FROM LYKENS VALLEY.

DEING so much " Poor Coal" in the market, the
ID undersigned would beg leave to call the aiten-
ton Of the citizens OF Portland t. above named
Coal. Il
It is free from impurities, and when used with rea
sonabie burns entir.l y to ashes which are of
the deepest red of any Coal known
An equal quantity ignited will yield at least one
third more heat ihan any other coal. 1t is more
quickly gnited than any other anthracite tthus saw
ing expense in kndngsl; while after ignition with
proper reduction OF draft 1t will outast all other
coal, and remain longer on fire.
A much less quantity Of this coal can be kindled
and will retain its fire, than be possibly used OF
white ash; this TACT will result Ia large savings in
spring and tail, and at such times require only
moder tie degree of heat.
In shot, iI is the most eoono nical coal known,
and needs but trial TO give 1t the preference over
all Others.
We would also call your attention to our other SUI
perior Goals such as Lehixh, Johus, Grisce mn,
and other White and Red Ash Goals suitable for
Furnaces, Pdrior Stores, Ranges, &c. Also on hand
