EDrroR STAR We beg leave to submit in
your columns the following question Why
is there such great contrast between the
clerks employed under the Government and
the mechanics Some time ago the mechanics
called for reduction from ten to eight hours
labor This could not be granted So the
clerks step mp for reduction IN their time Of
labor, lif it may be called so,) and this was
granted without any hesitation, and an order
lssuedfo that effect at once. Now If the clerks
could not endure their employment in we'll
Sentiiated, AIRY, and pleasant rooms fer six
hours, what is thought Of the mechanic, over
Dot hre, or IN the scorching hot sun, for ten
hours, from day to day.
We think the mechanics have feelings As
well as the clerks, and have as good a right to
the sympathy Of the Government as any of its
employees; therefore we hope. while the Gov
eminent authorities are dealing out such lux.
pries, that we may at least get some of the
scraps. We think that we could appreciate an
hour OF rest as we'll as any one, and probably
more so than those that have received IL.
Think Of the mechanic. We are human be.
lnGs also, and are the least expensive to the
Government Of the two classes, as well as the
most profitable, and the Government author.
tiles know IL too.
Yours. respectfully.

not see anything 90 wonderful In the little work
before us. It's an attempt 70 be funny, and
would probably make child Of ten years old
smile feebly. If gentleman of MIR. Carleton's
supposed culture, on visit to Peru, saw nothing
better TO sketch than the little comedies which
he gives us, the conclusion is irresistible that
either Peru is not worth visit, or Mr.. Carleton
is not an observaut traveller. The wood
cuts are almost equal those which we
weekly give our readers in our Saturday
Supper-Table Series. We treat of the same style
of subject, and were it not thai we might be
accused of partiality, we would rather prefer
our sketches as works of art, to the ''perfec-
ton" given us by the New York publisher.

BULBS. BY Edward sprague Rand, Jr. Boston:
j. n. Tilton ~ Co.

j. Il. Tilton Co.
A more beautifully printed and really useful
work has seldom fallen under our notice. The
work is another Of series of garden guides
which the house of Mr.. Tlton is IN the course
of publishing. II is a pleasantly written and
valuable adviser on all questions in relation to
bulbs and roots, from which spring such fsmi-
liar plants as the hyacinth, tulip, lilly, and the
like. Il is evidently compiled by one who
knows whereof he writes, and Is SO handsomely
got up that It win be an ornament to any centre
table. To all our citizens, and especially the
ladies, who desire TO embellsh their parlors
with flowers, we recommend the book of Mr..
Rand.
