The LcKUlMMe Committee of Inquiry The Kngllun System of Arbitration An Important Offer to the Schuylkill Conuty Men by the Operator The Complete QTonnagc for the Week, Ktc. a. The Legislative committee appointed for the purpose ot inquirlnir Into the coal troubles has concluded Its researches during the present week, and will repoi t shortly. 1 hat the report, however, after all the expensive proceedings of the committee, v ill be of any practical use is greatly doubted. They will probably recom mend arbitration as the method of settling the troubles, they not having found that any of the railroad companies have violated their charters; but this recommendation will amount to nothing nnless the parties Interested see fit to adopt it. By arbitration they probably mean the particular method of croceedW in use In some of the English mines, which has there proved satisfac tory, and not the so-called arbitration between the rival interests at present in nee in Schuylkill county, which does no good whatever in over coming the difficulties. Under the present cir cumstances any new plan which promises suc cess Is now looked upon favorably. The miners are set one way and are determined not to yield an inch; the operators and railroad men are as firmly set in an opposite direction. Both are about equally strong, and the consequence is a dead lock. With this state of affairs, the present is perhaps the easiest time to introduce a new f j stem, but the trouble is how to Introduce it, JIow shall the different interests be brought to agree to any terms satisfactory to each? The Nottingham plan of arbiratlon, we believe it is called, is the one to which all parties now lean favorably. But one dllllculty is how to run it in connection with the W. B. A., which the miners will not give up. If the miners insist upon retaining their organization entire, and under their old leaders, with the same power etUl in their hands, the new plan cannot be in troduced. II is, however, possible to bring it to pass in connection with the Union alone; but the leaders, by the very system of arbitration, will have to be deprived of the despotic powers they now possess. And if the miners do agree to this, which It is very probable they will, con sidering that they are mostly tired of the gov ernment under which they have been working for so long, the other side must also concede something, and there are many things that they could concede if they felt so inclined, which would go far to produce a better feelln? all around. One thlDg especially will have to be done away with before there is any true arbitra tion, or before the new system can be of any value, and that is that the operators forever cease making private arrangements with the miners to strike for the operators' benefit, when prices are low and the supply of coals plenti lull. The operators will have to arbitrate mutually with the miners for a better condition of the market, or take the chances of what will happen according to the legitimate laws of trade. Arbitration, however, is as necessary between the carrying companies and the oporators of our regions as between either the companies and the miners, or the operators and miners. If the plan pro posed could be extended to include this also, and be of actual service, its usefulness would be incalculably greater. Since the judicial investigation has been closed, the operators of the Schuylkill region have made a special and important offer to their men. The proposition looks towards a epeedy resuption of work. It was agreed upon by the operators on Wednesday, although it was not then made public. The following is the substance of it: I. The W. B. A. to abandon all future attempts to control collieries In any manner, or to interfere di rectly or Indirectly In tlie matter of employment or discharge of any one, so tiat the operator shall have the exclusive control and management of his works. .. . V 1L The operators to agree that no one la to be discharged simply on account of his belonging to the W. B. A., or on account of any part heretofore taken in behalf of the W. B. A., but that all men are to be left free to join the W. B. A. or not, as they think proper. t , The above two clauses are to be Imperative and binding, and are not to be changed or varied by any reference or arbitration whatever. HI. Work to be resumed as soon as practicable, and the rate of wages for the year 1671 to be ad justed as follows : A Board of Arbitration and Oon cilatlon consisting or six members of the W. B. A. and six operators, chosen by their respective orga nizations, is to meet at Fottsvllle on or before the 80th of of April, to whom shall be submitted the re spective offers of each party. I The Board of Arbitration and Conciliation Is to have the power of deciding between the offers sub mitted, or rejecting cither and adopting a third, or if they are unable to agree, they are to call In the empire (who shall be selected and agreed upon be lore any discussion of the propositions) whose deci sion upon the rate of wages for tne year 1871 la to u final And bindluor nuon both Darties. IV. Such Board of Arbitration and Conciliation with an nmnire. whose decision Is to be tlnal, la to be maintained for the future settlement and adjust ment of al'. differences between the parties, except that the two first articles of this memorandum are cardinal ones, which are not to be varied or changed by any reference or armtrauon wuavever. William Kendrick-, E. Bokda, J. K. SIG PRIED, On behalf of the operators of Schuylkill county. Tt ram.lni tn Iia app.n what action this tirODO- eition will bring forth. Poor Schuylkill has to bear the brunt of the trouble, and some special arrangement will have to be agreed upon for its benefit. It is the most lawless of all the coal regions, and consequently the operators mere worst time. It also has not the ad vantage of having its coal mines and its trans portation facilities managed by one and the eame interest. Its miners are more ignorant than those of other regions, being mostly Irish, and consequently are harder to vet alons with. The majority of de cent miners, the English, German, and Welsh, have long since emigrated toother parts. The other regions have no idea of the peculiar troubles of the Schuylkill region, which accord ing to all accounts are increasing continually. The suggestion of the Miner? Journal made lately that the region be declared in a state of disorder and organization (which indeed it is), and that, as a final remedy, it be declared under martial law and the military invoked for its relief, is decidedly a good one; and if something is not speedily done, just that thing will come to naas. and nothing else.

