IT BY MITCHEKKK & MATHEWS HORRORd OF THE COLLIERIES YOUNG GIRL EMPLOYED IN COAL-MINES INSTEAD OK BEASTS. The following ihor.kmg par tictulsrs are 6'ven in a petition presented lately to the British parliament by Mr. BrolhertoB, The petitioner hat had occasion to visit many of the coal miaes of Lancaihire, where he hu oflen been aa toniehed to find number! of femalet employed, of brm varying from eight yeara and upwards Tlieir occupa tion ia chiefly in puahing and drawing tuba or amal' wagons full of coat ftom the place, where it ii hewn 'down to the wagon wayt. The coali are generally . drawn along the waggon waya to the pit mjulli by po niea; but down the bayi or boarda (the paaaaget rtn ning on the rue and dip of the team) which are often ' at considerable inclination, eometimet aa much aa two -fteet in five, and very low, these mimala cannot be 'employed, to women are made uae of in their Head. At first view it ia difficult to distinguish the texes emp loy t d in mine, since both, when dreaied are clothed in ; rough miners' frockt and trowsers, and it was only by . the expomre of the upper parte of their persons and (heir voices that your petitioner first noticed the females blacked and dressed aa they were. The men, in deep mines, where the atmosphere is very hot, generally Work without any other article of dress upon them than alight nether garment. The employment of the fe males, a before stated, is in conveying the coals from the workings down to the wagon waya each of them it provided with a touto belt fastened round the lower part of her want, to the front of this it attached a strong chain which fastens by a honk to the waggon or tub, When drawing the empty tubt or waggont up the in clined plane the chaw pasaes betwen the legs of the woman , who creeping on her legs and armt drags them up very steep inclinations, the whole length of the waya or hoards. On puahing the laden wagont down the waggon way, the chain ia used in steadying them .Your petitioner will now give a narritive of a visit ' de by himself to a mine in the county of Lancashire, in the litter part of the month of September. Ha was dressed as a miner, and went down into the pit in such a manner at to tee the workings auch as they are gen enerally carried on, and without the colliers or their employers being aware of his character at a visitor The shaft wat two hundred yards deep. About thirty boyt and girls wero employed; the former being of ages from eight to. fourteen yean of age." The boyt were mostly engaged in driving the waggont. The girls were of ages varying from ten years and upwards, and wero employed at already detcribed. Your petitioner, after proceeding up ihv incline, went into a wide bay, where there were three persont, namely, an old man of about fifty yeart of age. and two young men The coal wat in thit part being entirely worked out. This bay. wat from eight to ten yardt long, and sis yards wide, and no props or punchea were used; the seam of coal waa near five feet in thiokiiete. Your peti tioner entered into conversation with the elder man, who wat an intelligent person for hit class, and re marked that the bay wat vry wide to be worked with out propt or punches being used. He replied, that it wat perfectly safe, at the roof wat good, and falls in the mine were not common. While engaged in thit conversation, a child not four yeart of age crept out of a hole. The old man said that he waa hit ton, and that he would not be fit for woik for a year. On your petitioner asking the . father why he brought auch an infant down into the pit, he replied that hit wife and daughter! all worked in the mine, and there waa no body at home to take care of the child, ao he brought him there to be out of harm's way. At ihit period, some pieces fell from the roof, which caused your pe titioner again to remark that it waa either not very safe, or there waa a considerable quantity of fire damp es caping through it. ; The man staled that he considered the roof good, and after a few observations, your peti' tioner went down the incline tbout fifty yards to the wagou way. H ere he waa engaged in observing the women and girls pushing the tuba full of coal downi and dragging empty ones up the inclines.- Tha dis gusting nature of the employment of these poor crea ' lures wat bad enough of itself; bill tQ hear the awflij swearing, obscene conversation, and filthy songs, would make any person believe that he was in a land of savages, rather than in civilized England. Ynur pe titioner had been in thit place shout five minutes when a dull heavy souwLwas heard, the mine shook, and some pf the lights were blown out In a moment all was still as death. This silence wat oot of more than e Tew moment's duration, when several heavy sout.dt - followed. Aery now arose that a bay had fallen in, .ends scene ensued Ihiu-defiee description. The men prayed, the ' women howled and screamed, and tome ran one way and tome another, making towards the shaft. After a short lapse of lime, some of the men proceeded to examine; ihe bay which had fallen in, and found it waa that which your petitioner had. left but a few minutes before, - The two young men, being near . the aide of it, had escaped; but the poor old man and -his child, had keen crushed to death, and buried under aome'hundred tone of the roof. Your petitioner is con . vioced that the employment of females in cost mines it to be attributed to the early age at which children are .'Introduced' into such places by their parents. The pa rents having apent mott of their livet in (nines, and .being thoroughly accustomed to the scenes they witness, see no impropriety in them. ' The female children,, brought down in early infancy, have no correct ideas ' '.oftha dangert of a mine; the tcenet of vice and wick ' tdneas or the disgusting and laboriout nature of their ' employment. 'Amidst the tcenet described, are "chil ' dren at the tender agei of eight and ten years.!, There hej pass their days until they become wives and mo uthers. ' Can auch employments at they are engaged in, and tuoh scenes at Hey continually witnett, fit them to become good .wives and mothers, and make the poor man's home) eomfortablo? Colliers are often ac- ' cused. of being an ignorant and disorderly body pf man without any inquiry being made as t j the cause of their '. Wnorance and disorderly conduct. I k "' ' . 44.. ?

