Meeting of Coal Men.

The convention of the owners of coal
mines on the lower Ohio, held in this city
on Saturday, brought together a body of
highly respectable gentlemen, who are en-
gagged in the development of one of the
most important interests in the West. The
meeting was designedly called for the inter
change of views and to adopt measures to
promote the success Of the business in
which its members were engaged. 1t prov
ed to be very harmonious and agreeable
gathering. All the operators of mines adj
mitted that the business up to the present
period had made but a poor return upon the
heavy expenditures made in bringing their
works into operation but they looked for
ward with confidence. to the future for most
ample rewards for labor and expenditures
Many statements were made exhibiting an
astonishing increase in the demand and con-
sumption of coal The accounts of one of
the largest mines on the river, showed that
one single packet, running on the Lower
Ohio, had taken more coal from that mine
during the year 1857, than was mined and
sold to all the steamers passing the same
point in 1847, ten years ago. Three mines
in one vicinity, whose whole delivery iii
l847 was less than 100000 bushels, mined
and sold during the past year nearly 4OO,-
900 bushels Is. .--st.F 5.s.'
From the statistics of coal mining in the
West, it appeared that the amount of coal
dug on this side of the Alleghanies, already
exceeded the production of all the mines on
the Eastern slope. At the West the great
est portion of the coal is consumed in the
vicinity of the mines; is taken by steamers
from the pits mouth, and finds a home
market At the East, it is transported TO
distant markets makes greater public
exhibit of business, and employs more labor,
but the quantity taken from the Earth, was
less to the East of the Alleghanies, than in
the Mississippi Valley. This mines now
open on the Ohio between Cannelton and
Smithland have the means for delivering,
upon an average, IS, 900 bushels daily, and
on some occasions, when the demand from
steamers has been active, they have actually
delivered that quantity in single day.
In l847 the largest delivery, from the
mines then in operation below the Fails
did not amount to 10, 900 bushels The in
crease in ten years has been more than six,
fold The amount of money expended on
the Ohio, below Louisville, since l847, in
opening mines building roads and providing
the necessary machinery for delivering coal,
exceeded 81 100000; and about 100000
has been paid for coal lands. The gentle
men were surprised at the amount of capital
invested, and extent of their business, when
their statistics were collected.

How 10 Tell Bad Eggs.

OF the many ways to tell bad eggs,
l know of only one that | can pnt en-.
tire confidence in.
"lf an egg will float it is bad, )" says
one. "lf it is warm at both ends,
look out for IT," says another. "lf
it has not clear look when you hold
il against a strong light, have a care"
says third, and so on a half dozen
ways beside. Now any one that has
tried the first way, knows that bad
egg will sometimes sink; and as to the
second plan, it is often difficult to tell
in fresh egg which is the warm end;
and as to the plan of looking through
an egg, | would really like to know
what car be seen in the operation.-
But
The true 1oay to tell good eggs is to
put them in a pail of water, and il
good they will lie on their sides, al
ways; if bad they will stand on their
small ends, the large ends always up.
permost, unless they have been shak-
en- considerably, when they will stand
either end up. Therefore, bad egg
can be told by the way itrests in wat,
er-always end up, never on its side.
Any egg that lies flat, is good to eat
and can be depended upon.-E g., in
THE Homestead.

CHARCOAL AND TAINTED MEAT.-A
Connecticut lady sayS:-"Some chick
ems, during the recent warm weather,
had become slightly tainted. These
were stuffed with frcshly-heated char
coal, and in twelve hours were as sweet
and fresh as could desired, not leaving
the least dsagreeable odor or flavor.
Shortly after, on examining some
fresh pieces of pork and fearing that
they could not be pre- served until it
was convenient to cook them, she
packed them in a pan of powdered
charcoal, and thus kept them with
complete success"
