'IN FOR PITTS _ AGM. l i ii The question o furnishing an adequate supply of tolerab y pure water for the in habitants of this city will come up for decidon at a ape meeting of Councils to be held on Mo day next. This is not a measure of su rdinateiniportance. It involves not onl the expenditure of a good deal of m ney, but likewise the comfort and heal, b. of a large find rapidly increasing poputstion. Indicationshaie not been lackirilg recently of an,lnipa tience, on theart of the electors, at trii liberal or ex anent appropriations of municipal fund . But pure water is not a luxury to be d t spenssd with when it can p be obtained. I is a i necessity for which too much canna be paid, provided a less price will not oliftain it. While the tax -payers want an abund ant supply of good water, and are willing to pay any reaionable sum for it, they are sure to be restive if experiments shallibe undertaken that are not sanctioned by men who hay bad ample experience in the matter o water,supply, and have I ' special, siienti c attainments sufficient to I"give the weig t of authority to their sug gestions. • Nor is it f so much consequence to have this que tion disposed of at once or soon, as to ye it fully considered under te.l the aspein which it is presented, so that the decision,"when made, shall prove to be oroughly sound. The va rious sour of water -supply which are cl l at command ave been long ender inves tigation, no simply by the public , and the press, bti by persoip of acknowledged - competency. and duly. employed to that end. If soy additional facts have been recently diselosed which awes fficiently powerful to l et aside er may. modify the conclusions reached two years or more ago, ey have not fallen under our observation The nsibility is with the Councils, and we doubt not they will act with such discretion Mid promptness as 7ifilttlie et the poptgateairotal. , ' , , . ' GIEZE TILE CUBAN EITUATION. The telegraph reports thnt the sympa thies of Admiral Hoff, commanding our Gulf-squadron, are witluthe Cuban i insttr , gents. It would be safe to assutne that the feelings of the men who are at the head of national. affaira at Washington ton in, the same direction. Rebels are 'nearly always poPular with everybody 'except those against whom -they rise in arms. When the Southern States revolt ed their cause was popular almost all over Europe. If good wishes from that quar ter could have availed, - the rebellion, would have proved successful. Some thinkers maintain 'that this marked and universal sympathy with re bellion, is only a vague and unconscious protest against the evils which necessarily inhere in all Governments devised and conducted by fallible human beings. Other thinkers contend that this sympa. thy is only the expression of a natural de light which most people feel at seeing their fellows involved in trouble. Whether one or the other of these classes of thinkers, or neither, has the fact with them, we will not discuss. Certain it is that the advocates of popular government al ways rejoice whenever a monarchy en counters a serious revolt. Ihnthe case under consideration, there are peculiar reasons why the people of this country should wish well to the Cuban insur rection. Spain has notoriously governed Cuba about as badly as it could. Indeed, it is a perversion of terms to call Spanish rule in Spain a government. It has been, rather, organized robbery. But the United States, during the late rebellion within its own borders, set up some principles of international law, and claimed damages from Great Britain under them, which stand in the way of its action in behalf of the Cuban insurgents. Not prepared to relinqUish its claims upon England for the Alabama spoliations, and not being able to bring the controversy in relation thereto to a conclusion, it is constrained to remain passive. How long this will last it is not easy to per ceive. Recent advices indicate that it may be extendedso as to make the case of the Cuban rebels altogether hopeless. SAFETY IN LOAL !SINES. That mining is an employment which subjects all persons engaged therein to special hazards, is abundantly manifest, particularly to residents of mineral dis tricts. Science has disclosed various in strumentalities by which the dangers can be lessened, if not entirely avoided; but the cupidity of proprietors, or the selfish demand of the mass of coal consumers for cheap fuel, or both of these causes combined, has led to the avoidance of the additional expense which the use of these instrumentalities r.ecessarily entails. Just now there is a general clamor for the highest possible degree of safety in mines. But the cheerful concession of such in creased prices for coal as would enable the proprietors to meet the heavy costs of the security, we fail to discover. The fact seems to be assumed that these costs can be defrayed without seriously impair ing current profits, or, at least, without reducing profits below a fair proportion. We apprehend that the balance sheets of proprietors may conduce