From Summit He'll.

The prospects for steady work are very
encouraging in the Panther Greek Valley,
during the present month.
AT No. 6 they are talking of an abau-
donment. The coal is giving out and unless
a new strike is soon made there will be
nothing more to mine for market.
Fred Engel, of Lansford, well known
about the "Old Mines" departed Thursday
morning of last week for his native place,

the United States forever.

The last remnant of the old plane days
is fast disappearing from sight and memory
dear. The large brick chimney was taken
down Wednesday and Thursday, and the
walls of the engine house removed. Before
the tunnel was cut through hundreds of full
cars Of coal a day went over the plane from
the Valley mines through Summit Hill to
the tide market. The Hill was then live

went well. Now how changed. No more
coal passes over the old way, Nos. and 5

though there is much life yet remaining
amongst the enterprising merchants and
citizens of the old town, the stoppage is
severely felt.-Tamaqua Courier, Aug. 3.

PROSPECTIVE VETO AND THE EFFORTS TO
AVOID 1T. .g
The following dispatch is sent from
Washington:
The question OF avoiding a veto Of the
considered in the Cabinet to-day, and gen.
orally discussed by all the members present.
No conclusion was reached, but one Of the
suggestions made will probably be accepted
at another meeting. The discussion indi-
Gated very clearly that the President and all
the Cabinet were opposed to the unlimited
RECOMMENDATION Of the silver dollar, but
they were favorable at the same time to re-
storing it with restriction OF its legal-tcn-
der character. With this III view Il bill
will probably be framed at the Treasury
Department for Introduction in the Senate
as compromise measure, or else an effort
vii! be made when the Bland bill comes up
TO amend it so as to make the silver dollar
equal to greenback and i legal tender to
the same extent Is the United States Trea-
sury notes. This will not be done, bow
ever, il an amendment prevails restricting
the lcgal-tender limit Of the dollar. Az
other proposition, which was discussed,
was to coin a dollar worth intrinsically as
much as a gold one, on the basis of the
present price OF silver; but this wasfnaIly
thought to be impracticable with the COM
mercial value OF the latter fiuctuating from
day to day. The President is anxious TO
avoid veto and an open rupture. with Con.
gress on the financial question, and very
determined effort will be made to compro-
mise the situation"
