Tho Quality tof the Metal In thta Section of the Country* We cannot too often call public atten tion to the vast mines of wealth that lie embedded in the mountains and hills con tiguous to Rome, the centre of tho iron trade and interest in this section of Geor gia and over in Alabama. All that is necessary to develop the dormant wealth of this country is capital and the demand for iron. That Rome is destined to be a Southern Pittsburg there can he no doubt. If our own people have not tho means to utilize this vast wealth for themselves, capitalists from elsewhere will comb and avail themselves of the great field for productive wealth which lie, as it were, at our very doors. We should prefer our own citizens to reap the benefit of such advantages, but we are too poor to devel- ope them, and must leave that for those who come among us to accomplish the work. Wo ought to have several foundries in Rome. The black smoke of furnaces ought to ascend in dark volumes from every part of our little city; and every man who invests his capital and his ener gies in developing these groat sources of wealth deserves the sympathy and the support of our people, and all the trade of tho country, in the line of such enter prises should be directed to home indus try. We know the times are hard and tht^t the financial condition of the coun try is not propitious for the inauguration of such vast works involving so much capital; but those who take the risk should bo well sustained by the trade and encouragement of our people. There are two enterprises in Rome that should become the pride of our people to sustain. SVe refer to tho Rolling Mill and the Hollow-ware works—the propri etors of both establishments having in vested their capitatl here to the great ad vantage of our city. In the midst of a financial stagnation without a parallell in the history of this country, both in regard to its stringency and long duration, tho Messrs. Noble Brothers & Company, have leased and put in operation a most gigantic enter prise, which, for months, had been idle. It was no small undertaking. It requir ed nerve and bravery to take hold of the Rolling Mill at such a time, and it "Will require the nurture of a generous patron age and support to keep them in opera tion, The merchants and business men of this section should see to it that they are-well sustained. In putting the Rolling Mill into oper ation again, the Messrs* Nobles have se cured tho services of Mr. Thomas B. Harris, of Allentown, Pa., an iron-mas ter of forty years of successful experi ence, as general superintendent of the mill. Mr. Harris was foreman of an iron mill in Allentown for twelve years, and is familiar with all the grades of iron produced in the great iron regions of Pennsylvania.. He is pleased with tlie iron of this section and says it will compare favoipbly with that of any section in the world. He says the iron is good for all smith purposes, is tenacious and its tech nical strength is from sixty to sixty-fiVe thousand pounds per square inch. The iron is of a neutral character aud can be readily worked hot or cold and with out a flaw, and is little liable to break age. He exhibited specimens of round iron nearly an inch in diameter which was bent double as readily as a hickory stick without producing a flaw in so doing. Mr. Harris says it is most excel lent iron for the base of railroad iron on account of its great strength nnd little liability to breakage. The iron employed at the Rolling Mill is from the Woodstock, Cornwall, iEtna and other furnaces, mixed to suit the work needed. Merchant bar, of various sizes, car-axles, railroad spikes, cut spikes and nails are now being made—all made of tho very best material. The nails are of the best quality susceptible of being bent into chain links without flaw or breakage. The amount of iron used is about an av erage of ten tons daily; its fullest capac ity would bo about twenty tons—tho nail factory turning out about two hundred kegs per day. Twenty tons of coal is now daily used. The number of skilled and unskilled workmen employed is be tween seventy-five and a hundred, their wages ranging from a dollar to fivo dol lars each per day. We refer to theso works particularly as an illustration of what might be done hero in Rome if we had the .capital, and what will be done in the future as the fi nancial condition of the country becomes more encouraging and tlie great interests of this section aro known and better un derstood. There is no town in the South more greatly blessed with every element of success and prosperity than Rome. Wtth a climate unprecedentedly healthy, surrounded with a fine agricultural coun try inhabited by an industrious and. thrifty people; with iron, coal, slate and other minerajs in close proximity : with the*means of transportation in every di rection by rail and river navigation; we say wo do not see what is to prevent Rome and this section of country from being the most wealthy in the South in the near future if we eon only induce the capital here neoeesary to each develop ment. Rome presents to moneyed men a most inviting fickl for' operations in tho iron business. Capital in this industry will pay handsome dividends in the future as the times become hotter. There is im* monso wealth in our hills and mountains, and it only requires intelligent enterprise and judicious investments'to Secure it. Lecture To-night at tho City Hall. Capt. John H. Wooldridge, a blind ex-Confederate soldier, having adopted the lecture field as a means of support, will lecture to-night at the City Hall. His subjeot will be “Success in, Life,” He is strongly endorsed by Gov. Jno.C. Brown of Tennessee over tho great seal of that State. A recont notice of Capt. Wooldridge’s lecture in the. Nashville Union and American says that he was greeted with an audience the previous night in Edgefield “of which any speaker may feel proud. Tho close at tention and frequent applause fully at tested the kind appreciation of the speaker’s merits. The lecture had a delightful effect. As an intellectual production it shows thought and the most careful preparation, being replete with tho finest touches of wit and humor sparkling with gems of fancy and adorned with pleasing creations of the imagination and yet eminently practical and instructive. His satire and irony are particularly happy, and his delivery easy, graceful and natural.” The admisson to-night will be 25 cents; tickets to be obtained at the bookstores. Lecture begins at 8 o’clock. m m ► Iuteruatioual Exhibition. The Centennial commissioner is now prepared to receive applications for space in the buildings and grounds of the International Exhibition. Those who expect to exhibit anything should make their intentions known as soon as convenient as they may have as much space as will be needed. . Thos. J. Perry, of this city, has been furnished with blank forms of applica tions and necessaiy information and re quested to attend to the getting up and fowarding articles to the exhibition. We hope that the citizens generally, especially our manufacturing establish ments, will see to it that Cherokee Geor gia and Alabama are well represented, It will afford them an excellent oppor tunity of showing to tho world what ele ments of wealth we have hero.

The Atlanta Herald, of Saturday, contained these lines: “ The Eternal City is moving in the way of a cotton factory, and Willing ham says the advantage of one in Rome is conceded.” The Herald makes the mistake of saying that “ tho Eternal City is mov ing in the way of a cotton factory.” The article of The Courier did not so state. The object was to arouse an in terest in that direction if possible. We would be glad to chronicle such a movement, and hope that ive may be able to do so soon. The Grand Gift Concert. The Shelby (Ala.,) Guide in calling attention to the grand gift concert, to be given here on tho 31st of March under tho management of Nick Carnochan says : “ We have known Mr. Carnochan from boyhood, and can assure tho public that they - can have no better guarantee of the success of tho concert and fairness ot the distribution, than that he has tho management of it.” Tlie Rome Courier. The Cherokee (Ala.) Advertiser of last week gave The Courier this en dorsement: “We received a pleasant call on Monday, last from Capt. Dwi- nell, editor and proprietor of The Rome Courier.
