We learn that . number of the boats new
coming up take on their coal at Buffalo,
and We are informed that the river men
pronounce it superior in quality to the
Rock Island coal. for making steam. We
understand, also. that our packets have
tried it and consider 1t better than that
which they have been purchasing from the
Rock Island mines. and are going to nee it
altogether. Capt. Clark and Col. Young
are just the men to put the matter through.
and they will soon have large quantity Of
their excellent coal piled up in our city for
winter consumption. Their Astboats and
barges are being put in readiness for .
heavy fall business. We would not advise
our citizens to be in any hurry about lay
ing in their winters supply, a. Messra
Clark 4 Young inform Us that tn y can and
will furnish coal two cents per bushel cheap
er from their mines, than any that is now
brought to our market. We will have to
build Railroad to the new mines, and by
90 doing save thousands of dollars every
month in difference of price in coal, and
keep our money in our own city and coun
ty, instead of sending it away to that conn.
try from which it 10 not known to return.
