A new Invention.

The following article is from paper com
municated 10 the August number of the North
ern Light, and is of interest to our iron makers.
A New mode of making Malleable Iron direct
from the Ore at one proceSS..-Ihls is claimed
as the invention of person named Clay, and
is said to have been successfully adopted in
one of the Scotch Iron Works.-A mixture of
dry hematiie, or other rich iron ore, is ground
up fine with about four-ienihs of its weight of
small coal this mixture is allowed to pass
gradually through hopper to an oven adjoin-
ing, and forming part Of species OF pudding
furnace, into which given quantity Is drawn
at stated times, when thoroughly and uniformly
heated. The charge is then puddled in the
usual manner. bu, with less labor than when
working plate iron, and about an hour and a
half the iron is produced in maleable state,
fit for shinglng and rolling iron bars. After
another process of filling and rolling again,
malleable iron bars are produced, OF quality
(as was stated by competent auihorty,) supe-
rior TO the sable bolts or best iron usually made
by the long and expensive process Of calcining
the ore, smelling in the blast-furnace, and re-
fning the pig iron-and the saving of fuel is
necessarily very great. The iron was stated
also TO be capable Of being converted into steel
of superior qualify, and when worked by Mr..
Heaih's plan Of uniting manganese in the pro-
cess, cast steel was produced which possessed
the properly of welding or uniting 10 iron; and
in consequence, all the cutlery which was for
merly made Of sheet steel is now made of cast
steel.
Should this discovery be fully confirmed in
ali particulars, England, IN consequence Of her
immense beds of unopened h@malie, would be
rendered Independent Of Sweden.

The principles Hpon which the American
Bible S0eiey are founded, and all auxiliary TO
II. are ol The most liberal and catholic nature
They form broad platform upon whieh all the
friends Of the Bible may act in concert While
each denomination may preserve It's owR dis
rinctye form and faith, ii can freely labor with
all others that hold the common charter Of the
Christians hope. The great protestant princi-
pie is the bond Of union" The Blble-ihe
whole Bible, and nothing bat the Bible" The
Bible, wiiho1t note or comment, in the hands
.l all the miilious OF The tribes Of eaNh, is the
motto OF our cause.
Some have called in question the prepriety
ef The course which The friends Of the Bible
cause have taken. Let the Bible, say they,
find lis way among The mass Of mankind, ac-
cordng TO, The law Of distribution which obtains
in other cases-lhai is, let il follow the demand
whoever wants il, lei Them procure it. Now
this objection might as well he urged against
the aggressive action Of The Church in the form
of missionary operation, and with equal justice.

different in itself, or il there were any Thing
else that could supply lis place il, in short, il

Some of the Effects Of the Tariff.

The Georgia Journal of The 25th ult. gives
the following notice of the practical effects of
the Tariff. This plain statement Of facts Is
worth more than dozen columns of window
speculalions and day-dreams of demagogues:
At retail, in this place, uery good COFFEE is
selling at ten pounds for one dollar, and SUGAR
eleuen pounds for one dollar!
No. more than eighteen months ago, COFFEE
was selling foe pounds tor dollar, and SUGAR
slr pounds for dollar,
In the consumption Of these two articles, we
ask The Loco-Focos wherein does the Wing
Tariff injure the people
LOAF SUGAR, that used TO sell in this place
at 25 cents pound, can now be bought a, Ia
cents pound
Does the Tariff prove disadvanta seous here!
In the same proportion is the reduction OF
price ON other necessaries. Now, when we
compare the effects of The Wing Tariff with
the effects of the Tariff when Van Buren, was
President, on which side is the result most ia
yorable!
These are facts for the people! They all
know. them to be SO! And one fact, with them,
should outweigh an hundred assertions tha.
cannot be proven true.

Business.

A gentleman called yesterday morning a, the
counting house of one of the iron merchants of
this city, TO purchase fifty tons Of pig iron. In
the course of the negotiation, the merchant was
led to inquire TO what purpose the iron was to
be applied.
"To make weights for Yankee clocks"
"Why what can you do with SO many clocks?"
"They are shipped to England"
Think of that! Fifty tons of iron for clock
weights, each clock requiring, probably, less
than FIVE pounds. We saw it stated some time
since in an English paper, that the clocks were
being introduced in the manufacturing districts
of Great Britain, and amos, every workman
was becoming the owner of them.

4 lIonsfer.-DreldfnI.

An English paper states, that as gentleman
was travelling alDhg The road near ColdOrook,
he had his attention attracted TO The screams
Of child in The care Of trampihg woman,
who had two other children totally blind) also
with her The cries Of The child were 80 dis
uessihg, ihai he insisted ON knowing the cause
---bui moi getting a satisfactory answer he
forcibly removed bahdags from its eyes,
when, horrid to relate, he found them encased
with two small perforated shells, in which
were two live black beetles, for The purpose Of
destroying the sight. The woman was instant
ly seized and given into custody, and, a, the
magistrates meeting at Eton, committed for
trial What was The motive of this monster
in human form for destroying the sight Of these
poor children is not slated---but II was doubt
less for the purpose Of working upon the SYM
pathy Of the public. to induce the unwary 10
bestOw aims.

Mr.. Edward Colahan, of Port Carbon, was
riding home from Pousville, on the night OF Sa-
turday week between l | and IL O'Clock, and
had arrived at the turn in the road Immediately
beyond the Blue Tavern, and not mile from
Portsvlle, when his horse was stopped and he
was dragged from the saddle by two men, who
held pistols a. his head, swearing that they
would "blow his id brains out If he sand a
,Oord" Mr.. c. finding resistance useless, sub
mi,ted, and was robbed Of about twenty-five
dollars. He was then allowed 10 proceed with
out farther molesiaton.

Prosperity OF Cincinnati.

Some idea of the rapid rise of property IN
Cincinnati, may be formed from the following
fact stated in The Enquirer. Forty years ago
the FRS, Presbyterian Society Of that cny
purchased an entire block situated on the COR
ner of Fourth and Walnut streets, for sixteen
dollars. A few days since twenty second
part of the original block, composing 10: of
ninety.nine feet, was rented for eight hundred
and ior.y-one dollars per annum, which at 6
per cent, in,eres, is equal TO value Of $14, OPS.
If The entire block is calculated at the same
rate---and this 90 feet is not more than the
average Of the property---if now in market and
divesled of the improvements made upon it, il
would not be worth less than $3l4,550, or
almost 100000 times its original cost.

Carriers Trial.

Two weeks have now elapsed since the COM
fnencement of this important trial, and the evil
'dence for the prosecution has just been finished
The examination of witnesses on the part of the
Stale, was concluded on Tuesday, when Mr..
Wurts, of Flemiugton, opened the case, in behalf
of the prisoner What time will be occupied in
presenting the testimony for the defence, it is i'm
possible for us to say, but it is not likely that the
Trial will be concluded before the beginning Of
next week.
The testimony against the prisoner is long, and
altogether circumsiantial Parts of it produce
strong if not irresistible impressions of the prs
oners guilt How the jury will view it, howev
er. is difficult to conjecture In our next we hope
10 be allie to announce the termination OF the trial.
and also to give full account of the whole case,
carefully digested from the testimony of all the
Witnesses Such an account, without occupying
much space, will be far more interesting to our
readers, we are sure, than mere copy of the tes-
