A Town Caving in on a Mine.—A Wilkesbarie epeoial to a New York paper says : Great exeitement was oaused at twelve o'clock laat night among a large number of families who reside in tbo vicinity of what ia known as the Diamond mine, one of the largest and oldest collieries of the Lehigh and Wilkesbarre Coal Company. For aboat ten days past there have been indications that a cave-in might ooour at any time, and great fear has existed that serious if not fatal results would follow if those living in houses bniit on the sur face directly over the mine ahoold con tinue to reside in them. Last week many families moved away, but a great many more were left. The extent of ground threatened by tbe disaster covered about tan aores. Last night the whole aurfaee suddenly dropped down from eight to ten inches, while in many places wide seams were qpened as if made by an earthquake. Those who felt tbe shook end went down with their honaea were terribly frightened, end men, women and ohilden rushed out into the oold, dark night t»*ep*rate and fly in all directions. Fortunately, no fa tal consequences followed. The mine, of oourse, cannot be entered, as apprehensions ere felt that the whole enrfeoe may drop further down, although some miner* are of the opinion that the eruab inside is oomplete. Th* damages oannot be estimated at present. THROUGH A BRIDGE. TERBIBLK PALL OF A TRAIN ON THE H. AND IT. lot BAILXOAD—SEVERAL PER SONS KILLED. Special to Sh bouts Bspublloan ] Kansas City,Mo., Maroh 19.—A freight train on the Hannibal and St. Joe Bail- road fall through a burnt bridge near Kiddar, Missouri, early this morning. The train was oomlng west, and waa com posed of an angina and twelve oara. Cap py Groan, the engineer, wee insUntly killed, and the ft reman,whose name oonld not be learned, was mortally wonndad. Two braksmen and several other persons were severely wounded. The bridge was ooneumed during the night, and the.even- ing train was not signalled. St. Joe, Mo., Marsh 19.—About four o’oloek this forenoon, at a freight train on the H. and St. J. Bailroed attached to engine 72 came down Lindsay’s grade, between Kidder and Cameron, 40 miles east of St. Joe, a tan foot span over Long’s branch waa found to have burned after the previous train, the east bound pasaeDger, bad passed over.it. Tho train waa running at a rapid apssd, the grade being very heavy. The engine plnnged into the chasm 20 foot deep, tender and one or two oara piling upon it. Nearly tbe whole train was thrown from the track. Engineer Green was covered up in the mass, and was dead when taken out. Fireman Tanner and a brakeman wore slightly injured. It is thought the bridge had oeught Are from the train last passing over it. IMPORTANT INSURANCE DECIS ION. AFFIBWNO THE EIGHT OP A STATE TO EX CLUDE COMPANIES FROM ITS TEBBITOBX. Washington, March 19.—The Supreme Court to-day deoided the ease of Doyle against the Continental Insurance Com pany, error to tho Oirouit Court for Wis consin. Id this oase the deoision of the Home Insunnoe Company against Moore ia reaffirmed, that an agreement to ab stain in all cases from resorting to the Ctrouits of tbe United States ia void as against pnblio polioy, and that a statute of the State of Wisconsin requiring suoh an agreement is in oonfliot with tbe Con stitution of Ihe United States and void. Tho present opinion also takes the fol lowing grounds: A State baa tbe right to impose condi tions to tha transaction of business with in it* territory by en insurance oompany ohartered by another State, if they ere not in oonfliot with tbeConetitution or laws of tbe United States. It may entirely ex elude such companies from ita territory, or, having given a lioenee, may revoke it for good oause or without cause. The motive or intention of a State is not open to inquiry. The oompany has no consti tutional right to transact its business in euob State, end henoe its exclusion there from, from whatever cause, violates no constitutional right. Justice Hunt delivered the opinion; die- eenling Justices, Bradley, Hweyne end Miller. GENERAL HANCOCK. SOUTH CAROLINA. POPULAR BSNTIMBNT OF THE POLITICAL DIFFICULTY — OPINIONS Or A CONFEDERATE COLONEL. Columbia, S. C., March 17, 1877. “We don't want any recognition of Hampton sa Governor, from tho Presi dent,” said an ex-OoDfederate Colonel with an empty sleeve. “The President,” be continued, “baa no more right to do- oide or 'reoogniae' who ia Governor of Sonth Carolina