A few weekt since our community was sur prised to lenrn that coal hud advanced about two dollari per ton. Ctf courie, this sudden advance on an article of necessity, to more than war prices, in time of peace, was based oa no legitimate law of trade, but was the work of rascally speculators. This sudden and extravagant advance .finds no favor with Intelligent operaters In the Bhamokin or Schuylkill regions. Some may, tempora rily, profit by it, but in the end they aro the sufferers. Miners and railway officials take advantage of it, in raising wages and tolls. The primary cause of this advance was caused by the Scrantoc coal speculators in New York. The advance did not hold out long in New York, and we learn, that in Schuylkill Haven, the prices of some kinds of coal have already declined one dollar and fifty cents per ton. The Pottsville Minert' Journal, speaking of the sudden rise, which it terms "The Rascality of SpeculatiorV'says : "The New York Tribcxe, a few clays since, in speaking of the great pressure iu the money market, said : "The present depression is caused by a "Democratic ring, who have locked up "twelve to fifteen millions to break all "values, and assisted by secret sales by the "Treasury, thoy have been able to give an ap pearance of a want of conGdetire to our "securities that is entirely artificial aud "false." One of the objects was to create the im pression that the election of Grant would result in depressing instead of benefitting the business of the country but in that re spect thoy will fail, although these gamblers will put millions into their own pockets by buying up these very securities at the reduc ed rates, caused by these manipulations. The high prices of coal were caused by two or three speculators, who had a largo quantity of coal to receive from the Scranton Company, who ran up the prices regardless of the interests of producers and consumers. and probably pocketed not less than $50,000 by the operation. The high prices obtained by the Company at the last sale remunera ted tuem lor the loss sustained in furnish. ing the quantity still due purchasers, at the luvrer rules. PEWNS'SXVAtllA-OI'S'ICIAIj. Urnnt's Majority, ftt,908. A cd. Gen. : I'rkbidbt. OOUNTCE8. A Recistry Law. Our Legislature is Republican, and if it does its duty as an honest and faithful body, much of the pri vate legislation which occupied the time of former legislatures will be discountenanced. What is done should be 'solely with a view to the best interests of the people, not of the Republican party or of the Democratic party, but of the people. Such a measure is a Registry Law. The experience of the last election serves to strengthen the conviction of honest merfos to its necessity. Frauds doubtless have always been perpetrated at elections, and always will be so long as men are found dishonest enough to seo no end in them beyond the success of their candi dates. But every measure which makes it nearer impossible to cast fraudulent voteB should be adopted by our Legislature, if il does not encumber or prevent the free exer cise of the elective franchise by those who have the right to exercise it. Of course every attempt to effect this will he resisted by the Democratic party, a large per ccntage of whose voters belong to that class which can readily bo used by it in any attempt to override the wishes of the lawful voters. ITouest elections are alwavs Tiiirtful to the Democracy. Stringent election laws, how ever fair and impartial, are invariably resist ed by Democratic journals. Now is the time to prevent a repetition of the disgraceful experiences of the last election, and they are so fresh in the memo, ry of every member that he "taint see the necessity of doing something. Caro should be taken to make the provisions of the law as simple, yet as stringent as possiblo. In addition to this, Congress should do something toward stopping the leaks in our naturalization laws. As they now stand, in our principal cities where foreigners most decongregate.it would be little worse if there were no restraints upon the voting at all. So long as we jealously withhold the right of suffrage from a large clsss of native lorn citizens, might we not do vi isely to protect it from foreigners who cannot posai- uiy uuaersiana asyiuing about tlie genius and spirit of our institutions ? Let the low be framed that none can vote until he is na turalized, and none can be naturalized until legally entitled so to be.

