It so, the American must soon become
the greatest iron market Of the world, as
she will be able to furnish the article
much cheaper thanit can be obtained any
where else.
The subject of railroads is now being
discussed throughout Europe. France
has at least one thousand miles in con-
temptation, and Russia and Austria as
many more; and even the government of
the sublime Porte is beginning TO talk Of
a railroad from some Of the outer ports in
the kingdom to ConstantinOple. When
we recOllect that FIVE wears since we
were obliged 10 send TO Europe for our
locomotives, and that now we can manu-
facture them cheaper and better, both for
ourselves and others, can we doubt that
within ten years from this time, Pcnnsyl-
vahia will furnish to Russia, to France,
and to Austria, not only her locomotives,
but her railroad iron.
Thus, then, the tide of trade will be
completely tnrned, and instead of paying
to Europe interest for money 10 make our
railroads and canals, we shall not only be
able to cancel our State debt, but receive
millions Of European gold and silver in
return for the iron and coal Of our noun
ians. Pennsylvania herself can furnish |
iron sufficient 10 hoop the globe several
times with railroads, and coal in abund- |
ance to ran the engines upon them for
a century at least.
The Philadelphia National Gazette of
the 4lh inst. has all article on the sub
ject of Iron produced by the use OF an
thraciie coal, in which it is stated as con-
elusive evidence Of the practicability and
economy Of its use, that the Crane Iron
Company are about TO erect a second
furnace. 1t is stated as fact, that the |
same number of persons who in a char
coal furnace produce 80 to 80 tons will |
produce in one of the company's furna-
ces worked with anthracite, from 60 TO
10 tons.
We quote the following passage from
the same article the Gazette:
'The iron trade, in all its branches, is
about to receive an impulse such as nev-
er has been felt by any trade whatever
in this or any other country, and we do
not fear to assertthat it will yield an abun.
dant harvest to all who have been epgag-
ed in preparing for it, whether owners OF

canals leading thereto.

May 9, ls41.
'EMy relations with MrVan Buren continued AS
they were throughout my administration, OF the
most friendly nature. They nave, if possible,
been made more cordial, as far as my feelings are
concerned, by the signal ability and steadIness
with which he has steered the vessel of state
through the storm which has of late threatened
it. To think of abandoning him when he is so
nobly performing his duty, would be treaehery to
republican principles.

four: If you drive all bank notes, less than
one hundred dollars from circulation, Wilt not
reduce the value Of all property, and by de-
pressing prices lessen the value of labor? viii
it not ruin the industrious and enterprsing
poor, while it will enrich no one but the rich
and the creditor classes? AS such is the mani
fest effect, will it not put tenfod power In the
hands of bank officers and bank favortes, who,
having the control of capital, and of the de-
mands accumulated in the banks against their
customers, will be enabled to amass estates at
the expense of the industrious and enterprIslng!
Is it not apparent that this war upon the banks
is but pretence to infame popular prejudice,
an effort of political dernagogues to use the
people, regardless of their suferings in elevat-
ing themselves to power! Is there any hope OF
restoring prosperity to the country, but by

The stock of this bank was considered the best in

orphan, unable to manage their little capital the
saving-the hard earnings of beloved husband, or
the amented parent, invested it in the stock of this
bank, hoping to receive the means ofsupport but
no-abuse ofthe Bank was decreed as party mea
sure, the estates of the widow and the orphan
were to be sacrificed to accomplish party end, and
hence the Senator from Pennsylvania, and the Edi-
tor of the Globe, pronounced exparte denunciations
deeply affecting the credit of the Institution and
greatly depressing the value of the estate of the
Bank in which their bread was placed,-wha

Buehanan's speach says:
''There was a bold position taken by Mr.. Buch-
anan which as he was then the only representative
for Pennsylvania, we were proud to see him take.-
1t was that the Bank of the United States had for
feited its charter and that the state should at
I've delivered from it. He said that the Bank had
been guilty of several papabe violations of its char
ter.-that it was at the mercy of the Legislature
that it had pronounced its own doom, and that it
remained for the Legislature to execute the sem
tence.-This we hope it will soon accomplish bya
repeal of the law which the bank on its part has in
effect abrogated by its vioations.-But fthe Legs-
iature should fail to perform its duty, rejoice to
md that Mr. Buchanan holds it to be the duty Of
the Executive to put an end to tho Institution
through the "agency Of the Judicial tribunals. -

Full of perfection and maturity
Thou art the vaunted glory Of the year;
Scarlet and gold and emerald leaves are 'hlne'
Rocks. trees and forests thy rich mantles wear
And all earth sverdures in Thy glores shine,
Yet as the expiring lamp most brightly glo"s,
Or asthe hectic on consumpion's cheek,
So to Thy year thy beauty points the close
Thy added lustre does grim death bespeak--
But even in death thou own'st supremacy,
And may'st example-not example be.
