The weakness of Lord Derby's Government Ia
apparent in the small majOrities by which they
carry provisions in the Reform bill now before
the House of Commons regarded by them as
vital to the measure from their standpoint.
Thus, on the proposal to give third member
each to the six towns with population OF over
10000 souls-viz., Manchester, Liverpool, Biz
mingham, Bristol, Sheffield and Leeds-and
which was the subject of spirited debate in
the House on the 18th inst, the Government,
who opposed the proposition, had majority OF
only eight votes, and these were obtained by a
threat of Mr.. Disraeli's that the affirmation OF
the motion might compel tho Ministry to throw
I'D the bill and appeal to the country.
The Tory party are afraid OF the
large townsville great oenters of population,
intelligence, and wealth-and the aim OF the
Government evidently is to cOunterbalance as
much as possible the concessions which have
been made relative to an extension OF tho
franchise by increasing the county representa-
ton. which means, of course, the strengthening
of the legislative power of the landed interest.
This latest victory of the Government may
possibly lead to unexpected results Mr.. Glad
stone has given notice that he will oppose such
unfairness to the large towns; and Ihe Morning
Star, in dealing with the subject says: What
eff the House should eject the Ministry and
"then pass the billf More unlikely things
"have happened"

he could not resist it. The statesman who
governs by clamor is coward. If Juarez per-
mitted this act against his better Judgment,
we have no assurance that he may not be
again controlled in great emergencies.
1t is not pleasant to speak thus of Juarez or
of a nation with which we are in sympathy.
But Mexico to-day has lost one-half of the
moral value of her triumph by shooting the
Austrian prince. At the same time we may
also see that so much as Mexico has lost we
have gained by our own generosity and mag
nanimity in the case of jefferson Davis.

Comments by The Tribune.

The material assertions in the above speci-
men of The Posts Free Trade logic are as fol-
lows:
1. That the persons engaged in producing Iron
in this country are $4,000 in number.
Q. That to pay these $4,000 persons $40 per
day each would require but s6SO,OOO per annum.
8. That we actually do pay $7S 80 per tun
more than we need pay for all the iron we re-
quire-1 10000 tuns per annum-which amounts
to over $14OOOO,OOO per annum.
Such are Free Trade facts Now let us
bring them into contrast with real facts:
The actual rates of duty charged on Iron I'M
ported into this country are as follows:

Artemus Wards Donation,

1t was telegraphed by cable few DAYS
since, that the will of the late Charles F.
Browne provided, that after the death of
his mother, to whom his property re-
verted at his death, his total forturer
should be devoted to the founding of an
asylum for decayed printers. We now
learn that the whole sum lett by Mr..
Browne is hardly more than sec, 900. This
would be hardly sufficient for the pur-
pose indicated, but it would be begin
ming, and We doubt not that others would
be found to contribute, though perhaps
hardly as literally. We have many
printers who have gained wealth and
distinction in this country, who would
gladly assist in the consumation Of the
enterprise. The Chicago Tribune makes
the following proposition:
"Wc propose that the craft in allparts
of the county, by united resolve, pro-
vide that there be retained BY the fore
man of each newspaper and printing of
tice, from the earnings of the journeyman,
a stlfn equal to five mills upon each dol
lar of his weekly bill This small tax,
of .one-half cent on the dollar, should be
paid overto local treasurer weekly, and
by him forwarded to general treasurer
to beinyested until such time as the asy-
lum fund will be available The tax is
small one to each person, but in ten
years time, if properly invested with its
earnings, would constitute fund equal
to the establishment and endowment of
an asylum equal to the demands of the
craft, and worthy of the men whose in
frmlties Of body may make them its IN
mates" a7a.
There is no question, now that the idea
has been started by the donation of Mr.
Browne, that the thing will be madea
success

Crossing the Street.

