Joseph F Cackley is boring for salt
water and coal, at point on his lands
known as the Beaver Pond" short
distance east of Cross Roads. He says
he is going to know what is under his
lands before he stops. He owns over
seven hundred acres, and he and his
sons together own over one thousand
acres, of the best lands in Madison town
ship. He is very sanguine that he will
Ind the jackson Shaft coal. If he has
1000 acres of that coal, in that rich ore
region, he will be rich man. The first
point where he bored, he struck quick
sand twelve feet from the surface, and a
stream of water gushed up to a distance
of two feet above the surface, and con.
tinues to flow. He says that the water
will be very valuable on his farm, as it is
sufficient to water five hundred head o.
cattle In the next boring he has reacli
ed a distance of SO feet, and is now il
sand rock, having tubed the quicksand
and now has it under control. He expects
after getting through the sand rock t
reach slate, and then coal. He thinks h
will reach coal at depth of $50 feet, a
the locality is 20 feet lower than Port
land

and pledged them for some twenty dol
lars, and then ran off The Office wat

We do not want our readers to think
that the active measures taken by the
authorities to prevent disease indicate
any unusual sickness in our town. The
health of the place is good But the
cholera is on. the river. and prevention
is much better than TO wait until the
pestiience shall reach us.

Another most important coal discovery
has been made in this county. 1t will be
remembered that we have been of the
.apinion that the Jackson shaft coal vein
is the same that crops out on the lands
of Jackson Gilliland, in Hamilton town
ship near jackson Furnace, fourteen
miles southwest from jackson. Last
week James r. Hunter found three feet
vein on his lands, nearly ON direct line
| between Jackson and the Gilliland banks,
and about half way, being seven miles
from Jackson, in the edge of Franklin
township The coal is twenty feet from
the surface, and James L. Rice, who had
the boring made, and who is an expert
enced worker in coal, told us that it has
every appearance of the jackson coal.
OF course it cannot be fully tested until
a shaft be sunk. It is about the right
level to be the same vein which at Jack
son is 40 to 60 feet below the surface
cropping out at Gilliland's.
