Railroad.
The Anthracite Coal trade the past week was quite
light The break in the Delaware Division of the
PENNSYLVANIA Canal has limited operations very mate
rally by way of the Lehigh Navigation and the
destruction Of bridge on the NewJersey Railroad,
still interrupted trade by the Lehgh Valley Railroad
which reports only 9O3 tuns for the week ending
Saturday last and the Lehigh Navigation for the week
ending the same time only ASP tuns. The reported
tunnage from the Schuykl also continue light, the
result of want Of orders and very full supply of coal
on the wharves. This condition of things, we under
stand is not likely to improve much for two or three
weeks vet if so soon. The Schuykill Canal shipped
for the week ending Thursday 80 5s2 tuns and for
the season PA 263 tuns against liS i62 tuns to the
came time last year. The Reading Railroad brought
- > FINN and Ga
the wear 1924 tuns, against ,2iS tuns to
responding time in 1856. The decline of shipments
from the Schuylkil region is about 80, 600 tuns.

repcy of the United States. We learn also that the
validity of the law OF 1851 will be tested on these pro-
tested bls.
