A New Coal Region.

John }. Owens, geolOgist, who has been
on tour of inspection in st. Lawrence and
Franklin counties, N. Y, has discovered a
superior quality of hard coal in a range of
mountains situate on the easterly side of
the st. Regis river in Franklin county. He
states that this coal bed is eight feet deep,
and he has succeeded in tracing the lead
over 81 milos. He has also discovered ex-
tenslve beds of iron ore, copper, etc. The
development of these mines will be of in
calculable benefit to the business interests
of Northern New \ ork. The Pittsburgh
Republican says

news which has been published in North

THE VOTE ON THE PRESIDENTIAL
TERM

The national house of representatives, as
our readers are aware, voted, Tuesday, on
three several propositions to amend the
constitution Of the United States
relative TO the term of Office of the presi.
dent and vice-president. We have but
just received the statement of the votes
thereon, by yeas and nays, and, therefore,
propose to call attention to the peculiari-
ties thereof as disclosed by the votes, par
ticularly of the representatives from Yer.
mont and the other New England states.
The first proposition was one by Mr..
Reagan of Texas, limiting the term of Of
flee Of president and vice-president, after
March A, 1881, to six years. and providing
that no person who has held or may here
LATTER hold the office of president shall
ever thereafter be eligible to said office"
1t will be seen, at a glance, that, although
the proposition Is speciously worded and
fair on its face, it is Objectionable in seve-
raj respect. Only two of these objection
able features need be noted. If adopted,
its effect would be that the president,
elected this year, would be Ineligible to re-
election and he, alone, would be singled out
and limited to a term of four years-all of
his predecessors having been eligible to, at
least, two terms of four years each, and
his successors to a term Of six years. BY
it vice-president, succeeding to the office
OF president day before the expiration of
his term, would be forever ineligible to the
presidency.
30 manifest is the injustice of this. that
the proposition could never receive the ia
vorable endorsement of the states, and IL
would seem worse than useless to submit a
constitutional amendment to the several
states, for the mere purpose of submitting
1t, without the least probability of its rati-
tication. The proposition secured seventy
one votes one hundred and eighty-four
representatives voted against it; and thirty
-Four were recorded as absent or not voting.
Charles II. Joyce, George W. Hendee, and
Dudly @. Denison of Vermont voted In the
negative, and with them were the entire

AT the suggestion of the centennial COM

newspapers at Philadelphia. 1t is proposed
to put up building 90 feet in length and
Al IN width, and furnish 1t with enough
cases, containing 100 pigeon holes each, to
hold all the s, 900 periodicals published in
the United States. A room is to be fitted

The Simmons, Rutchery.

Friday, Mr.. Patrick Meighan, the keep
er of the saloon on North Second street,
near Fourth, Brooklyn, at which Kretz or
Fuchs, the murderer of Simmons, stayed to
take drink when he was carrying part of
his victims body to its place Of deposit on
the flats OF Newtown Creek, visited him in
Jail. AS he approached the door Kretz
heard his voice and saluted him, extending
two fingers through the grating at the same
time, with "Oh, Pat !" Mr.. Meighan
shook the fiogers, and abruptly asked
"What did you kill that man for?"
Krciz replied, "Pat, l think him play
tricks with my wife long time He play
tricks when he leave me at work and say
he 60 wash. He send me out for beer,
and come back and catch him, and / kill
him. God damn him"
"But, said MIR. Meighap, "that was no
reason that you should cut him up. What
did you do that for?"
Kretz drew long breath, and then with
touch of his former vivacity, replied, 81
skin him, l kill him twice, God damn
him."
Fuchs dependency at the inquest is at
tribued to his forced abstinence from alco

occupied by a very quiet family named

Mr.. Bertsch said that both himself ant

heard no unusual noise beneath them. HI
also stated that either on Friday or Satur
day morning Mrs. Bertsch saw blood stain
on the seat of the closet and complained t
him about it, saying it was her turn L

such stains. Neither of them though
more of the stains. and for that reaso
they did not say anything about it.

Rev. Leonard Bacon, d, D., of New
Haven, has written an "open letter" urging
the several churches and ministers
without charge" who have been invited
to participate in the Plymouth advisory
council, to attend and take part therein.
He says that only 10 this way can the
council BE- prevented from being one
sided, partisan affair. We trust that the
suggestion may be needed With him we
believe that the danger is that those who
have disapproved of the action either of
Mr.. Beecher or of Plymouth church will
reject the invitation and, il SO, that the
council will be ''helplessly one-sided," its
advice lightly needed, and its proceedings
q and results will have dangerous tenden-
cy." We know not what are the opin-
ions o. the churches of Vermont, who have
been invited, relative TO Mr. Beecher, but
trust that they will all attend by pastor
and delegate.
