The Mineral wealth OF Maryland.

A continued, uniform effort to foster the in
dustry of our own country would in a few years
develop such riches as the world has never known.
The Cumberland (Md) Telegraph informs US
that extensive preparations are in progress in
connexion with the development of the Coal in
terests in that quarter. number of new com
panies have been formed. A tract of coal land,
bought last spring by Mr. Nj. Miller for 300,
was sold short time since for $4,000. Another
coal tract bought by Messrs Percy for $4,000,
was seld by them recently for $4,000.
With proper and uniform protection, the
wealth in our iron mines would be revealed as
abundantly; but at present cars and engines and
rails made of foreign iron, pass over exhaustless
beds of iron ore! At the present moment we are
informed that the rise in the price of British
railroad iron has been so great that many con-
tractors of roads, now in progress, will be ruined.
At present prices the difference against the con-
tractors upon the Cincinnati and St. Louis road,
if the iron were purchased now, would be $780,
600! A writer in the Baltimore American says
=" j have a caution to give our IRON masters.
They must 60 into the manufacture of rails, if
they do it at all, s0h the risk Of haOing the duty on
the British article entirely repealed. An attempt to
do this will be made in Washington this winter
The numerous roads in progress and wanting
iron, will crowd upon Congress to get rid of the
duty. The agent Of the British manufactures
will be at their side helping them"
Is not this deplorable condition of things
And yet dependence upon foreign country for
any staple will forever subject us to such fuctu-
ations. Experiences like this should teach us
that it is not the producer alone who is benefited
by the uniform encouragement to American Ia
Dor. The consumer, who is thus secure in a
regular suppley, participates in the benefits also.

Some of the Anticipated Tricks.

We have had occasion more than once, says
the New York Tribune, to notice the utterly
shameless course which the Sham Democracy
have pursued during the present contest. Can
there be lower deep than that to which the Lo-
cofoco speakers referred to in the following ex-
tract have sunk? We find it in The Detroit Ad-
vertiser
"Locofoco speakers are now traversing this
very county who have told the people within the
last week that Gen.. Scott had dectined-that Penn
sylvania and Ohio have had their Presiden
tial elections, and that Scott has been beaten
Our friends must look out for lies"

Parties I'm Mississippi.

The Columbus Argus, Wing paper published
at Columbus, in the State of Mississippi, gives
the following view of the prospects Of the election
in that State:
Probably our Wing friends abroad would like
to know something of the political feeling in this
State We can tell them that our prospects here
are brighter than they have ever been before, and
that, if General Scott does not carry the State,
our party need never hope to do SO at any future
time. There is probably no State in the Union
in which there is more disatfection in the Demo-
cratic party than this, and the party has no idea
to what extent this disafection prevails"

The New York Tribune remarks, in reference
to the foreign money used in that city and else.
where to defeat Scott and Graham, that
'It is true that Mr.. Belmont is not alone in his
pure democratic" zeal The London Times
shares his aspirations, though not his expendi-
lures. The Manchester Examiner also hopes
that Pierce will be elected; the Phare de New
York puts up the same prayer--in short, the
representatives and organs of monarchica, aris-
tocratic, money lending, monopolizing Europe,
all desire the defeat of Scott and Of the Wings.
They recognize in Pierce "a valuable practical
ally" of many Of their plans and interest, They
look for bis election to hinder tkat startling
growth of America in real power and ndepen-
deuce which has already SO deeply imperlled
their own ability to maintain themselves on the
neeks of the masses at home. They deprecate
with fear and anxiety the triumph OF Scott un-
der the banner Of Protection to American Labor
and Internal improvements, as the beginning o.
career which shall render.tbis Republic greater
more powerful, more gorions, and far more dan
gerous to the thrones, the aristocracies, and th'
monopolies Of the Old World.

The FORGERY ExPosED.-Hon. Mr.. Campbell
not only brands the story with regard to his de-
claratons concerning General Scott forgery,

the obnoxious paragraphs in Mr.. Campbell's let
