WHOLE Nc So
From the PoUsriUe Miners J9urnal.
Value of an acre of Land.

We quote from an article under the
above head, IN the Mining Register,
which requires slight correction.
Allowing, for sake of argument, the
whole thickness Of our Coal to he 90
feet, or, after deductng on--half for
waste and fault, but Is yards; this thick
ness multiplied by the number of square
yards in an acre, which our arithmetic
makes but 1910, (in>tcad of $4,000, as
per Register equals 72,600 cubic yards
(not Square. Register,) or tons of
Coal to the acre, which, at rent of 25
cents per ton, brings SIS, $50 90.
The calculation referred to, we pre-
sumo was based upon the supposition
that the Coal laid horizontally under
the square acre. But as this rarely &C.
curs-then how much more would the
acre contain If the veins dppel at an
angle of 39a degrees or GA degrees!
How much more if the acre covered
one of the "Ridges' or 'Rols" or
"Saddlrs" as illustrated in the New
Theory, as set forth in the Ledger Of
April I'd diagram
And how much would an acre con.
tain isit covered Sharp Mountain, where
the veins are nearly vertical! Wepause
for a reply.'

GRATTAN'S DEBUT

The account of Grattan's first speech
in the English House of Commons is ex-
tremely interesting. The anticipations
Of his failure had been general. Cam.
ing was lavish with his Jokes, and Pitt
already talked with grim derision of the
famous Irish orator. When he rose,
curiosity was excited, and one might
have heard a pin drop in that crowded
house. 1t required, indeed, intense at
tention to catch the strange and long
deep-fetched whisper in which he
began; and | could see the incipient
smile curling on Mr.. Pitts lips, at the
brevity and antithesis of his sentences,
his grotesque gesticulation, peculiar and
almost foreign accent, and arch articula-
ton and countenance.
As he proceeded, however, the sneers
of his opponents were softened into
courtesy and attention, and at length
settled in delight and admiration. Mr..
Pitt beat time to the artificial but har-
monious cadence of his periods, and
Mr.. Canning's countenance kindled
at the brightness OF fancy, which in
glitter fully equalled, in real warmth
and power, far exceeded, his own.
Never was triumph more complete
Among the many eccentricities that
distinguished Mr.. Grattan, as an orator,
nothing was more remarkable than his
apparent contradiction. He was artIfi-
cha in manner, in utterance, in pronun-
citation, and in style; and yet he breath
ed such a spirit of benevolence, such a
warmth of feeling, and such sincerity of
principle, into all his speeches, that,
like Mr.. Fox himself, he won as much
on the affections as on the understand
ing of his audience.

PROPER AGE TO MARRY.-W hat will
the ladies say 10 the following remarks
Of Dr.. James johnson, IN a work re-
Gently published, entitled Economy of
Health /"
"The most proper age for entering
the holy bonds of matrimony has been
discussed but never settled. am enti-
tied to my opinion, and although can
not here give the grounds on which 1t
rests, the reader may take it for granted,
that could addnce, were this the pro-
per place, great number of reasons,
both moral and physical, for the dogma
am about to propound.-The maxim,
then, which | would incucate, is this
that matrimony should not be contract
ed before the the first year of the fourth
SeptennIad, on the part of females, nor
before the last year Of the same in the
case of the male; in other words, the
female should be at least twenty-one,
and the male twenty-eight years old.
That there should be seven years differ
ence between the ages of the sexes, at
whatever period of life the solemn con-
tract is entered upon, need not be urged,
as it is universally admitted there is a
difference of seven years, not in the &C.
tual duration of life IN the two sexes,
but in the stamina Of the constitution
the symmetry of the form, and the Inca
ments of the face"

GUARD AGAINST VULGAR LANGUAGE.
There is as much connection between
the words and the thoughts as there is
between the thoughts and the words
the latter are not only the expression OF
the former, but they have a power to re-
act upon the soul and leave the stains oil
their corruption there. A young man
who allows himself to use one profane
or vulgar word, has not only shown
that there is foul spot on his mind, but
by the utterance of that word he extends
that spot and inhames 1t, till by lndul-
gence, it will soon pollute and ruin the
whole soul. Be careful of your words,
as we'll as your thoughts. If you can
control the tongue, that no improper
words are pronounced by it, you will
soon be able to control the mind and
save that from corruption. You extln-
guish the fire by smothering it, or by
preventing bad thoughts bursting out in
language. Never utter word any
where, which you would be ashamed to
speak in presence of the most refined
female, or the most religious man. Try
this practice little, and you will soon
have command of yourself.
