Although the scarand high price of coal in England is having a most depressing effect upon many important branches of industry, the socalled " famine" is not .without good results in directing attention to the necessity for cheaper methods of mining and greater economy in the consumption of coal. Much interest is now felt in the invention of coal cutting machinery to supersede hand labor in the mines, and the offer of liberal bounties for the best machine for this purpose has so stimulated inventive talent that several of great practical value have already been put to work. Oae of them, it is said, will do the work of from twenty to thirty Economy in Mining city skilled miners, at a great saving of coal, twenty-five per cent, of which at least is wasted when blasted out. this character in general use, much of the With machinery of now employed labor mines can be dispensed with, the troubles from strikes will be diminished, and the production of coal largely increased with an actual saving in working expens".

Hence an economy, however smalt, in the working of our mines, will directly benefit all branches of manufacture by ultimately securing cheaper and more abundant coal, and while we are not driven to it by a necessity similar to that which com pels our British neighbors, our mine owners will not long neglect to avail themselves of the best results reached by the experiments now in progress in the English, Scotch and Welsh mines. Another important result of the " famine" is that it has iaught the necessity for greater economy in the consumption of fuel and much attention is now devoted to the improvement of furnaces, with a view to securing more perfect combustion, and obtaining from a given amount of coal, a greater amount of heat or power than is possible by any system which permits a considera ble portion of unconsumed carbon to escape. Experimental teats have shown that a pound of coal, entirely consumed, can be made &c., much water as is evaporated in ordinary steam boilers to the pound of fuel consumed in the furnaces beneath them, and to attain these experimental results in actual practice is, at present, the object of much careful research A new stimulus has also been given to the efTorts always making to economise fuel employed for domestic purposes by the improveto evaporate nearly twice as ment of cooking and heating apparatus. There is also great room for improvement in this respect in this country. We thus see that the " coal famine" in Great Britain is not without good 241 CotcBt flloiictarn anb dommtrcial Nema.

London prices remain nearly unchanged. During the early part of the week, and before the decline in gold took place, some of the German bankers were purchasing freely, and had difficulty in obtaining round lots of the popular bonds, such as five-twenties of 180?. At the Treasury purchase on Wednesday offerings amounted to $3,236,6.50, but only $34,300 were taken below par in gold.

Each of these systems embraces in its conso.idated Puraiiinfjf number of roads whose mortgage bonds are still known under the name of the company originally issuing them thus the Great Western Railroad Company ol Illinois, or the Galena & Chicago Union Railroad Company have had no lejral existence for some years, the first being now a part of the Toledo Wabash & Western, and the ]atl;er a part of the lines, or branches, a large ; Chicago & Northwestern, but the bonds of each will probably be known on the Stock Board List tiil the date of their maturity.

The Chicago RalIroad».-The Railroad Gazette has the following article under the almve title: "All the Cliicago rail roads having issued reports since the beginning of the year, covering from five to twelve months of the year 1870, including the period a/Tecttd by the Chicago fire, we may find it profitable to compare their operations, and ascertain the work of the lines as a whole— something we are not likely to consider when we deal with each separately. This study will perhaps be more valuable to Cliicago and its merchants than to the railroad men, but is worth the attention of the latter, as bv it they may obtain a broader view of the general field in which they work than otherwise. In what tvo have to say, we consider only the lines from Chicago northward, westward and southward, excluding the lines to the east, which have a different office to perform and form a system by themselves. Wo therefore present side by side the results of the operations of Illinois Central, the Chicago & Alton, the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy, the Chicago, Rock Island & Pacific, and the Chicago & Northwestern roads, which are the only lines which bring considerable quantities of agricultural produce to the citv, and carry lumber and merchandise from it. The Chicago, Danville & Vincennes properly belongs to this system but as it has been open but a few months and Imf but lately and especially as ii has no fairly made itself known as a carrier previous year to compare with it should not come into the comparison. The routes named bring to Chicago nearly all the grain and stock that finds a market in that city, with the exception of some millions of bushels, chiefly of corn, which arrive by canal. In the first place, let us know the extent of the systems whose operations we chronicle. The aggregate length of the five roads —or system of roads, rather— was 4,397 miles in 1871-73, and 3.972 miles in 1870-71; the increase being 335 miles, or 8 percent.

