The present situation is being discussed on account of the reasons suggested above, and is noticed as follows by an "anthority liberally informed: “The currency condition prevailing in different portions of the country, are of particular importance at the present time, as indicating the avail- able supply to meet the demand for the crop movement and the fall trade. The banks show no disposition to pay out gold in public revenues, so long as silver notes are piling up at the money centres. According to financial author- ities, the abundance of paper money is keeping gold away from the treasury and facilitating its exports to Europe. The call for money, generally makes | itself manifest during the last week in July, but it is a little late this year. - During the latter half of August, the demand is always large, but it is not until September or October that it . reaches its highest point. ~ “According to the Journal of Com- merce, there is an ample supply of ‘currency at the present time. The reports now being made to the Com- troller of the Currency by the National banks are more than ordinarily well’ prepared to meet the requirements, and are making additional prepara-. tions. The National bank note circu- lation, recently taken out and based on the new five per cent. bonds, is an in- dication of this. As a rule, the notes so issued have doubtless been simply piled up in the vaults in anticipation of the fall demands. Like the large amount of the outstanding currency certificates, they have not been added to the actimt money supply, but are held ready for use as soon as currency demands develop. . “The most favorable indication yet given of a turn in the tide of silver paper that has poured in on the Treas- ary to the exelusion of all other forms of money, is the fact that within the past ten days the proportion of silver. certificates used in payments of cus- toms at this port has considerably de- creased. Their place has been sup- plied by the so-called Treasury or Sherman notes, which are more de- __ sirable, but the change has indicated ‘that the Treasury has succeeded in ab- sorbing the silver certificates of large denomination, and that the actual or prospective demand for the smaller notes serves to withhold them from the revenues. The percentage of the - Sherman notes will also gradually de- cline as currency demands increase and | the improvement in the character of Fags. the Treasury receipts will be more marked.” : “BLACKLEGS" : In speaking of blacklegs the Altoona Tribune says the following, which very plainly hits the nail on the head and ives some plain “and pied facts. » ‘ which the COURIER highly indorses: Two or three gentlemen inquired yesterday whether the editorial depart- ment of the Tribune -éndorsed the paper's Houtzdale correspondent’s application of the epithet “blackleg”’ '* to the non-union miners of the bitum- ‘inous region. Our answer is that it does not: further, he has very little knowledge of the amount of labor in- volved in the production of a daily paper the size of the Tribune who imagines that the persons who writes the editorials has also time to. examine every word, or even every article that appears in the paper. By the time he has prepared the seven or eight col- umns that go to make up the inside: pages of each. issue his day's work of from twelve ta fourteen hours is at an end. The telegraphic editor, the city. editor, all the other alert nen and women who make a newspaper, must have a change. Besides, correspond- ents are usually responsible for their choice of language. CL We have a very poor opinion of. any man who will enter the labor market and underhjd other workmen. But if some men who are in receipt of fair wages resolve to quit work and do so sometimes out of sympathy for othérs and not because of any grievance of their own, then the industrious man who is anxious to earn a living for his family is justified in stepping into the ‘vacant place. He did nothing to make that vacancy; he is exercising an un- - doubted right when he steps in and fills it. Is there any Sontifieation for the - coarseness which applies the opprob- rious epithet *‘blackleg’ to honest and industrious workmen, simply because they decline to affiliate with a labor anion? We think not. The citizen who joine with others of the same way of thinking to organize a union is with- in his right. Nobody has any business to proscribe him for so doing. But he who holds aloof from the union and who proposes to make his own bar- gains with empicyers and to retain the ownership of his own time and free- dom, is also within his right. The industrious citizen who provides for his family is not a “blackleg.’” The man who so describes him is ignorant, thoughtless or malicions. It will be ‘well to avoid the use of such an ex. pression. COAL PRODI CTION. Figures compiled at Harrisburg shows that Westmoreland county still leads in the production of bituminous coal, 7,583,348 tons having been pro- duced in that county during 1568. Al- legheny comes next with a production of 6,894,610 tons. The production of Clearfield and Fayette counties was nearly the same, the former producing 6,081,324 tons, while Fayette produced 9,106,%5. Washington produced 3,414,- 424 tons; Cambria, 3,337,359; Jefferson 3,072,208; Centre, 1,350,351. The lead- coke producing counties are Fayette and Westmoaeland, the production of the former being 2,011,054 tons last year, or a decrease of 1,257,771 tons, over the production of 1892. The pro- duction of Westmoreland county wae 1,700,889, a decrease of 925565 tonsa The number of men employed in the bituminous field in 1993 was 81,800, and the previous year, 78,759, A Correction. Patton, Pa, Aug. 7 1864. MR. Jas. CARNEY, Sir: —On. Thursday, August 2d you refused to give me any aid as “boss” of the relief com- mittee. You then tried to give the reasons why, “I was not entitled to aid.” The next day Jas. Mellon called on you and after a long consultation, he, Jas, Mellon told me the reason you give, It was that I was not a miner and ‘was not entitled to any aid. I tell you through the public press oa are ‘wrong. The only ard true reason was political spite. I call upon you to ‘ prove whether I am right or not in this statement, to be published in the Cov: RIER or the Pennsylvania Grit. Jas. MURRAY. Got “ Easy. The Caoalport Standard says that several sports of Patton came to Flin- id last Wednesday for the purpose of fishing. After seeing the deep hole at Flynn's dam they proceeded to Beaver dams and bought the water for the pur- ‘pose of fishing for a consideration of $2.00. The next morning Albert Me- Kee went before Squire Beers and made information against all parties con- cerned in the act for violating the fish laws of Pennsylvania. The Coalport Rod and Gun club intend seeing the offenders of this law punished. - A hearing was held before Squire Beers on Monday evening, where one of the parties was fined $50 Local Market Report.

The Brockwayville Record says that a distressing a cident occurred at Cren- “shaw on Wednesday which, cansider- ing the render yeas of the victim, sent a thrill of horror through the communi- ty. The victim was the 22-month-old daughter of John Smerick, who lives near the tram road leading to drift No. 13. Atrip of loaded mine cars was coming down the track attached to the engine. The little one was playing near the track, and stepped aside as the trip drew near, but when too late to stop she attempted to cross the track and was run down by the mine cark. One leg and ane arm wis frightfully mangled and crushed. Dr. Quinn reached the scene as quickly as possible, and found that an amputa- tation Was Necessary He called Dr. Davenport to Wiis assistance and the leg was taken off below the knee. The arm was not amputated at that’ opera- tion, as it was feared that the shock would prove too great for the little one. Tt may be necessary to take it off later on, My hoy was taken with a disease resembling Bloody flux. The first thing I thought of was Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhea Remedy. Two doses of it settled the matter and cured him sound and well I. heartilv recommend this remedy to all per- SONS suffering from a like complaint. I will ahswer any inquiries regarding it when stamp is inclosed. I refer to any county official as to my reliability. Wm. Roach, J. P., Primroy, Campbell Co., Tenn.