than he has to deoide or recognize who ia the Comptroller of New York. All that we ask of the President is to take the United Statu soldiers out of that State House end let the people here regelate their own affairs.” “With the troops out what would you do !" I asked. “Simply enforoe the decisions and mandates of the oourta by means provid ed by law. Governor Chamberlain would not resist the order of a court, and we feel satisfied that if the troops are with drawn he will peaceably surrender the Executive end Btate offices to the parties lawfully entitled to them." “But if he should refuse to obey the order of a Oourt and should raaist, what then ?" “Proceed atill by law and compel him by peaoeable methods to yield obedienoe, to tbe law; but as soon as the troops go out Chamberlain is (oo sensible a man to remain a day long er in the State House than is necessary to pack up bis private papers and leave.” “Some people tell me Chamberlain in tends to 'stick' even when the troops are withdrawn ?" I suggested. “Well,” said the ez Colonel, let him ‘atiok;’but,” he added, “I am satisfied that the duration of his ‘stroking’ would be exceedingly brief. He wonid then be deprived of his only existing support and would be compelled to abandon wbat he has known all along to be a hopeless con test. ” “How do yon regard the compromise suggested by Senator Patterson in tbe shape of a new election ?" “Nobody but a fool or a knave, aa Pat terson is would have made euch a propo sition. It would not be rolerated or sab. mitted to for an instant. The white people having rescued the State from tha olutohes of the thieves that PattersoD represents, are determined that they ahall not be deprived of tbe fruits of that vio tory. Peaoe, good order, security and tranqnility have only been retarded thus long by tbe nee of the military. The agony of suspense and the terrible atag- nation in all branches of bnsinesa can't last mnoh longer. The people are not able to stand it, and the President mast sot very soon. We want no new eleotion, will abide by no compromise, and wa aak no rooognition. All we say to tha Preai dent is, 'Hands off! and let us peaeeably settle our own affairs.’ ” THE PREVAILING SENTIMENT. This brief conversation gives the senti ment and feeling of tbe average Carolin ian of intelligence on tbe situation, ex- oept that it fails to illustrate the uneasy and growing restiveneae that ia daily be coming apparent owing to the delay on tho part of President Hayes and his Cabi net in arriving at tbe only peaoeable so lution possible that can be had here. A sort of irritablenesa and snllen discontent la observable that ia the raanlt of long aos- tense and anxiety verging on despair, lope deferred maketh the heart siok, and the people of this State are oertainly al most hopelessly sick of tho dieaatroue con dition of affairs here for the laat four months. Whites and blaoks suffer alike, but tbe poor negroes, comprising the laboring olaas of the entire State, suffer the most. PROF. WINWARD’M SUBMARINE HATfERV. THE »TATK’« SHAME.

Speolal to the St. Louis Republican.] Windsor, Mo., Maroh 19.—Gen. Hun- cook, probably the next President of the United States, was in our oity to-dsy on business. He had aa interview with At torney Gatewood in whioh he expressed it aa bia oonviotion that in dne time Pres ident Hayes would recognize both tbe Nicholls and Hampton governments. He raid be had an interview with the Presi dent not long sinoe, and he was led to believe that tbe withdrawal of troops from the Sonth was a matter of time not long to be delayed. THB NEXT NOMINATION. Io oonneotion with his nomination four yean henoe by tbe Democracy, he said that he did not seek tbe plaoe, but if tbe party thought be was tbe candidate to make tb* rsoe, be would not deoline the eontest. He thought Mr. Hayes would make the people a just and liberal Presi dent. Gbatitude or a Clebovman—Beecher Bats Evarth Talks too Much.—Evarts, ■aid he, I know very well. I have talked to him by the hour, or rather I have lis tened to him by tbe hour, for there's no chance for anybodp else to talk when he is present. He is a delightful talker, too, a man of extraordinary ability, although he talks too much about himself and hia own ipeaohea. Ha will make an excellent Secretary of Btate if he can be held down to practical and to practicable things; and 1 believe that Hayes is the man to get the moat good and usefulness out of him.—Herald.

