The Iron Trade OF the United states-Iss pcsl-
sioE and = rogrcss.

The most important commercial movement
of the day. is probably the great and rapid ad-
vance in the market value of iron and iron ma
nufactures. throughout Great Britain. The i'm
provement was 20 sudden SO UNEXPECTED and
has been carried on with so much vgor that
consumers in al parts OF the world were unpre-
pared for the change. and have in many instan-
ces been put to serious inconvenience. It 10 by
no means extraordinary that iron. or any other
article should command remuneratng prices:
but il is strange that during such demand az
has existed for years past. both in this country
and in Furoro privcs should remain SO much
deprecated, and now. when the railroad
mania has partially subsded. the value Of
the raw material should become SO much en-
HANGED. Nearly all the great railroads in this
country. in the course Of construction. secured
the bulk d rails required before the recent
rise in value. Several Of these COM
panies could have sold their contracts at
handsome profits. The effect, therefore, on
this side Of the Atlantic will not be so
serious as il otherwise would have been. We
shall not, however, be entirely exempt from the
disadvantages arising from high prices. The
time has arrived when we must look more
closely into our estimates Of expenditures in
constructing railroads; and az the cost of iron il
very Important item, it Is possible the increased
and increasing value OF this article may tend ma
teriolly to check the progress OF these improve
ments. Railroads which have been built within
the past four or five years, have purchased their
rails in England, at prices considerably below
the cost Of manufacture. Roads now Ia course
of construction. contracts FOR ironing which
have not been made win cost SO mach more to
complete that the power Of competition will be
very much reduced

the necessity of keeping in motion TO make the
sacrifice as light as possible. kept any of them

cured one of the most remarkable snow storms OF

intermxed with rain, fell during the whole day
Four miles east of U.S. there less rain, and the
snow fell to tile depth of about one foot AtSha-
mokIn it was still deeper. Between that place and
Pottsville, on the mountains, the snow was eigh-
teen inches deep. The roads were rendered al
most impossible by the amount of snow and the
breaking down of trees by the accumulations of
snow on their branches. The cars from Philadel-
phia were about two houIs behind time at Potts
Vile. The passengers took the coaches, butwhen
they arrived at Mount Carmel, 8 miles east OF Sha-
mokin, they refused to go to that place. and re-
NAMED over night at Mount Carmel. The paSsen-
ger train waited at Shamokin until o'clock next
morning, and then came in to take out the passen-
gers from this place for Philadelphia, by the O.
clock train, by which time the passengers who had
remained at Mount Carmel over night, had arrived
in Suamokiu and wee brought to this place by an

day afternoon public meeting of merchants OF
New York was held at the Exchange, in that city,
in response 10 a call previously published, signed
by several hundred merchants, to express their
sentiments relative to the removal Of Mr.. Bronson
from the Office of Collector Of Customs for that
,ort by the national administration. Mr.. G. B.
Lamar presided, and resolutions were adopted de-
claring that as merchants are importing dutiatle
and fee goods to the amount Of two hundred mil
lions Of dollars, and forty millions of revenue are
collected from them by the government they the
merchants, have have right to express their opl-
mons whenever wrong has been inflicted upon
their interest; that change of Collector to be
followed by other minor changes whenever the
Collector may happen to differ with the Secretary
ofthe Treasury upon the question OLA State Canal
policy, or upon slavery anti.slayery, is desruc-
i've ofthe best interests of trade, as well as tyran-
nous and subversiye Of the rights of the States;
that they protest against the interference Of the
Government with ell the Collectors local appoints
menls; that the claim Of the Secretary of the Trea-
sury, which, as they alege, is now set up Tor the
frs, time in tie history Of the government to con-
firm and reject all the Collectors subordinates, Is
in derogation of the Law Of Congress, which vests
the appointments in the Collector alone. and is
act of usurpaion worthy of and tending to desPot-
ism, anil deserving only of the unqualified con-
demnatiou Of all free citizens; that they protest
against the rude. arbitrary and unprecedented re-
mnvaI of Mt Bronson, and that the saerihee Of the
honorable and lucrative place which that gentle
man has made to maintain principle, the honor of
his State. and the rights of his position. demands
the remembrance and gratitude of his county,
while it becomes an illustriousTprecedent and ex-
