AEPANAII ANNUAL prow,

i ,- ••
The /I '
of Trade now preeent to the coal mining association, their Eleventh
Annual post, m which they have endeavoured to point out the gene and Con
dition of co al trade.
The b during the year proceeding our last report wse varied hi the
extreme,g ' • at one time at, a complete stand and et another moving ost with
• force.
The
: gear has been se different from the preceding one as posslide, the
business ving generally progressed with a steely but rather sluggish pace.
Wbet4speaking of a sluggish pace, we bring into comparison the preceding
year in hich there was 92,000 tom of coal moremitied from this district than
in thelear just past. 180 that in of increasing our business, as we
elittithad
hoped were prepared to do, we have receded from the product of 1837
nearly 10,000 tons; such a movement it might reasonably be supposed would
be felt all engaged in the twitter, and it was.
This fal li ng offin the business of the past ion was the consequence of so
large a a of coal remaining unconnuned on the first of Ap ri l last.
The Hewing table , exhibits the product of the Several mining districts for the
past y , with the amount on hand at the openirig of the navigation:

i .
Of the amount mined from the Wilkesbarre Mines the past season, we ariX
ignorant, but it does not affect the Atlantic markets, ak it is entirely consumed
in the interior. .
• The Coal mined on the Shamokin the past year, has also been consumed far
the vall of the Susquehanna ; though when t* . Susquehanna Canal is com-:.
pleted tide water (which is expected in all the fitment year) this will not bti . ,
the as this grand canal will afford an exce ll ent outlet into , the Chesapeake:
Bay for all the Coal mined on the Susquehaun ie and its tributaries. . From the
Mesa e the Coal can be shipped to any market , though to the:Southire
i
mar* with more advantage than to Philadelphka and'Eastern markets.
Of t* Coal sent from Pinegrove, only 809 tens reached Philadelphia, and
30,390 lions of what was entered on the Schuylkill, was taken fort the supply of
places along the line of the canal, makinea total of 42,581 tons from.these twq
places that did not reach tide water. ,
Of the amount disposed of in a similar manner from the mines of the Lehigh'
and Lafkawana, we have no positive knowledge; but estimating from the popu4
lation 'abiting the sections of country through :, which the Coal from these
mines : transported, we are led tosonclude that the amount must very consider
rably e ceed that consumed on Steinke of the Sdhuylkill and Union canals.
The fo llowing ,
i
- table shows the amount of Anthracite Coal sent to market fot
several successive years, and the amount communed u nearly as could be arriv
cid at b. , estimates that were made each year of the stock on hand the Ist of April;

It ismopestary here to remark that in our last report inadvertently an error Rini
committed in stating that there was no Coal remaining unsold in the market on
the 1s! of April 1837, whereas there was then 50,000 tons; as we have stated in'
the prices:ding table.
It;lrOpears that there was 5805 tons of 'llitumin . ons Coal be tight to market
Paring the past year, by way of the Union and !Schuylkill canals. Of the whole
product of this extensive region, or of the amount sent. to market by the other
— routed, we have no precise information. .
The quantity of Coal sent to market this year, with the stock on hand the
Ist o April ril o last, we believe will be folly equal to the demand, notwithstanding
the
NoveMber last„ up-to the present time.
s hit there wiH has
That there will be a scarcity felt in some places, while others have much
more !than they require, we have no doubt; and this is a state of things over
whicli we can not have any control, but must leave it to those to regulate who
who linow more intimately the wants of the community which they Mulertlike
-to supply with the article of fueL
It a; not the interest of those engaged in mining Coal that a scarcity should
he felh at any point, hut that there should be a full and ample supply, in order
that those who use this article may feel assured of being able; at all tunes; of
obtaining a sufficiency.
_ .
It has frequently been asserted that the Colliers were endeavoring to create a
panic, or to produce an excitement on an apprehended scarcity of this article;
.but those persons who promulgate such as their opinions, can know but little of
regular business of any .kind, or they. would' know that it never was the interest
of anil class of individuals engaged in business to produce sudden changes And
fludiatioreq this suits none but those who are mere speculators hi articleq of
prim: necessity.
The experience derived since 1830 from our busiressi: must have satiated
every one engaged in lt that"the various fluctuations to which it has been Sub
jected, has been to us a signal injury instead of a benefit; and has operated in
the Maw mariner on consumers, though in a minor degree. •
hi must be evident to every one who will investigate the subject, duct 4 the
wrong direction of the active labor of the country, so as to pritduce a grest;ex
cons tifany articles above the wants of the community, must increase the Cost
of hying; inasurtich as it abstracts labour frcrm other branch 4 Of busineulthe
prorAucts of which will fall far short of the necessities of the hblic, and their
cost is increased in a greater ratio than -the cost of article. in which there ii an
emit% is redneeoe, because many of those who have large stocks of any article
on timid more than ht rexpiirred, have ability to hold them, and' do so in pnifer
ence to melting them at a great riser
in one case there is a great amount of capital lying whew, in the othar m inot
anffirdent to meat our wants: , it is We a farmer who ham misdirected his Ma t te
and raised more hay than he knows what to. do with, and not sufficient gisin

