New YORK, March 22-The Times SAYS
private advices represent that the coal
miners in Schuylkill county, Pennsylvania,
are committing the most seriens outrages.
The rufiians are mainly Irishmen, who are
banded together in a secret organization for
the purpose of controlling the mines.
1t is impossible TO punish them, as, when
arrested and tried, the iuries are packed with
confreres, and they escape. On Friday
last Mr.. Hall, a superintendent, was mur-
dered with the hope of securing money he
was supposed to have had, but he had very
little with him at the time. Threats are
made against superintendents, and all live
momentarily in fear of violence. Gov
Geary has been applied to for protection.
The police continue to make arrests Of
persons who were identified as prominent
ly concerned in the riot on St. Patrick's
day. Marshal Wall was arrested yesterday
afternoon.
A preliminary meeting of delegates
from the various churches and Father
Mathew Temperance Society was held last
evening, in the basement of st. Peters
Church, for the purpose of giving public
expression to their unqualified condemna-
tion of the riot, and their censure of the
rioters.
Yesterday evening the Tammany Society
bought the lot adjoining the Academy of
Music, on 14th street, which was occupied
at the time of the fire by the Medical Col
lege, on which to erect a new Tammany
Hall. The lot is nehundred and sixteen by
one hundred and twenty feet, and the so
ciety paid eighty thousand dollars for it.
Geo. n. Carleton who is charged with
embezzeling half million dollars from the
government while treasury agent at Mem
phis, appeared before Commissioner Belts
and gave bail in the sum Of $4,000, yes
terday, to appear.
General Gleason successor of Stephens as
G. 0. I. r., made oyertures to the Roberts
branch of the Fenian brotherhood yester-
day for a union of the two sections. No
action has yet been taken on his proposition
by theSenate, which is in session arranging
the details for grand advance on Canada
in the ensuing summer.

irrespective of color, was held there last
night. There were only about fifty whites
present. Judge Moore, a white man, pre-
sided, and negro acted as secretary. The
meeting was decidedly Radical. Resolu-
tions claiming their suffrage and the right
to hold office for the colored men, opposing
large land monopOlies, and calling re-
vision of the State Code and reorganization
of the courts were adopted.
The Times special says Gen. ROsecrans
sent in his resignation. Gen. Grant en-
dorsed his recommendation of acceptance,
but before action was taken, a letter was
received from Bishop Rosecrans, a brother
of the General, asking a suspension of ac-
ton. The Congressional delegation have
asked, in case the resignation is accepted,
that Gen. Sickles be appointed a Brigadier
General inthe regular army.
There is no truth of any influential pres
sure being brought against the President
for the removal Of Collector Smyth. The
President has no official information of any
derelieiion Of duty on the part of the gen
tleman.
1t is believed Congress can adjourn on
Monday or Tuesday next.
Ihe Heralds special says the impression
gains ground here that the example of Gen
Hampton and others in Columbia, in re-
gard to the freedmen, will be very generally
followed in the Southern States, and that
much good will grow Ont Of this policy to
both races
The next address of the kind is ex-
pected from Governor Wise of Virginia.
In Richmond it is stated that Gen. Lee
favors the calling of a constitutional con-
vention under the reconstruction law.
The Tribune's special says Gen. Stead
man, who was nominated as Collector of
Internal Revenue for the first New Orleans
district of Louisiana, on the 10Th, will un-
doubtedly be rejected by the Senate to-day
or tomorrow.
