BOARDS OF CANCELLATION.
Although cooperative societies and industrial
partnerships will probably experience great eX-
tension in the future ON not prepared to believe
that they will ever supersede the present system
OF autonomy. In any case, until this Is done, aud
while 1t Is In process OF transform alton, 1t is OF
the utmost importance that by some method capl-
tai and associated labor should be brought into
kindly and harmonious relations with each other.
The need for this was 30 greatly lels In England
that four years ago q royal commission was ap-
pointed To inquire into the working Of trades
unions, and suggest improvements In the laws
concerning them, or the relations between work
men anu their employers. Tile commission con.
sisted OF ten gentlemen Of great eminence, and
was presided over by Sir William Erie, formerly
chiefjuslce. They sat for two years. and re.
ceived evidence, not only from all parts Of the
United Kingdom, but also from all quarters OF the
Industrial world. And the conclusion they came
to Is embodied In the report from which will
read the following extract:
.'The establishment Of boards OF conciation
such as those brought before US In evidence BY Mr.
Mundella and Mr. HOliins, seems to offer remedy
at once speedy, safe and simple. These boards
require no new mode OF conducting business.
They nee,l no act OF Parliament, no legal powers
or faculties. All that is needed Is that certain
representative employers and workmen should
meet at regular stated times, and amicably dis
cuss around a table the higher interests OF their
common trade or business. There IL not a trade
or business in the United Kingdom in which this
system may not at once be adopted; and we see
no reason why results should not follow from the
general establishment OF boards or Cancellation
as satisfactory as those at Nottingham and In the
Putteries. to which we have before referred.
Under such system we should look hopefully
for peaceful and prosperous future for the in
dustlfes OF this country. And II thIs commission
were to have no other result than to be the means
Of drawing attention thus polntedly to this simple
ting as Of anticipating and preventing disputes

To the Republicans of Louisiana:
The Republican Auxiliary Committee of Louisiana,
having originated in an emergency and directly
from the Republican party, deems it expedient and
proper that it should very briefly report its action
directly to the source from which it originated.
Since the organization Of this Committee, on the
sixth day Of October last, its labOrs and response
bities have been very great, for while it neither
assumed nor exercised authority in the party, its
suggestions and recommendations have been i'll
variaby followed.
1t has received voluntary contributions from Re-
publicans residing in, louisiana, to the amount of
twenty-siX Thousand and fOrty-five dollars
($26, 0i5), and has expended during the canvass
and election precisely the same amount, 1t has
sent canvassers and agents, and has printed and
sent tickets to nearly every parish in the State,
and has distributed large amount of campaign
documents The work accomplished by the COM
nit tee is well known and recognized that a more
extended report on the subject is unnecessary.
All Republicans, and especially contributors, are
invited to call at the office of the Treasurer in the
City Hall, and examine an accurate and minute &C.
count approved nv the whole committee. of all re-
ceipts and expenditures.
The committee improves this opportunity to con-
graduate the Republicans of Louisiana on the sO-
rious victory they have achieved. and to thank the
Republican party. and its individual members, for
support.

Boston rs a Beer.Drinking City.
A Boston letter, to the Chicago Journ,

A Boston letter to the Chicago Journal
says:
The official figures sent to Washington
were manufactured by the fifteen brewcries
in the third internal revenue district during
the past nine months. During the same
time last year 1872, S3l barrels were made, or
%, 2S6 barrels more this year. thus far, than
last year-an increase Of about fifty per
cent-whieh shows that the Hub is rapidly
becoming beer-drinking city. 1t is esti-
mated that Boston and its vicinity con-
s,lmes annual v not less than 450, 900 barrels
of lager and ale. There was a time when
the Boston nose elevated itself at high an
gle when mug of lager was placed near it:
but bilious Legislature forced its intro
ductiOn, and little liberal legislation in
turn encouraged its use as beverage, until
now the people have become quite TeutOn-
lied. The almost universal use of lager and
ale has demonstrated the folly of the ex-
IRENE temperance men OF Selling a person
by the throat, and telling what he shall
drink, and what he shall not drink. The
Legislature can not make the community
temperate any more than it can make
people pious at the point of the bayonet.
King Gambrinus is wOrshiped by the de-
scendants Of the Puritans. Who having no
barley to make into malt when they landed
at Plymouth, were content. and thought it
no fault to sweeten their lips with liquor
made Of pumpkins and parsnips and wal
nut chips. But they were not long in find
ing men who had '1earned the noble secret
how to BREW and as early as 1857 there
were quite number of breweries in Boston.

1t will be remembered that in 1868 Schwab

NASBY.
His Lecture in BOston-He Sasirizcs the
President.

