' In coriiequence of the long continued-hien of

surPlus . of coal remaining un • hand atthe . com
mencement of he Spring - trade. • linking - from
observation 170 experience we see many im

conducting the business, which if entered into
generally, would he followed by the moat bene
ficial effects ;. and as the operators hold in their
own hands the. remedy for all the evils under
which the tialleloclast year groaned, we hope that
they will exeivisc it and make every - effort topre
vent a recurrence of these difficulties. The prices
can be sustaitietl at healthy and remunerating rates
if the colliers rll remain at home, and, fur once,
'dispense with that usual haste and anxiety to sell,
which half's - IV:rays been the cause of retarding the
trade heretofiirti A pith from the loss incurred by
this frequent t4vell!ng to and fro, (which in some
instances svvalfows up the profit °rink . ° cantonal) .
is never follciwed by any g md, but_ is invariably
productive of iinjurious consequences to the busi
ness. Instead l ef waiting until thedimand is made
from abroad, each one hurries on to force his coal
first into market, and the eliect has always been
to check the demand and depreciate the price of
the staple at the very outstart.
Another evil in the trade, and one which needi
a remedy, is the great e x tent to which the pur
chaser is get ally credited. Every operator in
this region s ould endeavor. as near as it lay.
'within his polter, to reform`his business upon she
cash principle .l Ile has every reason and induce
inent to jostifi him in such a comae. Coal ought
to be a' !cash . e.rticle. The operator is forced to
pay cash in all the various branches of ImOiess
here, and it[isi unfair to ask hire to all his'Coal
at a credit A lh6eby•actually furnishing the pur
chaser abdoad with the eipital requisite to carry
on his biisiness., I .The lircied banking facilities
which we envoy will not warrant our dealers in
the continuancti4)l the syStem, and the superior
advantages inissessed elseviihere ought to prevent
the purchaseri from asking such favor. If he be
of good standing he can avail himself of the faci!-

