THE ANTHRACITE COAL MoNoPoLIsrs.-
Speaking of the coal monopoly, the Philadel-
phia Press says: We have spoken of this comb
nation as an absolute monopoly. 1t is, SO far as
anthracite coal is concerned. 1t would not be
within the bonds of possibility for any individ-
ual or corporation, or confederacy OF corpora
tons, to obtain control of any large proportion
OF the bituminous coal measures Of the United
States. These surpass in extent all the coal
fields of the rest of the world combined. When
ever, therefore, the mOnopolists of anthracite
shall permanently fix the price of that favorite
fuel at an exorbitant figure, there will be
general resort to bituminous, and anthracite
will cease to have the preference which it has
heretofore enjoyed in all the dwellings and
most of the manufactures of the Atlantic sea-
board states. So the monopoly is not complete
after all. The worst harm the combination can
erect, should they be so inclined, is to oblige
families to begin using kind of coal which
they do not like, and to which their present
stoves and heaters are not adapted; and to en-
barrass temporarily many branches of manu-
featuring by necessitating expensive change in
boilers and furnaces. But it is reassuring to
know that whenever it shall be found advis able
TO Eubsttute bituminOus for anthracite there is
super-abundance in Western Pennsylvania

bic foreign supply at Pictou, in Nova Scotia

This dsfeEce Of GRANT BY the Utica Herald

the President has no more responsibility for

his power; and the Constitution clothes him
with power equal to that Of the whole Of one
house OF Congress and nearly two-thirds Of the
other. That is TO say, il the Senate had been
unanimous for the salary-grab, and the House
had had majority in lis favor lacking one
vote Of tWo-thirds, a veto by the President would

sound Of pistol shots, several being fred at inter-

proceeded, It was ascertained that the commo-
lion was produced by an irate and outraged hus-
band who had come upon his wife and her part
ner in guilt, physician Of the place, haVrante
delicto, and promptly opened FIRE upon both.
One shot took effect in the thigh Of the man, un-

tol, single barreled affair, was discharged, il
was reloaded again and again. The woman ran

At meeting of the vestry of ST. Pauls
Church the following resolutions were adopted,
with vote that they be published in the secu-
lar papers of the city, the Diocesan paper and
the Churchman:
Forasmuch as it has pleased Almighty God,
in the wisdom of His divine and mysterious
providence to remove from us by death under
circumstances of melancholy sadness, our dear
ly beloved friend and brother, Rev. Nathaniel
VIM. Taylor Root, Rector of this Parish, who
for nearly five years has administered at its al
tar the blessed sacraments of the church of
God, and proclaimed to us the consultations of
the Gospel in the living truths of Christ Jesus
ResOlUed That with hearts oppressed with
grief and sorrow we deeply lament the loss of
our deceased Rector, who has been so firmly
endeared to us from the commencement of his
labors with this parish; by his unwearied activ-
ity for its temporal and spiritual prosperity; by
his loving kindness of heart by his generou.
sympathy of feeling, and by his devotion to the
cause of that church in whose service he had
80 faithfully ministered.
heSotued. That we shall always cherish the
remembrance OF our intercourse with MIN DUR
ing the official relations that existed between
us, and we will with sadness treasure the
strength of those affectionate ties which have
by death been so suddenly broken.
PesoI,ed. That although in this bereavement
we mourn the loss of one who was so cherished
in the affections of the people of the church in
which he labored, and of the community in which
he dwelt, we rejoice to believe that our dear de-
parted friend and Rector has received the re-
ward of his labors on earth, and in the COM
munion of the Catholic church and the conf
dence OF certain faith, has entered into his
heavenly rest
ResolUed, That to the bereaved family of our
late Rector we tender the heartfelt sympathy of
this Vestry and Parish, assuring them of our
prayers to Almighty God, that they may be
comforted by the consultations of the Father,
and of his son, Christ Jesus

AT meeting of the Directors of the Mer-
chants National Bank of Portland, holden at
their Banking Room, on Tuesday, December
3lst, 1872, the death of RENSSELAER, Cram, ESQ.,,
having been announced, the following was
unanimously agreed upon as an expression of
the sincere sorrow of the Board on this occa-
sion.
Deeply feeling the loss sustained by the man.
agement of this Bank in the sudden death of
our late President Rensselaer, Cram, ESQ.,, the
Directors order to be entered ON their records
this minute of their respect for the memory of
their late associate and friend.
Faithful, conscientious and prudent, he was,
at all times, wise counsellor and an efficient
executive officer. His life was an example of
in one individual of an incompatible integrity,
genial disposition and an indefatigable en-
ergy, all of which made his services invalua-
BILE to the Bank and bound fast his associates
in close affection to himself
Feeling his death not only as an irreparable
loss to the business men of Portland, but es-
pecially as personal bereavement to ourselves,
we record no words of eulogy, but simply here
by express our heartfelt sorrow that we are no
more to have with US our warm hearted, true
and faithful friend. rendering to the family
of our beloved associate our warmest sympa-
thy, we direct that copy of this record be
transmitted to them, and that the Board do
now adjourn to attend, with the officers of the
Bank, the funeral of its lamented President.
