Correspondence Of the Richmond Dispatch.
I.etterusrOm Brunswick County.

w AYSIDE, BRUNSWICK Co., AIT ~.
May 26, 1871.
Your paper has a large circulation in this
section of country, and has done much
good. l wish you would give us little OF
your sympathy if we cannot get any of the
benefits Of material progress in the State as
canals. railroads, &c. We live so far from
" anywhere" that l seldom even see a let
ter in your most valuable paper from this
county. How 7 would be checred and de-
lighted if | could see in the Dispatch even
Il wish that our county could be opened up
to 4 trade with your city, which ! hope
and believe will soon he the pride and
ornament of the State, as she is now the
largest and most energetic. What we want
is 4 railroad, and what we need is an ill.,
crease of energetic and thrifty popula-
ton, which can only be brought RI.
pidly to Brunswick by immigrants
of the sort that would come If they only
had Il road to come on, and knew Of the
advantages of our county. Our county
court has just closed, after having traus-
acted mach local business, and disposed OF
Il few criminal cases. | do not mean to dis
criminate. but will say that our bar is ably
represented. and that our county court
Judge would be an honor to the erminc of
any bench in the State. Peace warrants
now are seldom, and thcfts and violence
are becoming schooner by degrees and
beautifully less" Order is beginning to
lie developed out of chaos, and prosperity
will follow IN her footsteps.
Farmers are complaining Of the want of
tobacco plants, but believe in the magic
power Of guano, and think all will be right
IN that line. Wheat has the rust severely
on the blade, yet the grain seems to he I'LL
ing out finely. The dry, cool. spell of the
present week has been very favorable to its
devclopment. The cotton is injured-some
have plowed up and replanted. The pros
poets at this time are very gloomy, when
we consider how late in the season it is.
Gardens look well gcnerally-heets plenti-
ill, and Irish potatoes rs large as turkey
eggs.
Township election passed off quietly ;
mixed ticket elected not much politics.
About week ago our countyman, Mr..
Chas. Matthews, while sitting on the fence
talking with neighbor, suddenly fell back
and died. lhear that he was paralyzed.

A SKILFUL MEDICAL OPEKATIoN.-A very
skiIful and successful medical operation
that OF the TRANSMISSION of blood from Il lamb
to human body-was performed in this
city on last Friday afternoon by Drs. j. +.
King and j. +. Winants. as..s,a
The subject was q colored man, IN in
mate Of the City Hospital, who has been
suffering for some time past, and who has
lately seemed in danger of death from mere
exhaustion. When laid upon the table he
was too weak to talk, and appeared to have
but few hours Of life left to him. When
his vein was opened but one drop of blood
fell from it. The carotid artery of the lamb
was opened, and the blood was forced from
thence, by the palpitation Of the animals
heart, through a small glass tube into the
patients cephalic vein. In this way about
eight ounces of blood was conveyed from
the lamb to the man. The operation was
entirely satisfactory in its. results, and the
patient is now doing very well.- Whining.

Terrible Accident ut Coal Mines :
Eighteen Dead and etneteen Alive

WEST P1TTsToN, PA, May 2S-Noon.-
Thirty-sevcn men have been taken out of
the mine; eighteen Of them are dead.
There is one more man in the mine.
BEN. JONES, THE LAST MAN BROUGHT OUT
PIrrsroS, PA, May 2S-2:30 p. M.-The
last man, Ben. Jones, who was supposed
| to bic crushed under the carriage, was
brought up alive. He was discovered in a
distant portion Of the mine.
THRILLING STATEMENT OF A RESCUED MINER.
P1rrsToE, Pa, May 2S.-Martin Cox, one
mine alive, mikes the following statement !:
We went in at a. NJ. My brother Ro-
bert cut through from one air-way to an
other, and turned in the gas, and six miners
came out with him. Before their shaft was
up the air was so bad that they could NOT
work at all. This was about fifteen mill-
utes before the fire, and seven came up to
the top tive minutes before the Tire was dis
covered. We were nearly Suf1ocated. Dense
volumes came down the shaft and filled the
place. We then ran over to the west side,
In the direction of the river bridge down
slope, and got in door with eleven others,
milking eighteen altogether in that place.
The smoke came in upon Ills so badly that
we gathered up a COB Of fine stuff from the
track and plastered up the cracks Of the
door, and also stuffed Goals in the holes,
which stopped the smoke for some time.
We now had time for thought and retec-
ton. No one expected to see daylight
again, and it was said it was a second Avon
dale. We all sang hymns and prayed, call
ing upon God in His mercy to save us, as
we all felt doomed beyond human aid. We
ran back and forth through gangways for
fresh air. At 3:l5 p. NJ. Patrick Farley fell
and groaned twice, and was found dead
when the men came in the place after the
fire. l then went over to the west side for
my coat to help stop out the smoke, As we
would all be sufiocated very soon. Men
then passed me, carrying back their COM
rades, who were dying in their arms. More
men were outside the doors, crying out in
distress and anguish, and calling upon God
for safety and succor. None expected to
come out alive. Mules were kicking and
neighing.
A boy said to his father, with horrible
oath, "Stop praying and crying; we will
all come out safe, and if we must die, let us
die like men - and the father and son both
came out alive. At 1880 L. Nj. became
insensible, and remained so until L was
brought out by my brother Robert about 3
o'clock Sunday morning.
Martin Cox is, an intelligent Irishman,
aged about % years.

At meeting held hy the farmers of Cum

dayl Captain w. A. Perkins was called to
the chair and DIR. K. II. GrigG made secrc-
tary. The following preamble and reSo!u-
tionS were adopted
Whereas VIC have sufficient reason to
believe that in the city OF Richmond, which
is our principal market for our products
and for the purchase OF our annual supplies
Of fertilizers. combinations have been form
ed for class interests which arc unjust and
injurious to the agricultural interest Of the
state. and unless cuuntcractcd in some way
will result in ruin to said interest and in
ultimate destruction of the prosperity OF

And whereas we are satistrd that indi-

I. Resolred, That in order to effect this
combination it is necessary that all agricul-
tural convention hc called TO assemble IN
the city of Richmond, to be composed OF

>. ReS0lrcd. That iuasmuch as Richmond
| is our natural market, and as we are de-
sirous of building UP said city and doing all
in our power to promote its prosperity ;
| that said convention should first aim TO
secure such representation in the Ex.
changes as our interest entitle us to, and
make such arrangements with the commits.

II this be found impracticable, we will then
seek other markets in which we can sell
and buy on more equitable terms.

ecutive Committee of the State Agriculture
Society be requested to fix a day for the
assembling Of said convention and through
the public papers invite the counties tc
send delegates to the same, and that they
also endeavor to make arrangements with
the railroad and steamboat companies for the
transportation of delegates to said conYen
