correspondent Of the Philadelphia Times
says of the coIored Senator from Miss

tends to stand by the Civil Rights Bill,
and proves it by employing white men
to wait on him, and furthermore declares
that he has no objection to Mrs. Bruce
associating with the wives of white SEN

are above reproach. and they have com

And now the Cincinnati Enquirer d,

And now the Cincinnati Enquirer de-
cares:
There is no gold standard of value. and
has not been since the Legal Tender Act
was passed in 1862. Gold il not used as
currency except in paying Custom-house
duties. When the importations for o
day or week or month are large, then
gold is at higher premium. When they
are small the premium is reduced. In
short. gold is nothing but commodity
depending for its value-like any other
commodity-upon the law of supply and
demand. The greenback dollar is sub
ject alone to fluctuations which result
from the rise and fall OF public conf.
dence in the stability and permanence OF
the nation. 1t, and not gold, is the
standard of value.
1t is curious how enamored the infa
tionists have become of the pretty crisT
greenback that was % abhorred when Il
first came cut. Now they hug it and de
clare It's preferable to gold. Well, may
be it is, but every one has MT found il
out yet.

thieves and gather them into the arms of
Justice. To be successful it was though
best to make the descent on all parties con-
cerned, and so warrants were obtained from
Alderman Fuller and the officers of the
law made surprising swoop On the thieves
and brought them to the Lackwanna Val
ley Hotel in this city where they were de-
tanned until their appearance before Alder
man Fuller, after which they were trans
ferred to Wilkes-Barre. The details of the
manner in which the detectives conducted
their preliminary operations are within our
knowledge, but it is better by far to sup
press them, because while they are un-
doubtedly interesting, they can serve no
good at present and would only expose
innocent persons to the wrath Of those who
have figured in this story.
THE DETECTIVES
who travelled the mystery of this COM
plicated plot, are deserving of the high
est degree of praise. To their remarkable
knowledge of human nature, their excellent
strategic ability, and their untiring energy
is due the fact that the leading characters
have been arrested without any undue
demonstration of violence, or any unneces-
sary shedding of blood. They were all armed
however, and if the worst came to the worst,
would doubtless teach the participants in
this desperate game a lesson that would

WHERE MUCH OF THE SOFT COAL COMES

BRADFORD, Pa, Feb. S.-The town of
Bradford is situated at almost the center
of the northern tier OF towns of Mexican
county, and border on Cattaraugus county,
N Y. Bradford borough is located very
nearly in the center of the township, Of
which it is the business center.
A richer county than Mexican there is
not in the state Its beds of coal are ex-
tensive, and all very rich in bitumen, max
ing the coal of great worth for heating pur-
poses where cleanlinesssis not cared for
such as producing steam in locomotives and
stationery engines. For household purposes.
however, it is disgreeable and uncleanlv
The engines Of the western division Of the
Erie Railroad are supplied at the shutes
at CarralltOn with coal from quite exten-
siye mines about Il miles south Of Brad
ford. 4 corporation called the Buffalo
Coal Company have made extensive ar
rangements for mining coal in another part
Of the county, which the Mexican & 3 BaiIIiala
Railroad, now being rapidly built, win
transport to Buffalo and other points of
market. These beds of coal lie in the great
central coal basin Of PENNSYLVANIA, and are
probably, a continuation Of the more south
crn deposits. The coal producing territory
of this county has never been thoroughly
developed ors'ccouHt Of the lack Of flcili-
ties for transportation, until within a year

In prospecting for coal large deposits of
iron ore have been found which are said to
be very rich, yielding over 80 per cent
This as with the coal, has never received
the attention it would have on account OF
lack of transportation, and owing to the
| fact that the attention of most of the popu-
lation has been given to numbering, in clear

gany and Ohio rivers the vast forests Of
pine and hemlock abounding in that region

five hundred million feet of pine annually,
and nanufactGrcs nearly as much into

in coa1, iron and lumber, bat also in oil,
having some very rich oil territory, and for
the pleasure seeker, be he hunter or fisher
nlan, there is no better field for the sport

Broom-Corn.

DR.. Franklin introduced broom-corn into
our country While examing a corn whisk
(importcd) he accidently discovered a sing
lie seed, which he planted in his garden,
and from which the corn was propagated
Massachusetts was formerly the only State
where the raising of this corn aud the
manufacture of brooms was carried on to
any great extent, and Boston was the great
distributing point for the manufactured
goods. Now there is scarcely an acre de-
voted to broom-corn culture in New Eng
land, as since the war farmers have raised
tobacco in its place. Illinois is the largest
grower of broora-corn at present, Ohio and
New York coming next, and Chicago and
Cincinnati.are the centres of business, while
New York is the great depot of fmanufac-
tured goods I
