A London dispatch says that “tbe mi faetureraof.Wotrerhaayton are importing iron from tbe United States, in cooacqoence of lbs rxorUlant rales at which native pro doctions are held." Shipments of iron are actually being made to England! Willi ders ever cesser The iron masters of England are really in troubles. Not only haa the price of coal ad vanced, bet labor has advanced sod is on a strike. The workmen most be paid more or starve, because all the necessaries of life ere .advancing in price. Tbe recent importation of American iron'was, perhaps, made with • view of convincing the workmen that they mart be moderate in thtir demands. Certain it ii that statements of the two markets have been industriously circulated in the manufacturing districts. These show that while the English market has been advancing rapidly, the American market tends toward < lower rates, on account of the Increased facilities for working the iron and coal mlocs. For instance, merchant tmig, which are the irons moat largely shipped to (be United States, are worth in Staffordshire $73 25. The frcightage.dnty, insurance end commitsioo from (he works in England to New York bring tbe prieeupto $105, while the price of American bars of tbe same variety ia $9J. The English work man is confronted with such facte when be demands more than starvation wages. Ia spite of her immense fscilities, un- bounded capital •n*! rtillH labor, England is fast losing her power to undersell us. These facts are of deep interest to tbe people of North Georgia. The prejudices against articles of domestic manufacture are dying oat before tbe well ascertained fact that oor manufacturers cm and do make the best qoality of iron; sod tbe principal trouble now ranu lobe that they can not supply tbe home demand. Oor furnaces are rapidly increasing,however, and Georgia is doing her part in enlarging what is destined to be tho grandest Industry of tbe country. It is not considered probable that the labor differences in England cm bo adjusted on a basis satisfactory to the employees. The men cinnoliflord to work for present prices, and the manufacturers cannot afford to pay m-'re and retain this coon tray for a market. The workmen will come to Ibil country rather than arerpt the terms that are now offered to them. Let them come.

General Rosccren* baa just arrived from Mexico, and a reporter of the New Orleans Herald hastened to review him relative to tbe attnaticn, and the feelings of the Mexican lie says that Mexico contains 7,500,000 un happy people, 570,000 of whom are unmill gated rascals who are engaged in the promo tion of di-curd sol strife. The honest peo ple are divided into different classes. The merchants, large land holders, etc, bold aloof from polities,desiring nothing so much as peace and permanence; and they would, ia Gen. IPs opinion, welcome the protection of tbe Usited Buies The political chiefs and small politicians, who manage to con trol opinion, fear a change of government, bresose they fear there would be chance for their peculiar tactics The General says that many of the Amer ican claims are very ui>J oat, and he is satisfied that the government does cot intend to force Mexico Into war He believes in a peaceful conquest of Mexico—a conquest that would inevitably -emit from mare intimate com mercial relations, the cooat roctioo of rail roads, and the increase of respectable emi gration from the States. The Mexicans really have aa rx-Jted opinion of our energy and sdvarced citilixition; and it we about It in the right way, says General R the conquest of Mexico is the casket thing Ia case of war, he thinks the course pur sued by General Scott will operate favorably in the matter of supplies. He treated the people well,and paid for everything the army Sled. Tbe French, oo the contrary, stole everything they could lay their hands on, maltreated tbe people, hiHetted thtir officers cm private families, and commit ted the grossest outrages. Tbe consequence was that every Mexican became the deadly foe of tbe French, beshwackieg and annoying them in every way. To this day (hire ia only one feeling as to the French in Mexico—that of cardial The Atlanta Sub.

