LIFE IN LoNDoN.-The city of London
now covers an area of l20 square miles.
and contains population of about three
million souls. 1t is stated in late report
of the register general that its populs-
tion has increased since 1860 at the rate
of a thousand per week 1t far .suIpass
es any other city on the face of the eartl
in wealth, and, alasl it must be added
in human misery also. The register gen
eral records the lamentable-fact that one
in six of those who leave the world die III
the public institutions Eork-houses, hos
pitals, asylums or prisons. Nearly one III
eleven of the deaths is in the workhouses
Every sixth person dies a pauper or II
criminal. And how great q number bare
ly manage to escape this fate The sc
we're competition for subsistence ant
wealth which characterizes London htr
is a terrible ordeal for human beings to
pass through. Cities are centres OF great
temptations, in which many sink every
wear from wealth to poverty, by love Of
display beyond their incomes. Others
again are tempted still deeper, and for
SAKE the paths of virtue for thoseof vice.
1t is related that of the 5000 conyicts IN
institutions near London. 1000 men were
born in affiuenee and had receiveda class

they sauandered their patrimony, ana
being tempted, committed. crime thus
sinking to the degraded condition OF tel

ing city to provincial youth. .

The Match Business.

The manufacture of friction matches
was begun in this country IN 1888. The
Germans claimed to have discovered the
process at about the same time, and 1t Is
probable that like many other discoye-
ries and inventions, that both parties de-
veloped the idea simultaneously. The
new imposts dutie have developed some
facts in this branch of manufactures,
which, like many others, were not before
generally known. Messrs. Byam, Carl
ton & Company, of this city, commenced
the manufacture of matches in 1885, and
are the oldest and largest manufacturers
in the country, having held the patent
for 81 years. They have one factory at
Eryine. two at Athol, two at Ashburn-
ham. Mass, one at Benton, one at Ken
dalPs Mills, and one at Waterville, Me-,
eight in all, beside the establishment IN
Boston. They consume at these differ
ent factories Eve thousand cords OF
wood per annum, mostly sapling pine
Their establishment in Boston IS brick
block on Friend street, 80 Z 70 and SIX
stories in height, where the matches are
dipped, finished and packed, IN which
process five hundred pounds OF brlm-
Stone are used daily and twenty thousand
pounds of glue per annum, for mixing
the composition for the match. They
manufacture fourteen million four hun
dred and forty thousand matches per
day, and under the new law, which re-
ouires q one cent stamp for each bunch.
they will pay tax Of 81 1000 per day,
on nearly four hundred and fifty thou
sand dollars per snnum- The revenue
which the government will derive
throughout the country, from the aPPar
emily small branch of manufacturers, wilt
not be less than three and q half millions
per annum.-Bost0n BNlLStia. l.as

The people are wise in economlsing
lust now, when economy is conductive to
such great results. 1t is easy to save
money in paper money paying times; by
abstaining from unnecessary purchases
and laying aside the currency. than it is
in specie paying times; and those who
lavishly part with their money because 1t
is only greenbacks, will at no distant day
see the error they have been led into.
Purchase no merchandise that can be
dispensed with. If you owe debt, pay
it now while paper money is so abundant;
and any surplus you have put into tne
Government securities now while they can
be had at less than former peace and spe-
Gle paying prices.
A short time will restore prices OF mer'
chandise and stocks, including our Fed
erai bonds, to their nominal standard
and our national credit will be IN tne as
cendency. There are palpable signs Of 9

Whaf Is the nIatterl

The report of the Stated Clerk of the
Presbyterian Church, shows the number
of ministers for 1864, to be 2,265, and
that during the year thirty -four, died,
or one in sixty-six. The proportion of
deaths per year to the whole population
in Ohio, is one TO ninety-seven, butthis in
cludes children under five years of age,
among whom the mortality is four times
as great as among all other ages. Were
the ministers as healthy as the adult pop
ulstiou generally, there should be one
death to about one hundred and Fifty.
The question for the clergy is, whatis the
cause of the large proportion of mortali-
ty smong them; and can it'be removed
Perhaps little moregarden work in the
country and ssw-buck IN the town or
city, together with less pies, cakes and
sweet-meats, would improve their chan
ees Of life.-Cn. Gassfs.

aelation Of Egnoranee to Crlme.

1t is undoubtedly great error to re
gard ignorance as the chief source ano
original fountain of crime. Its true birth
place is not in the intellect, but IN the
heart; Its primal cause is not mental
blindness, but moral corruption. A mis-
take at this point will be sure to Vltiate
every scheme of education for the young,
and of corrective discipline for the VIC
ious. founded on this false assumption
Nevertheless, it is abundantly proved by
facts, that ignorance, though not strictly
the parent Of crime, tends to foster 1t,
and that intelligence, though not thor
ough and sure remedy, has a powerful re-
straining and sanitary effect. Such sta
tistics as the following are conclusive up
on this point. In Pennsylvania, " per
cent, of the population can read ana
write; but of 296l inmates of the prison,
only 1920, or IS per cent, can read and
write; but of 2l5 inmates OF the State
Prison, II, or more than one third, are
ignorant of both these accomplishments:
In Massachusetts,, less than per cent OF
the Inhabitants are incapable OF read
inc and writing; but out of 49l convicts,
OF or 90 per cent. were incapable Of do
ing either.
There are three ways, especially, IN
which reading operates to prevent
crime. as a recreation and conse-
ouent barrier against improper and
injurious amusements. as an AID IN gam
ing livelihood, and as a qualification tor
perusing the Bible and other good books
and thus learning the way OF holiness
