stopped two OF their three turpsces,
closed their rail mill and discharged
about four hundred men. The ether

have not cut down the wages.

ter OF considerable value, an1 it should
be cut out ard preserved.
One ton (20O0 p, unds avoirdupoise)
OF gold or silver contains g, l63 troy
ounces, and, therefore, the value OF 8

a ton OF silver SS7 ,7U4 81
