Pittsburgh-its Statistics in 1836.
The Pittsburgh factory is owned by Messrs. Black- stock, Bell & Co., which operates 72 power looms-and the Phoenix, by Messrs. Adams, Allen & Co., which has 76. The others, the Eagle for instance, owned by Messrs Arbuckles & Avery, are confined altogether to spinning; the Union, belonging to Mr. Geo. Beale, to fine numbers only.
-
There are two Rope Walks within the vicinity of the city; the principal one is owned by Messrs. John Irwin & Son, and located in Alleghenytown; the other by Messrs. Smith & Guthrie, situate near the United States' Arsenal, and but recently gone into operation. Mr. Ir- win, who is a native of Pittsburgh, and has always re- sided in it, has been established in the rope making bu- siness $5 years; and now, in connexion with his son, carries it on more extensively, having in operation a steam engine, and uses the patent machinery. They manufac- ture about a ton of hemp per day, consume 20 bushels of coal in the same time, employ about 50 men and boys, and make about $80,000 worth of cordage a year. The hemp is mostly Russian or Manilla.
The Walk of Messrs. Smith & Guthrie is not ex- ceeded in size, and capacity for performance, by any other establishment of the kind in the western country; and the cordage already manufactured, is an evidence of its good quality in every respect.
There are not as many Paper Mills in this vicinity as formerly-the cause I have not understood, but should be inclined to think that the coal particles and soot would injure the appearance, at least, of the paper. A Mr. Cramer, as I have been informed, owned, at an early day, a paper mill here-in the year 1800 he could only

collect 260 pounds of rags for it-in 1813 he collected 70,000 pounds. Mr. G. W. Holdship, and Messrs. Pat- terson, Forrester & Co. are engaged in manufacturing paper; but their mills do not come within the vicinity of the city so far as to be incorporated with its statistics.
Union paper mill, which is situated about two miles down the Ohio river, is the only establishment of the kind nearer than Beaver .* At this mill 30 hands are an- nually employed-26,700 bushels coal consumed-and the value of the paper manufactured each year is gener- ally about $20,000.
The Pittsburgh Chemical Manufactory is situated on the south side of the Ohio, about one mile below the city, established by Messrs. Shinn. Sellers &. McGill. The main building, which is of brick, is 193 feet in length, by SO in breadth, and two stories high. This establish- ment has been only a short time in operation, but it is the design of the proprietors to manufacture all the chemicals, which may be made in this country to advan- tage ; they have already one Leaden Chumber for the manufacture of oil of vitriol, 30 feet long by 20 wide, and 12 high, and a steam engine for grinding and pulveriz- ing-connected with which is a dye-wood cutter, capable of chipping from two and a half to three tons per diem-
*I intended to have visited this interesting and growing village, but circumstances prevented. From good authority, it bids fair to become a great manufacturing place. The land around it is fertile, water privileges great, (the aggregate fall in five miles being 69 feet, sufficient for 500 mills; and iron ore, coal, timber, &c., in great abundance within a short distance. It contains about 1.500 inhabitants, is in the centre of Beaver county, on the river of the same name, at its couflux with the Ohio, and 28 miles below Pitts- burgh.
107

and also an Oil mill, the press of which is constructed upon the hydraulic principle. The distillations and evaporations are carried on principally by steam heat, and thus is obviated, in a great measure, the danger of explosions, from a contact of combustible vapors with the naked fires, the stills being separated by a brick wall from the apartment in which the steam is generated.
The White Lead manufactories, beside the foregoing, are seven ; those of Messrs. Avery, Ogden & Co .; Ma- deira & Aston, H. Brunot, and Gregg & Hagner, (that of the latter producing $31,200,) are extensively engaged in business, and furnish very generally, the western and south western markets. Total amount estimated at $241,200.
There are also one or two other Linseed Oil manufac- tories, (besides that of Messrs. Shinn, Sellers & McGill,) owned by Messrs. T. Hays & Co. which manufacture an- nually about 12,000 bushels flaxseed-productive value estimated at S50,000.
There are two Plough manufactories, which operate largely, by steam power. At that owned by Messrs. C. & (). O. Evans are annually prepared for breaking up, or fallowing, as well as for lighter ploughing, 4,000 ploughs-and at another establishment, (Hall's, below Allegheny-town,) 100 are made daily ; making the ag- gregate of the two, for a year, about $4,000. Cultiva- tors, and many other implements of husbandry, are also manufactured at both establishments ; but the ploughs from the latter are generally designed more for lands on the lower Mississippi, or for cotton lands there or else- where, than for lands of a more tenacious soil. In the

absence of better testimony the amount of the aforesaid manufactures may be computed at $174,000.
Two or three Brass and Lead pipe foundries, are also in operation-besides establishments for planeing. wire- drawing, cracker-making, brewing, grinding bark, turn- ing, &c. all of which are by the power of steam.
The number of Steam Engines, in operation, is pro- bably not known correctly by any individual ; but those who are considered the better informed on such subjects concur in the opinion, that there are about one hun- dred and twenty-five !
The number of Smitherics is prodigious-in one shop are sixteen forges.
Of the mechanics who manufacture articles of trade, there are 7 Stone cutting establishments, and 2 Buhr- Millstone manufactories-10 Tanneries-5 Breweries- 7 Tobacconists-besides Copper and Tin plate-workers, Saddlers and Saddle tree-makers, Brush makers, Cabinet and Chair-makers, Tallow chandlers and Soap-boilers, Screw and Lock manufacturers, Hatters, Boot and Shoe- makers, Tailors, Printers and Book-binders, Painters and Glaziers, Upholsterers, &c with many others usually found in large business cities. I have found it difficult, however, to collect such information, as I am desirous of possessing in reference to the productive value of the busi- ness generally, of those whom I have here named, and must consequently forego any estimate on the subject, farther than what I can come at by comparison, and such opinions as a few observing men have expressed, the re- sult of which is about $6,000,000.

