Utica, influence to reduce the hours OF
labor without submitting to corresponding
reduction in wages. They wish to he paid
for eight hours day the wages OF ten hours
work. Manufacturers will not consent to lose
the time which to them is often capital, and
nav for it too. There can never be aught but
conflict between manufacturers and mechanics
ON this point as long as it is insisted upon by
the latter. They will have more time for
HIGHER culture when they are content to take
that time at their own, and not at some other
bodv,s eypense. They will succeed in es-
tablishing a system OF cooperation Wheh
thew are content to build shops
and buy tools out of their own savings, and
not the profits of manufacturers wrung from
them by demands for higher wages made by
organized bands of strikers. They tell us
that the purpose of organization is to keep up
wages from which to save enough to start CO.
lucrative factories. No individual me-
chanic would be go insane as to ask
his employer for aid IN setting up a
| rival establishment; yet this Is what
thousands of them do when organized
in Trade Unions. Naturally such an effort
falls to the ground, or results in continuous
| struggle which impoverishes the workingmen
for the benefit of few of their leaders
| Meantime the savings, or what under simpler
and more equitable scheme of cooperation
wonld he the savings of the organization, are
snent in sustaining the fight which is in
| eyitable under the present aggressive policy q
the Trade Unions.
We beg TO recommend to Mr.. Cummings and
his people. and to all Trade Unonists gener-
ollv. the more sensible defensive policy of Co.
operatiop. Out of their fair and equitable
wages let them resolve to save little, and
not attempt to force from unwilling manufac-
turers few dollars year more as fund Tor
co6neratiye purposes. They will find that
means the easiest and cheapest in the long
run. The expense of sustaining 90 strikers at
their usual average wages for five weeks Is not
less than $4,000 i'll this CITY or any Massachu-
sets town. On that sum the Cooperative
Printers of this city established a business
which has quadruped itself in three years.
1t would cost 100000 to sustain the same
strikers for five months. 1t was with less
than this amount that the Cooperative Iron
Molders of Troy established manufacturing
business employing so men the year round, and
aggregating 100000 annually. The Iron
Molders National Union, after vainly spending
81 100000 in strikes, changed its policy and
established from smaller assessments on Its
members fourteen large cooperative founderies,
all of which are in successful operation. These
are but few examples of what may be done
by the wise use of the money which the Trade
Unions have heretofore spent in maintaining
strikes that settled nothing. We heartily
recommend to the Crispins to 90 and do like

THE GERMAN-AMERICAN MOVEMENT

JHE GEEH dN-HnEhItdN lhOI I@-hi'-'i'
The movement among the COMMUNICATIONS
in favor of sharing the efforts of their trans
atlantic brethren to have the wounded soldiers
of Germany and the widows and orphans well
taken care of, has now extended over the
whole of the United States Large mass meet
ings have been reported from the States OF
New-York, New-Jersey, Rhode Island, Con-
necticut, Massachusetts, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Hi
nOis Indiana, Wisconsin, Michigan, Missouri, and
Maryland; and the majority of the other States,
though we do not remember having seen reports
of mass meetings. have probably shown an
equal amount of interest in the cause of their
common fatherland. Never before has there
been movement of such extent among
our German population. 1t is very gratifying
to learn from all quarters that the lead
ers in the movement, with great earnestness,
insist on the absolute necessity of obeylng IN
every respect the laws of the United States
From the large cities as centers the movement
spreads rapidly to the small towns and vii
lagos. Like the German newspapers, the mass
of the population appears to be remarkably
unanimous the greater or less success de-
pending chiefly on the circumstance whether
town or district has men of organizing skill
The Executive Committee of the City displays
remarkable activity. A Committee of Core
spondence consisting of Professor Schem, Dr.
Hoist Mr.. Ottendorifer, Gen. Sigel and ex-
Governor Solomon, has been instructed on
the one hand to make thorough cam
vass of the State of Ncw-York, and to
urge the holding OF meetings and the establish
ment of branch Patriotic Aid Societies in every
place which has German population, and, on
the other hand to confer with the societies of
other States as to the propriety of placing this
whole remarkable movement under one central
direction, and of making it thus the more in
fluential and effective The Committee have
on that account issued a circular, which we
publish on another page, inviting all the Ger
man Patriotic Aid Societies of the country to
meet in National Convention at Chicago on the
18th of August.
1t has been proposed in some quarters to
send over prominent German American
to Germany to look personally after faithful
execution of all the intentions of the American
society. Gen. Sigel, who enjoys a deserved
popularity with Germans of all political
parties, has been asked whether if rendered
to him, he would accept such a position,
and he is reported to have expressed readi-
ness to undertake the mission. The Stats
Zeiting of this City declares in favor of the
proposition but thinks that so important
mission should not be conferred by one single
city, but only by a National Convention.

