ALTHoUGH the election in California
occurred a week ago to-day fWednes-
day. it is only now that anything like
an intelligent estimate can be formed of
the general result. There are a great
many ways in the political world by
which men cam make fools of them
selves, and a very large portion Of the
Democrats in California saw proper to
do SO by following the leadership of
Dennis Keaucy. when he assumed to
play the role OF a political reformer.
Owing TO this detection of Democrats ;
at the dictation of a vulgar demagogue.
the Republicans elected their candidate
for Governor and all of the four Con-
gTessmcn, or at least three Of them. -
The complexion of the Legislature does
not appear yet 10 be definitely ascertain
ed. In san Francisco the result is a
substantial victory for the Kearney
ticket, its Mayer, Sheriff and most Of
the other important city officers having
been elected. We may he deceived
but we don't believe that roaring and
TdntHg Dennis can succeed next year

anthracite counties in the State are di-
yidedinto six districts, for each Of which
an Inspector OF Mines is appointed.
whose duty it is to investigate and re-
port monthly 10 the Courts iuthe district
and annually TO the Governor, on the
quantity of coal mined and the number
of accidents and their causes. The re-
ports of the different Inspectors for
1873, which have lately been published.
fcrcibly illustrate the fatalities TO hu-
man life that result from anthracite
mining, in which so many thousands of
persons are employed. During the wear.
1S7 men and boys were killed and GO2
injured, many of whom were crippled
for life. The most fatal accidents occur
from the falling in of the roofs OF the
mines and explosions from fire damp.
The number OF persons employed in the
mines is estimated at 5000. and the
total amount of coal shipped from all
the districts is put down at 1861. .OGO
tons. Some idea OF the immense quanti-
ty of powder used in blasting the coal
can he formed from the fact that in the
several districts around Pottsyille alone
1t reached /, d. .174 pounds during the
Near-ayeraging a keg of powder for
every htty-twO tons OF coal mined.
