We were aware OF The tacl mentioned oy 'ne

The truth is, that, throughout the civilized
world. the present supply of iron is unequal to
the demand The mining and manufacturing oil
iron is moi therefore, likely 10 become unprotlla-
bic. The trade is destined 10 60 forward, and IN

wants of new arts and extended civilization.

Broadmeadow Steel Company are putting up new

,ho unanicp cry of the Wing press The attempt
TO raj Use political capital, by denonnclnS Inc ao-
as the source of "woes unnumneieo

force upon the Tariff politicians. In sp'ie Of
,beir gloomy predictions, The farmers products
\, ~ risen in value, and new manufacturing cs-
,.h,;sbmenls have gone into operation, which re-
or;re workmen to man them. These facts Will
a,elp upon the popular mind, and convince II
that the Democratic policy is The surest safeguard
If the desinies OF all classes. Nature, after all,
is The best physician. Let her laws be carried
ou, freed from the entangling influence OF par
tial and unjust legislation, and every class and
section will ultimately prosper. American skill
and industry, if properly directed, under The
brioht sky and free air of liberal institutions, can
enter into the fair field of competition with the
world. Give all Interests fair play, and no one
Of them will have a right to complain.
We rejoice 10 see that from necessity the
Wings have abandoned their first design OF get
ling up universal panic, TO ihwart Democra-
tic administration. Their friends, the manulac-
,urers. found il was losing business TO make
so great sacrifice for party. The destruction
OF confidence might be sport 10 the Wing party,
INT was death 10 the factories. The manufac,u-
rers, therefore, would not be ruined, and left The
Wing leaders in the midst Of their panic melo-
drama. The facts which we have reced, show
up the himsy fabric of the panic manuiac'n-
rers, and they have resolved, with Roman mag
nanimitu, TO submit TO their tale, which we pre-
dict will be an easy one.
We commend to our readers the following ex-
cellen, article in The Union. The Wing prints
and politicians are really themselves out Of en-
ploymenl. They are in utter need of "prolec-
ton" for their lhwarted schemes against the Ad-
minislralion. "What part will Roscius next en-
act7" The Tariff humbug is nearly exploded:
