We learn that, though port mine is already worked in sea-leve', yet the water in the so slight a depth as to entail no pause for pumping. is the most other mires. In some oceans about Monte Diablo, the shaft fast that the proportion of water to that of coal is nearly two ticks. This, of course, cuts off a great profit. Some idea of the Co-op trade may be formed from the clearances of brigs and schooner bay, last summer, averaged month. These vessels's always ber as a deck-load and coal in hence the shipments of coal extensive as one would at fi from the number of vessels shipments from Coos Bay far short of 22,000 tons per year. The mines at Bellingham opened in 1857, just before the Fraser River hegira. These located near dehome, and bank of California. The yield diamonds" in 1872 amounted 4,100 tons against 20,284 tons. This is due to the interruption during the first nine months. Their facilities for shipment are extensive, the vessels being instead of the small brigs and used in the Coos Bay trade. This company is located at Harrison street, where they are FAMILY READING. An American male parent, unto his babes said he; Some hither, pretty little ones, and sit on either knee, and tell me what you've lately heard your mother read, and me? This fatherly assurance, and fond parental way, wanted to discover what the innocents would say about a Missionary-book they'd heard the other day. All of glee spake young Alonzo, all legs and curly hair: You yead about the man they hung, and all the people there; Mamma vead the funny part, of how it made him swear." Being quickly in, cried Winnie—all waist and dimpled neck: Wasn't half so funny, though, as that about the check My caught somebody forging, 'cause he was so green I 'speck." At the thing I liked the bestest," Alonzo piped amain, as how somebody yunned away, and won't come back again, On hand a large supply of coal. R. B. Cornwall is president of this company as well as its general agent. The average receipts from these mines are over 2,600 tons a month. The present cargo price is $1050. The Monte Diablo mines were first discovered in the year 1859, but for a long time the coal was described as worse than useless. All the steamboat engineers inveighed against it for clogging their furnaces with "clinker," while the housemaids condemned it for its decidedly sulphurous smell. But it could not long remain out of use at $7 a ton, while Eastern goals were bringing from $18 to $23. At last the steamboats Chrysopolis, New World, and Yosemite remodeled their furnaces especially for its use, and it got into general use on the rivers. The steamships of Holladay's line to Mexico and Oregon next took it up, and now it is the great steam generator of the coast, though by no means the best in quality. The principal mines in the Monte Diablo region are the Cumberland and Black Diamond, owned by the Bank of California, and the Union, owned by S. B. Whipple & Co. On Vancouver's Island, in the British possessions, is the best grade of coal found, the mine being located at the village of Nanaimo, about sixty miles north-east of Mamma vead the funny part, of how it made him swear."

When you wasn't listening "Lonzo," came swift from Minnie, small, Then papa read about the girl that took her only shawl, Wrap a baby in it, and left it in a hall."

Our Coal Fields. The rapid increase of fire-wood in the James and San Joquin valleys, as was on the slopes about the bay of San Francisco, has caused a growing trade in commodity of coal. We well remember when there was less than half a dozen yards in the city; when anthracite sold for $45 a ton.; when "corners" put up in that essential generator of oil by C.K. Garrison and others, who fortunes out of their speculation in single day. Now the supply of coal in market is so varied and extensive that mining like speculation seems impossible. The first production of coal on this coast in 1852 at Newport, Coos Bay. The wars of the mine at one time owned and the old propellor Hartford, between place and this city; but as the steam-bold burn a good deal of coal and carry little of it, the venture was for a abandoned as unprofitable. Since the work has been resumed and the brought either by sailing vessels Eastport mines on the same bay, were much later, the capital being furled by Flanagan, Oliver, Mann, and this company now own a fine low rate ocean steamer, making semi-regular trips to their mine, and are paywidows of five per cent. per month to general use on the rivers. The steamships of Holladay's line to Mexico and Oregon next took it up, and now it lay the great steam generator of the coast, though by no means the best in quality. The principal mines in the Monte Diablo region are the Cumberland and Black Diamond, owned by the Bank of California, and the Union, owned by S.B. Whipple & Co. On Vancouver's Island, in the British possessions, is the best grade of coal found, the mine being located at the village of Nanaimo, about sixty miles north-east of Victoria. The coal found in this mine is preferred for