have but to repeat the divine calling of

that there is not a single Conaught man

THE MINER.

From the Miners journal, We learn
that in 1871 there were 101 persons killed,
and 339 injured in the mines of Schuylkill
county and 81 widows and l62 orphans
made.
The Delaware and Hudson Co., expects
to mine 1000, 900 tons of coal this year.
The Scranton Republican" says that
coal matters in its vicinity are in compare
lively fourishing condition.
THE capacity of the d. & II z. Cos
mines and equipments is 10000 tons per
week
LUZERNE companies are said to have
made contracts for the delivery of coal at
Boston at prices slightly within 81 per ton
THE Philadelphia " Ledger" says For
the Schuylkill region to command fair
share of the supply of coal consumed east
ward, there will have, necessarily, to be low
prices of coal at the mines, low tolls on the
railroad and low freight charges from Port
Richmond. Allowing 81 so as the price Of
coal at Schuylkill Haven, and 81 90 freight
to Boston, leaves but 81 for tolls to the
carrying company. These charges would
put coal into Philadelphia at g. 80 per ton,
and allowing the yarders $3.50 per ton for
preparing and delivering, would bring the
price of coal to consumers here at 81 per
ton

In passing out Of his opera house one day
last winter, Col. Fisk was accosted by a

seventeen. She was plainly, but tastefully
dressed, and appeared very earnest in her
desire to be allowed few moments Of

Beautiful Incidents.

Rev. DR. Adams, i'll the beautiful book
Of {" Thanksgiving Memories, gives us the
following incident
In the Cathedral Of Limerick there
hangs a chime of bells. which were cast in
Italy by an enthusiastic in his trade, who
fixed his home near the monastery where
they were first hung, that he might daily
enjoy their sweet and solemn music In
some political revolution the bells were
taken away to some distant land and their
maker himself became refugee and exile.
His wanderings brought him, after many
years, to Ireland. On calm and beauti-
full evening, as the vessel which bore him
toated on the placid bosom Of the Shannon,
suddenly the evening chimes pealed from
the cathedral towers. His practical ear
caught the sweet sound, and he knew that
his lest treasurers were found. His early
home, his old friends, his beloved native
laud. all the best associations Of his life
were in these sounds. Helaid himself back
in the boat, crossed his arms upon his
breast, and listened to the music The
boat reached the wharf, but still he Law
there silent and motionless They spoke
to him, but he did not answer. They went
to him, but his spirit had fed The tide of
memories that came vibrating through his
heart at that well known chime had snap
ped its strings
1t was this incident that suggested to
Moore his song of THE Evening Bells +"
As Moore is not 80 much read as he used
to be quarter Of a century ago, we reprint
the lines, as they may not be familiar to
some of our younger readers
Those evening bells Those evening bells
How many tale their music tells,
on youth, and home and that sweet time
When last heard their soothing chime.
Those joyous hours have passed away.
And many heart that then gay,
Within the tomb now darkly dwells,
And hears no more those evening bells
:" And thus I shall he when am gone
That tune they peal shall still ring on
And other bands shall walk there dells
And sing your praise sweet evening bells n

THE FATE OF Dick YATEs.-The Peoria
Qn) Review" prints this plain story
Springfield has just had sensation. A
former State official, and man who has
occupied high positions, not only in the
Commonwealth but in the nation, has been
on a spree for some days in her classic pre-
cincts. On Friday he visited Bunn's bank
ing house, and demanded $50. 1t was re-
fused him, whereupon he abused the teller
like pickpocket, and had to be elected.
He visited saloon, and asked for a drink
Of whisky. The bartender told him he had
none, whereon he grew 50 violent that he
was put out by force. Drunken, friend
less, and an outcast- is the fate of one
who aspired to be President of the United
States. He is now a perfect wreck, and
even his friends have come to the conclu-
sion that the only service he can render is
to die. Whisky has swamped him as many

A Snecimen Armament of Female Suffrage.

ASpecimen Opponent of Female Suffrage
The feelings of the members of the Wyom-
ing Legislature have been racked by the wo-
man suffrage question. Not long since the the
Governors veto of the suffrage repeal was be
fore the council. Weare indebted to
the Laramie Sentinel for an abridged re-
port of the debate, in which Mr.. Nuckolls,
the leader of the Democracy, took occasion to
remark:
Il think women were made to obey men.
They generally promise to obey, at any rate;
and l think you had better either abolish this
Female Suffrage act, or get up ne,o marriage
ceremony to fit it,"
This infamous proposition was combated
by narrow-gauge member from the 'out-
skirts of the Territory, who said:
''The Governor hadn't got no right to veto
this bill nor nothin' that we pass unless it is
somethin' witch after has passed it shall ap
pear that is wrong or that there is somethin'
wrong by witch reason it had ought to not
become law, accordin' to my reasonin'. l
am willin' every old woman shall hev guard
ian if she wants one one and kin git it.
sit amt no party question this bill amt.
wouldn't let it come up in that shape
would know better than that. This woman
suffrage business will sap the foundation of
society. Woman can't engage in politics
without losin' her virtue. 1t won't do her no
good anyhow. She can't earn dollar no
easier than half dollar if she does vote.
"No woman amt got no right to set on
jury unless she is man, and every lawyer
knows it, and l don't bleeve it anyhow. I