His Lecture i'm BOston-He Satirizcs The
President.
Warrington" writing to the Springfield
Massachusetts,. Republican from Boston,
comments as follows upon Nasby's recent
lecture in that city:
Nasty lectured last night in the Frater-
nifty course, and made fearful onslaught
on the follies and vices of the community.
in politics, law, theology, trade, fashionable
life and everything else. There was IA little
too much shadow and too little light in the
picture. 1t was all satire. hut it was very
effective and very useful. Even Grant had
to take it. But he has TO take it on all
sides nowadays.
With the exception of a sensible editorial
in the 4dcertiser, the other day, I have not
seen a defense Of the President in any news
paper. except that telegraphic one that was
fixed up at Washington and sent abroad
and this was condemned and sneered at by
everybody. Perhaps the funniest thing in
the way of political criticism is the letter Of
President Woolsey and the professors of
Yale College. to Secretary Cox. These
grecnhorns seem to have taken it for granted
that everything they have read in relation
to the late unpleaSantness. from the pen of
Cox and Godkin and Nordhotf of the Erc,,,
ing Post and Henry Brooks Adams, is true.
They know nothing about the case. 1t
may be true that Grant has taken up the
McGarrahan claim; it may be true that
Grant has insisted on assessing the Office
holders, but there is not the slightest evil
dence of it-nOt a solitary particle. except
the word of certain INSCRIPTIONS Journal
lists. And the Yale people have simply
'gone off at half cock" As for the late
Secretary Of the Interior, the trouble with
him seems to have been that he had not dis
covered that he was Secretary and Grant
was President. If the President of the
United States can not send word to his Sec
rotary that he does not wish one of his nm
derstrappers in the department to sign the
Presidential name to patent until lie has
had further time to consider it, with
out rendering himself liable to long lee
ture, consisting of stale editorials Of the
New York Nation on civil service reform
it is quite time that the relations of the
President and Secretary were reviewed.. l
am afraid that Nasty has fallen little into
cant, as well as some other people How
ever, his hit at Grant was not an unfair one,
being merely an allusion to Dexter and the
stable. The lecturer painted Jim Fisk at
full length. and i'll an admirable way ais T.,
Vanderbilt, and the Woods, and apparently
had in his mind good many members of
Congress and others whom he did not name
and whom did not recognize, though, if We
are to believe the Adrertiser, the audience
were endowed with such wonderful acumen
that they recognized persons that Nasty,
perhaps. never thought of. On the whole,
the lecture was an exceedingly good one.

SURVIVORS SAVED BY THE MARY
Particulars Of the Disas.6ex

We copy the following particulars of a
salucntable disaster from the Mobile Tribune
Of Friday:
The painful intelligence reached the city
this morning that the steamer Arlington,
engaged in the lighterage business, and
owned by Mr.. j. n. HOllingsworth and Cap
tain James Alexander, was entirely de-
stroyed by fire, just below the ssake In the
bay, about Midnight last night.
There were known to be about twenty
seuls on boacd, and it is feared that all, ex-
cept James Thompson, steyedore, who. was
picked up by the New Orleans steamer
Mary, and five others, (names not known,
WhO,were packed up by the steam lighter
Effort. are either burned or dzownsd. Those
picked up by the Effort have not yet reached
the city
Captaie Thompson and Afr. J. c. Bah
cock, both well known stevedores here,
were the only passengers On board the Ar
lington. and from all the intelligence we
have been able to obtain, little hope is en-
tertaiaed for Mr.. Babcoek's safety. The
Arliasto crew consisted of tho following:
Captain William G. Lee, master: George
Lee. mate and steersman: William Kinney
first engineer; James Joiner. second en-
gineer: John Espalla, carpenter: unknown
white man, Waterman; lessee, negro cock
and steward: a negro fireman. holster and
ten deck hands. In all, crew and passen
gers, twenty-one> persons.
Tie Mary sailed around among the float
ing cotton, and saw only Captain ThOmp
| son. leaving the scene Of disaster after day
| light this morning.
The Arlington had on board 5Sl bales OF
cotton, destined as follows: Ship Resolute
| 300: ship f. G.. Scranton. l72: ship Fleet
| ford, 100; steamer Australian. 72 bales.
| How the fire originated is not known
| Captain Thompson, who was. sleeping il
| the same stateroom with Mr.. BabcOck
| was aroused from his sleep by the cry o
" fire." and on getting on deck found flames
issuing from all parts Of the boat. HI
saved himself by clinsins TO the small boat
which was either upset or swamped III thu
| launching. The last he saw Of MIR. Babcocl
| was that he threw two bales Of cotton over
| board: at later time he saw the two bale
| and Mr.. Babcock was not with them. Thu
| circumstance increases the apprehension
| for Mr.. Babcock's safety. Of the others OF
board the Inflated steamer we have N
titlinss and must therefore hope for til,
best, while we fear the worst.
! The engines were not stopped after the fiF
| broke out the heat being SO great that the,
| could not be reached. For this reason TIL
boat continued on her deadly course, ant
! to this is attributed the difficulty in gettin:
! the small boat safely launched.
The boat was insured and valued q
about $4,000 The cotton was all protected
mostly in different Offices.
Captain Thompson is very badly chafe,
by rubbing against the boat, the skin o
some portions of his legs being torn OF
! almost to the bone.
