CITY I It TELH THE COAL TRADE, Th Hrrnnfm Nnle The Maaihly Rte f Wa.rn In the Hhnmvkln Itrloa IMmmtlsfAe la Bchuylklll-The Trade-QuotatUns, The September sale of Rnranton coal too place In Hew York on Wednesday. It was generally ex pected that the rotes at this sale would rale higher, bat, as It will be remembered we predicted In our towt week's article, they were considerably lower. The average decline on the last month's sale was atxvnt ten cents per ton. . This Is contrary to the gcnsral ruling at this time tf the year. It Is not very encouraging for the trade at this port, an advance in tolls having Just pone Into effect. tut still an opinion Is hazarded toy many In the trade that this variation in the ftcrantnn prices, which is not slight considering what the advance usually is, will have no Influence cn business. It Is thought that an advance in price an be made sutllcicnt to cover both the increased tolls and an advance rate. We give below the state jnent of the sale in detail. Lump opened with the sale of 100 tons at tWiy., fell oir to 14-15, rallied to 14-20, fell oil" airaln, woo ions selling at I4-17X, and closed at ft 10, passing off In large lots. Steamboat opened at 14-40. then advanced to 4-48)i, and closed at 14-45, the larger part of amount uttered going at M 4 V- Broken opened at 14-85, sold largely at that rate, tout toward the close was weaker, and NM) tons sold at 14-78, rallied and closed at tl nx This size was disposed of In small lots. Kgg passed off quickly, there being an nnnsually "mall proportion ottered, opened at 1510, sold down to l-r'07j, and closed steady with large Bales at 15-05. stove opened with the sale of 208 tons at 5-eo, fell off to 15 '40, became a trifle brisker at that rate, and was rnn up again to 5-60, and closed at S5-47.V Very few large lots were sold, the greater part, being taken by small dealers. Many were surprised at the rapidity with which this size passed away. These held oir to get it at a lower rate, and were conse quently disappointed. Chestnut opened at 1410, and was rapidly ran up to 14 27, being in particularly good demand at tins price, At the close 100 tons were given away a) f 4-2J, amid much merriment. The following Is the rabnlar statement of the sale as compared with that or last month : jymr. A'iqit &. July 27. 11,000 Lump f4l0tt41t7 4-2"($4-37 10,000 Steamer 4-4f4-45 4-4i 36,000 Grate 4-75f4-85 47c4-95 8,000 Kgg B-05,4510 r)-00;i5-0'2tf 25,000 Stove 5-40.fi 50 CWiSHHtf 10,000 Chesnut 4-104-27)f 4-40t4-S0 The statement that tne rate of wages for the month of August in the Shamokin region had been fixed at 12-84 as the price of coal at about the same time that the Schuylkill rate was Ilxed was incorrect. The meeting of the operators' and worklngmen'S committees did not take place until the first of this month, at-meu the rate was found much higher than expected. The Shamokln region has the ad vantage over Schuylkill in having the choice of markets. The average price was found to be f 2-93, and the operators have agreed to pay on the IS basis for the month. In Schuylkill there lias been some dissatisfaction with the Undlng of the wages committee. One colliery near Tamaqua Is said to have suspended in consequence. The workmen generally whenthey resumed did not belteve that prices would be lower, and this belief was fostered by some operators who nave been bragging about their high prices. Conse quently the dissatisfaction. The trade is brisk, and must necessarily be so on account of the Increased production, or stagnation will ensue. Vessels still continue to arrive uud the shipments east are increasing daily. At Boston, within the last ten days, over forty schooners have entered, laden with coal from this port, The new ventilation bill will, where enforced, tend to reduce the production somewhat. In col lieries where there is but one opening, not more than twenty men will be allowed to work at one time. This, however, will atlect New York more than Philadelphia, because a greater number of the mines in Schuylkill are provided with two or more openings, either exit passages or ventilation shafts. There are about twenty collieries in Luzerne county which have been served with notices to work but a limited number of men on account of a deficiency In this respect. The coal dirt utilizing schemes have at last been brought to what appears to be a satisfactory termi nation. A compauy in Carbon county is now at work manufacturing an improved article of com pressed dust which is said to give great satisfac tion. It is in the form of cubes about live inches square. A contract has been concluded with the Navy Department for the supply of the article. It Is cheap, is well adapted for being packed closely in vessels, and is remarkably free from impunities. At Mauch Chunk there were transported south, during the past week, ovwr both railroads and cSnal, 130,10011 tons against 100,93315 tons the previous week, an increase of 2s,l'J2-ltt tons. During the cor responding week last year 97,124-01 tons were shipped, an increase for 1S70 of 32,0210 tons. The following are the prices of coal by the cargo at I'ort Richmond for shipments east of Bordentown and south of Cape Henry to other points rates are 40 cents per ton higher than the Quotations: Schuylkill Red Ash, J4-80(d,4-o; do.

It Retention la th City Seeae Arannd the Pewnpaper Ofllcca The Uejaleln an( the Ofiramaa. The news of the surrender of MacMahon's entire army, and the taking prisoner of the Emperor ef the French himself, waa received in this city about 10 o'clock this morning. At first it was 1 considered too good to be true, and but little excitement was manifested, but this anbellef gradually gave way to a feeling of confidence, and much rejoicing was oc casioned thereby. The telegram was first sent from the telegraph to the newspaper ofUccs, and in the hands of carriers, clerks compositors, and editors, created quite a sensation. The news therein contained was soon displayed upon the bulletin boards. The passers-by stopped to read, but at first believed not. Later, however, large crowds assembled in front of the different effices, and the greatest excitement en sued. The Evening Telegraph was early on the scene. An extra was issued by 11 o'clock, and soon the shrill voices of the newsboys made the day hideous with their cries of the "Surrender of Napoleon!" The edition was rapidly bought np. Knots of men were gathered at different points on the pavement, all reading from the same copy or being read to by one more excited than the rest. The scene reminded one forcibly of the scenes around Tnird and Ches nut at diircrent times during our late war. As was to be expected, the Germans were the most exultant Numbers of them might be heard talking excitedly in their deep gutturals, and making the most peculiar and emphatic motions with their hands and bodies, totally regardless of the other people on the street. The German beer saloons were thronged with the Jubilant persons, and lager flowed like water. Everybody treated everybody else, and everybody elso treated everybody in re turn. Many of the German families Imraedately set alKtut decorating their houses. Flags were displayed at every available point, and bunting and other brightly colored materials were draped from many windows. By this afternoon or to-morrow these dwellings and the many Herman saloons will pre sent quite a gayappearance!2 Cleanliness.
