to its fund during the last year over $780,
600! The College has now permanent
endowment of more than $500, 900, and
by generous donation from John l.
Blair, Esqr., the Trustees have recently
added over twelve acres ofvaluable ground
to the College premises. The Alumni
Professorship has made steady progress
so that by next Commencement, it is ex-
pected that their full sum will be added
Almost daily some former student sends
his subscription of $l00, or declares his
intention to do SO at an early day, all a.
like animated by generous impulse to
share in the noble work, and unwilling
that the ''roll OF honor" shall be completed
without their names and we are sure
a broad foundation has been laid, that
other men like that noble, generous Phil

One of the Wonders of the World.

The Del & Hud Canal Company have
now piled at this place in the neighbor-
hood of 0,000 tons of coal. This SIM
pie announcement may not excite the
wonder of the general reader, but when
we add that the pile referred to is, so far
as there is any record, the largest body Of
coal ever collected in one heap on the face
of the earth, his attention may be secured
to few courteous calculations.
Thee cars in which the coal is brought
from the mines to this place, when
coupled together, average about fifteen
feet in length, and carry about three and
three quarter tons. To remove the stock
at this point at one load it would there
fore require train of SO 1888 cars, reach
ing 265 miles in length and if unload
ed at the rate of one car in every FIVE
minutes for ten hours each day, the train
would be considerably upwards of two
years in discharging its freight, allowing
no rest for Sundays.
The vastness of the accumulations on
our docks awaiting the opening of the
seasons navigation, will more clearl y strike
the ordinary consumer, if we base our
calculations on the quantities in which it
is generally delivered. A procession of
100000 carts would be needed, reaching
in one continuous line considerably more
than 1000 miles-and requiring, provid-
ed they could be simultaneously loaded,
and all start at the same time, travelling at
the rate Of four miles per hour, ten
hours, day, upwards of ffty-three days,
to pass given point.
Again, let us suppose the Company
generous enough to make some man
present Of the pile on condition that he
remove it with a wheelbarrow, carrying
one cwt. at each load, and making trip
every fifteen minutes. \ simple calcula-
ton shows that working the ordinary
hours, he would be over 6lO years in Sc
curing his treasure.
When we take into consideration the
fact that this immense stock is not much
more than e-fourth Of the amount which
will find its way to Rondout through this
place during the year, and that the Del.
& Hud. Railroad and Canal is only one
among large number of avenues by
which the products of our mines reach a
market, we shall begin to appreciate the
untold wealth of our State and the ma
gnitude of the interests involved in its
development.-H -Hoaesdale Herald

A Noble Hearted Girl.

An incident has lately come to our
knowledge which we think we are justi-
fed in alluding to. A Miss Jennie Sny-
der, of Rush township, Northumberland
county, poor, but noble hearted girl,
was betrothed to a Mr.. Kline. Mr.. X.
volunteered at his country's call and re-
ceived a bounty of four hundred dollars,
which he gave to his lady love with this
condition that if he was not spared to
return the money was to be hers. Mr..
X. was killed or died in the service, but
Miss S. instead of retaining the money in
a selfish grasp, employed committee to
proceed South in search of the body of
the "loved and lost" which when found
she had brought home and inferred with
Christian rites, the cost of which absorb
ed a greater portion of the money
Would that many of the fair ones OF the
land, would emulate this humble girls
example-Danui7le hteHigencer.

The Southbridge Mass Journal says
that last Sunday good deacon of the
Orthodox persuasion, who lives on Leb-
anon Hill in that town, drove into the
village with a load of potatoes and stop
ped in front of the Post Office, which
place he tried to enter, but found the
door locked Some one standing by remark
ed that the Post-Ofice didn't keep open
on Sunday. "Sunday =" said the deacon,
with look of perfect astonishment, Il
thought it was Saturday and here I've
brought load Of potatoes to SELL" Be-
ing assured that it was Sunday, the dea-
con mounted his wagon and started home
ward, with the puzzled expression Of one
who was never so before mistaken In all
his life.