Tie advantages which the Chinese Empire
has derived from the Buringame treaties are
again displayed by the adyiccs inst received
from PcAin. The French Government has sent
four men-of-war to Tientsin to demonstrate
against the recent Outrascs on French citizens,
and the Chinese Government has sent an en-
bassador to Paris to offer satisfaction. Under
the old relations of European Powers with
China we should doubtless have seen the
French vessels open fire on Tient>in and take
whatever vengeance could be Wreaked in that

ties have made it possible 10 settle such

OF all animals in the world, we should think
pigs least likely to recover from sun-stroke (;
but the pig of a Mr.. Featherly Of Lanesboro,'
Mimi, being thus afflicted, was cured by an
operation which we think might afford relief
to a good many members of the Democratic +"
party. Piggy's head was opened, salt was in
serted, and the animal was reserved for his
predestinatc and legitimate martyrdOm next
Fall. Now, it is certain that something is
the matter with the democratic " brain. We
do MT say that it is softening; neither do we
say that it is hardening but it appears to be
a mild decay of some kind, for which we
should suppose salt to be excellent. The
operation might kill or cure; but, whichever
the result, there would probably be no general
dissatisfaction.

II is a most unfortunate circumstance that
the place of American Minister to England
should be virtually vacant at a period in
which European affairs are as critical and
complicated as they are at the present time.
1t is reported that Mr.. Frelinghuysen has been
postponing his acceptance of the mission for
family reasons; but surely such considerations
should be quickly disposed of in view of the
interests that are at stake and the questions
that may be involved. Though Mr. Motley
nominally occupies the place till the arrival
of his successor, the circumstances in which
he is placed, and his relations with the State
Department. make it uradvisable for him to
remain any longer than the necessities OF the
case demand.

HANDS OFF.

We hoped that, with the passage of the
Georgia bill by Congress, all questions con-
corning the reconstruction of that State were
settled, and that the General Assembly, hay
ing learned from the experience of the past
two years that it is best to "let well enough
alone" would now spend its time in devising
measures to build up the material interests of
the State. There were in Washington during the
last session of Congress two parties from
Georgia, the ms" and the Outs
each striving to secure such legislation as
would promote IL own interests. The "Ins,n
burning with patriotism, no doubt, were not
only willing but anxious to add two years to
their terms of Office, and begged Congress to
so frame its bill as to make their commissions
date, not from their election, but from the adj
mission of the State, while the "Outs,',
equally patriotic, camored for the Bingham
Amendment, directing an entirely new deal in
November next. Then Congress quarreled on
the question, and there followed an almost
endless food Of debate, until the people be-
came heartily sick and tired of the very men
ton of Georgia.

COOPERATION AND THE CRISPINS.

