n VERY DULL COAL MARKET il again our
report and the only special feature in il for
me iasi week to date Is a steady preparation
for closing out production IL is usual to
stop work at about twO-thirds of the mines
by the 10th OF December, but already. ON q At
GrSiay evening last, the ID instant fully one
half the mines had stopped, and before the
end OF the present week less than the usual

caused mainly by the want of orders for coal
and i'm some part by threatened closing OF
navigation on the smaller rivers and creek.

from the Wilmington IN. c. star.I
For good many years the South has
been condescendingl spoken OF by
Northern writer's and speakers as
'provincial," (" sectional" ''illiterate. ="
Southern authors have been ignored, or
damned with hardly audible praise,
while almost every poetaster or sketch
driveler OF New England and New York
has been made to assume the position
of q prominent writer. Southern states
men have been styled "impracticable"
because they are gentlemen, and not
rogues nor mouthing fanatics. South
ern lawyers have been ridiculed or qui-
etlv ignored because they are unknown
in "the centres of intelligence and ac-
ton" All Southern thinkers have been
"abstractionists, :" all Southern men OF
action 'rebellious lunatics," and every
thing and everybody that did not pro-
ceed from the land Of the anointed and
elect have met with whitening rupu-
diation or cold shrug Of the shoulder.
For all this lofty assumption the
writer's Of the South have steadily i'm.
proved in numbers, quality OF style and
production the scholars OF the South
have pursued their learned studies with
sturdy zeal and wonderful self-control,
and the public and professional men OF
the South have not quailed under the
enormous burdens laid upon them. A

ing u "wild man" recently seen in the
mountains in that county: about ten
days ago Turner Helm and myself were
in the mountains about ten miles east
Of Warmers ranch on u prospecting
tour, looking for the extension Of Il
quartz lead which had been found by
some parties some time before. When
apart-the wind blowing very hard at
the time Mr.. Helm, who was walking
along looking down at the ground, sud
denly heard somebody whistle. Look
ing up he saw something sitting on u
large boulder about fifteen or twenty
PAGES from him. He supposed it
to be some kind Of an animal,
and Immediately came down
on him with his needle gun. The
object instantly rose to his feet and
proved to be man. This man appeared
to be covered all over with coarse black
hair, seemingly two or three inches
long, like the hair Of bear; his beard
and the hair Of his head were long and
thick he was a man OF medium size,
and had rather fine features not at all
like those Of an Indian, but more like
an American or Spaniard. They stood
when Mr.. Helm spoke to the singular
creature, first in English and then in
Spanish, and then in Indian, but the
man remained silent He then advanced
toward Mr.. Helm, who not knowing
what his intentions might be, agsp
came down on him with the ggHna onee ae's
him at a distance. The M. prS,iIao h,,. was
