GEO. E. SELLERS, ESQ. DEAR SIR: Since I submitted my report on the mineral lands of the Saline Coal Company, I have had occasion to visit some of the most extensive coal and iron districts of the Alleghany region of Pennsylvania, and am more fully impressed than ever with the great value of the Saline property. Indeed the amount of coal on that property, in a given space, accessible above the water courses, is greater than I have seen in any part of these districts of Pennsyl- vania. Yet I am c...onvinced there is more iron on your property than there is coal to work it up into wrought iron. Taking the total amount of iron ore on the property, I consider there is a larger supply than the very heavy deposits which supply the extensive furnaces of the Great Western Iron Works, and by a union of your carbonates of the coal measures with your hematitic ores of the Martha ore banks, you will undoubtedly be able to produce nearly one-half as much more iron in the same time as can be turned out at the Great Western, with no more blast furnaces and the same number of hands.
