AGRICULTURAL LABOR IN ENG
LAND.

A board OF commissioners were lately ap-
pointed by the English Government to inquire
into and report upon the facts connected with
labor in that kingdom. Their report has been
presented, and from it we gather the following
facts. Speaking OF Northumberland, the re-
port says:
Women are extensively employed through
sidered essential for the cultivation of the
land. The work of two women is usually
required for every seventy-fve acres OF the
light land, and larger proportion Tor that
course instead Of the fve-course system.
Their labor consists in the various opera
tions Of cleaning the land, picking stones,
wedding, &C.; turnip hoeing, haymaking and
cleaning) turnips; barn work, with the thrash
ing and winnowlng machines, filing dung
carts, turning Gung heaps, spreading dung,
and sowing artificial manure; turDip cutting in
driving carts or narrowing; IN some instances
forking (pitching) and loading hay or corn,
though when such is the case two women are
put to the work of ore man. The Northum-
brian women who do these kinds Of labor are
physically q splendid race; their strength is
such that they can vie with the men in carry
ing sacks OF corn, ana there seems to be no
work in the fields which affects them injurious
~, however narQ IL may appear. Inc un1Ver-
sal opinion and feeling is that it conduces to
health.
The dress OF these north th-country women is
admirably adapted for their work; being made
to fit easily it. does not cucumber them, and
being Of strong materials. it deies all wealth
ers. Generally it consists Of q pair of stout
boots, o very short thick woollen petticoat,
warm stockings. jacket, &C.; over all q wash
ing pinafore with sleeves (called q sllp), which
preserves their dress from the dirt. Their
faces are protected by o shade or s'ugly" Of di-
vers colors.
Children seldom, if ever. go to work in the
Glendale Union before eleven or twelve years
Of age, and then merely tor summer work.
Their employment is hoeing potatoes aud corn,
pss esssted hs st
by making bands, &C., wedding and picking up
stones,
