nothing that our e tisens should feel greater pride

laeleas. A beset try
tree is certainly much , cool

Those who base Cot. their propertY thus adorned,

of the same, with that 01 the'breast and pillar which
we described before we began with hoed and pillar, and I
must confine our detailed remarks to one district which

Beginning first with the breast and pillar workings,
which were only inipertectly, ventilated in the days this

After the air had descended the shaft, it was carried
along the principal drift to the first net bff drift which
is open to the working parts of the mice. An air door
liras then placed in the principal deftt in advance of the
junction of the two drifts which forced the air Into the
comment:sting 'drift in one undivided body. Thts
lowed its new course directly to the working breasts by
passing through tho last communicating cressheading
which is generally Ina line with the headways. which
carry the air close past the months of all the breasts in
the range, which often constituted the whole of the
workings of the mine, or the whole of them which were
in operation at one and the sine 'time. It. wax then
conducted into the goaves or old excavated bread*,
which it .was intended to ventilate but which it
could not be expected to do, eiceipt In a very im
perfect manner on account of the roads being partially
or totally closed up by tails of root or by the upheaving
of the-door into the breasts and beadasys The air
was prevented from entering directly into the old finish
ed breasts by temporary air stopping' built' of thin
planks or of stone in the end of the breasts which com
municated with the headway nearest the face of the
breasts. It vestry those air droppings that the air was
forced to pass siongibe headway" to the extremity' of
the workings or working breasta, and at this point ,•
communicathon was heft open to the old workings, or
gravel. The air was then' conducted through the pas
sages found open In the old works to the return air
drift, by which it round its way to the ascending air
ones by widest ft seeped from the nine. /
By the Iteta of the pillar which we have seen
bled the letter 11, we may learn that the wings 4 1 =
end of the pillars are intended to support the roof over
the headways in order to preserve open, to thrm a free
airconrsi throughout the whole area of worked parts of
the mine. The whole of the headways are communt,
tatted at their extremities by an open breast, or by a
narrow passage driven parallel to the breast. The com
munications of all the other breasts, between the breasts
or narrow passages which communleated the headways
together at their extremities, were shut off by air stop.
plop, so that'when the air entered from one headway
to another, it was forced to traverse the whole length of
the headway bete* it could be conducted to another '
headway, the length of a pillar in advance, to which it I
bound its way by the open communicating passage. It
was thus conveyed alternately from headway to head
way until it had passed through every headway In the
mine. at least it was designed to piss through every
headway In the mine if they could with any reasonable
amount of labor be` kept open for a free passage. By
this means their& was coursed backwards and forwent"
through a considerable amount of visaged', which when
added together, showed that .the air was sometimes
coursed through a total length of subterranean mrdisge,
between twenty and thirty mud, which caused a vast
amount of friction to the moving current of air. It
was also a sous of much labor and expense to keep
those roads open,' and quite a number of hands was
daily' employ ed to remove the falls which took plate
at some points of the paseages. When the floor of
the Mine was subject to the creep, it was impossible to
prevent the roads from becoming closed up by the rap
heaving of the floor. When the creep was prevalent in
this system of working and ventilating. it wore with dit.
Beatty that one direct road could be kept open fie a free.
ale course; the rest of the old workings were then left,
to their destruction. which however,would be a cotield,
stable time before they would ho c ompletely closed up.
As long as they remained partially rpen, those open
parts would become charged with, an Aphides pm,
which would it various times be forced in nart into the
air roaditof the mine, thereby endangering explosion".
This mode of working and - veutliating was carried on in
the Newcaittle Coal Yield, until the beginning of the
present century, when'tdr. Puddle. a celebrated Colliery
Viewer, introduced his system of b nal and pillar, work
ed in panels or districts into a number of Collieries in
the district of which he was manager. He ventilated
each 'district with re separate current of air, sod in
creased the amount in circulation, and was the author
of several important improvements, which leave his
same to be remembered as having dohs Mons In bring •
-
ing the Coal mining operations in that Coal Field to
their present perfection. than all the Mining Engineers
and Government Inspectors before or since his day. It
