At present there are three great lines of conveyance for coal from the mines to Philadelphia :- 1. ThO Reading Railroad, including branches, 92 miles in length, having its tide water terminus at Richmond, which is a part of the city of Philadelphia. 2. Schuylkill Canal and branches, terminus at the Schuylkill wharves, Philadelphia. 3. The Lehigh Canal and Navigation (including a State canal), terminating at Bristol, 16 miles above Philadelphia, on the east bank of the Delaware. 2 to :3 feet per mile 3to 7 7 to 15 „ 15 to 19 28 }} 42.4- These besides ininoraWimiesoicoal conveyance. But before I . dwell upon the traffic and facilities of these communications, allow me to transcribe roughly a few notes made in the mining regions. The coal beds and veins are made in the "Sharp" or South Mountain, a range or spur of the Blue Ridge, e x t en di ng f rom east - to west about seventy miles, and varying in width frone six to twelve miles. It is singular that all the coil is found on the north side of the moun tains, while on the south side theme is nothing but mould' and red shale rock. An experienced miner informed me that in the very centre of the summit, and running along each range from west to east, a black line was discover able, always by a little digging, which was in fact nature's dividing line between the coal and the stony rock. The whole region is mountainous, intersected by romantic valleys and streams, while along the sides of the hills run rtfelremele, an,l still lower canals, some of which are from single where. The face or the country is exceedingly like the coals: el iron legion of the Forest of Dean, in Glouces tershire, exc e pt on l y t h at t h e hi lls are two or th ree ti mes higher . even th an th ose near S t. Br i ave l' s. Al ong th e entire range of mountain, the coal is found in seams and veins, dipping is various angles from the horizon, and no • where horizontal, as iu the coa l-ti e l,l s near B r i s t o ! ; b u t these seams and veins, the b es t w hi c h are a b out 60 f ee t wide, and 12 feet thick, converge towards a common heart or solid mass at the eastern end of the range, at and near a portion of the mountain called Mauch Chunk. Here, ex• cept.the outercoat of rock and earth, the masses of the hills are solid coal, so much so that a sli c e o f th e mountain is cut down, exposing the coal, whence it is actually quarried like stone,dnstead of being reached by shafts and subter ranean galleries, as at and near Pottsville. This Mauch Chunk coal is conveyed to Philadelphia by the Lehigh Canal and -,aviga.tion, and is reputed to be the ve r y b es t that reaches the market. I was particular in inquiring into the rate of wages, and earn that mere labourers are now getting from $l4 $ lel per day, whereas three y ears ago they only received from 87-2,:c. to $l. There is quite an out cry he New York and Philadelphia in relation to the pro mpt hi g h p r i c e of coal ($6l per ton of 2,000 lbs. in Phila delphia, and $74 in New York), but really, under such an advanced pressure of wages, to say nothing also of increased rates of freight, it is difficult to see how reduction can be effected. Many' fortunes have been lost in coal lands, and in the search for coal. I met with one gentleman who had spentd. IMMO in sinking shafts, and that, too, without vast ex pienn-si e n s! . 9. h a d sea o ra n l y w h lhil u e n. m n any after encountering ' all and comparatively thread like veins. But a r i c c Many of the small is a fortune. shafts are deep , a thou san d feet d while a few are horizontal tunnelsinto the b o d y of the mountains. while ins. In other mines there is a horizontal tunnel, perpen di cu l ar shaft. 0 41, and . than a . d . eep and nearly had hori zontal shaft, at the end of mountain I visited a ich was a deep perpendicu lar shaft of nearly 800 feet W dust. At this mine it would b ut be no coal except in smau seam, to sink a third shaft of t'linecessary, on hitting . a of the coal—that is, to follow thee same angle as the dip valuable in proportion as the coal l?ain. most above or below the Mines, too, are water level of the springs. The valuable and exten sive are the St. Clair mines. It on that there is now an additional expense itnhicemleliminnicaantioned that the pared with a few years ago, com pared and shores required for the galleries and mines have literally used up all the large timbers the aafts. of the vicinity, and although the mountains are covered with withtrees, yet they are now all small, and l am assured th that timber for the use of the mines—and a few m i nes willuse up a forest—is hauled for fifteen or twenty miles. Thus the hauling costs more than the trees. A majority of the population here is foreign— from Wales, England, Scotland Ireland, and Germany. Miners of skill get much more than labourers, and generally realise from $2O to $3O per weak, and they usually work by piece or quantity, at sti pulated prices per ton or per yard, with the operaters. I visited an extensive mine belonging to Mr. George H. Potts, and the nature of the coal, the angles in which it lay, and the modus operandi of working the pit, extract ing the coal, and afterwards breaking it into different sizes by a coal-cracking mill, serecning and sifting it from the dust or small coal, were all ably explained to me by Mr. A. 31adison, formerly of the county of Durham, Eng land, bat who hart been fur nineteen years an overseer in the Schuylkill mines. And, B,h the fatal explosions; of fire-damp prevail here as in England, and my friend Mr. Madison lost a beloved brothe r b y this death-blast only . a few days before I saw Lim.

