IRON FURNAcE.-We are gratified to learn
that an Iron Furnace is soon to be esta blished
in Westminster. The enterprise is in the ha nds
of reliable men, among whom are some
of our own enterprising citizens. We have
urged for some months past upon the attention
of our people, the importance of this branch of
industry, and we are pleased to hear that there
is prospect of its early establishment The
iron interest is one of the highest Importance
Vast as its present proportions are, it is con-
tinually on the increase. The demand for iron
is SO great that it is scarcely possible for the
manufacturers to keep pace with it, while the
price ofthe article, at home and abroad, is stead
lily advancing. Pig iron, years ago. was one of
the productive industries of the vicinity of
Westminster. Associated capital and labor
are now about to renew on larger scale. a bus
mess once confined to Individual enterprise ::
and it is difficult to grasp, at once, the advan-
tages it will confer upon all theinterests this
