times the menstrual flow is too much, or too lit

We are pleased to learn from the
last issue of the Anthracite Monitor, that
Mr.. Trevellick has been doing yoman's
service in the anthracite regions OF
Pennsylvania. His speeches at St.
Clair, Ashland, and Girardville, are
highly spoken of, and We have no
doubt, but that they will be produc'
tive of a great deal of good. For some
time the leaven has been working in
that region, and we need give no more
cheering intelligence to the friends Of
the Labor Reform movement, than
that the miners Of Pennsylvania pro-
pose in future to cut themselves alooi
from the trammeIs Of partisanship, and
support the candidates only who are
in sympathy with the principles Of the
National Labor Union.

dun !; large majority Of the mechanics
of that city being content with the
offer of the bosses. Bricklayers, who
work in the sewers up to their knees in

while those who are employed on
buildings average only $500. The
wood butchers are if possible in a still
worse condition, while the Plasterers
take what's going. Altogether the pic
ture is a sad one. Won't some enter

their introduction.
