The suspension still continues, and is as gene
ral us tuo ofllcers of the W. 13. A. could possibly
wake it under the most favorahle clrcum
etauces. The only collieries which are work
ing are about lour or five in the Schuylkill
region, about the same number in the western
part of Sehuvlklll county, and those In the
Lykens Valley, where the W. B. A. has no
jurisdiction. There are rumors of several more
starting In Schuylkill, aad also of those which
arc running stopping through the eltorts of the
W. B. A., but, as far as can be ascertained,
these are rumors only.
In the Wyoming region the men are taking;
things coolly, wailing for the suspension to come
to a natural termination; but from Schuylkill we
have reports of violence in several instances
between the striking men and thoe employed
in the working collieries. This gives the sus
pension there much more the appearance of a,
regular strike, violence and lawlessness being
the almost inevitable accompaniment of idleness
in that region. It is to be sincerely hopod that
work will be resumed by the first of next month.
It certainly will be In the Scranton region If the
companies see it to their advantage, no matter
what the men may say.
The iron men of the Lehigh region com
plain that this suspension (suspensions gene
rally also) is greatly injurious to their business.
They suffer becauso they have no facilities for
blocking large amounts of coal, which, there
fore, has to be handled considerably before get
ting it to the furnace, thus putting them to
great expense. The coal also being exposed to
the weather, is not so good for their purpose.
They also complain that the uncertainty o
the duration of ttie strikes is a greit annoy
ance; but this inconvenience Is common to all
Laving anything to do with the trade.
The yearly reports from all the regions are
coming in slowly. The Miners' Joumil gives
the following ligures: Total from Schuvlkill
countv during the year. 3.133,4:?.) tons; North
umberland county, 1,020,713 tons; Columbia
county, 307,551 tous. aud Dauphin county (seml
bituminous), 453,817 tons. From the Lehigh
reuion 2,830,401 tons were sent; from the Cum
berland, including gas coal from West Virginia,
1.005,054 tons, a decrease fr 1870 of 185.873.
The Lykens Valley collieries produced 453,817
tons during the vear.
The reports of the mining inspectors for the
districts embracing Schuylkill, Northumber
land, and Dauphin counties state that there
are employed In and about the collieries of those
districts 30,000 men and bovs. Of this number
21,000 are employed in Schuylkill and 0000 In
the other counties. These counties miuedj iu
1870 6,10ft,500 tons, of which 4.020,518 were sent
to market, and t.e balance, 1,345,001, were, con
sumed in the regions. This would give 187 tons
mined to each man and boy during the year in
Schuylkill county, and 230 tons to each in the
other counties. Deducting one-sixth of the
employes as engaged in the improvements, etc.,
and other work about collieries, it would give
225 tons to each man and boy in Schuylkill, and
1278 to each in the other counties.
It is estimated that of the 4,010,518 tons of
foal mined, prepared, and sent to market,
about one-tlxth, or 820,000 tons, were wasted In
its preparation for market, and had to be hauled
from the collieries as waste and dirt.
The following is the complete summary of the
trade for the past week, as reported for the

'It will be seen that there were 102,83!) tons
of nil kinds sent to market for the week,
against 100,537 for the corresponding week last
year, of which 04,82(1 were anthracite. The
trade is also ahead of last year, so far, 351,830
tons.
"1 here Is, therefore, no use in running up
the prices of coal so much In our cities, as some
are trviuir to do. The mines that are working
will give a supply until arrangements are made
to go to work ajalD."
There are no quotations this week for freights
or prices lroni this port, as business is uracil
cally at a standstill, so far as the wholesale
trade is concerned. I or the coal on hand at
all the shipping ports the prices have advanced,
but the demand is not good