On the trial of tbe case the jery, under the charge of the Coart, found a verdict in favor of the plaintiff for tbe sum of $70 43 with interest A motion wss made for a new trial on the several grounds stated therein, which granted by the Court, and Um plaintiff excepted. The defendants also excepted to the relieg of the Court, and both bills of exceptions were argued together. A warehouse mao, by tbe law, fa a deposita ry for hire, and is bound only for ordinary diligence. If the defendants exercised that diligence in taking care of the plaintiff’s cotton stored with them which a prodent man would have exercised in protecting and taking care of his own property, and the cotton lest in weight, without thtir fault or negligence, they are not liable for such loss, and it was incumbent on the plaintiff to prove that the loss of tbe weight of tbe cotton wss the re sult of their negligence and want of care, in ■be proper management. It fa not sufficient for the plaintiff to prove that the cotton stored with the pltioiilb lost ia weight, bat he mast go further and prove that the lorn resulted from the negligence, and want of proper care, on the part of the defendants as warehousemen. If 11 bad been shown that tbe defendants by tbe want of proper care and diligence as warehousemen, had exposed the plaintiffs cotton stored with them to alternate rein and aunahioc, and by reason thereof, the cotton bad lost more in w right than it would naturally have done if kept dry, or any other act of negligence on their pan had been shown from which the loss in the weight of tbe cotton had resulted, then, the defendants would have been liable, but nothing of that kind sras proved on the trial. We find no error is tbe charge of tbe Coart to the jury, or in granting the new trill in view of the evidence disclosed in tbe record. The existence of tbe discretion of the Coon below vested ia it by law in granting tbe new trial, bis not been abased in Ibis esse, so as to authorise this Court to interfere and con trol iL Let tbe jadgment of tbe Court below ia both cases be affirmed.

A motion was made in the Court nelow to make an award of aibitretore tbe judgment of tbe Court, to which sundry exceptions were filed. The exceptions were demurred bdng insufficient in law to act aside the award. The Coart sustained the demurrer as to all tbe grounds except one, and tInt one being submitted to the jury, they re lumed a verdict sustaining the award. Ex ceptions were filed to tbe jedgmrnt of tho Court sustaining the demurrer to tbe grounds taken to set aside the award. It appears from tbe record that certain matters of dif ference existod between Caldwell and the other members of the Barnesvilie Manatee- taring Company, that tho parties agreed in writing to submit the matters in controversy between them touching thtir matters of set tlement, involving the correctness and incor of their complainant, and extension baa famed thereon, and has been levied on the lot as tbe property of com plainant, the .defend nt having filed his deed thereto in the Clerk’s office as provided by the statute. If Coughlin and wife recover tbe lot on their title, and Sea go’s title fails then tbe complainant would be entitled in a anil on hie bond for a breach thereof, to re cover tbe value of tbe lot at tbe time of tbe breach with tbe interest thereon, which would include Ihe value of bit improvements. This be cannot do if Seago is permitted to file his deed and sell the lot for tbe unpaid purchase money due therefor, and thereby cancel the complainant's b rod for title as be fa proceeding to do. Tbe complainant's bond for title which be now holds will protect him, for the reason that the measure of dam ages for the breach of aboud for title to land, fa tbe value of Use premises at tbe lime of the breach with interest thereon. Whereas, opon a covenant of warranty of title to land, the damages would be only the purchase money with interest thereon from the time of the sale. Code. 3494-3497.

To tbe granting the injunction and order, tbe defendant excepted. The alleges as a ground for tbe equitable cnee of the Court, that in February 1871, the defendant effered tbe city lot in question for srie at public ancti n, when one Coughlin and wife gave public notice of thtir title to the property, whereupon the defendant as sured the com plain uni and other bidden present, that bis title to the property was peific , that be would warrant it to be so, and would give to the pure' cr a bond with ample security indemnify Um against tbe lues of sny that might be expended in impeovemen otherwise upon a id property. This allega tion is supported by tbe affidavit of Wallace who was present at the time. The complain ant alleges that beesu-e nf tua statement of tbe defendant he purchased the lot for tbe sum of $1,010 10, paying one-fourth of the purchase money therefor, and giving hfa three separate notes for tbe other three- fourths of the purchase money, two of which were paid at maturity, the other was not paid for the muons alleged in complainant's uu The defendant st the time of tbe srie ex cuted and delivered to the complainant bond to make him a title to the lot when the larger than the amount of (he note; bet which, by cotton forwarded them by Riddle was reduced to about $63,000 as claimed by them, on January 35th, 1871.

A single statement would serve to settle this question. Samuel J. Armstrong has a suit to forecloso the $90,009 morti lassignco thereof. B. J. Wil bearer, has brought suit on the $90,000 note. B. J. Wilson £ Co. arc proceeding to enfore the . mortgage and crop liens for the $18,009 (tbe fonr smal ler notes). Eleven thousand of the $13,000 fa admitted to be but part of the same au u claimed in the ninety thousand dollars suits. Thus there are two distinct parties claiming the same debt, each in his own suit, and a Idollan, It third party claiming eleven thousand dollars, a part of tbe same debt, in another suit. It would hardly be possible for a defendant in these various actions by different parties, to protect himself from loss, if not ruin, by any resources that were furnished him by the co t min law or under any equitable be may, by statute, have at law. If each plaintiff obtained the jadgment he fa seek ing, two ot them would have judgments for $63,i 00 each, and one for $18,1 Tiunov i in *'). when it fa admitted that $68,0C0 with TRIPFB.J- interest, or $75,000—if the the $7,000 mort- 1. When it is directed in a will that tbe gage fa not part of tbe $63,000—is all that fa estate of the testator shall be equally divided due.

