ed that be was not killed by the rioters,
but his death resulted from an acci>
dent. Knowing that the miners were
on their way to Upper Lehigh, and in
asmuch as the dispatch announcing his
death gave 10 particulars. the supposi-
tion naturally arose that he was killed
by the rioters. 1t is reported that an
effort was made to throw one uf the
passenger trains off the track to-day be-
tween Jeddo aud Ebervale.
Pottsville, March 3I.-A grand par
ade Of the Mechanics and Working
mems Benevolent Association of Ash
land, and the Mechanics and Laborers'
Benevolent Association from Gordon
and lIeckscherville took place at Ash
land this afternoon. About 500 men
were in line, who expressed themselves
as determined to stand out to the last.
AT 7 p. NJ. rioting began in the street
opposite the Repplier House. Chief
Burgess Gensell called out the police
force to quell the riot. The roughs
from Centralia and Patches turned on
the chief burgess and fred several shot
at him without effect.
No arrests were made, the police
fearing it wonld cause a great riot.
Great excitement prevails, and the citi-
zeDs fear there will be trouble tonight,
as there is report TO the effpc that the
blacklegs, as they are termed, at the
Mansion House, employed by the Penn
sylvania and Reading Railroad Com
pany, will be attacked.
To-day, between Locust Gap and
Alaska collieries, the train hands were
STONED and fired upon and driven from
their train. Supt. Olhauses went
to the spot and brought the train
through safely. While the societies
were on their way from Heckshereille
to Ashland and firing salute at Cor
don, one Of the men had an arm shot
OFF and another was badly wounded in
ternally by the premature discharge Of
q cannon.

J. F. HARTRANFT, Governor.
Pottsyille, March 81 Some of our
commanders af military companies left
suddenly tonight for Harrisburg to
consult with Governor Hartranft on the
situation in the Schuylkill region, and
the general impression is that troops
will be called out Immediately If for
nothing else than to protect the railroad
property.
The special police detailed along the
branch roads are insufficient to protect
the trains, collieries and their en-
ployees. The disturbance at Ashland
being quieted, nothing has transpired
there since midnight, though the citi.
zens continue on the lookout.

to dispose Of one million upon which

the ungenial weather, is far ahead of

A Mine Of Sweetness.

Generally when we hear of rich strikes
it is in the gold or silver line, but this
time it turns out to be honey pure and
sweet. A few days since, as the work.
men on the tunnel at Cajon Haas were
fauling over some rocks they came .cross
a deposit Of honey, and taking q pole
and running it into the mountain were
surprised TO find no bottom. They got n
long pole some twenty feet in length,
and were unsble to touch bottom with
that. Upon Withdrawing the pole the
honey began to run out, aud soon tubs.
buckets. and two barrels were filed, and
still it flowed. Some parties came IN
town and loaded up with barrels, and pro,
pose to make a business Of it. They put
in o charge of powder and blew off a por-
tien Of the rock, which disclosed tons
upon tons Of honey. Our informant
states that after exploring it from below
to where the bees are found to enter, it
was found to be about ons-fourth Of =
mile, and 1t is his opinion that the whole
cavity is filed with honey. He ssti>
mates over 100 tons in sight, and be
lieves that 1000 tons would not lie an
unfair estimate. The immense deposit
cannot be equalled by any ever found.
According to the above estimate it would
take every barrel and hogshesd in San
Bernardino to hold it.-San BeraardnO

Texas is in favor Of repeating that pro.
vision of the present fundamental law

Mr. Ed ior:-Everything is quiet in
our little town. There seems to be moth
ing to create On excitement.
Several important suits were decided
In Chancery last week. There seems to be
a very great excitement ir regard to the
new county among the people living in
the sections it is to embrace. The motion
to dissolve the injunction in the cause was
~overuled, and a survey of the territory
ordered to be made and a census of the
voting population to be taken.
Wheat was badly injured by the raias
and merchants are refusing to buy a good
deal of it on this account. Still the far
,ners are cheerful, as the corn crop is
very promising.
The difficulties existing between the
parties having control of the L. T. & w.
n. G. Railroad. have all been amicably
and satisfactorily adjusted, and is to be
completed in n short time. 1t is to be
sincerity hoped that there will rise no more
barriers to impede its progress or hinder
its completion, There is very great
desire on the part of the people that it
should be built.

MOB LAW.
A FAILURE.

The prospect just now to secure im>
migration in Tennessee is rather gloomy.
II is sad for those who have been work.
ing so faithfully in the interest of the
whole people to have all their hopes and
prospects killed just at the time they
were expecting their efforts in this d.
rection to be crowned with success. And
10 know that men who care nothing for
the improvement of the country, and
good society in their own neighbo-hoods
are the parties who have been guilty of
taking the laws in their own hands. is dis
heartening and we might say distressing.
Mob law as it has been enforced in several
places in the State during the last month
would keep away any respectable family
that contemplated a home in our State.
When the time comes that the laws Of State
cannot be enforced by the Courts it will
then ne time for the citizens TO take these
matters in their own hands, but as it is
now. that criminals are punished and
murderers hung when found guilty, it is
certainly damaging to the whole State
for the citizens to be guilty Of such acts
as have recently taken place at Athens,
Knoxville, Murfreesbsro', Nashville, 30.
Those Of our citizens who have been
spending their time and money to secure
immigration can now go at some others
business, as further efforts at present
will be time and money spent for moth,
