our forces not being aware of it till they
arrived at the creek on their retreat, they
were then forced to run town the creek
aud Cross at mill-dam, where the enemy
had commanding position. The slaugh-

heavy. The oversight consisted in neglect
to destroy railroad leading from Corintb

the Unionists to run in recruits during the
entire night previous to the retreat.

B0-Ax ITEM yoR LADIEs.-The demand
for embroiderers in bullion continues as
great as ever. This is kind of ornamen-
tai work that few American ladies under
stand. While in fashionable schools en-
broidery of many kinds is fixed branch of
instruction, embroidery in bullion is never
heard of. Probably this is the case, be-
cause the art, if understood, can be prac-
tised With equal success without reference
to the material used. The necessity for
large supplies of military work has given
lucrative employment to all who possessed
the necessary skill. Ladies who can en-
broider shoulder "straps" and the like for
military equipments, can fad plenty of
employment. A bupgler, however, will
not succeed. However careless soldier
may be as to the fit of his coat, the excel
lence of the ornaments is very closely criti-
cised. Ladies will do well to learn bullion
embroidery. 1t is an accomplishment. In
the event of necessity it is generally sure
means OF livelihood. In time of peace the
manufacture Of society regalias aud similar
work invites the handiwork of all who
know the art. The military stores are en-
ploying all the embroiderers they can End.
Good prices are paid. The manner in
which these gentlemen know how to charge
for these articles is decidedly cool.

Resisting the Draft in schuylkill Co
Pa'@Tha Miners in Arms,

PHILADRLPHIA, Oct, 24.-LeLters reoeiy-
ed yesterday ia this city give the
following facts: On Tuesday last great
number of the Golfers in,SchuyIkiII coun-
", Pa, were stopped in their operations by
band of miners, who perambulated the
roads and insisted upon all the employees
Joining them in riotous proceedings. The
cause of the outbreak is determined reso.
luton on the part of the miners to resist
the impending draft. Il is estimated at
least 5000 men are engaged in the affair,
and the uproar will, it is anticipated, ex-
tend throughout the whole. mining region.
The rioters are nearly all armed with blud-
geous, guns, pieces of iron, swords and
every variety of weapons. 1t will at least
require two regiments aud battery to
quell the tnmult, which was still proceed
ing with increased violence.
Yesterday a railroad traia from an adj
joining county transporting drafted men to
Harrisburg was stopped by gang of the
miners and the men within invited to step
into the road where they were assured all
attempts to coercs them to serve the Gov.
eminent would be unayaililg, many of
them Gid so aud are now in company with
the strikers. The riot Is said to have orig.
iuated on Tuesday last. So much resistance
was offered to the enforcement Of the draft
that the Commissioner deemed it expedi-
ent to postpone It until Monday next.
The miners threatened to offer the gov.
eminent of the State either the alternative
of not drafting or Of remaining entirely
uusupplied with coal from this region
Since the origin of the disturbance the re-
ceipts of coal in this city from Schuylkill
county at Richmond, have been about one
half less than usual, aud yesterday about
oue-third only of the usuaIamouut was re-
ceived.
