WE IRON TRADE.

From tie Report of the Iron Dealers Association.
The intelligence from Europe this week does
not materially change the aspect of the Iron
market either there or here. Welsh rails have
advanced 5s. to 10s., and their merchant bar
mills are more active. The past depression in
the iron trade has served to attract from many
a more earnest attention to American iron,
which has advanced in price, in advance of
any foreign encouragement, under the stimu-
lus of reyiving trade, the recommencement of
activity in manufactures of wares, and cheer
ing confidence infused throughout the country,
especially in the West, by generally heavy
crops of all the principal products of the soil.
The present activity of the merchant and rail-
way bar mills in our country is unprecedented
during a state of the British manufacture sim
lar 10 that now experienced there. Through
various sources we are assured there was an
underselling up to the latest date, los. and
even 20s. below the prices fixed at tquarter day
The reported advance at liverpool of 5s. TO
los. was undoubtedly nominal as a general
thing, while only few of the best brands for
special purposes, command quotation prices
From Birmingham We learn that orders for
wares are not very satisfactory, and we may
say of all the iron manufacturers, save as
above, and ofrailway bars anG implements OF
war, that they are in depressed state. Amer
lean hardware manufacture are extending
under the reviving influence of trade, and there
are by the state of Western crops, which can
not otherwise than create corresponding de-
mand for utensils, building and miscellaneous
hardware. Transactions for the past week are
mostly the consumations of previous negoti-
ations-the 4th interfering with trade. Sales
of Pig were 1915 tons, at quotations, as per
brand $25 to S26, for Mol, $685. to S25 for No.
2. from SO to q for Forge. American Mer-
chant Bars are in excessive demand, and or
ders have been declined at the advance OF 50
above previous quotations Sales for the week
exceed $50 tons. Juniata Roads are firm and
in fair demand at 500 to SlG5, sales, 40 tons
Several heavy contracts for cast Water and
Gas Pipes were made, but terms have not
transpired. We quote as before, varied accor-
ding to rand:-Foundry Pig $25 to S28; Forge
S23 to 25; Car Wheel Pig $50 to S35i for
Maleable Castings S35to S38; Charcoal Blooms
$40 to S75; Cinder do $40 to $50; Gas and

THE NEWS.

There are no additional news Of importance
from the Crimea, since our last issue, in which
We recorded the defeat of the Allies, and their
loss of five thousand men. The arrival of the
Pacific only corroborates the report.
Notwithstanding this check, the investing
army keep in good spirits and do not permit
their repulse to stay the progress of the siege.
Lord Raglan is dangerously i'll, and it was re-
ported had asked to be recalled, but Lord
Palmerston denied that the report was true
Sir George Brown is also on the sick list
Rumors of battle on the Chernaya and else
where had caused some distraction to specu-
lators, but were untrue. There is no imme-
diate Indication of further operations on the
Sea of Azoff or IN the Baltic.
Administrative Reform keeps its ground in
England. At a meeting for this object held at
Drury Lane Theatre Mr.. Charles Dickens de-
livered an address which was much applaudsd.
Mr.. Peabody gave a grand banquet to Mr..
Fillmore in London. Capitalists are exercised
respecting the probable amount and condi-
tions of the new French loan. Austria con-
tinues to disband her army. Elsewhere in Eu-
rope everything is dull.

"nIsSOLUTI0N or THE UNIoN u

Governor johnson, of Georgia, the Loco
to the Office he now holds, has written a letter
to Col. Lennox, in which he declares what
course he shall pursue in case Kansas is refu-
sed admission to the Union as Slave State.
In that event, Mr.. Johnson would promptly act
with a view to dissolve the Union. He says
elf Kansas should be thus rejected, would
feel bound TO take such steps as would elicit
the action of the sovereignty of the State in
execution of the Georgia Platform. Indeed
l shall bring the whole subject before the next
Legislature, and recommend to them to pro-
vide for the calling of State Convention in
the event of such rejection, to determine the
time and mode of the disruption of every tie
that binds her to the Union

EXHIBITION.

The annual Exhibition of the pupils of the
aClearfield Institute,' - came off on Thursday
evening last, on the green in front of the Town
Hall, which was brilliantly illuminated. We
have seldom witnessed spectacle of the char
acter, more interesting, or which passed off
more harmoniously. The blaze of light, the
flowers and evergreens, the music of the band,
and the throng of people all cOnspired to rem
der the scene highly beautiful. One could al
most imagine he was in fairy land
The students acquitted themselves with great
credit, and evinced considerable improvement
since the close of the preceding session. Eve
II person appeared to be well pleased with the
exercises, and accorded TO the performers
their full need of praise.

