Trains are bringing miners from nil quarters, free of charge, to assist in res? cuing those in the mines, whether dead or alive. Tho widows and orphans caused by this accident will not be less thnn 600. A prolonged strike has just closed which causes greater destitution. The men who descended the shaft found the doors at the bottom closed, and lost their lives while waiting for implements to force their way in. It is supposed that the doors were closed by the miners to ex? clude the flames. The only hope for the safety of tho 202 men in Avondale mine lies in the probability that they may have shnt themselves up in a remote part of the mine, away from the shaft. The death of those who descended the shaft to res? cue them was caused by foul air coming from the mine. RICHMOND, September 7.-Sam.

A COTTON FACTORY, IN NASHVILLE. The Nashville (Tennosseo) Bajmer mys: "The establishment of a mammoth cotton manufactury which has, during the past three months, been agitating tho minds of tho capitalists of our city, is now beyond a peradventure. Tho last dollar of the $300,000 stock required has been subscribed. Tho stockholders represent some of tho strongest moneyed and energetic businesiimen of Nashville. Tho manufactory will bo located on eighteen acres of ground, including tho McGavock Spring, donated by tho North Ashville Land Company. It is a littlo singular that upon the very spot where, in 1777, tho pioneers first pitched their tents, built their stockades to resist thc constant invasions of the Indians, clear? ed their first land and raised their first crops, so gigantio and industrial a con corn as projected should be erected." Heber C. Kimball, the recently de? ceased Mormon, loft $50,000 to bo divid? ed among forty-one children. Saturday is the marrying day iu Paris, when they average about 200. * 7'"roiAtrPiAii AifP cblMti?fefes^i.. - Nxw Money active, afc ^ Gold Flour 5@l?c. lower., .Wheat doll and 2@3c. lower.

ANDY AS A THORN.-Writhe and squirm os they may, the radicals cannot shake off the awful conviction that Andy is coming back to Washington to punish them. Tho dreadful monster, whom they had fondly hoped had been slain and buried out of sight, is to appear be? fore them again, with flaming eyes and gnashing teeth. No mau in the broad land do they hate as they do Andrew Johnson; and if they could have fore? seen the Democratic coup d' etat in Ten? nessee, thoy would have stopped nt no forcible moans to have prevented a fair election. Cn any trumped-up pretext the State could have been overrun with bayonets, Senter would have been de? posed, aud negroes alone would have been admitted to the registry. But Boutwell, Butler, Logan, and tho gang of "bitter-ouder8," who run tho govern? ment, failed to look far enough ahead this timo. So the detested Andy is com? ing back again to mortify them with his triumphant ostentation, to hound them to rage with taunts, to harass them by exposures of their secret rascalities, to bore them almost to death with his in? terminable speeches, to be a very thorn in their sides, and tear their quivering flesh dey by day. What a prospect for tho sinners!-Neic York News. The famous Siamese twine, Chang and Eng-or as they are known in more mo? dern and polite parlance, Messrs. Chang and Eng Bouker-have gone on to Har? risburg, Pennsylvania. They aro accom? panied by their wives, aud a numerous retinue of children. 0BITUAEY. Died, on the 29th of July, 1869, MAUD GIBBES, daughter of David B. and Elmanda T. Clayton, aged one year. In this sad bereavement the brightest hopes of fond and devoted parents have been crush? ed; the fond anticipations of the future dis? pelled hy the dark, lowering, sombre cloud of death; the glowing prospect s indulged in have been dissipated hy the gloomy night of sorrow and grief; and the grave-tho cold, the silent gravo of darkness and gloom-enshrouds all that was bright, beautiful and lovely. Interest must ever bo awakened by tho spor? tive gambols and sprightly ways of childhood; and tho subject of this notice, though hut in infancy, excited admiration hy h r 'Marked in? telligence and vivacity. But that Al! ~r?so Be? ing who, in inscrutable wisdom and o'ertlow ing mercy, sees lit to af?lict, has called her to his throne in Heaven, to minister with othor angels, who delight in singing hallelujahs to thc King of Hosts. Resignation to God's holy will, and feeling that tho separation is hut a temporary one, consoles tho bereaved parents of her who has gone before, to be, perhaps, a watch and di? rector o'er their motives aud actions. Inaocent and guileless, sho has left this dark, transitory and fleeting world, to inhabit a sphere better suited to her nure spirit, to sing in harmony with countless nherubs around tho throne of a kind and indulgent Father. Removed from scenes of trial and woo, and transferred to a elimo more congo . nial to her pure and unsullied spirit, sho j will glorify her merciful and beneficent Hen- i venly Father, and await a re-union with those who loved her so fondly and dearly during her brief sojourn on earth. Tho earthly father's love prompts this feeble tributo to the memory of his baby: One short and happy year She smiled on us below; We hoped to keep her herc Till WO wcro called to go; But God takes hack the blessings lent, Though wo our weaker claims present. Our solfish hearts had bound her To hold her back from bliss; Now glory beams around her In brighter worlds than this. Farowell, till guardian angels come, To bear us to her happy home.