From this it will be seen that the exhibit for
this year s business Is anything but favorable.
Not only is the total amount far behind that of
last year, tat, as stated in a former article, the
business mux ncn mm ana an points con
trolled by the JNew lorn market Is not to be
compared with that of former years. This i
owing to the difficulty of the high rates of
transportation which the Philadelphia opera
tors have met wita this season, they not being
able to brine- coal to the near port of Philadel
phia from its mines at as cheap a rate as that at
which New York firm were able to obtain it
direct from their muJU more distant coal re
flon. It is only to t Southern ports where
New York business la nnt of the question as an
opposition to ours that th? Philadelphia figures
ehow any increase. In U other eases tho
figures of last year are far In advance. Ihe busi
ness with New York Itself shows the greatest
let-line, the amount sent in l&W being nearly
Ipubje (he amount sent In IttTV.
THE AITLE OF DISCORD.
Tha Knmpni In the llonrd of Stats Cbnrltlm,
aad What Oceaalaaed It-8me Light ea the
Nabiect.
It is very nnfortnnate that In many super
visory bodies there is usually one member wuose
eccentricities, or overbearing disposition en
tirely prevents any harmony of action. We
have had one lamentable illustration of this
nature In an important body In our city, which,
in the main, is constituted of gentleman of very
high attainments and Irreproachable standing
in the community. We have preseuted to us
now another, and an equally forcible illustra
tion in a body, which tuoug'h not local, has a
very important work In our city, viz.: The
Board of State Charities. JuU at the moment
when the public wereantieipatingthe reportof its
doings during the year 1870, we learn tnat there
is none, but in lieu thereof the surprising state
ment from the I'resldent of the board, General
Thomas L. Katie, that:
"It Is mv nnplensant duty to comnumlcate to you
the Legislatnrel oillclally my deliberately formed
opinion tliat tlie Ooard of Commisslouers of l'ubllc
Charities have reuilered no service of respoeuble
ImportHnee or value to the State, and that they
have left wholly unperformed duties which ttie pub
lic confidently looked to them to execute,"
followed by a sweeping charge of general In
competency on the part of the members, and
the asseveration that the experience of the
board inculcates another lesson, which in plain
terms is: "The evil of appointing gentlemen of
vuleperuh nt means to such ollices." Then comas
the condescenaing statement mat pernaps tuo
gentleman named would have done creditably had
they been paid a monthly stipend, and labored
tinder an '"exacting chief of bureau! '
For the purpose of getting a further insight
as to the chuec of this discord, which provoked
the General to "rush into print," we called upon
several gentlemen who have a knowledge of the
trouble in the board, and from them learned of
some queer ldiosyncraclcs manifested by the
General. On very many occasions these inter
rupted the harmony of the meeting, and drove
ote of the members into resigsing. Mr. Penul
man, of Pittsburg, one of the original members,
withdrew, Faying: "I must resign, or Kane
will drive me crazy." It happened 011
manv occasions when charitable institu
tions filed applications with the board
for State aid, that General Jvane would
often vote to triple the amount asisea tor, so
that when it was $1000, in the fulness of his
heart the General wanted it to have toOOO. As
the rest of the members could not coincide with
this, believing as they did that the institutions
were the best judges of their wants, there
first arose a spirit on their part of conscientious
opposition, and on his a leeling tuat nis coadju
tors were uencain mm in wistiom, auu as we
may learn from his letter to the Legislature, "in
Qrm of purpose." In response to our query,
"Was there any discord at the meetiugs?" the
answer wns on the part of our informant, -'Oh,
no; simply that on nearly all questions the vote
was 4 to 1, ana tnat one me ueuerai :
The latest event, whicu capped the climax to
the unpleasantness, was in reference to the
annual report of the board to the Legislature.
It is 6ald that this, the General, wl.o as we judge
from his letter, knew his own good seuse.andthe
incapacitj' of his compeers, wanted to write and
submit liinifelf. The members thought that it
should not be prepared by one alone, but by a
committee, which was accordingly appointed,
of three the General being its chairman. Ou
last Thursday week at Ilarrieburg this commit
tee Eat from a A. M. until a r. At., without
accomplishing anything, and on the following
day another session succeeaea wua no oetier
result. The General could not agree with his
brethren, the brethren could not, although with
due defferenee to his superior wisdom and expe
rience, coincide with him. Another meeting
was to have been held, but iu a moment when
leafct expected or not expected at all the Pre
sident presents a report 10 tuo icgisiatura wuu-
out tuo authority ot tne board, and in wmcn be
sets out witu tne statement: 1 nave not a
favorable report to present you of the 'doings'
of the board during the past year." Whether
such gentlemen as Ileister Glymer, of Reading,
Charles A. Woods, ot nttsburg, ueorge JJaw-
ton uoieman, or j.eoanon, ana iieorge l.
Harrison of Philadelphia, are all in the wrong
and General Thomas L. Kane in the right is for
tho reader to determine.
The Board of State Charities has accomplished
a great deal of good in Philadelphia. One of
the first institutions that attracted the attention
of Mr. Harrison, in this city, which formed a
part of the district under his jurisdiction, was
the Almshouse, nere ue discovered, in tne in
sane department, tnat curable patients were in
constant contact with those incurable and that
all were herded together by reason of a want of
room.
He had this matter before the bsard, and the
result was an official communication to Coun
cils, upon which $70,000 was obtained to build
additions (now going up). What for years had
been clamored for not only by the Guardians, but
grand juries, this board obtained by placing the
subject, in all its gravity, before the city govern
ment. Another error was rectified. In the
Hospital, where it had been customary for but
one physician in chief to attend a day, there
being at the time 850 patients In it, now four
attend, and not only is the ground gone over
more carefully, but the poor and debilitated
wards of tho city obtain as good a treatment as
though they were attended privately. Ihese
are two reforms which go to the credit of the
men who are "infirm of purpose."
Am for Tint Fkench. The ladles connected
with the French Bazaar are now collecting
materials to make Into clothing for tho wounded
French soldiers and their families. Linen,
flannels, cast-off clothing, and all articles of
wearing apparel will bo most thankfully re
ceived by Madame P. Jacob, No. 1)35 Bpruce
street, who has perfected arrangements whereby
the articles can be sent direct to Bordeaux tree
of cost, and there received by Countess de
Flavigny, President of the Committee of Re
lief. Many of the families of the French
soldiers are homeless In that desolate country,
and it is to bo hoped that the efforts of the
ladies of the recent French Bazaar to protect
them from the cold blasts of winter may bo
attended with great success.
Interfeking with an Officer. Yesterday
Lieutenant Leech, of the Sixteenth district,
called to account a man who was driving at an
immoderate rate on Thirty-sixth street, near
Market. While reading the driver a lecture, a
man named Beujamin 8mlth stepped up to the
Lieutenant, and dared him to arrest the law
breaker. He also gave the officer some impu
dence. Smith was then taken into custody, and
after a bearing before Alderman Lungren, was
held to bail to answer. Ihe driver of the team
was allowed to go about his business.
A Concert at thb Bedfohd Street Mis
sion. There will bo a free concert of vocal and
iustrumental music at the mission building, No.