Hie name was Box, as my name isi Box. I was a batxy in long clothe at the lime, not even so much as christened; eo U'icle taking the hint, I suppose from Ihe lid of his eea chest, eal lod me Bellophroo Box Bellophron being the name ofthe ship of which he was sailing mas ter. I shan't say any thing about my education though I wa brought up in a first rate board ing echonl, it' not much to boast of; but as soon as I could bear the weight of a cockade and a dirk, undo gotme a birth as midship man aboard hie own thip. So there I wis, Mr Bellophron Box. didn't like the sea or the service, being corrtinQally d sgus'.ed at the partiality shown towards me, for in lees than a month I waa put over the heads of all my superior officers. You may stare, but it's true, for I was mastheaded for a week at a stretch. When we put into port.Capt. , called me into his cabin and politely informed me that if I chose to goon shore, and should find it inconvenient to return, no impertinent enquiries should be made after me. I avail ed myself of the hint, and exactly one year and two months after tejUing Toot on board the Bellophroo, I was Master Bellophron Box again. Well, now for my story. There waa one Tom Johnson on board, a fok'sell man as they called him, who was very kind to me, he tried to teach me to turn a quid, and tfeuerally hel ped me to drink my grog. As I was unmer c fully quisled in the cockpit, I grew more par lial to the society of Torn than to that of my brother midd es. Tom ilways addressed me ''Sir," and they named me Puddinghead, till at last we might be called friends. During ma ny a night watch, when I have sneiked away from a snooze among the hen coops, has Tom saved me from detection, and the consequent pleasant occupation of carrying about abucki et of water on tbe eai of a capstan bar. I had been on board about month, per haps two, when the order came down from tha Admiralty for the men to cut off their tails. Lord what a scene was there! I wonder it didn't causo a mutiny! I think it would have done ao bnt half the crew were laid up with colds in their heads, from the suddenness of the change, though an extra allowance of turn was served out to rub then with to prevent such consequence; but the purser not giving any definite directions, whether the applica tion was to be external or internal, tbe liquor I regret to say for the honor of the British na vy, was applied much lower down. For some weeks ihe men seemed half crazed, and were almost as unmanageable As ships that had lost their rudders. Well, so they had. It was a melancholy eightgto eeejpiles of beautiful tails with little labels lied to them, like the instruc tions on a physio bottleteach directed to aome favored relative or sweetheart, of the curtail ed seamen, What a strance appearance roust Portsmouth, and Falmouth and Plymouth, Si all oiher mouths that are filled with seaslores have presented, when tbe precious re rnembranoes were distributed. I wish some artist would consider it.for 1 think it's a shame that there should be no record of such an in teresting circumstance. One night, shortly aAer this visitation, it blew great guns. Large black clouds, like chimney sweepers' feather beds, scudded o ver oui beads, and the rain came pouring down like like winking. Tom bad been pro moled,and was sent up aloft to reef a aail.when one ofthe horses gave way down came Tom Johnson, and snap went a log and an arm. I was ordered to see him carried below, an of fice which readily performed, for I liked the manand they don't allow umbrellas ia the navy. 'What's the matter?" said the surgeon, "Nothing particular, sir, only Tom's br oke his legs and arms by a fall from the yard, re plied a seaman. Tom groaned as though he did consider it something very particular. , ' He wat soon stripped and the shattered bones set, which was no eaeymatter, tbe ship pitching and tossing about as she did. I sat down beside his berth, holding on as well as I could; The wind howled through the rig ging, making the vessel seem like aa infernal Eolian harp; the thunder rumbled like on in disposed giant, and, to make things more a greeable, a gun broke from its lashings and had it all its own way for about a quarter of an hour, Tom groaned most pitiably, I look ed at him, and if I were to live for a thousand years, 1 shsll never forget Ihe expression, of his face. His lips were blua, and no matter, I'm not elever at portrait painting; but imag ine an old fashioned Saracen's head not tbe fine, handsome fellow they have stuck on Snow Hill, but oneofthe griffins of 1809 and you have Turn's phiz, only it wants touching with all the colors of a paintei's palette. I was quite frightened and could only stammer out, 'Why, T-o o-ml' - 4 -'It's all up sir' said hej 'I muat go, I feel it,' Oon't be foolish, I replied, 'don't die till I call the surgeon.' It was a stupid speech 1 acknowledge, but I could Dot help it at tbe time. No, no; don't call the surgeon, Mr. Box; . ne t oone an ne can, sir. But ire here! and -I I l- .r. .. ..' meu ne maae an enort to inumn Ilia heart. . or -!.', ... . - . 