Coal Incline Accident.

On Monday, two coal-laden incline
cars at Coalburg, as they were leaving
the drum for the long and steep descent
to the railroad, broke clevice which
connected them with the wire drum
rope, and run down the iucline-a dis
lance of over twelve hundred feet
with almost the rapidly OF a flash OF
lightning, Having arrived at q slight
inequality OF the grade of the road, the
cars, one behind the other, and both on
on the same track, made a fearful
jump OF between two aud three hundred
feet, and after clearing the Chesapeake
and Ohio Railroad, the turnpike and
a small miners village, with tremen-
dous plunge. landed in the river, where
they now are. No further damage was
caused by the accident than the demol.
ishment of a email dump house at the
bins, and the natural breakage attend
ant upon the runaway,-Corisr.

OUR NEIGH ROEE.

a short time ago the IGtGl&gsHcer an
nounced the arrival Of the tweDty-tirst
anniversary of its establishment Our
mention OF the fact has been heretofore
omitted through mere inadvertence,
and we trust that our congratulations
now presented may be none the less
welcome by the reason OF their tardi-
ness. A newspaper is the exponent Of
the life OF the community in which it
is published. 1t fourishes or fails as
the community prospers or decays, and
as the managers Of the paper labor I'M
telligently for or ignorautly neglect the
common good. No newspaper can main
tain it's publication twenty~one years
without possessing some merit. and the
mere fact OF its continued existence is
proof that it deserves to live Without
abatiog one jot of our opposition to
the teachings OF the ItclligencCr upon
political topics or upon tue various ques'
tions''oi local policy concerning which
we have heretofore disagreed, we must
commend the general excellence of our
contemporary and acknowledge the
ability with which its views are pre-
scented.
Our enterprising neighbor has lately
fitted up and is now occupying more
commodious rooms than ever before,
and has, in the new building, one OF
the most conveniently arranged news
paper offices in the State. We trust
that the establishment may enjoy q
continuation Of the business prosperity
which has marked with annual in-
crease its history during the tweuty.one
years past

M,xnnM Of charges for freight and

MAXIMUM of charges for freight and
passenger rates under the new railroad
law of Illinois have just been promul-
gated by the Railroad Commissioners
of that State. Under the new sched-
ule where one dollar pays for freight
ing any commodity one mile, twenty
cents will carry it ten miles further,
and after the first hundred miles is
travelled the rate is only four'fiiths OF
one cent per mile for the remaining
distance, no matter how much that
may be. Passenger rates are three
cents per mile, with one hundred
pounds baggage, which is nearly one
quarter reduction. The law does not
90 into effect until the middle OF Janu-
airy, thus giving the next Legislature a
chance to alter or repeal the statute,
should its provisions Lave been found
too unpopular upon a fair practical
tr;al ...

A CORRESPONDENT OF the Country Gen.
Aenlan has discovered that, as law OF
nature, every spotted dog has the end
OF his tail white, and every spotted cat
the end Of his tell black He says he
has examined many dogs and cats in
France, England ard America, and
always noticed the same result. Our
former Minister to Japan, Mr.. Harris,
first mentioned the fact concerning the
dog in letter published some years
since. He has looked at many paint
ings of dogs in the galleries OF Paris
and elsewhere in regard to this, and
found even there the dogs spotted,
always in order, proving to him that
the artist had invariably copied after
nature.
