The furnace was built and properly im- proved by Mr. Alexander, twenty years ago, at great cost, and has been a serious injury to the region, as the enterprise was an utter failure.

Having made one attempt and failed, the next step should have been to coke OF WESTERN KENTUCKY. 11 the coal, and mix some better ore with his black band ; but the furnace was blown in three times on raw coal and black band ore, and, after a total run of six weeks (in all, three cam- paigns), the proprietor closed the works. The iron made was silver-gray, with from 5 to 10 per cent, silicon, and about 0. 40 per cent, phosphorus.
