Last Saturday night a slide caino down off the bill and covered up tho bed of slack which they had spent several hundred dollars in uncovering. They bad it arranged very convenient ly for handling, but now their work is i all lost, and they will not open np the bed again in tbo same manner, as tba commencement of wot weather renders another elldo imminent at any time. The clack will now be loaded into carts and broagbs to the bunkers in that way. It is fortunate that tho slide occurred in the night, for if it had come down in tho daytime it would hare buried the five men who woro working there. Confessions of a Priest Rev. Jno, S.
