The Riotous Coal Miners.
HAzELToN, Pa March 8

Another crowd Of armed men started
from Ebervale for the Upper Lehigh to
stop the men employed by the Jersey
Central railroad from loading coal at that
place A special train has left here with
a detachment OF police armed and
equipped, to resist any attempt q.
violence by the mob. The result Of this
raid is awaited with great anxiety. Our
local police is too small to contend with
the exasperated miners, and call for the
military is expected.
A dispatch from the Upper Lehigh
announces the killing of MIR. McDermott,
one of the bosses there. Last night coffin
hand bills were served on men obtaining
coal for boilers at Rekley colliery. The
whole region is in state of great ex.
element, and the feeling is general that
property and lives are at the mercy oil
these reckless men.

The Holy Land at Present.

During this season of sacred festivals
the latest information from the Holy Land
conveying, as it does much relating to
the region as field for residence and
immigration, reads very curiously. 1t
was elicied by Sir Moses Montefiore, the
wealthy London jew, who desired to ben
eft the people Of his nation who have
settled, or might wish to, round about
Jerusalem. One writer states that there
is some extensive, fertile and wcll-water
ed land on the roadway between Jerusa-
lem and Hebron, and he says that this
could be adapted for the reception OF poor
families and the water could be made
available for working mills and factories.
Another affirms that there is similar
fruitful territory at Rama, the birthplace
Of Samuel, and he adds that at Hebron
there is land which already produces corn,
wine, oil, silk and cotton, mineral waters,
salt and actually coal. We also learn
that there are many fertile and irrigated
regions in Galiee. The trouble, however,
in the agricultural development of the
Holy Land, lies in the fact tina. among
the natives there not one man in hun
dred knows how to pillow or plant for
they arc for the most part artisans There
is great need Of capital, which, if it could
only be supplied at a rate of five per cent,
would give very satisfactory returns. A
proper system of apprenticeship for the
boys of Jerusalem-who are said to be
quite precocious-is also recommended,
aud an effort TO this end is now actually
being made Oh the Joppa farm. The
Bedouins are troublesome in some sections
but the requisite assistance can be obtain.
ed from the Turkish Government. Thus
we see that the Holy Land begins to be
talked about and prospected very much
like the newly.opened regions Of our own

A Champion Walkist.

The Rutland Globe gives the following
description of the fcats in pedestrianism
accomplished by Deputy u. f. Jameson,
who has been spending some time in this
section organizing oranges of the Patrons
of Iiusbandry " In the morning he was
in Pawlet, and over the sloshy roads of
that spring day walked twelve miles, to
Middletown, before noon In the after.
noon he walked two miles more, and in
the evening organized grange at Mid
dletown, and was on his feet until half
past ten PM. 1t was necessary to be in
Rutland to take the 6 40 train the next
morning. No team could be procured to
put him on the 10. 40 train at Poultney,
eight miles away-nether to carry him
part Of the way on to Rutland direct So
at midnight he started for Rutland, fifteen
miles, on foot, over a road entirely new
to him, climbing out of Nliddletown TO.
ward Tnmouth, and then over the hill
through Ira 1t was very tolerabe
walking in the moonlight until within
about two miles Of West Rutland. when
the moon was obscured and the muddy
roads became hardened to bubbles, and
the miles seemed long. Some persons
may have heard rappings at the door at
West Rutland, and afterward at Center
Rutland, as information was sought in
regard TO routes. At last, with feet al
most paralyzed by continuous humping
on the now frozen ground, Rutland was
reached at 500 AM, making twenty.nine
miles walked in the twenty-four hours,
and only about eleven hours was used on
the road. He reached his appointment
at New Haven Mills in time to aid in the
convention of patrons there assembled.

B6S- The latest intelligence from the
Keystone state is about equally divided
between accounts of damages by the
floods and the mining troubles, though
the labor strikes have the zest of the
greater excitement. There are numer-
Gus strikes among the various collieries.
and the miners collect in mobs, arming
themselves and attempting by violence
to prevent other laborers from working.
Some very bad cases of rioting and VIC

proceed TO such extent by the authori-

This post has been offered by the premier
to his loyal and faithful private secretary,
Montague Cory, who. however has
declined it. Mr.. Cory, on the death of
an old aunt, will come into large
fortune; he is therefore beyond want,
and he is quite devoted to Mr.. Disraeli,
going about with him everywhere and
treating him like son. The other
appointment is that of clerk of the privy
council, vacant by the death Of Sir Arthur
Helps. 1t is probable that this will be
bestowed upon Theodore Martin, the well

the Queen, and is the author of the Life

PoLyGAMY TRIAL AT SALT LAKE CITY
The trial of George Reynolds, for poly.
gamy, was concluded April |. The de.
fence admitted the first marriage. The
second wife swore she was married to
defendant in August last. and Mayor
Wells corroborated it, stating that he had
performed the ceremony. The jury,
which is composed of Mormons and non
Mormons, were then charged by Judge
Emerson, who quoted the lawof 1862. lie
said that religious belief had nothing to
do with the case, and that the law was
constitutional. The jury, after thirty
minutes consultation, brought In ver-
dict Of guilty. The defense moved to
set aside the verdict, for the reason that
the defendant had never been arragned
and asked to plead, and never had the
Indictment read to him, which appearing
to the satisfaction of the court, the mo.
ton to set aside was granted. After.
ward the defense waived new trial.
with view Of taking the case 10 the
Supreme Court: The defendant was af.
terward arraigned and plead not guilty,
and was set at liberty on giving 5000
bail.
