"Notwithiit'snding the scarcity of vessels to transport -coal eastward; and The consequent aa cumulation of supplies, it would appear Suit the operators, it:este:id of baing . rdaretettons. of ruin. are actually looking to an advance in pti ces before the closirig•of the station, rind are great ly enlarging their means to bring the product of their mines to market." • We think they have a perfect right to look for an advance in. prices. Coal is now selling on board at Philadelphia, at 25 cents per ton 'less than it was this time last year, although the price of frei g ht on the lEail•road is the same as last year. Wages is also the sami In this region, as at was this time last year—shhough all kinds of Provi- sions have advanced fEont 25 to 30, and in some instances, 50 per. cent. So far the trade has been anything btit prosperotis this season. Tbs following is from the same paper.: 2 "The Schuylkill Canal will be navigated this summer by upwardi of 160 new boats, capable of carrying from 150 to 280 tons of ,Coal each, in addition to the boats that formerly navigated the canal. The Lehigh Navigation Company have contracted for 250 new boats, and 50 more are being built - by other parties, all of which will be completed by. the first of July next. Each of these boars *ill carry from 60 to 80 tons of coal, which will enable the company to transport near ly double the quantity of coal to market this year .that they did last:" • With all the facilitiei the canal can give this year, ita'capacity will notbe greater than 300,000 tons, and the quantity sent by that avenue, may fall short of that amount. The Borits.stimesent. only carry.frornll3o to 140 tons—but next year it will, be different: The Lehigh Region cannot under any circumstances.' increase their supply over -150,000 tons this year—it is impossible for them to nearly double their supply under existing 'circumstances, nor do they desire to do so. The article winds up as followit : ...We anticipate, however, that there will be a more plentiful-supply of vessels at Richmond, in a few weeks" when the active demand whiCh ex. Ws in eastern markets will soon- reduce the stock at that place, now amounting to about 250,000 tons." Vessels are more plenty at Richmond, and the= stock is disappearing—but at the time the article in the Pennsylvanian was written, there Were not over 70,000 tons of coal stocked' at Richmond, Whichis only one hundred and eight)) thousand lons less ihan the Pennsylvanian slates: The truth is there hits not been 250,000 ions of Voal sent to Richmond this year. We would therefore respectfully suggest to writer in question, to make himself better acquain ted with - the trade or cease writing on the subject altogether. Such articles show; a lamentable igno rance of this branch of business and , hits' a great tendency to injure the trade. 7 . „ . SPONTANEOUS CONBUSTION—IsOTEIINMENT .. . CeAL ON Fins.—Our reat:ers will recollect that a le* years ago we established the fact . (elthough stoutly denied - at the time) that BiturAinous Coal Was liable to spontaneous combustion, which sat. isfaciorily )accounted for numerous :fires that had occurred,-tbescause of which had been itt,!olsed in mystery. By the following , it appearsifiat our Government is suffering from a similar cause, and that the Cumberland Bituminous Coal is ais s o liable to spontaneous combustion : -, ' "A letter dated Key West... April 4, says:--You are probably aware that a .large quantity of coal has bet4i deposited here for the use of the Govern.' meta steamers k a large portion .0 yvtitch is “Cum herland crial.". Some 2,000 ton of this are lying immediately in,the real of, the - s ore occupied by Mr. Ogden. Two days since, smoke was seen to issue from different parts of the\ pile, and men were engaged in removing it This morning it was discovered to he actually on fire within two inches of the surface and two' feet from the ground. . . Another ; dated April 9, says : A large body of laborers have been engaged in removing it to i lot, where it will not endanger surrounding build tugs. One bait of the whole quantity has been removed,..and although it is atilt on fire in various places. no danger is apprehended.`. The cost and expenses of this coal will not be- less than, $2O per ton, and it is entirely wOrthless, and none of the steamers that have touched here for a supply, have taken' any of it."

Taylor's breast and tore hiti coat, at the battle of Buena Vista, his Aid, the gallant Crittenden, very cooly remarked ; " General. I think the Government .ought to furnish you a new coat." The present Secretary-of War, Mr. Marcey, charged the State of New York fifty cents for mending his breeches a few years, nce, and we presume he will have ng alijectious to "fork over" a new coat to Gen. Taylor.. • TO-x Next Cosonces.—Tbe Washington U nion makes out a) table of 120 democrats to 110 opposition, in the next house of Hypresentatives, 'The Union declared that the revenue'of the Country 'would be increased cinder the Tariff of 18 , 16.

