PITTsBURG, Pa, July 2s.
Considerable progress was made yester-
day in this city in getting things in better
shape, on the railroads. The track layers,
sheppard men and others on the Pennsyl-
vania and Pan Handle line were at work
clearing off the Debris and replacing the
damage to tracks through the district,and
there was no interference on the part Of
the strikers.
In Allegheny, the situation was not
considered so favorable. Gen. Browne
after a consultation with the strikers, re-
ported that engineers and firemen decline
TO move freights unless the company
would protect them from personal injury.
1t is stated that the running Of passen-
ger trains on the road would cease to-
day.
TIE agitation among the miners
still continues and the general situa
tion though hopeful is not free from
embarrassment. II is no longer ubi
ed that there is an ample force to
suppress any riotous denomination
that may be made.

"A p. NJ, ON Tuesday, March IL, 1877, aged
months.
His tiny hands are folded
Upon his little breast,
A sweet smile fingers on his face,
While in his dreamless rest,
1t seems as if the angels
Were whispering words of love,
Of Him whose smile will greet him
In the Heavenly realms above.
He's like budding lily,
Forbidden here to grow
Even in death most beautiful
AS white and pure as snow;
And though within his little tomb,
We lay him down to rest,
We know that he will blossom
On the Saviour's loving breast.
So fare you well, sweet baby,
We must put you from our sight,
But your form will still be with US,
In the darkness and the light,
And one day wen greet you, darling
In your blessed mansion new,
Fof though you can not come to us,
Still we may SO to you.
