The operation eostts about 3d. per ton, and this coal hereby loses about,ten percent. of its weight: it will then stand the blast without flying to pieces, and it will melt ten times its weight (before calcina tion) of iron, i. c.-20Ibs, of coal wid melt 2001bs. of iron; and it is believed by ,those who have had the most experience, that the cost of this fuel is Foy wed by the improved quality or the iron. The cal cination of the less dense kinds of anthracite,, and of 4ose which exhibit a cubical fracture, may be effect ed by the bent remaining ion cupola after a few days work. Fur instance, when the furnace is clean ed out, and cooled to a ri:d heat, it may be filled one third full of raw anthracite, which will ,thereby be calcined sufficiently fur the changes of Iron next day. But the most approved method of using stcae coal for re-melting is to apply the hot blast, vhichit must be observed, has contrary .effeet upon iron when worked with coke ; for tt,is a fact, that the heated blast, in conjunction with anthracite, increases the toughness and malleability orthe metal. The most economical Mode hitbert) salopted of .heating the blast in culkil is, is 14 cause :the pipes belonging ti earth twyere to pass twice over the flame; and it is important to have the twyeres made wider than they • usually are, in older to admit as great a volume of Air as 'possible. With this 'arrangement 20Ibs. of coal msy•be made to melt a••out 2 curt. of iron.— Some experiments are now beitig made to ascertain the best construction of. fin ,place for the use of an •thracite in locomotive engipes, the result of which experiments may be looked forward to with confi dence ; for it will be recollected that when this, coal was tried on the Liverpool And Manchester Railway, 5i cwt. of it was sufficient to do the work of 71 cwt. of coke. From this test, hurried as it was. 1.;;c strength of anthracite, as compared. r el. .appears in about the sanie proportion se frual all ether trials. It la now generally us•Al in I 'cont."- Lived on many of the railroad. in the United States. For burning lime, the cuim or stnaH of anthracite ties been used for year:; and about 10 cwt of it is equal to 30 cwt. of biturttious coal; and since the forme': emits no smoke, it ought for that teason to be used in all thickly-populated distncts where lime burning is indispensable. For the same rea s on, those lofty and expensive chimneys, which are re quired for carrying up.to p..sufficient height the ve ry dense smoke of conimon coal, are altogether un necessary where anthracite coal is used. The great heating power of this fuel is daily proved in Dr. Ar- noit's :dare, and ilfessra.

For steam boat's ,engines anthracite will, eventually. be found not merely an available, but a most . valuable furl. It ic ,, in fact, already used in boats on the Delawiare River, where, by means of it alone, a speed of twelve or thirteen miles an hour is commonly obtained. In conclusion, it may be con fidently 'stated, that 'anthracite can be most advanta- - geously erhployt•d for all purposes'wbere coke and charcoal have heretofore beep preferred to ruse coal ; for being by nature free from those volatile matters which Lituminous coal• is freed from by operation of coking, its sole combustible ingredient is carbon, and, consequently, it burns without smoke Vaneliy Radrood and Docks Campany.—Use of Anthracite Co ,d for Steam Purposes.—The works in this company proceedsatisfactorily in every respect, and will be completed by the _first of May nest. The very unfavorable - weather during the past yam, has occasioned an unavoidable delay of four or five months in finishing the permanent way. The estimates of produce to he brought down the line, are becoming fully realised ; and we learn with much satisfactiOn, that the great desideratum of rendering anthracite coal usable for .team natiga4on purposes has been attained. This highly important circum stance (by which the Llanetly Railway, as a transit for that tool wilt be most materially be9efitted),. will be productive of a great advantage to steam n iviga tion, as one ton of anthracite coal is equal in its pow er of generating steam, to three tons oflrituminious coal, by which tonnage and stowage-room in vessels will be mhterially raved, As well as all the nuisance of smoke - , and the possibility of spontaneous cornbus- Nitgakine.. The Woodman and thi Baron) A LEGEND OF THE ,HARTZ. What ve these Chat look not like the inhabitants o' the earth, And yet are on it l _ hiscarra. As the chivalrous Hannah Hernandorff was one day riding in the Hartz Forest, a tremendous crash in the thickets caused his horse to swerve from its course, and make way for • boar which, bleeding from wounds and foaming with rage, rushed forth, followed at full speed by s weaponless rider., The boar, weak from lima of blood, suddenly halioed in the thick brushwood which concealed a frour view, end the horse, unconscious of its proximitito tb • enraged brute, arms in contact with him, fell. and threw thi,rider with considerable violence.

