Government Inspector tf the mioes, anJ iwäI managers, with a gaug of meiv weui dowa the shaft aud mule a snort exploration. 1 Tbey found the atmosphere little cleaier than during the day, and the party were eivabled to p-netrate further along the main railway to the souths' ' I They found the bodies of three men and a- number of dead horse. Two of the bodies they were able to take with them to the surface, but the third w as so tightly himmexl Into a heap of fallen timber and rubbish that an attempt to extricate it would only be incurring danger uselessly; as the danger would certainly fall eu anyone touching it. The choke damp was still too thick to allow the party to carry their exploratkus very far, but iuone of the boards or starts from, tlie maiu railway, a faiat smell of smoke and a slightly warmer atmosphere could te detected which showed thai it was not improbable that tire still remained in the minei W hen the party eunie to the surface a erowd . had -collected to hear the latest news. ..The two dead bodies were carried iuto a temporary, dead-huu.se; one was identified as that of McGilluray, but the other was so-" changed and disfigured as to be unrecognisable. One - i infer, who escaped unhanued, sys that in trying to get to the shaft he stumbled across the prostrate form of an old mail. He stopped, and culling some others running by to his assistance, got him into the enge to go to the snrface, and then looked a'oout. He found a little boy apparently dead. He was only insensible, aud he got the little fellow aud old man to the surface, and then found he had rescued his own son and his poor old father. ' A brother was still b-low. Iu the morning James Hudson Greener and two or three other picked men went down iuto the shaft The party were able to go further iuto the galler. ies tliau on the previous night, as the choke dump was clearing away. The man who the night before thought he detected signs of lire, again investigated the same place, and gi Jug further into the ussai;c with Greener soon found unmistakable indications that he was right, as a little further on a brick, stopping the closing to another unused passage, was found, and here a dense black smoke was coming out with a roar like escaping steam. Two men at once rau back to the rest of the party, aud as all now were in the greatest dauger . they rapidly got to the pit bottom and ascended to the surface. The Local Manager, Government Inspector and several of th overmen and old miners were called to a meeting iu tbe Company's otlice and the plan of the mine was spread out oa a table, the location of the tire fixed as well as possible and the best means of action discussed. It was determined to Wood the portion of the mine where the tire seems to proceed from. If prompt means were not taken, further explosions werenot unlikely any moment with a consequence which might be serious on the surface. All night a ceaseless tapping of small hammers was heard in one of the carpenter shops, and the scene ou returning from the mouth of the pit is not often seen. The place had been converted into au undertaker's shop. Cotliins were being made by scores so that no delay might be occasioued. The number lost might be as hUrh as high tu fifty. The dangerous state of the mine will render tbe recovery or the bodies impossible for many days, aud perhaps weeks. Iu the dead house a huge platform is erected, breast high, so that there would be ample room for the bodies as fast as found. An old man viewed the body which CMuld not be recognued the night before, "and ho at once identified it by the clothes as that of his sou-iu-law, . Job Skinner. The boots, and legs are charred, one hand roasted, face burned black aud the top of the head crushed to a jelly. The body of MeGillewrny is but little disfigured, deata having evidently been cause i by choke-damp. Au inquest will be commenced by Ir. Murray at 12 o'clock, in the village. William Dunbar is in bed in a. semi-conscious state. He is the only rescued ' mau who i i wits . seriously injured.' He was a lamp-cleaner, and hud a cabin at the bottom of the pit. He . is unable to speak long enough to tell his story, but his wife says, as lar as she can gather from what he said, he was - In his cabin at the time of the explosion. He saw the lire burst in the back door aud he rushed out to the frout and fell u:i Jiia face. His oil soaked clothing had, however, caught tire, and was burning wheu his son, In coming to the pit bottom, found him and extinguished his garments,and with some assistance got him to the. surface. The old man is butSiy burnt ou the back and tight side, iu one spot on the chest and nose, and one arm was so budly burned that. the skin. eeled down over his hand. He did not complain of sutlering much, which is considered a bad sign: He has frequent periods of delirium. His recovery ; is considered very doubtful, lie was seventy years old. and had been , in the mining. , business, forty-seven years. He had- two ' sons in .the - mine with him. One - is 1 lost. " All the "' other rescued jneu are out of danicerand able to converse about their escape. All tell the same tale. They boil teen suddenly struck down and. knov nothing of the cause. Some of the escape were verynarrmv. Two little boys working near the entrance to the south side-were jammed in a heap against . an .arch by ya nxmi i box;i aud were., found., there . insensible.,; . -whtsre a -horse close ' by' was killed, and completely roasted i the body of the horse, and tbe cohI box-had kept the force of the explosion from tbe lads. Tbe flame, which was but Momentarily seen, jumiied several yards inside of the south cu trance right across the pit bottoui, aud killed, and roasted a number of horses several yards inside of the north pallery, yet ' there are no -marks of -tire between these two points. : There -is great' mourning mnnng the cottages, blinds are down in every third or fourth place. Those suddenly made widows have Large families of young children, and. if the generous assistance is not extended them their sufferings this winter will ; be great, indeed. Work has been almost wholly suspended in the mines since the disaster. Measures are being taken to Hood that part of the pit where the lire is supposed to be raging. THREE MORE TERRIBLE EXPLOSIONS ,IX , THE "' MINK8. .' ,', ' Stella rton, N. S., Nov. 14. At 10 o'clock lost night another very heavy explosion occurred, blowing the roof and Rear of the' fan shaft, timber, briek, etc.. high into1 the- air. The descending debris . fell on ' tho - workshops whkh are in. the . vicinity, . and the roots of the enrpenter shop and boiler-hous, are riddled with holes, some of them of immense size. The no?sc of the explosion was heard for two miles.

