1hBhk Is puolshed IN England a paper
called "lron," a short but expressive name
and, as its name implies, tits devoted to
Iron interests. From Its notes VIC take
the following paragraph relative to one Of
our Wheeling establishments:
"There Ia an establishment at Wheeling
United States, call the Riverside Iron
Works,which turns out 5000 kegs Of nails
per week, besides other ironwOrk. During
the recent money crisis in America the
naileTs Of this great factory held a meet
ing, at which they resolved 10 work for
mere subsistence money till better times
should come, and the "boilers" offered 10
take hall wages, leaving the balance for
ninety days. The employers, however
were scarcely affected by the panic, and
needed no help; but they highly appre-
ciated the generous offers and told their
employees so. Would that such instances
Of good will were the rule, and not the
exception, and that we had not 10 cross
the Atlantic to find them, and even then
have TO mote" them because Of their rar.
ity."
The Pittsburgh Manufacturer, in the
columns Of which We find tho above para.
