came upoaus suddenly ihithe hitter part-of and pro

was partially resumed in Ole efair*e i,?rq,:few dayii. , Such, was the
situation in which we are pleced,,that all iiiiiteditit a call for'a

and efivsica! enrgies, in :ordinary times, yet, in times of danger 1
and difficulty, in the hourof Severe triah men is tilways disposed I,
to-call upon his fellow man far advice and assistance. Such was
the course putsued by !hill tridieg o community in edery section of
the country, and such wtcs the course pursued by.us: 'We held
a meeting that was numerotisly attended; and slier a free inter--'
, change of oon find to4terli deliberation, vie retelved to adopt
the coarse that appeared to hs

In consequence of imfbreeeen diffiautties, the seal merchants
in the cities were under 'Abe t pecnitsity,,,ot countermanding their
orders fOr coal; they dir cted their, shipments tolbe diminished,
i ci
and, in mitny instances, ', be -stopped altogether l'or a time; and
others absolutely refused' tolulfill theircontracss,iallegine in ex•
tenuation the pressure ofithi times, and their tOtel inability Ow
meet any draftsrlthat might be drawn on theta. Residers, it was
impossible to get drafts disceunted at the customary time, how.
ever unesteptiortable thetmig,ht he in °the' respe s ..ats;and, coolie
quently, it was tomessibliii for the colliers to pay •their men, and
they were therefore cotapelled to discharge them.! In this posi
tion of affiiiri, we, publis ed the„proceedings of oir specling, in
which worstated,,to the . Odic our situation,lind vifws.
We stated, that when the question of the reduction of duty on
foteign coal wa s agitate iin Congress, we had pledged our most
strenuous effortelo make the home production ehual to the de
mand, and that we had, h,Y unusual perseverance a jid toil through
a severe and
,itiblementi+inter, accomplished mach, and stood
ready to go on to redeetiniog our pledge'. That Othough-wages.
had been high, we had gene on working and pavi our men re
gularly; and then 00arge amount of coal tocked at the,
_, r
mines ready for,t nspottittion. That the minin „and stocking _
of this coal had absorbed all the capital of the others, and we
were not able to transl'4 the coal into-the market for retail.

It is customary for, a, weigh • aster, when be issues to ti• cap

men of business, it is ofsome imortancelo a class of mess whose
earnings are so 'small i ns
s that f boatmen; and-ohould they be
t i
obliged to weigh . more freque tly, it will. be a source of still
greater dissatis,faceen to thetg.i Another item of charge which
the boatmen have always felt/ as clipping .their hard earned
Lance, and which engaged, the .attention, oiefhis board some
'"years since, is the . toll ma ii•npty, boats, returning from

As the article of coal dirt is ef much less value than coal, it• is
found by-thica „ l who Gave used!' it for time burningok.c.,thet to
pay the orctty costs, aed charges on it, they cannot used in

oughtto be solicited to reduce the toll on this article. -. :
...• Three new steam engines, manufactured by Hay Wood de Boy ,

and other improvements, as rail roads, wharves, &. are in pre-,1
