with the lack of oxygen to carry off the par
ticles eliminated from the body, may have
some effect in preventing that exhaustion
which has accompanied hunger in the open
air, in arid plains, or on the salt ocean.
The Zanesyille Courier of Saturday says
Last night about one o'clock, tho four
men who were entombed in the Blue Rock
Coal Bank were released, after having been
confined fourteen days and fourteen hours.
They were all able to walk, and with one
exception appeared still to have considerable
strength.
Yesterday evening another fall of rock
and earth took place, and the popes of the
workmen were nearly given up; but still
determined on effccting the release of their
comrades, they decided on making an arch
way over the fallen earth, and thus effect
an entrance. Several were willing to enter
this dangerous place, but failed, owing to
the falling rocks. Az length R. Lyons sue
ceeded in Ginning over, and with his assis-
tance the men effected their escape. 1t is
supposed that the length of the entrance
dug out Is over four hundred yards, or near
ly quarter of Il mile.
1t appears that they did not suffer much
from hunger. The first day after the catas-
trophe, they made bed of soft earth and
slept together. During their sleep the
lamps went out, and were not again light
ed. There was only dinner for one man
in the mines, and this was soon exhausted.
They then used fresh water three jugs of
which were with them, and after exhaust
ing this they used sulpher water. One of
the men got a sore throat from tho use of
this, and took swallow of oil for relief
This was all of the latter article used by
them, When getting out, the boy was
asked if he was hungry; he said not but
was anxious for chew of tobacco.
The audience was cautioned against
around the entrance of the mine,
or exhibiting any undue degree of satisfac-
tion upon the appearance of the men, and
the advice was strictly followed.
Up to an early hour this morning, the
men were doing well, and it is supposed will
not be materially affected by the change of
or mental excitement. Every
care will be taken of them by competent
physicians.
