TIE HrcH FARCE OF IMPEACHMENT
Macaalay, in his essay on the life of
Warren Hastings, says of impeachment
in general:
In truth. it is impossible to deny
that Impeachment, though it is fine
ceremony, and though it may have been
useful in the seventeenth century, is
not a proceeding from which much good
can becxpected. Whatever confidence
may be placed in the decisions Of the
Peers on an appeal arising out OF ordi-
nary litigation, ii is certain that noman
has the least confidence in their inn
partially, when great public fanc-
tioHary, charged with great crime,
is brought to their bar. They are all
politicians. There is hardly one among
them whose vote on impeachment
may not be confidently predicted before
a witness has been examined.
How applicable to the present i'm
parchment trial at Washington I? "

CHILDREN IN EAsTERN FACTORIES.
It is the nineteenth century, what
ever facts in our progress may seem to
be ofthe ninth or before. New England
claims to be a source and centre ofmod-
ern civilization, and Massachusetts its
chief reservoir. But in that boasting
State are too often found indications Of
barbarism and cruelty to chill the blood,
At the disclosures of the last two years
in some Of its charitable and reformato-
ny institutions, humanity almost stands
aghast. An ancient river was said to
sink in the sands of one country, and,
flowing on I'M its hidden channel, APP
peared at length in another far distant
country. Did the bloody stream OF
slavery sink in the Carolinas and Mis-
sissippi, to gush up with almost equal
horrors in Massachusetts,? The State
has law thatprohibits the employment
of children in factories under the age of
ten years. Children so employed be-
tween the ages of ten and fifteen must
have had at least three months school
ing during the year next preceding
their employment. Such children are
not to be employed more than sixty
hours in one week. How far the law
is observed appears from the report re-

Fall River he found one thousand chill
dren employed in factories, mostly of
foreign parentage, in a generally low
condition, ignorant in many cases of
their own ages, earning very low wages,
and deprived in great part or altogether
of the school privilege that the law
requires. To. illustrate the spirit OF
some of the employers, the officer In
auired of the agent of one of the principal
factories, whether it was the custom 10
do anything for the physical, intellectual,
or moral welfare of the work people.
The answer would not have been out OF
place in the master of plantations, or
the captain of coolie ship: ave never

Another agent, in another part of the

He promised that his Government wouid introduce

treaties which had been made with foreign powers,
he particularly alluded to the important one just
concluded with the United States, which he said
was designed to define and regulate the nationality
and consequent national obligations of the emgrants
of Germany and America.iThis treaty would destroy
sl seeds of dissension between the two countries,
and knit more closely together nations already al
