From the Journal of Commerce. The Irom Interest. The reduction of duties on iron under the new Tariff, is in a greater ratio than on moat other articles, for the reason that they were so enormously high. All that goes op must come down," &c. They are however, still at the top notch of favor, viz: 30 percent which, with freight and other cofiU of importation, is equivalent to a protection of 40 or 45 per cent. To say that this i insufficient not to make the fortunes of the owners in a day, but to afford them a handsome remunerating profit, provided their works are well situated and well conducted is to say what few will believe. In looking over our files the ether day, we met with the following communication, published on the 2d of October last, which on reading it, seemed exactly fitted to the present state of the market. We therefore repeat it here: Iaow When the Iron manufacturers of the Unite J Slate obtained the ptotectire duty of $25 per ton, established by the tiriffof 30th August, 1S42, the price of iton manufactured wholly or in part by roiling, in Great Britain, where it is alone produced, was not above 5 per 2,240 lbs., or f 22 22 per ton. During the last twelve months the tame iron has been telling theie for not lest than 9 per ton, or $40 per too; being $13 per ton higher than in A.D. 1842. For years to coma it cannot fall there below $40 per ton. It it therefore clear that if $13 per ton was now deducted from the duty oo inch iron, the manufacturers of the United States would enjoy the same ratio of protection a they did when that tariff was enacted. This is proved by the following statement i IS42, market pi ice in Wales and Scotland, of

iron manulaclared woolly or in pait by rolling, - - . . 5 $22 22 Estimate of protection ? United States duty, 140 per cent. 5 freight, Premium oo exchange, ... $23' 3 3 $31 per ton. $13 per ton. 23 3 5 1343, maiket price in Wales and Scotland ad vanced - - - - -United States duty - - - - Freight ..... Premium on exchange, ... $51 Increase f ratio of protection, fiom 140 per cent, to near 240 per cent, to the manufacturers in the United States. If in 1342 they required a protective duty of $25 per ton, It is clear tbey they only require in 1345, $7 per ton duty for their protection. A. B. C. The Troy Budget is publishing some very wholecome truths on this subject. Among other things, it gives us the following statement, which it says was prepared by James Hall, Esq. : Cent of Manufacturing Iron in the United Stotel and Great Britain compared. Great Britain. Crawshay establishment (Scuth Wales) in 1844.) Pig Metal. Tons. Cwt Lbs. Iron stone, ... 3 0 0 Coke, .... 1 15 0 Limetone, - 1 0 0 Wages, General charges, .....