My. Xenon I We -
base derived great pleas
ure in reading the l , snide on Fannie,* in' your .pa
per, and cannot help expressing our satisfae,tion,
that the press has taken this matter in band:
voting its 'Herald , voice' to the noble purpose of
promulgating" useful knowledge, and the intelli
gence of common interests, mein elevate a paper
in the estimation of the good and intelligent. A.
the introduction of cast iron rails cannot fail to ex;
err, a beneficial influence on the wealth of our
state, by bringing its vast Mineral resources into
plafi . and therefore ought to concern thousands of
Pennsylvanians, we think it a commendable step
thattlie author of your article signed 'an amateur
has addressed himself to the public through your
valuable paper, instead of making the whole dis
quisition a strictly scieotiGic matter to be carried
on in the closet. Many men ,Of practical experi
ence and intimate acquaintance with the nature of
cast iron, will thus be enabled to give their opin
ion end contribute their share•of valuable informa
tion. I remember the time, when cast iron nuts.
as used by Mr. William Norris in,hislocomotive
Engines, were deemed unsafe, and when the Eng
lish rnechantes.and their AmeriOan followers rais
ed the cry twinst this prat tice, maintaining that
the lives of railroad travellers were thereby endan
gered. Experiments made in the very presence
of English Engineers, proved to their astonishment
the-fate tthat cast iron' nuts, wore not waker than
wrought iron-pnes, but so strong, that in forcing
a serewbolt throbgh them, the thread of the screw
was torn off, whilst the spiral windings of the nut
remained uninjured. The English builders of
Engines made great of spinet the profuse
employment of cast iron in our locomotives, and
up to this day, English orders for American En-
gines, enjoin the sparing use of this metal. Are
we therefore to infer that our builders use it tun
profusely, or that it ought not to he employed at
.111 No, our people know better, and we hope
will know baler Mao with regard to cast iron rit.l4
As an anecdotei giveyou, that when Mr. Wil
liam Norris spoke about cast iron wheels for Loco-.
motive Engines .to Mr. litincure. RabinsprOite
distinguihed Engineer of the Pottsville and Platl
ailvlphia railroad, one of the best located in the
world; this gentleman exclaimed, 'what! cast
iron wheels! I will sooner put the engine updn
glass wheels.' Yet we have cast iron truck wheels;
what is still more wonderful, we have cast iron
driving wheels l Of cogrde this little story can but
be an ;anecdote.
We are perfectly aware that English rolled iron
raPs evrn of a belie kind than have been common
ly imported into the United States, may 'be had
now at $4O per ton, shipment included. (Those
coating $27 per ton at the iron works in Wales
are of too inferior a kind, to deserve being men
tioned here.) Paying the dot es imposed by our
tariff, amounting to $25 per ton front the 3d of
MarchlB43, these latter ones can be
_obtained by
our seaboard railroada at aboutss2 per'ton. But
with the interi ir, with the far west standing actu
ally in want of railroad iron, it is quite il.f erent.
and there the price will vary from $7O to $9O per
ton. The measure of admitting foreign rails ditty
free ever since 183.1, necessary and advantageous
as it was when our iron works were still in their
infancy, has to the great content of 'English iron.
inasters ruined in latter year. our iron wilt*, as
many of the English rails, old or new, were void
Jar the purpose oaf being converted info bar iron,
the duly upon whirl: constwilly amorist/id to 30'
per'cent. Most of our rallwaysibeing'finished vt
present, it was high time to put a stop to this vac
like of legal smuggling. '
We all know that rails worth $35 per toll in
England, and casting us here, Thut merely on the
seaboard) $5O per ton, will fetch fromsl2 to $2B
per ton, or $2O on on average, when sold 'as old'
iron after their thorough use on railroads. Many
and most of these, however, are worth nothing,_
and find no buyers in the market at say price, the'
iron being of such a bail quality. Nevertheless
ea will stick- to the high medium price of $2,0 per
ton. It is another fact that these rails, when they
ere to be converted into new ones, they must be
repuddled in most cases, and thee moiled. The
expenses of this - process are about $l4 to $lB per
:on, when puddling required, and from $lO t i
$l5 when the simple-process of retelling them suf
fices, including alms of -12 to 45 per cent, or a
bout $2,00 to $3,00 per ton. '
The redder we think will be also aware that
e
it i i .
the price of pig i t '
is'fron $24 to $32, averaging
therefore $2B p ; that li tons of pig are re
quired to make lon of rolled iron--the value of
the material contained in 1 ton, therefore amount.
ing.to $28X28-2, $42, and that the expenses of
the whole process of convening the raw material
into rolled iron mill, amounts to from $l4 to $lB
Per ton, thee making 42X16—558, the real price
per ton of rails manufactured in this country. For
the cost of retelling rails after their thorough use
we will-put down $l3 per ion int a medium price
including the loss end create of material, and will
also hold to the low price of $5O per ton, for home
manufactured rails.
Another fact the public is certainly conversant
with, is that in order to convert pig iron into cast
hags, If tons are required; the value of metal
therefore 'contained in I ton of cost 'iron will
amount to $28X28-4—535, and the expenses at
tending it $7, which raises the cost of 1 ton of
cast iron to $35X7—542 per ton.
Finally it ts'a well known - fact,'that the piiceol
cold east iron of the quality fetching $42 per top,
is Bloat $3O, and that expense's of regaining
it. Including the loss of material, will amount to
•
$8 per ton.
Let us suppose now for thenke of establish
ing a comparison, two railroads of equattength of,
the 6.1010 gradients, with rails Isid open a contin.'
uous bearing,worked by the dame kind of Engines
that perform the same number of tripe, end do the
sane amount of business.
The railroad 'F, is to have &rolled rail of SD lbs.
to the yard.
The railroad G, on the contrary a east iron rail
of 70 lbs., giving a surplus "strength of 5 lbs. per
yard over its riiquisite weight of 65 lbs.,`(as pre-'
witted by Tredgold, the eelebrated writer on the
strength of materials) for the purpose of making'
our esit- iron rill equally stiff egainsCdeflections,
as the wrought iron rail of the'afoiessid weight.
'Lit us isuppose furthermore, that both railroads;
after the lapse of 20 years, will require new rails;
although from what we have seen with our own
eyes hen,' itrEngiand and Belgium ( where the
rails arerolled 7 - times) we are inelineti to think,
that wrought iron railtkof the given weight will
not average in their duration more than-15 years.
