TIN days ago the whole country stood
on the brink of civil war. y single hour
of irresolution on the part of President
Grant and the tragedy of 1861 would have
been re-cnacted. Had Democrat, divi-
ded in his duty between his country and
his party convictions, been IN the Prcsi-
dental chair, the land today would almost
surely have been wrapped in the flames of
war. Let US see to it in November that
we DO oar personal duty in avoiding the
very possibility Of such danger. Let
PENNSYLVANIA return resolute Republican
Congressman in every district, and elect

The people Of TiOga and bradford cOun-
ties are now agitating the construction OF
a railroad from the head waters of the Sus-
quehauua, with the immediate view of de-
yelopng the immense btuminous coal beds
of that region, but looking ultimately to a
short line from Chicago by way Of Pitts
burg to Boston.
In speaking of the coal trade, the Potts
vile Miners JouTaol says, the Associated
Coal Companies have announced an ad-
vance of fifteen cents per ton on coal for the
month OF October. II is believed that the

in October without limiting the supply at
competing points.

Our candidate for Secretary Of Internal
Affairs, General r. B. Beath, is popular at
home. The Miners Journal thus refers to
him "That the confidence reposed in him
by the people when they elected him to this
important position was worthily bestowed,
the high character which the Office sustains
to-day, "a attestcd by the legal profession
and all who are acquitted with the very
satisfactory manner in which the duties
thereof have been discharged, is the sure
guarantee. And not only have the duties
enjoined by law been faithfully performed,
but the experience gained during his term
of office has enabled Gen. Beath to discern
many of the wants of our peculiar land
system and TO suggest and secure such leg
slation rs will hereafter render the landed
interests more secure from the adventures
who made business of taking out land
warrants for the purpose of making money
out of the equitable owners. All who
know General Beath, his rare worth, his
high moral character, his private life un-
spotted, his whole official career unstained,
will, we feel assured, agree with us, that
this honor was we'll merited, while it was
thus gracefully bestowed" We very cor
daily endorse all that is thus said of Gen.
Beath. He is in every way worthy the
confidence Of the people.

PRESIDENT GRANT, having suppressed
the New Orleans rebellion, has directed
steps to be taken that must certainly meet
every reasonable wish Of the Southern peO-
pie, SO far as Federal officers are concern
ed. When the Southern people in small
towns, bring reasonable assurances that
Federal ap20intees are untitled for their
position, or that they misuse the powers
vested in them, such officials will be remov-
ed, and others appointed who will meet
the wishes of all fair minded men. 1t is
not the Presidents wish, nor that of the
Republican party, tina; the South should
be unfairly treated bat when this is done,
it is proposed Ia permit no instructions,
or rcbelinns, whatever the pretence may
be. OF course, in making these changes,
great care will be taken not to play into the
hands of ;he ultra rebel element South.

The Black Hills are not so great after
all. Later reports are said to confirm the
opinion of Professor Winchel, who examn-
ed them, that there was no valuable min
erals in that region. Colonel Grant, who
was with the expedition under instructions
to report on the geology of the region, says
the rock on which the gold is asserted to
have been discovered is of the metamorphc
character, in which precious metals have
never been found The timber consists of
spruce and yellow pine, (?) valueless for
lumber, and there is mot enough tillabe
land for a dozen gOod-sized farms" The
Sioux Commission give similar report of
the Black Hills country.
WHILST our own exports to England are
as large as ever, and the balance of trade
still continues in our favor, those of Great
Britain are still decreasing, the total value
Of exports for August, according to the
Board of Trade returns for that month, be-
ing decrease Of about ten per cent. from
the value Of the corresponding month in
1873, the decline showing itself in nearly
all the leading articles of export. The value
of cotton piece goods exported exhibits a
decrease CT nearly ~, 900, 900, of iron more
than 3, ,0O0, 900, and of wooden and worstcd
goods more than Sl,000OOO. No wonder
the English free traders are so anxious for
the adoption of the proposed Canadian Re-
ciprOcity treaty.
