salt mines of Nevada are almost startling in amount
A single bed there is computed to cover fifty two
thousand acres. 1t is solid rock salt, ninety five
per cent. fine. It now yields at the rate of two
million bushels per annum. The, water rushes up
from distance of about thirtyfve feet, and makes
a constant deposite of the finest rock salt. 1t is
proposed to sink shafts at various points, in hopes
of striking some spot where water will not be touch
ed, and where the salt can be quanied, as in Hun
gary and Poland.

such hearty sympathy with the manifestly

country to-day, is a fearful relapse into

paper has again come to hand in our place,
and is a very welcome visitor among US

you AN put me down as a "life member"
for the old "WEsTERN RESERVE CHRoEI-
Gle" Perhaps You would ike to hear
from this part of the State? We have
located in the village of CcshoetOn, which
is the county seat of Coshocton County
and is beautifully located on the banks of
the AuskIngum river, with bottom land
a mile and a half in width, fertile as a
garden. The people are as kind as any
that 1t is The lot of man to fall among
Schools and churches are fine. Minerals
abound in great quantities and are of a
fine quality. In fact there is everything
here needed to make a man happy and
comfortable. If any of my friends think
differently, let them call and see for them
selves.
As for the politics of this county, it is
Democratic by a small majority, and they
are afraid of the Western Reserve Yam
KEGS changing the vote of the county, as
they found it to be the case to q certain
extent the last election.
That this is to be q business place there
is no doubt I am now circulating sub
scriptiol papers for a Rolling Mill with
great success. We contemplate having it
in running order by the first of next July.
The facilities for shipping TO and from
here, are good by the Pittsburgh, Colum-
bus and Cincinnati r. R., also the Ohio
Canal. The Cleveland, GAINESVILLE and
Cincinnati Z. R., has surveyed through
this place, and Corporation papers been
fled in the Office of the Secretary of State.
The road is already built to Millersburgh,
and from GAINESVILLE to Cincinnati, leaving
only fifty miles unfinished, and five mil
lion dollars subscribed. The company will
push the work as fast as possible.
Yours, etc, ALBERT CHRISTY.
