THE situation among the coal
fields OF Eastern Pennsylvania is
terrible beyond the power of words
to express or thoughts to conceive
The troubles began several months
ago, and have been getting worse
and worse ever since. Tue lnine-
owners proposed reduction OF 20
per cent. III wages, as compared
with 1874. 1t was quite too heavy
IL fail to be accepted. Either the
wages OF last year were very much
too high, or the reduction proposed
was very much too great. 1.-The
Molly Maguires' are desperate.
Neither the posse OF Sherills nor
the State militia can cope with
them. The capital, according to
recent STATISTICS, Invested in the
mines, and the various appliances
for working them and marketing
their products, is over $500, 100000.
The entire business Of large sec
ton of country is PROSTATE The
annual product is estimated as
worth over SlOO,OOO,0OO. The cor
porations owning the mines ought
to deslot from their unreasonable
attempt to cut down the compensa-
ton vi the miners 20 per cent, ana
meet them with a fair and equitable
compromise.-Ch icago Jon1.ut.

Legislature Corruption.

There was furry in the legislature, last week, about charges of corruption in that body made by MT. Tucker, a-eporter of the New Haven Palladium. Much yir- tuous indignation was indulged in by va rious speakers and Mir. McMahon, of New Milford, moved his expulsion from the floor of the House. Finally a committee of investigation was appointed and Mir. Tucker offered them list of names to be called as witnesses. The committee asked him to produce his own witnesses, claim ing that they had no right to send for persons and papers. There the matter seems to rest.
 Legislative examinations like this sell dom develope anything, and very possibly there is not much to develope. The Pal ladium charges the corruption specially upon members from this Congressional District, and, from the reputation of some of the Litchfeld county lobby, we do not wonder at the charge. Everyone knows they would not scruple to use money cor ruptly and that they are probably paid money with the expectation that they will bribe members with it. Still 1t by no means follows that they can accomplish what is expected of them. Circumstances have conspired with per haps some basis of fact to give Litchfield county bad reputation in this regard for many years past. In the old fights about bridging the Connecticut, charter ing Parallel railroad, and removing the Capital from New Haven, Litchfeld county was neutral. It furnishes about a sixth of the whole members of the House, and as a natural consequence became the battle ground of the contending factions. It developed a tremendous native lobby, and perhaps some legislative rings who learned how to market their votes at a pretty high figure ;-at least we have heard pretty loud rumors of such pro- ceedings in times past. That any large number of the members from this or any county are, or ever have been, approach able, no sensible man believes. Still these legislative rings have g wonderful power of self-perpetuation, and if there are any left over anywhere, we should expect to find them among our Litchfeld county representatives

TO CORRESPONDENTS.

Being desirous of giving every encouragement to ,s-.ons favoring us with local news make the fol- owing prOpostious regular and occasional corres pondents:
 1-To each regular correspondent sending items each week. we will send five copies of the Enquirer reesrlv addressed either to the correspondent auah persons he direct, not already subscribers We viii also pay all postage on commnnicasons S either by quarterly remittances if preferred.
 a-To each regular correspondent sending items as often as once in two weeks we will send three copies of fbe Enquirer and postage, as above.
 3-T0 each regular correspondent sending items as often once in four weeks we VIII send regular copy A-ReguIar correspondents sending items less fre- auentIy than once e month will receive copy of the Enquirer, subject to stoppage whenever we may con- eider their communications too few, of too little im portance, to warrant it's continuance.
 5-To reQular and occasional correspondents extra comics Inf inc paper containing communications of spe- cial importance, will be sent on request, without charge.
 Local items from reliable in any part of the county will be received with pleasure, but we are par rcularIy desirous of increasing list of regular we kIy and fortnighty correspondents, especially in places like New Milford. Kent. Cornwall Falls Village, wolcottviIe Harwinton and other localities not ade- auatey represented in columns aud we hope also to hear from persons furnishing only occasional
 REQUIREMENTS AND SUGGESTIONS.
 Anonymous communications cannot expect publi- cation.
 The names of correspondents will be kept strictly secret, if desired. =. Communications of a personal nature will not be published unless the proprety of such publication is manifest.
 Manuscript should be written only on one side of the paper.
 Regular correspondents avoid all danger of hav- ing the contributions of others attributed to them by assuming some signature, single letter being sufi1- cient.
 In case of two communications relating to the same event, the fullest will usually be published. Hence communications never come amiss. even from places where we have regular correspondents since they often give valuable additional information.
 simple statement of facts is all that is necessary and hastily written communications will be corrected before publication.
