Thk Uses of Iron —Iron I ocses.— In the course of Mr. Silver’s capita) I cturc on Ir. n, B a , t he Franklin Institute, a few evenings since 9 he designated a few of the vs ious objects to || which iron is applied, he enur erutes steam and ■ sailing ships, canal boats, rail ro dears, carriages, ■ fences, bridges, aqueducts, wide wheels, pumps, p| architectural columns and o nainents, house p fronts, mantels, chimneys, simtt rs, awning posts, | picture frames, &c. In Eiu ; la d, he said, large | - manufactories are built wholly >1 inn ; and for many, it has been partially use in this coun.ry. The buildings of the Philadeip ia Gas Gompa- , * nv, are nearly all iron. Al c d, i .uch of the inte i ,t- ’ new Hall of the Academe of Natural Sci- I ences. The basement of the louse at the N. IW. corner of.Bth and Cheny Irctl. is of iron ; | and any observer, he added, .tliuot tail to see, I that for freshness and finenels. it eclipses the £ marble fronts around. Thf* lower sections of the pillars of the portico o ! the Church, in Tentn and F’ilhert street, are iollow cast iron. * The beautiful front of the Min rs Bank at Potts ■ ville, the steps, moulding, corn ce and statuary, J are of iron. The portable iron boats in which I merchandize is brought from I ,c far-west, are of I iron. An iron steamer is nm floating in tri* I umph, on the Ohio; and the 1 nglish ship Arch- I imedes, is of iron, in the Text i trade. He ex r jressnJ a belief that before mat y years, iron hou- I ses would be advertised, and d livered tor occu | pancy, at three months notice- -and that houses r so farmed, to the value of n llions of dollars, | would be exported from Pen jsylvania to 1 ex- I * as, the West Indies and fSoutl America.
