EMpLoyER AND EsipLoyEn.-The Syracuse (N.Y) Star
well says that no man works willingly zeaously who
feels that he is not literally compensated for his service
On the contrary the labor matter of necessity
than pleasure and is performed grudgingy and with
Indifference. Employers scarcely ever consider the
wants of any family besides their own, thinking. we
suppose that they live upon air at least they award
it to them and having forced into the acceptance
Of salary insufficient to afford not only but the
comforts of life holy horror" at his specua
and the employer is of entirely too slight tenure it
exists but from year to year. and is purely mercenary
Very few clerks after they have established their
necessities and We have known many where the
demand for additional hundred dollars salary has
had the effect to deprive the merchant of the services of
valuable clerk because the place might be filled for less
sum, though less efficiently He thought he saved
by the operation hut he did not What he gained in
wages he lost in shop-lifting.
