COAL MINING COMPLICATIONS.
The Status OF tho Mining business Hero
ab0uts.

A reporter called upon Secretary Jones
after the miners' meeting was over last
night, and at once poised himself for an
interview, but the Secretary did not inter.
view very readily. lie protested that the
reporters, iunUCently, did not convey cor.
reCtly his ideas, and hOnCe he wanted the
questions submitted in writing and time 10

questions were then written and answered
thusly,

1--WE met, passed o few resolutions
and adjourned.
R.-What were the resolutions?
J.-They are Of no interest to the pub.

tine business.
R.--What Is the coal mining situation
Just now?
1.-THE mining situation Is promising,
and will yield q cents per blshel.
R.-Are there any prospects, OF a strike?
1.-THE mill operators will probably
take Ia stock during the coming two
weeks and the miners will take a rest. 1t
Is to the interest Of the mill owners to
have mining at the lowest figure, and It is
the miners and my business to have the
price OF mining as high as possible 10 be
consistent with the condition OF trade and
in Justice to the public. | look at the
Issue as purely a matter Of business, and
not as a matter OF sentiment.
R.-Are the q cents being general y

J,--Generally, except in the mill banks.
R.-How long do you intend 10 remain 2

Henry Clay's Dog.

Mr. Clay had "A fine Newfoundland
dog that was presented by an admiring
friend who lived in Nova Scotia. The
dog was very intelligent. and the Sage
of Ashland TRAINED him with his own
hand TO perform a number Of wonderful
tricks, one OF which is as follows. In
one of the pastures in which Mr.. Clay
allowed his finest stock 10 run was a
fine well, with large trough attached,
By means Of which ihe cattle were sup
piled with water. The water WAS
drawn from the well by the bucket and
spindle system, but it required great
deal of manual labor 10 keep It in opera
tion. To avoid this Mr.. Clay con-
structod small treadmill. attached it
10 the spindle OF the well with an
iron crank, and then trained the dog TO
walk the tTeadmiil. In this manner
the trough was kept constantly filled
with water, and the clever dog became
so accustomed 10 tho performance that
without the necessity of being bid, be
made It his duty TO watch the well con-
stantly and see that tho trough always
had in Il n sufficient supply of water TO
keep the coppers Of the blooded stock
cool. Mr.. Cay loved the dog. and was
very fond of watching him go through
the performance. He would always
have the performance exhibited TO bis
visitors. and when the good old canine
finally gave up the ghost. he had him
respectfully buried, and erected at the
head of his grave an elegant marble
slab.

from the iourneyP The remembrance
OF 1t gave him pleasure, after all the
years that had passed.
He got up out of the easy chair in
which lac wns sitting, and walked about
the room, flushed and animated. The
time had come, perhaps, when some
thing still more lucky was at hand /;
but, for the world, he could not guess

II was Thursday morning when Rufus
Warner discovered the advertisement,
and answered IL as directed. A week
from that day the following dialogue
took place in Barone Brothers priva
Office:
"Wal, wal, bless my eyesl So you're

"Yes, Mr.. Trexler. am Rufus

naturedly at Rufus and then at the
bankers. I've been out in the West
ten years and have done pretty well in
land, you see. Something rather hand
some, maybe; and-look a-here, young
man"
Mr. Trexler's face grew sober; and
going over 70 Rufus, he whispered in
his ear loud enough TO be heard = rod
distant:
I've been talking with your en-
ployers, and supposing supposing. you
know, joey TreIler Just gives you a

Rufus put out his trcm bling hand.

II any part of the body gets frozen
the very worst thing TO do is to apply
heat directly. Keep away from the fire.
Use snow II you can get 1t; II not. use
the coldest possible water. Last winter
our little boy Of FIVE years froze bis feet
while out coasting at considerable dis.
lance from the house. He cried all the
way home, and the case seemed pretty
bad. l brought big painful OF snow
and put his feet into It, rubbing them
with the snow. But my hands could
not stand the cold. I was
alarmed to see him keep his feet in the
snow 40 long. but he could not bear them
out of II. II was half an hour before he
would take them out, and then the pain
was all gone, and when / had wiped
them dry and rubbed them a little
he was entirely comfortable, put on his
stockings and shoes and went 10 play.
He never afterwaTd had nny trouble
with his feet on account of this freezing.
His sister got her feet extremely cold.
and put them at once TO the fire. Her
case at first WAS not so bad as her
brothers. but the result was much
worse. Her feet were very tender all
winter. and she suffered from chilblains.
Her toes had a swollen. purple look. and
she had TO take larger size of shoes -

THE III effects OF the entire absence of CO.
operation among our planters We're never
m~oreappparent han at the present time.
In spite Of the large nfluX of laborers which
has takcn place during the past twelve
months, plantation hands are still scarce
when wanted. .wealthier planters, or
those who ave large means at command,
AMI who have large crops at stake, are out
bidding their weakerneighbors, for labor, in
a manner which threatens 10 prove ruinous
to the latter. We have complaints from
many quarters that the Chinese are leaving
their employers without warning, enticed
by IN offer Of higher wages. Numbers Of
those even i'm domestic employ have been
induced to abandOn the dignified saunter
with which they have been accustomed to
wait upon and cook for the outer bar
bariaus,' and To- take to the hoe and the
cauc-kuife. As there i no prospect % relief
for this condition of things through the i'm
mediate arrival Of new hands heavy loss
will fall upon a large number Of plantation
owners who will be forced, i'm self-defence,
to give the same high rate Of wages for
all labor they need in excess Of their
shipped" hands, whilst a new incentive
i given To those serving under labor en-
gagements to abscOnd from their present
employ, and enjoy the advanced "a
they can secure elsewhere. The loss To- the
planters will be a loss to the country, for
the money thus spent will go to those who
VIGOROUSLY avoid spending more than they
can help here, and hoard their savings to
send them out Of the kingdom.
All this comes of the neglect of precau-
tiOus which have again and again been
urged upon our planters. For years the
present proprietor of this journal has sought
to impress on the minds of the sugar
planters and other employers of field labor
the practical benefits which must accrue TO
them from organization among themselves.
Similarly the d~esirability Of forming a
Joint stock Association for the impOrta-
ton Of labor has been preached TO these
deaf ears Mr.. Gibson urged an immigra-
ton COMPANY among planters in 1872.
Many Of the men who, some through
jealousy of others, some through supine-
ness. have persistently hung back and
rendered abOrtive every attempt that
has been made to form a Planters Associa-
ton, or some organization for the pro-
lection Of our agricultural interests, are
now CRYING out loudly against a condition
of things which hurts them, and which
