PlrTsnuRan, August oO.-The movement
Tor the restriction Of the production of the
blast furnaces Of the country seems to bs
growing steadily in favor. At the office Of
the Western Pig Iron Association in this
city it WAS stated yesterday afternoon that
between 800 and 400 replies to the circular
proposing months snspsnpion had been
received, and that the number le increased
with every mail. The whole aumber Of
furnaces in the country is nearly 700, but
many Of those are old and bave been out
Of blast for 30 long time that they are not
included in the proposition. About 400
favorable replies will be considered sutli
clent 10 justify the Inauguration Of the
movement. These are expected TO come in
before the close Of the week, and the indi-
cattons are that the order to suspend will
be issued the beginning Of next week. The
exact extent OF the restriction that will fol.
low the suspension cannot be estimated in
advance, but 1t is generally thought it will
be sufficient to cause almost complete
consumption Of the stock on band. Sew
eral thousand men will be thrown out oil
employment temporarily, but it is argued
that the suspension will be q good thing all
around, and that the workmen as well az
the manufacturers will ba bent hted in the

Dental candidate. The poor fellows arc
in a pitiiul situation, but they are not

large is concerned. Many years will pass
before the fearful error OF picking IN an un-
known man for his alleged availability
will be repeated. Toe dose is bitter. bnt
1t ia salutary medicine. The tendency
Of our closely calculating poll
ticiana has been Tor some time
to hunt for men who could not bo con-
victsd Of doing anything. This year the
Republicans had the understanding to nom-
ina:s for the great office the mcst conspicu-
Gus OF their leaders, and every hour nIyes
testimony that their COURSE wssone Of wis-
dom. The Democrats nominated a man
unknown in National politics, with a rec.
ord as a Sheriff and Mayor, and an election
to be Governor by the isctions that had
killed of their real lesdsrs; and their eau.
ton is msniiestly foollshneas. There ought
