Unwillingness to Work.

The reluctance with which native
born Americans devote themselves TO
manual labor Tor living j. becoming
proverblal. Most of Us devote our time
and brains and ingenuity to a solution
u the problem how not 10 work. Thi.
condition OF affairs Is SO well stated by
one OF our exchanges, that we cannot
resist quoting the language, which is a..
follows:
1--WE ale fast becoming natisn of
schemers 10 live without work. Our
boys are not learning trades ;our farmers
sons are crowding into cities, looking
ior clerkships and post offices: hardly
enc American girl ont of a hundred will
do hou>ework for wages, however ur-
gent The need; 50 we are sending to Eu-
rope for workmen and buying OF her
artizans millions worth of products that
we ought 10 make for ourselves. Though
our crop of rascals is heavy we do not
grow our own hemp; we are oyerrun
with boys that deserve flagcllation, Vet
we impor; our own willows. Our wo-
men unless deceived. shine in Europeau
fabric; our men dress in foreign clothes ::
the toys which amusc our little children
have generally reached us from over the
seas.
We must turn over a new leaf. Our
boys and girls must be taught TO love
labor b. qualifying themselves to do it
efficiently. We must turn out fewer
professionals and more skilled artisans
a. well as food growers. We must grow
and iabricate two hundred millions
more than we now import. and So re-
duce the foreign debt that we have 50
long and 20 successfully augmented
year by year. We must qualify our
clever boys TO erect and run factories.
furnaces, rolling mills, tanneries. ma
chine shops, ETC., To open aud work
mines, improve and fashion implements
and double the present product, OF their
fathers farms. 80 shall we stem the
tide Of debt that sets steadily against
our shores, and cease TO be visited and
annoyed by hard times"

tally Destrsyed-Lsss, Sl50,oo0.

At about II o'clock last night the
Nevada Foundry, just below Silver
City. belonging to John McCone, was
discovered to be on fire, and in spite
Of the most strenuous exertions It was
totally destroyed. together with the
pattern shop adjoining. There being
no fire engines In that vicinity. very
little could be done toward checking the
flames. but the employees ofthe foundry,
assisted by neighbors and the Silver
| City people, succeeded In saving the
residence and office Of Mr.. McCone, and
also the large boarding house near BY.
The entire contents Of the foundry and
pattern shop, including the most ex-
tensive and valuable set Of tools
lathes, patterns and machinery
for the foundry business In the
State were destroyed, nothing being
saved. The fire Is supposed to have
| originated near the cupola furnace,
where a large eight ton blast had been
melted the evening previous. The
workmen quit work about z o'clock,
and no one was inside the building
| when the fire occurred. The foundry
was the best in the State. The total
loss Is estimated at $500 600. covered
by $50, 600 insurance. The stone walls
Of the building arc LEFT standing. and
Mr.. McCone informs us'that he Will at
once commence to rebuild. His nu-
merous friends sympathise with him
In his serious loss, and hope to see him
soon flourishing again as before.
