A wagon road is being constructed thenco to tho mine, it, or der to supply tho demand. At tho depth of sixty-fivo feet tho scan, is about five feet thick, and tho quality of the coal better than nt tho surface. Good coal has been found near the Premier Mills, on Hear creek, n tribu tary of tho Ynquina river, in llenton county, about thirty miles from Cor vallls. Fivo separato seams of coal have been found in this locality, vary ing from nix inches to four feet in thickness. The most valuable scam is within fivo miles of Yaqtiina Hay. This is nbout four thick, and nearly horizontal in position. It has becu prospected over .1 considerable extent of the adjoining county. It Is estimat ed that coal In this vicinity can bo de livered nt frl 00 per ton, owing to nat ural facilities for working and trans portation. Most of tho mines aro not more than fivo miles from navigable waters, and that distauco over an al most level plain. A railroad could bo cheaply constructed to tho placo of debarcatiou. Towards tho closo of 1800 n scam of coal was discovered 01, tho bank of Til lamook Day, lifly miles south of Asto ria and sixty miles northwest from Sa lem. There is another coal scam of n sim ilar character on tho shore of Ncha lem, nbout twenty-fivo miles further up tho river. Extensive beds of coal aro in prog ress ol exploration' nbout three miles from Farewell Itcnd, ou tho Snnko river. A tunnel has been run on n vertical seam about threo hundred feet, wnoro a uumlicr ot smaller seaum tun' tied and form n body of coal about leu feet thick. Tho mouth of tho tun nel is closo to tho bank of tho river. Another seam ol coal discovered, twA hundred feet nbovo tho original discov ery, is said to contain good coal, and lo bo five feet thick. Coal has been found in tho Calapoo ia mountains, within n few miles of Ilarrv's survey for a railroad from tho Columbia river to California. This discovery is considered of importance lu that part of Oregon. There is a coal field on both sides of Coqiilllo river, in Coos county. Tho Coos Hay mines aro in llio northern edgo of this Held, which extends Into Curry county. Tlio seam, of which there aro three, aro thicker and tho coal of a better quality 011 tho Co qiilllo river thai, nt Cooh Ray. Tho two larger seams of coal iinito on tho river and form a body of coal nearly thirteen feet thick. There Is another field between tho South and Mlddlo forks of tho Coquille, which is 1,000 feet higher in tho mountains thai, tho last mentioned. It has Iscon traced for twenty-two miles In length by eight 111 width. Ono scam Is ten feet thick. Tho Coos Ray deposit extends about twenty-five, miles north nml south, nml twenty miles cast and west; it is most vnluablo on' tho south, but is only worked on tho north. coos nAY co a 1. What is known ns Coos Ray coal bears a good reputation in California. It is found in a number of scams which crop out on tho surfaco of tho rldgo that divides Coos Ray on tho south from tho Coqiilllo rivor. Tho locality of tho best inino will bo understood from a brief description of tho bay ; CoosJJavis nbout fourteen miles in lei)"th, varying from ono and n half to two and a hair miles wine. 1 no mam part of it has a direction northeast by bouthwest. At tho upper end thoro Is a bharp bond to tho north. Tho Coos river rises somo thirty miles inland, and enters the upper end of tho bend. Four miles from tho mouth, in a dense ly timbered and hilly country, is Marsh field, tho centre of tho coal mining. Tho facilities for working tho mines uro crude. If tho arrangements woro more complete tho biipply of coal could ho increased. Tliero is a good enter enco to tho bay, Tlio bar at its mouth has fourteen feet of water at high tide, and thoro is a govommout llght-houso pouvFpJciit. I1'"" piles from the pn- tcrenco ol tho bay, on tho soutli shore, is Empire City, yie scat of Coos coun ty -a thriving place. Tho supply of Coob Ray coal nt San Francisco has increased during tho past threo years, as the following ta bid will show. Tlio consumption has increased in Oregon to an equal ex tent: 1800, 600 tons; 1800, 2,1 20 tons; 1807, (first six months)'. 