New YORK, Jan. ia Harrisburg
dispatch says that yesterday a resolution
was offered by Representative Long, for
the appointment of joint committee of
the senate aud house to inquire into the
circumstances of the riots, and to ascertain
the causes as we'll as tho results of the
same, and to report the result Of their
investigation to the legislature. 4 very
spirited debate followed, after which a
motion to indefinitely postpone the subject
was carried by small majority. Not
withstandisg the defeat the supporters of
the resolution are confident Of considera-
ton and passage within few days. The
dispatch says the resolution was offered as
the beginning Of an effort to make the
state responsible for the payment Of the
damages by the riots last summer.
The fire in the shaft No 7,near Pittst0n,

neigbboring vein is suspended.
