CINCINNATI Produce AND Provision
MARKEr-Reported by Morris & Reid
Provision Brokers. rs.-CINoINNATI, ONO,
april 20. Owing to light demand, the
market today closes little easier; that
is, holders are not anxious enough to sell
to make important concessions, when ap-
piled to, yet the tendency of the market
is favorable to buyers; but the market is
IN that state when but little more de-
mand would cause an advance in prices.

ALL Equal HERE.-It is relar-
ed of the Duke of Wellington,
that once when he remained to
take sacrament at his parish
church, very poor old man had
gone up the opposite aisle, and
reaching the communion knelt
down by the side of the Duke.
Some one--a pew-Owner probably
came and touched the poor man
on the shoulder, aud whispered
him to move further away, or rise
and wait until the Duke had re-
ceived the bread and wine. But
the eagle eye and quick ear of the
great commander caught the
meaning of that touch al d whiS.
per. He claSped the Old mans
hand, and held him toprayent him
rising, and in a reverentiaI under
tone, but most distinctly, said;
''Do not mOve-we are all equal

Who Are Benefited by Cheap
La Dor?

we received q cOmmunlcd-
ton yesterday, headed "Cheap
Labor-Who are benefited by
it ?" which, being somewhat
personal, is not published; but,
nevertheless, We shall make a
few comments in connection
| Herewith. 1t is not our belief
hat very cheap labor is desira-
able, for we find those countries,
IS a rule, where labor is cheap
est, in the worst condition.
Where labor is BEST paid, there
he people are most intelligent.
in the United States, labor has
made the country prosperous
and great. Labor in the United
States has commanded higheg
wages than in Europe, and it
will not be disputed, We appre-
bend, that the condition of Ia
| horers is better here than there.
In gland, labor has been best
paid next after the United
States. and, it may be said, that
in England the condition Of lie
people is preferable to that of
any ont of the United States.
Wages, for years past, have
ranged in different countries
about as follows: lii the United
States, the highest; in England
and Scotland, next highest in
Germany, France and Belgium,
perhaps, next; in Russia, Italy,
rand Spain, next. In half-civil-
lied countries, such, for in
stance, as Turkey, Egypt, ETC..
wages have been still lower.
But in order to reach the worst
possible condition of labor, we
must 60 to China and Japan,
for in those countries the SER
vices of laboring man COM
mand but a few cents per day.
In the United States, prior
to the war, labor ranged about
as follows, commencing with
the lowest rates and advancing
mot taking slave labor into ac-
COUNT: First, in the New Eng
| land States; next in the Middle
States; and then in the Western
and Southern States aud lastly
in California. The condition
Of labor has, as a rule, been
best off where it has been paid,
although some persons will say
that the condition Of labor is
best, all things considered, in
New England and the Middle
States. An Englishman may
say his country is the favored
one, and so with Germany and
France.
The price of labor in Califor-
MIA, if we could have our own
way, would be kept above the
rates ranging in the Atlantic
States or Europe /; and we are

Take a piece of wadding, soft and
pliable, and drop few drops Of white or
transparent polish or French polish, &C
cording to the color of the wood. Now
wrap the wettcd wadding up in piece OF
old finen, forming 1t into pad; hold the
pad by the surplus linen; touch the pad
with one or two drops OF linseed oil,
Now pass the pad gently over the parts
to be polished, working It round In small
circles, occasionally re-wetting the wad.
ding In polish, and the pad with q drop
or SO of oil. The object OF. tho oil IL
merely TO cause the pad to run over the
wood easily without sticking, therefore
as little as possible should be used, a. 1t
tends to deaden the polish to certain
extent. Where carving Is to be polished
after having been vanished, the same
process IL necessary. but II can only be
applied TO the palmer portions OF the
work. Plane surfaces must be made per.

When the polish Is first rubbed on the
wood, II Is called the 'bodying-in; !" 1t
will sink into the wood and not give
much glaze. 1t must, when dry, have
another body rubbed on, and q. third
generally finishes It.; but II not, the
operation must be repeated. Just before
the task is completed, greasy smears will
show themselves; these will disappear
by continuing the gentle rubbing without
oiling the pad. You should now be able
