With regard to the prospects of the trade
for the present year, we have but few remarks
to make at present. It is evident trout the
iniprotoemetas rivalling, that al' the Coal
that the market will require in 186 can be
famished, Schuylkill, County cat easily in -
crease the production this year 300,060 tons,
or ems more should the marketrequire it;
and 'the rates of transportation are not fixed
at too high a figure. Under any eiccrunstanees
the enterprise of our Individual Operators is
sufficient to cope with any other Region.—
The Lehigh Region it' also prepared to fur
nish ageonsidenible increase thiti year, with
the Lehigh Valley Railroad opened—also the
Scranton Region with the new. Branch of
their Road completed lea:ding to New York.'
The Wyoming Region will also have a new
:outlet with the completion of the North'
- •
Branch Canal, and the improvement .of the
White Raven Railroad lending froth Wilkes
hare to the Lehlih. The Shamokin Region
has '.lso another outlet via. the Sunbury and
Erie Railroad leading to Williamsport and
from thence into the interior of New York—
all these improvements,,however, tend to sup
ply the interior of this State and New York,
except the Scranton Railroad running East, and
the Lehigh Volley Railroads, which open these
regions in direct communication with New
York Bay at all seasons of the year.
~In the older Regions the Operators do nut
intend pushing business—hut on the contrary
are making only such improvements as are
• necessary to keep their establishments in good
working order, prepared to supply any de
wed the market may require.
,Experience
is teaching many that it is preferable to do a
imaller business at fair remunerating prices,
than a large-pushing business without profit,
and in some instances at a loss.
Should provisions continue to fall in price,
(as they are now doing,) the manufacturing
iuterests of the country prosper, and - the car
tying companies not charge too high rates.
we th"ok the market will-require all the Coal
that can be furnished this year 'from all the
regions, notwithstanding, the new outlets that
will he ready in the spring.
We are compelled to postpone any further
remarks at present as the paper is full.

The inewatte of Setni-Authmcite, and Bi
turstoous Coal in 1854, including Foreig%
over , the previous years, was 218,167 tons.—
This year there is a decrease of 1,731 tow
making the , total increase of all kinds, in
1855, 684,004 tons, against 952,857 tons, in
1854. As the-prices-ruled high in 1854, and
were much loWer in 1855, there will, in all
probability, be a clear market in the Spring.
Of the increased supply of . Anthracite,
Schuylkill county furnished 438,366 tons,
leaving 248,369 tons for the increase of all
the other Anthracite regions.
Of the 6,517,569 tonsof Anthracite, Schuyl
kill county, as uhual, has furnished more than
half, as the folowing figures will show;

by their limited means of transportation, yet
that Region will furnish it considerable in

crease this year. ,
. i
The" Ashland or Mahanoy Basin, in the
Middle Coal Field, will, probably, nearly deli.
ble their shipments this season over last. The
COM of that Region being of a splendid chai
acter, it is much in demand ; but the:quench'' ,
sent to market will depend entirely on the
"thing of . the Planes. This increase . will
cOunt from the Schuylkill Region, the outlet
being by the Mine Hill Co's. road.
i The Little Schuylkill Co. will also increa s e
their shipments over last year.
'-' The Mammoth Collieries of Schuylkill CO.,
that is, those on the :Mammoth and other
large veins, can always supply the waits of
the trade at short notices, being always pre-
Oared, with their inexhaustible supplies to suit
May demand at almost any price,- and there

Other Regions. . .

\ Mr. Guo. H. Pons has sunk . a
Slope On

Tile, or rather theßecond Basin, since last
Year, and is now 1241 feet deep, which is the
greatest depth of Shipe in the Coal Region ;
yet the ventilation is perfect, being conducted
itt,the most practical and scientific manner,
and the Coal, we understand. is still incas
re...,-,,
mg- in' purity and density, as it prose ee"s

Mine Coal is justly celebrated, and for a loUg
time has enjoyed an enviable reputation in
the market. , ~.

,..
ihased of Geo. Miller & Co., by Messrs. Anta
l() & Lippincott, will be put under repairs du
ffing the Winter, and probably a Slcipe
Ariven up, to the surface, if the saddle which
'is supposed to intervene does not prevent it.
'This Shaft presents the novelty (in the Coal
Region) of containing a Slope and steam en
gine at its bottom, which helps materially, to
;keep a strong current of atmospheric air ion
stantly in motion. The ventilation con:se
fluently, being well provided for in other !re
spects isgood. .
