Along the line of the Volley Rail Road from Pottsville to Port Carbon, the past year has pro- duced a <most ar:ionishing, change. Large num: 4.bers of new houSes have bein erected at short drstanctafrom each other, and in the.vicinity of the new Engine house and Machine shop, erected by the Rail Road Company, a town of considera ble size, callO,Warderville, has sprung up as if by magic. A :large Hotel called the Palo Alto House: built by the company was opened in the spring, and aireaily the.new town contains' a pop ulation of some,two•or three hundred. -^ . In , Port Carbon the present season has been a most active one. Entering the townlrorii any pOint, improvements Meet the eye at almolt every turn. The new beanies erected during the spring crceed by far in lumbers those built during any season for many years.

In the vicinity of nearly all the' , Coal operations, and scattered along the road in close proximity to each other, many new Miners' Hbusea have been built duritig the season. 'At the' mines of Mr. E. W.

Other improvements have been made, in the title) , above Middleport, but the greatest changes doting the yearnas been between Pottsville and that point. .As new Cast Mines are opened, houses must be built for the accommodation of the Miners, and hence the Valley of the Schuylkill will continue to increase in population and improve in appear. once. few years of prosperity will make the whole,ofthat Valley appear like a ccintinuons vil tage,.untesa the . ,etrects of -ibe .Terlff of 1846, ready telt. stioidd prostrt4e bn.aness, And check the progresscif imporgutat. .
