EX-SENATOR BccseLzw, the regular
Democratic nominee for the State Senate
in the Columbiana District, is, they say,
to be choked off from the track by one
of his rivals for the nomination. It is
predicted that Mr. BuckaleW has not the
courage to stick.
Wasurneron correspondent of the
Cincinnati Commercial insists that Justice
Giant, of the Supreme Court, did declare
at the Williamsport tend; recently, his.
intention to resign, but learns that his
personal friends have induced him to re

nate for "Mr. BRADLEY, of New Jersey."

the good sense to table a resolution pledg

SAFETY FOR MINERS.
Senator Turner, of the Luze,nm dis•
trice, has by this time found out whether
or not "his people desire" the enactment
of laws for the regulation of coal zdnes
and for the preMetion of the lives of those
employed therein. His d4terminedoppo
=II
j r
~
'---- - - -
sition to legislative interference with 'the
question in V.ne State Senate, lastflpring,
caused the 'defeat of a . bill which had al
ready passed the House, and which com
prehended ample provisions for the se
curity of under. ground life. This bill
(H. 8.. No. 459) came up on second
res.ding in the Senate, March 31st. Its
special application was to the county of
Schuylkill. Mr. Dawson, of Lebanon,
moved to amend by making it a general
enactment for the entire State, and his
- proposition was supported by Beiators
Errett, White and several others. Yet
the Senator from this very county of Lu
zerne, which is in mourning now for the
reckless destruction of two hundred of its
citizens, objected eo earnestly to its pas
sage, that the general amendment was
I lost, by a vote of 14 to 12, and the original
bill, for Schuylkill county, also failed to
become a law.
Senator Turner "had not heard from
his constituents; did not know whether
they desired such legislation or not;
thought it was rough treatment to Lu
zerne to force the bill upon them until
they ask for it; there was no such immi
nent danger from fire-damp arid other
causes, in the newer mines of his county;
the time was approaching when Luzerne
would want such a law, but not now; he
had not read the bill and did not know
what was in it," Sc., &c. He opposed
the bill, because there had been no fire
damp explosions in Luzerne, and voted
against it after learning that its provisions
includeda general system for regulating
ventilation, and the safety of egress from
the mines, and for a State inspection.
It is worthy of note that this bill,
which, had it been permitted to become
a law, would hive completely prevented
the Avondale disasterous supported by
twelve Senators, all Republicans, and
that eleven of the fourteen negative votes
were cast by Democratic Senators, includ
ing those from the Lehigh, Carbon, Wy
oming, Schuylkill, Lycoming, Northum
berland, Blair, Clearfield and Westmore
land mineral districts. Not a Demo
cratic Senator was found to vote for legis
lative protection for the lives of a class of
their constituents whom that party claim
an especial interest in. We do not say
that party lines were drawn on a question
always of public interest, but it is remark
' able that every Democratic Senator
should have recorded his name against it.
The people of Luzerne, as of other min
ing districts, wonli do well to reflect
upon the expediency of supporting a
party which makes such a fatal mistake.
The. public voice is at last unanimous
in demanding that the proper safeguards
for the lives of miners shall be prescribed
1 by law:: Probably no better system can
I be devised than was embodied in the bill
which was thus unfortunately defeated at
:the last session of our l Legislature. We
have not its text before us, but fienators
declared that - its provisions were as nearly
complete as they could be made. After
the shocking experience which at last
covers so many humble households with
the pall of death, we may presume that
even a Luzerne Senator has discovered
what his people want, and that there will
be no more of short-sighted opposition,
partisan or otherwise, to the enactment
of suitable safeguards for the future pro.
tection of the lives of our miners.
In view if our reflection, in yesterday's
GazErrg, upon the culpable failure of
our State government to provide against
such entirely avoidable calamities as this
at Avondale, it has seemed proper to
make this statement of the nature of a
recent effort in this direction, and why
that effort failed. The lamentable cons(i•
quences of that failure are now recognized
by the public.
The miners of Luzerne, gathered yes
terday around the fatal scene, were unan
imous in declaring they would no longer
work - in any mines' unprovided with dis
tinct air shafts and avenues for escape.
They meat well; they see what is want
ed, and will take such order as they can,
to secure it. But the necessities of labor
will eventually' lead them to forget or to
ignore this wise resolve,lihile it will be
idle to rely upon the proper precautions
being taken by all the colliery.proprie
tors. The State must intervene with its
authority; it cannot otherwise fulfil the
palpable obligations of government to the
governed.
This disaster has precedents, but, hap
pily, of less fatal magnitude, in the min
ing history of the State. In 1850, a
mine fell in at Carbondale, by which over
one hundred lives were lost, but few of
the operatives escaping. At Phcenix Col
