Tho PsansylvanIa Ceal nIIne Troubles.
It is happily manifest that the coal mine
troubles in Pennsylvania have nearly cul-
minated. According to the dispatches which
we publish from Scranton to-day there have,
been no disturbances for two days past Major
Swank, with two hundred Of the State Guard,
remains on duty, but the rest Of the division
has been sent home. Although no intell-
gence has been received at Scranton Of work
having been resumed it is now more than
probable that, ere long, everything will
quietly return to a normal condition. From
Mauch Chunk we are advised that the General
Council Of the miners met yesterday ''for the
purpose of deciding the question Of arbitra-
ton and expressing the real significance of the
recent reported outrages, with the names of
those they claim to be the authors thereof"
The Luzerne miners have already voted in
their several districts on the question of arbi-
tration and have decided against it. The
Schuylkill miners, although they have not yet
had a formal vote on the question, are under
stood to be generally in favor of arbitration.
The only difficulty seems to be in the selection
Of an umpire who shall be acceptable to both
miners and operators. The unofficial sugges-
ton of the names of James Gordon Bennett
and Wendell Phillips as umpires indicates
at least the confidence of all concerned in
their recognized impartiality in advocating
the mutual interests of labor and capital. We
are glad, but not surprised to learn that the
AZ avton hos Ixutn lad
into comparative insgni6cancc. The Miners
Council propose to ventilate the affair from
beginning to end, and wisely evince due
respect for the public by having resolved that
HERALD reporter shall be admitted to their
meeting to-day. The public is deeply and
universally interested in a satisfactory settle
ment of all the difficulties which interfere with
their obtaining at reasonable price so essen
tial an article in domestic economy as COAL
And now that these difficulties seem to be
approaching a desirable end-thaDks to the
prompt and energetic intervention of Governor
Geary and the returning good sense and
moderation Of both miners and operators--it
may be expected that not only the antcipa-
tons OF some OF our shrewdest and most
influential spectators will be realzed-for
example, as to the rise, already noticeable, in
Reading stOck-but also that householders
everywhere may congratulate each other on
an equally inevitable fall in the price of coal.
Such a fall, indeed, it does not seem rash
to predict in the midst of an unprecedented
cheated term" with the thermometer up
towards the nineties all over the country

The Wop,an's Hospital Fair In Brooklyn.

The Womau's Hospital Fair In Brooklyn.
A very splendid fair in behalf of this institu-
ton opened last night at the Academy Of
Music with every prospect of success. A new
feature is the introduction of remarkable
electric light, altogether different from the
ordinary calcium light, to illuminate the ex-
terror of the building. The affair is in the
people in Brooklyn. The number of cases
completely cured last year out of one thousand
two hundred patients was one thousand one
hundred and forty--a large percentage, which
speaks we'll for the medical treatment in prac-
tice there.
The amount of charity extended to poor
women, and, in fact, to many who are not in
need Of eleemosynary services, through the
medium of this institution caunot be exag-
gerated. We need hardly say that much of
this angelic result is due to the Sisters of
Charity, under whose charge it is, and the
estimable ladies who keep faithful watch and
ward over the establishment, whose uRtiring
labors help to tighten the burden of the Board
of Trustees and the directing physician. We
hope, therefore, that, as these benevolent
ladies have done so much, the people of
Brooklyn will give their patronage literally to
the fair in these blessed Easter times in be-
half of suffering female humanity. and the
little waits who are cared for in the Founding
Asylum, which is under the same management
There are many reasons why this Woman's
Hospital should be literally sustained. 1t is
the only institution in Brooklyn devoted to the
specially of wOman's diseases, and, indeed,
we believe the only one in the country, except
the State Woman's Hospital, on Madison ave
nue. and Forty ninth street, in this city
Again, it is we'll known that such peculiar
cases Of which the hospital takes charge will
not apply to institutions taking cognizance of
other diseases in general; and lastly, the
treatment of diseases peculiar to women being
one ofthe most important of recognized special
ties in medicine, can be carried out success
fully only by practitioners who have given the
subject more than ordinary attention. We
hope, for these reasons and i'm the name
of charity, that the fair for the Brooklyn
Woman's Hospital, which is now open, and
will continue for two weeks TO come,
may p rove a success.

THE CHRISTIAN MORAL SCIENCE AssoOIA-
TIoy just organized in Washington opened
its batteries upon cousciences and coupons by
public breakfast of coffee and rolls at the
Arlington at eight o'clock in the morning. or
course the attendance of practical Christians
was small. but the meeting was enthusiastic.
The Christianity that will get out of bed at
daybreak to take an uncomfortable temperance
breakfast is unusually enthusiastic, and may
be depended upon to practise the piety that
opens the purse.

