"of Europe After quoting the forego-
ing sentence the Argus adds:
What the Governor could have been think
ing Of when he wrote that sentence we can't
imagine, and how such statement has passed

Of revision and correction is still more unac.

supposed that England was by far the largest
iron producing country in the world and that
the total product of iron by Great Britain and
the continent is some half dozen time.
greater than the whole product, not only of
the single State of Pennsylvania, but Of Ali
the States and territories of tue Union
To clinch its argument the Argus brings
forward statistics Of 1871, riumphantly
parading the figures of a year ago to show
what is being done nor, at the present
time, in the production OF iron 1t is true
that England uas the Largest iron pro-
ducing country in the world" even so late
