DISCOVERY or InoN OHK.—We are glad to hear that the Coal Work Company, new carrying on their judicious ami spirited operations upon the TalacVc estate, in Flintshire, have discovered a rich b'rtdy of Iron Ore, presenting appearances that encourage them to believe it may be worked in an open cast. The circumstance promises 10 conler on the neighbouihood of Tal- acre, advantages similar to lliose of Ihe cclcbralrd coal and iion districts of Dudley, Wednesbury, and Bilston. The company is making arrangements for forming a rail rcSd Vo a harbour on the Dee, about half a mile to the tis", of the Point of Air, a! Sir Edward Mostyn's txvense. The line was last week sur- veyed by an ciViirtent civil engineer. It is supposed that this i discovery will in conjunction with the surrounding coal mines, yield to the generous proprietor of Talacre no less a royalty than from ten to fifteen thousand pound a year.— Carnarvon Hen'ld'¡
