A company should bo at onco formed to mine for coal. A shaft should bo sunk at, or near the city. Tho railroad will soon be here. Our surface coal will not keep up the demand. We must go down to tho strata below, all of which can be worked through tho same shaft.

As a first experiment the fonr feet strata might bo worked, two of which lie above the. thickest vein often foot, which is about three hundred feet below the surface. No doubt, this deeper stratum can be worked at a better profit than the thinner strata. If there is no one individual to undertako this company should be formed. We know of no business of greater promise than this.

This improvement will allow the citizens of our county on our north and west access to tho city. Thousands of dollars havo been lost to our merchants and others during the past, because people could not reach us from the west and north without passing over a road, or rather no road, almost impassable to an empty wagon, and strangers visiting our city go away disgustod in consequonco of having to approach us through thoso bottomloss bottoms. A macadamized road will add thousands of dollars to tho wealth of our peoplo yearly, and bo a saving and convenience to the country people, worth thousands more.

Bought 1,000 roots, and put them in the ground in a very careless way "in tho spring of 1867.

Have since then kept the weeds down, as an Editor naturally would. This spring, by fair promises to our best friend. C. F. Drake, wo got possession of Bunio wire, upuu wmcn wo iriuneu our vines, and tho grapes grew, never asking the quostioa whether the wire was paid for or not, but they are very fearful that something is wrong, and have turned black in the face, notwithstanding they are received into tho best families in Fort Scott, and a few stems, by the politeness of Mr.
