The anthracite-coal sent to market from | the three great coal fields is 13,6,1,257 tons, against 12,612,303 tons in 1867, an Increase of 1,161,864 tone, notwithstanding a long suspen sion of prodhctlQß In the Schuylkill region in consequence of a strike on tho part of the opera tives; bbt sb the production of the year be fore was diminished in about cqud quantity from the SBme cause in- another region, perhnpß this may he considered as a chronic and normal afflic tion ot .thiß tf'ade, and that this increase of 1,000,- 000 to 1,250,000 tons is about the legitimate in creaseoFthis product, andas nOoVer-pf eduction or over-stocfolß apparent from the present prices, it may be taken as a fair conclusion that the con sumption of the country will absorb fully this in crease in the future qb in the past, “If the bituminous fields have been equally pro ductive, and it is cortain that they have, the total product of theßtatohasnot been less than 18,000,- 000 tons. The price at the collieries has been-at least $2 50 per ton. , From this it is seen that fully $45,000,000 have been distributed among the producers. Fully an equal amount has been received within our borders by transporters and dealers. c sincc'an estimate of w per ton at the State tide is within the average price of the year. This product may safely be set down at 00,000,- 000 , „ “But the artiele-of petroleum has transceded in quantity all estimate and one may almost say, all bounds. The export has been: 1867. 1868. 33,834,133 52,803,202 .29,437,420 40,505,620 New Y0r1:...

It is not unreasonable to suppose, Indeed, it is cer tain. that these would, If added, close up the full 100,000,000 gallons of export. The prices at Phil adelphia have ranged from 23}<fc., the lowest, to 34c., about the hienest, for refined. Of the whole export, about 8 per cent, has been crude, which has been worth from 11 to 18c. Estimating front these data, tho export value at port of ship ment has been fully $27,000,000, in currency,and were it not that this vaßt and rapidly increasing production has outrun the consumption, also enormous ■ and, ’ ihcrcaslng, this article alone ought to, and would have, at its real intrinsic value aB compared with any il luminating substance in existence, been worth at least 100,000,000 gold dollars. Before petro leum was discovered, the kerosene oil made trom bituminous coal, retailing at $1 40 per gallon, wus faßtsuperceding ail other illuminators. Ifit should prove in‘tho future that we are exhaust ing our reservoir of this article, .it will bo a sub ject of great regret that wo do not now adopt some means to husband onr resources In the pre sent. If we had exported but 50.000,000 gallons the past year, and could by any uaeaDS have re tained for future use the rest, it is certain that this moiety would .have realized to uses much as th e whole has done. >t “The rate of increase in shipments has betat Gallonsj 1,183,(552 1860. 18G7... 1868... “The domestic consumption added to this ex port would'show that the world has taken for consumption not lees than 140,000,000 gallons of this remarkable product, and a value of over $37,000,000 In our currency, “The exact mSEIs tics of Iron production for the year 1868 cannot yet be quoted. From the re turns already received by the secretary of the Iron-ond.Steel Association, no greater increase over the production ol last year is anticipated than the Increase of 1867 over 1860. “The production for 1868 upon this basis would be: Of pig iron of all kinds From the forgos and bloomeries And of rails.
