Iron Trade and Manufactures.

We copy from Northern paper of high character
and accurate information an interesting article upon
this subject. If its statements true and think
there can be no doubt of their truth, North Carolina
may confidently expect from her iron mines quite as
great benefits as are now anticipated from the copper
and coal depsoites.
There is scarcely State in the Union whose fac-
ties fol- manufacturing iron surpass those of North
Carolina. We have an abundant supply of ore of
good quallty-we have iron and coal deposites side
by side, and both easy of access-and we have rail-
roads in progress and projected which will require vast
quantities OF iron, and supply work for many furna-
ces and torges for many years 10 come. Why should
not manufacture
There is no reason in the world why we should
not at once take advantage of our facilities and 20 to
work, except that we too lazy and need little
infusion of Yankee enterprise. We understand, IN
deed that by the outlay of little capital, iron works
might be put in operation and supply the material for
our own Western Rail Road in less than year. We
have no hope of such result, however. Our citi.
zens are slow TO move, and the enterprise and capital
will scarcely be forthcoming in time to secure an OBJ.
ject 90 desirable. But we do hope that by the time
that road is finished we shall have the means and the
aCaH to go to work, make our own Rail Road ron our
own cutlery. and our own implements of husbandry,
&c. These things be done, ought to be DONE and
we hope will be done. by our oaca people.