'I tine DSCK Ol Die head. I rnn it'nt milt- ' mil whch. - v.: . i . ' ; : ; ' ; I trembled like s jelly. had seon a inelo drame, and 1 recollected that the villain ofthe 23, 184$ p ece bad used ihe same acttoo ihe same woids. "Mr, B,o,' groaned Tom, 'I' ve a secret as makes me very unesy, sir . "Indeed, Tom, "I replied, "had'nt you bet ter confess Ihe mur ' murder I wat going, to aay, but I thought it might not be polne eon eiderinn Tm'e situation. . The ruffian, for such he (hen looked,: tried to raise bunelf, but another lurch of the B.el lophon sent him on his back and myself on my benmendii. As soon as Irecoveied my former position, Tom continued. 'Mr. Bosdare 1 trust you, sitf if I could do ao, I'm sartin as how I should soon be easier.' 'Of courts,' said I, 'of course; out with it, and I prom se never to betray your confidence. . . 'Then come, come here,' gasped the suffer ing wretch; 'give us your hind, sir.' I instinctively shrunk bsck with horror! 'Doot be long, Mr. Box, for every minute makes it wree,'and then his Saracen's Head changed to a feminine expression, and resem bled the Belle Suavage. I couldn't resist the appeal; so, pacing my hand in his, Tom put it over his shoulder, and, with a ghastly smile, said,, 'pull it out, sir,' Pull what ouiV 'My secret, Mr. Box, it's hurting on me! I thought that he had grown delirious; so, in order to soothe him as much as possible, ( for ced ray hand under his shirt collar, and what doyouthinkl found) Why, a pigtail his pigtail, which he had contrived to conceal be tween his shirt and his skin, when the barba rous order of the Admiralty had been put ia exeeution. INDIAN FUN. One ofthe earliest settlers around Lake Champlain, was Col. Edward Raymun. . He undersiood the character and disposition of the natives ofthe forest, and live d with them in much harmony; frequently employing them to row him up . the lake as he had occasion. One stout fellow by the name of Bigbear, bad his wigwam at no great distance from the Colonel's dwelling, and was oflen there. The The Colonel, having occasion to visit some distant shore of the lake, employed Bigbear to row him in his canoe. On their return, they passed near a high, yet eloping ledge of rocks on whichjlay ao immense number of rattlesnakes asleep and basking in the sun. Tbe Indian gave a penetrating look at tbe Colonel, and thus inquired, 'Baymun love funf''Yee," waa the reply. "Well then Raymun have fun: mind indian, and hold a glum." So he rowed along silent and bIqw, and cut a crotch stick from a bunchof hazels upon the bank. "Steady now, bole a glum, Raymun," said he as he clapped tho crotch astride the neck of a eer pent that was asleep close to the edge ofthe water. "Take um now, Raymun; hold fass." The Colonel then look hold ofthe stick, keep ing the serpent down, while Bigbear tied up a little rack of powder, putting one end of aslow match therein. He then made it faat to the snakes tail and touched fire to tbe match gave orders to " let um go,' at the same time pushed ott from tbe snore; trie enaite eeing liberated crawled away to his aea i ne man an.immediately then stood tip tod clapping bis hands making aa loud a noise as possible, and thua roused tbe serpents, who all in a mo ment disappeared. "Now look, Raymuo, now look; see fun,'' said he and in about a mmnte the powder exploded, when tbsre was, to do sure, fun alive, Tbe snakea, in thousands, covered the rocks, all hissing, rattling twin ing, twirling, and jumping in every way im aginable. Col. Raymun burst into a loud laugh that echoed far across the lake, pie seed alike at the success of tbe trick and Ihe inge nuity of the savages invention. But Bigbesr from the begining to the end, waa as grave as a judge not moving a muscle, and having not he least show of risibility ia bis countenance This is truly characteristic of the Amerioan Aborigines; what causes the excitability of laughter ih others, has no effect upon them; they may love fun, but never ia tbe smallest degree exhibit that character in their looks.

Theory of Mabriaoc There was a merry fellow who aupped at Pluto's three thousand !ears ago, and the conversation turoing upon ove and the choice of wives, he aaid,"ne had learnt from a very aocient tradition that men had been orriginally created male and female each individual being provided wilb a dupli cate set of limbs and performing bin locomo tive functions with a kind of rotary movement as a wheel; that he heoam.e in consequence so excessively insolent that Jupiter, indignant, split him in two; and since that time that each half rune about tbe world in quest of tbe other half; if twa congenial halves meet, they arat very loving couple : otherwise they are subject to a miserable, scolding peevish, and uncon geoial matrimony.
