The English working classes form the
subject of an interesting work recently
published in England from whic h we gath
er some valuable information as to the en-
ployments of the English people. 1t ap-
pears that there are 100000 employ ed in
England in the general and local govern
ment and defence of the country. Of this
number all but 5000 are men,. About 49,
600 are dockyard laborers, 11.000 postmen,
$1,000 policemen. Nearly all the others
are soldiers or sailors, and the annual in
come of the whole class amounts to $50,-
600. In addition to these there are l,700,-
900 domestic servants, nearly all of them
women. whose yearly wages amount to
$4,000, 900, including the cost of their sus-
tenance. There are 100000 persons en-
gagged in the conveyance of men, animals.

New YoRK is trying oncrete pavements,
and one is being laid aero So the City Hall
Park. The first layer is coarse gravel.
This Is followed with alayer of coarse
gravel and sharp sand, mixed thoroughly
with pine tar. Its durability is said to
equal that of stone; it is always level and
smooth, never cracks, and is,not affected
| by change OF temperature, or by frost, or
washed away by heavy rains. This con-
crete has recently been laid in Brooklyn
for private walks and carriage-w ways, and
gives the highest satisfaction, and a con-
| tract has just been made to lay it through
the entire tracklof a horse railroad in that
city. In Syracuse thirty miles of sidewalk
are laid with it.. 1t costs about fifteen cents
a square foot, bout half the price of ord
mary tagging. in New York. A walk was
a;year ago laid across the City Hall Park
of concrete, and this, the Neso York Ecsn-
ing Post says. is as hard as stone and i'm
pervious to water at the present time.

the Napoleon Northeast it will be seen that
Hon. James G. Haly declines the nomfna-

Convention which met in that place on the
lst inst. We regret that the private affairs
of Mr.. Haly should compel him to this

he is sound upon the issues of the day, and
possessed with craftsmanship that will
be needed in the coming State Legislature.

{
AMEoHANIcs' Industrial Fair, it is re-
ported, is to be held in New York in the
spring of next year. This fair will be
somewhat in the nature of our Franklin
Institute exhibitions OF former years, and
the origfnators of the New York enter
prise, it is said, propose to inaugurate q
new system in the projected exhibition, by
which the mechanics and inventors will
be enabled to exhibit the products Of their
ingenuity and industry, instead of the cap
italists and proprietors who have hereto
fore been allowed the main chance as ex-
hibitots, Circulars inviting participation
are to be sent to sniechanfcs in all parts of
the country, asking them to send such ar:
ticles and objects of their skill as they may
feel disposed to manufacture. The object
lot the exhibition is to aid inventors and
others who have not the pecuniafy means
themselves to, bring their Inventions and
discoveries prominently before the public,i
so that both the world and the inventor
shall reap advantages from excellent ideas
which are now buried.

I GENTLEMEN-The delegates from this

one of the candidates of the Democracy
for the Office of State Senator. 1 .is4
/, While consider the nomination thus
rendered me as. the highest compliment i
could possibly receive. coming, as it does,
from the lion hearted Democracy of the
six counties com posing this Senatorial Dis
trict, am, nevertheless, compelled to de-
cline the nomination. 4-s,, s,rt
Prior engagements requiring my absence
from the District, the greater portion of
the month of September, will prevent me
from giving such attention to the canvass
as will be required in. this District to ensure
success; and all that is wanting to make
success loubly sure, not only in this Dis
trict but, ,throughoutth State, is to adopt
such measures as will enable the masses OF
the people to see the IcOnditioniin which
they have been placed by the leaders of the
Radical party and the shameless corr9p-
tions of villaihies of the conspirators and
disunionists who now infest IShe city of
Washington. and call themselves the Con-
l,gress of the United States. ok

tcome so great that its leaders fear to trust

their only hope to fasten mOnied aristoc-
raey on the country that shall forever ex-
empt from taxation, and to protect and
foster the shoddy lords of New England
at the expense of the farmer, mechanic and

i ignorance and credullty of the recently
emancipated slaves of the South, now be-

that tue object of the enfranchisement oi

of the Foreign vote, which is to be found tol

While this is undoubtedly one of the ends
sought to be accomplished, the great ain
and design of the leaders is, to so demoral

blacks, as, to produce in the end a violation

Bible Cause i'm Indiana-Year Ending
March 81, 1861.

We have received a circular from
the agent of the American Bible So
ciety for Indiana, giving a detailed
statement of its operations for the
year ending on the 31st of March last,
with a request to publish the same.
Its great length prevents US from COM
plying with the request, but we make
room for the following extract from
the circular:
By a careful perusal of this our
second annual report, it will be seen
that the Bible cause is advancing in
portant work, and it commends itself
to all Christians and to all ~philanthro-
pists. The cities of Indianapolis,
Evansville, Lafayette, Terre Haute
and Lapolte have been canvassed with
very satisfactory results, while a large
number of counties have been ex-
plored with equally good results. The
whole amount raised In State. and
paid to the American Bible Society.
after defraying the expenses OF agency
and incidentals, is a little over s22-
600, which shows a falling off from
the previous year of $1,000. This is
in consequence of the money pressuro,
and the loss of two wheat crops III
succession, with other causes which
contributed to diminish the receipts;
we hope, however, the present year
viii be one of success, and that IL
large increase will be the result OF
hard toll for our great work.
We commence another year with
1913 auxiliary Bible Societies and 425
Branch Societies; total 548 Bible So
cieties in our State; 300 persons who
sustain official relations to these So
