Persons Rillea-'rhe Richmond Dispatch of
Saturday states that most distressing catas-
.trophe occurred in the coal pits at sMidiothian,'
near Richmond, on Friday morning. Tho Gala

body of water from one or more old and deser-
ted pits into the new one, byT which the laborers
were Immediately submerged and drowned.
Some few years since the company having ex-
haustcd their old pits, sunk new shaft seven
hundred feet deep, in the immediate neighbor-
hoood, and since then have been steadily deep
enins their diggings by incline planes, until
they have gone several hundred feet below the
main shaft. For some months past the Mining
Agent has been afraid of cutting into the old
pits, extending for acres under the ground and
filled with water, and to guard against accident,
had had the coal veins bored TO the length of
tcrty feet in every direction. These ''borings"
were always continued in advance oftheniiners,
and up to Thursday afternoon had never drawn
water. Surprising that all was safe, the night
hands descended the shaft that evening, and
Immediately set 10 work to the lower passages,
propping the arches and preparing the timbers
for the operations of the following day.

of the negro men was Standing near the main
shaft, the other hands being in the workings Sc
veral hundred feet below him, he heard the sud-
den, gushing Of water beneath, and becoming
alarmed, Immediately sounded the signal bell
above for aid. As soon as the engine could be
fired and steam got up, one or twoof tho miners
Immediately descended the shaft, and found at
the bottom the man who had given the signal,
standing in water up to his arm pits and nearly
dead from cold and alarm. He was taken above

of the unfortunate creatures was rescued, the
water continuing to rise.
During the hurry and confusion incident to
such destruction of human life; the boiler Of
the engine employed above ground in working,

stitnte was soon prepared 1t was certainly as

in the pits, six of whom were white and seven

fHN v u, NV', IENAs, NUU. ID, loOf,
hessrs. Fleming Bios, Pusburg, Pa,
DEAR SiRs: There were several cases Of
Chils and fover IN my mothers family ut the
time We received the M'Lane's Liver Fills order
cd in my letter of June l.tb, and few doses
administered in each case produced the dcrirc,l
effect, thus demonstrating the efficiency of these
celebrated Pills in that disease.
Mother has not been troubled with the sick
headache since she has commenced taking these
Pills, and as We have but few of them lett, YOU
will please send US another dollars worth. Di.
rect, ~ before, to Austin, Tc1nf.
