clothe the land of this vicinity with the
garb of civilization, and previous to the
discovery of coal the stiffness Of nature
was unbroken save by the aborigines. Now
everything is changed and has assumed a
busy look; trains heavily loaded with coal
rushing along at break-neck speed give
unmistakable evidence of growing in
dustry. Upon enquiry we learn that from

portions.
Troops of begrimed faced miners hurry
