TERKIBI.E COAL PIT EXPLOSION.— The Rich
i, ml Despatch contains the particulars of an
plosion at the Midlothian Coal Pits, in
Chesterfield county, Va., on Monday. The
Dispatch says:
" The explosion, when it took place, caused
the earth, for miles around the pits, to wave
and rock as a twig in the wind. One gentle
man, who was crossing the railroad, about a
mile from the pits at the time, said he felt the
rails reel under him ; and another, who was
passing the road on horse-back, declared that
his beast staggered and trembled, us if suddenly
shocked by a tremendous galvanic battery. —
The centre boards around the shafts were
Mown off as if they had been paper, and at
the western shaft two large cable chains were
broken in two as easily as if they had been
pipe stems.
It is supposed the explosion was caused by
an accidental ignition of gas. Ot 50 persons
in the pit at the time, 34 were taken out dead
or in the agonies of death, of whom 28 were
slaves and 6 white persons. The names of the
latter are Thos. I hum, John Evans, Samuel
(Jouldin, John Lester. J. Jewett and Jos.
Howe. Four whites—John Howe, S. Hunt,
N. Ham and Thos. Kennedy—were badly
burned, as were also twelve slaves. The dis
patch adds :
Some of the dead men, the flesh charred on
their hones, held their shovels in their hands—
others were holding to their picks and drills ;
ami Samuel Hunt, a small boy, who iiad been
deprived of reason for the time, by the con
dition, was calling loudly to the mule he had
been driving to go along. Those who were
not dead, as soon us they heard the voices of
their friends, begged earnestly not to Vie left,
ami then prayed loudly for a few drops of cold
water to quench their burning thirst.

Obituary.
DlED—TnXVyalusing. March 11th. Mr. BENJAMIN ACKLEV,
aged 85 years, 5 months and 21 days.
Thus has passed away, at an advanced age, another of
the gray-haired pioneers of Bradford County. Another of
the connecting links between the past and the present
centuries, lias iiecn snapped asunder. Mr. ACKLEV was
horn in Litchfield county. Conn., December 20,170' J. In
the year 17114. at the age of 25, lie emigrated to I'ennsyl
.-yivaiiia, and settled on the Wyalusiug creek, and shortly
afterwards removed to the farm he occupied at the time
of his death—then a wilderness. He lived to see that wil
derness fall before the woodman* axe, and thrift and com
fort spring tip on every side. His habits were rather of a
'lorn, -tic kind, though a man of much influence in his own
neighborhood. There are many, who, when they read the
alwve notice, will rcmemlier that under his roof was found
nnirh hospitality and kindness. He was twice married,
and an aged partner still survives him to mourn his 10-s.
He reared a large family of sons and daughters, who are
occupying useful stations, and some "f them stations of
honor and public trust. (If children he had fifteen, eleven
o r whom are still living. Of grand cii-.dren fifty-five, forty
six of whom still live. Of greatgrand children, thirty-sev
en. and thirty-five are living. The number of his descen
dant-, all counted, is one hundred and seven—living at his j
death, ninety-two. In his last illness was shown the truth j
"f the wise man. when he says " The days of our years arc i
three score years and ten ; and if by reason of strength, |
they be four score, yet it is their strength, labor and sor- j
row. for it is soon cut off and will flee away." His suffer- j
ings in his last illness, were of the most intense kind, and |
greatly protracted, yet he bore up under them with much
patioine and submission, longing for the hour of his re
•aseto come; and when nature could hold out no longer. ;
he fell asleep without a struggle or groan. " Peace to his j
a-hes." " C. I
At his residence, in Burlington, on the 11th inst., Hon. j
JOHN MCKEAN, in the 75th year of hi.- age.
The subject of the foregoing announcement deserves in
'hi-place a more extended notice than the simple state
nient that he was horn, that he lived and died. His name
stands prominent among the early settlers of the county ;
(i ' loss of persons who arc fast disappearing from among
living. A few only remain -and very shortly the sto- j
eyufi'ic hardships encountered in the early settlement of j
country, as well as the fortitude and heroism with;
* ai, 'h those hardships were borne, will become a tradi- I
0 "u. No living eye-witness will remain to relate it.
The individual whose decease we have recorded, came
into this pan of the State while yet a lxv, with his father
several brothers, and settled on Sugar Creek, within
'heprc-cnt limits of Burlington township—and while the
'Trite ry which now forms Bradford County, was part of
' f'ounty of Lycoming. In 1*01). he received from Gov.
* '. V| l- r a commission as Justice of the Peace for Burling- j
' township, Lycoming County. Three years later, upon j
organization of tips County, he was commissioned by j
svne Governor, as one of the Associate Judges, which '
i'-t he continued to fill with ability and undoubted integ- ;
r ! . v until 1841, a period of twenty-nine years. Few per- j
'"copying positions of public trust and responsibili- j
'•"ring a long course of years, have acquitted them- I
with greater credit, or preserved a more unsullied
• putation than the subject of this notice. As a Judge, a
"" ' r - a ' i'i/en and a man, he aimed to discharge his duty
k ' w "*i>ti ly and fearlessly, yet with all gentleness aud
■ l,n e--. The single object of bis life was to do good
• fimatcd by the common low standard, his life was a ;
■ -ire f„ r ho accumulated no wealth, and was content to
i ' .r.t . when jeeged byhislrlrin
'ji . h.ir.c i. r, and the benign influence be shed .
around him for tlic elevation and improvement of others,
his was an eminent instance of success. Men in general
do not appreciate a success like this, which depends upon
personal excellence only and has no relation to the ac
cumulation of riches; their vision is too gross to perceive
the highest order of success.
Judge MCKEAN, in early life became a member of the
Methodist Episcopal Church, and contiuued in that com
munion until the time of his death. For inauy years he
was a local preacher. The consolations of the christian
religion sustained him amidst the increasing infirmities of
age, and in the full enjoyment of his mental faculties up
to the hour of his departure, he died In the glorious hope
of a 1 >etter life. COM.

Unlike other planters, it has no gearing to get out of
repair, but is carried in the hand like a cane, aud can lie
worked up hill or down; as well as on level ground, plant
ing as much ground in a day as five men cau with hoes.—
It may also be used to plant beams, as it can is- guaged to
drop as few or as many kernels as desired. It is meeting
with unprecedented success everywhere it is introduced,
having been presented at several Agricultural fairs, and
always without exception received the highest premium,
being the liest and chea|iest implement of the kind in use.
