The Pottsville Miners journal says:
"The year begins with an active demand
for all but the domestic sizes, which it
would appear have been distributed over
the country in sufficient quantity to meet
the most pressing demands for the winter
season. As long as the manufacturing in
dustrics keep up to their present state of
activity there must continue to be a good
demand for the larger sizes. This, how
ever, will not require the full capacity of
the mines. and suspension will take place
as soon as the coal presidents can reach
uuanimity on the periods. As usual, there
is majority in favor of limiting the
periods to not less than week, and there
is the usual single advocate for three-day
periods. The result will be made known
ia a day or two. and indications now are
that il will be the usual three days. The
coal product of the Schuylllill region for
the week ended December 81 was Ill PA
tons, as against 156, ,S77 tons for the week
previous and S7,S74 tons for the correspond
ing week of last year. The total product
for the week was 495,354 tons, against
343.lS tons for the same week of last
year-an increase of 152,171 tons. The
output for the year is 29,3e1,02 tons,
against 2i,274,724 tons for the correspond
ing period of last year--an increase of
5.OS6,2g7 tons.N

latter business is an original feature with

applying TO them, can he readily accommo-
dated. They perform the service of ROOM

Rogers also rent pianos, organs, furniture.
and all kinds of rentable property, and keep
records of the best and most reliable hotels

prompt and obliging, and every one deal
ing with them may rest assured of perfect
satisfaction. This line of business is an en-
tire new departure. To a poor man this
firm offers rare terms in the matter of pur-
chasing houses and lots, so arranging it
that they can be paid for in small monthly
installments. To the stranger visiting the
city they will prove especially serviceable.

Local Legislation.

We observe that bills ola local applica-

passed in the House of Delegates as fol-
lows: By Mr.. Lancaster, placing bounty
upon crows, hawks and big owls (eaving
we suppose, the middle sized fowls OUT.
By Mr.. Mitchell, to amend the fence law
for Charles county. The nature OF the a
mendments to our fence law by the Hon.
VIM. Dec, and the amount of bounty up
on crows, hawks and big owls, stipulated
in the Hon. Samuel G's.. law, are wholly
unknown to US, as these solons have never
honored US with copies Of their proposed
measures.
We observe, too, in Tuesdays legisla
tive report that bill was passe on that
day "to provide for the issuing of license
for one year TO sell liquor to r. T. WiIlett
in Charles county," Now whether the
purpose of this bill is to enable somebody
else to sell liquor to R. F. Willett, or to
enable r. F. w. to sell liquor to other
people is not quite clear from the report,
but one or the other was evidently intend
ed.
