FURNACES AND INON OF ADAMS COUNTY.
In the carlier days there sppeared to be considerable quanti- ties of iron ore deposited in the hills in the eastern part of the .mtv, and furnaces were early built to smelt it and work it into iron ware. At one time three furnaces were in operation, but they have all long ceased to operate. . It is aot certainly known why they suspended, but it was probable partly because the ore wa- becoming exhausted,fand partly because others more produc- tive were being opened up in places more accessible to markets.
Dnesn CREEK FURNACE.
This was the first furnace to be put in operation. It was built in 1811, by Paul and McNichol, of Pittsburg. It was located on Cedar rnu, near where the Cedar Mills now stand. The point of its location is some two iniles above the mouth of Cedar run into Brush creek, and why it was named Brush creek we don't know. It passed through the hands of two or three
parties and down to 1838 or '40, it ceased to be no more, and nothing but the plles of debris aro now loft to tell where it stood.

Tobacco culture requires much care and favorable conditions for its successl'ul dovelopment. It demands a temperato climate, and arrives at its perfection in districts favorable to the growth ofthe vine. It exists in numerous varieties, the characteristics of which aro inore or less marked, according to the origin of tire szed and the influence of the soil and climate. Leaving the clas- sification of these varieties to the botanist we may observe thut for the manufacturer, thero aro two categories-the light leaves suitable for the manufacture of cigars and smoking tobacco, and the. strong flavored leaves employed for the production of snuff and chewing tobacco. There are many shades of differeuco in these two classes indicated by the flavor and aroma, and in their leaves for the first named purposes by the higher and lower shades of fines and of resistance of the leaf tissue, and of its suitability for burning. The processes of culture differ but little in any country. The farmer, according to the care he be- stows in preparing the ground, in the selection of the seed, in the planting, harvesting and drying, produces better or inferior crops, dependent of course on the nature of the climate and local influences. Until lately tradition and experience were the two sole guides which the planter possessed ; but now owing to the progress made in agricultural chemistry, certain absolute laws have been deduced, which permit the cultivation to produce with almost unvarying effects the qualities most desired, com- bustibility and richness in nicotine. The long series of experi- ments made by the schools of applied science and manufactures, leaves no doubt on this point. These schools have shown that nat- nral tobacco is combustible when it contains a sufficient propor- tion of salts of potash, and that it is incombustible if the propor- tion is insufficient, and that the test of combustibility or in- combustibility is the presence or absence of carbonate of potash in the ashes. From these observations the practical conclusiou is deduced, that to obtain a good burning tobacco, which is an es- sential quality for smoking, it is necessary to select a soil rich iu potash or to enrich the ground by potash manure. About three hundred pounds per acre is sufficient to fertilize the poorest kind of ground. The strength of tobacco depends on the amount of nicotine it contains, and this quality depends in its turn ou fonr elements, the spacing of the plauts, the number of leaves per plant, and the position of the leaves upon the stalk, and the time of growth. All other things being equal, the proportion of nicotine will be greater, the wider the plants are set spart, the fewer the number of leaves left, the higher the latter aro grown on the stalk, and the later the crops is gathered. Thus the pro- portion of nicotine is reduced fifty per cent. when the number of plants per acre exceeds 5,000 to 8,000. It varies iu proportion of 1 to 127 and 172, according to whether 14, 10 or 6 leaves are left on each plant; and finally by gathering the llavana to- bacco, for example, fifteen days before it has arrived at full ma- turity, the proportion of nicotine is only three per cent. instead of six or seven per cent. which is the normal for ripe plants. From these deductions it results that if he desired to obtain mild tobacco, the plants should be grouped more closely, the leaves be left more numerous ; that in harvesting the foot leaves should be separated from those of the crown, and that the crops should be gathered some short time before the unmistakable signs of maturity are marked. . The planter will find a great advantage in following these indications, for although the leaves are less de- veloped in proportion as the plants are grown nearer together, it is equally sure that tho weight of the crop will be increased by sixty per cent. and the number of plants r. 'sed from 5,000 to 8,000 per acre .< There can be no real objection to an early har- vest, since the weight of the leaf increases scarcely ten per cent. from the time it has reached its full development until it arrives at maturity, that is to say. during a period of time varying from fifteen deys to two months, according to atmospheric conditions.
