THE PRICE OF COAL.

Coal is now high, and uDreasonably so the stock
comparatively considered with that of last season at
this time There are two reasons why the stock OF
coal should be greater this year. The first is simply
OF logical deduction, growing out of the increase
of prices, causing diminution, as may be sup2osed
of consumption The other is matter Of fact beyond
dispute, arising from known increase of supply
This latter will appear evident by the following
statement:
The amount of Coal received from the Maryland
Coal Mines to August 5, 1854 is $50 900 tuns, while
in 1858 there were but 24700O to the same date,
showing an increase for this year of 100000 tuns.
The amount Of Coal transported by the Reading Rail-
road to August of this year, was 200; last
year. to the same date, $4,000; excess this year,
100000. The amount Of Coal transported on the
Sehuylkill Canal, to August Of the present year,
5l6 600 tuns while last year there was but i6i 600
the increase this year being $1,000 The total in
crease from all sources, then, this year 10 d6l 900
tuns or twenty-five per cent. beyond the supply of
last year. 1t requires figures to prove that the in
crease of consumption, this year over last, in New
Yofk, will not be twenty-five per cent. Such would
show that the City doubles itself every four years. and
at rate great that the island could not hold the
multitudes. In word, the price of Coal is fac
ttously high aud purchases be safely postponed
until holders are more moderate in their demands.

RENTON-OUR SYSTEM.

The voters Of the st. Louis District have decided
not to reflect Col Benton, as it was their right to
DO But there are at least dozen constituencies that
want 10 see this same Benton in the next Congress-
and their wishes are equally deserving OF respect
Nothing but narrow; preposterous suicidal notion
that constituency must be restricted in its choice to
the limits of its own District, prevents his re-
election.
Why should this notion be longer respected No
other People blessed with Representative institutions
regard it, In Great Britain France, the Canadas,
a district chooses him who is presumed the fttest
man. without regard to the place of bis residence.
Yet we 60 on, letting the small politicians bargain
among themselves to which shall go to Congress
this term, and which must wait till the next, &c,
&c, without an effort to break their shackes Nay;
it has come at last to be quite commonly settled that
tbs torn must have the Assemblyman this year, this
county the Congressman, &C., &c, and there is no
reason why this petty business should stop short of
assigning each election school district the member
in its turn and then let the residents Of that restricted
domain draw lots as to which shall enjoy the honor.
We do wish some district would break over this
foolish restriction and elect Col. Benton 10 the next
Congress-
