But , lies the question of beneath the comparative economy of carrying ifie fuel required fur their reduction to thqI ores, or carrying theores to the fuel. JSu ur, as to the tael m question, whether it be soft or hard coal, or charcoal, iirnt all events always much less than tLe weight of the ores it will reduce', it will invariably occur to men but s.ur(ercially acquainted with the business, that it is cheaper to take the fuel to the ore's than to take the ores to the fuel. But look- ing at the business closely, as it is ami has been from time immemorial, we find tb it the converse obtains in piaetice. of any There arc no this,-even- -- - 1 ( celebrity in th; world which have not been established, and are not maintained, eu the principle of carrying the ores to the fuel. Or rather, perhaps, we should aaVof compromising the matter, tha- - is selecting a point fur the site of smelting works where the fuel and the ores may the' economical! v he brought to- gether. The works at Swansea, at New ark, and at San Francisco were established, and are maintained, on this principle. They are all on the seaboard, where both the fuels and ores of the world can "Tnost easily and cheaply find access to them. ,,The same principle mu-- hold in the case of inland redwing works as regards Aiach other. They can not compete, as j.s. rule, with seaboard establishments as mmrkets for the worlds ores, but they aua-- for those of a section or division of rAOOirlineut. The ores of the continent are 4fIvuruTB .largely reduced, at Frei- Vberg, In .that mountainoui region and Germany, which is full of fuel.

But it can be at ten to twenty yjents a bushel r cheaper than it can bo at auy of the mining districts outside of, and south of, SaltjLake City, the, nearest of them being 2d to 20- miles distant, over hard roads.

If a railroad shall he "built from Salt Lake City to Ophir, it must connect at Luke Point with the navigation of the Lake., and so things be evened up again. If such a road would enable Salt Lake City to tap the Oquirrh mines, it would equally enable us to tap the Wasatch mines. It is miles from Lake twenty to twenty-fivPoiht to Salt Lake City, aud we doubt notores can be transported from.