to a different conclusion. Thefact can neither be denied nor con cealed that the wages of labor almostuai formly bear a definite and just proportion' to the hazards entailed by different/em ployments. In point of fact, miners are now receiving, and have been for a number of / years past, high/rates of re• numeration—ngruly or quite double the average of skilled wortrien pursuing vo cations above groynd. Whether this higher average.o/f/compensation is actu ally sufficient/to cover the greater risks run, we need not here stop to consider. All we desire in this connection is to call attention to the obvious fact that if work lit mines shall be reduced, by the applica tion of approved scientific means, to the average chances of casualtiez which pre vall•in other labor, the wages of miners will not long remain above those of other toilers. In the very nature of the case, this must be so. Some powder-makers pay a certain rate of wages, stipulating to maintain the wives and children of such of the work men as may be disabled or killed by ex. plosions. In sten cesare reported in which the proprietors of-a•mill support twohun dred such persons. In these instances, the wageti are made enough less to liar rant the proprietors in taking the chances of damage likely to be inflicted on the workmen. It does not matter how many times this problem may be turned round, the final result will be the same; cotter proprietors must directly incur the reducing the risks incident to - the busi ness in which they are engaged, or the workmen must be indemnified' by aug mented wages. In either event, the con sumers of the product' will haye to pay higher rates for so much of it as they have respectively occasion for. If it shall turn out upon a careful scrutiny, that miners are not now paid larger wages than most other classes of workmen, it may be taken for granted that on the general introduction, either through the force of law or of public, opinion, or the demand of the miners' themseivesof new and costly means of additional security in the mines, the consumers of:coal will have to submit to a penruumnt average increase in price. Nor ought this to be objected to; and if objection &odd be idled, it would be of so avail. Whituver Wade to isoretuie tbe , cod of producing Aqi, tle/ljuring sir PITTSBURGH GAZETTE : SAIURDAY, SEPTEMBER 18, 1869 commodity is sure to augment the price that must be paid for it. We commented, 5 few days ago, upon the effort made last spring to' secure the enactment of a proper law for reducing the hazards of mining, and upon the causes of the failure of that effort. Le tts" add a few additional words. All the anthracite counties are "largely Demo• craft, as are also most of the .bituminous in which mining is prosecuted. on a lib eral scale. This has been so constantly since the beginning of the mineral devel opmenta. By comity among the mem bers of the two Houses of the General As sembly, legislation to meet local wants has always been left to the representatives of the districts specially interested. By far the greater part of the miners are Democrats. The mining counties are Democratic in consequence of their votes mainly. Why have the Democratic lead ers whom they have promoted year after year'to places of honor and influence sys tematically neglected their welfare in this important matter ? Nay, why have they opposed as often as an attempt has been made to secure a proper legal rem edy for the evils endured ? We do not like to present the cuss under this aspect, because it is one of very high gen eral concernment; but there seems to be no other way of doing fall justice in the premises. The danger now is that legislation may be precipitated under excitement and without duly calling up the material cir cumstances which ought to be taken into consideration. A well balanced stat ute is required; one that shall compel the proprietors, under stringent penalties, to adopt and effectively main tain all means of safety which have been found of real value, and which shall sharply punish miners who shall interfere, under any pretext whatever, with the constant and vigorous movements of this machinery, no matter what it may be. The bill that passed the House, and failed 'hi the Senate, last spring, is said to con tain suitable provisions. Possibly it em, bodies all that is needful; but upon mature reilection.we incline to the opinion that it stands in need of revision to adapt it to all the contingencies that are liable, to arise. If the men who may- be elected to the Legislature from the mining counties will give this subject their attention,- - tvill inspect personally as many of the mines as they well can,—and will consult . fully with both proprietors, engineers and miners, they will bring to the task of framing a proper law a good deal of defi nite and valuable knowledge. They will certainly understand the evils to be cured in all their ramifications, and be able to devise remedies that shall thoroughly meet the necessity. without damaging in terests that are of