THE RESULTS OF DEAR Coal IN ENGLAND
Tha large advance in the price of coal in Great
Britain is seriously affecting the interest of
British steamship owners, by materially rails
ing the cost of the running expenses of the
vessels, aud heavy losses are apprehended 1t
is estimated that the cost of working large
steamer has been increased e45 per day by the
rise in coal, although small portion of the ex-
cess is attributed to the advance in labor. This
has caused the owners to look elsewhere for
supply of coal, and it is stated that one of the
Oldest English transatlantic steamship compa-
MES have contracts to take all their coal for use
on board their vessels on the American side, at
Pictou and Sydney, where coal can be obtained
at shillings per ton, the present price of steam
coal at Cardiff being thirty-ive shillings per
ton One effect of this DEAFNESS of coal is to
bring sailing vessels into greater demand, and
if high prices shall continue to rule any con-
siderable length of time, the result must be
very advantageous to shp-owners in this coun-
fry

A Coon SUGGEsTIoN.-The following practi-
cal suggestion in the Providence Journal is ap-
plcable to this locality as well as to the one for
which it was originally designed:
Pay Your Small Bals-Tuesday was the first
day of the quarter. Yesterday the tradesmen
generally sent in their bills If this is disput-
ed, we can affirm it of our own personal knowl-
edge and experience. Now if you mean to pay
these bills it makes no difference to you wheth-
er you pay them at once or whether you wait
till, through your neglect and the neglect of
others like you, the shopkeeper or the mechanic
that you have 'patronzed' may be obliged to
borrow money at tea or twelve per cent. to meet
his engagements. If you pay him he will pay
another, and that other will pay still another,
and the ten dollars that you set in motion will
pay hundred before night, and perhaps come
back to you before it has finished its beneficent
iourneyings. 1t is really shame to make
man call, time after time, for small BILL till
the hours wasted in collecting it take off the
profits that it represents. And the debtor gains
nothing by it. Among The minor virtues, the
prompt payment of small bills holds a conspic-
GUS place.
