PROSPECTS,.

The coal field on the West slope Of
the Alleghanies, extending from the
Monongahela to the Big Sandy rivers,
is by far the largest, the richest, and
Is destined to become the most valua-
bic in, the world. In Europe, nearly
all hhs coaldeposits lie far beneath the
general surface, and far below water
level. Deep shafts are sunk at i'm
mense cost, to reach them; the mines
are then ventilated and drained IS they
are being worked. only after the most
astonishing outlays. On the Kanawha
and collateral valleys, the coal crops
out of the hill sides in veins from 5 to
l2 feet thick, far above water level,
and can be dumped into the cars by the
force of gravity, for merely nominal
cost, and carried thence to wherever
il is needed. A few miles eastward of
this immense store of coal on the
eastern slope of the Alleghanies, are
found inexhaustible deposits of iron
ores of the best qualities. The Chesa-
peake and Ohio Railroad, now in course
of construction from the navigable wa
ters of the James River, to the river
navigation ofthe Mississippi Valley, the
greater part of which is already in op-
GRAFTON, crosses both the iron fields and
the coal fields, and unites them to the
seaboard on the one hand and the
Great West on the other. Nearly T.,
900 men are employed upon this great
work, and it will not be many months
before the cars will travel continuous
ly from Memphis, St. Louis or Chica-'
go, to and from these great iron and
coal deposits, and if need be, on to the
navigation of the Atlantic at Rich
mond.
These natural advantages, together
with the encouraging rush of immi-
grafton now finding It's way to, Vir-
ginia and West Virginia, will give to
those States vast wealth and industry.
The completion of the Chesapeake and
Ohio Railroad itself will set freea won
derful amount of latent power, and is
to rank as one of the most important
works of improvement now in progress.

committed one day last week, in Clifton,
by teamster living in Pomeroy, by

which he gaze the animal a severe
whipping. Our informant says that
not being satisfied. he tied small rope
around the animals tongue, fastening
the other end to the end of his wagon
tongue, and then undertook to start his
team. The poor beast, brute-hke, in
stead of starting forward, surged back,

Faith in American Ideas;

The most touching story eyer told OF
Abraham Lincoln relates how, few months
after his death, negroes in Cuba recently
kidnapped from Africa, and unable to speak
either English or Spanish, were found wear
ing photographs of the dead President upon
their bosoms They worshiDcd his memo
nv. they held the confident belief that he
would ere long, rise from the dead and en-
franchise them. In some sense, the weary
and the troubled of every European nation
cherish the same ideal OF the United States.
Shall we not extend it to the swarning ORR
emit /? Let us teach the poorest and humb
lest man in the cradle and beehive Of the
race likewise to regard our soil as waiting
refuge our flag as talisman, which the mo-
ment his feet are planted under it, will send
all the burdens of slavery and caste and
want crumbling to the ground, as rolled the
load of sin from the shoulders of Christian
when first he stood before the cross. If the
sharp experiences of the war have taught
us ANYTHING, it is that Democratic institu-
tions, based upon free suffrage, can stand
any strain. Edmund Quincy, after limiting
at the high ability, character and culture of
the old Federalists, adds, in the remark of
profound truth and significance :" 1t is
their little faith in ideas that caused their
disappearance from the world of politics;
and it was his unbounded faith in ideas that
gave to Thomas Jefferson, in spite Of all his
faults of character and his Inconsistencies
and errors of public conduct, that controll-
ing power over the minds of men, which
has not died with him, but is giving direc-
ton and shape to the history, not only Of
his own country, but of all Christendom."

Animal Magnetism.

hnThe ReligiO.P Philosophical journal says:
% ''Impregnating the whole system is what
We term animal magnetism. In certain ror-
lions of the body it is very dense, depend
ing of course, on the character of the con-
stituent parts thereof This animal magnet
ism is the life element of our nature, as it
were, or the animating influence thereof. 1t,
has its nucleus in the brain, and follows
thereirom the various ramifcations OF the
nervous system. The bones are almost des-
titute of it, while the nervous system is fully
charged with it. This magnetism, when
partially displaced rendered negative, which
is equivalent thereto) from any portion of
the system, leaves the parts 10 an insensible
condition, its degree depending, of course,
on the amount of magnetism remaining, or
the negative state thereof.
This magnetism, in certains persons, is
under the complete control OF the mind.
As is well known, the blood, gross as it is,
its circulation can be greatly interfered with
by the action of the mind. Some persons
can, by the influence of the mind alone, in
crease the movement of the pulse at least 10
a minute, or can throw superabundance
thereof to any part of the system, creating
an unnatural warmth there; the constant at
tention of the dyspeptic to the stomach,
throws to that organ an undue quantity
of blood, rendering a cure almost impossi-
ble
Now this magnetic element of the system,
under certain circumstances, is almost com
pletely under the control of the mind, and
finger, hand, arm, or the brain, can be de-
pleted of the same, and rendered insensible.
