Cooperation has not yet done much for
the operative classes in the United States.
The cooperative groceries of Connecticut
we're failures; the building associations Of
the same State proved mostly unsuccessful; /;
the efforts at cooperative distribution in the
Novelty Iron Works, in New York, came 10
nothing. One firm, however, in that city, it
appears from communication in the Lon
don Ssectator, has made remarkable and
successful experiment in this direction, to
which the attention OF all students of this
great problem should be called. The Messrs.
Brewster, carriage makers, of New York,
state that finding, as their business en-.
larged, they were necessarily more and more
thrown out OF communication and sympathy
with their employees, and that thus misun'
derstandings might arise which would lead
to strikes, and knowing that valuable busi-
ness like theirs would be greatly Injured by a
sudden strike, they resolved 10 give their
workmen permanent interest in their busi-
ness.
They resolved to pay their men the high.

certain share Of the proit, before capital or
the managers were paid, anil to put each

to what took place in the United States from
1862 to 1854, owing to the issue Of about one
thousand millions of greeDback dollars, Whlcn
at that time were not worth so much IN gold
as the seven hundred millions OF Pfusslan
thalers. The expansion from this operation
is exciting the hopes Of railroad men having
bonds for sale, that some OF the surplus capl-
tai .,,ere NAV seek investment here. From
present indications our various enterprises
will be found sufficiently extended to absorb
any amount of capital Europe may nave 10
spare.
The almost constant retirement OF queen VIC
oria from public view since the death OF Prln ce
Albert has been made the occasion OF many
uncharitable and some very absurd statements
None have been more unkind than the recent
ly extensively circulated story that retirement
was but screen for her insanity, behind
which she babbled in her paroxysms like an
idiot with the spirit of her departed husband.
It can easily be uu>. .erstood how the mind may
become morbid under the influences Of grief
and isolation, but mere retirement from the
glare of public lite, while yet surrounded by
every social influence royalty might command,
makes but poor apology tor such suspicious.
There have been several informal contradic.
tons of the story referred to OF late, and now
7e u,ve the positive assurance of the Queens
lhvsi Ian that "all reports that her Majesty
has shown any symptoms of mental weakness
are unqualifedly false" 1t is a pity that such
testimony has been deemed necessary in the
case; but since it is given, it is to be hoped
that with 1t ends the poor sensation.
