THE ICE BUSINESS or THE UNITED
STATES.

In this age Of the world each succeeding generation
employs some means Of increasing the pleasures of
living that were unknown or unused by Its predeccs-
sors. In regard to the subject OF this article Ice, we
cannot say, with correctness, that its use was not
known before the present century; but it is quite ccr
tain that il never came into general in civilized
nations until within very recent period.
The domestic use of ice to n limited extent, is very
ancient. Among the Greeks and Romans various
means used to preserve snow and ice to cool the
drinks: but their methods simple and OF little ac
count in comparison with those of the present day.
By freezing mixtures the ancient Romans cooled their
Tiberian and other wines that the poet Horace SO
graphically describes In some tropical countries par
ticularly in India, several processes OF forming ice
have been known for many centuries; 90 that those
who had this knowledge could with but little trouble
and expense readily prepare ice and enjoy its benes
About the middle of the sixteenth century, the cus.
tom of cooling drink with saltpeter was introduced
into Italy Afterward, the method of increasing the
cold of snow and ice by mixture OF satpeter became
common. In the fore part OF the seventeenth century,
ice.cups were introduced and fruits frozen in l9e were
brought upon the tables. Soon after this the fren'h
began to freeze the juices Of oil savory fruits Tor des
serts.
In this country. ice wa. used for domestic eonsump-
tlOD previous 10 tie present Ctuluil' 81"
fore us referring to the year l79s mentions ihat some
farmers in Maryland and PetnSylv"ma then hao ice-
houses and it is probable that farmers in other sec
tons of the country also had them In course OF time,
the custom of housing in the Winter increased, aud
vet very slowly because it was regarded as luxurious
or at least wa. practiced only by the wealthy But
dnrpe tbe Period Of the last twenty years, we may
safely say that the general consumption Of ice espe-
cay in our American cities and large towns, has m
! creased in rapid ratio annually.
Ice is now considered Of the inexpensive CONF
forts of lfe desirable TO be secured during the warm
months by every family; indeed, it is necessary ari-
ce and one of the most economical for any household
Hence the use of it at the present period in this and
many other cities is general with all who can afford IT,
az the saying is, or in fact with all who properly ap-
preciste its value
In regard to the actual extent of the ice business
throughout the United States at the present time we
have but little reliable information, our facts being
confined TO the Cities of NewYork and Boston and
few other large places. In that part of the Census o
1850 which relates to the occupations OF the free male
population over fifteen years Of age the statistics
of which embraced about half of the free population
above that agel we find the following statement oi

SHAREHOLDERS CosvEsrIos.-There will be- con-
vention of the shareholders and others Of the Eastern
Shore of the State of Maryland heh in Cambridge, on
Wednesday next, all the counties except Cecil having
elected delegates. The Cambridge Herald, in an
article on the subject says:
Everybody the Shore, and, in fact, in the State,
is Interested in this move which is to adopt some plan
for the better securing of slave property in this secon
well in the State. The whole State of Maryland
ia being overrun with abotouis.s uis.s-particularly this
Shore, as recent developments have proved. There
are great many in Dorchester, Somerset aud Wor-
cester Counties in disguise, who constantly per-
suadng slaves away, and providing means for
their escape. We were told by gentleman from
Somerset, few days ago, that there were SO many
abolitionsts in that County il is almost impossible TO
secure a runaway in that community without having
him taken away from yOu.'
The Cecil Democrat says:
Cecil will not be represented her citizens
not 10 be sufficiently Interested to call county meet
