DISCOVERIES OF COAL.

1t would seem that Michigan is likely
to furnish coal in quantities equal to any
Of the Western States. If the discove-
ries Of deposits should continue as they
have for the past two or three years, it
will be but a short time before the State
will produce enough coal for its own con-
sumption, at least. The first discoveries
were at jackson, and number of compa-
MES are now engaged in mining it with
the very best results; the yield and the
quality are fully equal TO the anticipations
which were had of it. Further discove-
ries have been made north Of jackson, in
Eaton and Ingham counties, and compan-
les have been organized which are now
working them. Last fall coal was also
discovered in Hillsdale county, in the vi
cinity of Jonesyille, a short distance be-
low the surface. Explorations made up
on the spot have revealed the existence of
hne vein. II lies about twenty feet be-
low the surface; is Of good quality and
considerable extent although its exact di-
mansions have not yet been ascertained.
A company has been formed 10 inyesti.
gate this deposit, and if the coal should
prove to be Of as good quality as at Rrst
appears, an organization will be immedi-
ately perfected for working the vein.
These facts substantiate beyond cavi
the suggestions which have been hitherto
entertained, that carboniferous strata ex
ist in the central part Of the State, ex
tending from north TO south. Coal hal
already been found in no less THAI foul
counties. bet. Free Press.
