June Sd, 1867.
MESSRS. EDITORS 1t affords me much
pleasure to say to you in relation to your
inquiry in regard to the success of our ex-
pertinent III making coke metal at this
place, that it has been Il perfect success as
far as demonstrating beyond the shadow
of doubt, that we have all the requisite
material here for the successful manufac-
turing of pig metal with coke. The only
difficulty we encountered was the want
of sufficient blast-as is takes a much
stronger blast to smclt iron with coke
than charcoal. 1t appears to have been Il
mooted question up to this time as to
whether the coal in the Broad Top region
would make coke suitable for the man
ufacture of pig metal. But now, / am
happy to say, all doubts of that kind NAV
be safely laid aside, and the position as
sumed, that we have a valley here, that
III mineral wealth and natural advantages
for the manufacturing of iron, is second
to no other locality in our State, fact
that the capitalists of this great manufac-
turing State will not long remain igno-
rant Of The great mistake that was
made in the early development of this re-
gion, was the fact everything else but coal
lands We're lost sight of, instead of the
pioneers of this valley securing proper
tiOnate amount of iron ore lands with
their coal lands, which would have rem
dered them independent, in the event of
a stagnation in the coal trade, having the
facilities at home for the consumption of
their raw material, which would enable
them to ship the manufactured article to
market and still be able to realize a hand
some profit. | venture the prediction
that within five years you Will be sur
prised at the progress that will have been
made in this valley. All that, in my
opinion, appears to be necessary is the
capital and enterprise to convert this en-
tire valley into a busy scene of industry
and prosperity. Very truly yours,
JOHN +. LOWRY.

The proposition met little favor. 1t
was argued, that if let alone, the

a SONG FOR THE SEASON.

Poor FLORA M'FLIMsAY had nothing
to wear!
An embarrassing fix, you'll agree, for
a maid;
But I'll bet the cigars that if We'll had
been there,
Such thing Of Miss Flora wonld not
have been said.
For We'll would have furnished her
pants and a vest
Not exactly the garb for maiden so
But better, far better, even thus to be
drest,
Than to go like Miss Flora with
nothing to wear!
Did you ever see We'll ?-ifyou "haint"
you can go
70 his fine store, in the old Bank, on
Where he sells bis choice goods so amaz-
ing low
That his customers say: He's got cheap
on the brain!'
Full often the buyers say: Pray Mr..
We'll
ASK more for your goods, they're so
Wondrously nice.'
But in vain do they beg MIR. WIS too
firm
To be driven to take any more than
his price!
Pass his door when you may, you will
meier fail to see
d Dig croaed Of customers hurrying
there.
Every one Of them anxious as anxious
can be
To purchase nice goods, and have
something to wear!
They enter the store, sometimes, ragged
dRd soied,
But very few minutes transforms
them complete
They throw off those garments, all tat
tered and spoiled.
And emerge as tine gentleman out on
the street.
And ladies who turned up their noses
quite high,
AS these men sought the storein their
ragged array,
Greet their egress with smiles, and q
love-lighted eye,
And in tones low and langulShln@,
whisper, good 10y"
Then hurry to Well! Take your green
bricks along!
Dress yourself like a gentleman, now
while you may!
And you'll thank us profoundly for
writing this song,
And gratefully sing it for many day!

RIeH ScENE.-A rather rich and lu-
dicrous scene was enacted at the Depot
last Monday. A gushing maiden and
her gay Aothario were waiting for the
train--he to take passage, she to wit
ness his departure. Seated in loving
proximity upon trunk, his arm en-
circlng her waist, they talked Of the
past and planned for the future, care
less Of the attention and remarks which
their position elected from the COOKERS
on in Venice He was going for to
leave her" going to Hedgesville, and
she would see him no more-for two
mortal weeks. The thought was heart
rending. With charming abandon she
inclined her head on his shoulder and
wept. She ''loved with love that was
more than love" and didn't care darn
who knowed it, He was in the same
delectable fix. And right there, in the
broad light of noon, in the presence of
fifty witnesses, he leaned over and kiss
ed her, and didn't seem to care Il con-
tinental if corn was two dollars q bush
el. The crowd applauded and laughed,
and one impudent fellow told him to
.sstop that but mary stop; the train
was approaching, and he had no time
to lose. He was oblivious to all around
save the dulcina at his side The train
came up, the passengers gazed on the
scene with wonder and merriment, but
our hero remained unmoved by the jeers
Of the ''rabble.' He was :'master Of
the situations and brayely held the
position under heavy fire Of ridicule
until the conductor called out ''all
aboard" when, with a last kiss like
heightened sweetness, and a longing.
lingering look cast behind, he ''got
aboard and was swiftly carried screen
miles far away from his dear Jemima.
How cruel the memorable fate that thus
separates for two terrible weeks such
sushingiy loving hearts.
