Henry Clay on I lie Turin of 11.
Among thefieo urticles were two that Mr.
Clay seemed particularly anxious to tax, but
Tailed, though supported by large number of his
Whig friends ; these were tea and coffee, articles
used as necessaries of life, and coming in com
petition with none produced in this country. On
this subject I will let him speak for himselfr
September, 184 1, he said,
"He should vote for the tux on tea and coffee.
Tt Was necessary under 'his calculations, and as
he found he wni 'to lie deserted by it portion of
his friends, (tariff men,) he trusted that some of
Mhnse opposed to him, (tree trade men of the
South,) would vote for th's tax. If they did not,
"the result would inevitably be that at the next
;ev!ion the 'tax would be certainly imposed, or a
higher duty than is authorised by the compromise
'-act levied on other articles.
"He thought tea and coffee the most desira
ble tilings fen which to raise revenue.'1
On the motion of Mr. Woodbury, to insert in
the list ofree articles tea and coffee, Mr. 'Clay
and other whigs, September 4, t S 1 1 , voted no.
Coal Mine on Fire.
The mine of Mr. Geo. II. Potts, at PottsviHe,
look fire about Ten days since, and on examina
'tion, it was found that as many as one hundred
tons of coal were on fire.
The plan adopted was to quench the fire with
water, and then haul up in wagons the reftise mat
ter. Gang after gang of the miners Were sent
down, and after working five or six minutes
were brought up completely lifeless. The pro
prietor, however, persevered, and by rubbing
ahll'res'uscftnliiigt'rie exhausted men as soon as
brought to the surface, he succeeded in conquer
ing the element, after thirty-six hours of hard
and perilous labor. The fire was rompletely ex
tinguished, and about one hundred tonsofchnrred
coal and ashes taken from the spot.
'We give this occurrence as a caution to all o
thers engaged in "the business. Many of our
operators are now working the veins below the
water level, and a great deal of inflammable ens
is inevitably produced. The same accident may
occur in any mine, and may be followed by much
more disastrous consequences. Miners in work
ing will sometimes strike their picks into a cre
vice from which will gush a complete stream of
gas. It sometimes happens that these "leaders''
s they are termed, will continue to emit intlum
muble mutter for day. Such Was the case in
'the instance we have described. After the first
explosion the leader in one of the brea-ts con
tinued to burn, and hail it remained undiscover
ed a few (lays longer, one of the most valuable
coll ieries in the district would have been com
pletely destroyed. As it is.no serious damage
'has occurred, and the vein is now worked as
usual.
The Kknti ckv Pkison on Finn ! Great F.x
cmkmknt! A letter to the New York Tribune,
dated Frankfort, August .'(1, gives the particu
lars ofthe bursting out f dames in the Kentucky
prison on the previous night, about Iff o'clock.
There were in the prison more than one hundred
and sixty convicts. The flames spread so rapidly
through the workshops That there seemed but
one way to save the lives of the prisoners, and
that to open the cells and allow all to leave the
prison walls. The young men of the city ral.
lied at once, repaired to the arsenal, broke it open
w ithout ereinniiy, took out tour or five hundred
stand of arms, organized, and put themselves un
der the command of the (I'ovcrnnr. The implo
ring cries of the prisoners for relief rew more
and more earnest. Every building within the
walls was in flames except the building contain
ing the cells and the provision house. The re-M-rvoir
which supplies the city with water had
been partially cleared out on Friday, and the
water was not let on until the alarm Was given,
and the flames were permitted to move on un
checked. The Governor arranged his men, en
tered the prison and addressed the convicts, lie
told them if they attempted to escape every man
wonld fee shot. They fell upon their knees and
begged but to be delivered from the horrid death
that threatened them arid they would submit to
anything, Justasthe Governor Mk as a"botrt to open
the doors of the prison to the convicts, a supply of
water was obtained, and the engines began to
play upon the building containing the cells. The
Governor thtm left, assuring the prisoners that
they should be rescued if the building could not
be preserved. Fortunately for all, they were
successful in preserving the buildings above na
ined, and in keeping the prisoners within their
cells. Nothing saved ofthe machinery or materi
als of the workshops.
Tirt Choir ok Onn Fku.ows in Kni.l.vnti.
Some curious statistic details, illustrative of the
present state of this extensive fraternity, were
laid before the Grand Metropolitan Lodge, at its
late anniversary meeting. It appears that on the
1st of April last, when the returns were made
tip, that there were in Kngland and Wales .'i.'i 10
lodges and 325, 000 members, showing an in
crease of l.'3 lodges and S2,Ofio members over the
previous year's return. The subscriptions for
this year amounted to 3o2,oS:j ; the expendi
tures to 300,001-; leaving a balance ttfo2,.1S:l
in favor of the Association. The total amount
of property belonging to the Order, (including pic
tures, flags, banners, lodge paraphernalia, official
Apparel, and various insignia) was estimated at
700,000. Amongst the enrolled members are
130 members of Parliament, 6a9 ministers Of re
ligion of various denominations, and 0,000 hdna
rary members who mnke no claim upon the funds.
If each member were to contribute only one half
penny each, it Would amount to31,l,'tia year
