Printers a. a Glass.

The following remarks made by l.. II. Redield, Esq, of Syracuse, at a social en- .ertainmeat given by him to his brethren of the craft, are entitled to favorable conside- ration from printers. He calls their attention to an evil by which they suffer perhaps more seriously than any other class of me- chaBics:
 Printers, as class, are warm hearted, d,ardent in their attachments, and social in lheY Yfeeling. They stand out, and are distinguished from the great mass of mankind, as possessing more intelligence than any other class os men of equal number. Their peculiar husi- ness Is calculated to produce this distinction. and to make them more intellectual Nature must indeed have been niggardly in her gifts, if the printers fail to become more intelli- gent.
 'sBut all the advantages of superior intel ligence, and an elevated position in the esti- nation of the world, why is it that printers do not succeed better in businesss--why Is so large a number poors 1, is not because thty lack industry, for no class Of men work Neither IS il because they are spend;hrilts. or improvident with their earnings. ~ will tell you gentlemen. Printers are uot paid fair equivalent for their services And why are they noti Is it the (aul; of the public, No. l regret to say, it is their own fault. They alone are the cause of 1t. To obtain business they often adopt the degn- ding and rninous system of wRferbidding each other, ill the price, which is paid. ren- ders the job worthless, or worse than that. an actual loss to the one that is so Rnforfa- ndie as to obtain it."

WOMAN IN THE UNITED STATES AND IN EuRoPE.-Fanny kemble Butler, in her new work. "A Year of Consolaiion," alludes to her solourn in this country with something like a feeling of modified dissatisfaction She exclaims. laboring under the chagrn oc- casioued by the petty diseomlasless of travel- ling on the Continent, Of Europe:
 s'If had travelled more on the Continent before went to America, should have been infinitely less surprised and amazed than was at the various unpleasant pecullarties of it's inhabitants
 This can hardly be called complimentary; nor is it precisely what we desire 10 refer to at present. Yet 1t IS an instructive lesson that future travellers in this hemisphere might commit to memory, with considerable benefit She adds in another chapter:
 sOh, my poor, dear American fellow citizens, how humbly, on my knees, to beg your pardon for all the reproaches have leveled against your national diversion of spitting, and the consequent filth which you create around you. Here l sat. in the cabin of this boat, surrounded with men hawking and spilting, and, whereas spittoons have been hitherto the bane of my life in the United States, spittoon here, o-day, wonld have heen the joy of my heart, and the de- light of my eyes. How 1 thought, too, oi the honor and security in which woman might traverse alone from Georgia 10 Maine that vast country, certain of assistance, al lenion, the most respectful cyility, the most humane protection, from every man she meets, wi,hou, the fear of injury or insult screened by the most sacred ard universal care from even the appearance of neglect oI imperlinence travelling alone with us much safely and comfort, as though she were tho sister or the daughter of every man she meets
 Now. to our mind, to say of country that helpless female may travel alone 1t awilh as much safety and comfort, as though she were the sister or the daughter Of ever, man she sneeis," is to pronounce euiog, upon it's inhabitants oi the highest ard proud est character.
