TnE STRIKE IN THE BuILDING TRADE.-There
is no change in the situation of affairs Both
lparties-the employers and the artisans-seem
to have settled down into positions of quiet but
determined enlargement. The men, especially
the skilled partisans as far as We can ascertain
their sentiments, are resolved to hold out to the
very last, and express their readiness to submit
to any privations rather than sign the ''odious
document The reports received from the del.
egates who have been sent to rouse the provin-
ces are represented to be most favorable. Meet
ings have been either held, or are about hold-
ing, in Oxford, Warwick, Birmingham, Ports
mouth, Plymouth and other towns. Commit
tees have been formed for the collection OF
funds, and meetings are to be held to dis.
suade the workmen Of the provinces from
coming up to take the places of their breth-
rem in London. 1t is urged upon them that
the men in London are engaged in con-
test in which the working classes generally. have
an interest, and that they ought on that ground
afford them all the sympathy and support in
their power. 1t appears that the trades Of
Portsmouth have already sent up gift of EGO,
and q committee has been formed to collect and
fOrward weekly contributions to the conference
funds.

are greatly diminished. Where 50 aud 4lO
used to be taken for necessaries, not more than
81 or 93 is received. This, of course,
must tell again upon the larger dealers and pro.
ducers, and in this way the whole of society
suffers from the antagonisn between some of
its members.

One Of the humanitarian movements of the times al
though little known as tuch, can hardly be es
timated in its Importance upon the well being of our
widely scattered communities. The population of
the American States is in many sections SO sparse,
that skiful Physicians are hardly available to them
Vast numbers Of our people are oblged to employ in
sickness, such medical relief as they can hear of
from each other, Or indeed any they can get from
any quarter Hence arises the great consumption OF
Patent Medicines among US, greater by far than in
any OF the old countries where sklful physicians arc
accessible to all classes Unprincipled men have
long awaited themselves of this necessity, to palm
Off their worthless nostrums until the word has be-
come synonymous with imposition and cheat. One
OF our leading chemists in the East DIR. Aver, is
pursuing course which defeats this iniquity. He
brings not only his own but the best skill of our
times to bear, for the production of the best
dies which can be made. These are supplied to the
world, in convenient form at low prices, and the
people will more buy poor medicines instead OF
good, at the same COST than they will bran instead
OF flour. The inevitable consequence of this is, that
the vile compounds that food our country are dis
cardcd for those which honestly accomplish the end
in view-which cure. Do we overestmate its i'm
portance, in believing that this prospect of supplant
worth and virtue, is fraught with immense conse-
quence for good to the masses of our people,

it, She can take q snooze after dinner, while
her husband has to go to work. She can go
forth into the streets without having to treat
at every coffee house. She can paint her face
if it is too pale, and -four it if too red Size
can stay at home i'll time of war and wed if
her husband is killed. She can wear corscts
if too thick-other fixing, if too thin. She can
eat, drink and be merry, without costing
cent She can get divorced from her husband
whenever she sees any one she likes better
She can get in debt all over, until he warns the
public lg advertisements not to trust her on
his account any longer
