Virginia Coal Fields.

Ex-Judge Charles P Latham, of
Bramwell, and formerly of Lynch
burg, gave speci i correspondent of
the Richmond Dispatch an account of
the coal deposits of the Southwest.
He is connected with the mining op-
erations and seems to be thoroughly
up on the busine s. In reply to iu-
quiries, he said: Here (Poc4hon:as)
we have a coal fed fifty miles long
and twenty wide. Six years ago you
could ride all day through this region
without meeting a single individual.
Now we have population of 10000,
1000 coke ovens and some 400 more
IN course of construction. Year before
last we shipped from this point alone
not quite a million of tons of coal.
last year we shipped 100000 tons,
and this year We will ship 2,225,000
tons, exclusive Of coke-I speak only
of coal. The largest output from any
one entry OF coal mine ever made
was made here few days ago. In a
single day, through one of these en-
tries, we took $500 tons of COAL" And
after pausing for a moment, the Judge
continued:
Il will tell you now the strangest of
all. Only ont fifth of the amount We
would raise from the mine is sent off.
The rolling stock of the road is taxed
to its utmost to move :he one filth of
the amount which we could furnish if
there were transpor alton for il. You
may fely say that we have barely be-
gun the development of this mighty
coal field"