Iron stone, $1 Coal, (anthracite) ... 3 2 Limestone, ----- 1 Wages- ------ l General charges ----- 2 Cost of a ton of pig iron in Pennsylvania, - - $11 75 50 00 72 75 00 $3 75 6 00 75 1 75 2 00 $14 25 11 75 Difference in favor of Great Britain, - - - $2 50 It will be seen by the above (adds the Budget) that the general charges for wages and manufacturing a ton of pig iron in Great Britain are put down at 3 00. In Pennsylvania the same is stated to be 3 73. " Forge " says that if " wc will ask any furnace man in Pennsylvania what he gets a ton for smelting, we will be answered from 3 50 to 4 00." Of course what is stated to be general charges, is included in this estimate. Now the difference in the cost of producing ton of pig iron in this country and Europe is only 2 50, and the cost of transportation, insurance and commission, is about this amount' Therefore, if there were no duty at all imposed upon the article, the manufacturers of the two-countries would meet in our markets upon equal terms for competition. But the new tariff gives our manufacturers the benefit of a 30 per cent, duty, which is a clear tax upon the consumers, and from which they have all the protection they need to sustain themselves against foreign competition, pay their hands good wages, and make large profits. What more can reasonable men ask for ! It is said, however, that it costs from $5 li) to $G 00 to forward the pig to market. It costs no such amount. The estimate is an unreasonable one. For the sake of argument, however, grant that it does. We ask whether it does not cost just as much to for ward the foreign article from the seaport towns to the dittereat markets in the country T A ton of iron a ton, and whether foreign or domestic, the carrying cost is the same. From the Pennsylvanian. I was standing, a few days ago, on the deck of the steamboat " Trenton," when my attention was directed to a newly invented machine, which proved to be an implement of husbandry, and quite complicated in its construction. Among the many the questions as to its use, was one by a son of Erin, whom I shall call Jim ; when the following colloquy took place between him and another from the same green isle, whom I shall call Pat, and tyho was evidently something of a wag and instantly took the idea to have a little fun with his less informed countryman, to the great amusement of the bystanders : Jim What is that ! Pat Is it you that don't know what that is, after beirr so long in the coonthry, too ! Jim Faith, and I don't I niver seed the like afore Divil a bit I know, if it ain't for diggin paraters. Pat Ha, ha, ha f och, the simple numbscull that ye are. way, that is the new tariff, ye blockhead, ye. Jim. la amazement Och, by my soul, and is that me new tarin so muca talU'd aooot ; and tuvil a lie in It? Pal It's nothin else, an' divil a lie, at all, at all Jim Och, domp the thing : but it'll ruin the coon thry : it's me boss that ses the laborers will have no work with the new tariff, and the coonthry ruined and 1 see nothm but starvation befoor me two eyes, I don't. Let's throw the domp thing overboard, and save the coonthry from starvin', now whin we hare a chance I Pal Is ityer boss ses this coonthry's ruiaed. And ain t yer boss a Whig ! Jim Sure, and a good Whiz he is, too and so am I. PatSo I thought, and ye're just the fool to believe every thing ye'r boss tells ye about the new tariff, ruin, low wages, and so on ; don't ye see I've made a fool of ye myself! xou believe that was the tariff, and wanted to throw the innocent crathur overboard, and a fool ve are to believe every thmz that's tould ye without rcadin and inquirin for ye'rsel such jgnorant men as ye'reself it is, that will bring the coonthry to ruin if any thing will. That tariff (pointing to the machine) is, in honest truth, a farmer's machine for sowing his grain for the people to live on ; and instead of its being an instrument of destruction and ruin, it is one of the instruments to fill our stomachs with bread, and so ye may may call it the new tariff if ye like, and ye'U know more about the new tariff than iver ye did. Ye'd better go borne now, and tell ye're boss, he's either a knave or a fool, (faith, may be a little of the two mixed) when he tries to cram such nonsense down the throats of honest and intelligent men, so ye had. Jim made his exit, grumbling. " How it Woaxs." The proprietors of the Cotton Mill in this village, who reduced the wages of their hands, a week or two since, says the Hchuylcrtille Herald, twenty-five per cent are now, and have been for several days, endeavoring to induce them to return to their work, at the cid vages ; but they are too late, as most of them have engaged to work in other mills. Thus have these gentlemem in their avarice overreached themselves, and brought a just retribution on themselves. They will now be compelled to seek elswhere for hands, and in the mean time, this mill stands almost idle. So much for the panic. The Oxes. In 1701, the succession of the House of Hanover was carried in the British parliament, by a majority of one. In 1331, Lord John Russell's pet t measure, the reform bill, was carried by a majority of one. In 1911, Sir Robert Peel's motion of want of confidence in ministers, was carried by a majority of one. One seems to be a mighty unit in our annals. If the smallest of numbers, it has produced some of the greatest effects found in the historical details of Britain.

Furth; that in 1 S, the load mines of Illinois, Iowa, and Wioconsin, though onl v pa tially worked, p od need upward of Ihi ty million pounds ot lead those of Illinois yielding their full p portion -and thit tha whole district, if p operly mined, would yield one bundled and fifty millions pounds per annum. These lands being situated oa and near the Mis.-lslppi and Fever rivers, the cost of transposing the p odacts ct them te t.' ICuls is only about fifteen cent, per bund ed pounds. Tbe soil Is bf excellent quality, and ) icMs abundantly all the products ol that latitude. Th-i lands ia th SHA VTNF.C fOW.N district have not been explored as fully as those la Dixon.
