THE COAL TRADE. rata tlet lee for the Wrru-Tne Pimrnlty on the Wages Uaeailon Aiseont of Mblpm uu Deal Halo-A Vecdalaa la a, lanJ Case. '1 lie anthracite coal trade is now in a very lively condition. At the preecnt time not more tban half the collieries In Schuylkill county are In operation, on account of the late dilllcul tics with the men. At a meeting of operators eld at Pottsvllle on the 15th Inst., it was re solved to reduce wapos on the second of April from the t3 to the 3'0 basis, as ottered by the Kxecnllve Hoard of the Anthracite Board of Trade. This will make tho wages of outside bands f 9, Inside 910, aud tuluers Is 12 per week. Contract work is to be reduced thirty per cent, from the present rates. In the col lieries of Schuylkill county, which are now in operation, wo:k had Just been resumed on tho oldlbasls. The men, being informed of tho propoed chanire, have refused the 2 50 basis oirered, and Insist upon the rates of 1800. A general suspension will un doubtedly take place after the 1st of April In fecbuylklll county, and In Columbia and North umberland counties a partial stoppage is looked lor. In view of this fact there la now a great demand for coal. The stocks as a general thing are very small, and dealers are endeavoring to buy up in anticipation of the reduced supply of next month. A remarkable activity in the Hiarket Is the result. The following are tho quotations for the week: rlcnnylklll Tied Ash 4-2(Va4-fiO llroken 4-lOM-2 Krk 4;o,44-J Stove 4'lK$t-25 ' Chesnut 8-75 Shenandoah broken 4-28 Kkb 4-28 " Stove 48 " Chesnut 80 The above is tho price per cargo at Fort Rich mond.

The Delaware, Lackawanna and Western Railroad have given notice that their eiirhty first auction sale of 80,000 tous of coal of the usual sizes, deliverable during the month of April at their depot in Ellzabethtown, N. J., will take place on next Wednesday, March 30. During the past week a judicial decision in a coal case was rendered in Philadelphia, which is of importance to thoee in the trade. A suit had been brought before an alderman by a coal shipper for extra charges, which arose from the refusal of a city dealer to receive a lot of coal shipped according to contract. The consignee, according to the decision, was held accountable for all detention or extra ehnnres. Local Odds and Ends. Wrong, for St. Augustine's clock to put its hands before its faee and keep them there always. An exchange says "Shad are coming down." Frank says he's glad of it, but they have not got down to his boarding-house yet. There will be an order of "Ladies of Pythias" organized on Tuesday morning, March 29, at 10 o'clock, in the Shiftier House, Moyanienslng avenue, below Dickerson street. The favorite tune of the organ-grinder at Ninth and Arch streets is "Up in a Balloon, Boys." How sympathetic ! The children in the female department of the Monroe Grammar School, Button wood street. below Eleventh, are continually complaining of "dizziness" and odd feelings. We would advise the Board of Control to examine into the mode of ventilation. The oldest of onr volunteer firemen are all . in favor of a paid fire department. The 1'hiladelphia and Southern Trade Jour nal, published by William C. Harris & Co.. has just entered upon its third year, being consider ably enlarged and improved. There will be no parade made by our militia on the 9th proximo. Two Attempts About 11 o'clock last even ing, two young men attempted to enter the grocery store of a Mr. McAlcer, at the southwest corner of Fifteenth and Montrose streets. An ofllcer noticing them working on a rear window shutter attempted to capture them, bat they eucceeucu in escaping. About 11-30 o'clock an attempt was made by a party of two (supposed to be the same) to enter the store of Chas. N. Parker, No. 2004 Ellsworth street. They succeeded in prying off the iron screen from the front of the window; they then demolished the large plate glass, and were about entering when Mr. Parker appeared and put them to flight; Heavy Bukolart Somo time on Monday night five burglars entered a residence at Nine teenth aud Sprucd streets, and ransacked it from top to bottom, securing a lot of silver plate, jewelry, etc. They even entered the bert-room of the family and took from a table a gold watch. The husband hearing them leaving the room jumped out of bed aud followed them to the staircase. He then returned, obtained his re volver, and rushed to a back window, only to see the rascals escape. They secured about 40'J worth of plunder, independent of tho watch. New Banking Institution A charter for a new institution, to be known as the People's BaDk, has recently been granted bv the State Legislature, with a capital of S'S.tO.IIOO, and the privilege of increasing it to $1,000,000. An establishment is now being fitted up on Chesnut etreet, above Fonrth. which will in a few days be thrown open to the public for busluess. The ew institution Is to