FOU GRANT AND COLFAX. General Grast will go into the Presi dential office less trammeled by promises to politicians, than any man that ever sworo to perform the duties of President with fi delity. Even Washington had about him when he entered on the discharge of civil auty, wnat was regarded as a cliqiia of favorites, however little the Father of his country practiced partiality. But Grant is not suspected of having such favorites. lie lias no confidants among politicians he has no interest in common with olEce huuters, and may be justly regarded as the most independent President elect ever honored with such a glory. We hsve every reason to believe that the great soldier will not deviate from his course of independent action. As a warrior, he obeyed certain fixed principles in the science of war, and then gave himself np to persistent labor to carry out his plans, whereby he woa the grandest victories of the age. If, as Presi aent, urant oheys equally great principles oi rigut and justice, and ignores the profei nmai political truksltri which constantly swarm in Washingten, his victory in the u,le 'm will be as great and glerious, for all the real interests of the people, as luuse ue won on toe battlefield. m 1BC ueedmen's Ucreac reports that the expenditures in South Carolina during the past year were $195,600, besidss $280, 000 used in buying subsistence to planters with a lien on their crops.

Following it the official report from Coin modore Bands, Superintendent of the Naval Observatory, in regard to the recent meteoric shower, received at the Navy Department last Saturday U. S. Natal Obbbryatort, Washington, Nov. 14, 1868. Sir: I have the honor to submit the following preliminary report of the meteoric shower of this morning. Dur ing the evening of the 13th iust., there were no greater number of meteors to be seen than are usually observed on clear n'gbla until about eleven o'clock, when there seemed to be an increase in numbers and brilliancy, though not sufficient to indicate the begin ning of a shower. At midnight (he number had considerably increased, and the preva lence of trains was generally noted. At thirty-five minutes past midnight Pro fessor Dustman, aud Messrs. Harrison, Fris'oy and Hays, began to count meteors and to plot the tracks of the principal ones that appeared in that portion of the heavens covered by the star chart constructed at the Observatory in 1807. At one hour and thirty-Ova minutes A. li., 800 meteors had been counted, most quite brilliant, and nearly all of them leaving green, blue or red trains. Thus far the display had not been confined to any portion of the sky, but most of them were in the northern and southern heavens. and scarcely any in opposition to the place in the star chart. Many of the trains were visible several minutes. One lasted ten minutes, and the track of one near Ursa Minor was scan thirty minutes after the ap peurance of the meteor. After one hour and fifty minutes Professor Eastman, assisted by Jlr. Ilamaon, devoted his time to mapping and noting the time of apparition of the principal meteors, and suc ceeded in sketching tracks of about 00. During one hour and forty minutes 400 had been counted, and afterwards the successive hundreds were observed in the following intervals. (The intervals are here given by Commodore Sands.) Tho observations were continued until after six o'clock in the morn ing, at which time there had besu counted five thousand and seventy-eight. At two hours and twenty minutes a. m Professor Mores and son joined the party of observation, and assisted in counting me teors iu the western heavens. During the whole display there were many meteors seen in the west, but from four o'clock till five the numbers were about equal in the caBt and west. The time of maximum frequency was about five hours, when they fell at the rate of about two thousand per hour. The radiant point was quite well defined during the latter end of the shower, aud found by estimation to be about one hundred and forty-nine degroes in right ascension and twenty-two minutes thirty seconds in de clination. The trains Tfere unusually brilliant, pre senting the various green, blue, orange aud red, &.c, remained