  • ANTHRACITE Downloaded from COAL CANALS and the ROOTS of AMERICAN FOSSIL FUEL DEPENDENCE, 1820–1860 Envhis.Oxfordjournals.Org
    CHRISTOPHER F. JONES a landscape of energy abundance: ANTHRACITE Downloaded from COAL CANALS AND THE ROOTS OF AMERICAN FOSSIL FUEL DEPENDENCE, 1820–1860 envhis.oxfordjournals.org ABSTRACT Between 1820 and 1860, the construction of a network of coal-carrying canals transformed the society, economy, and environment of the eastern mid- Atlantic. Artificial waterways created a new built environment for the region, an energy landscape in which anthracite coal could be transported cheaply, reliably, at Harvard University Library on October 26, 2010 and in ever-increasing quantities. Flush with fossil fuel energy for the first time, mid-Atlantic residents experimented with new uses of coal in homes, iron forges, steam engines, and factories. Their efforts exceeded practically all expec- tations. Over the course of four decades, shipments of anthracite coal increased exponentially, helping turn a rural and commercial economy into an urban and industrial one. This article examines the development of coal canals in the ante- bellum period to provide new insights into how and why Americans came to adopt fossil fuels, when and where this happened, and the social consequences of these developments. IN THE FIRST DECADES of the nineteenth century, Philadelphians had little use for anthracite coal.1 It was expensive, difficult to light, and considered more trouble than it was worth. When William Turnbull sold a few tons of anthracite to the city’s waterworks in 1806, the coal was tossed into the streets to be used as gravel because it would not ignite.2 In 1820, the delivery © 2010 The Author.

  • James D. Harris, Principal Engineer, and James S. Stevenson, Canal Commissioner
    JAMES D. HARRIS, PRINCIPAL ENGINEER, AND JAMES S. STEVENSON, CANAL COMMISSIONER By HUBERTIS M. CUMMINGS T HE career of James Dunlop Harris in connection with the 1building of the Canals of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania was not initiated with peculiarly brilliant auspices. It was by Act of February 25, 1826, that the program for effectuation of the State's proposed system of Internal Improve- ments was officially endorsed. Seven weeks later, on April 6, a letter from Joseph McIlvaine, Secretary to the new Board of Canal Commissioners, went forward from Philadelphia, requesting that Mr. Harris "proceed forthwith to Pittsburgh, and take the place of assistant to Nathan S. Roberts."' For his service under that distinguished engineer, who himself had come into the employment of Pennsylvania after a career upon the Erie Canal in New York, he was to have three dollars a day and necessary expenses. 2 Three to four months later, the young surveyor from Bellefonte had run his levels between Pine Creek and the City of Pittsburgh, in conformity to the Board's instructions to his superior, and "con- tinued them over Grant's Hill to Suke's Run for the purposes of ascertaining the propriety of terminating the canal at the Monon- gahela in that direction."' This feat, reported on November 304 bv himself, was clarified by another report of the same date by Nathan S. Roberts. That second engineer recommended a route by the course which his assistant had located: for, "very expensive" and "longer" than other routes as it would be, it "would do less damage to individuals" 5 as it passed "around the southern suburbs,"6 ' Joseph McIlvaine to J.
