Tho ftooiety aiijourned to meet in the church Bethlehem, in the year The Mysterious Disappearance Case in Warwick, We rioted in a recent issue Lhe unaccountable disappearance oi' a young lady of "Warwick, this county, the daughter of Mr. John 0. Clark, a woalljiy and highlj respected citizen of thut town.

The young lady is eighteen yeats old, an only daughter, and has received eve advantage of education and tho tenderost, parental care. She left home early on 1" i-iday morning, May 28th taking her best dresses and jewelry witii hor; and though tho iiiott vigilant search has been mode for her by her relatives and friends, aided by ukillful New York detectives stimulated by tho offer of largo reward, no trace of her has been found. A Now York pt.pcr gives some particulars of tho case, as follows: Orange county is excited over tho mysterious disappeuranuc of a young lady, whose relatives are wealthy and of the highest respectability. 801.10 months ago hho visited some in his city, and for the first time in her lifo Wallaek's and other theatres. On her rutum home, she carried with her several editions of sterling dramas and farccf.

For weeks she studied them intently, and iroquently astonished hor par, nits by long quotations Irom bhakespeare delivered in a half playful spirit of tragedy. She mado no allusions to her theatrical experiences in this city and no one thoug for a moment that she had become stage- struck. On Friday morning, May 28, however, she suddenly disappeared. She was afterward seen on nn lilrio express train eit route lor this city. In reply to an inquiry she tiaid that her WPS sick, and that sho had been sent for to cheer up the old matron.

She has a fijr complexion, 1 ight blue eyes, overflowing brown hair, and is of medium height and a willowy form. She is modest in manner, lisps a little, and hat a first-class cducaiion. She wore a waterproof cloak, a brown mixed traveling suis with gimp trimming, black Neapolitan hat, trimmed with blaok lace and pink roses; set of black jewelrv, smnll gold watch, rubber arid gold chain and bar; had with her a common black carpet-bag and satchel, a. long black silk drjss; also a muslin dress small blue sot figure. It is thought that, she has fallen into the jaws ot some of the theatrical sharks infesting tho city, arid a reward of if50(1 ban been orforosi for hor safe return to hor parci its.

Real Eatatis in Montieello. The Watchman a otes tlifi sale of "Wiggins hotel property in Montioello, by J. C. Bedford, to John Suydmn and Eliza J. Beaver, for $4,900, Throe years ago the roperty was purchased by Mr.

Tho Miners' Strike-Situation of Affairs in the Coal Hegions, We compile from our exchanges in the coal regions suidry items of news concerning the situation of affairs there as follows: A portion of thi SchuylHll county oper- ntors have agreed to the Basis" of 20 and it is probable mining will be're- sumed there within two weeks. The miners cf tho Ponnslyvania Ce.al Co. at Pittston still continue work--tho only body of miners in the coal regions who have not joined in tho suspension. A committee from the miners in tho employ of the Delaware Hudson Canal Co waited on Mr.

Thomas Diokson, on Wednesday of last week and made tho statement that the Schuylkill operators hail agreed to the basis of 20 -per on the price of coal and they (the H. man) wished to know what the Company proposed doing. They were answered in brief, thai, the Company were not prepared to enter into any co- partnership with their employees. Some general talk folj owod, in the course of which the committee were if they wore not among tho first to suspend, which was answered in the affirmative. Mr.

Dickson then told them they would probably be among the last to go to work. This is the first and only interview between tho Del. Hud. men and any officer of the Company since the commencement of tho present difficulties. The committee of tho D.

H. men hail a talk with Mr STonng, at Providence Thursday. He told them it was idle to raise the question of bush; it could not bo granted, whatever figure might be fixed on. The Del. Hud.

and D. L. W. Co's have sent groat numbers of mules belonging in the milieu, to pasture, first taking off their hind bhoes. Wo judge from this that the men are not expected to return to work It in rumored that if they stay out much longer repairs will bo begun, of such a character that it vrill not be possible to raise coi.l fur some time to come.

The report that tho Del. Hud. Canal Co. is limiting tho number of boats loaded, is pronounced false by the Honesdale Citizen. The Company are all they can, and moro boat-loads thin they expect to average per day.

On Tuesday 59 boats were loaded, and they hate averaged 50 per dny, and given employment to as many men as could be used to advantage.

J. The BinghEimt Water-Works. Tho new Water- Works at Binghamton were formally tostei I a few dayii since, and wo are informed tho papers there that tho test was successful. The engines worked well, tho mains sto'd the strain withoxit bunting or leakage, and streams of water wci forced above the roofe of the highest buildings. Tho workt, were constructed by tho American Water and Gas-Pipe Company of Jersey City, tho same parties who built the Middle-town Water-Works.

Attempt to Throw a Train Off the Track. Tie Hernltl says that on T'lesdey night a man walking along the Erie Railroad near Hohokus discovered the truck blockaded with a railroad tic and a heavy keg of spikes. He endeavored to remove the obstructions, when rough looking individual sprang out from tho bushus and threatened to blow his brains out if ho offered to touch thorn. The man thereupon ran off and soon returned with a Bagman, and together they succeeded in rolling off tho keg of spikes, just as an express train came thundering along. Tho cow-catcher struck tho tio still lying in tho and throw it from the track without creating any damage.

Tho place is a dangerous one, being a high em- bo nkment, crossing deep goige. The vil- lian who perpetrated the doei is supposed to hove been a rough customer who was ejected from a train near tho place in the afternoon, for refusing to pay his fare. Vigilant search was mode for the scoundrel, but so wr he has esca; arrest. Advance in Wagesi. We loom that thti firemcsn on tho Erie Enilwiiy recently tciok steps to present a petition to tho managers of tho Company asking for an mereoiio of their wages.

The ofHcern of the Company, recognizing the justice of tho claim, and without waiting for the petitioTi to bo presented, voluntarily raised the wages of the firemen twenty-five cents por day. Tlie Company has also put on an additional low of wipers and helpers in the engine-horses. --A Guymard correspondent of the Prew notes that thurti ig 'nothing doing at the Biie Lead Mines at present tho Guyiuard House is open for boalrders again; and there is regularly shipited Ciuymard station nine cars of. milk, with prvfrpoct of tin in- ontase. irf aS'er $1,000 reward for tho detection of person or persons who fired this Erie Bail way Corn- Acquitted.

Alfred Bliven, conductor, and John Sullivan, engineer, of passenger train on tho Northern Boilroad to Piermont, were tried at tho late term of the Bockland Court of Sessions on an indictment for assault and battery, on complaint of ono Isaac E. Gillies. It- appears that GOies with some boon companions from Piermont, had been out to Closter to a danco, and on coming home pretty well primed fusel, they kicked up a row on the train, and were put off by tho engineer and conductor. Gillies made complaint before tho Grand Jury and had Bliven and Sullivan indicted. Thu jury be-foro whom the case was tried, concluded that tho complainant had been served right, and acquitted the defendants.
