The company have recently erected / a large

It is built of etune in the form of a semi s circle,

is a turning platform from which 21 treks of
heavy T rail 'diverge, each leading to a/separate

TAM IRON TRADE OF PATTSOURG.—A late num- .
ber of the. Pittsburg Gazette publishes the" names
of fifty one furnaces for smelting non, located'on
the Allegheny river, and states that the list is no t
quite complete. 'lbis list contains. none of •the
furnaces on the canal, and only.,those Which .run .
their metal to market on the The.. Gazette,
also contains the following ; particulars, relative to
.the iron trade of Pittsburg which wi think will
•
-not fail to interest our readers.
There are now twelve-Rolling Mills, eleven in
riperation, and the Mlle?
~market for 'metal.—
These work up 75 to 100 tons per . week, say 75
all around, or 900, tons per week, Then there
ere the host of Foundries, one of which has melt:
ed 25 tons per day, and will average probably 100
- tons per week.. :should the Mills run full time
till spring, the supply is a tolerable one and no
more; and were the new Tariff not directlybrouglit
in as a 'on 'the market, it would speedily
•lie cleared of alfthe iron on it.
The amount of Iron in the shape - of Pig Met
al and Bloom's annually mirketed in Pittsburg is
about forty thousand loos of.which here
manufactured and distributtd'orer half the-linion,
in iron fabrics or every , descrAptiun.
Probably no market out of Europe is caDable

VIoiNTEUXT, (Mexico) Oct. 4th, 1846.
,Dta :-1 send,you these lines to _let yea
know that. I am at present at Monterey and in
good health and spiritd. On the third day of the
battle, I .met with I,teut. Nicholls., ..It wa s his
position at that lime, to protect us' from the Mexi
can Cavalry rind-Infantry who appeared determi.
ned .by a-_desperate' i charge, to take our battery
from us. We were then making our way into
the eity e despite three of their forts, which were
showering, upon. us ,grape, canister and round
shot. as fast -as hail.
The first- day's butte, commenced to that, best
'of my belief,.at about. 7 o'clock, A. M., between
the Mexican Cavalry and some of our brave
tro - ;ps. !lean assure you that: the. troops,Onder
command of 'Lieutenant „Nichola fought bravely,
its did he himself. At 10 o'clock, A. M., the. In
lantry Were.ordered_ocharge the forts, and at the
same time, we, [the Artillerists] were instructed'
to gallop forward, as fast as our horses could go.
We passed a breast ,work on OUT right, within 5
yards of us, which waisJined with Mexican Infan
try, and five yards in .the rear of ..them, were few
forts giving us large quantities of grape and can
ister. I neglected to say that the 'lane through
which we were obliged to ,pass, in entering the
city. was aboht eight bun lred yards long, and its
vi;dth-tlid not exceed ten feet, In'our. passage
thrOugh this narrow lane three of our , men were
killed, and twelve wounded. Ten horses were
shot from under-their
,riders. You will imagine.
how
,painful was to ,see our brave men lying
dead ,around us, and 'to,.hear the- groans of the
wounded, und , their-cries for water, which we
could not furnish to them, as our men were fai
ling from our piece every moment, and one was
obliged to .perform the duties of three. At, the
piece where,' was engaged, our Sergeant and 2
privates were.sbut down from our side.
.1 am obliged to dose tnitletter, or I will lose
the opportunity or sending it,,,to you. I will write
again in a feW days, and give you full particulars
of the battle. .