steam purposes to all others found on this coast, for the reason that it makes no clinker, has but little sulphur, and does not burn too rapidly, like the Seattle coal, of which we shall speak hereafter. The only objection that we know to it, is that the scotch in damp weather becomes a sort of pitch which sticks with great tenacity upon the paint-work where it falls, and can only be removed with potash, which generally carries off paint and all. This mine is owned in Victoria and its agent in this city is Harbor Commissioner John Rosenfeld. The mines on Lake Washington, near Seattle, King County, Washington Territory, have been worked nearly four years, and will eventually become good property, as the quality of coal produced is excellent save for steam. The objection against it is that it burns too freely and makes too hot a fire. The engineer of one of our government steamers was obliged to use it last year and, being ignorant of its rapid kindling, put in such great quantities that it melted the grate-bars of his furnaces. The steamer went down the Sound with a red-hot smoke-stack. But for household purposes this coal stands at the head, as it is free from sulphurous smell and answers for all culinary uses. It now brings $11 per ton, while Nanaimo co is worth $12, and Coos Bay $11: But the Seattle mines are very expensive to work, as they have a lake to cross with their cars on ferry-boats before they can put the cars on the railroad track. Coal has been discovered near Point Elliot, eighteen miles north of Seattle, and the newly-found deposit is said to be fully equal to that of the Lake Washington mine. Going further north, we find a discovery of anthracite coal, on Queen Charlotte's Island, but the lead was too narrow to pay expenses As for Alaska it is almost a solid bed of coal, and will one day become the Pennsylvania of the Pacific. As for Washington Territory, it is almost certain that she has a continuous bed-of-coal seventy-five miles long, commencing on the Skoohumchuck and ending near Seattle. From present prospects, there is no danger of coal mines proving a bad investment if so located as to be practically worked because our forests are being thinned out The old propellor Hartford, between place and this city; but as the steam-burn burn a good deal of coal and carry little of it, the venture was for a abandoned as unprofitable. Since the work has been resumed and the brought either by sailing vessels or Westport mines on the same bay, were much later, the capital being furled by Flanagan, Oliver, Mann, and this company now own a fine low rate ocean steamer, making semi-trips to their mine, and are paydividends of five per cent per month their capital stock. This is far better almost of the stocks on the Comstock. We learn that, though the East-Maine is already worked below the river, yet the water in the mine is of depth as to entail no great exodus pumping, is is the case in other mines. In some of the mines Monte Diablo, the shafts fill up so that the proportion of water removed out of coal is nearly two tons to one of course, cuts off a great share of some idea of the Coos Bay coal may be formed from the fact that the distances of brigs and schooners from that coast summer, averaged forty per mile. These vessels always carry luminescent deck-load and coal in their holds; and the shipments of coal are not so active as one would at first imagine the number of vessels. Still the incidents from Coos Bay can not fall short of 22,000 tons per year. Mines at Bellingham Bay were laid in 1857, just before the outbreak of Laser River hegira. These mines are near Sehome, and belong to the State of California. The yield of "black bonds" in 1872 amounted to only 20,284 tons in 1871. Falls due to the interruption of working the first nine months of 1872. Facilities for shipment are very extensive, the vessels being large ships used of the small brigs and schooners on the Coos Bay trade. The yard of company is located at the foot of Monroe street, where they always have going further north. Irrigation. The appointment of the Government commission to survey the valleys of California and report to the President a plan for a system of canals for irrigation and transportation, has made the subject a leading topic of interest with those who are directly involved. The Stockton Independent makes the plausible suggestion that "the whole subject should be regulated in a manner similar to that which has been adopted for the reclamation of large tracts of swamp land." The State (it thinks) should be divided into irrigation districts, each one to include all the land to be benefited by the construction of each canal and its lateral branches. Bonds could be issued to be secured upon the canals and the lands, the proceeds of which would construct the works. Readers of the Record will remember that this paper brought forward this plan several months ago, when the matter first become prominent, and advocated it rather strenuously. It is feasible and will work successfully—Sacramento Record.
