THE COIL TRADE A Partial ta la "ylklll-Taa Market The Aaaalmatraf f ArbttratUa Vanailu lr JHTl-Tha Complete Tciim fr (he Week- , Kt. As foreshadowed last week, several collieries In tbe Schuylkill region which had the alterna tive of selling at a loss or stopping (or the winter, hare Riven notice that they will itop for the winter after today. This Is the direct effect of the high tolls, the redaction not be in jr. su di ciest to rueet the demand of the trade. If the aenson is long enough other collieries will fol low tbe example, and will continue to follow it until either the supply is sufficiently redueed or extremely cold weather comes to the rescue and raises the rates. The mines in the Bhamokln region, which were in difficulty by reason of a withdrawal of a number of men from the W. B. A., will close for the winter. The market is In the same uncertain and un desirable condition. The prices are nominal only, and were it not that coastwise freights are now very low, there would be almoHt nothing done at this port. As it Is, some sizes cannot be sold even with forcing. Committees from the organizations of the miners and operators of Schuylkill county have been appointed lor the purpose of considering the question of wagos for 1871. This Is a good movement, and is well timed. .The committees consist of six members from each organization. If tbe meetings are conducted in the right spirit great good may result to both parties. The movement originated with the operators, and the president of the V. B. A. in appointing the members ot his committee makes the following tatemcnt: "My reason for appointing the committee Is to harmonize, If possible, aud bring annul a concilia tory understanding between all parties concerned, viz., the miners, operators, and P. H. K. Co., and not be, s;we have been heretofore, In opposi tion to each other, entailing misery on all and hatred towards each other, besides giving our rnemles, the soulless corporations of Luzerne t-ounty, the opportunity of reaping rich harvests by onr unwise aud foolish actions." This is extremely good, but it should hive been paid long ago. If these 6entiments,"no matter however im perfectly they may be expressed, are the senti ments of the miners generally, they, the miners, are much nearer gaining what they really wish than they think. An obstinate, headstrong, narrow-minded spirit, which will co only one side, will never result in any good. One party in this condition makes the other neces sarily so. Neither will move, and both coma to grief. Hut more discretion will be necessary on the part of the miners as to how ther trr to enforce measures which even some of their own Bumbcr consider uniust. The following is the complete summary of the trade for tbe week ending November 11, as re ported for the Pottsville Mimrs' Journal of to day: . - 1SK9. Anthracite. P. A. R. K....I fcci. Cannl. . .

One of the two begau narra ting a pitiful tale about his family, and repre sented that he bad some valuable goods at the Custom Ilouee, to take which ont of bond he needed only $275. He finally enlisted the sympathies of Mrs. Yokel, and he produced what purported to be two gold watches, two silver goblets, and half-a-dozen silver spoon, which he offered as collateral for the money. One of the three men bad $l'J5, which he ten dered the unfortunate fellow, and Mrs Yokel advanced the remaining f 150.

Bismarck on the Armistice. etc. Kite utc, etc.. me. FROM EUROPE. Blatnarrk'n Vrralao of the Armlatlre Affair. Lokcom, Nov. Vi. Bismarck has issued a circular to the representatives of North Ger many in foreign Statss, giving his version of the late negotiations for an armistice. The ap pointment of such a man as Thiers by the French to conduct the negotiations a man of each wide experience had excited hopes of propositions that might be successful. Kins William was even more eager for peace than Thiers. Bismarck proposed a trace for four weeks, the position of the respective armies meanwhile to be fixed, in order that elections might be held throughout France. The only effect on the French side of this truce would have been the stoppage of waste of ammunition from their forts. Thiers regretted that the revictualling of Paris was not provided for, saying it was an indispensable condition of the proposed armis tice. This absurd demand to go back two months in the prosecution of the war was im possible. Subsequently an offer for a short truce was made. Thiers reported this to mem bers of the Provisional Government, by whom it was rejected. The inference is that the French Government dared not consult the people, and only male advances looking to peace In order to satisfy and quiet neutral powers. Blamarck and von IJeunt.
