The RIoToUs SPIRIT seems to be an epi-
demic Just now in England, The coal miners
of Carmlington, not far from Newcastle, struck
recently for an increase of pay and were re-
sponded to by general order of eviction from
their cottages by the rapacious landlords. But
the constables sent to enforce the order were
driven off by the miners, backed by their
wives armed with kitchen utensils as well as
picks and spades. The officers of the law re-
fused to renew their attempt, and owing to the
contumacious spirit Of the surrounding region
the supply of fuel is so comparatively scanty
that the old proverb about sending locals to
Newcastle, may lose its point after all.

lowing subjects were under consideration

Of worsted. Resolutions were adopted ask.
ing Congressional legislation for the protec-
ton of the interests of the wool growers
We regard it as not among the least aus
picious signs of the times that the great
interests Of labor aud capital, of every de.
scription, are moving with energy, and, we
trust, ultimately in concert, in behalf Of
protection from foreign competition. This
movement by the wool growers we are
pleased to see. The cry had been raised
that it was the manufacturers only who
wanted protection, when the fact is, they
want it only in common with all the great
inter ests-and there is none who want il
more than producers from the soil. The
relations of the iron manufacturers and the
wool growers probably are less intimate than
hose between most of other interests and
yet both of them have found out that they
must have protection or cease to prosper
and when they cease to prosper can there be
any doubt az to the effect i? The interests
of the rural and mechanical pursuits are
identical, and the agricultural interest will
soon find out, if it has not already, that it is
more interested in having home indust ny
and home trade protected than any 9TH
er. ~ ,a't-~
The movement iuaugurated in PniIadel-
phia last week, iii the formation of a home
trade league we hope to see responded to
in every part of the land. The wool grow
ers, acting independently, but stimulated
by Identical reasons. are moving to the
same end. Let the mechanics and opera
tlves-who have the greatest stake of all
take it up. 1t is a delusion that only few
manufacturers want protection and that
consumers would be better off without.
The truth is, protection is more vital to
labor, buyers and consumers, than to manu-
facturers and capitalists-and it is this onl y
sound principle that is causing the present
mioSement-led as much as by any, by the
wool growers -Piusburgh Commercial.

Z. G. Durant, Treasurer. 1t numbers

twenty tons of coal daily. Its engine, "a
splendid 60 horse power built at Cuyahoga
Works, Cleveland, Ohio,) will be set up by
the LIST of January, and their rooms will be
opened, and mining will be commenced in
earnest. The quality of coal in this vein
differs from the ordinary coal,i being harder
and less bituminous. 1t is better stean,
coal than either of the other veins, but not
SO good for domestic use as the third vein.
it is entirely free from water, and has an
excellent roof and floor. Sixty feet below
is a vein which has been worked largely on
the north side of the river, having thick
ness from four to five feet, but considerably
broken and interrupted. Two hundred feet
lower the third vein is encountered, which
is from three to four feet thick, and whose
quality is not surpassed by any western
coal yet discovered. The Kenosha Company
have erected boarding house and severa
houses for their employees, and are now fair
