THE MNKIN6 TOWN.

lew Fenea, Gardens and Other Property Disappear. ".' Particulars of the Catastrophe at Mahanoy plane, Pennsylvania. ' .A recent Shenandoah special says: A aouple of New York ladies visiting, at the aon.no of Mrs-. Mary Grish, at Mahanoy Plane, . 10 miles aorth of this place, were treated to It scene last Thursday night which gives them sew Tiews of life in the coal regions. It was tkeir first visit to the region, and they had Made their visit to a mine that day, being greatly pleased with what they saw of underground life. At half-past 10 o'clock at night they were sitting in the house alone awaiting Mrs. Orish'a return on a late train from a aeighboriag town, when there came a sudden burst of sound, a trembling shock like an explosion in the back yard, followed instantly by a quiek succession of rumbling, grinding crashing noises, "as if," said one who was present, "the whole mountain was falling in.'' The inhabitants of all the neighboring houses, who knew the sound well, rushed into the streets, some half naked, other just .as they had sprung from their beds, trembling and crying, waiting to see their nouses go down into the chasm which, notwithstanding the darkness of the night, they knew had formed close in the rear of the buildings. The houses, however, did not fall and after a time the people gained courage enough to remove their household goods, but aone of them dared occupy their homes again that night. They took refuge in a more securely situated neighborhood, and the morning showed the extent of the disaster. A fresh hole had been added just north ef Alain street, and their gardens, and houses and fences had gone down into it. Tour correspondent visited the town today. The hole there was about 125 feet long by 76 feet wide and 50 feet deep. The earth was cracked for a long-distance back from the edge. There were cracks in the street itself, and the houses were shaken and thrown out of place. The people occupied them during the day. but found other quarters at night, and were all hunting other houses to remove into a difficult matter in that town, for houses are Bcarce there. The eauseof the accident was the mining operations of of Miller, Hoch Ss Co.'s Stanton col liery, whose workings underlie all this part of the town. They work the Mammoth vein, which 'is 40 feet thick, and approaches the surface at an angle of 05 degrees with the horizon. Just nt this point, the coal is soft and very much inclined to run or slip from its position and fall into the lower workings, while the rock covering jb of shale, rotten and insecure, At this point the vein is probably 100 feet below the surface, and, according to the usual mining experience, the surface ought to be secured by natural pillars, but this is . an exception to ordinary rules. A large part of the town, containing some of the most desirable properties, has already been abandoned because of the sinking of the earth, . and many more properties are now threatenm. .. - .11 1 - 1 X a. Xue etna is sun crumuuiiK uown at the place of the hole, and every now and then a large mass becomes dislocated and falls with a crash into the deposit. Mining experts say at least 40 feet more of the surface to the soutnwara is iigeiy to go - down, and this will take the bouses which - are the best in the place. The fall is sup posed to have been started by a rush of coal la the lower level workings of the colliery, - 000 feet below the surface, as that in the upper workings had not mined out at this point because of its soft and slippy nature. It is not known how much damage has been done in the mine, but it will not probably be very much, unless the surface, as the miners call it, should extend to the gangways, WBicn IB not leareu. it is raining hard to night, and this will be likely to cause further falls. So far tne surtace danger nas Deen eon fined to the properties occupied by Mrs. - Crish, John Griens, Jacob Heisler, Michael Alish and Thomas U'Donald. Several others ; are considered insecure. All these houses will have to be abandoned. Much property . ia other parts of Mahanoy Valley has been rendered insecure in the same way and a - similar sinking is looked for daily at Gilberton, two miles east of Mahanoy Plane, where a block of IS houses is threatened, though the inmates persist in occupying them. . Aacieat Fancies Regarding tne Beard. LoDdoa News. Mr. Darwin, in his "Descent of Man," in alines to the belief that the beard wasorigin- . ally ornamental. Ladies like a bearded man ; he was popular in primitive society, could select the fairest fair, his offspring resembled him, and so on, according to the popular . statement of tbis theory of selection. If the view be true, it must be admitted that women . soon changed their minds. "There is no wife for a bearded man," says a Maori proverb. The Northmen who settled in Iceland were entirely of the opposite way of thinking, and the only reproach that his foes brought : against Njal was his lack of beard. Tbe Egyptians, as rule, were clean shaven, especially the priests, "and for tbis they gave a certain Sacred reason," which imitating Herodotus, we "do not think it lawful to divulge." The neighboring Libyans, on the other hand, were bearded, and tbe northern maritime enemies of the Egyptians probably ' the early Greeks, wore rather thin yellow beards. Yet out of shaven Egypt the Israelites carried beards which they highly respected. To cut an envoy's beard was a gross insult, and be was obliged to tarry somewhere until his beard was grown. Friends might touch the beard in a reverential sort of way, and thus Job took hold of that of Amasa and ran him through the body with a sword. The Assyrian kings wore enormous beards and many curled tiers, or stories, and wehavo an impression tbat some Orientals carried ' their beards in a box. Dr. Doran, in writing on the beard, gravely maintains tbat the early Greeks were shaven, and that they called bearded and alien races "barbarous. connecting tbe world with barba, a "beard." But Homer's Greeks, we know, wore their beards, and the race recognized as Greek on the Egyptian monument are sometimes bearded. The Proposal. Harper's Baaaar. In the good old days of our ancestors it was considered highly .dishonorable for a woman to report an offer of marriage which he bad seen tit to decline; but among many this seems to have become an old-fashioned idea, too obsolete for a moment's attention. Nowadays, if the young woman of the period b the recipiantof an offer, the canjnot endure that it should remain a dead secret, that tbe on should go down upon it untold; and even if she should disdain to publish it herself, her female relatives do uot allow the grass to grow under their feet before the fact is permitted to leak out, if not directly, yet by insinuation and implication. She probably reasons that there is no advantage to be gained from a proposal that the does not care to accept, unless she may have the credit (or dis-

