ARTIFICIAL COKE FOR MELTING PIG-IRoS-
TESTIMONY OF AN EXPERT AS TO THE VALUE
OF NUrTALBURG AND QUINNIMONT GOALS
Mr.. Asa Snyder has written letter to Colo
mel C.. S. Darlington, president OF the James
River and Kanawha Canal Company, giving,
in response to an inquiry, his opinion OF the
relative value of artificial coke made from
the Nuttalburg and Quinnimont Goals Of
West Virginia and anthracite coal for melt
ing pig-iron. Mr.. Snyder says:
"My experience In the use OF the cupola
OF Asa Snyder & Co. has been decidedly IA
vorable to the coke; the tests were very Sc
we're, as the iron was required to be OF great
fluidity for enriching their castings. The
iron was more limpid than that made from
the best anthracite coal. 1t aoaS Improved
in quality, and the same weight OF coke in
creased the product of molten iron: The
ash and cinder were less than the reslduum
of anthracite coal. The cupola requires
less chipping, and consequently the lire
walls are Of greater durability. Less wood
and charcoal are required for firing. Ihe
chief objection to the coke is its frlable ma
ture, by which q considerable percentage IS
lost, or so reckoned, in the handling; but
even this is less by comparison than would
be presumed. The fine clippings OF an
thracite, occasioned by handling and break
ing to size, amount to about five per cent,
,rhich is all acaSte; whereas those OF coke
are probably eight per cent, but even the
small dust of coke will burn up clean, and
nothing be lost"
"The control OF this connection by the
canal will secure to Richmond the pros
perity which will result from the cheap
union OF such iron fuel and iron ores, and
the cheap transportation OF their product to
her factories and warehouses. Indeed, If
our citizens have the forecast to aid in Sc
curing the connection between the canal
and the Chesapeake and Ohio railroad, as
provided in the act OF the last Legislature,
/ believe that our city will, within the next
twenty-five years, not only become great
centre OF iron manufacture, but a mart for
the distribution of pig metal to the markets
of this country and OF the world"

ever, that the total white registration this

registration the lowest, within the period
included in the above exhibit. In 1867
the colored majority was 961. Now the
white majority is 2,244.
There are at least 1000 men in Richmond
