GOVERNOR EYRE, •ON JAMAICA.—The Ja
maica Committee in England, having taken
adVice of counsel lort_ the'subjeet, have been
Informed that the report of .the_Royal Coin
missioners furnishes sufficient grounds for an
indictment for murder against Goiernor Eyre
and the other persons concerned in the trial
and execution of Mr. Gordon. .The Com
mittee have, therefore; instructed their law
yers to proceed forthwith with an indictment
for murder against Governor Eyre. This trial
will be one of the most important in British
legal history. ' . ' ,
THE New York Herald takes the high"and
just ground that three-fourths of the loyal cir
adhering States are sufficient for the Tatifi&l.-
tlon of the new constitutional amendnient,
and that it is the duty of Congress to
,pass
enabling acts, under which the'communitiee
that. seceded from and fought to destroy the
Union, and in their failure to do so became
thereby _subjugated, may be organized for the
purpose bf securing "republican govern
ment" to such of their inhabitants as were
true. to tile Republic. In this' position the
.Herald is sustained by the ablest jurists
, of
the country. ' :
I addition to a Registry law for Schuyl
-411 County, we want a law providinglor the
election of Jury_ Commissioners who Shall
have.entire control of the business of Select
ing Jurors. Let them be selected as Inspect
ors of elections now are, and. the 'machinery
of:justice can be mainly removed from the'
political .arena. We hope that these neces
sary laws 'will be given to -us by the next
Legislature. - The Copperhead members
from this County will oppose them of course,
but the Union members_ should diuregard
our misrepresentatives, and - give us what we
want,. and equitably should have. •
THE Copperhead journals here and else
where: throughout the State, repudiate the
declaration of the Chicago Times for negro:
suffrage. This only shows how difficult it is'
to consolidate a party around an Idea which
it never possessed, and which is entirely
'foreign -to its niture ; and= andals - o the hopeless
condition of a party which' is:so unlucky, as
to
-have no idea at 'all that the people will
approve. But we surmise that these Pennsyl!
_vents Copperheads are losing preciOus time,
for we observe that the Conservative Army
aud*Nayy Union" of Washington, composed
•of Johnsonites and Copperheads, formally
adopted resolutions &few nights ago declaring
it to be the duty of the Conservative press 'of
the country to advocate the extension of suf
frage to the neg,ro, upon such qualified basis as
may be deemed proper and Just. What will
our Copperhead friends'hereabouts do, if the
South accepts negm suffrage ? - Will they.:
overcome their prejwi ices, and embracing the
negro at kat. Tnotest that they always loved
hid dearly? Who knows? . : 'There are

• Tut following is' an extract from a report 'on
'the iron and . E3',sel 'Works - of •Ecigland and Wales;
made for Burd Patterson, Eeq., bf W. Griffith-
. .
. .
Dowlais' iron works are situated twO Miles north of
-Merthyr. Tydvill. ,They • are considered the, largest
workstn the world. More than fifteen thousand men.
are here employed.• The works are owned by the heirs
'of the !ale Sir *J. J. Guest, ant. They have 19 blast
furnaces of the largestkind, 160 puddling faraftces: 96
• heating furnaces, and 23 trains of relict. Otie of them
-is a fonr high train for rolling girder Iron.- They, have
rolled a 15..inchgirder 35 feet long : with this' train.—.
•:They produce at 'these works Weekly, from 2,000 . to
2.500 tons of thiiShed iron. They have a strong revers
ing:steel rail mill 'here—one ef . • the :stiongest.'in the
country.. This mill only works on theday shiff, owing
-to nothavlng 'sufficient steel made in the eo.nverting •
.house.... When the whole of the.ptts in the converting •
house are :ready, this milt will - Work night and day,
and wilt turn out 500 tons'of steel rails per Week. • The
ingots at these works are not•hammered bat rolled ie.
to ?dooms. then r-"lled into Mils- This is a great
proVement on anything done at any of the other steel
rail works. They have also an mots , mical system here
.that I slid not see at any of the other places ; 'that is,.
after' the steel rail - is. rolled:and the ends cut off: the
crops that are large. enough'are.taken to.a plate miff
and.rolleci into sheets for making shovels, Ac.. ThoSe
that are too small are taken to the converting, house,
'heated Ma heating furnace, then thrown: into the con
verter and remelted. ' In-fact, the whole of the ar ,
rangement, foi.relling steel rails at Dowlals - is by far
the best rsaw in England or Wales. .1 - have samples
of the steel rnils,'and will say that•.therare equal to
any steel rails in England:' I note asignifleard fact and
of great. importance to us here _'they use at•Dmelais 4
certain proportion of the same iron 'ere that we have.
here in the coal formation of Schuylkill County.' I
watched the operations at Dowlais, with. regard to the'
iron ore. in fact, was invited to de sn by. Mr. Manelicas.
the intelligent manager of those works from. whom. I.
had a great dealer 'information.. Ile told me that rail
road companies Wonld buy nothing hot steep rails'ln .a
short .time. They use at Dowlais every - week . about
12.000 tons of coal. 'And Iwould remark that the iron
works. 01 South Waleic, from Ifirwain to. Pont y Pool,.
• a distance of about 2ft
mileic produce 25.000 tons of fin
ished-iron per week at least, and sonstinie of coal for.
that'preduction 120 000 tons per week, or 6,000,000 tons
per:year. exceeding.by one and a half' million of.tons,
the whole product.cif Schuylkill County in 1965.

