Fifty cents per ton additional for delivery at
New York The cause for this movement is
nscrlbed to light sales and prices below those
Of the old circulars The fact was that every
one had been holding of in the expectancy-of
lower prices. Since this has now been accom-.
plished a much better state Of affairs is looked
forward to, and there is no doubt Of the abill-
ty to sail smoothly along to prosperous CON
clusion ofthe business season Of 1881 large
tonnage will be wanted, and prices will aver
age much better than last year. The Lehigh
Valley Company have issued no circular, hut
announce that they have reduced their prices
aAd are selling at the same rates as the Della
ware and Hudson. Already there is quick
ening in business, the number Of orders hav-
ing already increased, and the tone OF the
Market as well as the outlook, are both most
encouraging. Indeed, for all the future the
anthracite coal trade is as cheering rs we
ever before saw it. The estimates Of the an.
nual production have heretofore been based
upon the production for the Eastern markets,
but this, It is now daily more apparent, is not
the true basis for such calculation-the
great field of consumption of anthracite coal
is the West. The region from which this de-
uhnu 10 10 COulS Is NeTy Nluts anu lHo
known to be within that vast section Of the
country is fast distending and filling with n
population desirous of using the cleaner and
more pleasant burning anthracite. The won
derful production of the West that fills with
produce so many long trains of cars of several
railroads for the Eastern markets are quite
sure to take back with them loads Of coal of
corresponding weight. This will very materl-
ally add to the consumption of anthracite coal.
Add this demand and production to the esti-
mates heretofore made, and confined almost
entirely to the Eastern and Middle States,
and the growth of consumption will nearly
donble what has been heretofore estimated.
The production of anthracite in 81 was a lit
tie less than 15 TOS 532 of tons, against 1862 407
in 1880, the increase more than doubling in
ten years The anthracite annual returns of
coal show n similar increase at each decade.
Counting the same ratio of increase for the
next four or tive decades-last years tonnage
of anthracite was 2, 3,e3s,O tons-double this
in ten years, and we shall have an immense
total and there is no reason to doubt 1t will
be more than doubled. Notwithstanding the
reduction in circular and Wholesale prices of
15 TO 20 per cent, we learn there has been no
reduction In tho retail prices here OIL at
New York. The circular prices which have
been reduced refcr to prices t. o. b. and along
side. The yard prices are unchanged.

A Snake in the Ear.

The Hazleton Sentiners Jeanesville cor
respondent furnishes the following singular
item:
A very remarkable circumstance occur
red few days ago. 1t appears that Mag
gle, the youngest daughter of James Lle-
wellyn, who resides in this place, was taken
sick with the measles some time ago, and
alterward with dipbtheria. When she was
in the way of recovery, she kept complain
ing Of the earache, foy the relief Of which
her parents applied cotton saturated with
sweet oil and laudanum. After treatment
Of this kind for few days, the parents dis
covered the head Of large worm in the
child's ear. A neighbor, who chanced to
be in the house at time, pulled il out, and
it was found to measure five and a half
inches long, and was aliYe and appeared
quite lively, In talking with the physi-
clan about the matter, he remarked that he
had never in his practice found anything so
singular. The child is now in fair way Of
| recovery.

Dear Sir: am under great obligations to
you for the settlement OF my claim. | have
this day received ., 900 from the New Era
Life Association, in full for the five mem
berships held by James W. Mickley, my
late husband. The entire cost of member
ship FIVE years was 1892. Respectfully,
yours, MRs. j. W. MIcKLEY.
The New Era Life Association has been
doing business for over six years, and the
above letter of Mrs. j. W Mickey shows to
the public that the New Era is the cheapest
association, for the cost of $1,000 member
ship, taking the average age Of 40 years,
has been $3.50 per year. There are many who
say they cannot become member, but they
spend during year for delicacies more than
the cost OF d 900 of protection in the New
Era. Now, Fathers and Mothers, think of
what nice benefit it would be to your loved
ones if you had membership of 81 900 or
$4,000 in the New Era Life Association to
protect them after your death. Please send
for circulars or call on F. II. Alexander,
District Agent, No. l04 Broad street, Beth

IFor The Dispatcb.l

Before the election wrote out my views
and rave Cameron II .03S majority. Many
OF our friends seem TO have forgotten that
the combined vote against the Democracy
last year was some $4,000 TO 1900. | see
some Of the Malone leaders are trying to
make fools believe that Cameron got With
in 5000 as many white votes as Daniel.
How long, think you, will it be before
some other of the Malone leaders will be
out with proof 10 show that Cameron got
more ,chite votes than Daniel by fully 5,OCO
to 100000
Does IL not begin to look like that the
"niggers" are OF heap more Importance
before an election than after? III desired,
OF course il will be an easy job for the re-
pudiating white men to satisfy the negroes
That thew carried the State independent OF
the negro vote. Since the election IT looks
very much like somebody is going to be
fooled, and we would not be surprised II
both adiustcr-Democrats and negroes
too were.
We debt-paying people have done our
duty faithfully in the past. Our duty now
Is TO keep cool, watch, and wait. The
muddy stream must get clear after awhile,
and the less it il stirred the quicker it will
become so. When that is the case the real
people OF the State will come to the front
again. You know that the present state OF
things in Virginia was brought about by
negro votes, controlled by the Republican
Administration at Washington.

A novelty In canal-boats lies In Charles
river near Boston, which Is calculated 10
attract considerable attention. IL Is called
n pneumatic canal-boat, and was built nj
Wiscassett, Me-, as devised by the owner,
Mr.. X. III. Tucker, OF Boston, who claims
to hold patents for its design In England
and the United States. The specimen
shown on Charles river, which Is designed
TO he used on canals without iniuring the
banks, is simple structure, measuring ~
feet long and 30 wide. IL Is three ieet III
depth, and draws II feet OF water; u Is
now driven entirely by air, Roots blower
No. being used, the latter operated Dy
an cight-horse power engine. me ar
Is forced down central shait 10
the bottom, where it is detected,
and being confined between keeis,
passes backward and upward, escaping at
the stern through an oriiice nineteen leet
wide, so as TO form a sort OF air-wedge BE-
tween the boat and the surface OF the
water. The force with which the air strikes
the water Is what propels IL. The boat mas
a speed OF four miles an hour, but requires
n y-lvc-horse-power engine TO develop
its full capabilities. The patentee claims
great advantage in doing away with the
heavy machinery OF screws and SIDE
wheels, and believes that the contrlVance
gives full results in proportion to the power
employed. IL is also contrived for backing
and steering air propulsion. owing TO the
slight disturbance which it causes to the
water. it is thought to be very well adapted
for work on canals without injury to the
sidcs.-BOStOn Journal.

A Question.

win the senators Of the Virginia Legisla-
ture who hold over have to take the oaths
usually administered at the beginning OF s
senator's service? If not, why noty Their
term has not expired; but the Senate OF
which they were members two years ago is
dead beyond the hope Of resurrection. Tho
United States Senate is perpetual body.
A Virginia Senate dies once in every two
years. Two thirds Of the members OF the
United States Senate always hold over, and
thus always constitute quorum. There
ere, we think, only seventeen out Of the
forty Virginia State senators who hold over
this year. These facts 80 to prove that it
will be new Senate which will assemble
here on the 18th proXimo. 1t would seem,
therefore, that it will be necessary TO adj
minister the usual oaths to all the members
Of the new Senate. We infer, however,
from certain things that have come under
our notice, that there are two opinions on
this question. We await further light be-
fore expressing decided one ourselves.