The 'luSenora Coal Estate is situnteil•.com
mantling the sui r ninit land betWern the head iwas•
tere of the, Wabash; a branch of the Schuylkill;
which runs thence 'through::Schuylkill Calley , to
Port•CarhOL Besides the ravines of these streams
whiclirumm tarellel direction to the range Of, the
coal veins; other streams rise on the sides cf'the
north and south moontainsi, running within the
boundary 'of Ohs EFtatc, and in their: - course - to
the main brash cross the stratification at a right
angle to its range, thereby 'as it were making a
natural often tint, affording opportunities In the
Miners to oper the coal and Inirsue the' vein into
the .adjoining tills, gi‘ing considerable workings
above water level.
The at:cling:cal position of the Tuscarora Coal
Estate, is the centre of -the coal valley. The
veins of coal are many of them of great thickness,
superior quality, and in °Severable position, for mi
ning to. great advantage: The southern part of
the Estate has the red - ugh, the middle and north
ern the gray and -wit to ash coal. The veins of
coal now in .I.6rg. on li"; ; l'usctirora .property, on
the 4ofillt side of the Estate, have a dip towards
the riorth, and those n the north . side, have a
south, dip, thus formin a begin ranging east and
west,' underdeath the ‘ Central part of this estate.
When I was upon the Tuscarora Estate, the veins
ofi coal now lin work, had: only been
,partially
opened or shafted upon in their outcrop, therefore,
I was unable
,at that time, to obtain correct sec
tions of, their thickness, to give the proportions of
marketable coal; bone coal and slate. I havraince
my tirst visit to the property for that purpose, ob
tained further infortnatiOn respecting.these veius,
and I hope to get for my nex.l.commumrations full
particulars. . I
. In nay desiription of-the South Anthracite Re
gion,.!' am .approaching a, most interesting part of
the coal formation, and 'I hope, ftdra recent and,
careful examinations,- to be enabled: to give a tol
erably accurate idea of the character, course, and
dip of the coal,—and , to show the alteratiohe that
take place in the same series Of coal veins (as,to.
position) in crossing .the basin 'from southr.to
I
north.
In pursuing my examinations ofthis :part of
the coal field, _1 Itave,iPeen delighted' 10-fitidthe
stiatsinuch mere regular and.uniform than I had
been preciously leil,to believe .was the case, not
only from: ..the_ representations of persons With
whom I had conversed upon this subject, but like.
wi se from the perusal of the Reports of the State
seolo g iit, and other papers published, descriptive
of this coal formation. Indeed, in Some places
where the utmost confusion has been said to ex
thipk I shall hereafter be enabled to show
clearly and Satisfactorily, that there is the most
regularity. • I take the opportunity to express my"
views. here, because I wish those who feel inter
ested in the subject so Le cafeful to pieseivecoPies
of these
,comniunicatinhs, for I' may have occasion
in future descriptions to refer back.to a_particular
formation, before described, Tor the better illustra
tion of my theory„ and for substantiating facts
.that might trot otherwise be clearly understood.
. I have collected sumo information of the early
history of the lands - now known as the "Tusca
rora, Coal Estate," which map not be uninteres-.
tin' nor out of place if briefly enumerated. • The .
Estate has several times:changed hands previous
to the present !owners becoming possessed thereof.
The. first sale vies made in I In% by the syarren.
tee George Reber to Andiinried .& Horning, and
by them to Rhodes Pattetson; .It was. after
wards purchased by Joseph Lyons for .6;685;
being at the rate of 45 dollars per acre. Before
Mr. Lyons' purchase,. little Or no improVements
had been made thereon. The coal was but, little
develoPed—there was no rail read nor bnildingt
of any note. After the purchase by this gentle
man, and while in his 'possession, the Schuylkill
Valley Rail Road was made from the held of the
Schuylkill Navigation at Port Careen to Tusca
rora—and be laid out Town Lots, built an Hotel
and other buildings—ho also opened and worked
Come Of the 'coal veins, and constructed • branch
rail roads to the mines. The constructing of the
Schuylkill Valley Railroad was one of the great
undertakind of -the age--:it was' very circuitous
in its 'route as compared with die: present road
now lately completed and .laid with heavy T rafts
of the same gauge as the 'Reading and Philadel
[ phia r d , over which the "Iron Horse is sent up
to the mouth of the mines to convoy their produc
tions Rom thence to the borders of the Atlantic
In the large plan I have under preparation is
shown the old and the new line of railway, with .
their various branches to the different mines in
the Valley of the Schuylkill. In the pamphlet
statement of the affairs and prospects of' the
.New
York and Tuscarora Coat company, published in
1832, Is the following table as an appendix;

- After the purchase by the New York and Tus
carora Coal company from Joseph Lyon, for 108,-
050 dollarspnearly'2oo doll'ars per acre, this corn
pony undertook the opening of the mines but
were not very andceasful: Their agent obtained
a contract or lease' from the Company, engaging
to send 00,00,0 tons of coal per annum to Phila- .
delphistrom the mines at.l'uscarora—but at what,
price, does not appear—and it is further slated in
the pimphlet above alluded to, 'that "it is the in
tention of the contractor io .ink a perpendirular
shaft the depth' of from lefty to seventy fathoms
(300 to 420 feet) so as tomake thorough trial of
the mineral in the property and to find and bring
to market the beit quality of coal"—but ',suppose
the embarrassed 'condition of the company and
the incapability' of the agent or contractor, preven
ted these grand ideas being arried into effect, for
notwithstbroling the statenient of the compmy, at
the,close of - their pamphlet; that "under goOoand
careful management the undertaking must do well.
Yew public companies have ever started with such
prospects; Success snot here a
,matter of irnag
inition, -but one of certainty; resting only on one
po'sition,.the ability of.contrrictor to bring the coal
to market." To be brief, the New York and
Tuscarora Coal Company, in lesatha6:two years,
were broken up—and tho minors and those em
- played on the'Work had to sell at Constable sale,
tho Cars loaded with coal; the.tools and other per
sonal effects of the company, for wages. 111 r Jo
seph' Lyon, who bad taken the bonds and the
stock of 'the company as payment :fertile - purchase'
money; lost nearly the whole gum. The property
was afterwards sold . at Sheriff's sale, for Liens,
' Mortgages, &c. and was purchased by the ',resent
owners. . .