2",520 tons." UMKSTOSK ASH MAItlU.l!. In describing limestone nml marble, ho says "Tho limestono formation ex tending from Siskiyou to Los Angc los in California, docs not appear to oxtend into Oregon." This Is a great mistake. Good limestone is found in various parts of Jackson and Josephluo counties. Thoro is also several excel lent marble veins lu both counties; and thcro is a mnrblo factory it, siicecs ful operation nt Ashland, it, Jackson county, which is supplied with an ex cellent quality of durable whito mar ble. Thcro is also variegated mnrblo found lu various places in theso coun ties; but in tho northern part of tho Stato but littlo limestone has been found, nml no marble vein has been worked. ItAll.ltOAl) niAHTKIM Will bo fow nml far between this ses sion of Congress. On the 1.1th, Mr. FlanderV bill for n railroad charter from Vancouver to lhigct Sound was reported to tho Houso by tho Commit too on Railroads, ami its passage was unanimously recommended by the Committee. Tho charter only nsked for a grant of land. Mr. Flanders made a good speech in its behalf ; but after a short discussion, it was referred to tho Commltteo on Publlo Lands. As it did not ask for subsidies, and only lor a grant of land, it should havo been referred to this commltteo in tho first instance. It will sleep in .... cuiuiiiiiuu 111 1,11 pnnmlillliy until nfter tho commencement ol the next session of Congress; then it will prob ably pass. General Sherman testified before the Committee 011 Railroads a few days ago, that in all the interior Territories wherever the United Stales troops had to bo supplied to keep the Indian it, subjection, tho Government could pay two-third of tho cost of building tho roads, and it would bo 11 money-saving investment. Thoro nro plenty ol wild mid hostilu Indians ou tho proposed railroad route between Jacksonville and Humboldt. Tho Government freight, alone, at tho cost of teams nml pack mules, would moro than pay twice the interest on tho bonds which would take to build tho road, Mr. Mallory's bill, chartering a com pany to construct fliis road from Port land, has been under consideration in tho Commltteo nt, Itailroads several times, nml it has been amended to suit hiu returns, nml tho ideas of n largo maiority of tho Commltteo; but owing to tho unsettled condition of tho South, and tho finances, it will probably not bo reported to tho Houso before tho commencement of tho next session of tho present Congress, If tho Commit too was to report it tho Houso would not act 01, it until after tho settlement of tho all-absorbing questions of im peachment and reconstruction. If ev erything iiiovca un pionpciuualy, ov. ccpt Impeachment, next session of Congress may bo Induced to grant this charter. If it should pass, thoro will be no conflict with it, and cither of the Oregon Central Railroads boyoud Cor vallls or Eugeno City. They will all bo consolidated, nud one road will bo constructed from tho Willumtltu to tho cast side of Klamath River. From this point, ono can bo constructed to Saorainento and tho other to Huuiboldt; and both will bo a paying investment. Without Government nld orun amend ment of tho Oregon constitution, tho road will not reach Jacksonville in twenty years. Wo hayo been twenty years getting a common wg roml. It will probably tako twice as Jong to get a good common railroad, unless wo can induce Congress to givo us sub stantial aid in tho shnp'Of subsidies. The land grant will not moro than pay tho Interest on tho bonds. Tho com mittees are now anxious to induce emi. gratian f'0lu Europo to scttlo up tho cduntry, and tho Commltteo on Publio Lauds will oppose any charter that does not limit tho price of tho lands donated to 12 00. However, In tho end; this will bo no disadvantage to tho rallroaeT, becauso tho thicker tho country is set tled tho moro freight and tho moro travel ot, tho railroads. Tlio great masses of tho peoplo want a railroad, and it makes no dlffcrenco with thorn whether It Is tho East or West side of tho Willamette. Holh shies need a road, and both sides in time will io able to construct a road,. There Is no. good senso lu their quarrel ling nbout their name. Neither havo compiled with tho terms of tho net ( Congress granting tho land. Neither of them expect to comply with tho act ol Congress, Tho act ot Congress granting the land, requires then, to complete twenty miles of tho road within two years from the act. Neither company can complete two miles, much less twenty. Their only hope Is to get Congress to extend tho time. Congress don't care n cent nbout tho East or Weslsldool tho Willlametto. All it wants is ono good railroad. Tioy don't caro who organized, or who bragn tho most ; tho company that docs tho work regardless of its iinnic, will gel tho grant to tho laud, and perhaps subiidics ot $10,000 per mile, with n second mort gage to secure its payment, like tho Central Pacific Kallioad. Thit Is equivalent of giving the credit of tho Government of $02,000 per mile, w hlch ought to build the toad from ono end of tho Willamette lo the other. Fitch in, gentlemen. I havo no interest tu nny road nor any clique, but I want good roads ami a plenty of them. I desire to see roads ou both sides of tho Willamette, nml 0110 lu Noitlicru Ore gnu, nml another In Houtfirru.Oregoii, from 0110 end of the Statu to tho other. Ere long we will have them. Energy and industry can accomplish wonders.
