SURVEY Of OUR COAL FIELDS.

In letter to C. NJ Hardy, Prof. WILDER
saws he will be in Rock Island about the Goth
or 22d inst. We mentioned, at the time OF the
institute. that he had been induced to come
up and examine our coal fields, and give us u
series Of free lectures on our mineral wealth,
or the down cellar story" Of Rock Island
county. He is now coming for that purpose.
1t is expected that quite a party Of our clti-
zens will accompany him, and Mr. Hardy in.
forms US that the Prof intends TO make ge-
illogical survey of section Of Rock River
from Sterling, in Whteside county, to its
junction with the Mississippi, thus complet.
ing the survey from Oregon, Ogle county, to
the mouth Of the river. There can be no
doubt but that our citizens who are interested
in the undevcloped wealth Of our coun,y,will
give Prof. WILDER all the facilities in their
power TO enable him to make complete SUR.
vey Of our coal fields, as no survey has yet
been made. He s to lecture in the court house
and will have crowded houses. We shall give
further notes when he arrives

Another Meeting Of the Board Of Supervi-
sOrs.

We understand that it is proposed to call
another meeting Of the board Of supervisors
TO reconsider the unfortunate action in regard
to the poor families Of soldiers who are fight.
ing for the union or are prisoners Of war in
the hands Of the enemy.
1t requires six names to a call for that pur.
pose and we hope they will he obtained at
once.
1t is unfortunate, Of course, that our sol.
diers are not all single men, or all able to
support their families and give their time
and perhaps their lives to their country. -
But such is not the case,-and the faith OF
tue county is pledged to take care Of the poor
families during the war. A special act of
the legislature was passed for that purpose.
1t cannot be done by towns, as the board re-
commended, and the sooner they rcccle from
their hasty and i'll judged--yes, inhuman ac.
ton, the better.
The SUBJECTS one which will bear ID great
deal oftalk. We forbear saying anything more
now, in the hope tina, the board will meet
and reconsider its unfortunate step.