incalculable conse quenge to the State and the whole cuuntry. But the public may as well understand first as last that the mining corporations and individual proprietors, engaged in the ,traffic for the full peylod of thirty years past, have not gained much over aft average profit of ten / per cent. on their investments. Some companies and indi viduals who dipped in about 1862, have made more, but if they shall stay in for a considerable time longer, their average prgtitazwill be greatly reduced from the points at which' they now stand. The in ference from these facts is obvious. The ,adoption of all the means of safety in mines which have been suggested by the newspapers would at least double these' suggestions are known by all practical men, proprietors, engineers and miners, to have no merit in them, and to have proceeded from utter ignorance of the points of danger to be guarded against. That the next Legislature will enact a general law for the regulation of mining, is now certain. It is al together desirable that this law shall be molded under the influence of reason and knowledge nab& th tabs excitement and prejudice., When il take effect the profits of proprieters, the wages of miners, and the price consumers will have to pay for coal will be adjusted by those commercial laws, which, in the long run, prove superior to all combina tions to put up or put down rates. It will not be marvelous, if many persons who now clamor. loudly tor the introduc tion and maintenance of the most costly means of safety in mines, shall clamor, some little time hence, with equal energy against the increased price of coal which the employment of those very instrument atives may possibly render inevitable. Burrs for damages against the city of Bt. Louis are accumulating. Mrs. Ellen . Halpin° asks $5,000 damages for fatal in juries received by her son, a child, through the unlawful and negligent obstruction of the sidewalk by wagons, carts and horses. W. C.

A BOGUS insurance agent has been swindling farmers in Crawiord county.

Stowe has raised by her recent article on Lord Byron, in the At/antic, is probably alto gether without a precedent in b literary history; but like other storms of human origin there has been a great deal of mis placed bluster and unjust fury. That Mrs. Stowe's article w4s unnecessary arid . in bad taste we, think none will deny, and any writer isjustifled in saying so, or even in doubting the reliability of Mrs. Stowe's authority ; but many, not content with this have assailed her person al character, have accused her of pander ing to the depraved tastes of the age and of writing the article in order to gain a little cheap notoriety. To say this of Mrs. Stowe, is simply to proclaim one's self an ignoramus. The woman who has given her energies to the promotion of great reforms, and whose name has rung through the world in every lan guage louder and oftener than that of any other living woman, wears an armor from which such weapons will turn against their users. Much as we flay regret the publication of such an article from such a pen, we must believe that the intentions of the anth oress were good and her sincerity unimpeacitable. ---- Ig Loognto over the daily press of thi period one constantly encounters gems of humor or wit which would do credit to the reputation of a Hood or a Jerrold. The reason of this is that most news papers boil down a great deal of their matter into short paragraphs now, and, as everybody knows, brevity is the soul of wit. Every one of at least twenty papers gets off at least one good thing a month, at least one thing that, when we read it, causes us to be as suddenly and irresistibly tickled as if . we had just snuffed a charge of pepper up our most sensitive nostril. These paragraphs, the successful ones of Course, might be gleaned and harvested and by and by brought out in a book, which, though not altogether a fresh crop, would, we are sure, quite supercede the ancient Joe Milleriams and cut and dried puns which appear about once every 'ilve years in new editions. These gems, which are being hilt every day , are, maniof them, we feel sure, much better than those old ones were when they were new. 'DIU Philadelphia North Anteriean said, a few days ago, that the season for gunning accidents had not yet com menced. At present this can no longer be said. It seems as if every paper we glance at has some horrible account of the careless use of fire-arms and the fe ta; result thereof. Every I State, and every portion of every State, seems to be too readily furnishing a warning exam ple; but people will not remember. Enough poisons have been killed, by these means alone, in the United States during the past score of years, to people a new State, and enough more have been crippled or maimed by the same means to fill all the offices in the new State, af ter it was peopled. The frequency of these affairs has become actually terrific, 1 beca the more frequent they become the I care there seems to be exercibed in ha dling the shooting irons.

