THE COAL TEADK.-We have nothing I'M
~ rtant TO add TO our last weekly report Of
the anthracite coal trade. The over apply
OF coal that caused suspension OF mining
stu continues, and pretty much all bust
ness connected with the trade continues now
as week ago. Prices have not been ad-
vaDced In Consequence OF suspension. nor Is
IL probable that they will be during the
present winter. There IS some little mining
OF coal in the Dehigh coal region and any
prospect or material reduction of the pre-
sent output will stimulate production. But
at present the coal trade is very Quiet. TIE
quantity of anthracite sent from all the re-
glons for the week was but 2i2.440 tons and
OF bituminous 50 ,032 tons, being a total OF all
KIDS OF Z.l,4s2 tons, against l52, St2 tons in
corresponding week last year, being an in
crease OF li3 $50 tons OF anthracite and of
1910 tons of bituminous, and a total IN
crease OF i23 GO tons. The quantity sent
nom all the regions so far this year is

BRUTAL OUTRAGE IN ROCKINGHAM, VA.
A dispatch TO the Richmond Journal, dated
Harrisonburg, December %, says: AS two
young girls of highly respectable parents
were on their way 10 school near McGaheys-
vile, Va, they were stopped by a mulatto
negro, and the elder, about fifteen years of
age, despite her cries, was dragged 10 a body
OF woods near by and brutally outraged.
The younger girl Immediately ran Off 10 give
the alarm, but before assistance could be
rendered the fiend had accomplished his in
fernal purpose and escaped. A party OF
young men armed themselves with shot guns
and Immediately went in pursuit, but at the
latest accounts the negro was still at large.
If caught, the probabilities are favorable for
a short, swift and speedy end for the scoun =

snugly covered up and slowed away in the
enjoyment OF his usual mornings nap. The
little infant was found screaming cOnvul-
sively and covered with blood. A pet cat,
that had evidently run at the sound OF foot
steps, was found under the bed, blood being
upon his throat and fore legs. Two thoughts
preseGt-one to care for the baby, the other
10 go for the cat. The cat order was prompt
ly obeyed. "Of with his head" The baby,
being washed. presented CHASTITY sight.
One arm, shoulder, face, eye, and one side of
the head were terribly scratched, and the
skin upon the head so torn and lifted as 20
expose the skull DIR. Hankins was called in.
and the little fellow is now doing well, with
