You are, of course, all curious TO
know the reason Of this. The train
which preceded us has broken thro'
a bridge just ahead Of US, and not TO
mention the large number Of killed
aud wounded, il is right that should
inform you that another train is due
here, and may at any moment run
into us. l merely mention this in
passing. What wished particularly
to say is this; If you remain in the
cars. and are not killed by the ex.
pectant train, you will he delayed for
an hour, perhaps much longer. There.
fore, ] advise you TO disembark as fast
as possible. It is only a short five
minutes walk 10 the X. z. and w.
road, and by the time you get there a
train viii be due which will take you
TO your destination, and as they make
better time and surer connection upon
that line you will in the end gain in
time by your apparent delay. If any
passengers wish to ask any questions !
shall be very happy to answer them.
II not, I bid yon bon voyage, and
trust that you may all get out before
the train, whose whistle now hear,

When nitrate of silver is used as a
medicine for length of time, the
skin becomes of peculiar blush or
slate color. Many remember the ia
miliar face of the blue man who for
merly lived in Washington, and whose
face had assumed this singular hue.
There is also a "blue man of Nilsson
ri" whose skin is discolored in the
same manner and from the same
cause. When about fifteen, he took
five drops of solution Of nitrate of
silver, containing twenty grains to the
ounce, and continued this for FIVE or
six months. At the end of that time
he observed that his face and hands
were becoming dark. This color has
become permanent, and hence his So
briquet. Nitrate of silver is some
times used as a remedy in epilepsy.

barketh only at the stars, and spite
spurns at that she can not reach. An
envious man waxeth lean with the
fatness of his neighbors. Envy is the
daughter Of pride, the author Of muir.

with civil posse, The Abbey Com

by machinery, the Confidence and
Brookside mines, and two pits
of the .CollinsVille Company, all Of
which employ only non-union membera,
resumed work this morning. These mines
are on the Vsndslis road and there is no
further danger of molestation as long sc
the authorities guard them. The strikers
offered no opposition to the militia nor
civil posse, and hsvs left the neighbor-
hood. The only other mines in operation
in st. Clair County are ct Msrissa, near
Bellevil'e. The strikers have ordered
them to ehut down, but the county and
state authorities have taken such active
measures to preserve order and protect
the men willing to WORK, that it is not
likely they will make any demonstration.
Il looks now as though the trouble is
ended, but whether the miners generally
viii resume work at once is not known.
1t is said the operatives are willing to pay
the miners az cents, the price demanded
by them for digging, but refuse te sub
NIT to the other terms, and conditions
imposed. Probably a compromise will
be effected in few days, when operation
throughout the district will be resumed.
