Mr.. HEPwoRTH AeA1N.-MeSsrs. Editors |
should be glad of small space in your columns
TO correct what seems to me an error in your
article on Mr. Hepworth in the Spy of the 18th
inst. I think you mistake in saying that Mr..
Hepworth's case "has produced an unusual
amount of feeling among Unitarians@ although
it may be true land if SO it is not to be won
dered at), that "in the church with which he
was connected, there was a surprising Outburst
Of sectarian dogmatism" Cfyou like the word
'dogmatsm"), but 50 far as have been able to
ascertain the facts, the only notice which has
been taken of the course of Mr.. Hepwortb, has
been by the newspapers, secular and religious,
which, perhaps, are exeusabe, in the dearth of
any important matters of interest, for Selling
upon any circumstance which may serve to
point paragraph.
am a personal friend and admirer of Mr..
Hepworth, and while regret to lose him from
the Unitarian ranks, feel quite sure that he
will always be found among the friends Of free
thought, and chiefly regret his departure, be-
cause have always observed that those who
have taken this course, seem to have dropned
into sudden oblivion, however brilliant were
the dramatic effects by which the event was
made public. Yours truly,
UNITARIAN.

The frequent destruction of life in mines calls
tor some devise by means of which greater
safety can be secured. The following outline of
plan has suggested itself to me as going far to-
wards securing comparative safety. 1t is, to
carry down the shaft and through the passages
wrought iron pipes. In the passages they
wouldbe placed upon the bottom, and perhaps
for greater security against injury from falling
masses OF rock, laid in grove by the side of the
passage. These pipes are to be made with fire,
quent openings, secured by caps that can readi-
ly be unscrewed by the miners. In case
passage should become closed by the falling of
masses of rock or earth, thus preventing the
escape of she workmen, air could be forced in
for respiration, and, in case of long conine-
ment even food in liquid state could be CON
veyed to them.
This pipe would also serve as a speaking tube,
by means of which communication could be had
with the imprisoned miners, thus aseertaining
their situation and difficulties.
Ia case Of fire at the mouth of the Shaft as
frequently occurs, by forcing in air, the smoke
would be driven up the shaft and thus retard if
not prevent the fire from extending downwards,
"hile at the same time it would prevent the sur
location OF the miners. When a fire commences
below, water aud air mixed could he sent down
th water to put out the FIRE, and the mir for sus.
tanning the workmen.
Foul air could be expelled, by forcing rood
air in, or drawn out by suction as mirb, Soon,
best in given case. The openings in the nino
before mentioned, should be kept closed So tho,

CHEAP BUT HoNEsT.-Mauy years ago, when

was quite young man, he, IN company with
his father, Hon. U. IL. Charlton, spent every
summer in the delightful village of ClarksYille
Northeast Georgia.
One dav Robert was passing along the street
in Clarksville, and it happened to be election
day (members of congress were then elected by
what was called the general ticket system, and
not Oy districts, as they now are), when he was
near verdant but honest voter of the noun

friend was seeking treat, invited him into a

Another cake was purchased and paid for, and
the two friends parted; "greeny" to find his
brother, and Mr.. Charlton to Join his young
friends in paror hard by.
"The golden hours on Angels Wings passed
rapidly away with Mr.. Charlton. His friend
was soon forgotten. Late in TIL evening our
verdant friend, very much to the surprise of
every one, stalked INTO the parlOr aud inquired
for Mr.. Charlton. Drawing from his bosom

The value of foreign merchandise received at
the port Of Boston for the year 1871 was SOL
716,05S, gold value, duty unpaid against e4S,-
499,767 for 1870, showing an increase of over
thirtee and a quarter millions, or about twenty
seven and quarter per cent. The value IF eX-
ports for the year was SO 005 ,103 against
1902 ,649 in 1870, showing d gam OF nearly
seven millions, or over ffty-seyen per cent; this
gain being almost entirely of domestic products
A year ago it was reported that the gain in the
value OF the imports of Boston in 1870 over 1869
was twenty-five per cent while the exports were
without change Taxing the whole of our
foreign trade together, the per centage Of devel-
op nent in 1871 was greater perhaps than that
of any previous year IN the history of the city,
except the period Immediately succeeding the
establishment Of the Cunard steamship line in
1910. There had been a gain also in the numhur
of vessels arriving and departing from tue har-
boz OF Boston during the year. The arrivals
from foreign pOrs in 1871 were 311S, and the
foreign clearances were 1896 In 1870 the ar
rivals were 3247 and the clearanccs $500 The
colstwise arrivals in 1871 were 1926, and in 1870,
$500 The colstwise ceardnccs in 1871 were
2j46, and in 1870, 1902. The total number of
arrivals, foreign and coastwise, at the port Of
Boston in 1871 was 1902, being five hundred
and three in excess of those reported in the har-
Dor of New York.