credit) of it among her friends, and prove

ner iasci nation beyond a peradventure, W e do not know why it is that a proposal should be deemed so desirable, why women should scheme for that end, and she who can count the greatest number of them be the envy of her sex. If we do not love the man, what possible . pleasure can we - derive from his proposal, unless it be the ignoble satisfaction of kaowing that others are "wasting in despair" for that which we spurn? While it is always disagreeable to disappoint the hopes of another, even though we have no hand in encouraging them, there must surely be a sense of humiliation accompanying the refusal of an affection for which we have wantonly sought and planned, only to reject a humiliation that must seriously diminish the triumph; for is not the very act a confession of selfish folly and vanity, uough to make any sensible man thank his stars for his escape? Is it not patent to herself, if she chooses to reflect on the subject, that he must have loved an ideal which she no longer represents, but whose complexion she borrowed for the nonce? and that the proposal is due to his imaginative nature rather than to her charms t We all know certain people who have the fatal facility of construing courtesies and attentions by a most liberal translation into positive love making, who have escaped innumerable proposals only by the skin of their teeth; while every one is aware that spinsters of an un certain age have earned a reputation for re counting their conquests, as it tney would convince those who push them into the background that they too once held a monopoly of lovers and proposals. No doubt every woman has the privilege once in ber lifetime at least, of refusing or accepting an offer of marriage, but mankind does not go about seeking to whom he may propose, neither does he propose except under great provoca tion. . . Faithful Memories. In his recent lecture on "Memory," Ralph "Waldo Emerson gives many most interesting facts. Among other things he said: Nearly all of the world's most remarka ble orators, poets, statesmen, wits, soldiers, philosophers, scientists, etc., were men of tenacious memory, (juintilian had said that Tin -1 . 1 " . " memorv was genius, w nue mis was true in the main, it did not always follow that men of genius possessed it. Isaac Newton was a remarkable exception. Jtie could not remember oftentimes his own groat works without trouble, and Newton's genius was undoubted. Themistocles, on the other hand, remembered everything. "I would rather teach you how to forget everything," was the reply. But tbis was wit and not reason, said the lecturer. It has been said that the aflections or feelings were the greatest in centives to memory. The sense of passion lead men to remember. Napoleon cared nothing for Alexandrian verse, but not one line of his army returns was ever absent from his mind. Scipio knew nearly every man by face and name in his army. Seneca could repeat 2000 words of a poem only once heard; Mithridates, who com manded an army made up of all the nations of the globe, conversed in all their represent atives lancuuires. 1 he irnnce ot Urange on one occasion saw Grotius standing by out of curiosity during the roll call of one or bis regiments. Having heard much of Grotius memory, he asked him if he could remember the names which he had read, urotius as tonished the prince by giving all the names in inverse-order. A great scholar had once been deprived by an enemy of a much loved book. Iiis enemy thought ho had conquered him, but the scholar rewrote the book from memory and dehed the enemy. As a further illustration of the memory being strong when the feel ings are enlisted, the lecturer said a man never forgets a debt due to himself, nor, as Dr. Johnson says, who kicked him last. John Brown, of Osawatomie and Harper's Ferry fame, was fond of sheep farming, and had at one time 3,000 sheep, each one of which he could single out from any other hock into which it might have strayed. In his own I town of Concord, his neighbor, Abe Norton who dealt in horses, and was very fond of them, could remember at a glance any one-of the hundreds he bad everseen. Horses which had been sent years ago to various parts of Massachusetts by JHr. .Norton, sometimes came back to Concord, and were at once rec ognized by him as they were driven along the streets. A Boaatiful Thought. How few men seem to have formod a con ception of the original dignity of their nu ture or the exalted design of their creation Regarding themselves only as a creature of time, endowed merely with animal passion and intellectual faculties, their projects, aims and expectations are circumscribed by the narrow outline of human life. They forget thut instability and decay aro written, as with a sunbeam, upon all earthly objects; tbutthis world, with all its pageantry, pomp and pow er, is crumbling into dust; tbat tbis lite is scarcely deserving of a single though except ing as 11 lorms toe imrouucuon oi anotner, and that he alone acts a prudent or rational part, who frames bis plans with direct refer ence to that future and endless state of bring, Sin has so blinded the understanding and do based the affections, that men never fail to invest some temporal good with fancied per fection, and idly imagine that the attainment of it would satisfy the desire and nil the capacities of the immortal spirit! How little do they know of themselves 1 Tbe soul is not of the earth, and they will strive in vain to chain it to the dust. Though its native strengh has been impaired, and its purity tarnished, and its "glory changed, it will not aiways be as a prisoner here. Send it forth, if you will, to range through the whole material universe, and like the dove dismissed from tbo ark, it will return without Unding a single place of rest for it has no rusting place but tbo bosom or uod. The London World says: "There are few women who, if they havo exhibited tbo judg ment and tact which generally command a certain measure of happiness in life, arrive at middle age without acquiring aa expres sion of face which is often no bad substitute for actual beauty, diameter and experience leave their marie upon the feminine counte nance in a more conspicuous decree even than time itself, and when a woman has once passed tbe age of 80 her face proclaims, with increasing distinctness, whether she is a daughter of wisdom or of folly J!' I e Fifty years ago, on the 15th of October, Stephenson ran bis first engine over iron rails in England, and this interesting anni versary is to be appropriately celebrated in that country. The first railroad ever built was tbe Liverpool and Manchester. Soon after, in this country, roads wero built from Albany to Schenectady, between Boston and Providence, and Baltimore and Washington. There are now 100,000 miles of iron roud in the world, of which more than half are in tbe United State.
