Heavy e. ale.

A heavy gale sprang up on Tuesday last
which continued with upabated- violence
until last night. The propeller Favorite
with three barges, took shelter in the bay,
and, on yesterday, one Of them showed a
signal of distress. The life boat was got
ready, but her services were not needed.
1t was ascertained that the barge he'd
sprung a leak, bat VIZ. relieved By her
pumps, and the throwing over of consid-
cradle number OF her deck load. The Two
Rivers paper Of Yesterday says that CON
siderable portion off, new pier was washed
away by the heavy sea, and that the beach
was strewn with lumber, probably from
some vessels outside who encountered the
gale. A portion of the standing work OF
the Eighth street bridge was washed off by
the action of the sea, which set in with
great violence from the eastward.

A LIBERAL DEMOCRAT CE THE sITUA-
TON.

We have before us a copy of the New
| York Citizen, of which Congressman
! Roosevelt is editor He is one of the
| least Objectionable, most liberal Democrats
| in the United States The editorial in
question starts out by saying that indepen-
dent Republicans should bear one thing
| in mind, which is that "a small body can
effect nothing by themselves, and must
conciliate Democratic prejudices and wish
es, or they must fail of their purpose" He
adds:
For them to undertake to nominate distinc-
tive candidate, and ask Democrats to lay aside
their preference and approve such nomination,
IS the highest degree of presumption, and one
which will scarcely be approved by those to
whom 1t is addressed.
The Citizen goes on to say:
The idea has been circulated that Republi-
can should be nominated, but this would be I'M
wise and unfortunate. Are there no good Dem
ocratS, that some newly converted Republican
centralized government on his head must
be chosen? And can Democrats be ex-
pected to give any devoted adherence to such
a convert? At the best he can only say, "All
know is that l was blind, and now l see;'
and before such late light is the great body of
those who have never been in darkness to bow
with humble reverence? Such establishment
and humility can not be expected from any
class of men, much less from those who have
the glorious traditions of fifty years of wisdom
to Sett off against few years of folly; who can
look back proudly upon the high record of De-
mOcracy.
This paper goes on to argue that the
meeting of the Cincinnati Convention is
premature-thati it should have been held
after instead of before the Democratic Con-
vention. Allusion is made to Hancock,
Hendrix, Seymour, Tilden and ga dozen
other" as possible Democratic candidates
for the Presidency, and concludes:
Amid such an array, how can mere Repub-
licans be expected to make q selection, or why
should they think themselves entitled to do so ;?
Why should they presume to dictate to the
regular Democratic Convention, or control its.
action? And, above all, how can they expolt.
to force Republican on the latter and over all i
these? A Republican Vice President woU,d,b be
proper concession to them, and all thai thew
can, by any stretch of liberality, demaad!
These. be it remembered, are die opin-
ions of liberal Democrat, What can be
expected from the simon pare, unadulter-
ated article as represented by the World,
the Cincinnati, Enquirer or the Mobile
Register ,
Knoxville daily chronicle. [volume] (Knoxville, Tenn.) 1870-1882, 1872-03-03

iron man of the South that in East Ten
nessee iron can be made at near five dol
lars per ton cheaper than elsewhere in
America. We do not regard this as an ex-
travagant statement for it comes from
gentleman who has thOrOughly-both
practically and Observation-Disclosures
the subject, and therefore knows whereof
he affirms.
We hope that the immediate result of
this rapid advance in the price of iron will
be to give renewed impetus to this great
department of our material interests, and
hasten the day, certain eventually to come,
when East Tennessee will be one of the
greatest iron regions of the country.
Knoxville daily chronicle. [volume] (Knoxville, Tenn.) 1870-1882, 1872-03-03
OUR IRON INTERESTS,

The arrangement Of The Iaboring system
OF Englah" mas very materially advanced
Lna price Of labor. The unusually large
number of railroads now projected and be-
ing built the mining troubles in Pennsyl-
vania and the very many new uses TO
which iron is being put, all combine to in
crease very largely the demand. The
year 1872 will be one Of great profit to the
iron and mining interests of the country,
and especially to those Of East Tennessee.
If we had a hundred furnaces in full blast,
as we ought to have, our section would
soon bloom as the garden, and our homes
be well provided for in all that pertains to
worldly comforts. The price of iron is adj
vancing rapidly and the possibilities are
that everything into the composition OF
which iron largely enters will feel the effect
of this rise. The great profit to East Ten
neSse will grow out of the fact that iron
can be made cheaper here than anywhere
else on the continent. There is no doubt
OF the truth of this, and the great IRON
masters of the world are now convinced OF
it. The time is not distant when our iron
interest will be the greatest Tennessee
possesses. The very moment that railroads
once open to the manufacturer the iron
and coal beds of East Tennessee, that mo-
ment this great interest will grow with re-
markable rapidity.
Our iron men are now sending their pic
metal to the lakes of the North The
Roane Iron Company, of lockwood, sold
ON last Friday one thousand tons of pig
metal to one establishment at Cleveland,
Ohio, and refused to sell a balance of two
thousand tons, still unsold, to parties in
Cincinnati. Cleveland, Ohio, is within
water communication of the greatest iron
beds on the continent-the Lake Superior
ore beds. The fact, therefore, that ou
iron men can sell at profit their iron to bt
transported at heavy expense to Lake
Erie, shows what We may make of our un'
developed iron mines.
We have the assurances Of the heaviest
