OpssrSG OF Coal MINES IN BUFFA-
Lo TowS.nr.-For some time past, the citizens
of Buffalo aud Blue Grass Tow wnships, have
been considering he propriety Of opening and
working the inexhaustable beds Of coal. with
which that section OF our county abounds.-
On Saturday evening last, an enthus astic
meeting was held at the store of Mr.. H. III. q.
Ski'es, Of Blue Grass. to talk this matter over.
and adopt some method by which these va.ua-
bic deposits could he made to yield profit
Mr. G. W. Baker was called to the chair, and
Mr.. II. N. G. Skiles appointed Secretary
The Chairman in q neat address. explained the
objects of the meeting. He was followed BY
Messrs. Burnside, Porter. Havel and others A
committee consisting of Messrs. Burnside,
Havel, Mounts and Douahn was appointed
to confer with other coal compavies and CLEAN
from them all the information possible A
committee consisting Of Messrs. Skies, Por
tor and Benton, was appointed to confer with
the landholders of the Township and learn
what could be done with them. The meeting
Der 3Oth, to meet at the same place.
We are glad to see this movement on the
part of the citizens Of our county TO open up
those beds Of wealth with which nearly the
whole oi the lower portion Of our county is
underlaid. We think the time is not for DIS
tant when we shall cease sending to . neigh
boring State for oul fuel. We have it right
here at our doors in vast quantities, and it on
ly requires . movement in the right direction,
to enable us to supply ourselves with coal
from the mines Of our own county, ct price
not to exceed two thirds OF what we ere now
paying
We shall look with much anAi.ty FIR re-
ports Of the future movements Of the cit zens
Of these two Townshipss and we are confident
that the citizens OF Davenport will join Us in
wishing them God speed in their new under-
taking Let US have . aOod account from your
gentlemen at your neg meeting.

Mr. +. Cook h IS resigned his office of Mayor,
and it will now devolse upon the council to
appoint q day On which to elect his successor.
But this is not by any means the most impor-
tant Gueetion TINT will come before them. The
city has her JAM .ary interest to pay on the let
of next month. and Al, yet nothing has been
done towards raising the wherewith to meet it.
What is to be done? Is our city going to ro-
test for want of meaneto take up the coupons
on her bonds! 1t certainly looks rather du-
bious at this time, and should nothing defniIe
be done to-day, we may safely calculate that
the holders of our city bonds will have to wh.s
tie for their interest until prosperity once
more visits US. We do not know where the
city is to obtain loan to meet the January
interest. Our capitalists are all tied up by the
recent heavy failures. and have no money to
loan the city, or any one else. Some few of
our money men have the wherewith, but they
have declared their intention TO hold on to it
for the present, and see how the cat will
lump. We are certainly in fair way to 60 to
protest unless our wise city fathers adopt SO e
means to avert the calamity. The matter will
stare them in the face, and they must not at~
tempt to dodge it. The eyes Of the citizens Of
Davenport are upon the actions of the council
! today. Let them act wisely.