We have always heard of General Taylor as .a• sound Whig; but as he has been moth engaged in the public -dtities, he has had less chance 'of making known his views than many other distin guished citizens have enjoyed and used. But cir cumstances that we did not Anticipate, haie with in a day,or two, enabled us to answer the two im portant queries. - In the first place, then, Zachary T4lor, is a Whig—a sound sterling Whig—a friend of all the leading public permanent measures of the great Whig party. We have occasion to know this. • He is the friend •of a' protective tariff of the distribution of the proceeds of the public 'lands; and he is / opposed to the sub-treasury system. ' With regard to the other quere, relative to the willingness • of General Tailor to stand a canvass as a Presidential candidate, we believe no one would feel at liberty to give an opinion , fur him. Gen. Taylor is, and has been a Us, man. He would desire -tu see that personal and political. friend President of the United. States; be shares in the common feelings of enthusiam in favor of Henry Clay. Zachary Taylor does not seek office; be does not desire nomination ; he would prefer what of privacy can be allowed to such a man, while he could see the Presidential chair filled 'by Henry Clay, or any such a man, if any other such man can be found. But one man does not make a President fdr twenty milliotis of people; and it should be thought best by the people that General Taylor should be the candidate of the Whig party, to restore the Presidency to its former state be will not say, wt."

Cassu.On Wednesday morning the (21s • • inst . .) two Co l al Trains came together on the Mine Hill Rad-reitid, just at the bend of the Road where it crosses Third street, in' the borough.. The eel cident is attributal entirely to carelessness in the break-men . in charge of the trains. They were. fully overloaded trains, and both running the same way, but with _reprehensible speed. The hind most train nting with greater velocity than the fo+ost one'. rith upon it with an impetus which literally piledlthe care upon each other, oversetting some and crushing inhere. , The • violence of the encounter wa i t; such, that one or tiro of the cars wei;el aheolutely thrown, not only off the track, buti over the' up track and off the; road. Very fortunately, this installer, no lives were lostr nor, limbs broken, and I suppose it ,will not be till after lives have been destroyed, in .the result of accidents of this kind, which are lamentably ire- Trent on this) road, that break-men jwill learn to exercise a privet care in regulating the speed 'of their trains. I 1;4 I The load is-an inclined pliiin, of easy grade, and, it is a subject of general coinphtint . that the. life and lim b of citizens, and especially of chil dren; in'the borough, are daily exposed to destruc tion and accident, by the reckless rapidity with which trains are passed over it. It is time alien= tion was given 'to the enforcement of the law on this!suliject, which is now alyrgether disregarded; I suppose hoWever, there will be rioeffectual rem edy! for a the pilesent evil, till the Mine Hill Com pany hive placed Locoinoti'ves on the Road, a consummatioti devoutly to be wished" and - which will probably 'be effected in the course of the pre sent year. • • „Sons ,of Temperance.—l understand that some of the Ladies of our borough, have pu•chased an elegant copy of ,the Holy Bible, which will be preiented• in their, behalf, to the Division of the Sons of Temperance here, about the tenth of next month. Thief is an appropriate and expressive gift; especiallylto en order organized upon the beau tiful' principles of Love, Purity and Fidelity— practising charity in its widest range and most ex tensive' compass—in its most significant and ho liest; sense ; I d exhorting and stimulating its members to t ie habitual exercise of Friend hip andi'Pruth. It is a 'gratify ing fact, that, in alrka k t every place 4ere; the Sons of Temperance hat opened a. Division; the ladies have excited them seLves to. present it with a -copy of the Sacred WOtd, to which all the obligations of the Order are 'referable, as the source of every, good. This ent,ouragement from them furnishes - the mem= berii of the Order, with an additional incentive to the fulfillmentiof their . duties. I f indsays l Entertainnient.—Lindsay and his Coriipany gave an entertainment here on Wed; nesday evening lait, which was, I understand well .i atttndeil,l and passed agreeably. Lind say its a - funny fellow, sod knows how to mike an audience laugh ! The performance was held in The Ball-room of D.

The Roman Catholic Church recently,erected, _if allarge and handsome Gothic building of stone, "it is!not yet finished, the Congregation now wor ship. in it however. The interior, and especially the Altar furniture, will do credit to ;he architect, Mr.!lsaac Lykens. - 1 New Building..—l have_not,counted the new finildings now under way, butriwill•-try to do so some of these days-.l think your readers will be astonished at their number. Nevertheless, more are required - than are cominenca. Improvement howiever, has begun and will.go on doing its work. Midersville must grow. The enterprise of our people, fur a timu so nearly dornisnt, is roused, but !hardly enough even yet•-' 7 a little more energy, a, little more public spirit, and perhaps most of tilt, a - little' more capital would not be amiss.
