CATCHING THE MAIL BAGS.

A Pittsburg Telegraph reporter fur.

teresting account OF his trip from New
York to the former city in q postal
car, from which we extract the follow
ing description Of the moduS operdndi
of catching mail pouches and its at
tendant danger, The first was at
Elizabeth, about fourteen miles from
New York. The clerk opens the car
door as the train goes along at the
rate of thirty miles an hour grasps
the handle of the iron arm which is to
take the bag off the crane, and waits
until he is about twenty-five feet from
the bag Then he pulls the handle to.
ward him, and the arm sticks out a
couple of feet from the car, and in an
instant there is quick whiz- bang
and click Of metal striking against
metal, the clerk grabs at something
out in the darkness, and before one
has time TO think what 1t is all about
the door is shut, the bag is taken to a
table, unlocked, and ITS contents Of let
ters and papers duly assorted. 1t is
dangerous work this, catching mail
bags, and accidents are quite common.
Not long ago man at Bolivar station
had his hand all mashed to fragments.
The bag caught on the point of the
arm aud the clerk leaned ont TO get it,
A freight ear was on u siding near the
crane, and the arm struck it tearing
the poor fellows hand into shreds
The work has to be done with care,
aud the man who does it must know
inst where the crane is located, so that
he will not miss a bag on the darkest
night.

A SET UP JOB 1t is pretty general
ly understood that an effort will be
made in the Legislature this winter to
saddle the costs OF the Pittsburg riot
on the balance Of the counties of the
State. An exchange in alluding TO this
matter says at is down on the slate
that Henry NJ. Long, of Allegheny, is
to be Speaker of the House at Harris
burg this winter He has ever been
one of the most subservient slaves Of
Mackey and Cameron and so must
have bis reward The people of the
State will remember Mr. Long as the
man who engineered the movement TO
saddle the three million burden of the
Pittsburg riots on the taxpayers of the
Commonwealth. Another effort in
that line is to be made at the coming
sessions and the selection of Long ioi
the Speakers chair is the first move in
that direction. The press of the State
should make note of this plot and SC
thoroughly exposeit that country mem.
bcrs will insist on a change of pro
gramme. 10 be iorewarncd is to be

completed as far as ii was intended 10
be, judging from the fact, as We see
stated, that last week Worrall was en-
gagged as one Of the Commissioners
from this State in ascertaining the true
boundary line between Pennsylvania
and Ohio. We have no doubt that this
transparent fraud helped to secure
Whites re. election to Congress, and ii
will be in keeping with the character o.
the man if he tries his hand at secur
ing another appropriation in 1881 foi

1t appears to be reasonably certain
that Bisboc, Republican, was honestly
elected TO Congress in the dispntoi dls'
trict of Florida, aud it seems TO be
about as certain that the Democrats
will count him ont and return his
Democratic competitor. The Canvas
sing Board OF Alachua county are apt
pupils of the Hayes State Returning
Board of 1876, and they have taken
upon themselves to exercise the same
unwgrreUted judicial powers which
we're established ns precedent by tho
Republican fraud Of two years ago. ln-
stead OF counting the vote as the peo'
pie cas-, it, the canvassers are revising
1t 40 Us TO fashion u Democratic major
ty whore the vote shows Republican
majority. Mr.. Bsbee, the Republican
who IN likely 10 he cheated out oi his
seat in Congress, rushes to the Supreme
Court, just as the Democrats did IN
1876; the Court grants writ OF man
damus directing the vote to be compu-
ted and certified US 1t was cast, Just as
tho court did TO protect Tilden's vote,
aud the Democratic canvassers refuse
to appear, answer or obey the Court
now just as the Republican Returning
Board did when Hayes was TO be coun-
ted in. The Republicans sowed 10 the
wind and the Democrats are now in
viting them to reap the wbirlwind,
and both parties stand before the world
ineffaccably stained by fraud. And
the consummation Of the fraud il more
than probable Bisbee will be refused
his proper certificate the Democrat
will have q return under color OF law
and will be admitted Bsbee will con
test, aud the Democratic House will
remember how Republican fraud in
Florida made a President, and allow
Democratic fraud to make Congress
man. The Republican organs which
justified the Republican fraud in 1876
will bubble over with indignation al
the palpable Democratic fraud of 1878
and the Democratic organs which vel
led with rage over the Republican
fraud that cheated the people out of 0
national ruler OF their choice, will find
some plausible excuse for the Demo
cratic fraud that adds one to the Dem
ocratic majority OF the Honse and
scores one more State for Democratic
President, should the election be thrown
into the House. Philadelphia Times

Col. Walton Dwight was one OF the
most prominent citizens of Bingham

alleged, expended his fortune in the
erection OF these buildings. When

bankrupt In the latter part OF Sep

THELA TEST MINING HORROR

TERRE HAuTE, November 22.-The
explosion in the coal mine of landlord
Brothers, at Sullivan, yesterday, was
caused by an ignition of gas. Eight
men were killed by the shock or soon
died Of suifocation. There were at the
time twenty-seven miners at work, OF
whom fifteen were in the lower vein.
Seven of these were saved after the
lapse of an hour. The twelve men in
the upper vein were badly stunned,
but escaped injury. The following are
the names Of all the killed but one
Thomas landlord, Samuel landlord,
John Seeden, Albert Smith, John Bul-
ger, William Wales and Patrick Dunn.
There were but four or i've men cour
ageous enough to go into the lower
vein alter the explosion occurred, but
after they had saved tho seven who
were alive they worked until three
o'clock this morning in recovering the
dead. AT six o'clock work was re-
resumed, and at noon to-day the last
corpse was taken out. lngress TO the
vein was obtained through a very
small hole in the debris. The first two
in the list above were among the pro
prietors, OF whom there were four.
Four of the bodies were shockingly
burned and bruised. Harper and
Crutet, two young men who were
saved from tho lower vein, are badly
burned, and the former has a leg bro.
ken and an arm burned to crisp, be-
sides other injuries that may prove
fatal. The timbcrs OF the mine are
badly shattered, and the damages arc
estimated at $4,000. The citizens OF
Sullivan are subscribing liberally to-
wards the relief of the bereit families
