Tho whole amount sold was Uu.OOO tons, a larger
BiuouDt lhau ueunl. It was Bold mostly in sin ill
mounts to retailers and consumers. There was bit
little hpirit in the bidding.
The prices of this mouth's sale, as eorapired with
tlioHe or lunt month, are an average decline of Kyc.
jirr ton on lump, W.c on steamboat, :vi-ui. on gt.vs,
f.nc. on epp, ii6jc. on stave, and 21 '.c, on choMiiut.
T he avt ruite reduction on all sizes is about iHe. p;r
ton. On this unpleasant fact, so far as tno tra liis
cone rued, the Miners' Journal raaKes tlia following
comment :
"The prices obiaincd for Scranton Coal at the 3V.e
fin Wednesday have completely paralyze 1 the tradj
lor thi; present, and prices will have tJ rule still
lower to meet tills decune. This, however, will be
almost impossible. But few of our operators are
more than payiuf. expanses now, ant many are
IoMur at the present rates. To smpend the collieries
would not help tho trade now, because the other
rejriou could supply all the coal the market will re
quire, and consequently U would have scarcely any
effect on prices lor the balance i the season. It
looks ploomv for November and December, Out it
t-atu.oi be helped now. Those who can ro on will
Oj to, HDd those who cannot, at the IoiV rate3, will
Cave to conform to circumstances."
The respective committees of the Schuylkill
minera and operators have held several meetings
lurint? the past week for the purp so of fixing t.ie
rate ot wages for (ctouer. O wiu to sorno disaMe
niLMit as to how the terms or the late compromise
should be understood, they were unable to come u
any conclusion, and adjourned to obtain Instruc
tions They will meetairaiu to-day.
The I.elitRh rate for November was fixed yestcr
tlny lor cohi loaded at Mauch Chunk as follows:
Lump (furnaces!), 13; lump, i0; stea-uDjat,
gj -75; broken, J3-76; egg, J3-75; egg, 8a 75; stove, (4;
clirsuut f:t.
The Delaware and Hudson Canal is st.ill reported
as in ditllculty from want of water, the rains being
only of sutllcient amount to enable boats on their
way to reach their destination. A better prepara
tion is to be made for next year.
Trade at all points is dull. At Mauch Chunk tlio
shipments are largely in excess of but year, but the
market Is very dull. At this port the market Is un
charged, anil the supply is still in excess of the
demand. Trices eoueuently have been weak.
Tho following is the complete sum. nary of the
trade for the week, as reported for the Pottsviile
ii'ur' Journal ol 10-day:

Tdb Expenses op tub Cmr Dspautmkkts. Tit
Controller of the city has not yci received all ths
departments estimates, nor has tlia Bard of K-vi-Hion
completed the exhibit of the taxable prop-rty
Gftliecuy, so tn at. it will b at least a fortnight
before the task or Uxing the tax rate will be fair.y
entered open, from the esiimates already before
the CortroUer, It appears that the necessary appro
priation to maintain the House of IC-ifuvu durln
1871 will be $7f).du0, which falls equally upon the Stut
and city government. Tim Heoelver of Taxes' de
partment will require $33,000; the fit? Comuits-

Tue "Star" Coi kse of Lectckes. Thi nut
of tho 'Star'' lecturers will be lion. Charles Sum
ner, who will on Monday appear at tho Academy of
Music andpeak upon "iLatayeue, the Faithful
One." This Is a change from Mr. Summer's pre
viously announced subject, aud It is a judicious one,
especially as his lecture entitled "The Duel between
France aud Germany" has been extensively pub
lished, and therefore familiar to most of those who
would wish to attend on Monday evening. Mr.
Sumner is the most scholarly of our states men, and
bis high reputation as an orator Is wellkncwa. A
discussion by blm of the character and services of
Lafayette cannot but be of great interest, and a
crowded house may be anticipated lor Monday
evtning.

THE ARMY OF THE L0IUU.
Ka Orcnulzatlou lin fronierta and Field of
Operations.
IWr.-on (Oct. 10) Cvrrnjioivlence Inlepeiulanve Delje.
1 have just made, la company with a friend
well acquainted with tho country where th-j
Armv of the Loire is being formed, a rapid ex
cursion, which permits mie to idve you the sub
joined accurate particulars. This Army of the
Loire is composed of not more thau about eighty
thousand men. It id commanded by General de
la Motte Rouge, the 6ame general, if I be not
mistaken, who was replaced by M. Tamlaier In
the command of the National (Juard of I'aris.
This army extends from here to Tour, following
a line which pn.-es by ilonnres. It is t,ia
posed, first, of troops of the line, ne recruit-,
and soldiers who escaped from the disaster of
tfgdau; secondly, of Mobile Guards, and third!,
ol Frec-fchooteiB. Tho Hue is not, perhaps so
homogeneous as could be de-ircd, and more dis
cipline mlht also be wlsLcd ff.
.Many ol the soldiers from Sedan have re
mained, aa it were, struck with discourage Jient,
and a little coweJ. They aro like thosa wli
were eetn at Paris. Versailles, and many other
towns where they sought reluge in the first
half of the mouth of September, either volun
tarily or in obedience to orders. 15ut their
Fpirits have already been revived by tho Mjbilo
Guards. The latter, iu truth, are for the m jst
part very line, robust men. It may easily be
fcen that they belong to classes of tUe popul i
tiou relatively superior, very superior, Indeed,
to there which supply the ordinary soldiers,
Genciwily thefe Mobiles are the sons of farmers,
small agriculturlbts, artisans in easy circum
stances, and tradesmen. It is obvious that they
bave been well fed, and are full if vigor. On
tie average they are j, 24, and 2" years id ae,
and consequently they form a mass much more
solid than tho youths of from 'M to 21 who con
stitute the yotiug line.
With time and good ollicers tho Mobiles will
certainly become superb troops. Perhaps, un
fortunately, there may not be sufficient time.
As to the present leaders, there are in general
too many young meu who under the empire
demanded an epaulette in order to be able to
amuse themselves and dress like soldiers. How
ever, many of them might bo mentioned who
are equal to the task imposed upon them. How
ever ibis may be, tho Mobiles have not perfect
confidence in their ollicers, and the latter fear
that their men will not stand firmly, especially
beore the artillery. As to the Free-shooters,
some of them are most excellent.
