THE COLLIERS' &wiz ne Tnz Nomm.—Matters
have once more assumed afavourable aspect et the collieries
on strike. Mr. Love has consented to accept what seems to
be • fair and reasonable steedard of weight, an allowance of
2d IM. being made before any tub is confiscated ; but Mu-
mach as this average has been arrived at from experiment.
tested at the face of the workings instead of at batik, the
miners meanwhile decline to become parties to the ammo-
meat, although it is to be hoped that so comparatively trivial
a point will not stand in the way of a final settlement of the
difficulty. An unpleasant feature bas been imported into
the movement by some threatening letters which have bees
sent to the men who continued at work —" blacklegs," as
they are vulgarly called. The menacing epistles have been
handed over to the police, but u to their bonajides there is
considerable doubt, and the recipients of them have sot
attached any serious importance to the document.. At
Bitchburn, another of Mr. Love's collieries, where opera.
rictus had been partially 'upended, there is • general desire
,to return to work, and at Houghs!, at which a slight
misuodentaoding had arisen, the men have folly
resumed their employment. Spennyrnoor is quiet.
Orpnmetion and • limitation of the hours of labour
were the two principal subjects discussed at the Miners'
Conference at Leeds, on Friday. With regard to the
latter, it was unanimously recommended that in no district
should the nom be employed more than eight hours per day,
bat that every effort should be made to obtain • redolence
even upon that, the long hour system being admitted to
exercise a moat prejudicial effect, physically, morally, and
intellectually, upon the condition al the miner. The ques-
tion of Onion was entered into with great nest and
, the feeling in reference to it being so cordial that without
I discussion an organiutioa, designated the "Misers' Na-
ltamed Associatiou," was at once formed, end an executive
cousin was appointed to carry out the project. It wands-
aided that the fund* at the disposal of the society should
sever be less than 1001. *or more than 1,000/. at one time,
THE LAST 01, THE "
An-
thony, who died on the 13th ult., is supposed to be the last
of the Ombra." He wae 74 you'd age, and had been
convected with the liberty of Norton Folpte some fifty
years, first as watch for the liberty, and eheo the watch-
men were displaced by the metropolitan police he was ap-
pointed night watchman for Spital-square, and was paid by
the inhabitants of the square and others coatributiog
weekly or otherwise. He was wandered a man who bad
faithfully discharged his duties, and he was very careful in
seeing that places were all properly fastened up at night.
It is stated that no robbery is known to have occurred
daring hi. time in the night in the places under his charge.
He had called up one person in the morning for 30 year.,
and another 25 years. and he wu much respected by the
ishabitmats. Mr. &Avis lately bad his photograph tithe°,
with lantern is baud, in his old watchman's broad brimmed
bat and great coat, that he had worn for many mare, and
down to the last standieg in front of his box. kr. Weevil
disposed of about 150 copies among the inhabitants, the
his
of which he paced at the disposal of the old man in
his last 'illness. He had saved, however, by his isdustry,
though be had bat a =all income, • small amount. He
died • widower. —Calf Press. _
