This latter event did not happen until Friday morning, when they were ect down liorc, bag and baggage, about 300 strong.

They are now thrown upon tholrown resour ces, or left to tho cold charities ot the world. But It servo them right. They mieht nave Known irom mo uegimnug that the sentiments of the community were opposed to the venture, nnd they should have counted the possible cost before entering upon it. But, as it is now too late to learn, it is tn bo hoped that hereafter they will be more prud ent, and that all their futuro steps will be guided by tho lamp of experience. With both roadi again In operation, things, though more lively than they were a fortnight ago, are rar irom wwu they should be. And now it is the miners who are causing the trouble by an attempt at demonstrating to the re-.t of the world that if an Individual can barely subsist by working steadily, his condition may be vastly Improved by Idleness. They call It n strike, but It's a slrlko in the wrong direction, I opine. If true, what I've learned to-day from various sources, much distress already exists In tho Summit Hill and through out the Panther Creek Valley, where ths people are clamoring for the where withal to keep soul and body together, and the merchants, heeolng the lessons taught tliein by past experience, refuse to fell except for cash, and this the majority havo not cot. So what's to be done? Go to work? Not they, as they are evidently determined to ascertain how much misery. self-Imposed, a man's able to bear. And jet there Is certainly suflicientcausH for a strike, but a strike in a different direction an entire new depiiture ; a striking out en ma?bR from the poverty stricken coal Helds ot Pennsylvania to the vast agricultural regions of tho Great West. Nothing else will do, and the sooner men will act noon It the better. Why starve "down In a coal mine," when oompara tive ease and comfort may bo yours eUcwhrre? It Is, Indeed, the only way In which the much tnlkud of labor prob lem ran be lastingly anil practically solved. The consumer of to-day must necome tho producer of to-morrow. If there Is to be overpiodiictltin, let it bu overproduction of the stall of life. It would at least avert tho dangers of starvation.

Aud now, after three months' rellec tion, Judge Dreher has at last granted Patrick O'Donnell another chance to do legal battle for life. As no other d clsion had been ex pec ttd, tho granting to tun prisoner or a new trial uia not surprise anybody and was accepted by all rather as a matter of course. That the prisoner will have better luck In the hands of a more intelligent Jury Is not tn be doubted. Indeed, the number of those who predict an unqualified acquit tal Is already by no means small. How ever It may terminate, his second trial will surely he tuoro interesting than the first That no win tie amy defended uy Mr. KalUfus may he accepted as a fore gone conclusion, also that a strong, al most superhuman effort will bo made to Invalidate the testimony tit certain spurious witnesses,'1 (as Mr. K. calls them) ; nnd as tlie "sinews" will not be wanting to secure prominent assist ant counsel, n grand legal fray will cer tainly uu in store tor us during the un yuins sesslou of the Court of Oyer and Terminer, Continually nnd freely mingling with all sorts of people, I surely ought to know somihiug of that great power behind the throne public sentiment nnd tills, I assure you, is rapidly changing in favor ut O'Donnell, the man who, ns nearly all nre agreed, neither looks nor acts likea guilty man.

East Mauch Chunk has at last been made happy hy the appointment ot E. 11. Cooke to the position ot postmaster. That he will fill the position with credit to himself, satisfactorily to tho public aud acceptably to the department, no one doubts, although many were at first opposed to his appoiutmeut.
