R9- The following letter from Prof. EN-
mons, State Gcologist, to the Editor Of the
Register will be read with pride and plea
sure
ASHFORD, Dec. q, 1853.
To SEAroN GALES, EsQ,-Sir:-Will you
be good enough to make the following verbal
corrections of the Geological Report in the
Register.
Page l2G, near the middle of page-for
midst read mildie, and for Strata read Slate.
When the passage will read-'The Coal Strata
lie below the middle Of the Slate beds : and
l may add the sentences just above :-'Slates
over-lio all the Coal seams. Their thickness
above them is about $50 feet
Now it appears that the first seam was cut
Mt 800 feet. When | first saw the statement,
SEINE weeks ago, in the public prints, | re-
marked that this 5 foot seam is not the main
seam. There is Mt least another just below
it which has more than twice the thickness
Of this. So that, it will DO found, that my
estimates Of the quantity of Coal in the Deep
River Coal basin will far exceed the amount
| stated in my Report. | am not at all sur
priscd ut the results Of the boring. l could
not expect, from my own observations, that
the first seam would DO cut nearer the surface
thau oOo teet NJ any place, when the seams
arc covered with the entire mass of states. /
expected also,and sustained my expectations,
that the seams would have become hatter at
q distance from the outcrops.
IL will appear, then, that l nm justified in
assuming the position that, at the point with.
in the out-crop, where the au ger penetrated
the States, there is three times as much Goa
to the acre as / stated in my Report. Thi,
will make 20,400 tons to the acre or fol
every 1000 acres 20 400, 900 tons. This Coal
considering its quality, will be worth in mar
ket 81 per ton, and will amount to S203, 800,
000-ItOo hundred and three million eigh
hundred thousand dollars.

The Great Restorative.

Fecar and Ague cured by DR.. MLane's. Licer Pills.
N~ Mr.. Jonathan Hougham, of West Union,
Park County, Illinois, writes to the proprictors that
he had suffered greatly from a severe and protrac-
ted attack of Fever and Ague, and was completely
restored to health by the use of the Liver Pills a.
lone. These Pills unquestionably possess great
tonic properties, and can be taken with decided ad-
vantage for many diseases requiring invigorating
remedies but the Liver Pills stand pre-eminent as
a means of restoring a disorganized Liver to healthy
action hence the great celebrity they have attain
ed. The numerous formidable diseases arising
from a diseased Liver, which so long bafled the
skill of the most eminent physicians of the United
States, are now rendered easy of cure, thanks to
the study and perseverance of the distinguished
physician whose name this great medicine bears
a name which will descend to posterity as one de-
serving of gratitude. This invaluable medicine
should always be kept within reach and on the
appearance of the earliest symptoms of diseased
Liver, it can be safely and usefully administered
va Purchasers will please be careful to ask for
DR. M'Lane's Celebrated Liver Pills, and take none
else. There are other Pills, purporting to be Liver
Pills, now before the public. DR.. MLane's Liver
Pills, also his Celebrated Vermifuge, can now be
had at all respectable Drug Stores in the United
States and Canada. &c

vessels have been either wrecked completely,
or else dismasted and driven ashore. The
most melancholy portion of this sad intelli-
gence is that n great number of lives are

that some vessels have gone down with all on