visible for an unusual tiuie, frequently as many as five could be seen at once presenting an appearance when nearly dissipated of light cirrus clouds. The shower commenced several hours before it was expected, as it was predicted Inst year it would bo seen in 1SG8 in the Pacific ocean only. A number of star charts were dis tributed a few days ago to the various Ob servatories and Pacific men of the country, and it is likely many valuable observations have been made, of . which we shall toon learn. Very respectfully, your obd't servant, B. F. Sards, Superintendent. A dispatch from San Francisco says, there was an extraordinary meteoric shower last night, commencing about 10:30 r. m., and lasting tit! an early hour this morning. The display at 2 r. u. rivalled in splendor that of Novembar 14, 1867. Several meteors left trails of light distin guishable for many seconds. Their general direction appeared to bo from cast to west. Dispatches from Hartford, Poughkeepsie, Fortress Monroe and Richmond mention brilliant meteoric displays during Friday uigut. The number of meteors seen at New York, Monday night, exceeds two thousand fire hundred by actual count. ing at the Are. One of them, thinking the thing was a dog, kicked at it, but the thing would not be driven off that way, and walked into the bouse, the ladies making room for it when they lound it weuld not be kicked away. A man suddenly dashed by the ladies and into the house, where ha found the thing ho was in search of a Brazilian tiger in the kitchen, amusing itself with a cat. Whether his tigershlp was playing arennd the cat until it recovered its breath after its excitement, aud then intended to devour it, does not tratspire, for the man suddenly threw a carpet over the animal and bore it off iu triumph. The lady who kicked at the tiger of course faiuted at the brave act she so thoughtlessly committed. The cago ef monkeys was the most ludi crous thing to behold, as the creatures gib bered away and performed nil manner of antics. Parrots spoke out in tones that would have done credit to a basso singer, and the feathered tribe that could not speak were moving about their cages liko bats in a lighted room. Mr. Forepaugli thinks some of the smaller auimals, such as rabbits and Guinea pigs, were burned, but the largest animal missing is a monkey, it is said tuat a lellow was seen going down Ridge avenue with a mon key under his ceat, but whether that was the missing monkey or one he runs to fires with has not transpired. Mr. Foropftugb estimates his loss nt $47, 000, upon which there is no insurance. The election In CJforyJn. Atlanta, Oa., Nov. 14. The official re turns from all the State but nine counties make Seymour's majority 45,500. The coun ties to bo heard from will increase his major lty about 1,000. The Republican majority for Gov. Bollock in April was 7,000. The counties which in that election gave from 600 to 1,200 votes for Bullock, gave only one vote each for Grant. In six counties, which then cast 1,800 Republican votes, tuero was not one single vote for Grant. No More MunnTsruN fou inn Pjiebmt. The St. Louis Democrat says the Arkansas Ku-Klux had a meeting on Thursday, and determined to have no more meetings until they could confer with the grand council at New Orleans, and get a new name and new signs. Their assassination schemes having been discovered by the State authorities, Friday they sent runners to all parts of the State for the Ku Klux to assussiuattfno more till further orders from Ku-Klux headquar ters.

Just think how it muBt have been, when it is shown, by the official returns that Grant received 1 vote and Seymour 1735 in a Par. ish where 472 whites and 1098 blacks were registered last year. In Caddo, where the registry stood 2087 blacks to 776 whiles, Grant gets 1 vote and Seymour 2805. St. Mary, Last Baton Rouge, Last Feliciana, and other Parishes show similar figures. But St. Landry, the sceno of the late rebel mas sacre, govs the whole hog, casting 4800 votes for Seymour and none for Graut, though 8102 blacks were registered io that Parish last year. This is liberty and free dom of elections as guaranteed by Mr. John sen through hit beloved follower Rousseau.