We.have printed a number. of petitions.
asking 'Congress to impeach-the President.
These
These petitionsought to be filled up as, rapid
ly as possible,-and poured • into C'ongress
Throughout the West they are tilling.up pe•-
titions rapidly. Business would soon become
prosperou's again, and the South•wduld be

outrages were distributed among them. " • .
The itnpression' is also rapidly . . gaining
ground. that. Andiew Johnson had some :
knowledge of the intended murder - of Abra
.ham Lincoln, when • it took place, which
'may in • some measure, account for his
making the inquiry whether it. was ne
cessary° for him .to be at the . Inaugura
tion, and for his drunken and beaitly conduct
on that occasion: ill recollected that'the
assassination was first fixrd to take plaee at
the Inauguration. A. common drunkard would
have kept sober on such an oectiaion; if he
had not a troubled conscience. •
• A letter from. Washington, publiihed in an
..other part of this paper; to' a Boston journal,
in alluding to investigations made, will Un
questionably startle, the whole country. It
will be recollected that when- Andrew John. ,
ion in his Proclamation declared that Jeffer 7

But,. pray, of what avail is it toparadOstatements
of the President's 'docility, while he is' 'all the

at which Scranton ,coal ell at -auction on
Tuesday last hai completely. paralyzed the
trade for a tinie: Lump ,coal sold at the av
erage 'price of $3,81. ' . ort board wssels' at
ElizabettiPort—a large portion as low as
$3.65 per ton. Add , 70 cenfs, the freight
from Elizabethport to New-York city,' and it
gives $4 51 per' ton for Scranton lump coal
,delivered at NeW York. Thu height alone
on'a ton of lump coal from Schuylkill Court
tyis $3 .3 a - ton, which would leave for the
coal 58 cents per ton, put in the, cars or boat's
No person . in this Region, with preseat pii
ces of the necessaries of life, can minennti
sell.lump coal . under $3 a ton, except at a lose:
Stove coal, which isnoW in the most demand,'
sold at an average of $5 31- 7 -add 70 cents
freight—giving $6 01, at NeWYorli. Deduct -
freight, and: it leaves forthe producer here,
without any commissions, $2 . 03. 'Stove coal

a ton without a positive loss, and if we were
called upon to make a choice beta een the
twoin a pecuniary 'point of view,' we would
choose the losses on these prices: instead Of
the profit% and -would be largely the gainer.
'Of course those who have purchased the
40.000 tons of .Scranton coal at these rates
will make a good thing - Of it.. Those who
nurchesed to sell again 'are not going to "be
such fools as . to reduce thepriee below the
cost of production in all the regions; when
they know that coal .cannot and Will - not be
Produced. and sold lower' than. the Prices
ruling, before the sale If they do, it Would
Shut up all the collieries until prices ruled so
higiffees to pay for the cost of production and .
tranaportation at least. The quantity sold at
this: sale is but 'n small portion.of the, coal
required for the market; but the effect of the
sale must necessarily check sales even at cost
-for a time, and in the meantimenlarge por .
tion ot the collieries must necessarilyclose up.
These low rates. have been caused by the
want of adequate. protection on many ,arti
cles, the stoppage of factoriee and n general
stagnationin almest all . branches of busineis,
which . of .course limits Consumption. But
the greatest 'cause of all is the total Want of
confidence' in the miserable AdministratiOn
