Extract of letter from Gentleman in
Charlottesville, dated 10Th inst:
You were quite correct in your recollcc-
tons of what | stated about the price Of wood
and coal here now, and in 1857. la 1857, both
anthracite and btuminous coal cost, nj least,
81 TO SD the short ton. In Feb 1858, |
sent to Richmond for hhdS. anthracite coal,
which contained together. perhaps bushels,
or two beyond ton, and by the time II reach
ed my house the cost was SlG.15. liza July,
1858, united with a large company, who
got together several hundred tons, brought
up in open fat cars in the dull season, we
taking the risk Of getting it divided correctly
among ourselves, and in this way | got ten
tons of 1000 lbs. at SS.75, which was the
cheapest coal ever bought here. 1t can be had
now, under the same condition, and risks at
1926 or $3.50 This for anthracite; the other
is about the same price: and yet at this
price, it is very considerably cheaper than
wood
If You you deliver coal here at from $3.50
to s. per ton, you can sweep the market, and
sell, should say, 10000 tons"
