The incessant rain on Tuesday

Awful Disaster.

A disaster as terrible as any that
has happered in the collietles OF
England, occurred yesterday in one
of the coal mines near Plymouth,
Pennsylvania. Two hundred men
went down in the early morning to
their daily work, turning their backs
on the sunlight and the air. Dur
ing the forenoon; from some unex-
planned cause, a fire caught at the
mouth Of the shaft, and blazing UP
soon passed beyond all human con
troll. Then the mass fell down,
burning still, to the bottom of the
shaft, sealing the door equally
against escape end assistance. No
aid could come to the toilers, and
every man of that company, it is
believed, persisted, not one being
left to tell the awful story of sufFo-
cation and slow coming death. -

find the following in many Of our

"The Washington Register learns
that two turnpike contractors, in

expenses, last simmer, $4,000
each; and that a sub-contractor is
now constructing a pike in that
