Vct the Virginia (.Wcoiio) EiUrryi. i; April P.. . Ail soon as It was known tti.it tho mines w re on lire, and tliat a larjfis number of miner were Im prisoned below, tin; tnnst iiitono oxi'ltofmiiit pro wiled, both in Hold Illil anil this city. Tti! wlvi', children and relutivtis of the lost flocked to tin; vaiioufl hoisting works, and their grief wus rich as to caitRC tears to comtko down tlit rheeks of tin; tnnst stor.t-!v;irted. Father Monopne and several other I'li'r-.nlHj clergymen did all that could 1)0 donj u comfort tin; weeping women and children but even I lie 'cvi i i iel fathers could find but UiUo to way upon such aa oi'cxxlon. The poor women, with their wecplni? children cliiiRlliK Hbout them, Htood about with hands elaxped, rocking themselves to and fro, yet se.nree.ly uttering an audible hoI they seemed perfectly abounded and overwhelmed at trie suddenness and awiulnwsof tin; calatnlty.Turn where they would thor.i was no oom fort for them. At the Yellow Jacket, all bat one man known to bo below had beon broui?;it up tltul. yet. no smoke issued from the Nluift, while at kentuck and Crown Point shafts there tnoso a ilm.-.k and HtlfllriR column of smoke, mingled with the pungent irnses generated from the burning wood and heated ores below. No person who htood at the month of cither of thCMe shafts mid experienced the choking effect of Hie smoke and gases fcsiiing from below, conld for a inoiiient entertain the slightest hope that any one of ' ttnse in the mine could lie alive, yet wives and relatives would still hope against every thing,' and In every, direetlon almost super human exertions were made to extinguish tho lire. . hy rlosing up the shafts and turning down Into them the steam from the severul hoisting works, the tire could have been extinguished almost immediately, but to do this was almost equivalent to suy ttiul all are dead below and would, indeed, have been death to any that might have been living besides, fit; order would have drawn from a'i present at all interested In the fate of those below such a wail as no one would wish to hear. rBKit.ovs WOKK. No one could have lived to descend twenty feet into either the Crown Point or Kentuck shaits, but the Yellow Jacket shaft being cooler, the gallant, firemen and equally gallant miners descended it. and bravely began the battle with the (ire. A long string of hose was attached to a hydrant on Main street, and carried down to the tsuo feet level, wlieu tho work began. The firemen would advance u.s far as possible, extinguishing the burning timbers, and when a cave occurred or the timbers seemed about to give way, tho water would la; shut off and tho miners would go to the front ami make all secure. The walls of the tunuels were so heated that It was very frequently found necessary to fall back .even after the burning timbers had been extinguished and play the stream upon the rock in order to cool It down, and in places water nearly boiling hot stood to the depth of two or three Inches on the floor of the tunnel. Then the air was bad. and, with the steam and gases almost suffocating, it was found necessary to lead an air-pipe from the main pipe of the blower In order to enable the men to continue work. Du ring this tight several caves occurred ; when tlfe .miners came to the rescue, and when the ground was made secure, the firemen would again go for ward with their stream. It was such woi k as few firemen in the United States have ever undertaken, and such aa none but the firemen of a mining coun try could have done. 8CKKE8 IlELOW TUB SUKKACB. Pome of those who were below, and who were fortunate enough to escape, give most, thrilling descriptions of the scenes which occurred far down In the drifts of the lower levels. AH agree in saying that the smoke and stifling gas came upon them suddenly, and that, although they rushed at once for the shaft, there were many who sank down on the way. At tho Crown Point the men bo crowded upon the cage that It was detained nearly five minutes, the station-man fearing to give the signal to hoist while so many men were in danger of being torn to pieces. A young man who came up on that cage told us it was the most fearful moment of his life, one man, unable to find room to stand upright, crawled upon the cage, and thrusting his head between our informant 8 legs, begged to be allowed to remain there ami go up. As the cage ascended those left lehiiid were heard to throw themselves into the shaft, and some were heard falling back on the floors. Another young man told us that in rushing for the shaft it suddenly occurred to him that he might fall into it, when he got down and crawled upon his hands and knees, feeling his wav. till he knew he had reached tho shaft. While lying at the shaft he says that three or four men came running from behind, and pitched headlong Into the shaft. At one lowering of the cage a man, who went down to rescue the sufferers, find ing that there were more persons below than could be brought np that trip, himself got off into the drift and put on board a young man who win so suffo cated that he was luirdly able to r'tand. We were unable to learn the name of this man, b it were happy to hear that he was afterwards brought up safe and sound. firemen rNnEitrmorNO. This is a strange country, and strange things occur here, giving rise to strange necessities; but our peo ple are equal to nil the requirements of the "situa tion," as was well proven yesterday. We have above given it as our opinion that few liremen in any part of the United Slates would have had the heart to "tackle" a lire 800 or 1000 feet below the surface of the earth, and we now wish to state that all did their duty most cheerfully, even striving to be allowed to go below. It was comical to see the "shifts" for they frequently changed of five laddies with their big hats on going down on the cage a new way of going to a lire. A stream was kept on in the 800-feet level all day, and about 8 o'clock at night, as it was found the tire was rising, a second stream was put on at the TOO-feet level. The fire was finally so fur subdued, as we learned about 12 o'clock last night, that the work men were able to reach the bodies of some of the unfortunates who lost their lives by this terrible accident, We understand, that a number of bodies Vere brought to the surface about 11 o'clock, and that niue others were lying at the station of the 800 feet level. The lire was not yet out, though about conquered. -This is the greatest mining calamity that has ever occurred on the 1'aciilo coast, or in any mines in the United States. SPOOL. SILK, THREAD, ETC.
