The Coal Miners, &c.

The struggle between the Miners, the
Operators and the Railroad companies
has become serious. Whatever settle
ment may be made, let it be hoped that
it will be permanent one. The inter
ests of all the parties concerned, as well
as of the public generally, demand this.
Nothing can of course be done in
mining until the Railroad companies
carry coal to market at reasonable rates.
The Miners, and others, are petitioning
the Legislature to fix the maximum
rate of tolls at such figure as will en-
able operators at all times to send their
coal to market. But will they be sue
cessful in this application? Railroads
are powerful monopolies which exer-
else controlling influence over the
Legislature, but whether they will act
.in accord on this subject is not so Ger.
tain. The influence of the Pennsyl'
yania Railroad over the Legislature Is
greater than that of all the rest COM
-.'.s-a"no<, Sviy- 6a~t.Ge 1lebU6rican
members are subject to its command,
and we deeply regret to be compelled
to say that this is alse true of portion
OF the Democratic members. Some OF
the principal officers of the Pennsyl.
van 10 railroad company are largely in.
terested in the Broad Top coal mines
(bituminousl and their products are
enhanced in value in proportion as an
thracite coal is kept out of market.
We suspect, therefore, that the Rail-
roads will combine their power, and if
so there will be no effective legislation
for the Miners or the public.
All manufacturing interests depend
ent upon Anthracite coal for fuel, are
also deeply interested in this struggle.
They ought to side with the Miners, at
least so far as the proposed legislation
Is concerned, and if they do they will
add much strength to the demand.
Coal now commands $40 per ton in
New York, and the thousands of poor
people in the cities, who buy by the
bucket, cannot get it at that rate even.
In this emergency it is palpable that
something decisive must be done The
interests involved are too large and too
important to be submitted to the mer-
cies OF strikes, of Railroads, and of the
1ew who control these, too often for sci.
fish purposes and always with selfish
views.
The lower house of Congress has just
passed a bill repeating all duties on
Coal. We do not suppose that this will
have any effect on prices when reason.
able, but will prevent them from going
up very high.

a treaty Of peace has at length. been
signed by the authorities of Prussia and
France. The latter cedes Alsace and a
part of Lorraine, including the fortress
of Metz, and pays an indemnity of FIVE
billiards of franks, which we believe
amounts to about one thousand mil.
lions of dollars, an amount supposed to
be sufficient to cover the Prussian ex-
pense3 of the war. Three years are
given In which to pay this immense
sum, and Prussia will hold considera-
BILE number of fortresses and territory
until payment is secured.
The German army entered Paris on
Wednesday, and will no doubt hold 1t
until all points are made satisfactory.
The triuaphal entry of the Germans
into Berlin is to be delayed two months,
as the whole people of Germany will
observe six weeks mourning for the
victims of the war.
The attempt of England and other
"great powers' to interfere in the nego.
tiations for peace was haughtily repuls.
ed by the Germans. The latter made
their own terms and enforced them.
The French complain bitterly of the
hardness of the terms exacted, and by
turns beg favor and sympathy and rave
and threaten. They seem to be wholly
oblivious to the exactions of Napoleon
the great when he had Prussia under
his military heels. The fact is, the
Prussians are only getting back what
the French have heretofore taken from
them.
Other news from Europe are unim-
portant.

On the same day, Senator TURNER ofer.

Resotred, That the message of the

to the general judiciary committee,
with power to send for persons and
papers, and report to the Senate by bill

In the case of all railroads the State
retains the power to repeal their char
ters, and all can therefore be controlled
by the Legislature. The Attorney
General also says the officers of the

they combine for the purpose of raising

We believe the House of Representa-.

for near two weeks just passed. If they
had ran away and never assembled
again 1t would no doubt have been bet

with the requirements of propriety and
Constitutional obligation, we are not
informed. But the migratory legisla-
tor Ii never idle-if he is not at the

this long and general absence the peo-

What new form the buzzard is to take

The decision of this question they will

remains TO deliver the goods.