At the foot of this terribly steep de- 2.50 3.13 1.43 Total distance • 94.00 I was much pleased with the general management of the road, not only from my own observation, but from the i aqui ries I everywhere made ; and when it is remembered that this road, both near and at the coal regions, is like the trunk of a tree with numerous branches, especially at Schuylkill Haven, five miles on the Philadelphia site of Pottsville, some idea may be formed of the prudence and judgment required in the management and freightage of such a road. But the fact is, all the officers and directors, from the president, Mr. .1. Tucker, downwards, have the advantage of several years' experience, and a thorough acquaintance with their duties. Here lies the secret; for certain I am that to manage such an extensive and com plicated undertaking must require at least an apprentice ship, and that new and inexperienced hands would inevit ably entail embarrassment, loss, and perhaps ruin, upon the stockholders. The present directory consists of Mr. John Tucker, president ; Messrs. S. Norris, C. S. Boker, R. D. Cullen, G. W. Richards, M. S. Richards, and Chas. Loeser, as managers; and Samuel Bradf or d, as secre t ary an d trea surer. I should here remark that Mr. R. D. Cullen is a manager representing the English stock and bondholders, and although not acquainted with that gentleman, yet I :tin enabled to say on reliable authority that he fulfils his duty to his constituents with rigid fidelity —nay, it is even said that his judicious and economic counsels have already saved hundreds of thousands of dollars to the road; while at Pottsville, in Philadelphia, among the clerks and on the route, he is vigilant in seeing that all the employes are attentive to their work. But the president, Mr. Tucker, is the master spirit ; for when, years ago, he was elected to office, the road was deeply embarrassed ; and now, by his management alone, it is fast emerging from its difficul ties. The fact that 2,060 men are employed by the com pany will show you that the task of Government is no joke. But to results : The receipts of the road in 1853 were THE AFFAIR OF THE DAUNTLESS. $2,688,288 COURT MARTIAL-SENTENCE ON LIEUT. KNIGHT. PORSMOUTII, OCT. 10.—A court martial was held on beard the Victory to-day, to try Lieut. Knight, of the Royal Marines, for a breach of the regulations of the service, in taking Matilda Jane Lodge on board the Victorious, hulk to the Dauntless on the night of Sun day, the 17th of September. The court consisted of Rear- Admiral Martin (president), Captains the Hoa. °rep, Sir T. Maitland, Elliott, Robinson, Massie, the Hon. F. Hastings, Harris, and Crispin. The following were the charges against Lieut. Knight. Thus : From coal.. Passengers Merchandise The expenses of the road in 1853 were . Such were the sums total. I find on inquiry that there are employed on the road Steam-locomotive engines lO3 Coal cars General freight cars Passengers cars Stationary engines Water-power engines lO • Steam-wood cutting engines 3 Snow ploughs Carts and waggons 33 Horses $2,254,69i 225,763 . 180,c12 $1,01.8,163 Then there are machine-shops, foundries, wheel-shops, carpenters' ditto, smiths' ditto, at the termini, Reading, &c. I learn that on a recent day no fewer than 2,500 cars were sent down the road from Pottsville and Schuylkill Haven to Philadelphia, each car containing tons of coal. The receipts are frequently 20,000 dols. per clay. The present freight for coal to Philadelphia (Richmond) is 2) dole. per ton. The coal by railroad reaches the market in six or eight hours ; by canal it requires nearly as many days. By way of illustration as to the quantities con veyed down from the mines to tide-water, I take last week's accounts : " For that the said First Lieutenant Frederick Charles Knight of her Majesty's Royal Marine Forces, did on the night of Sunday, the 17th of September, 1854, bring on board her Majesty's hulk Victorious, two improper women, and did act improperly towards such women, in supplying them with wine and spirits in immoderate quantities, when so on board the said hulk, the same be ing scandalous actions in derogation of God's honour and corruption of good manners. " For that the said First Lieutenant Frederick Charles Knight did, on board her Majesty's hulk, Victorious, on the night of Sunday, the 17th September, 1854, sug gest to Mr. Robert Hancock, midshipman, falsely to in form the chaplin of her Majesty's ship Dauntless, that the wome❑ which he, the said First Lieutenant Frede rick Charles Knight had so brought on board the said hulk were sisters of him, the said First Lieutenant, he, the first lieutenant, well knowing at the time that such was not true, the same being a scandalous action, in de rogation of God's honour, and in corruption of good manners.

The Reading Railroad has been the means of converting the upper part of the city of Philadelphia, called Richmond, into an American "Newcastle-upon-Tyne," a fleet of coal schooners, brigs, and barques always lying there. You will judge of the extent of the Richmond traffic, when I inform you that there have been at the wharves this year, since 6,229 vessels for coal, with an aggregate ton nage against 765,140 for th e same t i me last year.

