THE leading Copperheads in New'York are
preparing to reorganize that so-called Demo-
cratic party. It said that - Free Trade is lobe .
openly avowed as one of the planks in the
platform. By putting in this plank.they.ex
pect to obtain large sums of money from for
eign manufacturers and importers to break
down the domestic industry of theecountry.
There is not now a single Copperhead mem
ber of Congress that Is not opposed to the
Protective policy of the country. One-or two
Pennsylvanians "voted for Protection at the
last session, but they finally shirked the ques
tion, by absenting themselves when the prin,
cipal vote was taken. They will be found
hereafter voting with the Free Trade Party,
in effect, although several may refrain from •
openly: voting with them for tear of their
constituents in Pehnsylvania. •

the blood of half a million murdered citizens,
against whom have risen to Heaven the cries

119 951 03 tons against- 132.698 tons for-the

The -trade is dull. The recent auction sale

year, Schuylkill. County loses - nearly .13,000
tons, while the L.bigh. haying its Outlets at
New York, gains 23 000 tons.
If we only had a few public, spirited men
among our capitalists, this state of affairs
would soon be altered ; bat they are princi

The Lehigh Valley Railroad: has beea ex-;.
'tended to VVilkesbarre hi the Wyoming Coal
Region, and its opening was celebrated.-by a
large party on. Wednesday last; who passed
over the road. In the course of the-yearithe
Lehigh Navigation Company will have their.
railroad
.leading into the IVilkesbarre coal
basin completed froin Mauch Chunk to - E-ts
ton; giving that Region two railroads and a
canal as outlets, while the whole trade of the
Lehigh Region' alone could be. accommoda-
fed by,a single, railroad • confined to .through
traffic. While avenues ate multiplying from
all the regions around us, we are forced to
submit to the -tyranny of a foreign corpora
tion: which is absolutely .worse than the
grievances which caused our forefathers to
throw off the British yoke. How long ! oh,
how long Will Schuylkill County submit to
such tyranny ! • _ .
THE, MAintOTH VEIN STRUCK TS THE 'SHAFT

the Mammoth Vein,-E, in the above mentioned
shaft yesterday.' The coal le excellent, bet
they have not yet ascertained: its thickness.
The vein inown 'as the 7 foot,. which lies
above, the Mammotr*, is 'lO-feet thick where
struck, Which would seeni to confirm the
opinioo that. the veins • increase in- thick
ness in the . -bottom of the.basins. near the
north pitch of the veins, where they are •fre
quently squeezed out and are thinners. This .
shaft was located in September, 1864, by the
Messrs. Sheafers, mining engineara, .to strike
the basin•of the Mammoth coal bed,' and hint
proved a wonderful success: After careful
surveys. and geological examinations .they
computed the depth of
,the 'Mammoth to be:
607 feet from the valjey of the Rot Norwe
Otto. It Was struck at a depth of 619 feet; 6
inches. ' • • •

The enormous facilities possessed:by Brazil for the
opening out cif a large trade in coal has been several
times alluded to, and oonsidering the fact that tro.less
an authority than Professor Agamiz - proroiunces the
coal to•unquestionably belong to the catboniferons pe
*Hai, it la remarkable that so little has hitherto been
done to turn the diseoveries made to commercial ad
vantage. Specimens of the coal from the mines on
the River Jagnarao; discovered.by Mr Nathaniel Plant-,
have recently been - forwarded to this Country by the
Consul at Rio deWnelro, and are no*.deposited in the
Museum ,of Practical Geology, in Jermyn-street, 'They
are accompanied by. an elaborate report by the discos,
erer, in whichlt is stated that one• of the princinal Mo
ttoes of this coal field, as far as it .has been diamined.
consists in the great depth of some of the coalbeds;
and the facilities which If presents M a long escarp