be managed by well known financiers. ' Robbery. Some time dnriug last night tho lactory of E. Weikel, N. W. corner of Thir teenth street and Glrard avenue, was entered by breaking open four doors and robbed of a small quantity of cigars. As far as can be ascertained the robbery consists of five or six hundred Yara ;igars. The robbers were evidently disturbed in their operations, as they left four boxes in the yard. Vagrancy. Last night 113 vagrants were accommodated with lodgings at the Fifth Dig. trict Station-house. At the Third only 19 secured quarters. This district has been overrun of late, and the lieutenant has determined to put a stop to it. Last night he stationed oflicers in the hallway to drive off the "bummers," and so thickly did they pour in that the olUcers were compelled to use their clubs. Cheese. The Delawar Harbor Police lorce yesterday found a 57 pound cheese at Front and h'oble streets. The owner is requested to call and take it away. A 8 (j V 1 K T. Oood Inieat . IloaolBtloa. On Monday at 1 o'clock P. M. a trial will Uke plnce between the Good Intent and Resolution rHcara Fire Engine Companies, at tho old Log Cabin, Wlssahlckon, tho stakes being flOOO a sldo. They are to play for three successive Lours, aud to average the same every thrco minutes: the dorkIos to be i inch, and the sec tions of hose used are to be fifty feet; each steamer to be fired bv either coal or wood, and the nse of tar, spirits," etc., Is forbidden. There is also provision mado for the bursting of hose and suctions, when tbey will cense playing until the same is remedied. If the weather la not suitable tbey are to appoint another day. The following Is the capacity of their steamers: Tho Good Iutont is a single engine, having a steam cylinder of ten inches in diameter, with twelve inch stroke; tho bore of the pump is five inches In diameter, twelve Inch stroke; the number of receiving valves are sixteen (brass clap valves); the number of discharge valves aro twelve: nnmber of tubes in boiler 220, being 1,4 by 8(1 inches in length; the size of suction, 4in the clear. The Resolution is a double engine, having a steam cylinder 7 inches in diameter; the bore of the pumps 4 Inches in diameter, with 8-inch stroke; the receiving valves are three inches in diameter (gum valves); there are four discharge valves on each end of the pumps; number of tubes in boiler, 180, )i by 15 inches in length; size of suction, 4) in tho clear. It will be seen by the above that the engines of the two companies are very equal as to capa city, the one being a double engine, while the other is a single one, and therefore this match cannot fail to attract considerable attention. ' A Veto The Mayor at noon to-day called upon ULiiet Downey ana lniormca mm mat the roposca "trial ' between tue ttesoiution ana od Intent Mcam Fire Jbnelncs mutt not take place. The Mayor then caused notices to be served upon the President of each company, notifying them of the fact. His Honor bases bis objections on the ground that the matter is gambling, money being bet, and further that a large body of firemen gathered at such a contest, and some perhaps intoxicated, might give rise to riot ana perhaps bloodshed. DIRTY STREETS. How tbe Street Contractors Perforin their Duties. High Constable Curley this morning reported (for the second time) to tho Board of Health the non-collection of ashes on South street. The following streets were also reported as being in a filthy condition: South, Swanson, Penn, Gatzmcr, Buckley, Dock, Delaware avenue, Second, Lombard, Little Pine, St. Mary, Powell, Bay, Cullcn, Hirst, Gasklll, Union, Levant, Ex change place, and Carter's alley.

Tho Recorder's ofllcer placed Matthew in one of the cells at the Central Station with a prisoner who had been confined for drunkenness. Shortly tho turnkey heard a terrible row, and eoine: to the cell door found Matthew beating the poor inebriate. He was immediately taken out, given a hearing before Alderman Kerr, and sent down iu default of $000 additional bail. A Sad Case. Ofllcer Couterlcr, of the Tenth district, yesterday found an unknown woman lying in the street at Second and Muster streets, Buffering from spasms. Procuring a conveyance ho removed ber to tho station-house, Frankford road and Master street, where she now lies in a dying condition. She is apparently about fifty years of age, dressed in a brown and grey striped dress, black shawl, brown hood, lastiug gaiters, and grey stockings. She is also crippled in one ui uer luwtr muus. In Admiralty. This Morning Francis Kel- ley, an American seaman on board the British vessel Francis Lovett, brought suit before U. 8. Commissioner Phillips against the captain for $153-26 alleged to be due him. He had shipped at Rotterdam for this port, and the captain enaeavorea to keep him lor tho re turn trip by refuting to pay him his wages. The Uomumsioner aiiowea tne claim. Si'Orts A. L. Vale and 8.

