TC0.1L I COAL!! COAL!!!
HE SUBSCRIBERS have now on hand, and will
continue to receivc, a superior article of ANTHRA
CITE COAL from John L. Butler & Co. This coal
is mined near Wilkesbarre, Pennsylvania, and is
known in this city as the celebrated Butler Coal,
which has been highly recommended by all who have
used it, as will he seen by the highly respectable cer
tificates annexed :
I used coal lut>t winter, which I purchased of Meiers.
John Pettibone &. Co., and it gave entile satisfaction.
YV. VV. S EATON.
Patent Office, May 31, 1844.
Gentlemen : The Coal that you furnished for the Patent
Office during this last spring provod very excellent; and
I used the same kind which was delivered at my house.
It proved in both cases highly satisfactory.
H. L. ELLSWORTH.
Messrs. J. Pettibone & Co., Washington.
Office Secretary Senate, Juno 1,184*.
Messrs Pcttiboue & Co. furnished a small quantu.^ oi
Coal for the furnaces of the north portion of the Capitol,
and it w as reported to be of a good quality. They also
furnished at a reasonable price for my own private use,
during the last winter, several tons of tho same kind of
Coal, and 1 was entirely satisfied with it, finding but little
dust from its use, and but little else remainingtnan ashes,
there being scarcely any clinker left. W. HICKEY.
Washington, June25th, 1844.
Gentlemen : Having used your Coal, I can cheerfully
recommend it as being of superior quality for easy ignition
and culinary purposes. Respectfully,
J. Pettibone & Co. WM SKIRV1NG
May 31, 1844.
I purchased Butler Coal from John Pettibone & Co. last
fall and found it a very suporior article.
W. LENOX.
May 25, 1844.
I purchased last year, from Messrs. John Pettibone
Co., what he called the Butler Coal. I never used a
finer arlicle of fuel. When I can find the Butler Coal, 1
shall not inquire for any other kind, for I am persuaded
there is none better. JAMES HOBaN.
Daavili.e, Penn. August 2, 1843.
I have bought of Messrs. Butler & Co some hundred
tons of their Anthracite Coal, and sold lo persons for dif
ferent uses, and used considerable of it myself. For
burning in stoves and grates, I do pronounce it as good
Coal as I ever have made use of; and every person to
whom I have sold the Coal say they have never used
anything they liked better. JOHN C. GRIER.
We can produco many other certificates in accord
ance with the above. J. PETTIBONE &. Co.
N. B. Peraons who want their Coal low, will
please send in their orders immediately, as it will ad
vance in price, owing to the great demand for manu
facturing purposes. We can furnish at short notice
any quantity of Hickory, Oak, and Pine Wood, at a