Kensington Lodge, No. 211, A. Y. M., which
was constituted in 1823. and has always existed
since Its establishment in the old district from
which it takes its name, has given a new evi
dence of its prosperity. To-day its new edifice,
which hereafter will be known as the Kensing
ton Masonic Temple, will be completed. It is
erected at No. l'-V3Ji Richmond street. It has a
front of 84 feet, a depth of 77, and Is three
stories in height, though it rises far above the
buildings which flank it. It Is rough cast and
presents a very attractive appearance. The
upper stories are to be devoted solely to the
uses of the lodge, and for this purpose tho third
has been converted Into a beautiful meeting
room, 84 by 57 feet, and finished In haudsome
style. Adjoining this is a reception-room, 31 by
84 feet, not wanting In any comforts and conve
niences. The Lodge room Is entirely refitted with new
and handsome black walnut furniture, covered
with blue reps. The ceiling ar,d walls are fres
coed in a very handsome style. A magnificent
Axmin6ter carpet, the prevailing colors of which
are light blue and white, is spread upon the
floor. The gas fixtures arc In keening with tho
decorations of the room than which none finer
are in tho city. Connected with the lodge room
are two small ante-rooms, appropriately fur
nished. Above the reception room Is the ban
quenting room, JWbySl feet, which has been
lurnished with the necessary conveniences.
The cost of preparing the building for the
occupancy of the Lodge was about $12,000. The
committee having the supervision of tho work
upon it was thus composed: John Dorian,
Chairman; John W. Lee, Henry Einwechter,
Robert Peall, Enoch Remick, Jacob D. Enyard.
Alexander M. Long, Jonathan Dickinson, and

