we found the gate locked. We quickly tere

This we did while the reef was falling all
around us."

A rescuing party has been trying te reach
the entombed men all day, and the hope
that they will ever be get out alive has been
almmt abandoned. The aoarchera went Inte
tlie mine at":15 with safety lamps ami ether
Implements as they needed. A little later
prep wero aent down the shaft. The reef
wan still creaking and rumbling, and the
work of the roscuerawaa attended with much
danger, as they had te prep up the reef
bofero they could proceed. One of
the searchers said that the root
waa " working " constantly, and It was
dangerous te proceed beyond tlie head of the
sleK). The rescuers endeavored te keep the
air passages clear. Aftercach fall, while the
searchers worked, a strong current of air
rushed through the gangways, and the men
wero several Union hurled against tlie walls
by Uie current and their lights put out.
l.very tlme the searchers came te the surface
they were boslegeU with questions by the
weening wives, mothers, chlldren and sisters
of the Imprisoned men. They speke In
cheerlng tenes and words te the sorrowful
women, but te ihe reporter they ox ex

who are familiar with this particular initie,
bolletothat the seven men are already dead,
owing te the circumstances connectod with

Inside el a week. An Idea of the extcnt of
the cave-lu may be obtalned from tlie fact
that there are a number of cracks In the

The great abundance and superior quellly
of the New Jersoy peaches hae nratly
driven the Delaware and Maryland peaches
from tlie market. Thore will be eryrew
lieiiluaula poaehOH hote this week, net be
cause thore are no tnore thore te be matketed
bul Isxaiise they will sell In the home mar
kola te eanners, driers, and Wiatern fruit
dealers for mere inonev than thpy will com
Hand In this city. TliofewpoiiliisulaHmfK.'ks
which mum here last week were relil at
from 10 teTO cents Mir basket, and they would
hae sold at the shipping places for mere
money. There will lai an ahunilaiice or geed
jswehes hore Irem New Jersey until Outetwr,
and should thore Iki no Iresty weather this
month Jioaehos el ttoeil quality and linn llaver
will come from that statu until the middle of
OctetKir or later. The lliusl preserving
peaches of the season will net tin hure for
nmrly two weeks and, owing te Iho Mirled
climate or New Jersoy, (the dlllorence be
tween high lauds and low lands,) they will
continue lu the market for qulte two weeks,
and hnusokeoors will have the best opjsir epjsir
tunlty they have had In yours te try their
skill In cooking peaches In roel, pleasant
weather. The Jersey HiiitKks (jellew) will
Is beller this jear than ler 1M years past, and
tlie old Merris White el our grandmother'
days will almost 1st rivaled by the whlle open
ixuichtiM which will coine here from Merris
county tins season.
This week thore will Itea great abundance
el table iMiachcH, IkiIIi of the red and the yel
low varieties. It Is almost lmesslbln te cor
rectly name New Jersey pesches. Kach farm
seems te prmiuce Its Irult illllerent Irem that
of neighboring farms, although Iho trees may
all havneome Irem the miiie common stis-k.
Karly In the season the peaches Irem New
Jersey wero unusually ssir ; lu Tact, it Is
only the exception when Jersey peaches are
gKl In August. Hut the September istaches
Irem New Jersoy are nearly alwaja of line
llaver, and a very large porcetitaRo of them
this season are large mid line. The most de-
llcleusly ilavored H?aches of the season will
be hore this week from that state, and high
prices can be obtained by dealers only for
strictly fancy fruits, and many thousand
baskets et luscious red and yellow peaches
will this week be wholesaled lr les than 7..
lent per basket.
There will lai plenty of ar ler several
weeks yet (feed llartliitl pears will whole
sale for about t ler barrel, but large, fine,
fancy lUrtletts, such as these usually In
Broadway (rulterer's windows, will readily
sell ter that much or bushel. There should
be a linerai supply ei me mockei pears uere
this week, but thore is only a small crop, or
v ery small and ludlllorent quality, of that
delicious llttle K'ar this year.
The apiile crop this season seems te be se
far very indltterent In quality. There are
only a row geed apples te be found In the
market. The Hudsen alley apples and
theso from New Jersey are badly stung liy
Insects. Doubtless, however, later en Iho
apples will come here In much better condi
tion. Tlie Central New Yerk grape growers have
already tK-gun te harvest their crop of Dela
ware grapes, ami there Is every reason for
bellevlng that It is going te be the finest crop
evor grown In this state, and the largest.
Already the prli-e has fallen te live cents per
Niiml wholesale In this city. However,
there Is net much likelihood of their felling,
when In prime condition, for les than that,
button cents In loruier years was thought te
be qulte lfl w ler them. The ('slaw lu grapes
will come later anil a magnificent crop Is ox ex ox
nected. The uuantltv will tie far tieveiid any
previous year, and the quality Is expected
tobelullyas geed as any ever grown. It
will be two weeks or mere, however, before
any geed Catawbaare shipped here, lu many
parlset the Hudsen Valley and up In the
Catsklll Mountains the drought has lsm un
precedented. Tanners lu many places have
been compelled tostable thelr cattle and leeil
thorn as In winter. Heme of the largest anil
most valuable Concord grape vineyards are
situated In the dry sections , consequently
the Concord crop this season may be some
what short of last season, when thore was a
large crop. Hut thore will be no scarcity et
line Concord grapes, and prices will boas
low as last year.

