INDUCEMENT FOR IMUESTMENT !
2300 Acres of Coal Land.
1500 Acres Iron Ore Land.
This large and very valuable Mineral Estate,
lying in the Broad Top coal field, and the hea
vy Icon Ore deposites adjacent to it, along the
line of the Huntingdon & Broad Top Railroad,
is now thrown into market, as to Ito accessi
ble to all who desire to invest a small sum of
money, hi the saftst, rheum,' and thetas/ way.
The Brood Top coal is a pure, compact, easily
ignited and durable fuel. It is admirable liar
domestic purposes, having but a trace of sul
phur, giving a powerful, steady, and durable
heat, and 111.11 cheaper and tar more healthful
than Anthracite. It is ad excellent coal for
Laming Lime, fur Smalling, and Rolling Mills,
greatly superior even to Pittsburg coal as a
steam generator, and unequalled for the purity
sod r strength cj its coke.
Mining Certificates are now issuing which
cover 16(10 acres of land on the east. and west
sides Or this Scud-Anthracite coal field in Hun
tingdon and Bedford counties, Pa., much of
which has no superior for the quantity and
Slrmliip of its coal. All the finest seams are
'chair:iced by these Certificates, the Riddle seam
to 7 litet thick, the Cook 4 to 6 feet, the
Speer sto 7 feet, the Berner 3} to 44. Each
Certificate entitles the holder to mine and ee
ry away ONE HUNDRED TONS OF' COAL
and also tomes undivided interest iu 20 coal
tracts of 20 flares each, on the east and west
sides of the Mountain, and to one undivided in.
:crest in perpetual mining privileges covering
00 tracts of 25 acres each or Iron ore * lands.
Ind the price of each Cerlificalo is pt rultEE
DOLLAR S.
The coal mines close, to the Huntingdon and
Broad Top Railroad will be put ill worki ii ngori•
der, and preparation made tbr sending coal to
tuarket during this winter and next spring.
'the stile of certificates will be closed, and the
gift lands passed into the hands of the trustees
tore distribution at. the earliest possible day.
Each coal tract to be distributed is guaranteed
to contain a seam of Semi-Anthracite coal, each
tract of Iron Ore hind is guaranteed to contain
use= of Fossil Iron Ore.
The coal and iron ore lands to be distributed
are fartuues in themselves. -
The right to mine 100 tons of coal done is
worth $25, at the price now charged . at the
itaimiatim These certificates gives the same
right on equally good coal land for Three Dol
lars, and adding two dollars for incidental cx
pcttses
Ibr work, their holders obtain coal of
the to,/ quality more than three times as cheap
as it can he laid in any coal-field which iv de.
velopi•il in Pennsylvania. • The mining leads
ou the west side are close to the Huntingdon &
Broad Top Railroad, and on the cast side they
arc at the very gates of the coal field. These
C e rtificates domed &predate. The cheapness
anal excellency of thin coal insure an extensive
and vonstantly increasing demand fur it, which
will put these certificates at a premitun in a
short time.