Lodge arc as follows: Edwin Smith, W. M.;
William (iodshal), S. W.; Alfred Clesrg. J. W.:
John W. Lee, Treasurer; and Charles K. Neisser,
Secretary.
The Building Committee have decided to open
the new temple on Tuesday and Wednesday

some edifice.
OUR COMMERCE.
Some Item Kegarrilnc It A Heavy Cutro.
At the wharf of Logan Brothers & Co. the
ship Research, 1300 tons burthen, has just
finifched taking on her cargo. This is very large
and valuable, consisting of 10,2(57 barrels of
refined petroleum, being the largest shipment
from this or any other port in the country. The
entire cargo is valued at $100,000. This indi
cates the wharfage facilities at Greenwich Point.

THE MEDICAL PRO-
PERTIE8 OF TAR.
The pine tree has long been known to pos
sess valuable medical properties. For pnl-
rronaiy diseases it is doubtful whether any
remedy has as yet been discovered equal to
it. It seems to change and renew the very
structure on which it acta, and to infuse into
the system an indescribable power equal to
the natural power before disease had even
taken hold of the body, so as to make, as it'
were, an entirely new tissue, and to give a
newness of life and eneroy which one who
has been sick a long time knowslhe value of
lit cannot fully describe. The greit objec
tion, however, to all tar preparations has been
their unpleasant ta&te, and consequent lia
bility to sickness and nauseate the stomach.
We have before us, however, a preparation of
tho kind referred to, which obviates all these
objections, and is as agreeable to the palate'
as it is valuable in the cure of disease. We
an "Dr. Wishart's Pine Tree Tar Cordial,"
a real, genuine, bona fide medicinal cordial,
distilled from the pine tree by a proces
known only to the Doctor himself, the salt
and popularity of which are only equalled bp
the amount of suffering it has relieved, axto
the number of diseases it is so well calculate
to effectually cure. In the Pine Tree T
Cordial the invalid may be sure he has
remedy of very extraordinary power for throi
and lung affections, and when taken in co:
junction with the "Great American Dyspeps
Pills, an infallible cure for dyspepsia, UveJ
complaint, sick headache, and the many ail
ments arising from a disordered state of thd
liver and digestive organs.
In our sphere as publishers we feel soma
degree of cautiousness in what we recommend
to our readers, uui wnen we Know of any
thing of value to the publio we shall not hesiJ
tate to make it known through our columns
We advise those of our readers who are sufferl
ing from dyspepsia, etc, to give Dr. Wishart':
celebrated remedies a trial.
A medical expert, holding honorable col
giate diplomas, devotes his entire time to t
examination of patients at the office parlo
Associated with him are three consulting p
sicians of acknowledged eminence, whose
vices are given to the publio free of charge
This opportunity is offered by no other ir
stitntion in the country.
'.thousands of certincates of absolute cat
(when all else failed to afford relief), as wf
as recommendatory letters without numbs
have been received by Dr. Wishnrt, the pi
prietor, attesting the uniform sncoess wi
which they have been employed. Many
said letters are from the highest sources, if

J
eluding eminent statesmen, Governors, 6taf
judges, clergymen, etc. men slow to be ccf
vinced, prejudiced perhaps at first, but fej
ing themselves under a sense of duty bou(

and to recommend them to others. The Gr
