Rati. Roao Iboji Ifaw if mnuteure fie
nefit the country In our article of last week
upon the progress ol the msunfscture of Riil
Road Iron in thi country, we neglected to in
elude the Boon ten Mill in the In. I uf. Rolling
Mills, which we published. These worka are
located in New Jersey, and can produce 7000
tons per annum. Thia amount added to tha a
gregate of the worka mentioned in last week's
paper givee 120,000, tons aa the quantity of Rail
Road Iron which the Rolling Mille of this eoun
try are able to produce. Tbe actual cost of ma
king these 126.000 tons ia about Sn.300.0rj0, be
ing at the rale of $50 per ton. Ten per cent
of thi amount iniy be reckoned aa the worth
of the ore & fuel in the iround, the balance,
ninety per cent, ia the proportion expended for
lobor in the various processes through which the
ore passefl be fore it ia converted into Rail Road
Iron. From this il appears thatjit-e milhoni
nix hundred ani $eventy thousand dollar are
paid for labor in manufacturing the Rail road
iron which can now be mndo at the Rolling
Mills in the United States. , , f , ,
Although we have not sufficient date to fur.
nish a very accurate statement of the number of
hand employed in these work, we era ablo to
make an estimate which, will not vary much
from being correct. The number of working
days in tha year ia three hundred. Thi give

A Ji'BT Rrbi'KK. The Montreal Guiette con.
ta ns a long article upon the military plan or
the Executive, aa indicated by the movements
in Mexico, which clearly proclaims in the au
thor, a soldier of great skill and comprehension
He conclusively show that the administration
know what they are about, that their plana are
totally different from those aacnbed to lhem-by
the newspaper, and that the 'letter writers'
and editorial sages who represent them aa in
volved in peurile perplexities, prove nothing bet
ter than their ignorance and want of patriotism.
The sagacious sohJier who writes the ar'icle
in tho Montreal Uazclte, says, with a little
cautic astire upon the spirit governing some of
our journals that 'dabble in partisan politics, Mf
the American government haa not, to prstify
iheir newspapers, brought the wsr to maturity.
with the hssty expedition of a ninety day note
or a shipment of flour, it has, in a short time, ea
tabl'shed a grander baae ofoperatinna jn extent,
than haa ever been seen in moJcrn warfare.'
In support of this, he says that the plan of thu
sdtninhlration is to attack several pom's at
once, each commanding all in its rear, ar.d to
keep whatever ia taken., , For this purpose Col,
Freemnnt explores Californis, to be supported
by Col- Stevensnn'a regiment, a greater force

all the country to Mstarnuras, proceed to Ssn

would show thnt the owner wss Don Ignacio
something or other, captain of the 3d company
of Guanajnoto cavalry, and to set forth that Don
Ignaein wis a man of Some Consequence, he had
s scarlet coat of tho finest Voadcloth, covered
wi'h pure silver buttons; ornamented with rich
silVor embroidery, and uporT tho breaaf of which
waa an order. Ilia cap was of bTu velvet, rich!
or name ited with silver band "and tassels, while
his cavalry pantaloons, of blue broadcloth foxed
with mororco, had a wide Stripe of red "down
the outer seam. Among ' the bsggage were
also a niatlresr., aevoial pillows, the cases of
which were.elsbnrstely worked, and otlier fine
