Or THE RESOURCES of the Red Mountain Iron
Works in Alabama, the Elyton Herald writes as
follows: 1--WE recently visited Red Mountain in
company with two gentlemen connected with
| extensive iron works near Pittsburg, Pa, who
were astonished at the immense heaps of pure
virgin iron ore contained in the vein worked a
short time during the war. They said that
upon their return home, if they reported the
| facts as to the quantity and quality of the iron
ore they had seen they would be accused Of
Munchausenism The vein examined lies in
the neighborhood Of ElytOn, and extends in an
unbroken link some eighteen miles, being from
fifteen to eighteen feet thick, its depth having
not as yet been tested. The ore, lying imme-
diately on the surface, can be obtained with
such ease, that two men are able to supply q
furnace running tons of metal daily. This
vein, we believe, extends on in broken links
| over one hundred miles.
PROFESSOR GOODWIN SMITH has written q
letter on the prevalence of betting on horse
races among all classes Of Englishmen. He
declares that on the approach of the Derby
| 'the whole kingdom becomes gambling table,
at which men who never saw horse race, who
would not know HERMIT from hack, and even
women and boys, hasten to taste the vile de-
light of gambling, often to their emoraliza-
ton, sometimes to their ruin" The Profess
sor forcibly remarks that "this is horse racing
no longer; it is q gigantic system, or rather
frenzy, Of national gambling.
TRs NATo1rocHEs (La.) Times, is response
BILE for the following: "The latest opinion in
regard to voters furnished us by our special,
who sent note to the Attorney-General. 1t is
settled that all persons who held State or Ju-
dicial Office before the war, and afterward be-
came quartermaster in the Confederate army,
can register. Grounds: After careful examina-
ton Of the rebel archives, there can be found
no instance in which this class Of men ever
rendered any aid, comfort, or sympathy to the
Confederate army"

words is tenaciously as they hold to the claim
that Captsin Coles invented the monitor; as
pertinactously as they persist in spelling good
broadside iron-clads BY perching turret on
top of high deck with protected sides, with
out, after all, producing monitor. -
g., B. BUCKLEY. Esq, writes to the States
Gasssse that the iron works in Burnett county
Texas, are completed, and that smelling has
commenced. The company, which is composed
Of citizens ofth county, intend to cast stoves

One Of the new inventions Of the day Is Q
plan Of drying soaked cotton in the bale with :
out unpaehing. 1t il done by "superhested
steam, without PRESSURE" and it is said that
. soaked bale weighing over 1000 pounds was,
by .ais process, reduced to little over 400
pounds. It is also said that cotton dried in
this way is superior to that dried in any other
mode, being more soft and silky. company
st New Orleans is about to build floating
dryer, that can be transported to the wrecks of
cotton vessels and dry the bales at the places
where they may be taken from the water.
TIE CUMBERLAND UH1vrRs1TY, at Lebanon,
Tennessee, is making noble efforts to rise to
that high position Of excellence which it had
STAINED before the war. We notice among the
Faculty the name Of distinguished ex-Confsd-
crate, Lieutenant General A. P. STEWART, as
Professor Of Mathematics. It win be remem-
bersd that General STEWART was for long
.ims Professor Of Mathematics in West Point
Military Academy. His connection with the
Cumberland University cannot fail to add to the
reputation it already enjoys as an institution
among the very first in the country.
