E. II. Rauch offered an amendment tn
the rules, basing the number of delegates
on the vote cast at the previous State elec
tion, Instead of tho previous Gubernatorial
elections, as heretofore. Referred to next
County Convention for adoption.
The following resolutions were then read
and unanimously adopted I
Rtmhtd, That the Democrats of Carbon
county In general meeting assembled re
affirm the principals of the party e Incul
cated bv Jefferson and Jackson and their
long line of successors to the present day.
Howhcd, That as we understand the fun
damental principles or tho Democratic par
ty, they are the supremacy of the Constitu
tion and laws) the right of each Btate to
conduct Its own domestic affairs J a free bal
lot.an honest count anil unconditional obed
ience to the popular will as expressed by
means of the ballot entire religious free
dom and tho liberty of the publio press and
of speech strict economy In all public af
fairs and rigorous enforcement of law in nil
rases of official fraud, defalcation, corrup
tion, bribery or other misdemeanor.
Retohtd, That the Democracy Is now, ns
in all former times, unconditionally opposed
to monopolies, subsides, grants ol public do
main or special luvnrs upon any corpora
tions, parties or combinations of Individuals.
Jleiolvea, That corporations instituted to
develop tho resources of the country ; to
mine our coal and iron on it to Bttmuiaie in-
lustry and promote profitable Industrial and
commercial relations among the people, are
public, as well as private blessings. Jn tne
other hand, corporations upon whom special
privileges, powers or so-called rights ore
coulerrcd, such as individuals cannot enjoy
under tbe common or general laws ol the
land are contrary tn the spirit of Republican
government and the people owe it tn them
selves to unite and employ all constitution
al and ieuceful means to purge the State
and Country of all such odious combinations
and encroachments upon their rights and
interests.
Renohed, That the passage of the Fund
ing bill by the Democrats of the 40th Con
gress, reducing the interest on the public
lebt Iroin-B to A iwr cent., which was vetoeil
by the fraudulent iKicupant of the Presiden-

Tho examination of teachers held In
the scliia) house here was, if we are cor
rectly inlonned, very thorough and rigid,
and applicants were given to understand
that liereuller they must be preoared tn
answer all and every question that may be
deemed necessary by the examiner. They
should know also that it is of importance,
previous tn tbe examination, ns to where
ihey expect to be hh applicant, lor tbe fact
was announced that certificates were issued
according to salaries paid ; besides that, lo
cal matters have their eflcrt. It would be
u good idea lor applicants to acquaint them
selves with the several districts, salaries
paid, number of resident applicants, their
jiopularity, family connections, &c. How
ever, it applicants should fail in one district
they need not be entirely discouraged Trv
the next that district might require just
such a person. If bo, a certificate will be
loithcoming. It seems, under the present
regime, tliut female applicants are not so
favorably received) although we believe
they never receive the recognition they
should hi this particular. It would be a
good idea forfemalo applicants to read the
news of the day (though denied the right
of Irutichise), and become posted in politl
cal history. We suggest this, because the
question was asked who Roscoe Conkling

Ihe difficulty at Albany? Thev were not
asked what interest he had In the Sprague

succeeded. Must know how our Presidents
are elected, but need not tell how Hayes
managed to draw four years salary as Presi

late unpleasantness betweeu the North and

fact they should not only have a thorough
knowledge of all the brunches taught in our
common schools, but be prepared tu answer
anything. It might be welt to know how