Madrid. March 9 Ooen hfmtllltlnn broken ont in the Cortes between two of th most powerful parties in the Chamber, each of mra anxious to secure to Itself the vital strength of the country, and to make it an in strument for the realisation of its plans. Tbo hostile factions are the Democrats, supported by the most moderate of the Republicans and the Unionists. The struggle is assuming the most serious proportions. The aim of tho Rcoublicans is to nrevent thn f ains of the revolntion of September from fati ng Into the hands of the Reactionists; that of the Unionists is to become masters of them, by electing the monarch of their choice. The Gov ernment, distracted by the struggles of those two factions, furnishes unconsciously by its In action nope ana aspirations to ail parties. 1 have ofteu noticed that, In Spain, In the solu tion of tbe most Important difllculties. it ia never a question of consulting tho public wel- iare, nut only of personal linings and anlmosl- ; tics, inns tho Democrats are exerting all their efforts to induce the Government to abandon the favorable attitude it has assumed towards the Unionists in order to obtain a reversion in their lavor. AheMiniatrv is anxious to be on a frlendlv footlne with both Democrats and Unionists. and, In tho fear of making enemies, whenever any of its members lay a bill before tho Cortes, mcy are ooligca to maKe concessions to each party; hence the eternal agitation prevalent among tnem, ana to wnicn tney are constrained to submit. Rlvero, Prim and Becerra are de sirous to solve these questions in accordance with tho principles of the revolntion, but. in the moment of action, they find themselves in pretence of sentiments and aspirations so hos tile that It Is impossible to como to an under standing; hence the critical position of the Ministry. There is In Madrid one unanimous opinion with recard to the Present Government. The greater part of the Deputies and the Ministers are convinced that it wouia ne most dangerous to leave matters in their present condition, which is one of neither life nor death, but a sort of moribund agony, which is ruining and ex hausting the whole nation. I told yon in a re cent letter that there was a question of putting into execution the organic laws, which are the necessary complement to thcConstitutlon. But on this ground it was utterly imposBiblo to come to an understanding. The majority of the Cortes was divided, and it is not known as yet what solution will be given to this imdortant matter. The Union Liberals are in favor of couceding the authori zation in question: for, they argue that after the organic laws have been passed there will be no longer any plausible reason for hesitating to elect a king, and thus crushing the hopes of their enemies, who threaten the nation with a civil war. Tbe Democrats and tho Republicans, fully comprehending the importance of discussing at length and with reflection the organic latvs on meetings, associations, tbe press, the municipali ties, the conseils generaux, public order, elec tions, civil marriage, the establishment of civil registers, and the reform of the civil and penal codes, will not concede without a struggle the authorization demanded by the Ministry. They base their opposition to this measure on the dan ger with which tbo execution of these laws would be fraught, if effected by the Ministry, without having been voted by tho Cortes; for, in that case, luture ministers would not hold themselves bound to respect them, looking npon them as the work of a partv. and not as the ex pression of the national will. The clergv, high and low, Is at daggers drawn with tho ministry, and the sixty thousand priests, leagued with the sacristans, beadles, and other ecclesiastical oflicers belonging to all tbe forty thousand com munes of Spam, are plotting in concert with tho nobles against the revolution. CUBAN MATTERS. Advices from Havana dated 25th of February state that a discussion has arisen between General Valmaseda and Caballero do Rodas, Captain-General of Cuba. Notwithstanding the reports of tho government organs, I learn from private letters that the suppression of the Cuban Insurrection is by no means effected as yet. The spirit of the insurgents is, however, considerably depressed, and their numbers are much diminished. nnfAHiCE aki conncitcK. BVENINO TRLEOnAPH OFFICE,) Haturday, March 28, 1871). Money is easy, as usual of late, and the condi tion nt this time is due to the dullness of general trade and the indisposition of business men to embark in new enterprises until financial legis lation shall have assumed a definite shape. We quote call loans in round sums at about 5 per cent, on Government collaterals, though occasionally 6 per cent, is obtained on miscella neous stock pledges. Time loans continue steady at previous quotations. The bauks are lending freely both on time and call, but the amount of really fcood business paper wat rarely ever so small at this period as at present. Gold continues extremely dull and weak. The opening sales were madeatlllji declining to 111M, ana closing about noon at 111- Government bonds are in full sympathy with gold, and prices this morning show a slight de pression. Tho business at tho Stock Board this morning was small, but the whole market was firm. Sales of State securities at 107 jj for the sixes, third series. City loans were neglected. Sales of the new sixes at 102. Reading Railroad was moderately active. with sales at4SJ.. Pennsylvania Railroad was steady, selling at 57K. Camden and Amboy Railroad advanced, and sold np to 113. Lehigh Valley Railroad changed hands at54J; Northern Central Railroad at 43; and Catawissa Railroad preferred at 34 b. o. Philadelphia and Erie Railroad was in good demand, but it was not sold; ittiX was bid. Canal Etocks were dull. Small sales of Schuylkill preferred at 15. b. o. 32 offered for Lehigh, but not taken.

