HUMGoLDT's BUsT.-Thc colossal bust OF
llumboldt executed by Mr.. Edward Valen-
tine has been placed on pedestal at the
Theatre, and is being decorated for the fcs-
tival to take place tomorrow. In this, as
work of art. we are Of opinion that the
young and talented artist has fairly ex-
cccdcd himself, and that he has produced q
model that would do credit TO men Of greater
fame as eculptors. Mr.. Valentine had but
short notice for the execution of this bust
and an engraving Of humboldt was all that
he had 10 work upon. He first produced Q
life-size bust, and then the colossal, which
is twice its size.
The fidelity preserved in the portrayal
Of features il both OF these is remarkable
and one cannot fail to notice that the artist
has studied as well as labored in the exc
cution of his work. 1t has been pronounced
by competent judges as most excellent
production; and on the approaching ami
ycrsary it will prove q fitting emblem t.
grace celebration in honor Of the grea
| Humboldt.

The Registry Law Before the
Supreme Court.

The Supreme Court in Janc in Phila-
delphia, July 7th, declared constitutional
the Registry Law as passed by the Legis-
lature. The decision is very lengthy, ard
includes the opinions of JUICES Agnew,
Read and Williams. Judges Sharswood
and Thompson dissented The decision
reverses the decree of the Court of N1si
Prias, and the special injunction is dissolved
The decision concludes as follows Il is
true there is a kind of liberty this registry
law VIII destroy. 1t is that licentiousness.
that adGlterous freedom, which surrenders
the polls to hirelings and vagabonds-out-
casts from home and honest Industry, men
who have no citizenship or>stake in the
Government, men who will commit periurv
violence and murder itself To prevent
this Is the purpose Of this law. and it
should have the aid of fair men of all nar-
ties to give it fair trial and secure its
true end. 1t may have defects. Doubt
less it has; and what system devised by
lhe wit Of man has not ? But its defects
u any, should be remedied as they are
disclosed by experience The law is not
unconstitutional. 1t is part of the DO
iltical system Of the State on which its of.
hcers and its very continuance depends,
and we as Court, have no right to put
our hands upon the whole system on the
grounds of mere hardship, and for defects
of regulation which are not clear or pal
pable violations Of the letter or very spirit |
Of the constitution.

Pennsylvania Coal Trade.

We learn from the timers Journal that
the collieries are ali in operation in Schuyl-
Kill county, except one or two in the
western end, where there still exists some
difficulty in regard to wages. In the Le
high region a number of colleries have
started, and we presume they will all be
IN operatiun in few days. In that re-
glon they found it necessary to regulate
the rate ofwages on different basis. which
led to some delay. but it was understood
that all the miners would be at work next
week. In the Wyoming and Lackawanna
region all are at work, except the Della
ware and Hudson, Lackawanna and West
ern companies These companies seem
determined to refuse the basis; aud will
not yield. We see some tendency to run
up the prices of coal beyond what they
ought to be. Theirs is really no necessity
to do SO, and we hope it will not be done,
because it would materially diminish the
breakdown in prices, which would only
tend to increase difficulties. The supply
OF bituminous coal thrown into the market
this year shows an increase of nearly 3OO.-
900 tons so far, which will be materially
increased for the balance Of the season
This must be taken into consideration By
the anthracite trade.

The FRUIT CRoP.-The supply of fruit
OF every description this year promises to
be immense. The pear and apple through,
out our own State are already bending be-
meath the weight of the young fruit The
peach crop in Maryland and Delaware will
be unprecedented The railroad compa-
nies in the latter State have now ready
over S0ar hundred properly ventilated and
Sheived cars for the transportation of the
peaches. 1t isbeleved that these arrange
ments Will be hardly sufficient to move
the fruit, and that more cars and sailing
vessels will be required. The inhabitants
OF Delaware are congratulating themselves
that the peninsula, which has been impov-
erished by failures in former years, is now
favored by Unprecedented crops, and that
comfort and happiness will be restored to
hundreds Of homes where want and mise
ry have prevailed for the past two years.
