MAINE; Tttata.xCE CottreNriox.—The
State' Temperance Convention assembled at
I3angor, on Wednesday.. A series of resolu - -
tions were adopted, declaring that experience
had demonstrated the necessity for a prohibi
tory liquor law, and rejoicing that the.Deme
crtsts had thrown off the mask and arrayed
themselves in opposition - to the Temperance
cause. The resolutions also declare that the
Portland riot was instigated by unprincipled
politicians, and commend Goiernor Morrill as
well worthy of re-election to the post he now
occupies. Neal Dow, Mayor, was not present
at the Convention, his attendance being pre
vented by serious illness. The 'Convention
adjourned in the evening. There was a strong
feeling in the body against the regular Dem
ocratic party, in consequence of the Maine
Law resolution of the recent Dentocnitic State
Convektion. The course of - Neal Dow -.rela
tive to the Portland riot was sustained.

known practitintiir_in pulmonary and bron
chial diseases, and tire distinguished from the
empyrical progriqames usually pOt forth thro'

With 'these qualities to recommend them to
our attention, we cannot but welcome the ap
pearance of thesniartieles as heralding in im
portant and benefiCial revolutimt in the tradi
tions rind practietkof the medical profession.
There' s uo pursult, in which ths spirit o f old
fogyiani has, ins rte of the enlightenment Of
the ,age, managed more completely to tram
mel and subdue the human intellect. Witha
view to unity, likej t he Roman Catholic Church,
it maintains its Weld upon the almost super
stitious awe andl reverence of ignorant and
unreasoning minds by ipvolving the little Of
truth that it posseises in technical phraseole
. gy, derived from ,ktssical sources, and conse
quently incomprehensible to the multitude.' '
.. But. few men elonging to' the craft—kir`

Like the novitiatiiof the Egyptian , priesthood,

after a, long,' andl i often painful probation.';
There has been 'theft() no short cut to pro

within

its canons. Anyl man departing frow-the
1 :1
beaten! road laid - , own for his guidance has.
been invariably '4 . eated as an outcast, and
stigmatized as a qOack. Thn result has been,
that whilst the- medical profession has been'
reduced to a clean monopoly, it has extended
'but little its sphere of knowledge, and hai
consequently conferred less benefits upon the

it
One of the bars by which the professioa 1 1
has endeavored ', fence itself around, - has
been the. prohibition or discouragement held 1
out to all attemptslon the part of its inemberii
to enter into direct communication with the
public. , A medida) man may address himself
through the medni? of a book, and under the
cover of techniegities to his own profession,
but he must not t peal to the common sense
and natural intal igence of the uninitiated
members of the e:ommunity, lest the uremia
of the healing aft4should cease-to be, like the
Elexiiyiliari mystd 'es, an exclusive and profit
able possession.- ‘ ''t he effect of this jealoni

dignation under riitraints, the direct bearing
of which has beef to protect the privileges of
ii
the senior memb ers
of the profession, and
keep . down and diScourage as much as possi
ble all evidences ' o rising talent. 1
We are rejoim4to find that one man, and
that a practitioneti, whose professional merits
and' skill cannot fbi• a moment be questioned,
has had the mora courage to break through
the trammels irn , sea upon him by the old
t
routine of his art, t Dr: Hunter wisely, and in
time, arrived at the conclusion that if such
acquirements as h',' possessed were worth any;
thing, the more S . tensive the circulation he
gave to the resul l ' !, of his researches and eiv.,
perience the grea er the bene fi ts he would
not only confer ukon himself but upon the
community. Betiteen the limited publicity' s
afforded him by Jhe usual professional re
source of book publication and that offered by ]
the newspapers it•iiis not surprising that he!
chosethe latter .:' '',t presented the advantages t
of rapidity, comprehensiveness and popularity,
objects which.to 'enem ambitious of fame in !
his profession, we, the readiest :and surest ,