In the foregoing establishments, including the Water Works, the quantity of coal consumed, it will be per- ceived, amounts this year, to 3,512, 100 bushels. This is distinct from that used in the other factories and work- shops to which I have merely referred as existing :-- neither is reference had to the quantity consumed on board of steamboats; or to that consumed for domestic purposes ; such as warming of rooms in winter, and for the purpose of cooking, at all seasons :- the quantity, therefore, used "in the other factories and workshops," can be ascertained only, with any degree of correctness, by the rule of proportion : and by working the question,

the result will be found to exceed 2,200,000 bushels ; which, added to the ascertained sum, will swell it to 5,712,000.,
In a population of $0,000, or upwards, there are pro- bably from 4,500 to 5,000 families ; and, as many of them are engaged in keeping hotels, boarding houses, restaurats, &c. by estimating the annual consumption of coal therefore for domestic purposes, apportioning to each family, on an average, 382 bushels, which is only a frac- tion over a bushel a day ; the allowance, I think, is full small-nevertheless, the amount is 2,000, 000 bushels.
All the steamboats, on leaving the port, have as much coal on board as they can receive without incommoding freighit or passengers. Assuming the fact, that there are ISO days in the year in which two boats depart, and that each one averages 150 bushels, taken on board, the num- ber thus consumed is 52,000 bushels.
'The quantity annually exported, must also be estima- ted, by comparison-and as 328, 500 bushels were float- ed down the river in one fleet of 73 flat boats, it would not be presuming too much, perhaps, to estimate one boat for every two days. on an average, through the year-and estimating the average by the quantity admitted in the former instance, and the number of bushels exported will be 810,000.
The aggregate of coal, according to the foregoing cal- culations, annually consumed in Pittsburgh for all pur- poses, including the quantity exported, may therefore be set down at 8,550,000 bushels-which, at 4 1-2 cts. (last summer's price) per bushel, the amount is $384,750.
'The question, by this time, is perhaps secretly asked, " where are all the men who quarry this coal, and
-
Pittsburgh-its Statistics in 1836. 111
where are the teams to haul it?" There is no great dif- ficulty in answering these two questions: the men and teams are here. The quantity of coal daily (task) quarried and passed out of the drift, is 100 bushels for each man -this is understood and performed-consequently, it requires only 285 men to overcome this objection: and as it regards the teams-it has been before stated, that much of the coal is quarried from hills, which form the banks of rivers, along side of which boats are placed, and the coal is precipitated into them-it is not unlikely that a quarter, or a third, of the above quantity, is con- veyed to its place of designation in this way: from many of the openings or drifts, are rail roads, (one on the back of Coal hill is 2 1-2 miles long,) on which the coal is conveyed to the boats or wagons-and 20 teams of 120 horses, will haul 1,440.000 bushels in a year: this is another fact which can be established by usage, from the period that constant hauling was established as a busi- ness. It is therefore only necessary to increase the num- ber of boats or teams, (you now know to what extent.) and the year's business is done within the year.
Total number of hands employed in the Rolling Mills, Foundries, Glass Works, Cotton Factories, Rope Walk and Paper Mills, is 2.940.
The amount of sales of dry goods, groceries, drugs, hard ware, china and other articles coming under the head of foreign merchandize, or merchandize not manu- factured in Pittsburgh, I have no data on which to form an opinion-so with the commissions on sales at auction, and those charged by commission and forwarding mer- chants. In a weekly journal published here, in the form of a prices current, conducted by Mr. Isaac Harris, a

writer who writes in mercantile language, asserts, that " the manufactures and mechanical products, and sales of all kinds, foreign and domestic, may be estimated at from twenty to twenty-five millions of dollars" the pre- sent year.
Amount of tolls received on the whole of the Penn- sylvania canal, from Nov. 1, to Oct. 18, 1836-1 year less 12 days-$825,534 S5. How far Pittsburgh par- ticipates in this, I know not; but merely give it as an article of news.
From the 1st April to 1st Oct. last, the following ar- ticles were exported from this place east on the canal, viz: Bacon, S,619,068 lbs .; Lard, 210,455 do .; Flour, 39,578 bbls. ; Feathers, 49, 875 lbs .; Deer Skins, 85,472 do .; Tobacco, 4, 144,255 do .; Wool, 816,177 do.
The amount in bulk of various articles of Merchan- dize, sent from this city down the Ohio, or brought to it, during the year, is estimated at 146,400 tons. The tonnage of the various steamboats. subject to wharfage for the same time, amounted, during the same period, to 74,734 tons.
The amount of Lumber from the Allegheny river, last year, measured here, was near 9,000,000 feet-this . year it amounted to only 7,028, 814 feet. [Peck says, 30,000,000 fect are brought down the Allegheny an- nually, and sent down the Ohio. ]
In 1834, there were 24,681 bbls. of Salt, of all kinds, inspected-last year, 18,2: 3 bbls-and this year, 17,460 bbls of all kinds-all domestic.
Flour, Butter, &c., and other articles of provisions, are not subject to inspection-Liquors are.
