Indeed the quantity for the rnanufrchwing, of salt, a lone, is comput
ed to be 100,000 tons a year. Nor does the .consumption stop,
here. The lake trade—the supply of the western country by the
lakes, and the various canals, must in a great measure! look to this
channel for their supplies. and indeed, altogether front 'the North : .

point it can be shipped to the Can:ldes and to all the upper Lakes •
through the Welland canal. We regard one fact as certain that the
Wyoming anthracite and the Bradford and Tioga bituminous coal,
must and w ill come in for nearly all, if not wholly the consunip,
lion of those minerals in the vast and growing Empire tO•the Multi
an d we s t. Our opinion is that the ttem of anthracite coal which
'would pass Northwardiftw tl • te fro year on the North - Branch Ca.'
nal. would be 2,00.00 a tons, and increasing annually 100,000 for
a period of ten years; and the item of bituminous passing both in
the North and the South 50.000 and increasing in the same ratio."
it Our State is alike distinguished fur its inexhanstable beds of
I r mo Ore a:4 as mineral coal. Both have been spread through
out our whale Valley with an unsparing hand. The Iron ore so
far as examinations have been made, proves to be of an excellent .
quality. Becent and heavy investments have been made for the
in tinutacioring of iron in the county of Columbia. which we be.
I, e ,e are but the beginning of those laudable efforts that must and

rend.: published description of one e4toblislunent—the,Muntointion
Works.--located at Dativale, whicb.description is believed mite cot
rect :—.• The works now count - leted, and in full operation,- are 260 •
feet long, and 160 - feet wide: They 'consist of twenty-IW° puddling
furnaces, two ball and six heating furnaces for rails..ati'd three-or (burr.

They average ninety tons of pig iron per week, , and forte tons: °ilia.

ter, these works are unsurpassed in the world: An iirder Was a short

[talon to the works already completedand in operatiOn, the company
have a blast furnace nearly finished. which they calculate Will make
one hundred and fifty- tons of pig iron per week. They Asti design
adding, next sprung, one hundred and sixty feet to the works, for the
purpose of driving a sheet-iron and rolling mill for merchant iron."
In view of thethusiness now dope. its rapid increase, and with reason
able anticipations of the future, the mind knows not where to place a
limit for the extent of the Susquehanna iron busine s s, when time
shall hare more fully matured and perfected their wotks, oral the
great thoroughfares and communications therewith shall have been
completed.
Now, considering the unsurpassed advantages of the North Branch
Canal—its location in a coal and iron region—the inexhaustible
quantities of those minerals adjacent to its very margin, with a vast
and unbounded market to
,stapply-:- 7 togethee with the Other species-or
tonnage which have been alluded to, may not a' reasonable hope he

remit! as mortifying to the pride of Pennsylvanians, as it was
ous to the public treasury, in beitirilius deprived of the greattadvan,
taaes anti, i c ated from this, the best branch of their improv'etn9Mo.':
But to sustaitk,lier fitklity and enable the people of the states Of Nev .
York and Pennsylvania to reap the many advantages which there*.
pet-tett to derive from the accomplishment of the original plan-- , -a con
nection of the canals of the stao4—the Legislature of Pennsylvania
incorporated a company by the name, style and title of the •• North
Branch Canal Company," with extremely generous and liberal ad
vantiges and inducements to finish said eanal. This cfnriOny have
subscribed the stork, nrganized and paid in an instalthent, with the
view of recommenehe , operations as soon as provision shall be made
by the Legislature of New lork for extending and connecting the
Cite:ming and Chenango canals with the North Branch, either
public or private means.
We have the grattlyilio intelligence that the people of New York,
witba view to reciprocal advantages, are petitioning their Legisla
ture for the necessary enactments upon the subject. If the requisite
laws should he promptly passed by the New York legislature. we
have strong assurances, dual the North Branch canal will be completed

Time and events having now placed the accomplishment of this
Croat syslrm of improvenietits within reach"; will net the millions in-
Prested in it, by united exertiou. secure the advantages of it to them
selves and to their posterity ! But where, it may be asked, are we
to look for action that may consummate these invaluable advantages ?
We answer. to the consumers of anthracite coal in the state of N. Y.
In turning our attention, for a moment, to the northern side of the
line, we do . not deem it necessary to waste time in endeavoring to
coirince the people of the state of New York, that the time for ac
tion in reference mauthonzing the connection of those canals has ar
riv,ll. They eannot hat be sensible of its pressing importance to
them, and therefore will nut mint to obtain Intim their Leaislatioe, at
;
early day of their present session, the requi-Ito provisions, item- •
nal as it is the intention of the , North Branch Canal Company,
tit po,nowng•e, earls the rOM 1!1 , 4' sprimi, to press on this!'itork
Nimniction to the stilt, him—provided the connection be
:nu:lionized this winter. We castor. therefore, suppose that those
wh,, h are b ero m e s o rrnt,rltial. as the einzeng of the state of New
York, for,thetr and rflirtet,t ariton in securing such im
mense hencitts from their wide-spread improvements, will now be
indlitiqpiiit. and seifer this invaluable connection to be delayed a
whole rear, inertly for the Wllllr of the necessary legislative enact
numt at this ti:tw.

their supplies by the cheapest mode of couve) twee, atid without

connection?

would 'he, in effect, a eononuation_of the came canal.
We liave data by which tp ascertain the amount of
tolls received on the Chenango and Chemung canals, but we are
informed that the net revenue, which the state derives from these
sources. after deducting current expenses and repairs is, if any
thing. l'ery small.
A connection of these cenalq, with,the North Branch completed,
would not, in all rcasonabie probability, fad to increase their ton
nage. to speak wittrinbounds, at least twentyfold. And add to
this increase, the tont' of the hundreds of thousands of tons of coal
and iron per annum, which, through this, chalinel; NVOUW ‘ be put
upon the great Erie canal. and it would constitute an, hero in the
Treasury, which, even hs the great and prosperous state of New
