"It has no member ship, no constitution, or contract o associa tion; in fact, no orcanizatlon, and has no more capacity to receive a legacy or a bequest than the court-house Itself."

Anthracite boat Trads. ,s The anthracite coal trtde continues ulet, Tlicre has beenfnd noticeable change. Inlhe demand for coal during the past week, and prices continue to be generally well main talned by the large anthracite companies, but Individual operators are reported to be cranked concessions from the circular fig ures, in order to pVeventfti accumulation of coal on their hands. Notwithstanding the bare-of-coal condition of the yards of East' ern and other coal dealers, and the appxretly firm and harmonious stand taken nealnst any weakening In prices, by the principal anthracite producers and shippers, buyers continue to hold off from placing contracts In the expectation of a decline from , the prices now ruling'. We aro informed tht, should It becomes necessary to nrevent break In prices', there Is likely, to be a sus pension In mining operations for a week or more to avoid everstobking .with coal the tidewater shipping piers arid relieve the markets of the coal already accumulated at tides. The position of the anthracite pro ducing and carrying Interests has been ma terially strengthened by the new arrange ments entered into between the Pennsyl vania liallroad, the Central Railroad of New Jersey (which leases tlie Lehigh Coal and Navigation Company's railroad, canal 'and other property) and the Lehigh Valley Rail road. Tlie Lehigh Valley interest joins the uew combination that competition in that valley may be reduced. hi' Bapsher's Speech.

A War Itemlnlicsnct. The following item appeared In tho Bethlehem Timej not very long ago and may prove of much interest to our readers n this section many of whom were, per haps, acquanted with the dead "soldier boy." Early In the late war George It. Der- hauier, who learned his trade with Con tractor Hirst of Bethlehem, and was brother of our townsman, C. M. Derhanier, Main and Ettweln streets, enlisted for three years In Co. E. 12tti Regt. Pa. Re serves, which was being mustered in at Easton. tie was then 21 years of age. He served his country well, and, at the expiration of hls time, was promoted to corporal, when he rceuilsted In his old company. At tlie battle of Antietara when officers fell right and left and death met many a brave man, an officer ot bis regiment fell, pierced in the heart by bullet, corporal Dernamer lumped on the officer's horse and, with great vim aud courage led his men on Into the thickest of the fight, only to meet death himself. A trilunle ball pierced him in the neck and he rolled out 61 the saddle to the gfsu'rid,' a corpse. A. comrade , fell across him, and the two, with all ihelr equipments, were burled , on the battle field . In one graye. ltey. James Bowman, an Evangelical As soclatlon preacher and a" brother of Bishop lipomas Bowman of Allentown, was comrade of Corporal Derhanier, and be carvml a headstone and placed It on the grave. George W. Derhamer, the father of the deceased soldier, found his son's grave by" this headstone and removed the remains to Weissport, this State, where they were interred in the cemetery, and have there reposed for a score or more of years, i wo weeKs ago ur. wernamer naa the, remains disinterred and removed to Lehlghton arid placed In a grave In the family plot in the Lehlghton Cemetery, When the remains were disinterred the last tithe, the army knapsack and blanket were louna 10 oe more er less uecajca, but the canteen and straps were in an ex cellent state of preservation. The, rubber blanket still enclrclfoftbe, corporal's skele ton and shone as bright and looked as new as the dav ft left th n'nartermaster's liandt. WhU'eth'e local undertaker was handling the remains, the nilnnle ball that pierced him on the battlefield of Antietara, twenty- three years ago, rolled down the rubber blanket. It is uow in the possession of Mr. Derhamer, father of1 the .deceased cor poral, -who wilt present .lt, together with some other war relics,' to some Grand Army post. A number of Grand Army posts ars In correspondence with Mr. Derhamer for the relics. ----Choice Clover Seed, at low est prices, at GabelV.

One way to further advance the labor interests of our country Is by Independent political action. Cast party affiliations aside, and vote' only tor such men as you know will support your cause. Of the twenty-three blast furnaces in the Shcnango Valley, fifteen were In blast on the first instant, with capacity of 8, 700 tons ipf i.rtiela er week, 'and eight furnaces, with 'a' capacity 'ot '3,'760 tons. were out of blast. The workingmen by following the ad vice of Master. Workman Powderly In labor disputes will not err. Where possible al ways Appoint an arbitration committee to adjust the intricate difficulties which may arise in the field of labor. Secretary Fnlrchlld has Issued an ardo to the effect that every emigrant should be examined before landing on American soil. Tfcfs will In a great'.measura.'pre'vcnt the I'rapdrtatlop of contract labor and dis continue pauper emmigration. Whilst we glory In American freedom and praise sweet liberty, It Is no more than just to American laborers that their Interests be protected by some such action. -The past ten years Ws witnessed such a revolution in the affairs of labor, such an elevation as It were In tho ranks 'of the tollers, hardly anticipated a decade ago. The present condition q affairs are appre ciated fully, however' 'booths. workof; ad vancement is not. yett completed. , 7. lie vic tories of the past are but a criterion of what is to follow. It now devolves on the tollers to clasp hands in eternal fellowship and to push the good work on. mere is situ much discontent among the workmen on the Lehigh & Susquehanna uivlson of the Jersey Central Railroad, be cause of the long hours they are obliged to work. The engineers are loud In' their utterances In denouncing the system, and many of them allege that since, it.has, gone into operation. tbe"y have not spent ten hours in a week with their families. It i's stated that many of the brakemen are so exhausted while on duty that they experi ence great difficulty iu keeping awake. At Pardee & Cb.'s No. 3 colliery the meu are paid s.Ixty-nlne cedts for ( putting in a set .of relief timbers,- that., consumes about a day's labor. f The company charges iwcnty-nup cents for cutting toe timbers, which is in violation of the law.

Bv the oneratton At xhn'nnm T'ntt.r.fif.lo Commerce law t'iie freight charges on the railroads haye become so high that the furnace companies can illy afford at the present prices pUron to usa IJie njAgnetlc ores from other States so largely brought into use the past few years, and. this fact In a large measure contributes to the ac tlvitv now to be witnessed in tho working of the home beds. Host of the furnaces agalp use jargejof tuCjbrp niiijed In East ern rennsyivania, ana as a result there Is not a mine between Allentown and Read ing which is not being worked tothefuIUst capacity.