liery, Schuylkill Haven, in July 'B4, a
car going up the incline was, by the break
ing of the chain, precipitated to the bot
tom, and the twenty:one men in it were
killed. An explosion at the Clover Hill
mine, in . April '67, killed all the men then
at work, about seventy in number. At
Scranton, in March, 'as, twelve men
were killed 'by the breaking of a
hoisting chain. In November- 'O7
the Pine Ridge colliery, in Luzerne,
was closed to extinguish fire.damp; when
subsequently-opened an explosion oc
curred, but fortunately without loss of
life. A. Senator from that county de
clared last winter in his place at the Cap
itol;that there was no 'danger in the. Lu
zerne mines. gnother explosion in the
same colliery two weeks since, peened
the lives of thirty men, but they all
EME
PMSBIJRGEt -GA ZE TTE FhIDAY, • GEBIBW1,:10:t-Afggt.,
escaped.
An explosion in a colliery of Saxony,
last month, cost several hundred' lives.
In 1861,,167 men were killed in the Prot
ein, 'collieries. According to Prussian
law, the owner is responsible if the scel f
dent is Ponca thcomit of itheselk
or
his agent, and not otherwise. The Ger
man press are advocating the general
adoption of this provision. In England,
the owners of steam-works of any kind
are responsible for such damages as may
occur, and associations have been formed
for mutual inspection and assurance, with
the result of a marked decrease in the
number of casualties..E Both in England
and on the Continent, public opinion be
gins to favor the declaration of a legal lia
bility, on the part of the mine-owners,
for the support of operatives who are dis
abled by their neglect, and of the families
01 such_as may be killed. It is difficult t
perceive any good reasons why such
declaration should not be made._
The neglect of . Pennsylvania to pro
vide for the suitable regulation of mining
works has resulted in a fatal catastrophe.
The miners of Luzern look today upon
the unburied bodies of two hundred of their
comrades, whose lives were sacrificed by
the cupidity or recklessness of their em
ployers, bat which might all have been
saved, had the State done its plain duty
in the premises. These operatives feel
sorely tempted to avenge their lost coin:
rades as murdered men. We hope they
will listen to better counsel, and look-for
remedies rather than revenge. Their em
ployers have been within the law; here
alter, that law should have sharper limits
and a narrower scope. When these miners
come to kuov,r what wise provisions have
been ineffectually proposed for their pro
tection, and how the proposal has been
baffled, they will see when and how to
secure what is wanted for the future.
THE WISER SOUTH.
If opposition partisanship in Pennsyl
vania bad even a fraction of the practical
good sense of some of their Southern
brethren, they would talk as the Memphis
Avalanche does, in the following:
The fiery rage and mad fury which
the civil war provoked will never burn
out so long a'Democrats present Issues
as stale and impracticable as they are
obnoxious to the people. Much as we
may dislike the decision, the result of
the last Presfdential election settled the
reconstruction aud nee . ° suffrage con
troversy. The Democratic party has no
national party; and instead of forming
itself upon such new issues as the exi
genciee of the times require, we
hear
r the
little men chirping like requi re , we
meadowk, nothing but Democrat, Demo-
crat.
In Virginia, not a few citizens who, in
other days acted with - the same party.
have found their opinions as well as
their State polity reconstructed by the
progress of events. In a few days more.
the people of Virginia_will resume the di
rection of their state government, and it
is interesting to know with what spirit
these responsibilities are to be aiaulned,by
a people to whom it is not long since that
the word Democracy was the most potent
shibboleth. We find that they propose to
offer the most convincing proofs of their
honest submission to the Federal policy
as interpreted by a Republican President
and Congress, and of their resolution to
support this policy faithfully. They even
propose to affix the signatures of the mem
bers of their first Legislature to written
and public pledgee, that the interests of
all classes and races of the people are to
be regarded with equal solicitude, and
their just rights uniformly main
tained in all State legislation. This
is not the spirit of the Virginia of
1861, nor of any southern section of the
old Democracy, nor of Democracy in
Pennsylvania to-day, but it is a spirit
which, illustiated.faithfully for the future,
will work, ere long, the restoration of the
Old Dominion to her leading place of in
fluence and power in the Republic.
Melancholy, indeed, world tie the public
anticipations for the future of that great
Commonwealth, were the principles and
purposes now avowed by the Democratic
leaders of Pennsylvania to be the ac
cepted platform at Richmond._ Through
out all the South, but one State can be
found where the partizanship of - Penn
sylvania and Ohio are emulated. They
will ere long flnd how little Georgia is
profited by opinions
'and a policy which
her wiser sister States - 4)f the rebellion are
discarding. The new issues which our
Democracy reject are already accepted as
the corner-stones of material reconstruc
tion at the South.

