THE ENGLISH Iron TRADE.-The de-
preston in the English iron trade Is per-
haps more severe than in any other
branch; but nearly every department Of
business ia also suffering A process Of
industrial and commercial reaction has
set in there similar to that from which
we have been suffering for two years and
arising from the same fundamental
causes. The process began later there
than here; but It must run the same
course. We have apparently cou-
pleted the process Of reducing wages
in some Of the more important branches
Of trade; England is now beginning It;
and the suspension Of work by the great
firm Of BlOckow, Vaughan 4 Co. Is a step
in that direction. II Is anotice TO the ten
thousand employees Of the firm that, II
production Is to be continued, wages must
be reduced aud the firm probably took
this method OF announcing the TACT not
only because it was likely to be the most
efIectual, but also because II would afford
them an opportunity OF diminishing
large accumulalions Of their product.
Their action Is not to be regarded MS in
any sense an evidence Of financial weak
ness; for the firm Is considered one Of the
wealthiest in the iron trade Of England.
This precedent, set by the largest works
in the country, will no doubt be readily
followed by others; and we may expect to
hear OF a crisis In this branch Of trade.
Some may not be able to bear the partial
liquidation that attends such a step, and
all such producers must suffer; but there
can be no doubt the course adopted Is cal
culated 10 restore affairs 10 normal ba-
sis with the least delay. To our own
trade, this will not be the most welcome
news, as it means a reduction In the price
Of British iron with which they must

ST. LOUIS, November L. Shook n
Palmer, Of Union Square Theatre, New
York, made application this afternoon
through counsel to Judge Lindley OF the
Circuit Court OF this county, in chambers
for preliminary injunction to restrain
the Mckee Rankin combination from
playing at De Bars Opera House any
translation OF the "TwO Orphans" The
defendants Petitioned for the removal
Of the case to the United States
Court but Judge Lindley sitting in
chambers could not entertain the petition
to hear the affidavit by the defendant, and
a temporary injunction was granted. An

night, however, but during the first act

served a writ Of injunction on Mckee
Rankin and several other members Of the

MANSFIELD, o., Oct. 2S.

MANSFIELD, o., Oct. 2S.
Gentlemen ofthe CentenniaI Commission:
Feeling, as do, an abiding interest in
West Virginia, / have thought ft to call
YOUR attention 10 some meteorological
points, that observed when there, which
might be made available by your Com.
mission.
There Is, up run west Of Elizabeth,
Writ county, or on some Of its brancheS,a
lead mine Of some value, | think. | had
several specimens when In Parkersburg,
but could never find the exact location.
Some one in Writ county may now know
1t.
The camel coal vein Of Preston county
commences north Of JohnStown, Pa,
where II Is eleven feet thick, runs through
Somerset, Pa, Preston, Harrison, near
Clarksburg, and KanAwhA,i into Kentucky,
at good thickness. | should think speCi.
mems from the whole line would be deSir.
able, as the time is not distant, az Eastern
people will perceive, when II will prove
one Of the most valuable resources OF
West Virginia.
In 1860 / sold for tho late Geo. Hard.
man in New York one hundred tons at
SIG . ton, when anthracite was retailing
at S., but the freight was then too heavy
for him 10 ship.
What Is called bastard limestone in
your Wheeling Hill is better than the
Louisville cement stone. Burning, calci-
mining and setting in water will provei II.
The most perfect stalngmite, when pol
ished, | ever saw Is found in the ctevlces
of the rock in Wheeling Hill, and around
Coal Run in Chapline Hill.

attention to the facts ELECTED in my form

tion Of your collections in the Wheeling

LOUISVILLE, November la review
and statistical record Of the leaf tobacco
trade Of Louisville for 1S74-5, published
to-day, says: The year is almost Os me
morablo rs its immediate predecessor,
though II will be remembered with very
different feelings-a season Of shrinkage
and loss everywhere to those engaged In
handling the staple. II Is in striking
contrast with the buoyancy Of values and
profits OF trade which distinguished the
year. But we allude to the vast majority
Of our population and the large and
preponderant amount Of capital inter:
ested in Cullivating tobacco instead
OF buying and trading in Il. The results
OF q year will far more than redeem its
character. The successful crops and de-
clining prices Of 1876 afford better
grounds for congratulation than the ru.
ined crops and buoyAnt markets Of 1874,
but as regardsthe market proper, nearly
the only agreeable feature 10 which we
can refer is the fact that Louisville has
continued 10 lead the van Of primary
markets Of the world. There has been
but a small crop to handle, but she has
controlled a larger proportion OF that
than In former years, and has also done,
the extent OF the general movement be.
ing considered, large business for other
inferior markets.

Russia thinks that conference OF the

pressure Is all she has in view IL can be
more safely applied by dispatches than by
conference. ffshe aims at more serious

OPINION OF TIE CLERGY IN REGARD
TO MooDY AND SANKEY.-The New York
Herald Of yesterday comes to us (per fast
mail) laden with the opinion Of ministers
IN several Of the principal cities Of the
country in regard to the revival now be-
ing carried on by Moody and sankey in
Brooklyn. Nearly all tho recognized Or
thodox clergy seem inclined to think well
and speak hopefully Of the movement,
but occasionally there is one who mis-
trusts that II will be but GaShin the pan,
and perhaps beget reaction that will
more than neuttaliEe It's good effects.
This latter view ia very general
ly entertained by the unorthOdox clergy
especially the UnitariAns. The Rev. DR.
Bellows, Of New York, fears that the re-
vival is like n straw fire, giving more
light than heat DR.. Chaplin has the
same opinion, feeling that "rcligion is
more Of life than un emotion" Mr..
Frothinghum would not encourage the
movement, because II Is evunescent, and
will in the end do more harm than good.
Revival e1citemcnts, he thinks, result in
positive evil, "People," he says, "sud.
denly and violently aroused to religious
enthusiasm do not keep up the feryor
with which they commenced, and when a
relapse comes It leaves them worse than
they were at first" With the exception
Of a few such dissenting opinions as these
the general feeling Of the Clergymsn is
that The two evaugcliSts are doing a good
work, and need the encouragement Of all
Christian men.
