New Observation-Disclosures coal
operators have scored some good con-
tracts-at low rates-and there is
nothing much doing at the present
time, although they view the future
with cheerfulness and expect to place
very heavy tonnages this year. The
question Of quantity rather than of
price is the keynote of the whole
situation. 1t is Il matter Of fact that
some bituminous has been placed
with former users of anthracite, but
it is claimed that after the first rush
is over there will not be found 10 be
ii very appreciable amount OF this
changing, and the anthracite opera
tors have not yet come to the con-
clusion that all is lost. AS stated
last week, an adhesion to the higher
rates for bituminous, would give the
anthracite very good chance for
the steam coal trade. Outside ad-
vices are of low prices for soft Goals,
and there is an active competition
for trade. AS the railways are so
largely and directly interested in the
coal trade, we can see no better prices
for soft coal while the several roads
are extending into coal lields, and
tending in the matter Of distribution,
to the same markets. They are not

ANNAPOLIS March 6, 1854
To the MINING JOURNAL.
Since my last the appearance OF
things have somewhat changed.
Since the appointments have been
made and most of them confirmed by
the Senate, the transient population of
Annapolis has decreased in proportion
TO the number Of offices in the State.
Those aspirants for appointments who
at one time thought they would win
the coveted prizes and have seen them
disappear before THEN eyes like vapor,
have each departed for their homes to
bury their political troubles and medi-
tate upon the past in some secluded
spot TO say, with the poet, ''it was but
a dream-an idle dream"
1t is we'll known that there are still
a great many applications on the ex-
ecutive file from Allesany, and it may
be encouragement to such to know
that the appointments will be made
again two years hence. In the mean
time the Governor will have time to
consider their applications.
The bill regulating the working and
ventilation of mines has been further
amended, while upon its passage, by
providing that the inspector of mines
shall be a practical miner Of not less than
fire gears experience. The late appoint
ment, | suppose, has suggested the
necessity of this amendment. 1t fur
Their provides that where coal is dug
by the cubic yard or by any measure
ment whatever, the cars used by the
miners shall be measured by sworn
measurer and the capacity of each car
shall be stamped or branded thereon.
The bill with the amendments herein
stated has passed the House and is now
before the Senate.
A very amusing incident occurred
during the session Monday night when
the Local Option bill for Allegany
county came up. Mr.. Cochrane offer
ed an amendment providing for spe-
cial election on the second Tuesday in
June, which was opposed by Mr..
Grove. Both gentlemen expressed
themselves very forcibly upon the
question:. Finally the House referred
the bill back to the delegation and
they reported it to the House Tuesday

ment, when the bill was made the Or

Altoona, Pa, and was authorized by his ex-

Bradley. The sculpture is executed in Carrara
marble, and has been done in a faithful and
mastery manner. The figure of the deceased
clergyman is not only faithful reproduction
i'll scmbiance to the original but there is an
easy and graceful pose that is most pleasing to
the eye, and Il marked absence of the rigidity
often noticed i'll monumental dcSi gns. The
reverend Father is represented in his clerical
robes, and in the act of administering the
sacrament The likeness, the expression and
the drapery in the design exhibit skill and
workmanship of 40 ordinary character.
some idea of the professions of this work
may be formed from the fact that the
entire monument is about fourteen feet in

Il Graphite Picture of a Lirely Scene

FRosTBURG, March 7, 1884.
To the MINING JOURNAL.
The conduct of guests when cordially
invited to enjoy the over-abundant re-
past at the hands of another, is never,
failing indication of their actions when
moving in other spheres. as at homo
and elsewhere.
On last Thursday evening at the
hands of Prof. j. E. J. Buckley and
and DR.. J. J. Jones most luxuriant
treat and feast for the minds of all
sensible people was prepared, to which
the public was earnestly invited as
participants. But applying the above
principle to those who presented them
selves as guests, sad was the common
sense decorum of that assemblage.
Appealed to by Prof. Buck. y; en-
treated by DR.. Jones to subside and
give audience, but of no avail. AS a
consequence but part of a very interest
ing progromme was hurriedly executed
and as the "mob" surged out some
swearing, others using the most Oh
scene language, while many more en-
gagged in hurting snow balls among the
moving crowd. When reproved by
sensible people in the face of decenc!
and all the good training they ever had,
hooted in concert the most vulgar Ian
guage. 1t is sad state of affairs that
citizens, yea christians children, some
younger, some older, should act in such
a manner. But the questions come
where is the law Is not this an in
corporated town. Have we not State
laws against swearing, obscenity, yul-
garity and rowdyism on public high
ways? Have we not ordinances
against snow-balling The answers
come yes! yes but they are not en-
forced. Another set of questions pre-
sent themselves. Have we not a body
of men known as Getty Fathers
Have we not city officers? Do they
know that such laws exist and that it is
their duty to enforce those laws We
leave these interrogatives for the public
to answer. ]. E. ].

THOSE people who are condemning
our representatives at Annapolis for
the several and conjoint parts taker
for and against temperance ought t.
remember that it is not fair to vote
for q candidate wholly because he is
arepublican, or because he is q demo
crat, and afterward damn him be
cause he is not a liquor or temperance
man. 1t is this sort of conduct that
lures 80 many innocent statesmen to
political death that makes corral
of the Legislature and endows it
with an efficient dead fall.