We have had frequent occasion to condemn
much that is wrong in the practices of the
various Trade Unions of this country, and
notably those of the knights of St. Crispin of
Massachusetts, in whose defense and his own
Mr.. w. Cummings, one of their recognized
leaders. appears this morning in another col
umn. He denies having ever personally
threatened violence to the North Adams Cool
les His language, as we remember 1t, was
infammatory enough, and certainly the
demonstrations of the Crispins were at first
threatening and incendary. We have no
wish to dwell upon the fOllies or faults OF
this organization. The facts never
theless remain that its members have
not only threatened the Chinese but prescribed
the children of their brethren and their fell
low-wOrl,men not Of their organization; that
their leaders have schemed to force advances i'll
wages from the necessities Of large contracting
manufacturers, thus Matchmaking" as 1t
were, the industry whose prosperity was their
chief dependence and that they have socially
prescribed men of their trade, but not of their
organization, in the cities and towns where
numbers gave them great influence. That the
late affair at North Adams had not bloody
issue is due to the fact that the Crispin lead
ers could not wholly mslead sensible men by
inhaming their passions. That the effort to
make the COolie question politi-
cal issue ridiculously failed is due
to the fact Chat the people are not
as ignorant as politicians would have us
believe. Mr.. Cummings "admits without ques-
" tion," in lis letter, "that some of our men
"have gone too far" but it is more just to
say that the men have restrained leaders like
Mr.. Cummings, who go about planning how
to organize strikes, raising funds to support
strikers, and using the political influence of
the Order, from going too far in such prac-
tees as we have sought to expose, and which
we wish to be distinctly understood as en-
phaticllly condemning
Such have been the actual practices of the
Knights of st. Crispin ever since they became
an organized power. Mr.. Cummings tells us,
in his letter elsewhere the theory under which
they are organized. Their purpose, as there
laid down, is to secure the lessening of the
hours of labor that the men may have more time
TO seek higher culture, and the establish
ment of a system of cooperation. That the
present Trade Unions-not merely the Crispins
of Massachusetts,, but the Bricklayers the Pas-
terers, the Printers, the Carpenters in all parts
of the country-are powerful enough to ac-
cOmplish these ends we have never for q
moment doubted, but never on their present
plan of operations, for the simple reason that
its principle is wrong. They wish to
secure short hours of labor and estab-
lish cooperative establishments at the ex-
pense of their employers and not their own.
We know that each and every mechanic will
Indignantly repudiate having ever entertained
such an idea. False of them as individuals, it
il undeniably true Of their organizations.
The Trade Unions have sought by po-

on a special mission to Copenhagen, and when
he returned to Paris it was reported that
Denmark lad formed an alliance with France
against Prussia. But four or five days ago,
the Prince of Wales went also on a mission to
Copenhagen, where he saw his father-in-law,
King Christian and now it appears that Den

Prince Napoleon showed King Christian that

Formerly the Rendering Company, upon
which rests the obligation of Immediately re-
moving all dead animals from the streets OF
the city. snatched them up almost before the
breath had left them. But since the Board OF
Health made it impossible to extract profit out
of the carcasses 10y closing the nuisance-pro-
ducing rendering works at the foot of West
Tbirty-eighth-st., it curiously happens that
these carcasses are left rotting in the streets
for many hours, not only to the annoyance
but to the great peril of citizens. 1t may be
that animals are dying in such num-
bers during the hot weather that the
neglect of the Rendering Company rs
due to lack of power rather than of will to
nerform their contract; but that fact is no ex-
cuse for derelictOn that causes such instant
and manifest detriment to the public health.
The city pays literally for the removal OF all
this offa, and it is the duty OF the Board OF
Health to see that by some means all dead
animals are removed from the streets before
decomposition begins. If the Rendering Com-
pany cannot or will not perform that service
other means must be employed. The safety
Of the city demands that there must DC DC

France has stripped her every fortress and
camp for the struggle with Prussia, and 1t Is
estimated that the movements about Metz have
resulted in concentrating not less than 100000
mon on the border between the MOselle and
the Rhine. Our latest adviccs place the whole
force within few miles Of the border, the
center being in front Of SaaIlouis the principal
outpost and fortress Of the Prussians. There
is no information to indicate that the Prussians
hold the opposite side VI the frontier line in
