Foreign and american Railroad lron.-
The American Rail road Journal, of the
18th ult., says that at least 100000 tons
Of English railroad iron have either been
received or ordered for this country with
in the last twelve months-at cost o.!
about five millions of dollars.
To manufacture this quantity of iron,
would require about Il, 900 workmsn--
and making Inc usual allowance Of FIVE
persons as dependent upon each one, we
have a total population Of Sd, 900 persons,
who have been directly supported by the
production Of this enormous quantity Of
iron. These $4,000 persons in their. turn
give support TO great many thousand
farmers, mechanics and professional men,
who are again enabled to contribute to
each others subsistence.
