Coal NINE PROSPECTS The indications
for coal in considerable quantity at the
grey stone quarry of John Yinghng near this
place, seem to be on the increase. An ex-
animation was made this week by gentle
man connected with the State Geological
Survey who advises digging down to depth
of twenty-five feet, at least, as the surface
indications are favorable to a considerable
deposit of the product, and are said to be
identical with the signs in the coal fields.
The specimens now beng taken out are
small but of a good grade of hard coal.
Another gentleman connected with the
State Survey, who is better acquainted with
the geological formation peculiar to coal
deposits, will soon visit the quarry and give
it thorough inspection. Mr.. Yinging is
not excited over the prospect but is assured
that he has plenty Of good building stone
whether he has coal mine or not.-Cdrrol