We have had', Personal experience , of. the
happy results of 4e Doctor'S mode of treat'

through the months of ,July and August, (the dul

crouding the trade and enhancing prices towards
the close of the season::
The Philadelphia Ledger says
1 * 1
"We understand these is rather more than the
usual competition. in the retail coal trade of this
city. The Lehigkwhlfe ash coal has for years
stood first on the hitt, and in this market commands
.usually from fifty centS:to ono dollar per ton more
than the red ash coal (Pori other coal regions.—
This being The fact,' ills said tbat some dealers
advertise the gray asli.6al from 'Tamaqua as Le
high coal:" The Taneakea coal comes to market by
way of the Sehuylkill, , , It is a very good coal of
its kind, but is not whit is known in the market
as Lehigh coal, whieW4eaches hero through the
Lehigh and Delaware Canals. We t til ,not desire,
to direct buyers to axlipartieular coal; , we only
.wish to give them information of s fitet. If the
Tamaqua coal isk.hetter:worth its, price, than•thei .
Lehigh is the price deManded for it, ofteursii it
will find buyers, and rice versa."
The writer sit the *key article! In the Ledger;
is deeply interested kg Lehigh stock and loans,
which accounts for thegreat leaning Of these arti
cies to the Lehigh Re run. There is however
nothing wrong in thisi:4Slum the truth is told—
but the above article itivery ingeniously 'Written,
Jesuitical in its chameter, and far from the truth.
or in other words, conceals the truth. It
would convey the impression that the Lehigh Re
gion only produces White Ash'Coal, anti that the
Coal from other Regititii is Red and Gray A ; sh.—
Schuylkill County produces Red,:Gray and White
Ash Coal—at Tamaqualut - one Red Ash Colliery
Is worked—and the laiger portion of the Coal is
White Ash, being the 4{ttie reins worked by tAe
Lehigh Company only fOur stiles East of Tamaqua,
where the Region* narrows,-and the veins are
thrown together which' orms l the Lehigh Summit
Coal beds or quarry 4 The Schuylkill Broad
Mountain White Ash Veins of Coal aro the same
s. the Lehigh veins; and the Coal is equal in
quality6s any of the:jtehigh. It is true that
some portions of the Lehigh Coal is a little hard
er than portions of the Schuylkill White Ash; but
there are White Ash veins equally as hard in some
portions of Schuylkill i-Ounty, and better in quail-'
ty too than some portidns of the Lehigh. A few
years ago the Editor:; of this paper was en
gaged in th e Coal business, and mined Coal from
the Jugular or Mammal) .vein above - St. Clair,
which was equal to any Coal furnished by the:Lo
high Region, for manufacturing M. any other pur
poee. At that period We furnished a factory with
this Coal Still:Oleg at tlta side of the Lehigh Com
pany's Wharves at Reasington. '.They, after trial,
preferring to cart this foal from the Schuylkill, to
tisinV h'ehigh whic Could ho obtained within
a std trow of their:tactory. And oven now,
there are a largo, ntm4r of manufacturers • Who
vastly prefer the Schitylkill Coal,
: when they
procure good Coal with§ut admixture with more
inferior qualities. If the facilities for transship =
moot weregren ter atFhiladelphia, and the Schuyl
kill Coal from the differ of veins could ho shipped
separate, or only the suit:ebb) kinchimixed, it would
be found equal in quality for the various purposes
for which it is required to that of any other Coril
produced in the country; For culinary purphscs
the Schuylkill Red •Ash:; and Gray„Ash Coals are
preferred to all others; and in the Now York Mar
kets particularly, end ato in other markets,i the
Schuylkill Red Ash t'eali command a higher
pried than any .of the White Ash Coals from
Lehigh or elsewhere 7 --and good Red Ash Conlin
Schuylkill County always commands 25 cents a
ton more than the White Ash Coal, in conse
quence of the quantity heing limited.
The whole'setret of tIo matter is P imply this—'
