Report of (be Committee appointed io superintend
the Burning of Che Iron Safes, at Reading, Pel.
27, 1857.
“The undersigned, members of the committee, do
respectfully report, that we saw the two Safes origi
nally agreed upon by FarreJs & Herringartd Evans
& Walson, placed side by side in a furnace, viz:
The Safe in use by the Paymaster of the Philadcl
phia and Reading Railroad Company, in his office
at Reading, manufactured by Parrels & Herring,
and the safe in use by H. A. Lanlz, in his store,
manufactured by Evans & Watson, and put in books
and papers precisely alike.
The fire was started at B.J o’clock, A. M., and
kept up until four cords of green hickory, two cords
dry oak and half chestnut lop. wood were; entirely,
consumed, the whole under the superintendence of
the subscribers, members of the Committee. The
Sales were then cooled off with water, after which
they were opened and the books and papers taken
out by the Committee and sent to H. A. Lanlz’s
store for public examination, alter they were first
examined and marked by the Committee. The
books and.papers taken from the Safe manufactured
by Etans & Watson were but slightly affected by
the intense heat, while those taken from the Safe
manufactured by Farrels & Herring, were in oup
judgment, damaged fully fifteen per cent more than
those taken from Evans 6c Watson’s Safe.
Wc believe the above lo have been a fair and im
partial trial of the respective qualities of both Safes.

The Farms consist of the boat limestone Poll of the most
superior quality for farming, iu a rapidly imploring place,
into which an extensive emigration is now pouring. j The
property Is located in Klk County, Peniiajlvania, In the itudat
of a thriving population of some 10,000. The climate is per
fectly healthy, and the terrible plague of the west fever Is
unknown, it also has an abundance of the best quality of
Coal and Iron. The price to buy it out i< from $3 to $2O per
acre, payable by Instalments, to be located at the time ot pur
chasing. or a share ol 20 acres enlUTtug to locate the gauiefor

In considering the advantages of emigrating to this locality
the following me presented:
The soil io a rich limestone, capable of racing the
heaviest crops, owing to which this settlement has attained
its present prosperity.
.S i cowl —it is the centre of the great North Ifest Cbal Da
rio, and is destined soon to l»ocome one of the greatest biisi
ne-s places in the State. It will supply the great Luke mar
ket, (according to population and trav el the greatest In the
irnion.) It has five workable selns of the best Bituminous
Coal* amounting in the agregatc to'over 22 feet, which makes
22,000 tons of coal under each acre. This will make the laud
of Inotemablo value.
The eminent state g&Hogist Dr.Chas.T..TacksonofPoston 3
has made a gcologuca! smvoy of tlie land, and analysed the
coal, tho iron oie and the bun-tone. This repoit together
with map-* will be furnlahod to inquirers.
Third —Three railroads arc laid out through this property.
TlmSuubury and Eric Railroad gives iib a market for oureoul
to the lakes—it nms from Erie to Philadelphia. A large part
of tlu-4 road hat. been finished, and Is now in running order.
A heavy force is now working from Erie towards our land in
the western direction, the means for the completion of which
has been raised— it Will faOon be fini-hed. The Alleghany
Valley Railroad .connect-* us with New Yolk. Boston and I’itts

There art* already good Turnpike Roads running through

nionuto the emigration and aettkmeufwhlth has already ui

who w.tnts to provide bim.M-lf a home in an e.isy way, and
make n settlement where In* can live in prosperity and inde

schools, hotels, ■‘tores, =aw mills, gri-t mills, and eveiytbinyr
desired.' There io a c.udi market at hand. The lnnil*cr trade
last j oat amounted to over two hundred million feet of lum
ber. In a short time, owing to the coal, it will become still
more valuable, as a number of iron works and manufactories
willsnou bo-tailed; th>y are at pre-ent ■uniting tbem ex
