IMPROVEMENT IN WORKING IRON. Mr
Horatio Ames, of Falls Village, Conn, who is
extensively engaged in working wrought iron,
has made several improvements in the business,
of great Importance. Noticing the tendency of
iron hars to divide ongitudinally, when exposed
10 heavy pressure, it occurred TO him that by
twisting them, the tendency OF the PARTICLES to
assume parallel arrangement, would be prevent
ed, and the liability to separate obvlated lie
tually performs the work. Tire, tor locomotive
wheels, of which he makes great quantity, is
subjected to this process, which is found to add
greatly to its strength and durability The plan
is equally applicable to the twisting OF rails TOR
railroads Mr. A. has also invented process for
heating or melting from the pig, by which
he makes saving of three dollars per ton. He
has, besides, made improvements in the mode OF
hammering iron.-.Atbany Cultioator.

CALIFORNIA. a writer in the Boston Post,
under the signature OF ]. Parker, states that he
has lust received letter from his brother, IN
California, from which the following is an ex-
tract:
"a state of distress and suffering prevails here
such as the world probably never before saw
People were SO eager to get gold that they only
thought how to get here Thousands upon thou
sands have rushed here, bringing no provisions
with them, trusting wholly for their supplies
from what could be obtained here. There was
none raised here. All rushed to the mines. The
supply brought from abroad'is mostly exhausted,
and hundreds have already died, and thousands
more will die from starvation, and by the hand of
each other. Sickness rages as famine increases
and men have become demons goaded to insanity
by hunger, and if you have any regard for a
brother, for Gods sake ship me some provisions
TO San Francisco soon as possible, or die OF
starvation.