Judging from thotransactleiismndodurlug
the week and the general activity displayed,
New Yerk npiara te have n gained It pros pres pros
tlgeas the leading leaf market of the coun
try. The w eek has lieen a great ene. Nearly
j,W)0 cases changed hands, many linns par
ticipating In the transactions , whlle the pre
vious week showed a slngle transaction of
3,500 cases, creating qulte a touiinetlou in
the market, the sales et the present wcek oo eo oe
monstrato a distribution of trade, and In
which a large clrcle el hujers and sellers
tmrtlplnited. And as most el the tobaccos
sold weroer the new crop, sonie motiey, If
net a great deal, ha been made by the sol sel sol
lers. This factalone stands In bold contrast
te the transactions made at this tlme or the
year, rer matiy seasons paU That anyene
could make money en seed leal, was, up te
recently, almost de-paired el.
New"l'ennsylvanla and new state played
mint Important role this week. One large
manufacturing firm took 1,i00 cases of new
Pennsylvania, while another manufacturer
purchased 700 cases of new state, Heera)
jnbtMjrit also Invested In shite, and.as'a whole,
the ravers were about equally divided. Te
this are te be tdded transactions lu new
llousatenlc, aggregating about S00 cases, and
also a transaction er2."0 casosef new nhleand
300 cases new Wisconsin.
The quotations et the new tobaccos sold
vary, llrokers are gre.it authorities. In this
resect, but thelr saying and actions are
naturally governed greatly by their orders
from thelr customers as te the publication
of pricts obtained have te be respected.
Therefore quotations of any correctness
ran only Iki made Irem the prices goods
have Uen held at, and the eilers made en
them and refused. I'rnsecullng this theory
prices for new tobaccos rule us lollews :
New Yerk sUte lllg Klals, running, Is te

activity. '1 he out of-town buyers, el whom
there has laen a number m lh market,
wero the heavin-t takers this week. Te
these is credited the purchai-e (it murly J,P00

high, but are mere sietily, and holders are
les inclined te grant concession than they

and net witlieut warrant. The most en en
ceuraglug foature et the present activity Is
that tlrms In the West and elsewhere outstde

that business with theae KiopIe is geed, for

lu an address ilollverod liofero the Amorl Amerl

Science, lloralle Hale treated of the origin of
language and tlie antiquity of speaklng
man.
Thl address I of prline Iniporlance a be
ing a clear and epu!ar exposition of the
most advanced position et sclence witli re-
ftard te questions whoreon It has ii(earod te
ie most ut variance with religion.
Languages have been traend le parent
stock, and classllled by philologist Inte fain
f Hen ; such a the Aryan family of sixty Ian
guages, or the Anierlcan Algetikiu family or
thirty-live, but the mostcarelul research ha
railed te establish uuy relationship between
the famllle thotnselves. Thern nre evor
two hundred distinct linguistic slecks, and
the question that has most Kirploxeil phllel
eglsts ler many year,as te hew these wldely
dlllerent languages orlglnaled, has at length
reeehed an answer.
It has been ebserved that II two children,
who are Just beginning te sneak, are lelt
much tngother they sometimes invent a com
plete language J sulllcletit for all purisises of
mutual lntorceurse, yet totally unintelligible
te their parents and ethors about thorn In

