A London correspondent of the New York
Herald writes: I am also Informed that
there will be startling proceedings in Par
Lament on Wednesday next, when an at
tack will be made on Cardinal Manning and
the Duke of Norfolk. The Home Secretary
will be questioned respecting Cardinal Man
ning's alleged violation oflaw by comforting
the title of Arthur Magister on one, who,
by this time, claims to hold this rank in the
Catholic University College. The Home
Secretary will be also asked if the Duke of
Norfolk has violated International law BY
raising funds for German Catholic priests,
and asking what steps does the Secretary
propose to take to punish the offenders and
prevent recurrence of the facts. The Sec
retary will, probably, reply that the govern
ment cares nothing about the affair.

THE p. w, & h. IL. II.

Wilmington owes great deal to this
corporation true it is that the company's
interests were promoted while advancing
ours. In the future the wants of the rail
road will grow, and greater outlay of
money will be necessary. The company
ask City Council to aid theA, in the vaca-
ton OF certain streets, and we think no one
interested in the welfare of Wilmington
will hesitate to seek compliance with the
very reasonable request made. Our citi-
zens, save in the discrimination against
them in favor of Chester in the iu"ning of
morning trains, have no complaint against
the railroad company. Between Phila-
delphia and Wilmington, the fare is Il
cents per mile if you travel upon a trip
ticket; this is net one half the price
charged upon any other road in the world,
with like speed and accommodations. A
resident who does business in Philadel-
phia can purchase an annual ticket for
$75, good for 624 trips, or 1922 miles, at
cost Of ola cent per mile, or triAe
more for the twenty-eight miles of travel,
than an exchange ticket upon city pas
senger railroad. 1t is no niggardly trans
portation either. Upon the cars between
Philadelphia and Wilmington, every i'm
provement made in railroading promo
tive Of the safety, health, and comfort of
passengers is at once adopted, and applied
to the local trains. The cars are the per-

TME COAL OF AMERICA.

The coal fields of America, according
to the best estimates, cover an area Of
$4,000 square miles. Pennsylvania con-
tains the principal coal fields, having vast
quantities of anthracite in the eastern por
ton of the State, bituminous in the west.
eIn portion, and semi-bituminous in the
middle. From the Allegheny mountains
westward as far as the middle of Ohio,
northward distance of one hundred
miles, and southward as far as West Vir-
ginia and Tennessee, as FAR as Tuscaloosa,
Alabama, stretches one vast continuous
field of COAL measured, not by acres and
square miles, but by States. Lying far
ther west is another coal field Of vast ex-
tent, partly in Indiana, stretching across
Illinois, and projecting southwark into
Kentucky. There are other large coal
areas in Iowa, Michigan, Missouri, Ne
oraska, Kansas, Arkansas and northwest
ern Texas. Besides, there are vast stores
Of coal in Wyoming, Utah, Colorado, New
Mexico, California, Oregon, Washington
Territory, Vancouvers Island and Alas
ka. There is coal also in Massachusetts
and Rhode Island of an inferior quality.
Professor G.. B. Andrews, State Geologist
of Ohio, has contributed an interesting pa
per on the coal fields of the world, in
which he estimates the coal fields of Great
Britain to comprise l2,S0O square miles,
Prussia, $4,000; Spain, 1000; France
1000; Bohemia, 1000 and Belgium, $50,
making total of $500 square miles be-
ing l49, 800 less square miles than the coal
area of the United States.
From this it will be seen that the coal
fields of America cover an area of more
than six times the European and fifteen
times the British area. One State of the
Union alone, Texas, contains cne-ffth as
much coal as all of Europe and Great
Britain combined. The coal fields of
Nova Scotia and New Brunswick were not
included in the foregoing coal formation
estimate. Of the two last mentioned coal
fields,l Nova Scotia produces the most val
liable in respect to quality. Although
the Nova Scotia carboniferous formation
is Of enormous thickness, the amount of
available coal is relatively very small
The New Brunswick coal is of a resinous
nature, and although not true coal re-
sembIes it, and is used in the manufacture
Of gas. From the foregoing estimates of
the coal fields of the world he fact is
made manifest that the quantity of coal
contained in all the vast coal fields of this
country j. incalculable, and the possibii-
ties in connection with the future of our
manufacturing industries cannot be over
estimated. The production of bituminous
ceal largely exceeds that of anthracite.
The demand for soft coal is becoming i'm
mense, and the probabilities are that in a
few years the production of the bitumi
nous coal will donble that of the anthra-
cite. While anthracite coal beds are al
most entirely confined to Pennsylvania,
the bituminous coal beds are scattered over
almost every section of our country.

will do the most good. The housewife or
ders just enough for each person, and no
more, even to the coffee. II a chance visitor
drops in, somebody quietly retires and the
extra cup is 30 provided, but nothing is ex-

pot has boiled, the handful of charcoal in
the little range is extinguished, aud waits