A large number. of people were standing about the works looking on irhd the firemen engaged getting ' the Bteainer in position, when jut at 12:30 another; explosion occurred, and Immense volumes of smoke rushed from the fur shaft hih into the air accompanied with sticks, etc. The spectators scattered . in all directions . Fortunately, nO or.e was hurt. I'p to this time all seemed quiet about the hoisting, and pumping shafts which are about i') yards from the far shaft, hut at 12:50 another immense volume of darker col. red sm-ike -came f rum the far shaft and also from the bath, hoistinn and pumptmr shafts.

The Ulk drifted along for the better part of an hour; and out, of it- i feel m vs elf at liberty to extract to much of essence or iniereoce. as will convey some foretaste of the next four years. . . . , i, i General Garfield seems, to begin with, a broadminded man, devoid of any .-tty ftH-liugs of like or dislike. He has no piques to equalize, nor any prejudices to follow, lie ia ready to listen to s:iggesi ions from all parts at the country, and will be glad to get them. No man was ever elected U tbe Presidency with lesa of' personal effort in hia own behalf. lie told nie wheu I culled upon hire, in Septem ber last, that the ixMuiuatlou having 1 fallen to him without his reekinjr. he troubled himself personally little about th result, farther than that he desired bis party to win. His present unworn appearance ad buovant health tell -plainly enough how Jihtly tho campaign ha lain upon his mind. He hud a pleasant career before liim in the Sonate: Iiis tastes lay iu the .' direction of legihttiveok -r hal he never Wen nominated, his- position . mid his duties, though less ' high and consequential than they - will . .. fee i . mow, would have been much nur to his j,icrsonal liking. Feeling under the clrccmstanec! of the case less bound to any faction thai; to the whole country, he will bo much more fret to fullow his conscience and his judgment for the good cf the whole than though' he hud, through a eourrc of intriguing before the Convention, been tied to any sut of men whoselabors miht have secured bis ' success. .The issues of the campaign IunosC upon him a subservience to the uiil of tle majority in certain leading questions; but iu nothing is he an extremest. It is not to be expected that he willtemporize, for -example? with -he-South, but sofar as his influence in the Govenuneut mav go. that part of the' Nation- may look to be fäiriy treated. , - ' Up to the time of my visit General Garfield had not been Informed of tho ctibrt that wm organized ' iu Chicago . this week by Jiseph MeUiil.

As , to any divertitvuf doircs bctweeuthe stalwarts 1 and the negative forces, by which the stalwarts were overcome in the Cuisago .Convention, he will for the present be a passive listener. It is an open secret now that Grant. Cameron. Lopau and ' Coukling will not voluntarily go near him.

The whole Democratic canvass had been a mud nub for 0.0 hog-qrough.
