Soon after, Maj. .-Gen, Fremont, with
Blenker's Division arrived and assumed
command. The "Blenkers.'' as we soon
learned TO call them, had started, three or
four weeks before, from the vicinity Of War
renton. They were great while trayell-
ing the distance. Some said the,s had
been lost; others that they had no definite
orders and the newspapers stated that
Gen. Rosecrans had gone from Wheeling
and hunted them up. We never did learn
where they had been or by what Hute
they reached Franklin. We REMEMBER
very distinctly, that the gallina cious. tribe
disappeared suddenly after their arrival,
and so long as the sevine family had a.
representative in that viginity, the crack
of a musket was followed at a very short
interval by the squal of an unfortunate,
who didn't understand belligerant rights
We all had the greatest confidence in
General Fremont. We had read great

In THAT position we remained until night,
when orders came to be ready to march at

not ready, but because orders were issued

IRON WoRKs,-The manufacture of iron in
the United States may, be divided into three
departments-frs the blast furnaces using
anthracite coal, charcoal, raw or cooked blum
nous coal; second, bloomeries or mountain
FORCES, which turn ore or cast iron into blooms
or malleable iron; and third, rolling mills
converting these into bar, rod, sheet and nail
plate iron, and into rails. In 1857 the works
of these kinds amounted to about 1,13I,
namely; l2l anthracite furnaces, 500 char
coal and coke furnaces, 300 FORCES, and 210
rolling mills; and the entire production of
iron was about $4,000 tons-a decrease up
on the previous year of 1926 tons; for in
1856 the total domestic product of pig and of
rolled and hammered iron was $50 ,235 tons.
In 1859 there were only eight states of the
union destitute of iron works-Mississippi
Louisiana, Florida, Texas, Iowa, Minnesota,
California and Oregon. The remaining TWEEN
ty five were employing $50 furnaces, 3S9
forges, 2l0 rolling mills; in all, l ,l59, pro-
ducng $4,000 tons-an increase in two years
OF twenty eight works end 81 900 tons of IRON
In 1886 the Pennsylvania iron-works produce
ed 243,4S4 tons of anthracite iron; in 1857
237,3l8 tons; in 1858 $4,000 tons; and in
1853 2S6,332 tons. To this may be added
the production of charcoal iron, amounting to
$500 tons. The fall in the manufacture in
1858 was caused by the crisis of the previous
year, produced by over-specuation in the
west. The quantity of iron of all kinds, used
in every form of manufacture in the United
States, was calculated in 1856 to be ,33O.54S
tons. Of this quantity, S17, 1856 tons were
rolled and Hammered iron, 29S, 275 tons of
which were imported, the remaining 5l9 ,08I
tons being domestic produce. The domestic
pig iron consumed in the same year was 337 q,
l64 tons, and Of foreign G,403.
In 1853 there was marked increase in the
production of Pennsylvania rolling mills !;
large orders were. received for rails from the
south and west. The railroads in those parts
of the union had originally been mainly con-
structed OF imported iron, of cheap and infe-
rsr quality, which had very soon become I'M
tit for use, and it was discovered to be better
policy to pay higher price for more durable
iron. The larger rolling mills for railway iron
in Pennsylvania are the Cambrian mills, at
Johnstown; the Phoenix iron company, at
Ph@niKville; the Montour mills, at Danville;
the Lackawanna mills, at Scranton; and the
Rough and Ready, at Danville The produc-
ton of rails in 1859 was lO4, $50 tons in 1858
65,500 tons; in 1857 10000 tons; in 1856,
10000 tons. During the latter part of 1857
the mills were wholly or partially closed. The
activity of the iron manufacture in Pennsvl-
vania continued during the first part of 1860,
but since October in that year it has of course
experienced a severe check. Many of the
mills that had stopped work through the Sc
cession movement have again resumed active
operations, especially those devoted to the
rolling of plates. The demand upon them for
government on.plated vessels has been much
greater than the capacity for such mills to
supply.

