 Being anxious to learn something of the much talked of steel plant the re- porter made inquiries and ascertaned that the Birmingham Rolling Mill com pany was ready to build, but two ob- stacles were in the way, and these re- moved they were ready to push the work to completion
 The first obstacle was the report that the Tennessee Coal Iron and Railroad company anticipated erecting a plant. If this company builds the rolling mill company will secure the necessary prod ucts from them and use the money re- served for building a steel plant in put ing more machinery for making steal rails, etc.
 The other obstacle is, so it was learned that the mill people find difficulty in getting figures from the pig iron pro- ducers for necessary iron. This, it is un- derstood, is because the furnace people find more money in turning out gray forge pig than in pigs for steel.
 Be these obstacles as they may, the re- porter learned, and on good authority, that a steel plant was assured for this district within the next six months, ne- cessity making it inevitable. Once steel plant in full blast and second Pitts burg was the prediction for Birmingham
  the mill were as follows:
 The mill has at work within its gates fully 1000 people.
 The pay rolls every two weeks foot up in round numbers 900.
 One pudding department is running three shifts and the other two.
 There is a scarcity of men in the pud- ding department, in one mill alone seven idle furnaces being seen.
 The Birmingham Rolling Mill company boasts of the heavy weight in the pud- ding department in the person of John Cunningham. recent arrival from St. Louis. He stands feet and tips the beam at 333 pounds and is as active and wiry as cat.
 There is less friction among the em- ployers and employees than at any plant of it's size in the country.
 The prospects for long run were never better Good prices for products, immense advance orders and constant shipments with the mills running full time, point to an indefinite run.

the unlimited coinage of silver. The in- ference from what they said was that the price of cotton had never before been so
 low, nor anywhere near so low. What have they to say to the statement in the government bulletin that in 1S45 when
 our hints were open to the unlimited coinage of silver the price of cotton was lower in this country than it was at any
 time during the present season, or at any time since our hints were closed. to the unlimited coinage of silver? In the decade
 between 1S40 and 1850 middling cotton, &C., cording to this government bulletin, sold for less than cents pound at Mobile. 1t is plain, from the information con tained in this bulletin, that silver has nothing to do with the price of cotton. If it has, will the slverite papers be kind enough to advance some reasons, consis- tent with the history of the prices of cot ton for the last 100 years, showing that 1t has? If they have no such reasons they ought to say so frankly. We assume they want the truth to go to the people, and there doesn't seem to be any truth in the 5-cent cotton argument which they
 presented so continuously few months ago to bolster up the cause of silver Savannah Morning News.
 Mexico's Irish Scheme.-Is Mexico the friend or foe of England? The pertinence of the question arises from the fact that our neighbor proposes to tempt Irishmen by the thousands to leave their Green isle" home and settle in Mexico.
 The temptation consists in the proposed gift to Irishmen of all the Mexican land they can individually cultivate and also the free gratis payment of tfansporta- ton from sod to sod. Furthermore, 1t Is intended the British government giv ing consent, to have an agent in Ireland within two or three weeks telling Irish II bOnt fhp hpa1IfiPS of MnNiPO and persuading them to accept the govern ment's bounty.
 The whole scheme sounds well, and shows a certain fertility of ideas and gen. erosity on the part of Mexico. But fur ther events will be necessary to persuade many that the scheme will work On the one hand the British government will doubtless object seriously to the seduc- tion of any of it's Irish subjects, hard as it is to control them. On the other hand the 1rishman loves Ireland and cares lit- tie for emigration, unless he can go to America. Also Mexico is an undeveloped and too far south country to attract Irishmen. There is an Irish problem of nationality to be solved, which suggests the propriety of Irshmen remaining in Ireland and getting for themselves that glory which is the laudable ambition of every Irish heart.
