the
treasurers by the Adjutant General. ,
The Brigade Board of ,nditors rill observe
a proper economy in the expenses of their brig
ade, and lass no bills that aro in any way exor
bitant.
All military officers are enjoined to take espe
cial care that the proper assessments are made,
and all the military taxes collected.
All colleotors and treasurers will be held to a
strict account, under the law in relation to the
collection of-military fines and taxes."
The Encampment at Williamsport will be large
and respe.otable, and it is desired by this depart
ment that, as many companies as possible be
punctually in attendance at that time. It is a
" camp of Instruction " and many able military
men from thin and other States will be there to
impart instruction and give to the volunteers
assembled the benefit of their knowledge and ex
perience.
However much we may regret their absence,
yet those who cannot bear the additional ex
pense are Hot expected to be in camp—hut all
who can do eo conveniently should have milita
ry pride enough to attend promptly whore duty
calls them.
A suffioient numl er of excellent tents will be
provided for the accommodation of all, and the
Quartermaster General will assign quarters to , 1 1 1
companies immediately on their arrival in cam
In closing this communication, I am plea:3A
to state that the Commonwealth is likely to rt:-
ceive a handsome surplus from the military fund,
which will find IA e way into the sinking fund, r.1:1
assist in paying the debt that hangs so heavily
on cur people. Respectfully,
EDWIN C. WILSON,
Adjutant General.

patented by James 3fiLilria, Eeq., cf Philadel
phia, and the chairs are now produced in great
perfection by the Phoenix Iron Company of that
city. There chairs are a desideratum longirequir
ed in the perfection of railway joints. They are
rolled over a mandril, which is the exact form
of the ilatree3 of the rail, and arc finished with
a base of seven and ono-half inches, and with
solid double continuous lips, which fit and clamp
tightly any form or may sin of rails. The wide
bare resting on the cross-ties, or continuous
bearing, gives the rail a firm support, and pre
vents it from sinking into tho wood, while the
perfect fit of the lips of the chair over the flanges
of the rail forms a sleeve, which holds the rail
firmly in its place and prevents vertical motion
under the weight of approaching trains of cars.
The perfection of the sleeve principle is such
that this chair has been used for the . , purpose of
suspending the joints of rails between the oross
ties, thus furnishing a joint of sufficient elastic
ity to prevent tho 41 battering of rails" at the
ends, which, by all former claims, had not been
obviated. When designed to used in this man
ner, the chairs aro rolled to any required thick
ness which may be found necessary. to give
equal strength and rigidity with any other part
of the rail. This c'noar has an akvantage ever
any other sleeve, or fish joint, in use; in the fact
that it does not require either bolts or screws--
the source of so much trouble and expense in all
forms of ."_fish joint"—and in the fact that it
more nearly approaches a continuous rail.
