THIS DA1IA EVflmi,u TELEGRAriiPHlLADflLPlllA, SATURDAY APRIL 23, 1870. tlTV INTKLLIUBnVE, THE COAL TRADE. "Tho Prpct-m fllTeifpiM f the Miner Tb HcrnnloB Hale Oeoltttlon, I.n The prospects for the continuance of tho strike In the tflcnnylkltl region continue about the same. The dead-lock Is strong as over, with no present hone of adjustment. There have been rumors of trouble in other regions, but so far notalnjr of Importance has come of them. A suspension hnn been talked of In the 'Beaver Meadow and Hazeltou regions of the Lehigh field, but matters are now stid to bo adjusted satisfactorily. The assessment for the support of the Schuyl kill county miners Is said to bear heavily upon the men of the other regions, and to be very un popular. In some quarters not only tho assess ment is evil spoken of, but tho whole Schuylkill field and Us accessories ta freely discussed as a nuieance and a drawback on the workmen in oilwr regions. Even among some of the Schuyl kill men the strike is unpopular, as ws to be expected. There are always some who are dis satisfied In e7ery thing, no matter what the cvxireo may be. To ascertain what effect is likely :o How from the dieeatlsfaction, It is necessary 'to know how many are dissatisfied. Bnt even a 3arge number of dissatisfied would have but Hittle effect upon tho strike at present. The men have put themselves into the power of the cilque who are at the head of the association, and they cannot extricate themselves. Several hundred miners have left Schuylkill county to find work in the upper coal field of Lnzcrne county. In this movement they are helped on by the association. Kvcry one who roes receives five dollars to ray expense. This is the general policy of the W. 15. A. in all cases of strikes. The money sent froja other regions for the relief of the striking men is distributed among them in sums proportioned to their wants and the size of their families. Single men, and those who are unpopular, are not allowed money to live in idleness, but are oblbjod to leave and eeek work elsewhere. Some of the Schuylkill mon who have thus arrived and are now working in tho Lehigh region express themselves as considering "Schuylkill played out," and say that tho union Is in a like condition. It Is unfortunate for the union that such public expressions should be allowed from its members, but it is not yet seen bow they can be avoided. The supply for consumers along the line of the Reading Kail road, which was obtained for a time by means of the East Pennsylvania Kail road from the Lehigh mines, has beon uncere moniously stopped by the refusal of the men to load the Heading Railroad cars. This refusal was ordered by the officers of the association, who forbid anything which would tend to relieve the Schuylkill operators. The shape In which the demand was put was a notice from the officers of the Miners' UdIou to tho operators, stating that if any more coal was furnished to the Schuylkill county trade work would Imme diately be suspended in the entire Lehigh region. On tho receipt of this notice the ope rators, having an eye to their own immediate Interest, and acting like the brave men that they are, immediately succumbed, and no more Reading cars were loaded. A large vein of coal has been discovered within the past week in the Lorbcrry region. It is known as "White's Vein," and tunnelling has been going on for a year and a half in search of it. It was struck at the distance of 173 yards, was eleven feet thick, with nine feet of solid coal, and with a pitch of SI degrees. The eighty-second auction sale of Scranton coal by the Delaware, Lackawanna and Western Railroad will tie held in New York on next Wednesday, the 27th instant. The demand during the weak has been good. The following ore the prices of the week at Port Richmond for shipment. For points other than east of Bordentown and south of Cape Henry, or the nearer points, the rates are forty cents Tier ton higher than theBe quotations: Schuylkill red ash, $4-45(34-50; steamboat, $4-56; broken, 4)4-50; egg, $450; stove, $4-50; cnesnnt, $4; Bbenanaoan DroKen, iou; egg, f 4 00: stove. $4-65: chesnut. $4-20.

Some malicious person at the ball given to the Ohio visitors at the Masonic Temple last night went into tne rooms above tne main ball, in the third story of the building, when the ball was near the close, and turned on the water at one of the washstands in which the pipes were out of order, and which was labelled "Do not use; out of order," leaving it running; then put tin empty whisky bottle down one of the water- closets, leaving the water running there, and both were left running there the balance of the nigbt. ibis morning the floors were flooded and the water was dripping through tho ceil- irnrs of the fine rooms below, some of which have just been frescoed and others were being decorated. lhe water, ot course, nas soaked through every part of the stairway and small rooms adjoining, flowing into the room above the music hall and defacing the beautiful celling and cornice there. The water also ran down into a merchant tailoring establishment on the lower floor, damaging some of the goods. The extent of the damage is not known, but it will be a serious loss to the Musonic fraternity just at this time, when they have used every means to finish their new hall and are about to furnish it.

Text oi tho Flrblaclte anil Arrangements for -1-u.kiusT inn vote. Paris, April 23. The Journal Offlcid of this morning contains an imperial decree calling npon the people of the nation to accept or reject the project of the following plebiscite on the 5th of May next: "Do the people approve the liberal reforms which have been effected la the Constitution since 1800 by the Emperor, with the concurrence of the great legislative bodies of the State, and ratify the Senatus Consultum of April SO, 1870?" The other parts of the decree contain direc tions for the manner of voting. The ballot boxes will be opened at 6 o'clock in the morn ing and remain open until 6 o'clock in tho even ing. The caiwassoE tne votes will commence immediately after the closing of the balloting. The form of vote will be "Yes" or "No," on one paper. Legal electors of the army and navy will vote at their place of garrison, or of resi dence at tho time of election. The returns of the vote in each department will be canvassed in public session by three counsellors-general, appointed bythe prefects t departments General returns from all the departments will be finally canvassed in the Corps Leglslatif. The decree is signed by all the Ministers, and bears date April 23d inst. This is followed by another decree containing directions relative to the vote of French and naturalized citizens in Algiers. Following this again are the text of the Senatus Conmiuum, fixing tne Constitution of the em pire, as voted by the Senate at the session of April 20, and a circular from the Minister of the Interior to the Prefects of the various depart ments, dated April 20, authorizing public asseuv biles for discussion of the new Constitution. These assemblies will hold sessions from April 23 to May 3, and every elector, without regard to the precinct or department which he may be in at the time, will have the right to participate in the deliberations. This circular, while it permits the use of advertisements and placards treating of the Constitution, because the law protects the use of political placards, recom mends prefects to leave to the electors, under conditions of respect for law and public order, the broadest latitude in discussion and the pro pagation of political opinions. The committee of Legitimists, at their meet Ing yesterday, resolved to vote against the plebiscite.

The fpeaker stated In roferenco to the case of Mr. Ela, that that gentleman came to him yesterday and BHKefj Dim wnetner it was proname mat tne Committee on Claims would be called for public buxlncps next week, and then stated (when he un derstood there was no probability of It) that be de sired to be ahFPtit next week, and would ask leave of absence. The Chair understood that to mean that he wonld ask leave subsequently, bnt Mr. tiia left last tvenimr for home. It was probable he In tended that remark as a request that the Chair Bhouid ask It from the House. He therefore sug gested that leave of absence should be granted htm, as otherwise the Serjeant-at-Arms would be under the imperative necessity of sending for him. Leave oi absence was accordingly granted to Mr. Ela. Mr. nooner made a similar rennest for his col league, Mr. Butler, who had left for home last even ing with his family, having applied for leave of ab sence from to-duy. The Mouse refused to grant leave of absenco to Mr. Butler as dating from yes terday. He Is therefore to be sent for, according to the warrant Issued to the Sergeant-at-Arms.
