burg Post Of the 18th says
We have been favored with small specimen
of coal from the neighhorhood Of Cairo station
Richie county, Virginia, on the Northwestern
Virginia Railroad, which is Of peculiir quality.
1t has been tested by various chemists, and has
been found to be as it were ,crystalized mineral
OIL being without qualification, and free from
any foreign substance. The test has shown that
it will yield ono hundred and sxty-fye gallons of
crude oil to the ton. After one refining process
eight-two per cent. of refined oil was obtained !;
after second distillation sixty one per cent Of
the whole amount was obtained in pure oil, and
thirty per cent Of lubricating oil and paraine BY
taking portion OF the coal and LAYING it on a
hot stove or shovel, its extraordinary quality il
obvious. 1t melts and runs like wax,
The vein which has been developed is upon
the land Of Mr.. William Campbell. The posi-
ton OF the vein Is different from that in which
coal Is usually found. 1t is not horizontal, but
IN cone-like or vertical shape, running over q
NIL. The VEN Is not more than four feet vide,
though uniathoma6ie IN depth, as shaft sunk

ton will vote as a unit for Hunter If the other
Southern States come up to his support, his
nomination IS sure. We believe he il the first
choice af fnur CT five OF the Southern States,
and the second choice OF the whole. Others
