the signature OF Admiral Porter, not as Acting

The Miners Journal, in Pennsylvania, talks
with much complacency of the suspension OF
work al the coal mines, and seems to think, 1t
is all right and proper, to have suspension
whenever there is large supply of coal on
hand, and there is likely to be a natural and
proper decline in prices These coal pro-
prietors keep the whole country under contri-
button to them.
