The Wilkosbarre Times says: Zone OF
our reporters visited the scene of the recent
mine disaster, near plymouth, on Monday
morning. Proceeding through the tun-
mel and slope about 900 feet into the noun
tain, he found couple of miners loading a
car with coal, and was Informed that they
were removing the remains OF large pillar
which had been crushed by the recent con-
vulsion. What was singular in regard 10
the demolition of this column OF solid coal
seventy-fve to one hundred feet, was rent
asunder by some extreme pressure from oe-
low. The railroad track had been crowd
ed up to the top OF the slope, height OF
some eight feet, and was packed as closely
as is possible to convince. The coal was
rendered as fine as il it had passed through
a breaker, and some was fairly lpulveriz-
ed. The whole fall of rock at the Chauncey
and Grand Tunnel mines estimated at
about one hundred acres, forty acres over
the Chauccv and sixty 10 seventy at the
Grand Tunnel. Mr.. Aibrightson, who
has a mind experience of sixty years, and
Mr.. Roberts, who has been actively engag-
ed IN mines for nearly fifty years, pro-
nounced this to be the most extensive cave
in of a mine ever before heard in the world.
The cause of the unexplained fall must re-
main for a long time II myetecy, and it is
possible that it will never be satisfactory
accounted for, except upon the theory
that an earthquake was the moving
powern

$50 wearisome condition of humanity ~
How many wretched homes in our land
How many heart-broken invalids Life
with many signifies a mere onerOus exis-
tence. All are subject to disease, but when
health is removed the hope is nearly gone
out. Sickness is usually incurred through
exposure or carelessness. Especially is
this true with those diseases peculiar to
woman. Through her own imprudence
and folly she is made to drag out u miser-
able existence-a source OF annoyance and
anxiety TO her friends, and anying but q
comfort and pleasure to herself. Exposure
to the cold at times when she should be
most prudent, and overtaX;ng her body
with laborious employment, are both fruit
ful cause of many of the maladies from
which she suffers. Gradually the bloom
leaves her cheeks, her lips grow ashy white,
her vivacity departs, she continually eX-
perience feeling of weariness and general
languor, and altogether presents a ghostly
appearance. What does she need Should
she take some stmulationg drug, which
will for the time make her ''teel Jetter"' or
does her entire system demand reparatlonp
She requires something which not only will
restore to health the diseased organs, but
will tone invigorote the system. DIR.
Pierce's Favorite Prescription will do this.
1t imports strength to the diseased parts
brings back the glow of health, and re-
stores comfort where previously there was
only suffering.
Every invalid ladyishould send for 1.-The

E;sad lFd"eH:
Complaint has been made
all over the country against the law enfOrc-
ing the prepayment of two cent postage
on newspapers, and numerous petitions
have already been presented to Congress
for its repeal. On Tuesday of last week
Hon. JOHN b. PACKER
introduced bill, (H. r. 1881 which con-
templates the repeal of this obnoxious law,
and fixes the rate Of postage on third class
matter the same as it was previous to the
enactment of the present law. As Chair
man of the Committee on Post Offices, &c,
Mr. Packer earnestly advocated the pas
sage of the law whereby newspapers are
transmitted free through The mails IN coun-
ties where published, and to him, more than
