but as the cholera prevailed extensively around
the lakes thai year, il made a sensible Differ
ence 10 the business.
In 1886. the steamboat association formed
10 1888 was dissolved; the number of steam.
boats incre ased, as did the business. There is
no way without almost endless labor, of deter
mining the amount of business done. or The
capital employed: but as the speculation was
rife, and bank bills plenty, and everybody get
ting rich. greatly increased business. TO the
west. took place that year, both Of passengers
and merchandise.
The same difficulty is found for the years Of
1887 and '3S, with regard 10 the number Of
boats and capital employed, and the gross a.
mount OF business done in those years But
as great revulsion in the trade of the country
had taken place, and general suspension Of
specie payments by the banks occurred in
MAY, 1887, less nuInber, or at least no great
er number Of passengers crossed the lakes in
either 1887 or '3S, than in 1886: sad great
decrease Of goods going west, also had len
dency 10 diminish the business o. those years.
In all probability, could the amoant Of business
Of either Of those years be ascenained, II would
prove to be less than Wha, wss done in 1886
In 1889, the owners of steamboats, finding
the number Of boats, and the amount OF capital
employed in the business (many new boats
having been built during the season Of specu-
lation,) so mnch greater than the business re-
qaired. that if all the boats were kept running,
they would consume themselves and bring the
the owners in debt, about the first of June, in
that year, formed new association, by which
part Of the boats were run, and par. laid Up.
The increase Of business TO Chicago. sad

so large, that regular line Of eight boats vas

As the association formed This year among
she steamboats,. did no, embrace all the boats
on the lake, and as it was formed after much
business had been done, the total amour, Of
business done by steam that year cannot be
determined with any degree Of certainty; in

men in Pennsylvania, ifthey were all probably
employed, whose wages would, in a very short
time amount 10 4 sum sufficient 10 pay off YOUR
heavy state debt. "What a pity'' saws CARLYLE,
" the world cannot be reformed by what the news
papers call tremendous cheering" What pity
il is, say we, that the want oflabor never demands
tbs consideration of our National or State Lsgis-
atures.
The lands being the property OF a small portion
of mankind the larger portion are thus left with
no means, other than their manual labor, OF secu-
ring subsistence, The latter say TO the former,
I" you shall aaora Us some chance to make living
you shall not s,arys 10 death, il you the
possessors of all these lands" Thus, a question
Of right 10 demand a living often forces itself upon
part of community. We hope yet TO force upon
the wo,ld the doctrine that every man has right
10 substsnce-that 10 is the interest of every man
20 become laborsr. In a community founded on
the plan left US by Fourier, there would be such
marked distinct ons--thers would be no such COM
plaints-sll would be employers, and all would be
enabled TO make Ghsr condition comfortable and
happy.
The laborsr dhoud be an Intelligent man, il you
hope to see him cultivate love and rnspect for his
work. Wages never exactly express the true value
of labor there most be higher motive Than the
mere amount of wages received iof Il. To accom-
plish such beside gatum you must give the aborer
an interest ia the sot he tills, OF the shop in which
he works, no p~attsr how small that interest may
be- Then will his labor become dignihed as well
as attractive, aud only thea will he be happy and
contented.
You must organize society anew. Instead OF
having one hundred persons all separately employ
cd aud divided in their interests, they should be
true comb nation OF labor. The artisan, farmer,
mechanic, Sc, could work together N greater NUM-
bsrs, and more 10 their own and the general adj
vantage of all There would then be 40 danger
to be feared from the arrangements IN the euuen-
ey. or tbs univsssl bankruptcy that then was The
lot OF Others The pnce OF their Articles, 10 be
sure, might BE- reduced, but 80 would those they
would have TO purchase.
In a community Of this Kind three times as much
can be manufactured as by the present isolated
plan with the same number 81 individuals; so
that in a few Yeas from the establishment OF Gu
an association il would be just as useless 10 labor
ten houts a day as il would be to heap up gold.--
Instead hf having only TO their own limited
sock OF books, The members Of this community
would have command Of a large library, in which
books ON sv-ry subject connected with religion,
science, Literature, govsmmsnt, morals, &e, might
hs. found The information which they would

THE PASSAGE OF THE BIRDS.
By ANNA MARIA HIRsT,

They ar. passing, III y are passing,
Their syly,n songs are gone,
And wood, and vale, and bosky dale,
Are waiting them alone
Wailng alone, theii lea6ea trees
Quiveriag beneath the blast
That bears the dying echo
OF their latest wa,bling past.
Gone are the ms. nurs OF Their wings:
Ma sinsle sound hear,
SAY. one, the falling of the leaves
Within the forest sers-
r.. low, fain, fall, as one by one,
Each sinks to seek its mate
That lie. upon the frozen ground,
In ruin desolats.
,Tissad to bid the bird. farewell,
The birds that all the spring
Flutt.r.d among cur lssfy trees,
Forever on the wing
That, in the SKINNER, built their nss"
Before our very eyes.
Akd t.n1h us how above all srt,
Were Natures haunoniea
Butthey have passed, and now the ela"
Sweeps shrisking through the eouShs,
Where, every morn and eve, their sweet
And silver songs arose;
Eut winter hath lie day, and then
Mine ears shall hear the strain,
Tn. magic, mellow music
or nv summer friends again.
