That there is a wider bre ach between the men who are ipttling for , higher wages.and the •men who employ them than th ere halt ever been in this country is' unquestionable, and that both parties are more, or less at fault is equally certain. UP= one point, however, all good citizens am' agreed: The majesty of the lawninst be preserv ed, no matter whonmy loom to grief or ;what interests may suffer. ..frci this end the Government bas stretched forth its - strong arm and remoulded peace ; Ind so for the timdbeing paten is restored, but it, is the unhealthy pethe that comes from fear of the bullet and the bayonet.

Not that ~these twenty thousand are ell enemies of law and or der.- two-thirds,- perhaps three fourths of ,therif„ would gLidly resume work at the 'rapt offered if they dared ; but on account of the threats of the law less fraction they dare not. I know it is - common for men to speak 'of "the stri: kers" as a law-defying„ desperate unit, but this is a gross wrong \to thousands of ' pier, wretched beings, who would will: ingly earn their meagre living if they could be secuked pcvdtively against vio lence from their fellow-workmen. To these men the labor "union "is an un pitigated curve, for it leaves theralko al ternative hut starvadon or crime. \ If the effort now making, under the judicious and efficient direction of Governor dart. rauft and General Elanimck, to 'secure these men theirlreedmiz by military pow.' er succeeds, it will be a godsend- to all . honest workingmen, even though it should be schieved through the annihilation of every riotoarAolly,Maguire, house-burn er, and train4rrecker in the State.- This Sweeping remedy can, however, hardly be Aped for., The present turbulent element will periedizate its vital- roots, like the noxious, areedlthat t has - been burned from iho ground, while there are coals to mine and railroads to be operated and, there fore, there can be *secority either t for well-disposed miners, operators, and ship.

Bien • the farmers log% tedat long distances from the mines are beginning to feel the neces sity of armed defence against the marau ders who prowtthmugb the, country un der the guise of," unemployed lauorers," as it is not unusual for the latter to call at houses, in some cases with liorths and Wagon, and :demand" bread, meat * , pota toes,• and other, provisions, ostensibly for the relief of starving miners' families, Which they afterwards huckster, and spend the pribeeeds for drink. When you said,in the, Press a few days 'ago that whatlbe Molly Maguire element among the strikers ;wanted was , "'not bread, but blood," you stated the case ex actly. A gentleman within earshot from where I am writing, who gave notice that on the afternoon of the following. day he would distribute one thousand -loaves of bread to the needy poor, was 'coolly told in reply that his attempt to. do this char -table act would be at - the risk of his life. "They did not-want his bread, and they would shoot him if he offered it" - Mr. IP—, the largest coal operator in this re gion, and one whose generosity to his em ployes is. roverbial, instructed his super intendent to distribute a sum of money among the most destitute families.' The next day the superintemlent Inforined "him that there were seventy-five bushels of wheat lying in one of the company's bares, and naked what he should do with it.

NO will a.return to prosperous times in the coal /business ' remedy this evil. Theirs men "struck,", and did their em ployers much damage,-when miners were mak ng from five to ten dollars per day— actually from onehundred to three bun dred'dollars per month! One of the crim inal inisfortnnes of these people, oven'the best of them, it seems, is that they are utterly improvident, and, under the ty ranny of the •.,‘ unions," -oven the small rums they WV() are throWn away upon in sane strikes. Another reason for fearing that this conflict will be protracted, if not irrepres sible, is furnished in' the false training 'of the rising generation. Antipathy of the laborer towards the operator, and 'what he calls the "capital class, is growing more . bitter and deadly, from year to year. The infant imbibes it at his mother's breast. -It- is the-dominant element of his education through childhood. and youth s The train in which I visited Scranton on , Thursday was assaulted with stones by a herd of urchins from live to ten years of age, and just before reaching the depot a pistol was fired at us by a body of like tender years.

The price .of 'coal has already been favorably affected. That the threatened revolution - will do something.towards wiping out, old party lines is not improbable.