Tho Conl Trade.
ThladelpMa Ztdger, Auq. 16th I lathe
anthracite coal trade tbe production con
tlbues large and tbe demand good. All the
coal producing companies are working upon
full time, and they are now putting coal
upon tho market at the rate of over a half,
million tons per week, but tbe demand Is
fully up to the supply. The anthracite pro
duction thus far this year It about three and
one-quarter millions of tons greater than for
the same time last year, but tbe market is
taking It all, and the August prices rule
steady, with very Utile evidence of any cut
ting under the schedules. There has been
some difficulty reported about water trans
pot tation, which is causlngan accumulation
of coal at the shipping ports but, If this did
not exist, there Is no doubt that tbe compan
ies would dispose of all their production at
tho present rate of output for an Indefinite
period. It Is complained nt Port Richmond
that, while orders are plentiful, the stock on
tho wharves accumulate Irom the scarcity
of vessels to carry It away. Last week tbe
cars landed 6600 tons more than there was
shipped, although the week's shipments
reached thu large figure of 34,500 tons. On
Saturday the stock on tbe Port Richmond
wharves was 134,400 tons. This coal is
awsitlng delivery mostly to tbe eastward.
The steam colliers are carrying away about
60,000 tons a month, but the sailing vessels
usually transport three times as much, and
they are scarce just now at Port Richmond.
The Southern lumber and phospato trades
and ice carrying from Maine are occupying
part of the fleet ordinarily relied upon for
coal transportation but this scarcity of ves
sels, probably, will be only temporary, as
the prevailing freight of $1 75 per ton to
Boston, with quick loading, will quickly
induce tbe skippers to bring their schoon
ers this way. If tho sailing vessels
can get good freights for coal carrying
they will soon come into the Dela
ware in sufficient numbers to take all the
coal away that there is wharf room to land.
Despite tho prevailing idea among people,
who do not know much about the shipping
Interests of the country, there are plenty of
schooners afloat, and their managers are al
ways on the lookout for the best freights.
This temporary Orerstockingof the wharves
has produced a suggestion in some quarters
for a three days' temporary stoppage of
work, so as to reduce the aupplv, but the
proposal meet opposition. From the pres
ent outlook, and the lact that the month of
August is half over, without anything being
done about a stoppage, the prevailing opin
ion in local circles is that there is no likeli
hood ol there being a stoppage. The ad
vanced freights will soon cure any glut
caused by scarcity of vessels. This branch
of the subject having been considerably dis
cussed recently, it has caused some of our
Philadelphia coal consumers to marvel ex
ceedingly at a phase ol our retail coal trade
that Is somewhat puzzling. At retail here
we are paying $5 50 to $8 25 per ton for
coal. It cosla $1 75 per ton to get cool car
ried from this city to Boston; yet the Boston
quotation for coal at retail is $5 76$8 per
ton. Either they pay about $1 60 too little
or we pay about $1 50 too much, ir these
quotations are correct. Some of the mys
teries of "drawbacks" on eastern shipments
oro possibly responsible for this discrimina
tion against us.
Tbe Ledger recently contained a brief
summary in its news columns of the census
report on the anthracite coal mining indus
tries ol Pennsylvania, made by the special
agent, Mr. Raphael Pumpelly. It appears,
Irom his compilation, thatin the eight coun
ties reporting there were 273 separate estab
lishments or collerirs, with an average
yeurljf capacity of 140,348 tons of 2UU0
pouncjs. The aggregate metchunlable pro
duct lor the yeir ending June 1st, 1880, was
ions oi zuuu pounds, and its
volue, when delivered for trunsiiortallon,
wus 40,331,081. the average vulue of the
coal per ton at place of shipment being
$1 47. The maximum yearly capacity ol
thu reporting cilleries was 40.772.UtlO Lous.
and the excess of this capacity, over the
amount actually mined, when considered in
connection with the last lew years and the
slate of trade in 1880,aH'urds another strong
indication ol the wisdom and nei-essitv ol
judicious efi'jrts to establish reasonable rela
lions between pioduclloii and consumption.
As comnurcd with 1870 the out nut ot last
year shows an increase from 15,5110,257 tons
10 2c,ijj(j2 tons, a gatu ol iv.v percent.,
while the gross value increased only 6.25
perceut. The apparent lull ih the average
price per ton Is Irom S2 40 toil 47. a re
duction much greater than run be lully ac
counted lor by tbe fluctuations in the cur