A writer in the May number ot Lippin- cott’e believes the Queen either is, or ought to be a very wealthy woman, and in support of his belief presents some interesting facts. All tho dubs in Pall Mall, which pay the highest rents in tho city, stand on crown land, but this property suffers much from tho fact that it cannot be sold. Tho whole of tho New Forest is crown land, snd it is csti- malcd that if it could be sold i'Avuulu fetch million 1 , whereas it is now nearly valueless. Of the Queen’s income from various sources, tho writer Says: Her income wss at the beginning of her reign fixed at £185,000 a year. This sum, i; was understood, would, with the exception of £90.000 a year, be divided between tho lord steward, the lord chamberlain, and the mas ter of the house, tho three neat functionaries ot the royal house-bold. Of the residue, £60,000 were to be paid over to the Queen for ber personal expenses, and tbo remain £30,000 were for "contiDgencies.” It probable, however, that tho above arrange ments have been much modified, as time has worked changes. Tbe Prince Consort bad an allowance of £30,000 ayear. TbcQuccn originally wished him to have £100,000, and Lord Melbourne, then Prime Minister, who had immense in fluence over ber, had much difficulty in per susding her that thia sum waa out of the question, and gaining ber consent to the ounty, PenDstlvauis, had borne to i children, fonr girls and one boy. nc fa Danic Lewis..

But bcaidos the previously-mentioned £60.000 a year, and what residue may be un spent from the rest of tho "civil list,” as the £335,000 is called, Queen Victoria has other sources of considerable income. She fain her own right Duchess of Lancaster. Her revenuo from this source has been steadii.- incressing.

After some four . ears the boy quit it, and entered on more industrious pursuits of life, but the girl continued in tbe chase. Drawing herself mere and more from human intercourse and restraint, she haa become a wild woman, fleeing from tbo approach of her kind with speodof a deer. During the early years o’ her solitary life she used to approach her father’s house and entice tho dogs to fulbfw ber, teaching almost any breed ot dogs to become good hunters. In tbe hope of bringing ber back to ber home and to civiliz itinn, ber brother' followed her and shot the dog she had' taken away, using every inducement to get her to g > back with him.

Mrs. Huntington, meanwhile, had her snug larlies and enjoyed htrsclf to tho top of her lent in her own peculiar fashion. She waa proud of her figure and in ita display wss a perfect sorceress. Many maids and matrons since Una walked in forest-land have found it pleasant pastime to daily with tho name of a couchant lion, nnd among Sophia's intimate friend* there were men who were prepared to meet all her wiles and finished coquetry. In Charlie’s absence their utterances were moro dark than oraclca when whispered on tho wings of Dcdona or through the smoke of Delphi. In tho Hamadryad there was a touchof human weakness tlia't tho daughters of O.-canus would have spurned, and from which tho N-ftda were free. Sophia waa not immortal. She prided herself on her beauty. She began to feel that Charlie did not suflicicntiy appreciate her, so sho dressed moro particu larly with an eye lo tho gratification of her guests. Well, all such vanities and vexations of spirit have an cud, Mr. and Mrs. Hunt ingdon left London for New York in Sep tember, 1S71. Somehow they found no rest for Ihe soles of their feet in these United States. Expressions ot parental dissatisfac tion met Sophia in Philadelphia, and the art ful beauty refused to rest till she was once more in Europe. Cora Pearl, Mansfield and others, have been her associates in Paris, and six months since Charlie entirely renounced her, and now intends to pursue his quiet career independent of her, as tho following ’laractcristic letter will show: “Westminster Hotel, London W., I March 20,1873.

This event, wc understand, only precedes by a short time the opening of tho whole road lo Atlanta. Wo trust our “fellow-citizens” ot Rich mond have some idea of the benefits that this alr-Ilnc will confer upon them. Dr. Broadus, in tbe Baptist General Association, in this city, on Saturday last, gave most forcible illustration of these benefits in an nouncing that the Southern Theological Seminary,In Greenville,8.
