Under this head the Pittsburgh Gazette no.
tices that the enterprising firm of Messrs Graf,
Bennett & Co., are now erecting Furnace a.
longaide their Rolling Mill, the Clinton, imme-
diately opposite Pittsburgh, on the MOnOnga:
hela side. 1t is t. be in operation by the Isl
of August, will be of large dimensions, IL feet
in the bosh, the stack of boiler iron lined with
fire brick. Its capacity will be 1876 tons of pig
metal per week Coke will be used for smelt
ing purposes The Gazette says
Messrs. Graf, Bennett b Co. are now re.
ceiving by river considerable quantities of ore
from the Iron Mountain in Missouri, besides
large quantities on the way and are also pre-
pairing the coke with which TO smelt
The intenliun is to use Lake Superior, Iron
Mountain and Pilot Knob ores, as well as those
of Canada In addition to these, there is with
in a short distance of the city and accessible
to cheap water transportation, an abundance of
the cheap qualities of ore which can be deliv-
cred to many of the furnaces throughout the
State. After allowing for all contingencies
and drawbacks, pig metal can thus be made
here at the same cost as on the Susquehanna
river, on the line of the Pennsylvania Road, and
in quality equal if not superior.
lhere can DC no ulnleulty III optalhlHB sup
plies of ore The ores from Lake Superior and
Canada can be obtained during the period OF
Lake navigation--say from May TO October
and during that time enough can be had for
six or eight months supply; and as our rivers
are generally open in winter, spring and fall,
sufficient amounts can be had from Missouri to
keep up the regularity Of the supply, to say
nothing of the rich and abundant native ores
which are to be found within a distance of ~
miles.
Much credit is due 10 Messrs. Graf, Bennett,
4 Co. for the public spirit they have evinced
ia leading off in this experiment Should it
succeed, aud we have not the least doubt that
il will, the erection Of furnaces here will be
largely gone into, and our Pittsburgh manu-
laclures will thus eventually make all the pig
metal they may need to use in the fabrication
of their wares

ONE THOUSAND DOLLARS DAMAGES FOR
ALIENATING THE AFFECTIONS OF A WIFE.-lhG
jury in the case of Lucien A. Bowers against
Ira A. Preston, Margaret, his wife, and Aaron
ID. Grifhn--being an action to recover damages
in the sum of SIS, 900 for alternating the aflec-
tions OF the wife of the plaintiff and causing hel
to leave his bed and board, the examination Of
which occupied the Superior Court all last week
yesterday morning returned verdict in ia
vor of Bowers of one thousand dollars This
is probably the only instance on record of a man
commencing and successfully carrying out a
suit to recover damages for the loss Of his wife's
affection - Columbus Statesman
This is very singular case. The parties
are all highly respectable. Mr.. Bowers is an
intelligent man, 81 years of age, and of good
appearance. His wife, about 90 is also intelli.
gent and prepossessing in appearance. They
were married in BeardstOwn, Ill in 1858. 1t
was not love match on the part of Mrs. B.,
who married through persuasion of friends and
earnest wooing They had been married but
a short time when the defendants persuaded
her 10 leave him. She started to Join her
friends in Ohio, was overtaken 10y Bowers, and
consented to stay with him. She again grew
uneasy, and the defendants finally got her away
entirely. The principal difficulty was, as al
legged, that Mr., aud Mrs. b. were not married
in a spiritual sense. The Church and Odd Eel.
lows examined the case, but failing to reconcile
the differences and restore Mrs. b. to Mr. b +,
the latter placed the damages by her loss at
$4,000, The Jury sympathized just 81 900
and M mara
