Jn October Inst Merrill was n pussonger' on tho cnnnl packet Le^ln Lawrence from Utlon toOrisknny nnd while passing tho steiiinbout Jupiter owned bytbf dqfBndunt«t the vulve of the "nurliico blower" wns eareleasl y opened, letting tho h&t wn'er and Bteam escape and discharge Itself' in the Lawrence. The steam and water sti uck the Merrill boy on the abclpmeu, thleh>, Iojth and other part» of tlie body, burning ajid scalding him so badly that he was confined to his bed for several weeks. Captain M. Smith, of tho Biltlsh steam¬ ship James Tnrple, who iinlvedat Balti¬ more February 28, Irom Algeria, states thitt on Fehruaiy 23 the steaniei enteied a Ifipril- e.me that laBted twel\e Ihmim, during whii.li he tilled two canvas -bags with fish oil, lowered them from tlie vessels bow, so thai the oil would ooze from the bags and mingle with the seas.

It prevented the bens fioiu bieaklng inci the vessel. Messrs. Allison Whly, ol Philadelphia, nnd Chniles F. Majei and S. S.Lee, of I! dtlmore, appealed before the House Wajs and Means Committee in opposition to the placing of bituminous coal on tho free list, it w.is asseited that such action would be suiousiy felt in the interior of tills country, biciiuse foreign coal Would not be very liurtlul along the coast. On the domestic article there was a main In of only 15 or 20 (ems on the ton, and taking oil tlie picscnt duty would have the effect ol closing the mines of this country. Even ieducing wages would not be beneficial. All the Breakers declared that they could not understand why this particular interest had been singled: out, and Inquired.of Chairman Monison] lrom what source the agitation to put tills coal on tho freo list emanated. No leply wuiefllven, however. In conclusion it um- demonstrated by statlslios that the Uniled btates paid higher wages to ItB miners than the provinces ot England. TRIl'LB. THhRMIC MOIOK.
