that the product of pig iron in the United
States reached 1,850,000 tons, the most of which
was produced in Pennsylvania. The number
of persons engaged in the production of raw
and manufactured iron is given at 100000 of
whom 100000 are employed in the direct pro-
duction of iron, and 800, 600 in the manufacture
of articles of iron. The value of this labor, it
is asserted, if only paid at the rate of So per
day, and allowing 800 working days to the wear.