little more than the one laid last week.
Values are nicely estimated, and the

Cooking is an economical as we'll as a san

"The German vote"--N il
Politics.
from the Ne,o York Herald

from TIE AeaG YORK HeTdtuj
Gen. Sigel, In the course of an interest
ing interview with one of our reporters,
explained the reasons for his support tor
Tilden, refers to the Importance OF the
German vote in this country. There are
six hundred thousand German voters In
all, he thinks, and he believes a large
majority of them will vote for Tllden.
Considering that according to Gen. Schurz
Large majority will vote for Hayes,
We may safely assume that neither OF
these gallant gentlemen know but very
little about 1t. The German newspapers
and German writer's show more energy
in the canvass than the Americans. This
Is natural as it should be- There is no
class more intelligent and impartial than
the Germans. They adapt themselves
with singular facility to our American
life, and in political matters are espec-
tally independent. 1t is, therefore, rank
imposture for so-called German leaders
to go around from camp to camp peddlng
the German vote" One would think,
to hear a hungry political German talk
when he wants an office, that he carried
the whole German vote in his pocket.
-Four years ago Carl Schurz carried the
German vote" over to Greeley-but II
went largely for Grant Now Carl
carries the German vote" back to Hayes,
andino doubt large part will go for 1ilden'
We can imagine nothing more offensive to
an honest, selfrespecting German than
to see his nation used as bid for office
This is really what it is. These 'Germar
Democratic associations and "Germar
Republican associations" are simply so
many protexts for obtaining power. They
should be frowned upon by all honorable
Germans. 1n politics we are neither lrisl
nor German Protestant nor Cath
Ole, but American all the TIM
and under all circumstances. When
> German accepts our citizenship his Eat
tionality becomes a memory to him
: memory always to be cherished as sacred
but it should never be political expe

pledged to rescue our State from its plumber
ers at any hazard. If we have the spirit of
liberty and honor which actuated our patriot
fathers in 1776 we will save our honor, res
cue our State, and transmit it the same pre-
cious and glorious birthright to our pOsteri-
ty, which has been left us by our noble an
| cestors. Men of Carolina have never been
wanting in any emergency. They will prove
| themselves equal to their present trials, and
| the time has ut last arrived for them to
work out the redemption of this State. 1t
can't will be done.
At the conclusion of tho speech Mr.. A. ].
Watt was, upon motion of Maj. Moors re-
quested to act as Secretary, and the Chair
announced the meeting ready for business.
Upon motion of E. B. Murray q committee
of five was appointed to draft constitution
for the Club, and directed to report imrnedi-
ately upon the permanent officers OF the
Club. Messrs. E. B. Murray, John B.
Moore, B. F. Crayton, DR.. R. F. Diver and
R. E. Belcler were appointed, and upon
their report the following officers were
agreed upon for permanent organization,
viz: A President, Vice-President, Recording
Secretary, Corresponding Secretary and an
Executive Committee of FIVE members. The
election of officers was then proceeded with,
and E. B. Murray, in short speech, nomi-
mated for President Mr. A. ]. Watt, which
nomination was received with enthusiasm,
and Mr.. Watt was unanimously elected.
Mr.. Hoyt nominated for Vice.President Mr..
N. K. Sullivan, who was also unanimously
elected. DR.. W. G. Brown nominated Mr..
John L. Williams for Recording Secretaiy
and Mr.. J. L. Tribble nominated Mr.. R. L.
Moorhead for Corresponding Secretary, each
of whom were unanimously elected Upon
motion of Prof. w. J. Ligon, the President
was authorized to appoint the Executive
Committee at his leisure.
Mr.. Murray then made q few appro-
pirate remarks and introduced Mr.. A. ].
Watt the permanent President, to the audi
ence. Mr.. Watt made short, eloquent and
patriotic speech, in which he declared the
day of coalition was past, and the only re-
demption for our State lay in determined
and united effort to rescue our government
from the hands of the thieves who now con-
troll it. Upon motion the meeting adjourn
ed to Friday night, the 4th of February, at
II o'clock, at which time the report of the
committee on constitution will be had.
The meeting was exceedingly harmonious,
and evinced great interest and determination
in the cause. There was no shadow of
spirit o: compromise displayed in it. There
are about one hundred names upon the roll
of the Club, and it is confidently e1pectedto
have much larger number by the next
meeting

ANOTHER ROBBERY.

A daring robbery was perpetrated in oul
midst on Sunday last, which should prove
warning to persons living on the outskirts
of town especially. The premises of Mrs. G
Brown, who lives on the Rocky River road
Just beyond the corporation limits, was tht
scene of the robbery, which for boldness
and daring is unequalled in the history Of
our community. Mrs. Brown and her three
sons left the house between ten and half
past ten o'clock on Sunday morning, and
one of the young men returned about one
o'clock, when he made the discovery that
the rooms had been pillaged, but was unable
to fix upon the extent of the robbery.
Trunks were open, and their contents
thrown about the rooms, and there was
every evidence that the house had been
plundered. When other members OF the
family arrived, it was entertained that the
principal loss consisted in the sum of fifty
three dollars, which was taken from pocket
book belonging to Mr.. Feaster Brown IN
one of the trunks. The house was entered
from the rear, and the thief escaped by the
front, in both instances taking out window
sash to accomplish his purpose. The sash
were carefully set aside BY him, aud were
not broken. When it is remembered that
Mrs. Browns residence is within short
distance of road much frequented, and that
this robbery took place between eleven and
twelve o'clock in broad daylight, the bold
ness of the villain becomes apparent.
Suspicion rested upon a colored man
narned Toney Jennings, and he was arrested
on Sunday afternoon, but stoutly denied his
guilt. The evidence against him is mainly
circumstantial, but couple Of negro boys
(ths eldest about ten years of age) assert that
they saw him come out of the house through
the front window, and that he threatened to
kill them in case they told about seeing him
on the place. He was taken before Trial
Justice Hammond, and after @ preliminary
examination was committed to jail to an
swer the charge at the ensuing term OF
Court. Toney is an old offender against the
laws, and was tried some years ago for
placing distractions upon the Blue Ridge
Railroad. He has always been considered
light-fngered, we believe, and no one who
knew him will be surprised at the accusa-
ton in this instance.