If we count a passenger as equivalent to a ton of freight, as is customary, we have an increase of 7 per cent very nearly equal to the increase in mileage, which is exceedingly favorable, considering that the new lines naturally have less favorable locations (the best having been taken first), and can have only begun to develop a traffic. The chanijes in passengers carried are not very great on any line, the Illinois Central losing about one-sixteenth and the Chicago, Bur)ington & Qnincy gaining about one-twentieth.

' Weather Reports by Telegraph.— There is increased complaint in our telegrams to-night ot the prevalence of rust and the shedding of bolls, while the reports of the presence of and injury done by the army worm in Alabama are more emphatic. On the other hand, they have had rain in Texas, whici), it it has been exieniive enough, may help to improve the prospects in that Stale, which had begun to be less favorable on account of the drought. Our Ualveston correspondent states that it has rained on t" o days there picking is progressing finely, and the planters are marketting their cotton freely. There was an error last week in our statement ot the weather at New Orleans. As the telegram reached us, it said that there had been rain on every day but one.

At Memphis it has been warm and dry all the week they are needing rain now ; the plant is stated to bo shedding, and the reports ot the condition of the plant are less favorable. FroLi Nashville our correspondents telegraph that the crop is developiiig very promisingly that i' looks better than it has for several years; the Krst bale of new cotton at Naphv.Uo was received yesterday by McAlistcr & Wheeless, ot that place, and told to the Tennessee Manutacturing Company at 27ic.

There has been a great pressure to sell the new flour arriving, and in old flour much irregularity has prevailed. The decline, however, has been more in sympathy with wheat than from any other cause, and as compared with last Friday prices are 50@75c per bbl lower. Some favorite brands from old wheat are, however, not offered at the reduction, in the belief that the limited supply now on hand will all be wanted at high prices for mixing with the new stock. Hence much of the irregularity which buyers encounter on atiempting to operate. Today the market was only moderately active, bat prices ruled about steady. Wheat took a sharp turn downward, selling pretty freely on Tuesday and Wednesday at $1 47@1 50 for No. 3 Spring and new red Winter yesterday, however, the market was firmer, especially for sound old Spring, with a good demand both for ; export and milling at $1 50 for No. 3 Chicago.

Fridat. p. M.. Aug. 23. 187J There has been a moderate increase in the business from first handu durini; the past week, but trade has undoubtedly been restricted by tlie excessive heat, which not only prevents buyers who are here from canvassing the market freely, but also has the e§ect of keepinjr back dealers in the interior who see little in the present temperature of the atmosphere to warrant them in laying in stocks tor the tall distribution. The larger houses in the interior are purchasing with some freedom, and some ot our local jobbers though are laying in their supplies for the Fall trade, While as yet they find but a limited outlet for goods. is no apparent indication of a poor season's business, there every reason for believing that the trade will be of a hand-tomouth nature, and that the purchases of retails will drag throughout the season. This is usually the case when a season opens late, and there is certainly every indication that the opening of the coming Autumn trade will be unusually late. The finances of the trade are in a healthy condition, and should the agricultural products be as successfully marketed as is now promised by every apparent indication, the aggregate business of there is the season will be fully up to the average.

Jobbers who are in a position to make concessions do so lor the purpose of stimulating trade. Standard brown sheetings are fairly steady in first hands, and continue to be quoted at former rates.

Printing cloths are strong and unchanged, with a fair demand from printers. Prints are selling liberally at lljc. for standard dark fancies, and the market shows a good degree of firmness at this quotation. Other cottons are in moderate demand at unchanged prices. Domestic Woolen Goods. The demand for woolens has been light during the past week, and prices have to be sustained by holders in the face of a dull and depressing general tone. There is some inquiry for fine fancy cassimeres, with~sale8 making at fair prices, but in the medium and lower grades the absence of a general demand has left the market somewhat unsettled, and while holders quote about former figures, prices are to a great extent nominal. Faced goods and coatings ara selling fairly, with a good degree of firmness prevailing, and the market wholly unchanged. Flannels have sold fairly since our last, but are droop, ing, and the transactions are at prices below the range of a month ago. Domestic shawls have sold well, and are fully sustained. Foreign Goods. The market was quiet during the first part of the weet, but later there has been rather more inquiry, and PACIFIC Uainlltoii li}< 19 .Japanese Strijies do blue ..
