FoR DISTRICT ArToRNEY.-This morn.
ing John d. CORN announces that he
will be candidate before the people for
the Office of District Attorney of this
county. Heretofore Judge CORN pro-
posed to be candidate for the position
of Justice of the Peace, but at the re-
quest of many influential friends, he has
changed his base, and is now standing in
for District Attorney. The Judge is so
well known, that it is needless to say
that he is one of the Oldest settlers in the
county, and has uniformly borne the
highest character for integrity and is of
unquestioned ability. In the early his
tory of this county the Judge filled seve-
raj offices, among others that of District
Judge, and transacted its business with
ability and impartiality. He is now not
very well off, has large family, and if
his friends can give him lift, we are
sure they will never have reason to regret
it.

pleasure of meeting with A. NJ. Hill

Editor, she is not dead. but enjoying her honeymoon with her young husband. Can you not extend your con gratulations to one who has SO narrowly es capped an untimely end. c
 [The peculiar manner in which our mos, excellent correspondent from Millertou worded that part of the communication last week that related to Miss Kenyon. leo us to take it's meaning literally, and to make It read more clearly, removed few words; which we now find, made mischief. The good people of Millerton would have un- derstcod it, but the fact was stated So SO. oerly, that those unacquainted with the ac- tual state of affairs would have scarcely got the meaning but no harm is done. and we'll promise our faithful reporter to be. have better next time.-ED.

Pig-KrOn Manufacturers
CONVENTION AT PHILADELPHIA.

PHI1ADE1pR1A, May 2sth.-The conyen- ton of pig-iron manufacturers met at 1e. SC o'clock to-day at the rooms of the Ameri- can Iron and Steel Association, No. 265 South Fourth street. Mr. Charles I. Nourse. chairman of the pig iron commit tee, presided, and James M. SWank acted as secretary. The circular call having been read by the president, the convention proceeded to the transaction of business. A committee of five to prepare series of resolutions expressive of the views of the meeting reported the following, which were adopted:
 Hesot0ea, That we earnestly appeal to congress for such legislative assistance to the industries of. the country as will aid in relighting the fires which are now uuenched and in giving employment to our unem- ployed workingmen.
 ResoIred, That it is the opinion of this convention that this assistance can be most promptly rendered by stimulating the com pletion of the present authorized continen- tai lines of railroad between the Atlantic and Pacific, and by improving and increas- ing tne Iacnlties Tor cheap transportation
 
 ResoIUed, That the completion of these continental lines of railway would effectn. ally end the Indian troubles, and thus save many millions annually to the goyernmen: In military supplies and transportation.
 Resosoed. That the permanent prosperitv or the industrial interests of the country can only be assured by the speedy adontion by congress of financial policy which shall produce Q general revival of conf denee, and by the abandonment of the sui cldal policy Of encouraging foreign manu- factures at the expense of cur capital and labor. N
 Resosoed, That this convention earnestly recommends the passage of the Finance bill now pending before the House of Rep resentauves, providing for free banking,
 Rssogoed, That we request the working classes of this country, through their oro ganizations and otherwise, to call mass meetings immediately. and urge upon the present Congress not to adjourn until it has acted upon the financial questions before A ''
 ReeosUed, That we will cooperate with the workingmen to the best of our ability In all honorable means to have proper ac- ton taken by this Congress or the next to avert the threatened influx of foreign iron into this country, by which action the la- DOT necessary to the production of such iron as the country needs will be secured to our oEn people, to whom of right it justly belongs.
 Reses0ed, That it is fatal to our interests to longer attempt keeping our furnaces in blast, as at the present prices paid for la bor, the loss in the manufacture of pip.iron is large, and If stocks accumulate much beyond the want of consumers, the loss win be increased, and bankruptcy will be inevitably reached. As measure of self preservation, therefore, we recommend nas an manufacturers of pig-iron in this country curtail producticn by Stopping inc mining of coal and ore, and such other work as IS necessary. in the preparation of stock, ana by putting out thelr fires as soon es possible until such time as tha increased seNaa3 VII justify . change of policy,
