ah MARCH 28th. 1861. eens ‘ : INING ACCIDENTS, e mal The frequency of fatal mining accidents been, more-deaths fre thin cause among adits’ in this county: thaa frot all other tos Philt'we do not hear yf some fatal disaster iu the:diggings, whereby men in the full tide of life and Usefulness. are into eternity: Moxt. of these accidents are caused by the caving of banks, under. which men ate at work. plyitig hydraulic pipes, undermining the bunks; trusting to speed of foot _ ‘to escape when the mass nodds and totters ofall, A stumble, or a miscalculation of dis_tatice; or an anusually large cave, oF the falling: ofthe bank without ‘warning, conte the unwary miner his life: Et seems to us'that some. means should be.adopted. to guard eyguinst these dangerous casualties, either by stationing a watchman where he, can ohaerye every movement of the earth, or else “by the application of some kind of, machinery by which the, pips ‘au be’ directed without, the necessity ‘of handling’ itso ‘near tot unipending elif. , ’ f * Pitevei the present system need agt be go prolific of fatality if more care was observ. ed. ‘The banks seldom fall without some previous indi¢ations, and miner *~hould be: less daring in encountering the danger. They get ~ fardened by constant working in dangerous places, afd take chances which no man of ordinary caution would encounter at_his first’ experience in mining, , It is better to run a dozen timés from possible danger, when the indications are false; than by tempting. fortune too long, to be overwhelmed, We think, also, that miners working below such banks, where they may at any time be compelled to run ‘for their lives, should see that the path is elear behind: them—that no big loge or boulders obstruct their retreat, aud hem them in. “A little time expended upon such matters would save many lives. We, think these facts should be impressed upon the minds of the mining community, and. that. if they ‘were fatal aécidents would be far less frequent. Our miners are brave to a fault— but foolhardinéss. is to be Condemned even in axoldier. The present system is necessarily dungerous when best conducted, but carelessness increases the. danger, and carelessness increases with habit, We have’noticed that these accidents grow more frequent every, year, dnd we think it arises from the fact that familiarity with the danger produces insensibility. “€ THE First OrRGAN.—The first organ ever heard in public worship in this cougtry, was sent from London to the King’s Chapel, in 1714. The organist came out from England . with. the instrument, as ne person.in the colony was to be found able to assume its charge. The first organ ever built in this country ‘was thade by Edward ‘Bronfield, who died August 18th, 1756. The fact: is stated on his tombstone in the chapel burialground.
