, 3 A "Visit to lltehcoal Mine.‘ _
i«F-riend B. }-—-Did_ you ever see a.‘ coal fftlne?
1-‘had rather see a coal mine than to see the
‘liEl_iSjihant." I was recently tall? 3118‘? .3 "um"
bier-"of persons were digging 555'" 0031 in "19
south vvestsmpart of this town. heal‘ G6°"g€*
tow"n.snd being (as you know) fond of adven-
tures. I concluded to visit the mine. Iliad read
of some wonderful mines in different parts of the
world, where people lived many years in them,
and where visitors were let down Into the
bowels of the earth many hundred feet, and
-othargxriliflg stories--about _them, and I deter-
mined to visit this one, regardless of all danger.
"As my stay in the town was limited to a few
days, I lost not a moment in making the neces-
snry preparations -to see the mine, and if the
danger was not too great, to descend into it, and
fully explore it.
_ In company with a friend of tried and un-
daunted courage. I went to the place a few days
since. It was a beautiful morning—all was
calm and serene—uot a. leaf was stirring-not
a cloud to be seen to obscure the sky, and all
nature appeared happy and cheerful. The
glorious oriental orb "of day had just made his
appearance, and‘ when I looked about me and
compared the beauty of the scene with what I
had read of the dreariness of mines, I confess
I shuddered at the sight, but curiosity prompted A
me and natural impulse hurried me on.
After clambering down among rocks and trees’
{during which my companion showed, the most_
determined resolution and daring bravery, we
at length surmounted all dilficultics, and arriv-
lng lit the base ofa precipice, we saw the‘ mine ,
and made preparations to enter it. The drum-‘!
tning -ofa wood-pecker on a dry limb, and the
were all that
was heard to disturb the extreme quietude of
the place. The mine is larger than our well,
dug horizontally into a steep hill, but how far
I am‘ unable to say, for having no lights and
other necessary articles, we did not explore it
to its full extent.
Should I ever visit the place again. I will
endeavor togo fully prepared to give you a
minute description of it. As it is, I can only
say as the Irishman did, when he got up in the
night to see about the weather, but instead of
looking out. he opened the wrong door and
looked in tea dairy room. “ Och!" says Pat,
"'it;.,is very dark out to night, and Smells of:
cheese.” This mine looks very dark in, and,
smells like sulphur.
As Iam unable to tell you from personal
observation, I shall have to tell you what
“they say’’ about it. “ They say” that the
miners have dug until they have tound some-
thing black, which you know is the» color of
coal. What kind of coal they are digging for,
I do not know, butil believe it is not charcoal.
If coal could be found there, it would add
occasional screaming of a blue-jay,
I
greatly to the value of property in this part of i
the world, and should it be extensive enough,
‘would give employment to vast numbers of men.

There is a small stream close to the entrance
of the mine, which if the rocks could be dug out,
and a sufficient quantity of water found-, would f
be navigable for small craft to its junction with
the Norwalk river, which, if a bill should pass
Congress to make it navagable, and it could be
made so, would bring the coal directly to your;
l
Village. \Vhen? the Danbury and Norwalk
railroad is built, it will add greatly to the facili-
