A few bales of "Bituminated eat,'-the COM
position recently invented in New York, formed
of refuse anthracite coal screenings, tar, &c.,
were put on board the Great Western on her last
trip from New York, in order to test the merits
ascribed to this species of fuel. The engineer,
who is said to be a man of scientific attainments,
addressed letter to the inventors on the return of
the ship in which he states that the result Of the
trial has satisfied him that one hundred pounds of
peat are equal to three hundred pounds Of coal,
and that in cases where there is difficulty in
generating or keeping up good head Of steam,
this fuel is indispensable. The Directors Of the
Great Western ordered the purchase Of two hun
dred barrels for the use of that ship, which were
put on board previous to her sailing few days
ago.--Madisonian.
