MsEIres,s WINE OF cARpu! for female diseases

Much ado has been made over
the fact that 5000 tons of pig iron
left Sheffield, Ala, last week for
Pittsburg, Pa, by river. The fact
that $500 per ton was saved on
the freight, over the rate by rail,
enters in as the important feature.
And right here let us say that
barges carrying sufficient iron to
insure cheap freight can pass over
the shoals near Waterloo only a
small portion of the year, and this
trouble win be in the way until
that part of the river receives
substantial Improvement, and the
people of Sheffield should begin
now to urge Congress to include
these shoals in the rivers and
harbers appropriation.
