LAST December there was held III
Philadelphia Il convention Of Pig Iron
Manufacturers, who resolved to cut down
production to one half the capacity OF
their furnaces. 1t Was understood that
this agreement was to be in operation
during the entire year 1875; but not TO
he effective until ratified by ut least two
thirds ofthc furnaces, exclusive Of char
coal furnaces.
The Secretary Of the American Iron
and Steel Association announces that, up
to this time, this agreement has not been
signed by one-thlrd ofthc manufacturers
to whom it has been presented.
1t has, therefore, fallen through, and
the pig iron manufacturers will not be
bound as to the amount Of production;
but will be guided solely by their own IN
tcrc>ts in the matter.

VOTING FOR PRESIDENT.

or course. it is to be expected that no
measure will be introduced by a Radical,
and before n Radical Congress, that does
not have for its ultimate object, some adj
vantage TO the Radical party. There
fore when Mr.. MoRTON, the other day,
introduced into the Senate his proposed
amendment TO the Constitution, looking
toa change in our system Of voting for
President and Vice President, If
his ideas had been expressed liter
ally. it would have read, "An
Amendment to assist the Republican
party in ITS efforts 10 secure President
in 1876. The provisions of the amend
ment are that. for the purpose ofvoting,
each State shall be divided up in man
ncr corresponding to its present Congress
sIonal districts; that the vote OF each of
these shall be cast, and the candidate
having majority in each. shall be the
choice eli that special district, and the
candidate having n majority ofdistricts,
shall have two votes from the State at
large.
Now, it would require powerfully
microscopic eye to see how, by this, the
people will be enabled to vote any more
directly for their chief magistrate, than
by the old electoral system. 1t merely
gives chance-though a very poor
one-for the minority vote in each State
to make an impression. For instance,
take West Virginia; suppose (merely
by way of argument - nothing
eise) that she dit have
one single Republican Congressional
Distri,t. BY the present system, the ,