THE LOCOMOTIVE TELEGRAPH.-Th Flor
ence correspondent of the Newark ,AdUertiSer
says: y second successful trial Of BOnnelli's
Locomotive Electric Telegraph has been made
on the Turin Railway, with the concurrence
of the Ministers of State and the diplomatic
Representatives of France and England. Two
trains traversing a five mile track exchanged
communications until all parties were fully
satisfied. The correspondence with the sta
tions was equally satisfactory and orders to
ss stop and to * proceed were obeyed as by
volition. Morse's apparatus, reduced to the
dimensions Of coat pocket, including paper,
&C., was used on this occasion. The simpli-
city of the invention is amusing. Two wires
running from the little pocket machine thro'
the bottom Of the car, trail on parallel insu
lated iron rods, which are the mediums
Strange that the notion never occurred to the
Yankee nation The inventor, who is the Di-
rector of the Sandman Telegraphs has sub
mitted to the government an expensive pro-
ject for working them, and also for continuing
the submarine line now in use between Ge-
noa and the islands of Corsica and Sardinia,
600 miles,) by way of Malta and other inter-
mediate points, to Constantinople, and the
long Black Sea line; and which viii also be
propounded to the electricians of the thousand
leagued Atlantic.

THE APPROACHING CAMPAIGN.

Orr American friends should remember
that the approaching fall campaign will be one
of no little importance to our county. In ad-
dition to the office of State Senator and Rep
resentative, we have also to elect in our own
county, Sheriff, Treasurer, Commissioners,
District Attorney, and the other minor officers.
Our party should be looking around for
good substantial men to fill these Offices. With
a ticket composed of men who are honest and
capable, we can easily carry the county. The
rapidity with which our organization has in
creased throughout the county since last fall,
places our success beyond doubt. Let the
members of the Executive Committee in the
different townships be up and doing, and take
the proper measures to secure the formation
of good ticket.

THE NEW YORK LIQUOR LAw.-According
to the Herald, the new liquor law does not ap-
pear to have effected much towards suppress
ing the traffic in Intoxicating drinks in the CT
ty. The public houses carry on their business
as quietly and as proftably as ever, and no one
seems disposed to interfere with them. Thus
far not single complaint has been entered be-
fore any of the police magistrates for violation
of the statue, nor has any seizure of liquor ta-
ken place. The Carson Leaguers have either
abandoned the field or are holding back for a
grand coup d d'etat upon some OF the top-sawyers
of the liquor interest. There is one case of vi
olation of the law for selling liquor on the 4th
inst, pending in the Marine Court, but the
Judges and the lawyers find great difficulty in
arriving at determination as TO the powers
and requirements of the various judicial func-
tionaries under the act. The police reports de-
tail about the usual number of cases Of arrests
for drunkenness, Which is suggestive at once
OF an active trade in imported liquors, the vi
GLANCE of the police, and the utter failure Of
the excise law to suppress the vice of immod-
crate drinking. We have accounts of the op-
erations of the law from various parts of the
State. In Rochester, it is said, the bar-rooms
exhibit no signs of anything stronger than wa
ter, and no instances of violation of the law
had been heard Of. In Buffalo and Albany but
little difference is made, dealers selling as usu-
al. Prosecutions have been commenced against
several hotel keepers at Saratoga. The dealers
at Seneca Falls submitted to the law by re-
moving from their bars and shops all intoxica-
ting liquor. In Schenectady the law was also
observed. At Utica most of the retail shops
were closed. At Troy the trade continued as
usual, but no arrests had been made. AT SYRIA
cuse many of the dealers have sold off their
stocks at auction. AS much as $50, 900 worth
of liquor was thus disposed of on the I'd and
Sd insts. The Mayor of Albany, in his direc-
tions to the police force, remarks. that sswhen
a policeman volunteers to act as complainant,
informer or public prosecutor under the act,
it win be regarded as prima JGcie neglect of
duties now required by law,'' and he strongly
cautions them not to run any risk of pecuiary
liability by making seizures.

TO SUBSCRIBERS.

This, the fiftieth number, closes the first
volume of the Journal, and with it expires the
term of about six hundred Subscriptions
Those of our friends who see proper to con-
tinue it, can send us 81 so during the next
three months, or 81 during the remainder of
the year. Those who wish it discontinued,
will give notice to their Post Master, whose
duty it is to inform US, postage-free.
1t is now more than a year since our paper
was first established, and notwithstanding the
numerous predictions of the failure Of the en-
terprize which were then made, it has lived
and fourished, and from all appearances, viii
{. still live,'' for some time to come. We have
endeavored to print good county paper how
far we have succeeded our readers must de-
termine. We have been bold, fearless, and
free, in the declaration of our opinions and
the support of our principles, and while, doubt
less, we have made some friends, We have also
made many enemies. 1t is impossible TO
please ali, and none but fool would attempt
it. As our course has been for the past year,
so it will be for the future. Our readers have
had fair trial, and those who see proper to
continue their support can do SO, while we
will Quarrel with no man who may resolve to
do otherwise.
We intend to make some improvements On
the next volume, and will cndeavor, if possi-
Bile, to print better paper than We have ever
done before The first number viii be issued
on "Wednesday the lst of August.
