Reynolds, 4th Ward, in the case of the victims of the late Diamond Mine disas ter, on Wednesday forenoon last, and which was adjourned on account of the funeral, was re sumed on Thursday morning, and continued until late that evening, when a verdict was rendered "That their deaths were caused in 'consequence of gross neglect on the part of theD.

The Scranton Register comes to us considerably enlarged, and very considerably improved in everything but its political charac ter. Still, whatever we may think of its views in regard to political matters, it is not too much say that its editorial columns show the pres ence of more brains than it commonly falls to the of the country press to command more, in fact, than the aggregate possessed by its cotem poraHes of the same party ia the 12th and sev eral adjacent Districts.

But even Homer is said occasionally to nod and the Register's use of term muddle headed speaking tho Impeachment Managars, indicates a poverty of verbal resources which that'sheet seldom exhibits, and is an invasion of the ac knowledged province of the political slang whanger into which it is not often betrayed. recovers ground, however, when in another paragraph the same writer charges the Radi with "subordination of perjury;" he attains, at this, point, a command of lpngiiage which really conlounds us though to our perhaps contracted view, language has here decidedly the advantage of him. Strange if True. Everybody has heard of maij with a steam leg, which, after setting motion, he was unable to stop, and was consequently obliged to keep walking perpetually. story is surpassed by thatof a soldier who, having lost his legs in the war, was furnished two india rubber ones.

On putting them he felt so happy that he sprang into the air; when he came down he bounded back higher than before; and bo every time he came down; he rebounded into the air with'greatef velocity, until, as dtfys and weeks and months passed on, and he returned from his serial trips longer intervals, he bounded above the clouds came down upon all parts of the earth. It supposed that he is still bounding and rebounding among the orbs of the universe, carried now to one and now to another planet by different currents of gravitation, and that he continue thus in unceasing motion through eternity. Both these individuals would have escaped trouble, and been able to walk with the utmost ease and grace, if, in addition their artificial legs, they had put on a pair of Mark McDonnell's boots or shoes. Ho has just received a new supply of all descriptions, and ready to supply the public with the best work at reasonable prices. Call opposite Battle's California store.

"Problem. A father has $10,000 deposited in annuity office that pays five percent, compound interest, and at his death makes an ar. rangement with his executors to allow his children, aged respectively 5 8 and 13 years, certain annual dividends during the minority each, and to have their respective shares deposited in a saving bank that pays six per cent annum compound interest. As it is the father's wish that each child shall draw from bank the same amount at the age of 21, what sum must be deposited for each per annum to' accomplish it, and to exhaust the annuity at the majority of the youngest child?"

er Pills, and drive out the humors purify the blood, and let the fluids move on unobstruetedly, in health. They stimulate the organs of the body into vigorous aetivity, purify the system from the obstruction which makes disease. A cold settles somewhere in the body, and deranges the natural operations of that part. This, if not relieved, will react upon itself and the surrounding organs, producing general aggrava yu, sunning mm uerangemen. nue in tins condition, take Avar's Pills, and see how directly they restore the natural action of the system, and with it the buoyant feeling of health.

What is true and so apparent in this trivial and common complaint is alsotrue in many of the deep seated and dangerous diseases. The same purgative expels them. Caused bv similar obstructions and derangements, they are surely and many of them rapidly, cured by the same means. None who know the virtue of those Pills will neglect to employ them when suffering from the disorders they cure, such as Headache, Foul Stomach, Dysentery, Bilious Complaints, Indigestion, Derangementoi the Liver, Costiveness, Constipation, Heartburn, Rheumatism, Dropsy, Worms, and Suppression, when taken in large doses. They are sugar coated, so that the most sensitive can take them easily, and they are surely the best purgative medicine yet discovered.

The house is designed for two families and is in every respect a palace, such as any of the crowned heads might dwell in without discredit. It will cost not less than two bun dred thousand dollars. It is very high, with a pale roof, making it conspicuous from every point ol the compass, for many miles. Our homeward route was by the Catawissa Railroad to the Summit, where, through the kindness of bur old friend and former fellow citizen Mr. John Hosie, we found a carriage in waiting to convey us without delay, to Hazle ion.

Under the hand enterprise, and me patronage ot nctt and liberal men, Ha zleton is destined to rival in size and business, the most prosperous and populous towns in Lu zcrne county. Leaving IIazletonon Tuesday morning, we found it as well to run down to Mauch Chunk and there get on the Lehigh Valley Road. Having some three hours to while away, we made the "American Hotel" the point ol comlort. Col.

Robt. Klotz and John W. Reed preside here and give to guests every attention which the most exacting can require.

The card ot the American" will be found in our advertising eolumns.

The Lehigh Valley and Lehigh Susquehanna Roads run on the opposite banks of the Lehigh for many miles, in the direction of Wilkes Barre, and' while the casu al observer would suppose that either one or the other would serve for both, they have enough to do, with an increasing business.

Williams, an old and experienced miner, who had been placed in charge of the mine, descended the shaft to the upper vein and examined the gangways for some distance back from the shaft, and found them apparent ly free from gas and in a safe condition for work.

Accordingly at 7 o'clock he together with eight others descended the shaft to begin their labors. Two of the men remained at the entrance to the gangway, engaged in selecting place on which to locate a donkey pump, Mr. Williams, accompanied by Philip Thomas machinist, went forward into the gangway. closely followed by John Hearse( John Morgan, and David Price, all miners, while a short distance behind them came two other men bey had gone but a short distance, when the amcs from the open lamp carried by ono iae pany set. are to tne gas, wnicn it is sup posed had accumulated or had become explosive by the admixture of atmospheric air, since Mr.

Gibbs and Roberts sent for to attend them. The usual remedies in cases of burns by fire damp were carriages having been obtained they were taken to their respective homes. AH of them reside in Providence excepting Thomas, who lives in Hyde Park. Mr.

Williams, no doubt, after his examina ionof the mine but a few hours before, con sidered the working safe beyond a poradven turc, bnt the result shows that with such an insidious enemy to deal with no precautions are idle, especially when, as in this case its presence might be naturally expected.
