Tue ANTHRACITE Coal TRApE-Thirty.
one years ago the first coal went TO Phila,
delphia-beDg ten wagon-loads hauled over
the mountains by George Shoemaker, OF
Pottsvile Very few persons could be in
duccd TO purchase it, and most OF these were
wholly unsuccessful in their attempts to
make it burn. Everybody considered it a
mere stone. Mr.. Shoemaker was denounced
in all quarters as cheat, and measures were
taken to arrest him for swindling but he
escaped arrest by leaving the city by cir.
cuitous road, and did not stop until be had
got thirty miles on his homeward journey.
The most remarkable feature in this extra
ordinary speculation was that Mr.. Shoe
maker did not himself know how to make
the coal burn. He was therefore, unable
to convince the public tina, it really would
ignite. Had he experimental at home, aud
brought with him crate or sto e. in which
10 kindle successful fire, the exhibition
would have 40 doubt FASTENED full ten years
the development of the coal business. He
reached home Disguised at the belligerent
temper Of the citizens. and heart sick az the
i'll success OF his adventure. His reputation
as an honest man was rescued. however, by
an iron master in Delaware County, into
whose hands some Of the repudiated mineral
accidentally fell. lie tried the coal, caused
il to burn freely with an intense heat and
was so pleased with it that be proclaimed
the fact in the newspapers. This led Others
TO try il. and they also succeeded; the pre-
JUDGE was removed, and consumption went

Popular Sovereignty.
The Dubuque Express and Herald %

The Dubuque Express and Herald says
The power and right OF legislatig over
the domestic affairs OF the people vas not
delegated TO Congress, and Of course belongs
to the people. The Democracy woull keep
them in the hands Of the people, while our
opponents seek to confer upon Congress
powers which are denied to il by the consti.
tuition. One is jealous for the rights and
powers of the people the other would build
up strong central government.
What is this but federalism, AID
against what is il, in this latter and more
prosperous day Of the Republic, rearing
itself, but the people and the peoples
rights?
Federalism in 1870 and 800 doubted and
denied the capacity Of the people for self.
governmental 1856 and 1858 il doubts
and denies the same thing. In lS0O the
people, under the lead of Thomas Jefferson,
proclaimed anew the sentiments Of the Dec.
laration Of Independence and the fundamen.
tai doctrine of the Constitution--MAN's
RIGHT AND CAPACITY FOR SELF GOVERNMENT.
In 1858, federalism, under the garb Of a
new and bogus republicanism, proclaims the
sovereignty Of Congress over the people" in
the territories, and denies them the right al
well as the power Of selfgovernment.
Against this political heresy and alsehood
the Democracy stand up as bulwark and
shield, and will never cease the battle until
as in 1900, the people conquer.
The doctrine of popular sovereignty must
be upheld by the people, and the last restrc.
ton upon its perfect exercise and possession
by all to whom belong the sacred character
Of American citizenship must melt away be-
fore the alLconquerDg power Of an intelli
gent patriotism. Federalism cannot sub.
vert nor demagogues destroy it.
