ROBBING GRAVES OF THEIR DEAD MMliiiiiln- li.l tn tobacco, We have lately receivi d four elegant steel engravings, published by Messrs. Stiuson 4 Co. All are very fine works of high art, aud do credit to the publishers. Theso engravings aro very laiyo, thirty by forty inchea each; the original paintings, and the steel plates,' cost some ilnity-threo thousand dollars. The engravings are sold at $15 00 per copy. To engrave a single pie 16 of this size and descnp'isti of workmanship, requires t' e labor of a most skillful artist from one to two years, aud often longer. Theso elegant engravings are entitled " Sing Birdie, Sing," " Remembrance," '-The Bather's Attendant," aud "The Garden Gate." pear I.ikc llutlleiiielits. THE IRON INDUSTRY.

There is no reason why they should not go on as soon as these are completed,.pud It will not take over ten d iys to complete them. He denies that the company are short of orders, and says that they have work on which to begin as soon as the mills are ready.
