est and one of the most reliable labor pa
pers in the country. A. G. Cameron, the
editor and proprietor, has had as much ex-
Perience in the labor movement as any
man in America. His opinion upon ali
subjects connected with the social, mora,
and political advancement Of the produc-
ing masses have for a long time been taken
by many of the leading reformers a. a basis
for their action. His pen has contributed
as much to the advancement of the cause
of labor as that of any man in the country.
We send copy of the ADVOCATE contain.
ing full report Of the proceedings Of the
Industrial Congress, which was held in
Cleveland, Ohio, July 10Th, to every Union
in the organization. We hope that the
proceedings will be read by the Correspond
ing Secretaries, before their respective
Unions
Many thanks, friend Fehrenbatch, for
your good opinion.

GREAT FIRE IN WINSTON coALPIT.
The Liverpool Msrcsry says On Sun
day morning, ire broke out at the HaIns-
head Collieries, Winston, in the coal down
in the mine. Efforts were made by those
on the spot to check it, but it assumed such
alarming proportions that engines were
sent for to st. Helena and Prescott. Both
arrived in short time, and the former be-
gan 10 play vigorously. Hose was passed
down the shaft, which il 220 yards deep,
and thence TO the scene Of the fire, and
every effort was made 70 arrest the flames,
which were then spreading and emitting M
intolerable heat. Unfortunately, however,
there was q scarcity Of water from whence
to pump, aud this served to partially neu-
tralize the labors Of the fremen. The
downcast shaft was used for the volume Of
water, and the upcast used for all other
communication with the mine. Up to
Monday evening there appeared to be no
diminution in the mass Of coal subject to
the fire on the contrary, it was thought
to be increasing. 1t 10 said that the flames
have extended 200 yards. Some workmsn
were down when the fire broke out, but
they were saved. The origin Of the fire ID
not exactly known.

A general meeting of mineowners was held
on Wednesday in Glasgow, to consider a
communication from the agent of the
miners delegates, declining to accept the
concessions offered at the late conference,
but proposing an arbitration on the whole
question After discussing the matter, and
under the impression that the question had
narrowed itself to certain political points,
1t was agreed to appoint small sub-com-
mittee to confer with a similar COMMITTEES
of the delegates, in the anticipation thai
these points might be adjusted without

two o'clock-Mr Lewis in the chair. A
large number Of masters we're present, and
nearly 100 delegates. After . brief dis
cussion, Mr.. Thomas, on behalf Of the col
Tiers, stated that it was the determination
Of the men Of the Aberdare and the
Rhondda Valley to work in future only BY
the ton Of 20 cwt. and ll2lb. The chair
man said that the masters would probably
consent to the alteration, but they coulc
not agree to pay the same wages as for the
ton Of "a cwt There must be reduction
in price corresponding to the reduction ii
weight. A somewhat excited discussion
ensued, the men protesting that they mus
have q definite answer. The conference
was precipitately broken up, several of tn
masters declaring that they would clos
their pits before submitting TO dictstion

WE call special attention to the editorial
clipped from the Public Ledger of Philadel-
phia, Pa. The Ledger ia looked upon a.
the most conservative Newspaper in the
United States. and while Conducted with
great ability rarely, if ever, expresses an
opinion upon public matters uatil public
opinion is pretty well formed, lence the
almost unqualified endorsement of he plat
form Of the Industrial Congress, by the
Ledger, deserves more than passing notice.
As the Ledger has daily circulation Of
nearly 100, 600, chiefly among workingmen,
We earnestly hope that the article referred
to may be the means of awakening the
mechanics of Philadelphia from the state
Of Rip Van Winkleism into which they
have apparently suck.

Mr.. Lamply accompanied his daughter
and son-in-lsw TO the theatre. Nicklason
being aware Of the fact, and knowing that
the old gentleman had . considerable sum
of money in the house, made up the plot
70 rob the house and murder the old Lady,
and sought HolIohan ~ an accomplice, who
readily assented, having but recently been
an inmate Of the Maryland State Prison,
and working with Nicklason ct the time,
they succeeded in their object, but were
soon detected by the police, and. arrested.
They moved their trial to Annapolis, where
they were convicted. just ut the time the
Jury rendered their verdict Hollahan made
desperate attempt to escape. He had
concealed about his person Hlung -shot
made with o stocking and some old iron
staples, coal and glass, with which no struck
the officers who had him in charge. In the
meantime Nicklason had already reached
the door Of the court house, when he was
Apprehended. They were safely secured,
and sentenced to be hung, and en- last Fri
day the sentence was carried out.
On Friday, the 22d Of the month, We
will have another execution here in the
city, of a colored man named West, for tie
murder of his mistress On the same day
another .colored man by the name of
Palmer, ia to be hung at Towsontown, the
county seat Of Baltimore county, about
eight miles from the city. His crime Is
rape. He was arrested at the time with
an accomplics named Prichtard. This was
about two and half years ago. Palmer
escaped from prison, and kept himself
around the lower counties Of Maryland,
and sailing upon the Chesapeake Bay until
last December, when he was discovered
and arrested, and tried, and convicted and
sentenced to be hung. Prichtard was tried
and convicted, and sentenced to be hung
about two years ago.
MORE CRIME.
On Friday, shortly after the execution,
another brutal murder was committed in
our city. A Swedish sailor killed keeper