"The said First Lieutenant Frederick Charles Knight at the time mentioned in the foregoing charges, being borne on the books of her Maj-esty's ship Dauntless, then and now in commission." After the examination of a number of witnesses, but whose evidence contained nothing in addition to what has already been repeated several times, the prisoner read his defence, in which he admitted the truth of the first charge, but pleaded in extenuation that the fault specified was committed in a moment of indiscretion, at the request of the girls themselves, and that he did not intend to have kept them long on board. With respect to the words forming the subject of the second charge, they were uttered by him in joke, and he did not intend them to be repeated, nor think they would have been re peated to the chaplain. The third charge he admitted but pleaded ignorance of the regulations on that point, and the fourth charge he indignantly denied, and as serted that no proof had been given in its support. The Court found Lieutenant Knight guilty of the Ist and 3rd charges, and acquitted him on the others, and taking into consideration the irreproachable character he has borne, sentenced him to be placed at the bottom of the list of first lieutenants of Royal Marines. Lieutenant Jervis was then tried for allowing the wo men to come on board on the night in question, and not reporting the fact to the o ffi cer in command o f ship. He was honourably acquitted of the charge, having had nothing to do with the affair. To-morrow a court-martial is to be held on Lieutenant Elphinstone, for allowing the women on board, he being the commanding officer of the ship for the time. By the sentence on Lieutenant Knight that officer loses 11 years' service. RAILWAY INTELLIGENCE. CENTRAL WALES. A largo and influential meeting of the landowners of the county of Radnor was held at Penybout, being the central point of the county, on Thursday, for the purpose of promoting a railway from the Craven Arms station, on the Shrewsbury and Hsreford Rail way, rich Knighton, Penybout, Llandrindod Wells, and Llanwityd Wells to Llandovery and Carmarthen, there to join the South Wales line to Milford. Mr. John Jones, high sheriff for Radnorshire, took the chair. Several influential landowners having made eloquent speeches in favour of this line, which is con sidered to be the most direct and easy of construction between the two termini, resolutions were proposed and unanimously adopted, to the effect that the meet ing very cordially approved of the plan proposed for supplying the direct line of railway communication between the towns of Manchester, Liverpool, and the north of England, and port of Milford Haven, and pledging the parties present to support the under teking by every means in their power ; appoint ing, a committee —consisting of Mr. J. Jones, Sir T. F. Lewis, Mr. Richard Price, Mr. Henry Thomas, Mr. F. A. Railing, Mr. T. P r i c k ar d , M r . Th omas Thomas, Mr. T. I L. Lloyd, Mr. E. M. Evans, Mr. E. Bennett, and Mr. J. Edwards, to carry out the undertaking ; that a subscription be entered into in order to defray the expenses of the requisite survey, and of the other steps necessary to forward the undertaking. The landowners present signed a minute to the effect that they were willing to sell their l an d t o t h e company at the rate of 25 years' purchase, upon the fair agricul tural value tber,24. The pr )ceedings concluded with votes of thanks to the members representing the borough, and to the high sheriff for presiding on the occasion. - HANDICAP SWEEPSTAKES of 15 soya each, 10 ft, for three-yr-olds and upwards.

Scherz and Adine took the lead at starting, it. Clare and Domino, at a long interval, being the next two, and these at a distinct dis tance in advance of the ruck. No change of moment occurred with . the leading horses until they approached the New Ground, when Scherz, Adine, and Domino gave way, and D. 0. joined St. Clare, and took ground in front, foLowed by Muscovite, Rodo-rnell, Rataplan, Candlewick, Rattle, L Belle, and Ethelwolf, an d i n nearly the same order they arrived at the Abingdon mile Bottom, where Muscovite came out, and bore his colours in the van. Rataplan persevered to half way up the hill and then declined. On entering the cords, Muscovite, holding a decided lead, showed that his chance amounted to a certainty. Rattle, attended by D. 0., Candlestick, St Clare, and La Belle, made a vi gorous effort to catch him, but he won very easily by four lengths ; the second beating the third two lengths. Candlewick was fourth, St. Clare and La Belle next ; Rodo-meli about seventh or eighth ; the others finished at straggling intervals, most of them being beaten off a long way. Pace good throughout. Joe Miller, who got badly off, came in some time after .the others had passed the chair. Bracken, Balrownie, La Belle, and two or three others, also got badly off. Balrownie broke down.

A good race in with the first three was won by a neck, same distance between the second and third. Brilliant weather, and'phe town all bustle and busi ness, the special and other trains to-day having brought in a vast accession of visitors. The scene on the heath was highly animated and ex citing, and the preparations for the great race were watched with a very lively interest. At the saddling stables, and in and around the ring, professionals and amateurs congregated in large numbers, and speculation was anxiously and sedulously pursued, as judgment directed, fancy imagined, and books were to be " ope: rated" upon: Muscovite maintained his position in the betting with unshaken firmness, and his performance in the race fully justified the strong confidence of his backers. He won very easily. The challenge for the whip was not the least interest. ing incident in the day's sport. It was a severe task for the competitors, and although Kingston unfortunately broke down in the fetlock joint of the off-hind leg whilst in possession of the lead, and when within half-a-mile of home, there is no doubt that Stockwell would not have obtained the trophy had no such casualty occured.