UICHARD TOZER, SeptS C_J. H. WELLS._ Ay er's Cathartic Pills, "for all the Pur? poses of a Laxative Medicine. PERHAPS no one medicine is so univer? sally required by every body as a cathartic, nor was ever any be? fore so universally adopted into uso, in every country axd among all classes, as this mild but efficient purgative PILL. The obvious re.ison is, that it is a more reliable and far moro effectuai remedy than any other. Thoso who have tried it, know that it cured them: thoso who have not, know that it cures their neighbors and friends, ami all know that what it does once it does always-that it never fails through any fault or neglect of its composi? tion. Wc have thousands upon thousands of certificates of their remarkable cures of thc following complaints, bnt such cures aro known in every neighborhood, and we need nol publish them. Ad ipted to all ages and conditions in all climates; containing neither calomel or any deleterious drug, they may be taken with safety by anybody. Their sugar coatiDg preserves them ever fresh and makes them pleasant to tako, whilo being purely vegetable no harm can arise from their uso in any quantity. They operate by their powerful influence on the internal viscera to purify the blood and stimulate it iuto healthy action-remove tho obstructions of the stomacb, bowels, liver and other organs of the body, restoring their irre? gular aotion to health, and by correcting, wherever they exist, such derangements as are the first origin of disease. Minute directions aro given in tho wrapper on the box, for tho following complaints, which thoso PILLS rapidly cure: For Dyspepsia or Indigestion, Listlessness, Languor aud Loss of Appetite, they should bo taken moderately to stimulate the stomach and restore its healthy tono and action. For Liver Complaint and its various symp? toms, Bilious Headache, Sick Headache, Jaun? dice, or Oreen Sickness, Bilious Colic and Bi? lious Fevers, they should bo judiciously taken for each case, to correct the diseased action or remove tho obstructions which causo it. For Dysenterry or Diarrha-a, but one mild dose is generally required. For Rheumatism, Gout, Gravel, Palpitation of the Heart, Pain in the Side, Back and Loin, they should be continuously takon, as re? quired, to change tho diseased action of thu system. With such change thoso complaints disappear. For Dropsy and Dropsical Swellings, they should be taken in large and frequent doses to produce tho effect of a drastic purge. For Suppression a largo dose should bc taken, as it produces tho desired effect by sympathy. "As a Dinner Pill, take one or two Pil'.s to promote digestion and relievo thc stomacb. An occasional doao stimulates the stomach and bowels into healthy action, restores the appetite, and invigorates tho systom. Hence it ts often advantageous where no serious de? rangement exists. One who feels tolerably well, often finds that a doso of these Pills makes him feel decidedly better, from their cleansing and renovating effect on the digestive apparatus. Dr. J. C.
