JEFFERSONIAN REPUBLICAN From the Dallimore American. Tlie Iron Manufacture. Appended to the Report of the Committee uti Manufactures, are some interesting state ments relative to the various important domestic satercsis. A communication from Mr. "Voung, .Superintendent of the Mount Savage Iron A'orks, near Cumberland in tlnVStato, gives ome valuable information concerning the man ufacture of American Iron. Mr. Young states that in answer to an inter rogatory from the Committee, that a duty of 50 er cent, ad valorem would be altogether inade ',.iatc to sustain the iron masters of the country. Villi a reasonable belief that our legislators would modify the Compromise Act and give a Miitable protection, those engaged in the iron .Manufacture, whose means-enable them to do have prepared to continue their works in t jeration this year and work up their stock of i .Atenals. iut it is auueci, u ine oompromtse ...ct goes into effect, there will be not a blast i .rnace, using Charcoal, in operation in 1843 Vermont, Connecticut, Massachusetts, New i rk, New Jersey, Delaware, Maryland, Penn . . Ivania or Virginia east of the mountains. The reasons for this belief are given. It is iown by a reference to the prices of English . on, as quoted from the circulars of Jevous, 0. ms, & Co. of Liverpool, from 1806 to 1836, iai variations took place so exactly adapted to 1. ;e state of the American market at different 4 tsriods as to show that the controrof prices .as in the hands of the British manufacturers, ..id that the same was used to prostrate, if pos sible, the Iron establishments of the United States. In lS32the minimum price in England .as fixed to meet our tariff; and the minimum . 1 84. 1 to operate on our manufactures like a .ranting disease. One-fourth of all the iron manufactures in Jngland, Wales, and Scoiland, were stopped u.i the 1st of December last, by agreement .mong masters. The quantity produced hav ing brought prices to their lowest stage, this .measure was resorted to for the purpose of el evating them again and probably for another purpose also, viz: to set all their works in ope ration at the fall of our tariff in June, and by putting prices down, to embarrass the American establishments. Mr. Young says: "If tho Com promise Act goes into effect in June, our mar kets will be glutted in July with the present surplus stocks in England. Their works now iymg idle (one fourth of the whole) will be put an operation again, and prices will be kept low until our works are abandoned, after which they will be advanced ad libitum. When arrived at a point at which we could make iron at a mod erate profit, should any be foolish enough to in vest capital again in the manufacture, our kind friends in England will send it sufficiently cheap m ruin them, and thus control our whole sup .ies at their sovereign will and pleasure. The low wages of the laborers in England, and the immense capital invested in largo iron establishments, enable the manufacturers, in that country to produce iron at lower rales than is practicable in the United Slates at present, while the manufacture is yet in its infancy. But there is no doubi of the final and speedy success of ihe business here, if sufficient pro tection is extended to warrant investments in it. Mr. Young declares that if a reasonable protec tion is given by the Government, we sha'l with in ten years send bar iron to England. For many purposes American bar iron is of superi or excellence; and the country possesses ores of a fine qualiLy in the most profuse abundance, with resources of coal both anthracite and bitu minims, which are inexhaustible. It is essential to the defence and security o ihe country, as well as to its independence, that tue iron manufacture should be encouraged and bustaiued at home. In the event of a war the right arm of our strength would be paralysed i we were dependent on foreign nations for sup plies of this indispensable material. This con bideralion is so pressing that if there were no other reasons to be urged to the same point, it would alone be sufficient to justify the Govern tnent in affording any amount of protection that might be necessary for establishing our domes tic iron interests upon a permanent basis. We shall conclude our rerriarks and referen ces on the subject of Mr. Young's communica tion by quoting the following account of an im portant establishment now growing up in our btato merely adding that this gentleman, whose statements we have referred to with con fidence as to their accuracy, has been an iron manufacturer, since 1817 that he was for fuurieen years Superintendent of the West romi foundry, and afterwards President of the Ulster Iron Company of New York situations m which he has acquired all that practical knowledge of his business which personal ex penence for so long a lime must give to an in telligent man: This cominunicaiion is already too long, but 1 beg leave to introduce to your notice an es -tablishment just springing into existence, with which lam connected, viz: the worts of th6 Maryland and No-.v York Iron and Coal Com pany; situated at the foot of Savage mountain, 9 m:les from Cumberland, on the iouio of the ualumorc and Ohio Railroad. On the proper ty ol this company there is every material to make the best quality of bar iron, and in quau tity sufficient to supply such an establishment as Sir John Guest's for one hundred and fifty years. There is sandstone peculiarly adapted for the heanhs of blast furnaces and building purposes. Fire clav of the best and most re fractory character for bricks; coal in veins, from 18 inch, to 2, 3, 4, 5, 8, and 10 feet thick, all .good, ana. one specimen of which was pronoun ced, by David Mushet, (the most eminent prac tical chemist in England) the best he ever an alyzed. There are iron ores, calcareous, argil laceous, and . hematite, yielding from 22 to 65 gif-r rem firon. The company have built two ttst fu.W.i one of '.vhich' was put in blast in November last, and is now producing at the rate of 85 tons of ptg iron per week, of an excellent quality. The) are now erecting a rolling mill of sufficient extent, to manufacture weekly 150 tons of bar iron, including boiler plate, sheet, hoop, band, and railroad iron. The Baltimore and Ohio railroad wjll be finished to Cumber land, and probably to ihe Company's works, in September or October next, by which time, should circumstances permit, the company will put their second blast furnace in operation, and go on to build two more.

Many diseases arise from worms and occasion long and intense suff ering and even death, without their ever being suspected; grown persons are very oftpn afflict ed with them and are doctored for various com plaints, without any benefit; when one dose of these Lozenges would speedily cure them. Mr. J. Murphy, 90 North st. Philadelphia was applied to by a poor woman whose daugh ter, 7 years old' had" been sick for nearly 3 years; her stomach was as large as a grown' person s, her arms and legs so swollen that she could not walk or help herself, although she could eat as much as two laboring men. Two celebrated doctors had exhausted their skill without any benefit: the father had spent all he could raise and was discouraged, he abandon ed all idea of doing anything more for her, and looked to death alone, to take her out of her misery. Mr. Murnhv believing it a case of worms, gave her a box of Sherman's Lozenges, and in two days she returned with joy beaming in her eyes, and said the Lozenges had saved her child's life. The first dose brought away nearly a pint of worms in one living mass, she afterwards counted over 800 that were discharg ed, besides the mass which she could not -.omit. 1 ho child was morally eaten up with them anoilu-r living witness of tho almost mir aculous efficacy of Sherman's Lozenges.
