Journal's

purposo. The orator says tli^t something more than a year ago he was working for his old owners, Democrats, at $90 per month, lie was growing rich and happy, and his wife and children were happy. "While everything was thus lovely in tho house of BTOKES, ho says:

The President of tho road, who paid me ninety dollars a month, came to me, and said, "Clay, you are forsaking your poople and helping those carpet-baggers Btutf their pockets and ruin mo witli taxation. If you go and vote with these peoplp, you must leavo this shop." 1 id go an an he next day I was walked out of the shop.

The same merciless proscription was practiced by the Democracy throughout the South, but no one ever dreamed that Northern Democrats would try to make a point by publishing accounts of tho heartless cruelties perpetrated against the colored votors of the South by tho Democracy of that section. The

General ROSKCRADS, declination of the gubernatorial nomination of the Ohio Democracy leaves the party in a very awkward position and Insures its defeat by a much greater .nisjority than would have been given against it under tho leadership of "Old

That the

Two Republics,

The

a paper published at the

City of Mexico: "General Bosocratis will, Villi his family, leave the Capital, for San Francisco California, in which State he will make his futuro residence. The General will go with the best wishes, of a large circle of warm friends, for his future prosperity."

thinks that St.

Louis will soon become the seal of a new industry. It is asserted by intelligent miners that the silver ores of Colorado can be shipped to that city and smelted at & saving

thirty dollars per ton as soon as

the Kansss Pacific Railroad is completed to Denver. In anticipation of this new business, smelting furnaces are about to be erected in sufficient numbers to meet th« anticipated defti&nd. Along with the rich ores of the West will flow also all the incident# of a rich trade.

Aa Inmense Bed of Bitamiiooi

i:"'

Equal to Pittsburg Ti'-I

gait Water Equal to that of U«e Kanahwa Valley

From the lud.anapolis Journal.] Professor E. T. Cox, State Geologist, returned on Saturday evening from his trip to Fountain and Warren counties, wher he spent the week, following up hissurvey of the coal fields. During this time he traced the bed of block coal which we spoke of upon hia former return, as commencing jn Owen and running in a west of north direction, through Clay, Vigo and Parke. It continues of about tho same width—six miles fiT-d

lwm

three to four feet thick to

a point in Fountain county about six miles south of Attica. At this point, the sandstone underlying the bed comes up •and cutsitout. Tho same bed appears about seven mile3 northwest of Attica, in Warren county, but is limited to a small extent of country and is not so thick as the main bed. It thus appears that this bed of block coal the value of which can scarcely over-estimated, instead of be ing confined to a small section of Clay county, where it was first discovered, extends in one solid mass six miles wide and three or four feet thick, a distance of nuaflv one hundred mile3 in length. It may be still longer, as it has not been fully surveyed and defined further south tban the northers line of Greene county, but that which we are already sure of contains within itself a mine of wealth and industry which will raise Indiana to a most enviable position in this country, and not many years will elapse until this entwe section will b« blazing with furnaces and rolling mills.

In addition to defending the northern limits of this bed of block coal, Professor Cox traced a most valuble body of coal extending along Coal Creek, in Fountain county. It is found in three seams, the upper one being from eighteen inches to two feet in thickness, the middle one from four and a half to five feet, and the lower one from six to seven feet the aggregate drpth of the three veins rstoging from twelve to fourteen feet. In character it is of a semirblock formation, but partak ing largely of the caking or bituminous quality. It is the opinion of Professor Coi that this coal may boused the samo as the block coal, for smelting iron without coking, although he has not fully test edits quality in this respect. As a healing coal it 16of particular value, being free from sulphur and fully equal in every respect to what is known here aa the I'ittsburg coal. Professor Cox intended his visit to Danville, Illinois, and compared it with the coal in that vicinity, He, found the Coal Creek coal far superior to it and this he finds to be the goneral case that the quality of tho coals in those measures is always bettor on tho eastern border and that the excellence diminishes as it extends westward. A tost was recently applied at a largo mili in Lafayette, showing the comparative value and heating quality of the two kinds of coal, which was certainly convincing. The coals tried wore tho best quantity of Danville coal, and somo of tho Silver Island coal taken from the middle seam in Fountain county. As the resultof it, 4,210 pounds of the Silver Island coal kept the pressure of steam up to sixty pound* and run the machinery seven hours and forty-five minutes while 4,200 pounds of the Danville coal kept the pressure up to sixty pounds only a portion of the time, and run the machinery only five hours and twentyfive minuter.' The advantage to the SiK ver Island coal, as showed by this trial is 42.8 por cent. or, seventy pounds of the Silver Island coal is equal to one hundred pounds of the Danville.

The Danvlile coal is furnished at the mines at $1 40 per ton to the railroad company, and $1 50 to mills. The Indiana coal can bo furnished almost if not quite,

cheap, wliilo their freeness from

sulphur and suporior healing qualities ronder them far more valuable. Prof. Cox found traces of iron ore throughout this region, but not to a sufficient, oxtent to run a furnace. The sandstone underlying tHo coal is excellent for building purposes, and is found in beds 48 feet thick. The limestone is found in a belt on the east side of the block coal seam, throughout the entire length, to any extent necessary for fluxing. In one place, on Coal Creek, he found a vein of coal nine feet thick, but it did not extend to any great distance of this thickness.

On Coal Creek, also, extensive veins of salt water may bo found by boring, and in strength it is fully equal to tjie Kanawha brine. It has been thoroughly tested, and 2.4 gallons of this brine will make a bushel—50 pounds—of salt, while of the Kanawha brine, 75 gallons are required. Tiiia brine Is comparatively free from impurities, also, and must prove highly valuable for mercantile purposes as soon as better communication is opened up with the outer world.

This will soon be done. The people, everywhere that he has been, seem fully alive to tho importance of the developments being made, and without much noise railways are being planned and arrangements made for speedily building them. Unfortunately, the fact continues to exist, that the persons most actively interested are not.

Indiana men,

and they need to wake up still more to the value of the mines which are so near them.

The Crawfordsvilla road, when extended toward Danville, will pa6s diroctly through the seam of block coal, and will also diroctly connect with other roads projected leading north and south. Its value to Indianapolis will be very great, and all that can be done to aid it and push it immediately forward to speedy completion should be done without delay. Several other roads are proposed, which will soon take definite shape, when we shall endeavor to keep our readers informed concerning the location. Of one of these, it will be remembered, extending from Harmony, Clay county, down the Raccoon Valley, and another, the extension of the Evansville and Rockvilleline northward to Danville and Attica, articles of association were filed last week.

During the present week. Prof. Cox wiil remain at home, and next Monday' he will start to Greene county, to exauLr. ine the iron region there, and will most certainly make eume very interesting and valuable discoveries.

Prof. Cox has done well in directii^1 his attention first to the extensive mineral region of tbe Weill and Southwest, as definite and official information concerning its resources has been greatly sought after, and is of vast importance in bringing tho best interest? of the State properly before the public.
