The Jury In tho case of Bolt, n
Philadelphia preacher Involved In an
ugly scandal, disagreed on Saturday,

The President and Mr. Hayes, ac

Ington on Thursday. Tho President
attended the annual banquet ot the
New York Chamber of Comraerce,Mon
day evening, and tnado a few remarks
of a hopeful character regarding tho
political and business prospects of the
country.
We learn from New York that,at a
meeting there Tuesday of Representa
tives of tho several coal carrying com
panies, It was unanimously resolved,
on a resolution offered by Mr. Sloan
and seconded by Mr. Hoyt, that all the
coal companies should suspend mining
for the month ot Juno or July, after
which tho meeting adjourned to await
Mr. Gowen's approval by cablo tele
gram. This Is a very important step
In the coal trade, the effect ot which
can scarcely bo foreseen, If carried out.
The Slienango Valley News says;
"In 1875 the Iron product In tho Slie
nango Valley was 137,025, and the pro
duct ot the Mahoning Valley 115,093
tons, total 253,018 tons. In 1870 tho
product of tho Shcnango Valley Is esti
mated to havo been 150,000 tons, and
tho product of tho Mahoning Valley
131,000 tons; total 284,000 tons. This
gives tho Shcnango Valley an Increaso
of 12,075 tons, and the Mahoning Val
ley an Increase ot 18,007 tons; total In
crease for tho two vallojs 30,083 tons.
The total capacity of tho two sections
Is 581,000 tons. Ot 32 stacks In the
Slienango Valley, 8 are In blast, and of
22 in tho Mahoning Valley, 11 aro In
blast."
The statuo of Fltz Greeno Hal.
leck, In Central Park, New York, was
unveiled Tuesday afternoon.ln presenso
ot a large and distinguished tssetublago.
The ceremonies began with a parade ot
the Seventh Regiment and Veteran
Corps, which was reviewed by President
Hayes and General Sherman from the
steps ot General James Grant Wilson's
house. After the review a procession,
Including the military, committee ot ar
rangements and Invited guests, pro
ceeded to the site ot the statue. Tho
programme consisted ot muslo, nn ad
dress by William Cullen Bryant, tho
unveiling of the statuo and Its preseu.
tatlon to tho city by President Hayes,
the acceptance by Mayor Ely, the read
ing ot a poem by Wblttler, and an ad
dress by Wm. Allen Butler.
In consequence ot the failure of
tho lata Congress to make an appropria
tlon for the army, an order has been Is
sued reducing the force to about 19,000
;men. All soldiers and non commission
ed officers whose terms expire before
November are to ba mustered out pre
vious to June 80, unless they glvo no
tice of their Intention to ro-enlist, and
all minors and men who from any ca use
are not fitted for good soldiers will bo
discharged. Officers on recruiting ser
vice will have their choice of returning
to their regiments or be put on the list
ot thoso waiting orders. Happily, we
have no special occasion for the use of
an nrray slnco tho troops have been
withdrawn from the capitals of the
Southern Statos and now that the In
dians aro making their submission.
Attorney General Lear, of this
commonwealth, has rendered a decision
In relation to tho $3,000,000 gold bonds
ot Pennsylvania, which are due in Au
gust and aro then to bo redeemed. The
Interest on tltem was paid In gold, and
tho question for his decision was, are
the face of tho bonds to bo redeemed In
gold or currency? He decides that they
re to be redeemed in currency, and
bases his decision upon the renowned
decision ot tho United Statos Supreme
Court, 12th Wallace, In which they de
cided that If Micro was no specific con
tract, and the bonds did not say "to be
redeemed In gold or specie, why then
the current money of tho day was tho
legal redeeming currency." Ho says
that It makes a difference of 210,000
In favor of tho State, averaging tho
prlco of gold at tho present time, and
that tho holders of the bonds lmvo to
submit to ridemptlon In currency, be
causo, alleged by the courts and by tho
Attorney General, It Is law.

Tho Dictionary as nn Instructor.
We notice as a matter well worth mentioning
that at tho recent great publishers' trade sale
in Now York, tho books that wore most In de
mnnd and brenght the best prices wero Web-
ster's Dictionaries, from tho famous Quarto to
the neat and handy pocket edition. This fact Is
a good indication of tho Mmost universal popu
lailty of these books, and of the growing pdbllo
demand for them. It Indicates also a fact of far
greater Importance, and that is the Intercut tho
people nre. taking In the study of their own