awnings and chimneys. and strewing
the streets with limbs of trees. About
.ne hundred and forty feet of the spire
of a new Catholic Cathedral, on Cumber
land street. which was dedicated yester
day, blew over across Cumberland street,
crushing through the roof of the house of
Capt. Eben D. Choate, opposite, damag
ing it to the extent of $30,000. The gilt
cross came down into the second story
chamber. The family narrowly escaped
injury. The brick and stone work of the
tower escaped injury—the part which
fell being wood. •

LUNG-WORT.
One of the truest and most suggestive ideas
can be obtained from the caption - at the head
of
this art cle; for of all diseases which impair
human health and aloe ten human life, none are
more prevalent thin those which affect the lungs
and pulmonary tissues. Whether we regard lang
diseases in the light of a merely align cough,
which is but the fore-runner of a more serious •
malady. or as a deep lesion corroding and dis
solving the pulmonary structure, it is always
pregnant with evil and foreboding of disaster.
In no class of maladies should the physician or
the friends and family of the patient be more
seriously forewarned than in those of the lungs,
for it Is in them that early and effleient treat
ment is most desirable, and it is then that danger
can - be warded off and a cere effected. In DR.
KEYSER'S LUNG CURE you have a medicine
of the greatest value in all these conditions. An
alterative, a tonic. a nutrient and reed - lieut,
succoring nature and sustaining the recupera
tive powers of the system, Its beautiful work
ings, in harmony with the regular functions, can.
be readily observed by the lase of one or two Doi
ties: it will soon brevet up the chain of morbid
sympathies that disturb the harmonious work
ings of the animal economy. The hamming
cough, the painful respiration, the sputum ,
streaked with blood, will soon give place to the .
normal and proper workings of health andvigor. •
An aggregated experience of over thirty years
has enabled Dr. Keyser, in the compounding of
his LllbiG CURL to give new bone.to the con
sumptive invalid and at the same time speedy
relief In those now prevalent, catarrhal
and
throat affections, so distressing in their effects
and so almost certainly fatal in their tendencies.
unless cured by some appropriate remedy. DR.
KEYSER'S LUNG CURE is to thorough and ef-
Zeigret, that any one who has ever need It; will
never be without It inshe house. It will often
e falls, and In simple
cure when everything ls
cases will cure oftentimes in a few days..
The attention of patients * , as well 'as medical
men. is respectfully Invited to
acthis
the coun
new and
valuable addition to the pharmy of
try.

until I o'clock r. 11. at his Great Medicine Store,

THE , FEVER AND AGUE SEASON.
When the leaves begin to change. remittent
and intermittent fevers make their appearance.
From the surface of the earth, bathed nightly in
heavy dews, from marshes and swamps tni
charged with moisture, from the dying follage
of the woods. from festering pools and sluggish
streams. the sun of September evolves clouds of
miasmatic vapor perilous to health and life. The
body, deprived by the burning temperature of
July and August of much of its vigor and elas
ticity, is not in a proper plight to resistmalarla ,
and hence all diseases that are produced by a de-
'raved condition of the atmosphere are particu
larly prevalent in the7all."
There is no reason why the health of thousands
of people should be thus sacrificed. A PrePura
