DEMAND FoR CUMBEKLAND CoAu.-rhe
Cumberland (Md.) Aleganisu says: 'swhile
the susre nsion OF the tril OF the German steam
ships, 10y reason of the war in Europe aud other
untoward circumstances, have comb ued to de-
press the coal trade OF this region, we may ex-
tract grain OF comfort fsom the fact that the
demand for Cumberland cDal on the New Eng
land seaboard has largely increased. The re
celpts OF the products of our minCs AZ Boston
from the LIST Of January 20 the 18th Of Septem-
Der, lsos, were los, ,9l9 tons From Ist OF Anuary
TO the 18th Of September, Is7o, they reached
l42 $40 tons, an increase of f2 527 tons. During the
anne time the receipts Of anthracite coal fell OF
e,252 tons, and OF Nova Scotia coal SIS tons.
THIS y a very encouraging ind cation that the
manufacturers Of that section are fairly begin
Ding 70 recognize the merits OF the semi-bitn mi
nous coal OF this region for manufacturing and
steam generating purposes. The experiments OF
last year during the strike In the auth racite coal
field appear to have been productive OF lasting
results, in New England at least, and upon these
results, ss developed In tue increased copsump-
tion OF Cumberland coil this wear, it Is reas ,na-
BILE TO assume that its superiority will be 80 fully
demonstrated by continued use a. 20 ultimately
supersede the anthracite Cor mana turing
