IRON MINES IN ALABAMA.

An important increase in the pro.
duction of iron in Alabama, by the in
creased working of the mines and the
building of new furnaces and rolling
mills, is now noticed. It is expected
that great advantage will accrue to the
State, and the work is being assisted
by the railroad lines running through
the neighborhood where iron ore is
found. This region is in Jefferson
county, which lies little north of
the centre of the state, being about
100 miles northwest of Montgomery,
between the Coosa and Black Warrior
rivers. The largest town is Bir-
minghan, with a population of 1900,
where new iron rolling-mill is build
ing and will be ready for business by
the first of June. Several new furnaces
are likewise building at the same place,
and at other small towns near by mines
are being worked and furnaces are in
use. At one of these, Oxmoor, the
furnaces are now making a profit of
from $4,000 to $500 per day, turning
out between 200 and $50 tons of cast
iron. A great advantage is that the
mines and furnaces can be run the
whole year without any stoppage, and
by this and other facilities, such as
cheap labor, the cost of manufac-
turing iron of the best quality can be
kept down to $40 per ton, which, at
the prices ruling now, secures an i'm
mense profit. It is thought that this
will be only beginning of the de-
velOpmcnt of the mining resources OF

Lines to a Gagged Nloching Bird.

The Spring has come again, and ev'ry breeze
Is filled with music from the budding trees:
In joyous accents to the sunny skies.
Ono l!ttlc throat is silent-hush'd its song
Imprisoned as he is, the whole day long,
He cannot cheer us with his merry lay,
AS he was wont to do, from day to day.
But close confined within his wiry cell,
Alas! he,a destined. thus, alone to dwell,
Hangs listless-he is now too tired to sing
HIS cheerful notes will gladden. me no more;
Oh! it were better far, to die, than be
Forever vainly struggling to be free!
Could but set thee free poor, lonely bird!
Again thy silv'ry warblings might be heard!
Without it's richest boon-sweet liberty!

THE CITIZENS BANK OF LOUISIANA.

This time hOnoretl institution, as we
have been apprised by Its advertise
ment under constitutional requirement,
has presented a bill to the General AS
sembly for authority to liquidate its
mortgage stock department through
the agency Of the banking department.,
by compromises proposed to be effect
ed, both with the mortgage stockhold-
ers, the debtors and the foreign bond
holders, the creditors, with the last of
whom negotiations have been pending
since last summer.
1t has been for some years apparent
that the large amount of real estate
held by the bank and encountered
with stock mortgages should be sold,
especially the country estates, and
placed in tho hands of tillers of the soil.
All of this property has been acquired
by tho bank under foreclosures of mort
gage, rendered necessary in order to
preserve it rs an asset with which to
pay the bondholders.
The banking department., which is
stnunch and solid, and under the skill
full management of well-known bust
ness men, is prepared to realize from
tho assets of the mortgage stock de-
partment all that can be possibly culled
from them, and with the large expert
ence of its directors, is better fitted for
the duty than any other syndicate.
The mortgage debtors, over four hum
dred in number, are likewise sorely
pressed with the incubus of stock mort
cages on their properties, and, it is be-
lieved, will eagerly avail themselves of
the opportunity which favorable lecis-
lation will afford them of an carly set

The above extract gives a clear con.

the General Assembly before its adj
journment by constitutional provision
on the 10th inst. But nine days at the
date of the selection of this list for &C.
ton by preference, remained. So far
as advised, little has been done since,
and tomorrow that body stands con-
stitutionally adjourned sine die. No
regular session can be held for two
years, and many, very many, acts re-
main to be passed in order to put the
machinery of the new constitution into
full and harmonious operation. It is
understood that the Governor is OPP
posed to calling an extra session. The
necessity for calling one starcs think
ing men in the face, and yet, so far, the
proper constitutional authority has per-
sistently Stunned tho responsibility of
action. The constitution fixed tho du-
ration of the first session in such q
manner as to give ample time for the
discussion and enactment of the neces-
sary laws, had our Legislators confined
themselves to tho consideration of such
measures, and such measures only, as
concerned the material interests Of the
people and the economical administra-
ton Of the State government under the
new regime. the opportunity for the
exercise Of such wisdom on their part
having been lost by delay, the meas
ures of great and general Importance
still undisposed Of leave the Governor
no other course than to call an extra
session for action upon these measures
| alone. The people will sustain him ia
such wise action, when exercised al
the last moment, and place the respon-
sibifity for the necessity of such net ion
where it properly rests.
