      " That your petitioners are clearly convinced that while Mines are allowed to be worked aa at present with only a sivgle-braiticed-pit to each , as in tho greatest number of instance s iu these districts , through which are supplied 100 , 200 , 800 , 400 Bnd sometimes 500 acres of under-ground workings , bxtenUinj ; in some c . 1963 to sixty or seventy miles of passages , that tha lives of your petitioners will continue in daily imminent danger . fr .- "m the ihcapaclity of one shaft to supply « sufficient quantity of air . ' That your petitioners are further convinced that

      bratltced shafts , or puts divided by wooden partitions , are very imperfect , dangerous , and ill-fitted for securing proper ventilation , as they waste the air at its a < iurm by allowing an escape from the doumtittst to the upcast . through a wooden partition of about seven iucb . es thick , tha temperature differing between them from 58 ° to t 6 ° ; tnat in accidents they get eaMIy derangud or destroyed ; and , as is universally the casu where the . y exist , are used at the same tlmo for drawing coals in corves or tubs which obstruct by the amount of their areas , tho admission and egress of air in tbfiir already too-diminished capacities .

      " That the only mode of securing proper ventValion , ¦ whatever direct means may be employee for producing it , is by sinking two Shafts always to the coal or winning nnn in proportion as the underground workings ate extended , making additional Shafts ; iuui thus would the whole Mine be thoroughly ventilated , the Coal more easily and healthily worked , a A yoar Petitioners secured ffoni the recurrence 0 ! these ttirvble uccirlenta .

      ' That such ventilation may be properly applied and the Mine placed in every repptct in an perfect a condition as its nature will admit , your Petitioners respectfully submit to y « ur Honourable House * th : it means sbou .

      " That for the securing of thsse and other Improvments and advantages to the mines , which selfintereft or negligence wight reBist , evade , or leave unaccomplished , even though authorised by your H nourabie House , your petitioners conceive that the appointment of official Inspectors of Mines , as of Facc . iries and Railways , with authority to investigate , suggest , and recommend or enforce , would greatly conduce thereto , and , uUo , to their early introduction and rightworking . " The adoption of these sug « eetions your petitioners are firmly convinced is imperatively necessary for providing against the dreadful calamities of the Mines , and for thtir better and economical working ; your petitioners , therefore , humbly and most earnestly pray t' at your Honourable House will take them , and any other beneficial suggestions that may be made , into your immediate nud serious consideration .

Bowman than drew the attention of the meeting to tbe appeal of Mr Hill , editor of the Northern Star , and said tbat it was of the most paramount importance that this appeal should be warmly and vigorously responded to by the Chartists througV . sut the country , for it appeared there was a likelihood of the verdict found at Lancaster being set aside altogether , providing the means were furnished to secure the aid of the most talented men at the bar . It

      was incumbent on the pLop ' . a to supply those meaDS , as a matter of economy , for it v- 'ould be much easier to do so , than it would be to maintain all those persons in imprisonment , which was a consummation devoutly to be avoided .

Hill be responded to , by this council becoming collectors on next S iturdny evening for the General Defence Fund .

      COMMERCIAL NEWS . MONEY Market , Aprii 20 . —The ftppr-ittoaj a Wall-street fur the last few days bear a closer i * JL blance to those of 1835 than any which have beerT ^ L fer many months . Tho great abundance of i ^ m ? and the facility to speculation which the basks ap disposed to give , by loaning freely at a « mj ! l ^ , ^ upon state stocks , have awakened among the dealersT least ail tbe spirit of ths operations then so cu rent a from which the banks and the community have receiJji such essential injury . That the improving conlit . { Q n' 2 things generally w .-irranted an advance from the » treme depression , occasioned by the want of confide which prevailed , and the immense losses which tik ! country had suff red , will not admit of a dmibt- hi tbat so great a change hca occurred as to warrant th rapid improvement which the market has experlen « 5 may well be questioned . " ^**

      The prices of the great products of thp eonntry n . still depressed ; many sections aresuff ^ rinjt for theita ! of a currency , and that which is now flowing in , to j ^ ply the place of the paper that has become va ! ue ! e » j not of a character to produce an expinsion . and crests rapid improvement in prices . We have been and atm are drawing from Europe the specie necessary to fin m , vacuum , and when the prospects of trade warrant on merchants in recommencing their importations , it " »»] we suspect , be found that they are to be paid far cbaefi in specie . ' Tli-j result of the experiment we are now matin * the experiment of a self-regulating curreney—^ jT ? uncertain , and we at least are by no moans ssngXl that tho result will tend to promote tho prosperity ^ the country .

      We ar 3 disposed to regret tha appearance of tbs speculative mania , believing that ita inevitable rc-jgu ¦ will be to creatft a severe re-action , which will prodnj . an injurious effect upm the prospects of business , tm ¦" sould not be bo much to be apprehended , if the ? en considerable advance which has occurred had been fa consequence of puTchaaes for permanent inv estment But a large share of them are purely speculative , aad when the banks recal their advances , will be resold to pay the loans , while capitalists who purchased at h ^ prices take advantage of the rise to realise their p ^ gj , and employ their capital in other purposes .

      In other respects we have little change to notice ij the general appearance of businpsa . Commercial nff drs appear gradually to be assuming more rtsbilftj and coniidenca ia elowly returning . The comninaitj are , however , disposed to move with caatiun , ani mercantile operations are likely ; for Borne time , to be confined to the legitimate wants cf trads . The anpij . I cations to the banks for discounts of paper are ij I consequence very limited ,, and such as is satisfactory i | re 3 dily taken at 5 per cent . Loans are understood to have been made at even less rates , and unKss a rev- > aj of busine

      In domestic exchanges the business is very tr . i ' mr and the quotations present no essential variation , ' The operations in ttocks , as already renmken , rme been very lar ^ e , and ot a very consWerabm advance from tho quotations of the previous week . The noli ; of tho business is confined to State Stocks , although bjik andvaiiroal stocks ! are gradually txsitisg moreattea . tion .

      EXTKACT VUCM A PRIVATE LETTER . Piiiladelimii . v APRIL 27 , 1813 . —Tho Legislature of this Siate anj . urnta un the 20 th i St ., and though thi-y have iiot Uoc < > aa much as could be wished , they have passed tnnw importa ' . it laws , which will give an increased confidence to tbe bondholders , They have ceased all out nv . The appropriation for the present yesris only 750 , 000 dollars for all purposes—a difference of 50 per c * : nt . from that of last year . Tney have imposed a further tax of one dollar per cent . —( being now two dollars per cent , in all ) on real estate ; and of more con 3 iquence than either , they have authorised the sale of a considerable portion of the public ¦ w orks .

      The Delaware division—a carml of forty miles—is to be sold for noi less than 1 , 600 000 dollars ; this being a small work and easily managed , and with & good prospect of revenue , will have many competitors for tha purchase . The great line hence to Pittsburg on the Ohio—three hundred and more miles of railroad , canal , &c , is to be sold for the Bum of 16 , 000 , 08 » dols ., payable in State Stock . I think this ought to have tbe serious consideration of the foreign bondholder . First , He has a pos itive security for h ! s debt ; and if under the mismanagement and shameful extravagance of tha State Government , this line produced a nett revenue of over 300 , 000 dollars , the continued increase of travel and transportation combined , with a judicious management , would make i = produce three times as much , and give a good interest for the sum invested . Second , The funf ' -holrler , iu subscribing a share of his stock , wou . d render perfectly hecura the remainder .