A careful observer reports that there
in common practice no less than fifty-six
different modes of managing the feet in
crossing the streets. The school boy
puts his foot down with reckless fat
footedness that splashes the mud in every
direction. He don't care He is Impress
ed with the opinion that if the Street
Commissioner don't want the mud splash'd
he onght to take it out OF his way. He
tramps through the mud on the same
principle that he would kick q football.
He rather likes to see it go. 1000, -
The school girl trips across the street
with tiptoe sprightliness that becomes
seemingly a pleasant and graceful exer-
else. She has tender regard for her
pretty shoes and white hose, and has
studied the subject thoroughly. Of all
street crossers she is the most expert.
The careful young man, with nicely
BACKED boots, engaged at some busines,
in which neatness of dress is necessity,
walks on his heels. He wishes to pre-
serve the uninterrupted sn1oothness of an
''humble individual, )" front view.
Ladies trip across quickly, discommo-
ded by long skirts which have faculty
of becoming disarranged bound across
with run, frightened and embarrassed
by the gaze of impudent masculines; step
quietly, gracefully and philosophicalIy
across the cleanest walk; or indignant
and angry wade through on general prin-
ciples. --57t
Business men give. their pants one
turn up at the bottom and sail
through thick and thin with business
like air. They console themselves with
the thought that everybody knows that
it is very muddy, everybody expects
them to be considerably dirty.
Some men who think it is boorish to
roll up trowser legs put their hands in
their pockets and elevate the extremeties
of their unrnentionables by an awkward
movement. Others accomplish the same
object by band movement, correspond
ing to the motion of ladies when they are
crossing she streets.
As the custom isn't regularly followed
the boots and pants, rear view, of said
individuals present very unsatisfactory
appearance. Crossing the street is an
art, but little understood. 1t can be
practiced under most favorable circt1n-
stances, free of charge.

Webster's Most Important Thought.


When Daniel Webster was Secretary
of State he wrote to one of the proprie-
tors of the Astor House In New York
saying that he would reach that house on
such day, and begged that some of his
friends should be invited to dine with
HIM the same evening. ~
There we're abont twenty or so at the
table, and Mr.. Webster seemed wearied
by his travel, and speaking but little, If
at all plunged into a darksome sort of
reyerie, not well calculated to enliyen hrs
friends. This at length became so apuar-
ent, and the situation of all so unpleasant
that one of the company urged upon q
very distinguished man present. warm
friend OF Webster-to get him into con-
versation. He needed to be logged to
become as lively as they wished. s,s.
This friend consented and spoke aloud
to Mr.. Webster, asking him some ques-
tons that, IN ordinary circumstances and
and with ordinary men, would have led
to conversation, but it failed in the pres
ent case. The dark Secretary of State
merely answered simply, and crept into
has cave again.
AGAIN the gentleman, frightened by his
failure, was urged to renew the attempt
to draw him out He summoned cour-
age and said; ssMr. Webster. (Mr. Web
ster looked ont of his cave,) I want You
to tell me what was the most important
thought that ever occupied your mind.n
Here was thumper for him. and so
every body thought at the table. Mr..
Webster slowly passed his hand over his
forehead, and in low tone said to .
friend near him: rs there any one mere
who does not know me 20 -
'sNo, sir, they all know you-all are
your friends ~
Then he looked over the table, and
you may imagine how the tones Of his
voice would have been on such an occar
sion, giving answer to such question.
'The most important thought that
ever occupied my mind,s said he, swas
that of my individual responsibility to
Cod" Upon which, for twenty minutes
he spoke to them there; and when he
had finished he got up from the table
and retired to his room, and they, with
out a word went into an adjacent parlor.
and when they had gathered there.
some one said, sswho ever heard of any,
thing like that 90
: What Mr.. Webster said in the adyoca-
cy OF his sublime thought, do not know.
No one has ever repeated it, and pre-
sumo no one can.

Singing.

Singing is great ''institution.' It
oils the wheel of care and supplies the
place of sunshine. A man who sin gs has
a good heart under. his shirt front. Such
man not only works more willingly, but
he works more constantly. A singing
cobbler will earn as much again money as
cordwainer who gives way to low
spirits and Indigestion. Ayaricious men
never sing The man who attacks sing
ing throws stone at the head of hilarity,
and would if he could, rob June of Its
roses and August of its meadow lark.
Singing promotes health, strengthens
the voice, the organs Of throat and lungs
and prevents or cures consumption. Sing
ing IS an excellent agent for promoting
mental hygiene.