INDUSTRIOUS YILLUXS. A Doxen nohlerle In Two Week Hav ing Rannacked Dwellings, They Attempt to Bnrn Them Down. About two weeks ago, a dusky criminal named Charles St. Clair was discharged from prison, having served out his term for robbery. But he could not restrain his propensity for pilfering, and Immediately commenced with a pal named Thomas Brown, alike in color and fellow feeling, in the commission of more hemous onenses man had been hitherto attempted. They robbed, the residence of Mr. Webb. No. 519 8. Eiehlh street. the residence of Mr. Server, No. oia o. cigmn street, and that of Mr. Asch, No. 417 Spruce street, and in each case endeavored to conceal their theft by arson, which, however, failed them. A coupfe of days since, Officer J.Carrlgan, of the r uin district ponce, arreeieu tuem ior their deoredations In Mr. Webb's house, and they were lodged in prison to await a further hearing on Monday next. Upon their arrest Detectives cordon ana iiaggerty, together wnn the officer named, commenced to ''work up the case." and discovered that they had stolen from Mr. Webb's residence a very valuable lot of silverware and clothing. They entered Mr. Server's houee, carried off a large amount of clothiDg, and deliberately removed a heavy car pet from one of the floors while the family were asleep. To conceal their theft they started a fire under the stairway, and then made their escape. Mrs. Server awoke in time to save tne premifes from destruction. Tbey burst open toe doors of Mr. ascqs residence, Spruce street, carried off nearly all the silverware and a large quantity of clothing, and built a fire under tne .stairway. Before it was extinguished a lanre portion of the household furniture bad beea destroyed. The detectives, after an industrious search. found a portion of the stolen property in Bouth Camden, where Brown had disposed of it. In addition, they have brought to light six other cases of burglary In which the culprits were concerned, and in each the villains attempted to cover up their depredations by burning down the dwellings. Credit Is due to the officers named for their zeal In arraigning two despe rate fellows before the bar of justice. TUE CITY'S GROWTH. The Building Permits Issued During jiiarcn.

For pul monary 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 acts, and to infuse into the system an indescribable power equal to the natural powet 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 energy which one who has been sick a long time knows the value of nt cannot fully describe. The great objec tion, however, to all tar preparations has been their unpleasant taste, and consequent lia bility to sickness and nauseatethe stomach. We have before ns, however, a preparation of the 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 mean "Dr. Wishart's Tine Tree Tar Cordial, " a real, genuine, bona fide medioinal cordial, distilled from the pine tree by a process known only to the Doctor himself, the sale and popularity of which are only equalled by the amount of Buffering it has relieved, and the number of diseases it is so well calculated to effectually cure. In the Pine Tree Tar Cordial the invalid may be sure he has a remedy of very extraordinary power for throa and lung affections, and when taken in con junction with the "Great American Dyspepsia rills," an infallible cure for dyspepsia, liver complaint, sick headache, and the many ail ments arising from a disordered state of the liver and digestive organs. In onr sphere as publishers we feel some degree of cautiousness In what we recommend to our readers, but when we know of any thing of value to the public we shall not hesi. tate to make it known through our columns. We advise those of our readers who are Batter ing from dyspepsia, etc, to give Dr. Wisbart'f celebrated remedies a triaL A medical expert, holding honorable colle giate diplomas, devotes his entire time to the examination of patients at the office parlors Associated with him are three consulting phy sicians of acknowledged eminence, whose ser vices are given to the publio free of charge. This opportunity is offered by no other in stitntion in the country. Thousands of certificates of absolute cure (when all else failed to afford relief), as wejl as recommendatory letters without number, have been received by Dr. Wishart, the pro prietor, attesting the uniform success with which they have been employed. Many of said letters are from the highest sources, in cluding eminent statesmen, Governors, State judges, clergymen, etc. men slow to be con vinced, prejudiced perhaps at first, but feel ing themselves under a sense of duty bound to tell the Doctor what they had done for them and to recommend them to others. The Great American Dyspepsia Pills and Pine Tree Tar Cordial are sold by all druggists throughout the worlj. They can also be obtained at Dr. WISHAET'S GREAT FAMILY MEDICINE STOUE, No. 232 North SECOND Street Philadelphia, where a successful practising physician can be consulted each day, free of charge.