from my humble bed to keep from drowning,
I've lost my usual serenity.
Our camp is on the site Of the battle, and
one is as like to sleep over dead rebel as not.
The graves are very housekeeping within
two feet of a dead rebel might in some sensi-
tive person awaken unpleasant sensation.
But death in all forms, as seen by soldiers, is
apt to smother all finer feelings for the time,
at least. Soldering is undoubtedly roughen-
ing and demoralizing. 1t is sad to contem-
plate-our army are initiating the British in
the early days of our country; in this, we
are using churches for stables. Where once
was heard Gods holy word by a peaceful,
happy people, can now be heard the neighs
and brays of horses and mules, and oaths of
teamsters, and heard, too, by the same peo-
pie, but not now happy or peaceful.
To-day we heard, for the first time definite
ly, the news Of our repulse and disaster at
Fredericksburg. never before witnessed so
much excitement and feeling at the reception
of news in the army. Ii is an important re-
suit. Europe, ready to interfere, may do so
now. Well, well the southern and western
armies must accomplish what is done at all.

New JERSEY DEMoCRATs.-At gathering
of some of the New Jersey democrats, held at
Fort Lee, in Bergen county, on the 8th inst,
apparently to confer as to the ''policy" of the
party the most atrocious sentiments were ex-
pressed by prominent gentlemen present. Ex-
governor Price,. in the course of a most in.
hammatory speech, argued that the Union is
broken, and that the states 'fall back into the
original elements the same as before the CON
stitution was adopted. Wherefrom he con-
cluded that it is only in the exercise of state
rights the Union can be restored, and added
that the people of New Jersey were willing to
say to the southern states-tO whom they were
bound in heart and feeling-they were willing
to say to them: ''Comc back; you shall have
all the guarantees you had before, and if you
want more for the institutions in your respect
i've states, you shall have them.'
Thomas Dunn English, member elect of
the state legislature, went even further than
Gov. Price, concluding a speech of great viO-
lence by a savage appeal for blood, and a
threat of civil war at the north We quote
''From the egg of usurpation sprang the ca
glet of tyranny; the egg must be crushed; the
eaglet must be strangled. In the wine glass
before him he saw nothing but blood. If this
war on the south continued much longer, he
did not hesitate to say we would have war at
the north-at our own hearthstones. If the
administration would not heed the lessons of
the late elections-if they would persist in the
violation of states and popular rights-the
people would seek a remedy in the constitu-
ton but, if that should fail, they would turn
upon them the mouths of their cannon and the
points of their sabres. Loud and prolonged
applause.

MUSICAL PRoDIGY.-Platreaux, a French
boy, apprenticed to one berwick, turner,
and bearing an excellent character, has re-
Gently made sensation in the courts and mu-
steal circles of France. He was brought into
court for stealing an organ, deposited by
Piedmontese stroller in the passage of the
house. The culprit's defence was that he
could not resist the desire of borrowing it to
make music with it.
Dervlch, the turner, attested in evidence,
that the boys determined passion for music
broke out in every conceivable form. Pla-
treux could remember, said the master, and
he could sing every tune he ever heard
saved up all his sous to buy fageoet or
pipe, or any toy he could get sound out of
and failing these, play at whistling to the
leg of a table or chair, or other make-believe
substitute lying about in the turner's shop.
He had secretly possessed himself of the IL
resistible organ; and when the neighbors
complained of the noise coming out of the
garnet in the fifth story after 8 o'clock at
uight, he had covered it Che owned in his de-
fense) with quilt, so as to stifie the sound;
not so thoroughly though, but that the
Piedmontese, on returning and finding his
treasure gone, was directed by scraps of a
known tuue, to the place where the boy was
enjoying himself.
The magistrate, on the strength of the tes-
timony artlessly given by the turner, the
Piedmontese and the offender, acquitted the
boy Of any intention to steal. Should the
name of Platreux ever become famous in
music, here is a tale to range with those of
the pilfered candle by which Sebastian Bach
sat up to copy Buxtehude's figures and of
the harpischord clandestinely studied by Arne
In the top story of the upholsterer's warehouse
in Covent Garden, and the thousand other de-
vices of strong propensity under difficulties:
