Ar the present time there are large num-
bers Of emigrants returning from our shores
to their native land, and this may seem
somewhat astonishing when it is understood
that by far the larger part of these are Irish.
Work at the present time being too scarce
in this country to employ all that seek our
Shores many are returning from whence they
came. The German emigrants, however, as
a general thing, seek the'far West, and do
not cling to the large cities as the Irish do,
and they are, for the most part, better sup
piled with money on their arrival in this
country, 80 that they are able to take time
in hunting employment. The average num-
Der leaving weekly on the seven principal
lines is about three hundred-mostly Irish

Several Senators and Representative have
arranged to have Congressional prayer meet
ings every Thursday evening at the Capitol.
This movement is eminently commendable,
and II is q hopeful sign Of the times, the har-
binger, possibly. Of return to the ways Of
wisdom, whose paths are those Of pleasant
ness and peace. If these meetings shall be
held we shall expect that the honorable Sen
ators and Representatives will devote some
attention to venerable formula commonly
called The Lords Prayer" where GoD is
invoked to forgive "as zoe forgive those 'oho
trepass against us.' II 1t would not be OBJ
trusive, We would like to recommend TO Q
half dozen radical Senators and Repre-.
sentatives, whom We could name, the pro.
priety Of committing that excellent prayer
to memory. 1t will be likely, we think. to

Employment Of Ladies' in the Treas


EDITOR NATIONAL REPUBLICAN: A para
graph in your paper Of the I3th Of December
says that the Secretary Of the Treasury has
it in contemplation to discharge all the women
in his Department, on the ground that the
experiment Of employing them has proven q
failure. This thing has been asserted before,
and denied "by authority" as we trust it will
be now. .p.t,r-Y.s .... ..,..,
As one who has watched the experiment
with deep interest from the beginning, and
made diligent enquiry concerning II, beg
leave here to assert that II 1t is failure, the
fault lies in the men toho rule the whole thing.
Woman is the weaker vessel, emphsticslly,
in this matter, and can be easily moulded
into the most excellent servants, II men 30
choose, for these places are very important
to their gaining such portion OF the worlds
"bread and butter" as Ia necessary TO their
subsistence. aa# 20 ll-r " a, .sg.a & do yqs q
In some Of the rooms Of the Treasury an
amount Of attention and labor Is required Of
them which men would not submit TO, but
women do, working In trembling anxiety
lest they should lose their places. In other
rooms less Is required Of them than II they
were men. Their wages are less because
their power Of physical endurance is taken
into account, and consequently less labor Is
exacted, which is perfectly right and In &C.
cordance with their compensation.
do not deny that there Is small class
who are Indifferent to their duties, shirking
them and boasting that they have ."infu.
ence" enough to retain their pisces in any
event, This. too, is the fault OF the high
officials who honor them with their too in'
,lulgent friendship" .si HssHH
No doubt there are defects in the "experi.
ment Of employing women In the Depart.
ments, but the remedy lies wholly with
those who are well termed the "Lords Of
Creation" and who can make Of these en.
ployees just as faithful or Just as faithlesi
workers as they please. TO the honor Of
more than one gentleman in the Treasury
II may be said, that without tyranny OF
favoritism they have secured for Govern
ment most valuable services from women
and at the same time won the grateful re,
spect Of those under their care. o, y
As rapid and careful counters the ladies
rank, as whole, higher than the same number
of men. One Secretary of the Treasury said
when 1t was proposed to dismiss twenty-foul
women from one Of the rooms and supply
their places with others, on account Of some
alledged misdemeanor, that 1.-THE services o.
these women could not be dispensed with fol
q single day without serious detriment to thu
public good" That the present Secretary
Of the Treasury intends to turn some eight
hundred ladies from work, so important tt
