The journal remarks:-
'"There are still at least 600 tons on hand at Port
Richmond and on all the cargoes shipped to New
York to take advantage OF the prices ruling there
the shippers, with only single exception So have
experienced heavy losses. From the highest point
coal has fallen four dollars a tor, so We were
informed by dealer yesterday, and all
are anxious to SELL Btumnous coal is
also arriving in largely increased quantities
from Baltimore, where the supply nearly doubled
over that OF last year, within couple or weeks.
The Chesapeake and Ohio Canal is also navig able,
and upwards OF 40 cargoes have been shipped and
vessels despatched TO Alexandria TO carry 1t to New
York on its arrival
Large contracts are being made for bituminous
coal at low rates by manufacturers and steam
lines for the season. In Boston they have ample
Goa! to last until May, and If the trade is not more
stocks to last until july Throughout all the New
as all are practising strict economy and diminishing
the number OF fires"
"For every week the resumption OF the anthra-
cite trade is delayed win the price OF coal recede
from to 10 cents a ton. This will arise from the
lessened consumption caused by the high prices pre-
Vaing in the markets for anthracite; from the eco
nomY practised in its use; and also from the
stoppage Of those works which use only anthracite
and which, IN the present state OF trade prefer stop
ping 10 going on and paying these high prices.
AnOtRfr reason Is the increased consumption OF BIZ
luminous coal, caused entirely by the uncertainty
OF procuring regular supply OF anthracite at fair
prices, Whue contracts can be made for bituminous
coal ghout the whole season at low rates and
II the duty should be removed on foreign coal, at
extremely low rates"

NIAGARA FALLS, July Ex-senator Fen
ton was serenaded this evening at the
Cataract Hotel. A crowd Of two thousand
persons were present. Senator Fenton ap-
peared, and in the course of his remarks
said: We are approaching q period which
will decide the political direction of the
nation for the next four years. In the
meantime, we have important State inter
ests to secure. Ii we were simply inditfer-
emit, and in need only of some fresh lncen-
tive as that which changes from fresh
alarm and danger, the recent occurrences
IN the great city of our State n country
would furnish it. Twill not now speak of
the blunder and the reproof, but l am sure
that we must all feel the Importance of a
close union, and a more determined effort
to the end that civil authority may be in
trusted to those who will strive at all times
TO insure the full protection of the consti-
tuition and laws, and administer the public
affairs in the spirit and integrity of our free
and popular government.
Itshould be of little moment who occupy
the off cial positions or enjoys the favor of
federal patronage, SO hat they are capable
and honest men, who fairly and efficiently
reflect the good faith and sound principles
Of the party. 1t is to be hoped, however,
that nothing growing out of this or other
matters will impair the zeal of any one.
/ have been credited in some quarters
with entertaining a spirit of concern as tc
She personality of the next Presidency, with
q desire to give the nomination to this or that
particular course. The suggestion miscon
ceives my feelings. However unimportenr
my opinion and expression may be, | have M
other wish than that the candidate should
be one who most fully embodies Republican
principles, and is best capable of leading
our forces to victory. Profoundly impressed
as l am, with the supreme importance o
perpetuating the national administration
and the general policy advocated and main
tanned BY the Republican party, | shall, TO
my humble part, cordially unite in what
ever seems best calculated to insure thi
end.
