IRON SMELLING IN CHICAGO.
On the 1st Of Jauuary, 1862, there were in
the three States Of Illinois, Wisconsin, and
lows, over 4,so0 miles Of railway in opera
tion, and over s, 800 miles under construction,
making over s, 600 miles, which required, and
will require, 738, 600 tons Of railroad iron;
and to maintain these lines, requires IN an
nua1 addition Of new iron equal to 46, 900
tons. or this vast amount, Chicago ought,
from our geographical position, to be the
principal distributing point; and while
many Of the rails may be here re-rolled, yet,
not pound of the new iron incorporated is
produced In opr midst. This j. but one item,
hut a large one, Of the annual consumption
of this a1i important metal In the North.

It ia tritc maxim In political economy,
that no community is rich, the mass ofwhose
people are engaged In single pursult Diver
Of products make communities rich and
prosperous. The profits Of this industry and
interchange are retained at home, instead Of
going to the carriers at distant points. Pros
p,rous as We deem ourselves, as being the
recipients Of 80 much corn, and beef, and
pork, the day will come when the handling
Of these products will not support our large
aud increasing population What Chicago
requires Is m increase in manufactures, and
particularly in those Of iron, The question
is asked, can it be done! And this Is the
question which We propose to answer. T..

E~ Rafael 0rtega, a Spanish gentleman
residing in Morrisonia, New York, recently
appeared before New York city justice, and
preferred complaint against three men,
known as George Hill, c. ShafIer and George
Andrews, whom he charges with keeping and
maintaining a gambling house on the second
floor Of premises No. 2ss Broadway, where
money is lost and won at the game Of 'aro."
Mr.. Ortega, in his affidavit, further swears
that between the first day Of February and
the Inst day Of December, 1868, he lost
in that house by betting on the game Of
"taro'' the sum Of $eo, 900 and upwards. On
this Complaint the magistrate issued his war
rant for the arrest of Hill, Shaf1er and An.
drews.

Tic immediate demand of the spring cam

quick, strong blows at the very vitals Of the
rebellion. We have been fighting now near

It will thus be seen that, SO iar as relates to
The supply Of ore, Chicago is In closer pro1-
unity tllan any Of the iron centers above emu
mcrated, and that the discrimination In her

As every bar Of pig metal run ont would ba

Increased by tho added freights respectively