would have been impossible to work the deepest and
most fiery Goal seams in the Newcastle district without
Mr. Buddle'a improvements or someotherimprovements
In working and ventilation, which are an equivalent to
Mr:Buddies. aysterm. The ventilation or this system,
which la the tend and pillar worked in panels and die
tricts, the working of which we have already described,
cornea next under our notice.
From the bottom of the shaft the sir takes its course
alone the middle exploring diift, and follows this course
in an undivided body until It readmit the mouth of the
winning drift+ which lead to the firsliopened districts
in the mine.; The principal winning drift then receives
a division of the whole current of sir, and this Menthes
is 'aided forward to the workings of the district . -
When we described the mode of opening the whet to be
worked by bord and pillar, it was shOwn.tbat the ex
ploring drifts were driven three in range. only separated
from each other by thin pillars of standing Coal vend
that the winning drifts were eithee driven three to
gether, and separated, similarly, by pillars of Coal—the
so:addle drifts In both came being the main sir and wa
gon roads, by which the sir is s ubdoeted to the work
ings. arid the worked Cod entivgied from the workings ;
to the shaft. Here we see that the winning drifts alter
they leave the centre exploring drifts, must cut tad
hi
teraett one of the side exploring drifts. It is here ne
commie, to know that the side drift" are dzed for es
espetir ways, and they counanalcate dire ctl y with the
Mr shaft. Then, as we observed, , the principal or mid
dle winning drift always cuts and intersects one of the
aide exploring drifts, then to prevent the sir from es
caping directly to the air shaft, the communication with
side drift mast be cut oft, and both drifts having the
same roof and floor, the usual air stopping, built from
the floor to th e roo f would shut off the communication
with the air shaft, and the workings of the district" in
• advance of this point. To preserve a free eoursebetwaen
the two sections of the side exploring drifts, which is
thus divided by the winning drifts; a vacuity I. cut
Over the winning drift, of an equal ere", anCin a line
with the side exploring drift; then, to abut off the to
tercurrents between those two interseetinedrifts, an
arch is built over the principal winning drift directly
under the vacuity which is cut In the roof, the arch, as
it were, *muting a part °Ube winning drift& while the
two sections of the side exploring drift air left ham and
joined to each other over the back of the arch, which
leaves the course of the alr treenail the districts In ed.
van.* of those points, free and uninten7pted. The ,
arch we have just noticed Is called en air messing, and
the escaping air moues over the bolt of the arch, while
the fresh air is entering to the workings of each district
underneath these arches orals trimmings. It is neemeary
to form an sir crossing over every principal winning
drift leading to every, district in the mine. From this
point the air follows i straight coarse to the free of the
winning Mitts; then. after ventilating she farm of the
drifts, it Is pissed along the nearest headway to the
foam of the boots, into which the air is throws by ebeck
boards ;diced in an angular manner In the headway
court*, so that when the body of air atrikes the char
board, it is guided into the end of the bard, which it
ventilates by its centrifugal force. A road is left through
these check hoards barely sufficient for the passage of
the Wagons. Ohs of those cheek' boards , is erected at
eiery lord end. But when the horde see finished, by
tommunkating with the new beadways iii hdvance, the
cheek boards are taken down and reererted at the ends
Of the new horde, which arefet off from the new head

PROYESSOR O. J. WOOD—
DUI Stra—teselicited. I send you this certificate.—
..Vier being nearly bald for a long thiece,ead having tried
all the hair restoratives extant,-and baring no tkith in
any. I was it:lanced, on bearing of Tours to give ite trial.
Itplaced myself In the hands of a barber, and hid my
head rubbed with a good stiff brush, and the Restora
tive than applied and well rubbed in. till the scalp was
aglow This I repeated every Morning: and in three
weeks the youngtair appeared and grew rapidly from
- August last till the present time, and is now thick, black
and strong—soft end - pleasant to the Wadi; whereas.
betbre. it was harsh aad wiry, wind little then was of it.
and that little wiz - disappearing very •rapidly. I still
..see your Restorative about twice a week, and shall won
have a good and perfect crop of hair. Now, I had read
of these things—and who has not? but bays not seen
hitherto any case where any ,person's. hair was .really
benefited by any of the hair tonic, kr-, of the day: and
it really gives me pleasure to record the reiult of my es
perience. I have recommended your preparation to
others. and It already has a large and general sale
throughout theTertitory. The people here know its of
feats, and have confidence In it. The supply you sent
