From This it is allow tat the Anthracite Coal trade in 18.52, gave full 'and regular employment to 15,110 men, 6,079 boys and 6,079 . Vestels and Bargee, with an aggregate of 622,080 registered, enrolled and licensed tonunage. From the Report of 'the Committee on Com merce and Navigation, it is shown that in tile year ending June 30, 1853, there was cleared from all- the ports .of the United States ai fidlows: American vessels 10;001—tontge, 2,766,769; with crews of men, 145,254; and boys, 1,635. For-1 eign vessels, 11,680-tonnage, 2,298,790, with crews of men 120,754 and tieys 1,560; making a greed total of 21,681 vessels with a tonnage amounting .te 6,065,579 tons, and 266,008 men and 3,095 boys as crews. , - 1 From the report made by. the Committee Lt ip impossible to ascertain the number of vessels arid also the men and boys permanently engaged. it required one entire year for a vessel to make a trip,lhen the extract above given.might show the actual number of vessels, men and boys constant ly employed; but as trips are frequent, each time the vessels clear, the vessels and crews are multi plied, and therefore the only thing to bale a com parison on, is the tons actually shipped, or the regular:registered tonnage employed; for should every trip be added that -Coal carrying vessels make, it would increase the coasting vessels and crews . lB times, and the Canal Barges and crews the saine,and give a result as follows'; • espi. aors a 2-4,622, 129,468 26,622 82,600, .165,600 86,800 Vessels, Bargee, Total, '107,422 29 5,088 . - 113,422 But as the Vessels and Barges employed in the Coal trade make their tripe in a shorter ,time than those engaged in . tbe•lforeign trade,. t this course would he unjust. Therefore It is deemed to be the moat fair as well as just mode of draw.- ing a comparison, to give the toms clea'red, which was as follows: Total amount of tonnage cleared' from the fol lowing ports to . Foreign countries in American and Forelgu Teasels in j the year ending June 30, 1853: From •boston, New YOrk, 2 - " Philadelphia, ; " llitltitnore, - " Savanna, - - " Charleston, - " Mabile, - " New Orleans, - The total amount of tons cleared - froth all the, ports in the United States during the same, period I was ; in American. vessels, 3,776,789 tons-'—in For eign vessels, 2,298,7901 tons—makirik a grand to tal of 6,065,5.70 tons. : The total amount ofAnthracite Coal cleared to distant poitito front the ports at tide water during! the year ending December 31, 1853 was 3,995,151 tons: if to this is added the amount transported' on the Canals, 3,612,903 tons', it gives an ag gregate of 7,608,054 Mils carried by. water. • From the above statement it is shown, that the clearances of Anthracite Coal from the tide water ports 8 1one 7 .exceed by . 820,202 tons the entire clearances in American and Foreign vessels from the eight principal ports abovemamed,and 218,362 tons more than'the total clearane'ss from all theports in the United States in AmeriCan vessels. If to the clearances be added the internal or Canal clearances it will give an excess of 1,542,475. bins over all the clearance: , from the United States in American and Foreign hottoMS combined. , In tits clearances to Foreign'! countries is inclu ded 79,510 tons of America:4oon/, which of right should he pliteed4o the credit of the Coal Trade. . But ..enough, has been shown to satisfy all who hare, the interest of Ainerica at heart. that a trade like this should not be sacrificed to'gratify the cu pidity of foreigners.

It dates back to 1828, ',having been consolidated with the "Sous of Liberty," in Cincinnati. Ohio. Its object is rep6rted to he both patriotic and benevolent. , In :politics thi,s "order" , is said to be in favor of the prin ciples advocated by the National Nativi Amer ican party, which .assembled in old Ipdepen dence Hall, at Philadelphia, in 1845, ird join their brothers in the South in keepinpout all other ism.s from their ranks inn nntiodal point of view.