Going to tbe front door ho was met by a man in his shirt sleeves, who, shaking hands with him and giving him tbe fra ternal hand-shake of a Mason, informed him thdt his friend Mr. Maddox, residing at tbe corner of St Mary and Aunuoistion streets, was ill, even unto death, and wished to see him. The Professor dressed himself, and after looking tbe front and back doors of his bouse, went out by the gate of bis ailleyway, lookiog it behind him. He failed to attract tbo attention of the inmates of his friend's bouse, though be bad| ropeatediy rung the bell, but on Wednesday morning be visited bim and found bim enjoying perfect health. Failing to obtain aa entrauoe the Pro fessor returned to his home, and to his great astonishment found hia front door and gate open. Believing that the house bed been visited by burglars, he imme diately made an investigation of tha premises, but found that all was intaot, even the pieoes of silverware whioh had been left lying on tho table in tho dining room. Bnt passing through the apart ment in whioh bad been oaroftilly stowed away tbe trunk containing bis msgnetio submarine battery, known as his “name less force,” consisting of seven glass jars of one and a half gnllons oapaoity, one glass oylender, egg shaped, sixteen inches long and eight inobes in diameter at the centre, and all the minor paraphernalia of the battery, he found the trunk was empty. A diligent search was instituted bat in vain. Tbo professor entered a complaint at tha Central Station, and tbo deteatives have been put to work to recover the iu fernel machiae, whioh may, if left to itself or under unskilled guardianship, commit some depredation. No two men could have removed the battery, aud even then a cart was neoes - sary. The professor says that the “insti tution” is valueless to anybody bat him self. He forgets, however, that Paokard may have found an engineer to make it useful.—Now Orleans Pieayune. MtLMUAKT ROOM FOR HUNT. Suitable for offloes, sleeping apart ments, Aa., recently fitted np over Enqui- bsb-Bun office. f*b27 tf This Office. Special to th* Philadelphia Timti ] Habbisbubo, Maroh 19. The House of Bepreaentativesiuruiahed a loans of disgraceful contusion to-night, whioh fairly rtvalad the partisanship con flicts at Washington during the sitting of, the Eleotoral Commission or the fleroe en- oouuters in the State Legislature daring the boom bill investigation whioh made glorious the career of Speaker Patterson. Early in tbe evening a oauooa of Republi can members of tho House waa held, in which it was deoided to hold an extra session of tha House to-night, following the olose of (he regular session, for the consideration on tho third reading of tha House bill prohibiting Sheriffs of oities of tho first olaas from appointing deputies to preserve the peaoe at the election polls. Evidently the Democrats were unsuapio- ious of the oause for which the oauoas was held. A short time previous to tbe introduction of the resolution calling for tbe apeoial aeaaiou tha ohair was vacated by Speaker Meyer and oeoupied by Huhn, of Philadelphia. No sooner was the res olution read than a perfeot tornado of dannneiatory nooa eame.from the Demo- cratio lido. BULL-DOZING THE DEMOCRATS. At least forty members rushed from their deaka to that of the Speaker and demanded that there be no departure from the regular order. Mr. Huhn ordered that the members take their seats, and this not being oomplied with, the order waa enforoed by the offioers of the floor, tha Speaker aaaoring tbe inoenaed mem bers they should bo heard. Sohuatteriy, of Fayette, raised the point of order that a resolution ohanging a rale of the House must lio over under tbe rules, but Ihe Speaker declared the point not well taken. An appoal waa made from the deoision, but before the call began Douglass, of Philadelphia, at tbe suggestion of Elisha W. Davis, who waa engineering the thing upon the floor, moved that tbe appeal be laid upon tha table aud the yeas and nays be ceiled upon The previous question. The motion waa quiokly put and declared oarried, hot before the eall began a large number of Demoorata again rushed down to the Speaker's desk, denouncing the occupant of tha ohair in terms more forci ble than elegant. Tha shonta were beard in tha Senate Chamber, and this body was soon left without e quorum. Sobnat- terly sprang upon hia desk, declaiming and gesticulating wildly ; Schell, of Bed ford, shook hie flat in tbe Speaker’s fsoe and demanded “our rights, our Roman rights.” mb. huhn's record. John E. Faunae sprung upon tbe ros trum of tho olerks, denouncing Huhn as a d—d scoundrel, who bad heed kicked out of oounoils and out of. decent society in Philadelphia. Schell was quiokly grabbed by en assistant sergeant, and he end Sobnatteriy simultaneously foroed into their seats. Faunae was collared by Ser geant Gaines, and for a Urns there waa a lively struggle between the two gentle men. The Demoorata menaced tbe officer end the Repoblioens ran to hia assistance, and for a short time it looked as Urongh there would be serious work. Even Rev. Mr. Paztoo, pastor of the Pine Street Presbyterian Ghnroh, who had been sit ting on tbe Clerk's rostrum during the evening, sprang into tha midst of the oootending parties, forsaking tbe Chnroh militant and going over to the Itepubli - oen party triumphant. Mr. Faunoe was soon foroed into his seat, livid with rage. The Honse wee as far a* possible silenoed, the roll oall begnn end the resolution passed by a striet party rote. Few Demoorata attended the epecisl session, and the bill has passed,having but three negative votes end one hundred aud eleven affirmative. Tbe bill was immedi ately messaged over to tbe Senate aud will oertainly pass that body before the day of final adjournment. The Democrats are naturally inoenaed at the unlooked-for and irregular proceeding of the majority. They are now gathered at their headquar ters, and the ouraes are both loud and deep. Tbe bill will enoounter a fiercer, though more dignified and effeotivo, op position in the Senate.
