MINING AND MINERAL
NOTES.

advance asked for.
CoPPER ore has been discovered in
Saville township, Perry county, Pa,
and shaft is being sunk for the pur-
pose OF working it, if found to exist III
paying quantities,
THE amount Of coal at New Orleans on
the first Of December consisted oi l'6
boats and two barges. During Noyem-
Der the consumption amounted to q
boats and three barges. The arrivals
during November were thirteen boats
from Pittsburgh.
The out put OF coal in the Cumbcr-
land Md, region for the week ending
November 80 was 81 ,5S2 tons. For the
same week last year, l0,Ol2 tons, an i'll
crease of ~ ,569 tons. Total for the year
to date, 1,570,723 tons; same time last
year, l,4A9,l2 tons, an increase Of Eli
600 tons.
WORK was recently resumed i'll the
large coal shaft Of the Northern Illinois
Coal and Iron Company, at La Sale,
ILLINOIS,, WHICH Has btti
since last winter; and all Of the other
coal shafts Of La Sale and Peru are now
in operation, with fair prospect OF get
ting in good seasons work.
REPORTS from the different coal works
in the Mahonisg Valley, Ohio, are rat her
encouraging. number Of mines that
have not worked very steady Tor some
time are now running, giving employ
ment to large number OF men. The
relighting up of furnaces and mills in
this valley will be Of great benefit to the
coal operators.
THERE are no new features in connec-
ton with the trade in the bituminous
Goals. saws the Coal Journal, but from all
that can he gathered there is bound to
be large trade done next season. We
have many intimations from parties IN
the business that sales are being made to
parties who used anthracite, aud when
the value Of the soft coal becomes known
no doubt the tonnage will largely IN
crease for steam uses.