be aid, that such a thing is shribst impaMarle, but there can be no doubt, putt

A Committee, previotedi sprinted by the Colliers, proceeded (Mete 27th
of August last, in company with Mr. Coax, the builder, to test the corm:tines
of the Weigh Locks on the line of Caul, and after spending more than a week
in a minute and laborious investigatkes, they made a report that showed such
trifling discrepancies between the Weigh Lock weight and* cargo as weighed
into the boat, that the Bales may be considered as virtually correct. 'This in
vestigation was commenced in consequence of the great loss sustained in the
weight of Cool for some Mee past, and the result goer to show that the deficiency
is not produced by incorrectness of the Bader, but we think much of it will be
found in the incorrect register of the light weight of boats, 111 warrilhistrided io
the boat used in testing the Locks; her registered weight being 12 tons 6 cwt.
' and her weight, as ascertained by the Cemmittee, was 14 tons, beingadifference
of 1 ton 6 cwt and in some cases there is no doubt a greater error then this.
We see no other way to correct this evil than to pursue the comae teem
-, mended in our last report, of having the boats frequently weighed.
The toll on our Canal has.been considerably reduced since its first opening,
both by lessoning the actual charge and by improving the canal; yet we think it
should be still farther reduced tri bring us into fair competition with the Lehigh
and Lackewana Coal Raglans, in the Eastern markets; and that the Navigation
Company can well afford to do so, is evidenced by the rise of their Stock from
the par value of 50 dollars, to 160 dollars per share.
The following table shows the increase of the average tonnage'of the Boats
on the Canal since its first opening.

Tons, 91.18,988
Here we have an increased average in 13 years of 29 tons, being more than
the boats actually carried when the canal first went into operation; showing
very plainly that the Navigation Company have not been idle since the line of
communication wee first opened. -
The Rail road between Reading and Philadelphia is completed as far as Nor
ristown, and the portion between Norristown and Philadelphia le In progress,
and the Engineers report, that it will be completed by August next.
From Reading to this place, some of the heavy sections are now under contract,
and it is probable that it will be completed in about two years.
The Engineers state that the transportation on the rail road, has so far been
effected to a great extent with Anthracite Coal, and that they believe it to be
in all respects the most advisable and the most economical fuel, for the heavy
description of engines contemplated for the accommodation of the Coal trade.
Anthracite has long since been introduced into the Steam boat for geseratin,g
steam, by the Lehigh Company, and more recently by Stockton & Stevens' in
some of the ferry boats about New Yak and in one or more of the Boats ply
ing between New York and Amboy, and they are perfectly satisfied with the
result of the trial they have given it. We have been informed that they con
template making the necessary arangement this winter, to use this fuel on some
of their boats, plying between New York and Albany.

When the Atlantic Steamer, the Liverpool, was in New York, experiments
w • made on board of her with this fuel which proved highly satisfactory.
In our last report we observed that Anthracite bad been successfully used in
Wake for smelting Iron, and'we gave as our opinion, that before anther year,
it would cease to be ap experiment in this country; and so it has, as is fully Ulna-
traced by a furnace on the Lehigh working with this fuel alone to the entire
satisiiiction of the proprietors, Messrs. High, &c.
In 1834, the process of puddling erre:ming Iron with Anthracite, was tried by
Messrs- Buckley & Swift of this place, and the practicability of it flay shown,
and there is now on the Little Schuylkill a puddling furnace, belotigkig to Mr.
Bartolet, in operation with Anthracite and a small portion of wood intermixed.
That the operations in the Maaufacture of Iron will in the course of a few
years, consume a large quantity of Coal, there ern hardly remain a doubt even
in the minds of the most sceptical.
Tho great amount of c.a. that will he used for various purposes, as in ma
kin glron, generating steam in stationary Engines. Steam Boats & Locomotives,
in burning lime, and for all the domestic purposes of life, might induce some per
sons less acquainted with the subject than ourselves, to think that a semeity of
the article must be the inevitable consequence. But when we bring belibie their
notice the,great resources from whence the supply will come, they will certainly
mite with'ua- in believing that ninny generations must come endings away be
fore such a result need be apprehended.

The Coal field known as the fast Coal basin, is opened at the 'eastern end
by the Lehigh; neat the middle by the Schuylkill; further west by the Swatars,
and at the western end it is reached by some of the tributaries of the Susque
hanna.
The second or Mahonoy Coal basin, is opened at the western end, by the Sha
mokin, near the middle by the Pottsville and Danville rail road, and atthe eas•
tern end by the Beaver, Meadow rail rood in the Lehigh.
The third or Wilkesbarre Coal basin is opened on the earthy the Laclunnut
us Coal company. Fet,tm hear Wilkesbane there is a rail road beingeondructed
to the Lehigh, and on ihe west the %squaw= affords an outlet.
These three basimrcompriae a surface of from 8 to 900 square miles, from
which there has not been mined more than 5 or 6,000,000 Of tams up to the
present time—awl even at the rate of 20,000,000 of tons annually, (the =mutt
now consumed in England) these Coal fields will supply generatiens of men
so far removed from us that the most dreamy philosophers and philanthrophists
do not pretend to any foresight of what may be their condition, much lees to
arrange for their necessities.
From our knowledge of the mines now in operation, end what they have
produced, and of the many others that are being prepared for active operation,
we/t feel quite satisfied that for the present times the supply thrown into market
will be fully equal to the consumption.
If their should be any doubt of the cuff ciekcy of ways for transporting Coal
to market, we need but revert to the many Canals that intersect the country,
and to the rail roads already made kind making.
In about two years there will be a rail road from this place to Philadelphia,
on which Coal can be transported at nearly all limes, which will result in keep
ing a regular supply in market, and in preventing the great fluctuations in price
that have been witnessed heretofore.
The Schuylkill Canal is capable of tmnsmitting a much *gee amount than
has ever yet been .carried on it, and when we add to this the calamity of the rail
road, the amount of tonnage that can be transported from this region, will far
surpass what can rost4bly be required for a great number of years.
The canal wee closed by ice on the 515th of November, king four days earlier
than it was ever closed before.
We would respectfully ask the members of this Assachrtionivr other perecum,
to communicate to the Board of Trade any information they now have or may
become possessed of, dud is interesting to those who are engaged in this business.
Respectfully submitted,