Let rivalry cease, and over a magnum of the best in Pcihemia let us drink oblivion to , the .fend ! . • “ Be it so, then ; thon hut a right to impose terms,-” said the Baron, reluotanly % extending his hand towards Hernandrott. The foes front birth then proceeded to the castle. .fiernandroff wail overjoyed beyond measure at what he deemed the fortunate - circumstance which was to unite in,, terms of friendship two families that had .hitherto lived in open rivalry and hostility almost vvithin bowshot of each Other.' The Baron felt dif ferently:: the idea of being under an obligation to the Hernandioff stung him ; but hedisguised all ad verse feeling, and seemed to warm as the wine cir culated, They drank deeply ; and at length the Baron proposed A full cup to the lady of Lindenhansen !" The toast was in honor of the intended brit]; of Hirnaudroff; but before the chalice was at the ear on's lips, his eyes rested on an antique suit of richly ornamented chain mail, and a sword and shield which, with other warlike trophies, bung suspended. from the roof; the sight of them kindled anew the ancestral strife m his bosom ; and in one of those paroxysms of rage to which he was so liable, and which were but the outbreaks of the deliberate mal ice of his cooler moments, he exclaimed— .. Is it thus that thou treatest a guest I Thou ask est a soldier . to thy banquet-board, and insultest him by displaying the dishonored arms of his predeces sors " . They are not dishonored," said Elernandroff. A royal hand conferred them on their ancestah and although by the fortune of war he lost them, it must ever be remembered that it was ,to signalisp hti prowess that the royal gift was given. They are memerials of an honourable contest when thine and my ancestors belonged to different countries— served different monarchs—spoke different languages and acknowledged different faiths !" Prove thy, proffered friendship by delivering up thy sword and shield—they hang there but to insulin a rii al " They were my father's, and my father's father's ! They have hbng there for centuries !

" liefniuthroff, good. fi r " stf!.ing which, the fiaruirabraititly twat his departure. While this scene was enacting within the castle, a very difforent one was ena'eteil without. But tit.- fore proceeding with our narative, it is necessary to give some aecount of Hans Bachoffner, be wood- man, twashost care the horses were committed. He was about fifty4fite yeas Of, age, a stout-built, raw brtrad-shouldered person, with a short neck, an unusually large head, an uncouth weather-beaten countenance, a flat nose, immense cheek-bones, elf locks, and dark eyes with a decided , squint. A broad belt, within which a hatchet and a pipe were generally thrust, was bucketed round his waist. Another belt, slung over his right shoulder, suppor ted a basket or pannier in which the pro%ision of the day for himself and dog were deposited; together with a plentiful store of tobacco, without which the life of a Bohemian would be a state of- purgatory. A pair of huge boots, reaching far above his knees, served to protect Mtn from the briers. We must not forget his dog Rudolph, who was of a most forbid ding apperance—his only companion, and sharer of his hut. was a fine large animal, nearly as shag gy. as the inane of a lion ; his grey muzzle indicated advanced age—and the loss of an eye—the remain ing.one being what is termed'a wall-eye—gave him an' obliquity of look in unison with the askance glance , „of his master. The woodman, es he had been directed, with the assistance of the groonas,. *wash;cl and dressed the wounds of the suffering horses, which fletained him at the Castle several hours. It was near midnight, and the snow bad been falling fast, when, with his dog, he sallied kgth, and imprudently ventured homewards. The.samw had obliterated the forest foot-paths. It was dark, and he had neither guide nor compass. The wolves hOwled, the winds roar ed,"the snows rushed river hiin hire the simoom of the desert, threatening every moinent to overwhelm him. Re feared to advance lest the next step should plunge him into a pitfall. It was equal perilous to retreat; doubly so to remain where he was, since inaction would have lulled him into that deep sleep, which during intense celd is frequently the precur sor of a deeper one. - Whilst in uncertaintrwhst to do, he heard e. sound of vela% as of peasants Canning at harvest home.
