New AND IMPORTANT Discovery IN
TIE MANUFACTURE OF IRoN.-The Pitts
burgh Post has letter giving an ac-
count of a discovery made by young
man by the name of Adams, the Assist
ant Manager Of the Brady's Bend Iron
Works, in Clarion county, in the manu-
facture Of railroad and merchant bars
from Coke metal. By the old method
the rails were made ofcharcoal pig, and
would crack very much and break with
one or two blows. BY Adams process
iron can be made from eight 10 ten DOL
lars per ton lower, and Of superior
quality. The process is not mentioned,
but the quality Of iron produced is spo-
ken of. The writer Of the letter was
shown a rail that had been put to the
seVerest test, by putting it, while hot, in
to cold water; after which they tried to
break it with sledge hammer weighing
80 pounds. Forty blows were given by
six men alternately, and they could not
even crack it. The charcoal iron of the
company costs from 18 to 22 dollars per
ton, their "Coke metal" costs only from
3 to 4 dollars per ton. The discovery
mas caused quite an excitement among
he workmen, for they were under the.
that the works would have to
oe suspended on account Of the low
price Of iron.

c-.-." TrtuuPhans-WoeA Elected.

Judge Wood, tne Loco-AoolI''o"
candidate is elected GOvernoro OF Ohio.
We have not full returns, but suffi-
cient TO show that his majority will
Be large. This result has been
brought about by coalition OF the
Locos and Free Soilers. There is
no disputing this; the returns from
Free Soil counties show it. Cues
tions OF State policy, as between the
Wings and Locos, had little to do
with the election for Governor in
counties where the Free Soil vote is
considerable. Judge Mum by keep
ing his abolition notions to himself,
and leaving the public in ignorance
of his present views in regard to hard
money, has succeeded. With men,
bers Of the Legislature if is different;
elected for small districts when their
views must be generally understood,
the Wings have gained handsomely.

The LexIsIatnre.

The State Journal Of Saturday
says:
HousE.-We will publish list OF
members elect on both sides in our
next. We now claim 35 Wings,
and think there will be SO Locolocos,
and A special Free Sellers.
SENATE, the same as before re.
ported, Is Wings, Is Locos, and Ran
dali and Sutliff.
II the above shall prove correct
there is a Wing gain Of six in the
House, and we lose nothing in the
Senate. The Statesman of Friday
evening claims one from Dark and
Shelby, but despatch to the State
Journal says Lennox, Whig, has ff-
teen majority. The Wing candidate
for Representative is elected by a
small majority in Jefferson, and the
Statesman threatens to contest it,
The Wings gain in Jefferson, Frank
lin, Gallia and Jackson, Coshocton,
Guernsey, Cuyahoga, Clinton, Bel
mont, and Summit. They lose in
Licking, Lucas and Henry, and Nor
gan. We shall publish correct Ia
bic of the members ofthe Legislature
next week. The Cincinnati Enquirer
Noco) says:
THE LEGIsLATURE.-We give the
fable, made out by the Statesman, OF
the returns, as far as heard from, TO
the Legislature, with the explana-
tion OF that paper. We know of
nothing to persuade US TO alter Col.
Medary's figures. The Free Sellers
evidently hold the balance Of power.
The Wings OF themselves are no bet
ter off than the Democrats by them
selves. Our impression, however, is
that a majority of the Free Soilers
incline more from sympathy and poll
cy to the Wings than TO the Demo
Gratis.
So they incline to the Wings suffi-
cent to enable them to elect Thos.
Ewing TO the Senate, we shall think
their sympathy worth having.

PennrxIrnuin RIecfian.

The Pittsburgh Chronicle Of the
llth says of the election in Pennsyl-
vania:
We have not yet received any,
thing like satifactory accounts, upon
which to form a tolerably correct
conclusion; but enough has been re-
ceived to justify US in stating that
the Democrats have elected their en-
tire State ticket, by from Ten Thou
sand to Thirteen Thousand majori-
ty; Thirteen, or perhaps Fourteen
members of Congress, beside ma
jority Of from Sixteen to Seventeen
in the Legislature. this secures the
Democrats a United States Senator,
for six years, from the Fourth OF
March next, when Senator Stur-
geon's terms expires.
Throughout the entire State, aPa-
thy hung heavily upon the rank and
file OF the parties, and prevented even
a decent turn out at the polls.