We have devoted some space to the consideration of these technical details, because they refer to the most remarkable advance made in the culture of tobacco in the last ten years, and it may be added that this is not the only instance iu which pre- cise science has been applied to industrial agriculture, as grent progress has been made in the production of the best root by the application of the principles of agricultural chemistry to the cul- tivation of that vegetable.
As will be seen by the preceding table, the United States is the greatest tobacco producing country in the world. It is grown more or less in nearly all the States, though Va., is far advanced in the amount it produces, whille Ky., stands second with Teun. almost equalling her in the amount produced.

The active principles of the plant reside in the akaloid nico -. tine, nicotia and nicotiuine. The strongest Va., and Ky., contain from six to seven per cent., of nicotine, while some of the milder kind nsed for cigars contain but two per cent. of it.
The medical effects of tobacco npon the system is very mark- ed whether it is taken internally or applied externally. In small quantities taken by either of the methods in which it is commonly used, as smoking, chewing or in sunff, it acts as a se- dative narcotic, calming mental and bodily restlessness, and pro- ducing a state of languor or repose, most agreeable to those ac- customed to its use. In larger quantities or with those unacens- tomed to its use, it causes giddiness, faintness, nausea, vomiting and purging with great debility, sometimes resulting in death Although it may seem to have some medicinal virtues, it is scl- dom used by physicians. Eminent medical men, however, have differed in regard to its effects upon the linman system, whether beneficial or hurtful, as it is commonly used. Even since its in- troduction, many have condemned it for its supposed universally injurious qualities. Its use has nevertheless been constantly increasing among all nations.
If, however, the writer may be permitted to express his indi- vidnal opinion, it would be that the one hundred and twenty millions of dollars annually expended for tobacco in its various forms could be devoted to other purposes that would benefit mankind more than the way in which it is used.
ADAMS COUNTY INFIRMARY.
The Infirmary or Poor-house in this county was . established in 1839. On March 5, of that year the Commissioners bought 211 acres of land of Gco. L. Compton, on Poplar Ridge, about three miles south-east of West Union, for which they paid $2,000.
Aluitions were made to the buildings already on the farm, and were soon occupied by the poor that required public aid, with Mr. Compton as the first Superintendent of the institution, in which capacity he served until his death.
This farm and buildings were used as an Infirmary until about 1858 or '59; for some cause-probably to get a more convenient location, this property was sold Aug. 7, 1853, to Willian Mor- rison, for - and 5214 acres bought Sept. 25, 1858, from James McClanahan, in Liberty towuship, paying $1,767.50 for the same. This location not giving satisfaction the land was exchanged with Geo. S. Kirker, for 6634 acres of land now occupied by the Infirmary buildings.
The deed from the Commissioners was made to Geo. S. Kirker Feb. 2, 1859, and from Kirker to the Commissioners for the want farm, March 16, 1859.
The contract for building the Infirmary was awarded to A. . . Ramsey, April 11, 1859, for $7,833.
The house was completed in 1859, and occupied in the spring of 1860, with William McNeilan, Superintendent.
The average number of inmates for the last ten years has been 60.
EARLY MARRIAGES.
The first law regulating marriages in the territory, was pub- lished in the fall of 1788.
. Sce. 1, provided that males of the age of fourteen, and not prohibited by the laws of God, might be joined in marriage. Scc. 2, provides that any of the Judges of the General Court or Common Pleas, or ministers of any religious society within the districts in which they reside, may solemnize marriages.
S .c. 3. provides that before being joined in marriage, the parties should give notice of their intentions by having them proclaimed for the preceding Sabbaths in their congregation, c .: notices'in writing under the hand and seal of one of the Judges before mentioned, or a Justice of the Poace of the county, and posted in some publie place in the town where the parties re- xpectively reside, or a license may be obtained from the Governor under his hands and scal, authorizing the marriage, without the publication aforesaid.
A supplementary act was passed Aug. 1, 1792, embracing every Justice of the Peace to solemnize marriages In their own conties, after publication as aforesaid or upon license.
Commencing with the first marriage certificate found on the
county records, the following list 'embraces all the marriages that took place in the county down to Jan. 1, 1800:
