bound together of parts of the size of pea
to that of pigeon egg, and by exposure to
the weather 1t becomes disintegrated into

called bean ore" "Bean ore" consists of
the oxy-hydrate of iron, and will in many
localities on your land produce over 40 per
cent Of pure iron.
A. Here and there or this land is found
also Hemetite and Silicious iron ore, but
not IN such quantities as to make it import
ant IN the production of iron.
In this connection, | avail myself Of the
opportunity to insinuate comparison with
England, the country which exceeds all
others in the capacity of producing
iron. The annual production of iron in Eng.
land amounts to 1000 600 tons. Nine-tenths
OF all iron is there derived from spharosder-
lite, which likewise, for the most part is
taken from the same geological formation
the permian. In England the iron ore
must, in the first place, be procured by
mining, and then be separated from its i'm.
purlties. Onthe lands Of the Texas Copper
Mining and Manufacturing Company the
ore lies already dug up on the surface and
that, too, in such quantities that it would
suffice to supply the entire great State of
Texas with iron for q hundred years, and
besides, this ore seems to possess this adj
vantage, that 1t contains no injurious adj
mixture for the process of reduction, but
holds in proper proportions all requisite con-
stitucnts. rs in England, the required
stone-coal is found Immediately beneath, or
near by the iron mine, so the same condition
is presented on the lanl of the company.

Rail Shooting.

A correspondent in the Philadelphia
Times of last Sunday, has a readable article
on rail shooting: and after well describing
the way at shooting and getting at the birds
he goes on 10 give some scores Of birds killed
on i ;idc. He says: . Dr. Lewis, in the
1rtcricu4 Sportsman has an account oil Il
score of 19J birds killed on one tide: but we
have been assured that in the recollection
of the oldest pusher Gage ~ no bona iitle
score has ever reached higher than 1l6
birds
Now we presume the writer only alludes
to marshes near his own waters and that
they have fewer birds there liam here We
give below some reliable scores by gentle
men i'll our ueighliurhood :tud i'll our own
marshes, and most uf these scores We're
made before they had come TO use breech-
leaders:
On Friday, Sept 18th, 1878, Mr.. &. W.
Maxwell. pushed by Geo. Alexander, killed
loo, rail birds. On same day. Mr. Il. Marsh
bank, killed 100 rail. Same day, Mr.. Jos.
l.. Wells, pushed by James Hutchinson,
killed l7s rail-!
Some years ago, Mr.. l.. I. Bennett killed
l6l rail and - blue wing teal on one tide
On another tide the same gentleman killed
$50 rail
Major Flummerfeldt, OF Philadelphia,
who nsed to frequently come here on gun
ming trips, has been known to kill 200 rail
on one tide. He was the first man to Use
cartridges ou these marshes. Mr.. Bennett,
says, that if he had had breech- loader the
day he made his larger score, he would have
killed considerably over 200 birds
