Lines composed 011 the death of little Annie Ulricn, who died in the woods, near Upper Lehigh, three years ago : Darling Annie we have lost thee, Why didst thou go astray ; We have listened for thy foot steps, But our watch was all in vain. In the nights these words 1 uttered— "o ! My child where canst thou be? Do 1 hear thy voice calling Dear mam, do come to me?" Dear mother wipe your tears Anil for me don't weep no more; For me came a shining Angel And bore me to the other shore, Where there is no hour of parting, All in joyful peace and love, Where are thousands of such children Singing 'round the throne above- On that dark night, yes, I wandered, Where 110 one could hear my cry; But that Angel did me comfort, And these words he did reply— "Fear not, my little pilgrim, Tho' be lost on mountain high, Thou art found among the jewels In the home beyond the sky." When on earth I was a stranger; Here is my native land, With ten thousand white robed Angels 'Round the throne of Christ I stand, Singing everlasting anthems, Golden harps within their hands, Crown of glory upon their foreheads; O! What sweet and happy land. 0 ! That night my dearest mother, As upon the rocks I laid, Almost perished, wet and hungered, Little Annie was afraid. In the morning when I awakened 1 turned my eyes up to the sky, They fall upon the rooky pillars, Little Annie now must die. HENRY J. EDWARDS. Upper Lehigh, May 30, '9O.

They recommended that the service of a competent surveyor be procured to give j proper lines and grades, and that the j stones be set in the places designated by j him.

The anthracite companies' general j ; sales agents met at New York on Tues- j 1 day, May 27, and agreed to make an ad ; vance of 25 cents per ton in the price of j ' stove and chestnut coal and 15 cents for I ; egg size, which took effect last Monday. This advance in the circular prices re-1 suited in a number of tardy dealers plac- \ i ing orders for coal at old prices, fearing I they might have to pay the full advance I if they made further delay. Otherwise there is nothing new in the cpndition of I 1 the anthracite coal trade to note this week. ! I There is not much activity, excepting in the movement of coal from the mines to tidewater and from thence to the distri -1 buting ports in the East and West. 1% has also been agreed by the producing j interests to mine only 2,750,000 tons of j j anthracite this month, and the rcpresen- : tatives of the several companies have re ! newed their promises to not overship their respective quotas of the allotted 1 tonnage. The observance of Decoration Day throughout the anthracite fields cur i tailed the output of coal last week. | The Engineering and Mining Journal, in , its weekly review of the situation of the ! anthracite trade at New York, says : "A i feeling of stability and confidence reigns i over all. The broken week has made ' things a little dull, the lost day having i reduced the amount of shipping some what. It, is probable that the increased | rates will have their effect in slackening | transactions for a little while, and the , bulk of the deliveries for the first week or two in June will undoubtedly be atr I the old rates, though in the general mar-1 ; ket the new rates will prevail. Several j i large operators professed themselves un- j | able to understand the rise in rates aimul-1 ! taneously with the increased output. It | , is explained by the increase in antici pated shipments and by the fact that I j several of the large companies havecon ! siderably reduced their stocks towards | the end of the month, as was anticipated in this report. During the week ending May 24 the production fell off fully 100,- 000 tons, and it has fallen off still more • this week, which adjusts the apparent , discrepancy between the production up . to the I7th or 18th instant and the esti ., mated production for the month. The t ; increase of 250,000 tons in June over May j may appear large, but when it is remem > bered that the outpout for June last year j ' | was 3,330,000 tons it will be seen that j there is nothing to be alarmed about. | There will be a still further increase in j . ; July. Owing to the demand for ships to r | bring ice from Maine, which is likely to i j continue all summer, coal shipping is 1 slow, though the rates have not stiffened 1 appreciably. Captains frequently refuse [ to wait for coal freights w hen they can i get nearly 50 per cent, more for a short j ton for carrying ice. Besides this, freights have advanced and continue ad- j ; vane ing, which is expected to have such i an effect on coal shippers that they will j try and accumulate shipping stocks, so i that they can avail themselves of empty ships without keeping them waiting and letting them slip away. The prices of anthracite for June will he demanded by the big companies as follows: Stove $3.75, chestnut and egg $3.50, broken $3.35." The total amount of anthracite coal sent to market for the week ending May 24th, as reported by the several ; carrying companies, was 637,513 tons, t compared with 739,225 tons in the corres , ponding week last year, a decrease of , K1,712 tons. The total amount of an thracite mined thus far in the year 1890 , was 11,236,1 10 tons com pared with 11,577-, , 138 tons for the same period last year, a | decrease of 341,028 tons. — Ledger. 1 The Contest to Close.