OLD 1111 T. • The Philadelphhk Times prints this roniantie item: • . . , A couple passed through this city on their way home to the southern part of the State whose story is a' re markable one., Elizabeth Gates, ten , years ago a pretty girl of seventeen, fell in love with George Mills, a handsome young:Virginian, ivho was a clerk in her .father's store. Her father disapproved of the attachment and furthered the suit of Amzi S. Ti, ner, a well-to-do young miller of the place. Elizabeth liked 1 im,' but 'de clined to marry him on account of her attachment to Mills. , Neverthe less the paternal authority. was-exert ed and she married Tiner in Septe ..- ber, 1867. In October they , return -. from their wedding tour, and a flew 11 dip later she disappeared with ills. Three years later her father died, but nothing wail \ heard of lie until there - cisme a letter' from 14tehileld, Minn., dated July 18, of the current leer, directed to her\fathe,r and ask ing, his forgiveness. \Tie husband and : the ezeentor of her fatheVs• et tate, which had been leit\to the hut- I band , went at once to \West anil / found her working ,u a . s e amstress. Her story was a sad one. She had gone to,lndiana t wit a divorce there and then joined Milli in Central CitY, Colorado, where' they were married. All went welruntil Mills began 'to gamble. 'Then he, began to abu•'• her, and finally forced her to accom pany him to Utah. There he started r faro bank and house of ill-fame, and compelled her to work in the kitchen for a year and a half until the house was broken up. In 1871 Mills joined the Mormons and took two more wives, whereat she left home in ditiguise. She worked in;the •City, HoteLat Denveras dining-room girl for a year \and - a' half, during which time ,Mills was. killed by hie partner in a quarrel about the divi sion of some money . won by - gamb- Hug. jiiixt she went tothe Spanish . Peaks as a companion and waiting maid, and after three monthsin a St.. Louis hospital went in the same ,ca pacity to Minnesota. , She then de termined to go home, but Wile robbed of all her money by an, Indian half breed, and had to walk 'all the way to Brainard Junction, on the Missis sippi, thirty miles. After that , the succeeded in reaching 2 Litchfield, where she wrote home. The husband; with a noble manliness not too coin mon, proposed that they should again 'be married. This was done, and they are now, once' more in the home which she left-ten years ago. • WEst."—The able financial editor of the Philadelphia Ledger, in the Saturday issue of that paper, writes: 16 -Young man, go west.' At noo time since the utterance of this ad- Vice by the late HoraCe Greeley to a youngnian in search of employment has it - had' more direct' application than just now, when so many are fruitlessly searching' for something to do. Many would like to go West and cultivate the land; andit is about the 'best thing that offers; bat they have little knowledge of just exactly how to do it. The first step is to selecl, 'the land to be entered, and the next to make affidavit before' the Registir -'or Receiver of the Land Office in which the entry is to be mule; setting forth that the appli cant is - the head of family, or, is twenty-one ormore years of age, r has performed service in the army or:#a vy of the United States, that the' ap. plimtion is made for his exclusive use and benefit, and that Sitislinade for the purpose of actuatatttlinient and cultivation, and not, directly or indirectly, for the use or benefit Of any other person. -On filing this af fidavit the fee is $5 if the entry is of not more than 80 acres, and $lO if more. 4.. registry-fee-of $1 .for each : `declaratoly statement filed ; a com mission to be paid by the homestead applicant, at the time of entry", of 1 percent. oir the cash price,as fixed by law of the land applied or, ands like commission when the claim' is finally established, and, the certificate. issued therefor as thelbasie . of a pat ent. There is also t appears, an ad ditional fee of . for this final cer tificate. But t e patent for the lad cannot be o tained until five years fromthe rim of the entry, when- he must pro by two witnesses that he 'has reprded on the land or cidtivated it di ring that period, that no part of the and has been alienated, &c. The ) , w does not appear to exact any fee for the issueof the patent. An hon orably discharged soldier or sailor has six months ( after locating his homestead and filing a declaratory statement within which to commence his settlement and improvement, and he may perfect his title in one year, provided he served four years in the army or navy, or was enlisted for that length of time and discharged on account of wounds received or disabilities - incurred in the line of duty. In other wOils; the term of his service may be deducted from the five - years' residence or cultivation required' of other'persons.'? • . Tan Nei!

On the . 12th -of February, 1870 4 Congress passed an act-by which the authority to coin the silver dollar was with-' drawn. Thatact which demonetized the silver dollar, it is vow , proposed 'to repeal, and to makes the silver dol lar a legal tender for the Payment of all debts, as it was under" the act of Congress;l793. • The following is a history - of the silver dollar of the. United -States, and of the acts of Congre.sa hereto-I fore passed in relation to it: The first Coinage Act, that. 'of April 2, 1792, authorized the coinage of "dollars or units," "each to he of the value of a Spanish milled dellar, as the same is now current, and to contain three handred and seventy one' grains" and four-sixteenth parts, of a grain of pure, or four hundred' 'and sixteen grains of standard;ail ver." This was the original ',silver . dollar." The . Spanish milled/dollar, the'prototypnof the new "dollar or unit," remained in Circulation and was exprek4Wl'declared "by an ,net of Congress of 1193, a i legal tender for the payment of all/debts. The Act of 1792, also authorized the coinage of eagles, half eagles and quarter-ea gles en gold,and of , subsidiary silver coin . In the . adjustment of the two metal'sby this legislation the ratio or I to 10 / was established,. and the con secrhence was that gold never come , late circulation. Practically the country had a single. silver standard. was shrive at a : premium until by an Act of June 28N 1834, Congress re. duced ttie weight and fineness of-gold coins. = In' the Act of 1837, the / silver dollar was 142tieed to 4124 grains. The legal then was about I to 16, an adjustment which for a time proved satisfactory. But the discov ery of gold in California caused. oil= verto rise in value, or In other words, gold, at the . ratio then in 'force, be came 'the cheaper metal. An Act at „March 3, 1849, first authorized' the coinage of a double eagle and ii gold, dollar. Atter silver coins had almost disappear,ed from circulation the Act of February 24.1853, roluced the half dollars to 192 grains' and '- smaller silver coins in proportion, These subsidiary coins were declared -legal tenders for all 811131 b not exceed ing live dollars. 'An act. - passed in 1857, repealed all former Acts,- de claring foreign gold 'or silver coins a legal tender in payment of pebts. The civil war, led to the suspension of specie payments and the issue of legal tender notes in 1862. The lat. est Important nseasure of moneta ry legislation Is the Act of February 12, 1873, by Which authority to coin the silver dollar was withdrawn. This was the iocidled denionet*tion Act; which it is Proposed, W . , repeal: As a 'fact the 'Silver &liar had disap peared twenty years before the Act of 1873 went into effect: At,thntime that the War' loans and legal-tender notes were issued by, the 1 flovern inept, the old silter,or,inare burred,. ly, the silver dollar of 1837;'was of no more prictical consequence than the coins of the ancient Realms.
