NEW YORK, August ls.-A strong
breeze from the Hudson River scattered
dust among the visitors to the tomb OF
General Grant yesterday and made
their Sightseeing difficult There we're
about 6f,y women aud children grouped
about the door Of the tomb. An equally
large number Of young men and boys
lo,tered under the trees or leaned against
the fence which divides Camp Grant
from the rest OF the park,
watching the soldiers cook
the midday meal. Several employees Of
the Park Department were picking up
stones and removing them 10 wagons,
and preparing the various entrances 70
the park In expectation OF . repetition
OF yesterdays enormous crowd. Despite
the efforts OF the property owners along
the streets leading 70 the tomb there are
still : number Of chcaply built board
booths selling eatables and liquors.
Alta meeting Of the Board OF Park
Commissioners yesterday definite plans
were adopted for completing the work
on the temporary vault, Ia which the
body OF General Grant lies, anu for lay
ing cut walks aud otherwise Improving
the part OF Riverside Park In the neigh
borhood OF the tomb. An area OF foul
or ave acres adjacent to the tomb will b
sown with wheat. This II the best way o
preparing new ground for turf. Early mex
spring. grass seed will be sown. On tn
sloping ground at the rear Of the vaul

CORRESPONDENCE
IN ENDORSEMENT.

FRosTBURG, July 16, 1885,
To the MIMIC JOURNAL.
= The complimentary and well-de-
served notice that appeared in your
last issue, over the signature of ever
itas" of J. W. S. Cochrane, Esq, in
connection with the State Senatorship,
seems to have struck popular chord.
1t seems, too, to be taken as an indica-
ton that merit and worth, as well as
expediency, will be considered as ess-
entail qualities in the nominee. And
as Mr.. Cochrane is we'll known to the
people of the community, and stands
deservedly high, and is popular, his
candidacy for the Office of Senator
would not only be a thing eminently
proper in every regard viewed, but
give strength to the ticket as whole.

GENERAL ITEMS.
Eastern TieaCs ofthe Coal Trade.

NeW York.-The bituminous trade
is dull in all directions. The Cum
berland region and the Pennsylvania
Clearfield are running behind, while
the Beech Creek is gaining Roadway.
Mining Record.
Bituminous quiet, but the several
producing regions hold their own
very we'll, showing that there is an
increasing use of this quality Of fuel
for steam raising. There is appar-
emily no great effort made to get
paying price but the point is to try
and sell as much coal as possible.
We continue to hear of coal at
1926 to $3.50 at Boston, and the
price in this market IS running at
the several fractions from $2.75 to
$3.25, very little being done at the
latter price, except some special
Goals to old time customers who
know its value. The figures of the
principal districts supplying the
seaboard are as below, and the
changes will be noticed therefrom.
New River, Beech Greek and Po-
cahontas are gaining at the expense
of the older Clearfield and Cum
berland districts.-Coal Trade
Journal.
The New York market is quiet,
with a small incidental business.
The Warren mills and one or two
paper-mills have purchased in the
East, and it Is rumored that Cum
berland coal is selling at low prices
on the cars in the East. The Pacific
mail contract for one Or for six
months is said to have been placed
at a figure not far from $2.75. The
coal will come over the Beech Creek
(Eanderbllt) line. Small orders are
taken at from $2.15 to $3, and occa-
sionly few cents more to those who
have a strong preference for a par
ticular coal.
Boaon.-There is very little life to
bituminous coal. We still quote
1925 @s2.55,f. o. b. at Baltimore
and Philadelphia. No one, however,
expects cargo prices to be governed
by pool prices. The trade that the
pool was intended to affect has been
passed. Delivered prices for pool
coal are $3.35@$3.50; outside coal,
$3.25@$3. 40.-Engineering and Mi
ming JOurnd.

The Cumberland Nea0s of Wednes-
day reports:
Examiner Weimer Yesterday began
the examination Of applicants for
teachers certificates, of whom there
were 1873, two-thirds being females.
This statement furnishes Il fair
prospectus of the proportions where
with our schools will probably be
manned and womanned next year.
Could all senders be compelled to
enrol two girls to each boy, and all
commissioners and trustees without
heirs of school age, made to submit
to the educational forces they put in
motion, the disposition of affairs
would strike about level all round.
AS it is, there is but little for one,
nothing for the other, and less for the
balance.
We are writing of education for
the children, not the frills and
feathers bestowed upon teachers.

HE mayor of Omaha has vetoed

number of our own leading citizens
in the opinion that it is oppressive to
poor people who own cattle to yield
to the clamor Of rich people who rent

which, in the West, compels every
body to fence their cattle in. He en-
forces the correct village statute, I'M

to enclose their neighbors' stock cut.

surrounded by icy lifts and lashed

spray is hurled into the air and the

w. G. Cooper, Of Cumberland, preach
ing from Luke ii, 10:
Fear not, foI behold l bring you good
tidings of great joy, etc.
At Up. m. Rev. J. r. Lane, also of
Cumberland, preached from Eccles-
tastes tx, 10:
Whatsosye2 thy hand tindeth to do, do it
with thy might, etc.
At $3.50 Rev. r. p. Lawson, presiding
elder. conducted the ceremony of lay
ing the stone.
Five dollars in small coins of recent
dates were deposited in the stone.
An extra train over the Cumberland
and Pennsylvania railroad from Cum
berland brought large number of
visitors. Private conveyances from
the same direction added considerably
to the quota from the city, The con-
gregatlons were therefore large and
attentive.
Both the resident colored pastors
were also present. The stone founda-
ton, substantial piece of work, is
already laid and ready for the super
structure of frame, Located at the
corner of Oak and Maple streets, the
site overlooks large portion OF the
town. The estimated cost of the edi-
fee, completed, is 81 900.

BILLS inviting proposals to exca-

BY way of baseball remarks some
body has SAID that the successful
players are spare, lank, herring chest
ed men, with a bone sticking out
here and there. For quick, prompt,
spicy work, one doesn't want heavy
weights and athletes, but slim, wiry
fellows of much wind, activity, roof
and bottom. On this plane baseball

compare notes and announce with tri-
une infallibility that there is a vast
amount of INSTRUMENTATION current
concerning the value of muscle.