'They had a language of their own, se coin.
plete and full that they were al no less te
express theinsolves In thelr play, their chat
tering with eaeh ethor all day." lnlhOSa
Dr. Hun published an aweunt or the singular
dovelopmont el language in a child. In this
case the sis-och wa Invented by a little girl
or four year and n halt, In conjunction with
a brether eighteen month vounger. About
twenty words were given as men, meaning
lieth catandfursj Ht('ite-nii.ii, water, wash ;
6aii, soldier, music. Dr. Hun adds "she
uses the lauguage readlly and Ireely, and
when she Is with her brother they converse
with great rapidity and lluency."
rrem thote lnstances. and ethers, it 1 as
sumed that children left te themselves by
any accident. In a Jiosltlen reinote from
ether of their rai e, would develop an en
tirely new language.
In early tlme when meu were spreading
gradually evor tlie whele world, emigrat
ing In tribes and lumllles te region remote
from their fellow men, it inlaht have hap
pened that sonie slngle pair, destroyed by
the sinking of a canee In a storm, or soine
ether accldent Incident te Ravage 111c, should
have left a family or yeutig children ; who
would dovelop a new language.
Accidents of this kind must have been
oemparatlvoly numerous, but inn chances el
the survival of the children wero net great,
se that, In L'urope.oiily four orlive linguistic
stock are found, and most of theso are
traced te region of milder climate. In
California, whero the climate Is mild, and
the small Irults and edlhle roots abundant,
thore hae been found iilnetrsjii distinct
stocks. And hore n curious fact has been ob
served, namely, that each linguistic family
ha its own mythology. Showing thatthe
chlldren left alene framed n new religion for
themselves; for the religious m-tluct, Pro Pro
feseor Hale observes, la a part of the mental
outfit of the human race.
This explanation or the origin el ditlerent
languages, together with the traditions and
histories or men or all rsees, soeuis te point
te the conclusion that tlie peopling el the
earth by the present nations and tribes Is a
comparatively receni bicim.
Thore ere no traditions or monuments lit
America that point te a greater antiquity
than threo theusitul years. The Islands et
tlie Seuth Pacific have been peopled ler mere
thau two thousand ear. Traditions of
China go back about lour thousand years,
and the Aryan traditions te about the same
time. The Assyrians a miie leiiKtn, mm
the Ugvptians te about four thousand years
before Christ. Ne ovldeuce of monument
or tradition, points te the existence of man
upon tlie earth at a period oxi-eoding seven
thousand years from the present tlme.
Yet scientlhc men have claimed, and still
claim, that human beings have been
living ou the glebo for n term vv hick must be
computed, net by thousands el years, but
by tens and probably huiidrodserthousinds,
The existence of man gees back te a reinote
period, In comparison with which the monu
ments or l'gypt are but of yesterday. New
theso tiveracts, se puzzling te men of science,
se apparently ut vumn with each "thcr
ami religion, have been m-mciled.
l'reni a study of the celebrated "jawbone
of LaNaulette," vvhicli Imlenged te a river

covered ovidence that these men had net the
faculty of sneecb. "In the middle or the
Inner curve or the .law, in place or a littloe littlee littloe
crescenco called the ' gi nial tubercle,' thore
isn hollow, as with monkeys. Speech Is
produced by the mnveuieut of the tongue iu
certain wajs; mainly by the action of the
muscle iuserted in the genial tubercle. The
exlstencoel this tubercle Is therefore essen
tial te the possession of language "
Other jawbones of this race show the same
peculiarity, and the thape of the skull lead
sclentistste cenclude tl.at the convolution et
the brain, which is the seat of language, was
missing with these men e-s It is with apes.
The succeeding race of cave men
possessed well developed heads and had the
genial tubercle. They were a magnificent
race of men en the threshold el civilization.
The river drllt race may be traced te a vast
antiquity; but theii successors, who wero
the lirst men worthy of the name, can net be
