ate money or the bauk notes Of any Of tho
Southern States taken at par. Tho capacity
ofthe present furnaces is equal to about Seven
thousand i've hundred bushels, one hundred
and fifty iour horse wagon loads per day.
The distances to railroad and water cotnuu-
nicstion are: tn tn. Elrgiaia Central Raft
road, Mt JackSon'S River, i;i3 miles; To the
james River aud Kanawha Canal, at Buchan-
an, 160 miles; to rne Virginia and Tennessee
Railroad, at Dublin, ll0 miles. On the last
named route salt might he taken in batteaux
from the Salines 70 L"up Creek, OIL kdnawha
River, and from Packs Ferry To New River
bridge, on New River, thus reducing wagon
transportation to about III miles. To wagon
all the way to Dublin would require about
three thousand four horse wagons to take all
the salt from here as fast as made. As yet,
only few hundred wagons have been load-
ed. Let every one who has teau send frr
salt, as the intervening country is very desti-
tute Every wagon should hring its own
supply OF corn and hay for the team. Grain,
bacon, jaws, tobacco, or Utmost any kind of
loading could be exchanged for salt. The ca
