GARIBALDL—FALMOUTH, April•2B.—The Un ,dine
steam yacht got under way from Falmoutl ti on
Thursday morning at 6 o'clock, and proceeded with m Lode"
rate wind and calm weather. The Mayor and Corpor 000
had met, and resolved on and prepared an address tr the
General, but a note was received from the Duke of Su that'
land, late on 'Wednesday evening, addressed to the Volt°
Clerk, stating that as the yacht could start at daylight tile
ceremony and presentation could not take place.
THE BUILDING TRADE AT BIRMINGI3AM.—
ferences have arisen between the master buibierst
the bricklayers, and other operatives of that class, at 13jr"
mmgham, the consequences of which may be a general
strike. The circumstances are shortly as follows :—Earlyr
lh
the middle of last year points of dispute arose, partly in re-
ference to the wages scale. These were, however, arraqed,'
and in the middle of June it was determined that the l'sie°'
layers should receive 275. per week as wages, the number or
working hours to be 59—that is, from 6 in the morrong
until half-past sin the evening, and on the Saturday up to
5 o'clock, the men to be allowed sufficient time to walk front
their work to be at the pay•table at 5. The system thus'
fixed was carried out through last year under a joint code
of rules framed by the master builders and workmen. From
some of these both parties dissented, and in accordance with
an arrangement notice of that dissent was given by each.
party in January. On the part of the men it was stipulated
that they should leave work at such a time on Saturday as'
to be at the pay-table at 4 o'clock. Under the new code of
the master builders it was proposed that the men should.
work from 6 to 6 on the first five days, and leave oft at half
past lon a Saturday. These and other matters of dispat'e
led to the issue which has brought the operatives to the
verge of a strike, which, if matters are not arranged, wit I
take place on Mondaynext. Various attempts have been roads
to bring about an arrangement, but hitherto these have been
unsuccessful. The architects have interposed. They called
a meeting of the masters and men, which was held yo,ter"
day, and was attended by a large number of both claeFes.
The result was the passing of a resolution that it was de-
sirable to settle the dispute by arbitration or by conference,
and a deputation from the architects was appointed to a'.terid
the conterence of the men with the Master Builders Asso-
ciation, appointed to be held last evening. The masons,
carpenters, plasterers, and others are all et them interested
in this question, so that in all probability a strike on the
part of one class of the operatives would involve the other.
A point with the master builders is that all the men engag®d
ia the business shall leave off work at the same time. It is
stated that the wages of the bricklayers in Birmingham
have been advanced nearly 15 per cent. in the course of the
last 15 years.
