Although these rambling letters are devoid oe

disgression in regard to the very extra
ordinary animosity against Mr.. Gladstone which
is visible among the ordinarily quiet and re-
ticent members of the upper classes. By Sec
tion of the public--a section neither small nor
stupid-Mr. Gladstone is hated with personal
emphasis almost impossible to describe. In vio-
lence of vituperation / have never heard any
thing in America, even in the fiery furnace Of
the last days of a campaign, to equal the high
words and low language flung daily at Mr.. Glad
stones head in the private conversation of men
who are gentlemen and scholars in their discus
sions of all other subjects. They never tire of
recalling the catalogue of his crimes, or Of re-
peating the rosary of his recreancies. The Re-

abuse of Mr.. Blaine, multiplied together, fail to
attain the sum Of the abuse of Mr.. Gladstone to

to-day. The coal in this mine has to be got
out by machinery. Yesterday afternoon leak
was discovered in the compassionate receiver,
which furnishes the motive power, and Charles
II. johnson and Tom Williams went into the
mine about 250 yards to repair it. They neg
lected to turn off the pressure. and upon at
tempting to stop up the leak. the end of the re-
ceiver burst into fragments knocking the ma
chinery about and tearing up things generally.
Following is a list of the killed and wounded
Thomas Williams, instantly killed; Charles
johnson, fatally injured; John Hallamen, fatally
injured; L. White, seriously injured.
The excitement In the village was intense AS
the unfortunate men were brought out of the
mine the groans and shrieks were heartrending.
Thomas was repairing the leak, and johnson,
one of the owners of the mine, was holding a
light, and the others looking on when the explo-
sion occurred Every bone in Williams's body
was broken. johnson was thrown against the
wall, with large scautling across his breast.
Every shred OF clothing on Williams's body was
torn of, and his shoes were blown over twenty
yards. Williams leaves a wife and three small
children in almost destitute circumstances The
others are also married men. 1t was case re-
sulting from carelessness. The coroner rendered
decision In accordance with the above facts.
