CoRUNNA Coal FIELDs.-The editor OF
the Corunna Democrat has recently made a
visit to these fields, north of that village, and
thus speaks Of them:
"a. Macarthur ESQ, the chief proprietor
has opened the bed on the bank of Coal Bed
Greek, on the public highway, and scarcely
out of its bounds. The upper strata, in
which they are now at work, is from three and
half to four feet thick, and about the same
distance under the ground. The quality Of
the coal is superior. 1t is used extensively in
this village, not only in the stores and shops,
as cheap article of fuel, but also upon the
forge; and we are assured it is fully equal to
the coal used in Detroit, which is brought from
Ohio. The bed is opened at different points,
nearly half mile apart, and we have no hes
itancy, from discoveries already made, in pro-
nouncing the supply inexhaustible. From one
to two cents per bushel will pay the expense
of mining, and the coal sells readily at the
bed for ten cents, showing clean profit Of
eight dollars on every hundred bushels taken
out of the bed. Suppose bushel weighs fif-
ty pounds, forty bushels would make tun,
costing at the bed four dollars, and we have
no doubt but it can be delivered at this price
at Detroit, as soon as the railroad shall be
completed to this place.
Millions Of dollars will yet be dug out OF
these beds, and the period is not remote when
they will be 10 Corunna what the salt springs
are to Syracuse"

We have noticed your advertisement, in

or to make display of w.t. Now, Dear
Sirs, if the writing of that article is speci-
men of your mental qualifications" we i'm
agine the time spent over mathematical
problems, Greek quotations, and the dead
languages" would have been far better spent
in some other way, for you have evidently
sighted branches with whichit would be more
suitable for men in your situation to be famil-
lar than with those which you claim to be
able to master with ease."
Of According to your representation, you want
"partner whose mental qualifications are
sufficient to render the domestic circle "Me

tions' What brilliant idea! and from per-
sons who can master with ease Greek quo
tations, &c. Your description of yourselves
is really luminous: "gente as lambs"
seems to embrace all that is worth mention
ing of your characteristics; however, as you
might become liable to charge of vanity, or
egotisln, if you dilated on the point, we will
let that pass and take it for granted that you
are as gentle as you represent.
Your manners too, according to your own
estimate, must be of a high order; perhaps
it would be as well to let others Judge in that
particular l gh
We will say nothing about your form, u
but presume you equal the average of men
in that respect; however, we suggest the pro-
priety of your consulting Others before dub
bing yourselves "Apollos."
If you were in earnest in thus advertising
for wife, we also suggest that you remodel
your advertisement-for no sensible girl will
be captivated by such production, in which
vanity and self-esteem seem to predominant
Your pecuniary liabilities" need only be
mentioned in comparison with the amount o.
means you have wherewith to meet them
and your assertion as to brilliant prospects,

If your design in advertising was merely tc
display your wit, you might as well call it g
failure, and be content to follow mechanical
pursuits" and not attempt to amuse the read
ing public again. 1t is not your forte, and
your craniums might collapse under such eff
forts. Perhaps you may still fatter your
selves with the idea that you are Apollos,
