The advertisement OF the Erie Rail-
way, as published this week, has a time
table corrected by VIM. R. Barr, Esq,

all odds the most comfortable and enjoy

about 1! miles south Of Warren, intends
drilling for coal in the spring. Several
gentlemen who have had experience in
prospecting and developing coal fields,
express considerable confidence in the
belief that coal underlies Mr.. MurdOck's
farm, and probably the lands adjacent.
Iron ore, in small specimens, have been
found-on the place. We hope Mr.. Muir
dock, the Messrs. Stone, Sears, and
others in that locality may find beds OF
black diamonds underlying their broad
acres.
