The price of stove and steamboat coal has
only been fifty cents ton dearer IN New
York than in. philadelphia, and as
freights have advanced to 95 cents this
would be an equivalent to advance of 40a
45 cents on the price of coal delivered in
New York. No contracts will thus be
taken for steamboat under $3.90a3 So, as
against $3.50 in the month of August, and
for stove at S4.45 against 81. l..I-.l-
"The Lehigh Valley and Philadelphia

ly ones that are mining coal at present,
and it is surmised that President Gowen
will agree to an advance az the mines. al
though he il opposed to any arrangement
which would limit the production, or
forming any combination with the COM
peting companies. i
"Durihg the past week the product on
has been on larger scale than for some

HOLT o,, BUCHANAN


The editor of the Monitor holds out
the idea that the Hon. Josvnh Holt, Sec
retary of War under Mr.. Buchanan,
among others, WINS dissatisfied with his
treatment OF the South, and tried to in~
spire him to pursue a different course in
relation to that section oil the union.
At the close of the administrat lion Mr..
Holt addressed the usual letter to Mr..
buchanan, customary to be received
from retiring member, from which the
following is an extract:' .f
'In thus terminating our official rela-
tions, l avail myself of the occasion to
express to you my heartfelt gratitude
for the confidence with which, in this
and other high positions, you have hon
ored me, and for the firm and generous
support whic1 you have constantly ex.
tended me amid the arduous ami per-
picking duties which l have been called
upon to perform. In the full conviction
the glory which belongs - an eplight-
ened statemanshlp and to an unsullied
patriotism, and with the sincerest wish
es for your personal happiness, re-
-uut at+ '''..' ~. HoLT."
Would Mr.. Holt have expressed the
full conviction that the labors of Mr..
Buchanan would 'be crowned with the
glory which belongs to an enlightened
statesmanship and to an unsuliied pa
triotism," If he was the coward aud
traitor which the editor OF the Monitor,
or his correspondent, if himself is not
the writer, falsely charges him nth
being
repeat what L said in my letter to the
New York Sun, that the time has come
when.aR end should be put to the false
aspersions and calumnies heaped by in-
considerate andill-inforIned writer's upon
the good name of the late Ex-Presldent
Buchanan, than " hom purer and bet
tor patriot, or one possessed of sound
/ views of the true theory and genius of
our institutions, never lived. The future
will fully vindicate his fame and repnta-

American patriots and statesmen. The

recite with appropriate gesture he
mother, alarmed at this exhi biiion of
precocity, ran to neighboring house for
assistance, but she was soon convinced
that there was no cause for fear, and
since that time the youthful orator, who
can neither read nor write, and Temem-
bers nothing read to him which does not
partake of de;lamatory nature, has
been exhibiting his oratorical talents IN
various parts of the country. AS he
stepped forward to the rostrum OF the
Exhibition auditorium yesterday, dres-
sed in neat Knickerbocker suit, and the
light hairs of his head, which is closely
cropDed every two, weeks, glitterlng In
the sunlight. there was nothingin his APP

unusual amount of Intelligence, When,
no wever,he proceeded TO recite portion

from sermons by Be eecher and Newman,
were, delivered with perfect freshness
and appropriate gesture.
