Potts vim.e, Sept. 23, 1870. —This is very
beautiful and delightful weather, and the
thoughtless ones,are enjoying it greatly; hut
the wise heads are beginning to inquire: ‘‘ Are
~ .-wnothaiiug a littlejtqo.muchof4t2l!.Through-^
cut the county, there is a universal cry for rain.
Springs are drying up, streams shrinking to a
mere thread, and the dust in the highways is a
fearful thing- to encounter. The Pottsvilie
water company is urging citizens to be sparing
jh their use Of the liquid Element; and many
of them, with that public spirit for which
Pottsviliians are noted, have abandoned its use
almost entirely, and coniine themselves to
lager and kindred fluids, to. quench their thirst.
Truth, however, compels the admission that
these persons belong, principally,.tCLJtUs..: class
concerning which the company felt the least
uneasiness.
it. was expected that the equinoctial storm
would end the drought, and give us a plentiful
supply of water: arid when the sky, last Satur
day, was overcast, and an occasional shower
fell, people said, “ Behold the equinoctial! It
has come four days ahead of time, to oblige
the moon and the farmers.” But the day
passed away, and the clouds passed with it,
without more rain than was sufficient to settle
the dust for a few hours. The 21st, the day on
which.it was predicted by the almanacs, came
and went ■ without the equinoctial, and at the
present writing it is still in the, futures-‘.‘ post
poned on account of the weather.”
Au Ornamental HninbOK.
Everything ‘is quiescent except business,
which shows a little more-briskness than - for
merly. Even politics is a subject too uninter
esting to be heard very frequently on the
street; The campaign, though formally opened
by the nominating conventions, appears to have
closed again from the utter lack of stir created
by it. Picnics are still in vogue; one held at
Tamaqua this week, for the benefit of the
widowsnnd_.orpbaus- of llefman-sdldiersj Js.
said to have netted $l,OOO, which will at least
be something, though; 1 fear, only a drop in
"thnoceari of rnoney that will be needed. Court
is quietly occupied in disposing of “short
causes,” (two days was the length of the last
one tried), and will devote next week to the
“ long cause ” list. The following week, the
new Criminal Court will hold Its regular
session, all. the criminal business of the old
Court of Quarter Sessions having been
formally transferred to it by the District
Attorney. This looks like—and doubtless is
an abandonment of the conflict on the part
of the old court, and a happy relief one would
think it must he to that tribuuhl and to a
Judge whose list of civil cases is longer- than
he can possibly get through with. 'The next
thing we want is the abolition of that • purely
ornamental humbug—the office of . Associate
Judge—and, in its place, an additional Law
Judge, with full authority and ability to hear
and determine cases with or without the con
currence of the present Law Judge. Governor
Geary’s objection that this would give ScliuyiL
kill county three law Judges,, could easily be
overcome by appointing the Judge of the
Criminal Court, or combining that with the
Court of Common Pleas.
Coal Blatters.
_ Coal items are scarce. The joint committee
in fix the rate of wages for September will
meet to-morrow afternoon, and at or about the
same time the representatives of the W. B. A.
will hold their regular monthly meeting, and
on the action of. these two bodies the peace and .
quiet of the country for the ensuing month
will, in a great measure, depend.
The nine inspectors are- at last appointed
and commissioned. The examination of can- _
didates for the position took" place on the 9th' '
and 10th inst., and the three- successful appli
cants having been recommended to the
Governor, were by him appointed on the 20th,
and were duly sworn in yesterday. Their I
names and districts are as follows : |
First. District —Frank Smeitzer, of Girard- i
ville. This district includes all collieries south j
of the Broad Mountain, between the west j
branch of the Schuylkill and the eastern fine of |
the county, including the New Boston field. I
Second District —John Eltringham, of Ash- |
land, who lias charge of all the collieries north 1
of the Broad Mountain in Schuylkill county ,
and all in Columbia county. j
Third District —David B. Edmunds, of New
Philadelphia. In this district are included all i
collieries in Schuylkill county, west of the
AVest Branch of the Schuylkill, and also all in
Dauphin and Northumberland counties.
These inspectors are appointed under the
“mine inspection act ” of March 3, 1870, and i
are to have general oversight of all the collieries j
within their jurisdiction, with power to see that
they are worked with the greatest possible re
gard to tbe health and comfort of their em
ployes. The bill was gotten up by the miners
themselves ; so if the mines are not hereafter
kept in a state of absolute perfection, they

For the week we have three men reported
killed—two by cars and one by a fall of coal;
two men severely burned by an explosion of
lire damp, and two or three injured by mine
wagons, through carelessness, in gettiug in the
way of the same. Wico.
OUR WIL9IINGTOII LETTER.

A Paid Fire Departineut.
Wn.MiNfiTox, Sept. 22.—Hang! into the
very camp of the “ Bootneladdies” went a red
hot shell, from City Council, last evening. The
new fire committee took up the work where
the old one left off, and did it with none the
less gusto, on account of the fact that a quiet
effort was made at the last city election to
slaughter the Republican paity by the Volun
teer Fire Department. Not that the effort to es
tablish a PaidDepartruent is a purely Republican
measure, but the members of the old depart
ment rightly calculated that they could bully
the Democrats into defeating it more easily
than they could the Republicans. Well, the
Republicans retained their majority, and
the thing is likely to be tried. Last night
Captain Callagher, of the Committee on Fire
Companies, introduced an ordinance providing
for the establishment of a Paid Fire Department,
under the control of commissioners' 'elected by
City Council, find to consist of a Chief Engi
neer, two Assistant Engineers, three, lire com
panies and one hook and ladder company.
Each lire company is to consist of a foreman,
one engineman, a fireman, a hostler, and nine
extra men, and the hook and ladder company
is to have a, foreman, a hostler, and nine
men. The ordinance defines the duties of
the various persons to. he appointed under
.its.provisions, and requires the Chief Engineer
; of the Department,vai(d- the en^nemen,"tire- -
imm and hostler of each company to devote
their time exclusively to the: duties of their
positions. The ordinance has not passed yet,
of course, but those who have it in charge feel
confident of its passage. It is believed that
three steamers are enough for a city like this,
■when Baltimore gets along with six or seven
since the establishment of a Paid Department.
At prescnlTTShder the volunteer system, we
have eix - steamers and one hand engine,

Tlie established character of this line, running as It

its present advanced condition and large earnings, war
rant us in unhesitatingly recommending these bonds

These bonds have £0 years to. run, are convertible at
the option of the holder into the stock of the Company

by a sinking fund. The convertibility privilege at
