--Two hundred thousand cords of pine wood are annually brought to the New York market, of which 50,000 cords are used by kindling wood companies. In the transportation of this material about 100 schooners are employed. Of this enormous amount of pine wood Virginia furnishes seven-eighths, and New Jersey the remainder.