STUDENtS OF ETYMOLOGY will be pleased to learn that Mrs. Augusta J. Wilson nee Evans, has written another text book for their use. Although this novel is not yet out of the hands of the printers, and we have not yet seen it, we have no doubt it mill be quite as ad mirably suited to their purposes, and as thorough Greek to the rest of the public' as were Beulah, St. Elmo, Ma caria and Inez. Doubtless some of the characters often exhausting their powers of being brutal to each other, will sit down to gether in some beryl paved corridor, from which the stairs of jasper wind -to the rock crystal dome, and enjoy a quiet little dialogue in oolitic, Sanscrit or Arabic interrupted only by the rustle of the hair of the heroine upon the jewelled floor, while she stands in her bare feet upon the icy roof above, deeply immers ed in the verification of one of the astro logical problems of Zoroaster. STATE I' OLITIM THERE is to be a Democratic meeting in Waynesburg on the 21st inst. AsA PACEER is said to be the champion euchre player of Mauch Chunk. REPUBLICANISM has become the syno nym for economy and that of Democracy for. extravagance. No better evidence of this can be found than the record of the ',State on national finances. EIGHT more years of Republican rule ,at the same rate as the past eight will (completely wipe out the State debt left us by Democratic rulers. Everybody who wants it done will accordingly vote for Geary. EVERY Republican will appreciate the importance of the present campaign, in view of the fact that the election of Pershing would give the Democracy the control of the Supreme Court of the State, and enable them again, as last year, to deluge us with fraudulent natu ralization papers. GEN. R. C. Cox, of Liberty, is an rtn dependent candidate for Treasurer of Ti oga county. Gen. Cox was a candidate for nomination at the Republican nomi nating convention but failed to receive the sanction of that body. If a man is especially conceited, such a failure is almost sure to bring him out as an inde pendent candidate, and the election which follows almost invariably takes the con- ceit out of him altogether. IT is asserted on the authority of Wm. F. Smith, of Philadelphia, that Asa Packer, who has claimed residence in that city since 1864, has only paid one income tax in all that time, amounting to about $32 50—beside a tax of $8 90 on watches and silver plate, which would be $4l 40 in all. This statement is worth inquir ing into on the part of the revenue officials of Carbon and Philadelphia. If Mr. Packer has really shirked the payment of his nationalss well as State, borough and county taxes, by shifting his residence, i- i Is proper that the public should be off t cially informed of the fact. Tun Philadelphia Ledger speaks of Bill McMultin, leader of the copperhead roughs in that city, who threatens blond shed on election day if the registry law is enforced, as follows: .."It Alderman McMullin has been reek figs enough to utter such threats and there is anything but idle vaporing in his words, he will find on the side of the law and authorities thousands of men as brave and fearless as he can possibly be, although they are not in tiii habit of ,ex hibiting their courage in as reckless and questionable ways. His 'crowds' would be outnumbered a hundred to one. There has been a great deal too much of this sort of thing, and it is time that all those who feel like indulging in it should be made to feel that there is no decent man of any party who will give counte nance to it, and that there must be an end of.these discreditable and reprehensible ac- EDWARD HERNDON, a colored man, died on the 15th, in the vicinity of St. Louis, from the bite a mad dog received twelve days Previous. of THE Krentz murder, at Cincinnati, re- Mara involved in mystery, the Coro- ner's jury finding that death resulted from a pistol fired by some unknown per son.

The eldest bet on Wild Rose, the terms being that if she won the youngest sister was to remain single for the term of five mor tal years; bet that if she lost she must marry, within four weeks, a young man of her acquaintance: Wild Rose lost; the eldest sister is therefore held to the terms of her contract, and, being of true grit, declares that she will stick to her agreement. Ax ATTEMPT WWI made to murder Mr. N. D. Clutter, of,Rich Hill township, Greene county, on the night ot the 10th.

LIFE- 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 tbotten human life, none are more prevalent than those which affect the lungs and pulmonary tissues. V'llLtherwe regard lung diseases in the light of a merely slight 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 disaster. In no class of maladies should the hysician 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 efficient treat ment is most desirable, and it is then that danger can be warded off and a cure effected.
