DISASTER At CARRoNDALE PENN) Coal MINE.
On Monday, the 2tst instant, an immense mass
of slate, about seven acres in extent fell from the
roof of one of the mines of the Delaware and
Hudson Canal Company, at Carbondae, upon the
workmen below The spot where the slate fell
was nearly mile from the mouth of the mine
Three persons were taken out seriously injured,
one of whom, boy, died soon after the accident (;
the Others hopes are entertained Of their recovery
The boy who died was riding horse at the time
of the accident and is supposed to have been killed
by the force Of the air rushing towards the month
OF the mine. The horse was also killed. The 9TH
er two persons who were taken out were also in
jured by the rushing of the air. About one hun
dred and fifty men, who were at work mining, some
distance from the place of the accident, escaped
but horrible to relate, fifteen persons who were at
work proppng up the mines were either crushed
instantly, or walled in without any hope Of being
rescued, as it will take weeks to remove the i'm
mense mass of slate which has fallen in; and if
yet alive, will be compelled TO die one of the most
horrible of all deaths, that Of starvation! We have
been furnished with the names Of the missing per-
sons, fourteen of whom have families. They are
as follows:
Anthony Welsh Mark Brennan, William Chnes,
Patrick MITCHELL Patrick Leonard, Henry More,
James McGath, Michael Falin, Henry Derney,
John Farrell, Patrick Walker Peter Crawley, John
Hosea, Benjamin Williams, and son Of widow
Rrennn.
We are informed upon good authority that this
accident will not retard the operations of the Com
pany.
P.S. Since the above was in type we learn
Mr.. John Hosea had made his way out having by
his owl. exertons dug his way through the fallen
slate with his hands only, after having been incar-
cerated about AZ hours.

that although we seem grieved at the shortness OF
life in general we are wishing every period OF 1t

10 be a man of business; then to make up an es-
tate then to arrive at honor then to retire. The
usurer would be very well satisfied TO have all the
time annihiiatcd, that lies between the present mo-
ment and the next quarcr.day the politician
would be content to lose three years Of his life,
could he place things in the posture which he fan

his existence, all the moments that are to pass a.
way before the next meeting.

Brigade, LIST Division Indiana Militia, has reported
himselfat the Adjutant Generals Office; and "desres
that his services be rendered to the President, as
volunteer in the Mexican war, to go at the head OF
his brigade, or as colonel or as captain, pri-
rate soldier; in Whatsoever capacity it may be
thought he can render the most efficient service to
his country" This is the spirit of true patriotism.

document he does full justice to the glorious achieve
ments Of the 9Th and 9th and To the general the off.
GERS, and men who participated in the two victories
This is one Of the most marked compliments which
the President could pay to the commanding general
We understand that the President promises, soon
the authentic details Of the action have been re-
ceived, to give the proper testimonials to the other
officers who distinguished Themselves on these occa
sons.
The resolution Of thanks, &c, which has been
laid before the Senate Of the United States could moi
have emanated from a more appropriate source
than from the senator Of the State of Teray
1t is realizing the saying of Iaudatr laudatO. No
one better able to appreciate the honor of such
a victory than the senator who had himself set the
first example of similar achievement over a Mex.
lean army. 1t was Houston offering his tribute OF
respect to Tayor-the hero Of San Jacinto weaving
the laurel wreath around the brow of the victor OF

A
Great Britain this right to equivalents is aeknowl
edged and practsed on, by endeavOring to compen
safe the agricultural occupation by particular favor'
and monopolies, for those granted to the manuiac-
turing classes. This system Of equivalents must ex
list as an appendage of exclusive privileges, to give
them the appearance of justice and equity Now,
upon this system, how would il work here What
would be the effect Of power in Congress to grant
exclusive privileges to two occupations, bankers
and manufacturersl without any power to grant to
other occupations, or the persons engaged in them
the countervailing equivalents Must we not con-
cude, either that Congress have no power to grant
these exclusive privileges to the individuals engaged
in these occupations that the constitution has in
vested it with AN absolute, internal power, over
persons and property-because it can never be i'm
agined that its wise trainers intended to invest Con-
greSs with power of granting exclusive privileges
to too occupations Of no value, and the other of
inferior value, and to prohibit it from-advancng the
welfare Of the agricultural, commercial, maritime,
and scientific occupations, OF 80 much higher por
lance.
Holding, as we do, for these reasons, the present
tariff TO be framed upon a wholly erroneous view Of
the constitution we cannot cease to urge from day
to day upon Congress the necessity Of reforming it
at once 1t is unauthorized; and if il were author
zed it would be unjust and unwise. Standing upon
this strong and mistaken platform, must con-
tnue repeat decided protest against the pres
ent abominabe tariff. We will proclaim our pro-
test, until justice be done to an oppressed cemmuni-
ty. Thus thinking, and thus feeling, we shall
firmly and respectfully protest against any adjourn
ment Of Congress- before this great question is set
uon any such action, let it originate in what quarter
it may. An adjournment with this capital work
unfinished, would be a step full Of the deadest
peril to the democratic party. 1t would rouse the
country against US. The people demand that the
tariff shall be promptly reformed. BY ancient prin-
cipes and by recent pledges, the democracy Of the
country is pledged to its reform. We respond,
therefore, most heartily TO the language which we
heard to-day from democratic and distinguished
member Of Congress from the West. al will sit
here ill December" he said, "before will consent
to ad journ, and leave tho tariff question unset
tied" We heard another able and accomplished
member from the West express a similar sentiment
1t is the true sentiment II is the only true senti-
ment upon the subject. 1t is the only sentiment
which can save the democratic party from dsunion
and disaster. 1t is the only sentiment on the subject
which does justice to the constitution or to the
country.