The speculators for a decline in gold started the market fro.ii its monotonous stead inesa with reports of tbe prospective passage of the Funding bill m the Rouse and of the expewted defeat of the bill to ratify the St Domingo treaty. Those were assisted by tbe less firm tone of the foreign ex MiBiigefe aud lv the suggr-stlon that as the currency balance of the Government Is only Ave million, fcneretary Boutweil nay Increase his gold next imuiwi v) mn inucn oh nve minions, use was ai" made of the JaU that on the 1st of May the pay ment of the coupon on the 62's will throw about twenty-five millions of coin on the market. It Is sunpectert by many that the Secretary of the Treasury Intends to tiegln the payment of these Conpons without rehate rarly lu the entiling mintli, and that the speculators who have obtained Know ledge f his intentions have been selling the gold market "short.1 The Gold Kxchango held a rather stormy session this afternoon, to consider special ChM-gce of fictitious transactions technically known as 'washerpreferred against a leading firm having connection with Itlie board. These transactions have long been the disgrace of Wall Mieet. The public will comprehend, then, by the simple explanation that a broker wishing to buy or sell makes a league with a confederate, of whom or to whom he buys or sells fictitiously, with the pur pose of artlllciaily weakening or strengthening the market, as suits his purpose. Where he buys he gets the gold or stocks below the market rate. Wheie he sells he foists his load of gold or stocks npon some outsider, who is tempted to buy because of the editions purchases of the confederate. "The decline In gold and the lower qnotattons for Five-twenties In London were responded to by a heavy and lower market for the Government list. Usually the two conditions above mentioned do not exist together. That Is. lower quotations abroad Sroduce higher gold here, or an advance in gold ere weakens the market abroad. Bui latterly it would seem that the foreign speculation In onr bonds haa reached its climax, for the season at least. Hence, with lower gold hare, the market does not respond on the other side, as it la already as high aa u is reasonably expected to go. 'The rate on call loans ranged from four to five per rent,, witn exceptions to some of the prime stock houses at as low as three per cent. Tbe Gov ernment dealers are more than fully supplied at four per cent., and borrowers on miscellaneous and mixed collaterals are readily accommodated at five. It Is thought from the rate of exchange in some of the Western cities that the bank statement to-mor row will show even a smaller shipment of currency than during the previous week, when the rural de mand was met with about a half million dollars. Commercial paperj was steady, and in fair demand at the rates liint quoted. "The foreign exchange market was without spe cial activity, despite the approach of steamer day, and rates were barely steady at KW'IOWS for the several grades of bankers' sterling at sixty days. There Is still a moderate If not limited supply of commercial bills on the street, but the large exports of the past week are not as yet reflected In this par ticular. From the Indications at New Orleans and other Southern ports a free supply is expected about the beginning of next month." Philadelphia Trade Ueport.

The refusal of the President to send trcops Into Tennessee to aid the Governor in enforcing the laws increases tbo chances of (Jongresional action with reference to that State. It Is understood that the Recon struction Committee was waiting the decision of tbe President before reporting the bill to the House, and that tbe Kepublicans ot Jennessce are better pleased at the action of the President than If he had responded favorably to the request of tbe Governor. Secretary Fletcher, of Ten nessee, was beiore tbe Reconstruction commit tee again to-day, and finished his statement with regard to tbe condition of affairs In that State. Balley'a Defalcation. Deputy Commissioner Douglass states that so far as he has been able to learn from a rough examination of Collector Bailey's accounts, the defalcation amounts to 150,000. Throe officers of the Treasury Department are now in New York Investigating: the Whole affair. Their re port, when completed, will be submitted to tho Secretary oi the l rcasury. Nan Domingo. The proposed annexation of San Domingo by 1olnt resolution, In case of the fallnre of the treaty to obtain the necessary two-tniras vote, is becoming popular among Senators, and will no doubt be rescrtcd to by thosewho are anxious to get San Domingo at all hazards. It is under stood that tho President favors this method, and holds that It will be as valid as annexation by treaty. Vhe Tariff mil. The House is In session to-day for debate on tho Tariff bill.
