The Advertiser Of last week comes
bravely to the defence Of the Demo-
cratic election frauds in New York,
attempting to answer some stric-

have not a word TO say. It don't

with equal interest and satisfaction by boys
of every grade from eighteen to eighty. Its
scientific papers, while sufficiently profound
to demand the attention Of the learned, are
yet admirably adapted to the popular
understanding. and designed as much to
diffuse correct information concerning cur
rent scientific discovery as IL could be II II
was the organ OF the ''SOeiety for the Diffu-
sion of Useful knowledge" The great de-
sigI. Of Harper's is to give correct infOrma-
ton and rational amusement to the great
masses of the people. There are few intelli-
gent \ merican families in which Harper's
Magazine would not be an appreciated and
highly-welcOme guest. There is no month
ly Magazine an Intelligent reading family
can less afford to be without. Many Maga-

The people of Vermont are agitated
by a curious question. The next ap-
pOrtiOnment of Members of Congress
is likely To reduce the representation
OF this State from three to two, and
in that event it will be necessary to
redistrict the State. Now the next
session of the Legislature after this
fall will not be held till October, 1872,
a month later than the election for
Congressman in that State. COnse-
quently, if theState be not re-district-
ed at the present session, andits quota
in the House be reduced before 1870, a
special session Will be necessary
That is to be avoided if possible, so it
is proposed to make a conditional re-
adjustment of the Congressional dis
tTicts to 90 into effect only in case the
apIsrtiOnmenf makes it necessary
This proposition is met with the sin
gular objection that to redistrict the
State in advance would only. seem, to
invite the reduction which otherwise
might not be made.

Pittsburg, Pa, an oil well of Z capac-
ity of 200 barrels per day had been
struck. 1t is now reported that it
yields but $50 a day. Even the latter
figures pay pretty well. We hold
ourselves in readiness To accept a

The Iron Ore Of Lake sunerIor.

of October goth, says:
There is no other spot on the face
of this globe, as far as is known, that
contains such available and valuable
| deposits of iron ore as exist on the
Upper Peninsula of Michigan. The
celebrated magnetic ores of Sweden
| (which latter are very similar to our
black oxides of from are being eX-
hausted rapidly, as far as their eco
nomic value is concerned; and so
well understood is this fact among
iron manufactures abroad, that they
are already Tor were before the war
between France and Prussia) turning
their attention to this country with
view to obtaining our magnetic
ores and ship them to Germany. The
magnetic and specular iron ores of
Lake Superior, wherever known, en-
joy q reputation among irOn-wOrkers
second to no other ores in the world ;
and q gentleman residing in New
York city, intimately connected with
the manufacture Of Bessemer steel in
the United States, informed US, some
time ago, that if the manufacture of
railroad iron in this cOontry, by the
Bessemer process, ever became a com
plete success, it would be owing to
the almost exclusive use Of pig metal
made from our ores; For, said he,
their uniform excellence and free
ness from phosphorus and sulphur
render the Pig iron made from them,
and used in the manufacture of Bes-
semer steel. Of incalculable value
The opinion of this gentleman we
esteem very highly, for he is not only
thoroughly familiar with all wOrka-
BILE iron deposits of this country and
Europe, but is also well acquainted
with the various branches Of iron
manufacturing and at the present
time represents a large amount of
capital employed in making railroad
iron by the Bessemer process. The
value of the ilOn ores of the upper
peninsula of Michigan have for a
basis two very essential points to re-
commend them, Sriz: Their perfect
freeness from all deleteriOus substan-
ces, and their contiguOusness to fuel
and cheap transportation by water
In order to fully appreciate how very
fortunate we are in this particular, we
have only to look at Russia, whose
immense deposits of iron ore are al
most worthless 10 the people of that
empire, owing chiefly to n deficiency
Of fuel, and their TemOteness from
centres of commerce by cheap water