rency occasioned by the restoration of siecie
payments. The number of acres of coal
lands reported as being attuched, either di
rectly or indirectly, to existing collcries was
104,852, and their mineral value was csti
muted tubeil02.614.844. This Ueiclmlvo
if 53,385 acres of nou producing coal lands,
valued at $25,702,500, which is held in re
serve by important companies. Of tbe
104,852 acres retained as tbe coal lands In
which the reports relste, 13,852 are described
us having been worked overt but in nearly
all of these mines the lower scams remain,
und' the land is, therefore, regarded as coal
producing. The entire area of the anthra
cite lands is estimated al 230,781 acres. The
total value or me capital employed in an
thracite mining, including the value or the
worked lauds, is estimated at $150,101,106.
and tbe ratio of real estate to total capital is
ooo percent, ins piani is estimated at
26.51 per cent, or tbe total capital, and tbe
ratio of the workina- canacitv In lhA tatal
capacity Is estimated: at 6.15 per rent. The
ratio oi tne value oi me annual product to
tbe total capital is 26.86 per cent. The
average number of acres of coal lands at
tached to a colliory is reported to be 604.
The oversee number of hands employed at
each colliery is 2511, and the average amount
of wages paid yearly $70,414. The number
o tons raised yearly per man, counting two
boys as one mall, was in the last census
year 454 4,a gain of 41 8 per cent, over 1870.
The total number of employees was 08,239,
classified as follows; 10,685 miners, 47,410
laboreis, and 1,244 as administrative force.
Of these employees 15,564 were men em
ployed above ground, 36.052 were men em
ployed below ground, 11,081 were boys un
der sixteen years of age employed above
ground, and 3,802 were boys under sixteen
years of age employed below ground. Of
the total force 28.7 per cent, were miners
and 23 ier cent. boys. Tho wages paid to
them were $21,680,120, the average yearly
income of each man being $350 08. The
percentage of the year during which they
worked was 70.09 percentage of year lost by
stoppages, Ac, wus 28.60, and the percentage
of year lost in strikes 0.72. As compared
with 1870 there was a marked reduction in
the Krcenlege of time lost in strikes. The
number of boys employed above ground
also increased during the last ten vears
much more rapidly than the number of
uuun employees, llie total increase being
Irom 52,882 in 1870 to 68,239 In 1880. Dur
ing the same period the average actual pro
duct per colliery increased from 60,320 to
100,488 tons. Tbe percentage of the total
production obtained in each of the anthra
cite counties in 18S0 was as follows i
Luzerne,. , 39.25
Schuylkill 26.69
Lackawanna 20.59
Northumberland.. 7.65
Carbon 2.05
Dauphin. , 1.64
Columbia... 1.16
Susquebauna. 0.07
In addition to tbe merchantable product
given above, 83 cilleries report 7,060,447
tons or impure coal and dust, which is at
present unmerchantable. This is 21.8 per
cent, ol their product, and, If tbe same pro
portion holds in other col leries, there would
be not less than 0,382,086 tons nf unmer
chantable "culm" produced, to which no
value is assigned. A calculation in refer
ence to the probable duration of the supplies
I the anthracite fields arrives at the con
clusion that If only 28 per cent of the con
tents of the anthracite ooal field ran be
mined and marketed, it Is estimated that
the production iiraiilhracite.afler 1880. will
reach 4,00040,000 el tons before tbe field
is exhausted. 1 rfould indicate that tbe
production of the census year could be
maiutaioed for 146 yean.
A srnopsis.of the report of tbe mine i
spectors of the anthracite districts of Penn
sylvsnla for 1880 estimates the production
of Ibe Schuylkill district In the year at
8,676,228 tons, a decrease from 1879 of 1,382,
027 tons. Of this production 479,826 tons
were consumed or sold at the various col
leries. The quantities shipped to market
were t From the Pottsvllle district, 1161 ,070
tons 1 from the Bhenaadoah district, 3,543,
363, and from the Sbamokin district, 3,285,
210 tons. It Is sis ted that the Pottsrille dis
trict gave employment to 6,013 men and
boys, the Shenandoah to 11,471, and the
Sbamokin district to 11,616, so that the
number of employees in the three districts
was 30,000.
The total tonnage of anthracite coal from
all the regions for tbe week ending August
6, as reported by the several carrying com
panies, amounted to 551,186 tons, against
406,862 tons in tbe corresponding week last
year, an Increase of 144334 tons. The to
tal amount of anthracite mined for the year
is 16,640,779 tons, against 12.423.483 tons
for the ame period last year, an increase of
4,11 1 tons.
