THE PYRITES DEPOSITS OF LOUISA COUNTY, VA. 535 Especially is this the case at Newport News, where 20 to 40 feet ofwater are ohtainable, and berths for six vessels at a time, at the coal-wharves alone. The situation of this port on Hampton Roads, aland-lockeil harbor for the vessels of the world, with no ice or dan-gerous channels, permits freight to be secured at all seasons forcoast ^wrts, with but one handling from the mines. Owing to thisvery favorable location in proximity to cities of export for cottonand grain (the new elevator at Newport News stores 1,600,000bushels of grain, and loads a vessel up to 100,000 bushels, inside ofeight hours), it becomes possible for the Louisa mines not only tosupply the trade at home, but to export the pyrites. Liverpotd is distant from Newport News 3100 miles. Glasgowis distant from Newport News 3500 miles. Havre or Bremen isdistant from Newport News 3400 miles. As ballast in cotton ships, ores can be shipped half the year for2^. to 3.S. sterlin