the Lehigh Coal is prePjlred better for the mar
ket; and having but OW, varieties,. they find out`
its _adaptativeness to tbiPurposes for which it
rased, and sell it necordlogly. When our Broad
Mountain Coal is proPAted equal to that of the
Lehigh, atidis kept seOrate from other kinds, it
will 'command as high *price' as the Lehigh or
any other White Ash : Coal. The Mabanoy and
Ashland Coal from the%iSecond Basin, is eqUal to
any 'Lehigh Coal ever ;icffered in the market, and
so long as it is kept sepaiate, will command as high
a prie . e as the Our objeci is not to dis
parage Lehigh Coal.bUto vindicate our own.—
The Coal from the Lehigh Region, so long as it is
better, prepared than out` Coal, will, and ought to
.commend a higher pricleihectiuse the cost is .ma
'terially enhanced by thj increased care in its pro
duction. If the Lehigti.poal was sent to market
in a bad condition,,as aconsiderable portion was
,last year, the complitinia would be quite as nu
merous as they have' been with regard to Coal
from Schuylkill County..; - Sebuylkill Coal, however, ,
is shipped Much better this year than it was last .
season.
An experiment was recently made in Conl for
Locomotives on ono of the Eastern Railroads.—
Lehigh and Cumberland:Soml was tried, and the
preference given to Cutaberlancl over the Lehigh.
Afterwards a trial wax ktado of Schuylkill Gray
Ash, and found to.bo stitiOrior for Locomotive use
than either the CuinbOrihnd or Lehigh. • In some ,
instances the purity.4::the Coal is an objection
and unsuita it for some tities; while for Other pur
poses its greater-purityommende it. For en in
tense heat, and particularly for stitching , iron, a
bard, compact, tenaciottionl'is required, while
for other purposes a hard- Coal that, beryls with
considerable flame and iractures More easily, is
preferred—for other pu4oses a soft, free-burning
Coal is preferable to eithol of the other kinds. •
To those uninitiated into the Cotil Regions, we
will here remark, that t4ro are, properly 'speak
ing, three Basins of Anthracitoi Cori in the State
—they arc known as follows: .
• Tho first or SchuylkikDaiita !extends front' the
Summit Hill in Carbon County! through Schuyl
kill County to the Swataia, wherclit divides, and
one branch extends to tliti 'S'icenisco l and another to
the Dauphin Cempaniir lands. Tho Summit
Mines above Mauch Chnitk is the Eastern end of
this Basin, whero the COI is thrown in a pile or
quarry, embracing tho Br ead Mouniain veins only,
.1
and ono or two of the Ash veins.. We would
hero remark, that generally speaking, the Coal is
hardest at the East/fn termination: of the Basins
—there is, howerr, but,aittle pctleptible 41iffer
rue° in the Broad Mountain reoge for a distance
of at least 25 ore mil4from Summit Hill.
The second , the lifahanoy and Shamokin,
or Middle'Basik. ThIS: Basin has for Us East
ern terminus the isolatodeotil fields above.Mauch
Chunk, such as the *siver Meiulow, Rancton,
.Jeansville, hr., lying in4. l ehuylyll, Carbon, and
Mame Counties. - Frittri this - ils4 -the purest
Coal is mined. The Conlin this B a its, ae it ap
proaches the west, also Ocomes softer, and finally
terminates in a species ;Of serni-bitritainous Coal
at Tresorgan. Some of,'-this veins however at
Shamokin, produce ieri herd 'White Ash Coal,
while others produce Red.:Ash. In .tbe , neighbor
hood of Ashland and Miiiint Cannel, and also at
the Colliery of Cochran, tale & CO., the Coal is
very. hard. •
The third Itatin Is thtf.Vilkesbarre Region; all

the veins is not equal t . s that found in the Schuyl

and the Coal, generally speaking; is not as good

The whole -may boenuyned up, as follows:

hoMßes aro generally built in the cottage skylip
surrounded with tastefilly laid out gardens, and

are Indebted for valuable information.

better than it is generally deseribed to be, by those
who';are 'thew Nothings in respect ;to