THE REPUBLIC OF HAYTI-By special tele-

we have later advices from Hayti. Since the
departure of the ST. Domingo Commissioners
The President of Hayti has received addresses
from every town and village of the republic
protesting against annexation, and expressing
q determination to maintain their nationality
and independence. As jet the President has
replied to none of the highly patriotic docu-
meuts.

TuE PARIS COMMUNISTS GAZING IN.-By
telegram we learn that the Commune has
made an indirect demand that the foreign
representatives in Paris take upon themselves
the task Of arranging the quarrel with the
Versailles government. This looks as il the
insurgents had nearly exhausted their
strength, and. perceving the collapse of their
reign near at hand, were anxious TO get the
best terms possible from the government.
The representatives to whom they appealed to
intercede for them arc reluctant to take upon
themselves the grave responsibility of such an
undertaking, aud have left the matter to be
settled by the government at Versailles

that body win adjourn this week, and Friday

Il is said the adjournment will certainly take

beers want to go home, and there is a general
desire TO adjourn. Looking at this fact, and
in view OF the probable passage of the Ku

4 rs.cA or July /. April All Over -

Oeuntry-shall We Have IN EarthQaakes
The meteorological phenomena Of the past
few days have been very extraordinary, and we
regret that the official reports and prognosti-
cations from the War Department have
hardly come up to the requirements of the CO.
casion.
In this city to have the thermometer ranging
from eighty to eighty-Hve degrees for three
days in succession april 8, 8, 1O) Is like
springng the July or GUNNER solstice upon
MS at the very outset of the showery month OF
April. Two or three cases of sunstroke have
been reported. As far east as Bangor.
Maine, the hot weather was accompanied by
storm of thunder and lightning, which did
much damage. In Springfield, Mass.
april 81, the thermometer marked eighty
eight, and on the 9th nearly as high-unpre-
cedcnted in April. In Poughkeepsie, this
State the thermometer marked eighty-four
and eighty six, the ''sky having brassy, dry
appearance" In Albany, 9Th, the mercury
marked one hundred in the shade. In Phila-
delphia. on the 9th, it reached eighty-o In
the evening there was a brilliant display of
the aurora borealis in Philadelphia, equalling
that observed in the fall of the year. A
similar phenomenon was witnessed in Mil
waukee, Wis. In Washington the thermome-
ter ranged from eighty-two to eighty-four.
Iowa and Nebraska most terrific wind
storm occurred, unroofng churches, blowing
down dwellings, demolishing mills and
occasioning loss of life, the thermometer
marking about ninety. In the mountains and
Upper Platte Valley snowstorm prevailed.
In California, on the 9th, ''Norther" had
been prevailing for week, and there had
been rough weather all along the Pacific
coast.
The reasons for these extraordinary meteoro-
logical displays at this season Of the year
might furnish material for learned disquisiti0ns
from our scientific and weather wise people.
In this region the unseasonably hot weather
has been ascribed to various. causes. Among
them it has been suggested that, in conse-
quence OF the recent religious revivals, the
''other place" has become overheated with
indignation, and is about to exhibit its wrath
in the shape of an earthquake ON Manhattan
Islaud-a pleasant little natural manifestation
that has been more than once predicted. Be
that as it may, il is evident that New York
city is already getting rather too hot for some
people, and they are already making prepara-
tons for their annua! adjournment to the sea-
side and country places. As for an earth
quake, it would have the effect of shaking up
Il
religion, and thereby be calculated to do heaps
of good There was a tremendous upheaval
of The Teutonic element in New York ycster-
day, which only right smart earthquake
could equal.

THE SITUATION IN FRANCE. reports
from France are very meagre this morning
There has not been any more fighting but the
government forces seem 10 be drawing nearer
TO the ramparts of Paris. A breach has been
made in Porte Maillot wide enough to admit
storming column, aud II was expected that an
assault would be made to-day. The iDsnr-
gents were erecting barricades in the Rue RI
vo thus preparing for the probable carrying
of the ramparts at Porte Maillot This is
about all the news of a military character
which we have received up to a late hour this
morning. If the insurgents display any cour-
age at all, An attempt to storm the Notifications
at Paris will result in frightlnl loss of life TO
the assailants; and If good soldiers defended
the works their stormDg would be something
most improbable.
