Ornamental Iron and
Bronze Works.
and


As successful workers in iron,
for practical and useful purposes,
as well as Ornamental Combined,
the firm Of Robert Wood & Co.,
of Philadelphia, are the first on
the American Continents and their
work compares tavorably with
the finest skill of the world
They employ $50 Of the most
skillful workmen in this country,
two.thirds of whom have served
their apprenticeship under Robert
Wood, the Senior Partner, who,
for the past twenty five years, has
given his special attention to the
production of his goods, and who,
by an honorable course of dealing.
has built up business having no
rival in this country, and but few
in Europe. They cast an almost
unlimited variety of designs, IN
Guiding lions, dogs, and variety
of other animals, most beautiful
fountains adorned with statues
of water-nymphs, fawns, &C., be-
side statues Of distinguished per.
sons, life size, heroic and colossal.
The collaasal statue of Henry
Clay, cast by this Company and
erected at Pottsville, Pa, has re.
ceived the highest encomiums of
English travellers visiting this
country. The casting Of statna-
ry in bronze has been instituted
only about five years, but within
this short period Of time has at.
tanned such a high degree of ex.
cellence and superiority as to bring
the establishments Unsuccessful com.
petition with the rndst noted and
Oldest bronze works Of Europe. The
colossal statue Of Lincoln, cast by
Messrs. Wood & Co. lately, TO be
placed in Union Park, New York,
was cast in six pieces, and the
whole work of casting and finish
ing required three months, 1t is
eleven feet high, and the likeness
is true and faithfully represented,
being the finest bronze casting in
the United States. The elegant
set of iron stair cases for the Court
House in Carlinville, III, at a cost
Of $4,000, IS the most superior
casting of this kind probably in
the world. While Messrs. Wood
G. Co. have theslargest assortment
of all kinds of ornamental iron
goods in the United States, which
are executed with the express view
of pleasing the taste, they combine
all the requisites of beauty and
substantial construction. Their
garden and cemetery adornments,
cast, wrought iron and wire rail-
ings, fountains, vases, verandas.
Isettees, arbors chairs and store
fronts, door and window guards,
farm fencing, &C., are all manu-
factured from the best material
and offered to the trade upon the
most liberal terms.
They also manufacture new and
improved styles of hay racks, man.
gers, stable fixtures, stall divis-
ions, &C., which are very beauti-
ful and being rapidly introduced
all over the country.
Those who may desire this class
of goods should at once address
Robert Wood & Co. 1136 Ridge
Avenue, Philadelphia, and get a
catalogue of designs and prices.
These goods should be introduced
rapidly all over the country from
the fact that they are not only
more ornamental than wood, but
will last several generations, and in
the end the cheapest by far. The
low freights from the East open
up a golden opportunity to secure
this class of goods from the most
noted manufacturers of cur coun-
try. :.

FoR SECRETARY OF SrATE.-The nu'
merous friends of J. ID. Minor, Esq, our
oblieing and efficient County Clerk, are
urging him to become q candidate for
the office Of Secretary of State on the
Republican ticket, and we feel warranted
in making the assertion that no more
popular man for the position can be put
10 the field by either party. We have
not learned that Jim has consented TO
become a candidate for the Office, but
should he do so, We are certain that the
Humboldt delegation will press his
claims in the Convention independent
of all other considerations, as there is
not a more popular man in the country.

HORRIBLE OUTRAGE.-A telegram in
las, evenings News dated Fort Scott,
Arkansas, May 10 says:
The most d;abolical outrage ever re-
corded, occurred on Tuesday night a,
the town of La Dare, a few miles south
of here. Six men, either Texans or
stragglers and outlaws from the Indian
Territory, went to tho house of one
Roach, to stay all night, but we're re-
fused admission on account of their
drunken condition. They then knocked
Roach insensible, and then went to
the bed occupied by his two daughters,
aged IL aud IA years, and ravished
them during the entire night, using a
knife to accomplish their hellish pur-
pose. Roach foally revived, but feared
to stir, knowing that be would be kill
ed. He describes the cries and entreat.
les of the girls as heart-rending. A
quarrel arose among the demons, and
one was shot dead while in the act of raw
ishing one of the girls, and they then fled
to the woods taking one of the girls
with them, and leaving their dead com
rade. The town was aroused, and par
lies started in every direction, and soon
one with the girl, and hung
him to tree. The others subsequently
we're caught and hung to the same tree.

better health than he has enjoyed in the last
