SLAVE AND FREE TRADE
COTTON

Twelve crops of cotton have been
raised by free labor, and the comparison
of the returns with an equal number of
crops before the war shows some inter
esting results. The period of free labor
| may properly be divided into two por-
/ tions-the first,t including four years dur
ing which the crops of 1865 to 1868, both
inclusive, were made, and in which the
labor system was greatly disorganized;
the second, including eight years, 1860 TO
1877, when free labor was fairly well Or
ganiZed. If we divide the twelve crops
preceding the war in the same manner
we shall get the following results

Alabama, with coal train of forty
cars, on the Lehigh Valley railroad, was
passing through the lower section of
Shenandoah her boiler exploded with a
fearful shock, seriously scaldng and
wounding Tim M'Carty, a brakeman.
The engineer and fireman escaped with
slight bruises. A number of small
buildings took fire and several were de-
mollshed. The fire was eXtinguished
before much damage was done. The
engine is badly wrecked. Too much
steam was the cause assigned for the
explosion.

The Burial ofthe MoIIies.

The Burial of the MOIIies.
The body of James Carroll, who was
hung at Pottsville, on Thursday of last
week, was taken to the residence of his
father, at Packerton, from which place
the funeral took place on Saturday af-
ternoon, the body being buried in the
Catholic Cemetery, in East Mauch
Chunk. The funeral was very largely
attended by the relatives and friends
of the family. .....
The body Of McGeghan was taken to
Summit Hill, Boyle to Coaldale and
Campbell to Lansford. The places are
about two miles apart, and were con.
stantly visited by crowds during the
wakes held after the arrival of the
bodies. Two different arrangements
were made MS to the funerals of these
three. At first it was intended that the
three funerals should take place Satur-
day, but some of Campbell's friends
failed to arrive, and the ceremonies
were postponed until Sunday. After
ward circumstances made it necessary
to bury Boyle and McGeghan Saturday,
and they were inferred in the Summit
Hill Cemetery in the afternoon. At
Campbell's the largest crowd was pres
ent Saturday night. A barrel of tObac-
co nearly empty-it was full three days
prior sat almost in the middle of the
floor, and three boxes of clay pipes
were beside it, and the half gallon
measure on the table had made it is ims
possible to say how many trips to the
whiskey barrel in the cellar. The
friends, in holiday suits. lounged about
on the benches, and the more fatigued
! sat Oh the floor with their backs against
the wall, The chief topic Of conversa-
tion was the recent executions, and the
views OF the friends were given with
much emphasis. Throughout the whole
night large crowd was coming and
going At about Z O'Clock Sunday
morning the first cOmers 70 the funeral
arrived, and from that time until o.
cloek, there was steady stream OF
people walking in and out of the little
|O.story franc building which had
4 been the home of Campbell since hi;
marriage. Soon the house became
crowded, aud the guests sat Oh the dooI

upper and lower lids nearly off-leaving
them hanging down the cheek by but a
narrow strip of skin. DR.. w. G. NJ.

The Coal Trade.

The anthracite coal trade for the past week
has shown no marked change Production
keeps mp very ftill, while The demand does not
fail of much ana prices continue to rule nearly
steady. The most important subject for con-
slueration in the anthracite coal trade Just now
is the demand for ana supply of coal and the
probable effect ON prices. We adhere to the
opinion expressed few weeks ago, that there
viii not, in all proba bility be any concerted
action to limit the supply of fuel The large
producing companies will continue on furnish

the le 'st possible loss This viii naturally be

operators be prolonged in their trade We hope
that ne Y outlet md new markets may be found
OF sufficient magnitude to take at remunerative

very abundant and never so low spreads over
the country II may ana should encourage en-
terprises in which coal is essential ana invite

Coal would now seem TO be g6 It's loves point-
IL is sold mt price less than the average cost of
