Ne7o Orleans, March 7lh, 1855.
During the year 1854, the furnaces of The Mel
ting Department Of the II. S. Branch Mint, in
this city, have all been constructed of the !. Cold
spring Fire-Brick.n These furnaces are daily
maintained for many hours at a temperature Of
form 1000 deg. to 5000 deg, and have been used
uninterruptedly during several months. without
the least repairs, and are yet in use. / consider
the Coldspring Friedrich superior to any manu-
featured in the United States, and equal to most
of the celebrated kinds imported from foreign
countries.
NJ F. BONZANO,

New ORLEANS. March 9th, 1855.
In the summer of 1853, I used partly the Cold
spring Friedrich, partly the English and Pitts
burg, in constructing q bagasse burniag-furnace on
my Fairview plantation lii the parish of st. Charles.
In the following year. t1S541 l made some altera-
tons to that furnace. again using partly the Cold
spring and partly the English Brick. This furnace
during the two grinding seasons was subject to
intense heat uninterruptedly for some four months
each year, and found that the Coldspring Bricks
had borne ii quite as well as the English and far
better than the fittsbuTg.
