ESCAPES TO THE NoRTH.-It is reliably
estimated that during the past week over
one hundred Jews, principals of substi-
tutes and others, have come to Ridh-
mond from the South, put up at the ho-
tells, and disappeared by the various
underground routes to the North. How
they 60 is only known to themselves and
their agents; but it is true they have
gone, and are still going Ten Jews
left one of the principal hotels on Sun
day morning They were mostly of the
wealthy class, and ten thousand dollars
is frequently rendered for safe passage
to the Potomac. 1t is intimated that
persons in the guise of farmers are their
most successful accomplices. They
come to Richmond with marketing or a
load of forage, and carry ont n load of
blockade-runners concealed in their We
hicles, making a more profitable specu
lation on their outward than their in
ward trip, as all pay, and pay heavily,
too.
Numbers have been overhauled on
their journey through the lines by the
detectives, and are now resting in Cas-
tie Thunder; put more have succeeded
in escaping. 1t is limited, with what
amount of truth we know not, that the
mysterious art Of the embalmer has
been employed in some recent cases of
disappearance, and that several embalm-
ed Jews, neatly encofined, have gone
through the lines en- route to bereaved
relatives in the North.-Richmond Er-

with eighty tons of metal The monld
is set upright in a mammoth pit, over
which are erected two immense cranes,
each having a lifting capacity of for'y
tons, and worked by steam. Everything
being in readiness, the three furnace,
are tapped simultaneously, at twenty-five
minutes past twelve clock, and the inn
mense streams of molten metal were
conveyed by conductors to a reservoir at
the mould, from which it passed into
flask, filling up the space between the in
side of the flask and the outside Of the
core, in the short space of twenty-three
minutes, without the slightest accident
or mistake, under the skillfui and expe-
rienced management of the foreman,
Mr.. Joseph Kaye. The metal having
been thus successfully cast, it will re-
main in this position while cooling, which
process will require about six days, du-
ring all of which time the stream Of cod
water is kept constantly passing through
the chamber When the gun is cooled it
will be elevated from the pit by Il e
heavy cranes above alluded to, and con-
veyed on railway trucks to the turning
lathes, in an adjoining part of Il works,
where it undergoes the finishing prUces
The casting of the heaviest piece {;
ordnance in the United States, if not in
the world, necessarily attracted the al
tention of officers of ordnance, and 9th

present we noticed Major Rodman, the
Inventor of the principle now so success

Assistant Chief Of the Ordnance Bureau;
Captain J. NJ Berrian, Inspector of Ord

Captain Hays, Chief of Ordnance of
Gen. Pleasanton's corps; Lieut.. Rock
we'll, Ordnance officer U. S. Arsenal at
Lawrenceville; Gen. Copeland, Com
mandant at Camp Copeland, together
with many of our own prominent citi-
zenS. There was also present a num-
Der of ladies, who seemed greatly inter-
ested in what they saw.
Previous to the casting of the gun,
Mr. Dubbs, photographer, took two view s
of the interior of the works, including
the visiters, workmen, furnaces, cranes,

GREAT ACHIEVEMENT IN IRON FOUND
ING.-Through the courtesy of the pro-
prietor of the Fort Pitt Works, we were
present to witness to-day, at that estab-
lishment, one of the greatest feats IN
iron founding yet achieved-the casting
of twenty-ineh gun-the largest gun
eUer cast.
Description of the Gun-In order to
convey to our readers some idea of the
magnitude of this undertaking, we will
give statistical description of the gun:

The weight of the solid shot to be
used in this gun is 1000 lbs; and of shell
$50 lbs. The service charge of the gun
will be 100 lbs of mammoth powder
1t will be seen that the entire weight
of the gun, in the rough, will be about
seventy.fre tons When finished it will
weigh about tfftyJfUe tons!
/ Cdsting-This immense piece of ord,
nance was cast upon the Rodman pm
ciple, with hollow core, through which
a stream of cold water is kept constantly
flowing while the metal is being run into
the mould, and also during the coohn:
process. The furnaces required to mel
the metal are three in number, with
fourth, which is used as reserve in cas-
of accident These furnaces were
