Newspapers from the antipodcs give ac-
counts of the terrible calamity which over
took one of the islands in the Asatic Arch
ipelago few months ago. 1t seems that on
the Sd of March an outburst took place from
the volcano Ruwang upon the island Ia
guandberg, which is in the Sangir group.
The volcanic eruption was accompanied by
violent seaquake. The ocean Immediate
ly rose to great height, and gigantic
wave about forty Dutch yards high sudden
~ rushed on the island, sweeping away be-
fore it human beings. cattle, horse', and
everything else. According TO one account
the number of inhabitants destroyed was
4lG. Another account says that 300persons
persisted, among whom was the Rajah OF
the island, and only three houses were left
standing. Almost all the survivors fled to
the bush. where they still were at last ac-
counts. The bodies of the dead were lying
about, making the air foul, from the want
of friendly hands to bury them. On the
18th of March the volcano again cast out
,ames and lava which destroyed most of
the cultivated lands. The wretchedness and
distress of the surviving population is great
and the need Of help pressing.

still organizing for tho purpose of lettering
their lot in life. They have witnessed the
"upper classes exercising the power of
government in defence of monopoly and
against the workingman it is not surpris-
ing that the latter should desire to initiate
the example thus set him; he has seen the
machinery Of the State used against him
he asks, Why should | not employ ii to
serve me?
The workingmcn of the United States
propose to enter the arena of politics in
order to realize whatever of good can come
to them by means of government action.
In Pennsylvania, in Ohio, in Massachu-
sets, and elsewhere they design to nomin-
ate candidates for State offices who shall be
pledged to the interests Of the labor party.
A meeting recently held at st. Louis, con-
sisting of delegates of the National Labor
Union, drew up a platform on which can
ddat for President and Vice President
are to be nominated. This shows conclu-
sively that the political arena will soon
witness the combat between capital and
labor, which philosophers have predicted
and deplored. The laborer will fight for a
greater share of the product of his arm and
the capitalists money. The struggle is one
that ought never to occur, because, which
ever side will gain the victory, it will be
purchased at too great a cost. Labor and
capital are necessary compliments to each
Others the one can do nothing without the
other and, the loss Of the one is the loss of
the other
The workingnen pretend to despise
| political economy, charging it with being
the handmade of capitalists: they should
remember that it is also the servant Of the
laborer. If there is one lesson which it
teaches more iorcibly than another, ii is
this: That the greatest productiveness of
capital and labor can only be attained
where the laborcr and the capitalist are
| joined in the same person.
The working classes may try and invent
political economy of their own, but they
will assuredly come TO recognize this, and
| that wages and the rate of interest cannot
be regulated by any law that can be de-
| vised by the most cunning legislature. We
concedc that they have just cause for being
dissatisfied with the present ordering of the
world, but they cannot improve it in the
manner they propose. When the British
Parliament tried to negotiate the rate of
wages and the rate of interest, they found
that more potent institutions existed than
even the Lords and Commons of Great
Britain. Let the past teach something,
even if it be but trifie; and let the work
ing classes recognize that in cooperation
! lies the only certain relief from their pre-

No one will MAINTAIN that the present
condition of the "laboring class s" is a
satisfactory one, or that it should not be
the object Of the W hole community to inn
prove it. 1t is admitted on all sides that
misery is still too often the lot of the work
ingman everywhere. In fact, we may
often, with good reason, doubt whether
this boosted civilization Of ours has at all
benefited the poorer portion of the human
race. In this nineteenth century we have
free schools and libaries, railways and
steamboats,, which our ancestors had not
hat we also have coal-pits and chalk quar-
ries, factories and tenement-houses, filled
with an atmosphere almost unfit to breathe,
" hich were unknown to our loreiathers.
As regard the advantages derived from the
former and the evils attendant ON the lat
ter, we may fairly balance the one against
tho other, and say that the mass Of the peO-
plo are to-day no better off than they were
in the days when Barbarossa battled
against municipal freedom in Italy, and
the English barons forced King John to
sign the Great Charter. What the worlds
progress has done for mans happiness has
been done by increasing the numbers of
the upper class of society it has dimin-
lshed the lower, but 1t has not aided them
to live better 1t is now easier to step from
the bottom of the ladder to the top, but
those unfortunates who cannot undertake
the journey are as bad of now as they were
in the "dark ages"
The ''working classes" everywhere have
become aware of their real condition, and
as consequence, they wish to improve it,

ers have been for many years past, and are

The state Department at Washington re-
ceived last spring from Ecuador "A small
quantity of cundurango together with the
most nattering testimonials Of its qualities
as specific cure for cancer, and quite an
excitement was created throughout the
country at its discovery. Hundreds Of APP
plcations for small quantities were receiv-
cd from persons afflicted, but as the supply
was very limited, the department could not
comply with these requests. Desiring,
how ever, that its merits should be fully
te sted, portions were sent to prominent
physicians in the leading cities with the re-
quest that they would give it fair trial,
and report the re suit to the department, in
order that more of it might be procured if
it should be found to possess the qualities
represented. A number of well known
physicians in various cities have already
reported to the department that they have
given the cundurango a full and fair trial.
They are Of opinion it possesses no peculiar
merits for the cure of cancer. Some eX
press the opinion that ii is of similar nature
to Virginia snake-root, but of no use forthe
cure of cancer. We have strongly suspect
ed all the while that there was huge cat
under this particular pile of meal, in the
shape of Il patent medicine man. so, now
is the time his claws should be exhibited.

LEBANON, y. H., Aug. 20, ISL.
M. Editor Among the many promis-
ing villages of New Hampshire, there are
few, if any, more attractive or more enter
prising than this. Its railroad facilities, its
water power, yet but partially improved,
and its surrounding agricultural produc-
tiveness, render it favorable centre Of
business, and its social and moral exccllen-
cies render it desirable place of residence.
1t is not, therefore, strange that its growth
is quite rapid. 1t now contains about 2000
inhabitants. About 80 new buildings were
erected last year, and the increase this year
will be still greater. The principal manu-
factory is that of hard and soft furniture,
doors, sash and blinds, by Sturtevant q
Co. This concern do large business and
turn out some of the most elegant black
walnut work done in the country. This,
with machine shop, elastic sponge factory
and mandatory of agricultural imple-
ments, employ in all about 400 hands.
Aside from these is the Mascoma Edge Tool
Co., which turns out a superior quality Of
scythes.
5. S. Houghton, Esq, well known and
tor of the Pavilion store on fremont street,
has recently purchased the hotel and the
lots and buildings on either side, at Il cost
Of s25, 900, and has already commenced
work preparatory to the erection Of splen-
did brick hotel in place of the old one.
The village has already one of the finest
town halls in the State. The citizens are
about building an iron bridge over the Mas
coma river, which runs through the village,
and contemplate bringing a supply of rum
ming water to the village, and besides its
useful applications building a fountain in
the centre of the beautiful park, which lies
in the heart of the village. With these i'm
provements there will be little left to rem
der Lebanon one of the gems of New Eng
land villages.

Just now in what is justly considered one of
the most curious and valuable inventions
of the age. The electro pneumatic safe pro-
tector, which, for ingenuity and certainty
of success, makes it one of the most Won
derful inventions of the times. 1t seems
impossible to rob a safe with this protec-
ton. The inventors have applied every
test their ingenuity could devise, and there
has never yet been failure. To make it
still more sure, if possible, the proprietors
now offer to tell any one who pa csents him
self all they know Of its operation, and then
if he will enter the safe without giving the
alarm, to forfeit $500. AMOS.
