Dr. Gwin and Gen. stone.

NEW YORK, July 3l.-The Times Mexi-

Texas, or at least in Matamoras, swearing
the downfall of the Empire. His first step
will be to take the oath of allegiance to the

also going from Mexico. He did not ac-
complish anything, as far as am aware
He may thank his keeping company with
Gwin for his want of success. However, in
justice to the General, let me say that ofmy
own knowledge know that he still loves
the old flag, and has always, while in Mex
leo, abstained from political illusions.

BURIAL AND REsCUE.-The Plain Dealer
of Saturday gives the following account of
an interesting incident that occurred re-
Gently in coal mine at, or near Hubbard,
Trumbull county:
Itappears that Hubbard mine is entered
from the river bank, the entrance guarded
by dam. This dam gave way while all
the miners were at dinner except the
four unfortunate ones who were only res
cued yesterday morning. The four men
comprehending their situation fled to the
highest portion of the mine, at about a
halt mile from the entrance. Their fellow
wOrkmen outside, supposing they would
seek this point, commenced Immediately
over it, as near as they could judge, and
after penetrating sixty-eight feet tortu-
nately struck the pit in close proximity to
two of the half-famished men. BY means
of a tube they were enabled to communi-
cate with them and give them food. Of the
other two no information could be OBJ
tained. The scene about the pit until, and
at their rescue was very affecting. All
were married and their wives and children
never left the pit till their deliverance.-
Yesterday morning the water in the river
had so fallen as to admit small boat and
two men, who, after entering the pit about
half mile, found two of the men speechless
with exhaustion, and few rods further
they found the other two, and brought all
safe to the open air. The scene can better
be imagined than described. About two
thousand people were present at the time.
The men were with difficulty resuscitated,
but are now doing well.

Annexation of Canada to this
Country.

New YORK, July 3l.-The Herald's To-
ronto correspondent says the feeling of the
Canadians in favor of the annexation of
their province to this country is gradually
growing and strengthening, notwithstand-
ing some drawbacks it met in the late Com
mercial Convention at Detroit. 1t is said
that the contrast formed by the business ac-
tivity on one side on the border, and the
absence of it on the other, is just
now even more marked than at any
former time, and it is believed that unless
the Provincial Parliament does something,
at its next session giving promise of i'm
provement to the Canadians, the anneXa-
tion storm will break out with fury.
