enormous production Of pig-iron, prices are higner

nj New.York the market is decidedly hrmer III

iron is higher at all points, and in much be'ter
demand, and structural and plate iron are higher
with demand exceeding the present capacity Oh
the works The report Of the improvements IN
steel rails does not seem to be warranted as yet
for there were no sales Of consequence during the
week but the makers are more confident OF
good demand hereafter, and the state of the stock
market and the large earnings of the railroads
appear TO Justify their confidence On the other
hand little can he said of the cotton manufacture
which is unfavorably affected at present by the
abnormal,y high price of the material, and though
sales OF wool Mt Boston have increased, most OF
the manufacturers buying only what they
require for orders already booked. The goods
market does not yet warrant paying present prices
for WOOL and the Boston sales appear to have been
secured in part by concessions in price on Ohio
and Montana fleece The recent drygoods failures
have produced less effect than was expected
except in the market for materials. While the
number of commercial failures is as large as 1t
was last year, not many are of Importance. and
the state of credits is regarded as unusually
eound.

MR.. SULLIVAN FOR CONGRESS-.

The letter in which the Hon. John L. Sullivan
announces his intention of running for Congress
will be read with mixed feelings by his possible
colleagues at Washington. But among the
people at large the qualification viii be general
that this eminent bruiscr should show patriotic
desire 10 serve his country even in so com
poratlvely humble q capacity. The tribune
long ago recommended Mr.. Sullivan for foreign
mission when Mr.. Bayard's pugilistic ENJOYS
at Bogota had made fistic prowess q necessary
qualification for Office. But it never Ventured
to suggest that, following the example OF inc
late Mr. Morrissey, he should consent 10 eNch1hge
the conspicuous position he has so long adorned
for the bumdrum olscurity of n seat in Congress.
In an interview, Mr.. Sullivan complains that
all his good resolutions have hitherto been mis-
construed, and pathetically enjoins his friends
not TO dissuade him from his present unseliish
intention Nevertheless, we must urge HIM not TO
take a step of such Importance unadvised Has
he duly considered the extent of the sacrlhce
involved? Is he willing to forego the cXhilara-
tions of a socxdologcr in the pOtato-trap and a
fall under the ropes for the irritating monotony
Of attempts TO catch the Speakers eye and casual
encounters in the commttee-room And has
he reflected on the impairment of his health 10
which too close application to CUSHING
Manual and too much thinking and sitting up
at night might expose him?