There is so much discussion of the law creating the grade of General of the Armies, under which General Grant was appointed, that it has been deemed necessary to publish the act iu question. It is, in full, as follow; "The President is hereby auiborised, whenever he shall deem it expedient, to appoint, by and with the advice of the Senate, a General of the army of the United Btatus, selected from among these officers in the military armies most distinguished for courage, skill sad ability, who, being commissioned as Gener al may be authorized, under the direction and pleasure of the President, to command the armlet of the United 6.tatet." nisi: i. iani.Ati:i.iiiiA. Philadelphia, Nov. 1C. About half past six o'clock Saturday evening flames were discovered issuing from a large double threo story building, near the junction of Ridge avenue and Jefferson atreet, occupied by Messrs. Kencoe, Clarke & Co., as a saw and planing mill and sash factory. The flumes pread witn great rapidity, owing to the Urge quantity of combustible material, and in a short lime they attained such headway as seemed to bailie the efforts cf the firemen to check them. The fire then communicated to a long row of shedding in the rear of the building, which was soon destroyed. In this was stored a large quantity of lumber. The firm estimate their loss upcu the buildiug at about $5,000, upon which thero is an insur ance of $1,600 in the Rbyal Insurance Coia pnny. Th loss upon machinery is estimated at $7,000, and on stock about $5,000. Adjoining on tja north was a large struc ture oi frame aud brick, which was owned and occupied by Adam Forepaugli for win tering the animals composing bis menagerie, and which had bsju taken possession of but a few ciays before tor that purpose. Messengers were promptly cispatclicd to the men employed about the menagerie, and fortunately haatcsed to the scene. The fuars that the building would take fire were rea l.zod, aa the flames spread from the shedding attached to the saw mill. The quick vibrations of the pistons of the steam lire engines, the exhaust steam, the shriek of their whistles, the springing of hoseenrriage bells, and the geueial tumult incident to a fire, were enough to frighten the beasts. When, however, scores of men dashed in upon them, clsd in all sorts of equipments, the animals for awhile must have thought an exhibition was being gotten up for their edification. The flames spread rapidly, aad the cry want up to save the animals, and the firemen pitched in regardless of consequences. The animals, wheu the flames came in such prox imity, were frantic, the additional excite ment, added to the noises, becoming unbear able. The dens seized by the firemen, and they moved away with them as though they were solid structures. The consequence was that some of the bars became displaced, and uie animais, seeing a cbance lor escape, lest no time in availing themselves of it. The dens were rudely but securely built for the purpose of holding the animals, but it was not expected that a speedy removal of them would be necessitated. In removing tbe den containing the lion from tho struc ture on which it was placed, it received a severe jar, and the result was it commenced to fall to pieces. A large number of men, however, surrounded it and held it together until it was landed in the street, when a ctge wss brought up and placed over it, thus safely securing the lioa, which had not ob tained itt freedom, thaokt to tbe bravery of tbe men who held the den together. A Bengal tiger effected itt escape by the breaking of a plank in the den during in removal and started off up Ridge avenue, followed by boy. The animal jumped over a fence and went into the dinning room of the residence of a physiean. It then pass ed through tbe kitcheo and into the yard, and so to the stable, where it wat captured by teme of the meatgeri folks and safely secured. t At Twenty-third and Jefferson streets something walked up te the slept of a reti. dene wbthre ladies were Harding look.

November 21, ltJ68. y Ayer'a Hair "Vigor, For restoring Gray Hair to Its natural Vitality and Color. A dressing which it at once agreeable! healthy, and effectual for preserving the hair. Faded or gray hair is toon rssiorea to il$ original color with tht glott and fruhntn of youth. Thin hair is thick ened, falling hair checked, and bald ness often, though not always, cured by its use. Nothing can restore the hair where the follicles are destroyed, or the glands atrophied and decayed. But such as remain can be saved for usefulness by this application. Instead of fouling the hair with a pasty sedi ment, it will keep it clean and vigorous. Its occasional use will prevent the hair from turning gray or falling off, and consequently prevent baldness. Free from those deleterious substances which make some preparations dangerous and injurious to the hair, the Vigor can only benefit but not harm it. If wanted merely for a HAIR DRESSING, nothing else can be found so desirable. Containing neither oil nor dye, it does not soil white cambric, and yet lasts long on the hair, giving it a rich glossy lustre and a grateful perfume. Prepared by Dr. J. C. Ayer & Co., PaACTICAL AMD AjiiXTTICAL CHtMISTS, LOWELL, MASS. FBICB tl.OO, Sold by II. T. Friling, Sunbury.and all Druggists and dealers In Medicine everywhere. November 7, 1888. ly.
