The Condition of Mechanics and
IabOrerS In England

The condition of the working
/ classes in England has becomeaso
low and degraded, that the attsn-
ton Ofthoughtful men of all shades
of opinion is attracted to it; and it
Is a serious question to know what
remedy to apply to save.a vast
population from sinking to a depth
of corruption and misery unparallel-
ed in the history of modern eiviliza-
ton. Aplan has been proposed bf
Mr.. Scott Russell, the architect of
the Crystal Palace, the Great East
eTn, and other large works, to
form two committees,-'' a council
Of skilled workmen" and "a council
OF legislators,-to whom shall be
referred the discussion of the whole
question, and the suggestion of the
proper remedies. d.. ---..--... ...-....
Mr.. Russell says: "While there is
no finer breed of working men in
the world than the British skilled
workman, there is no civilized
country in which his interests are SO
lit c cared for, and in which the in
stitutions, laws, and customs are so
unfaVorable to his material we'll
being and to his moral develop-
ment." This is pretty strong Ian
guage, but 1t apears to be confirmed
by the observation of other, re-
formers. As the result of careful
inquiry among wOrkmen, and ex-
tensive visitation Of manufactures
and dwellings, both in England and
on the continent, the chief evils to
be remedied were classified under
the following seven heads:-
e. L. The want of family homes,
clean, wholesome, and decent,
places, so as to receive a fuIlsupply
ofpure air and sunshine. .-.-.- -. =.
z. The want of an organized sup
ply ofwholesome, nutritious, cheap
3. The want of leisure for the
duties and recreations of family
life, for instruction, and for social
duties. ~ s.ss-rr-- -..E
4. The want of organized local
government, to secure the we'll
being OF the inhabitants of villages,
towns, counties, and cities. .---
3: The want ofsystematic, organ
lied teaching, to every skilled
workman, of the scientific prac-
tice of his trade.
6. The want of public parks,
buildings, and institutions for in
nocent, instructive, and improving
recreation.
Z. The want of adequate organiza-
ton of the public service for the
common good.

The RELIGIOUS INFLUENCE OF Ma
TURE.-The grand objects In nature
perpetually constrain men to think
of their Author. The Alps are the
great altar of Europe; the nocturnal
sky has been to mankind the dome
of temple, starred all over with ad-
nonitions to reverence, trust, and
love. The Scriptures for mankind
are writ IN earth aud heaven. Even
now, we say, can undevout astron-
omer is mad" What a religious
mosaic is the surface of the earth,
green with vegetable beauty, aui-
mated with such swarms of life. No
organ or pope's miserere touches
my heart like the sonorous swell of
the sea, and the oceans wave un-
measurable laugh. To me, the
works of men who report the as
poets ofnature, like Humboldt, and
of such as Newton and Laplace, who
melt away the facts and leave only
the laws, the forces of nature, the
ideas and ghosts of things, are like
tales of pilgrimage to the Holy
Land, or poetical biographies Of a
saint; they stir religious feelings
and I commune with the Infinite
Theodore Parker.

Table Conversation.

A great deal of character is i'm
parted and received at the table.
Parents too often forget this; and,
therefore, instead of swallowing
your food in sullen silence, instead
Of brooding over your business,
instead of severely talking about
others, let the conversation at the
table be genial, kind, sociable and
cheering. Do not bring disagreea-
BILE things to the table in your con-
versatiOn any more than in dishes.
For this reason, too, the more good
company you have at your table,
the better for your children. Every
conversation with your company
at your table is an educator of the
family. Hence the intelligence
and refinement and the appro-
pirate behavior of family which
is given to hospitality. Never
feel that intelligent visitors can be
anything but blessing to you and
yours. How few have fully got
ten hold of the fact that company
and conversation are no small part
of education.

Etiquette in Time Of Louis XIV.

The following illustration is given
of etiquette, in time of Louis XIV;
In the Queens apartment there
were two chambers. One day the
Queen saw a speck of dust on her
bed and showed it to the Ma
dame de Luynes, her maid of honor.
The latter sent for the U1let de cham
bre, bed-maker to the Queen, that
he might show to the Uaiet de cham
bre, bed-maker to the King. The
latter arrived at the end of an hour,
but said that the dust was none Of
his business, because the bed-makers
of the King made by the common
bed of the Queen, but were oIbid-
den to touch the state bed. Con-
sequently, the dust must be removed
by the officers of the household.
The Queen gave orders that thew
should be sent for, and every day
for two months she asked If the
dust had been brushed of, but they
had nots yet found out whose duty
it was to remove the speck. Final
ly the Queen took up a feather dus-
ter and brushed it of. Great was
the scandal thereof, but no one
dreamed OF blaming the absence of
the officers they only found that
the Queen had baen wanting in eti-
quette. +"

TENDER BEEF is very nice baked
with or without dressing should be
baked slowly, basted occasionally,
and if not cOOkedUoo long, will be
tender and juicy. Tough beef can
be made tender by boiling let the
water boil before putting it in, and
when nearly tender enough, let the
water boil out, and the meat fry In
the gravy. A.teaspoonful of saleratus
put IN the water when the meat is
put IN, will make it cook In consid-
erably less time.

"Kesp the Gate Shut. .


An English farmer was one day al
work in his fields. when he sag q
party cf hunters riding about his
farm. He had one feI3 that be
was specially anxious they should
not ride overs as the crop was in Il
condition to be badly injured by
the tramp of the horses. So he
dispatched one of his workmen to
the field, telling him to shut the gate,
and then keep watch over it, and on
no accout to suffer it to be opened.
The boy went as he was bidden, but
was scar cely at his post before the
hunters came up, peremptorily or
dered the gate to be opened. This
the boy declined TO do, stating the
orders be had received, and his de-
termination not to disobey them.
Threats and bribes were offered
alike In vain, one after another
came forward as spokesman but all
with the same result the boy re-
mained immoyable in the determi-
nation not to open the gate. After
a while, one ofnoble presence ad-
van9ed, and said IN commanding
tones My boy do you know me?
l am the Duke of Wellington, one
not accustomed to be disobeyed :;
and I command you to open that
gate, that I and my friends may
pass through. The boy lifted his
cap, and stood uncovered before the
man whom all England delighted to
homer, then answered firmly: "I
am sure the Duke of Wellington
would not wish to disobey orders.
I must keep this gate shut, nor suf-
fer any one to pass but with my
masters express permission.
Greatly pleased the sturdy CID
warrior lifted his own hat, and said;
" I homer the man or boy who can
neither be bribed nor FREE ghtened in
to doing wrong. With an army of
such soldiers 1 could conquer not
only the French but the world. "
And handing the boy a gittering
sovereign, the old duke put spurs to
his horse and galloped off away,
while the boy ran off to his work,
shouting at the top of his voice /;
" Hurrah, hurrah I've done what
Napoleon couldn't do-Iv'e kept
out the Duke of Wellington.
Every boy is a gate-keeper, and
his Masters command is. "Be thou
faithful unto death. Are you
tempted to drink, to smoke
or chew tobacco? Keep the gate
of your mouth fast closed, and al
low no evil company to enter.
When evil companions would coun-
sci you to break the Sabbath, to lie,
to deal falsely, to disobey your pa
rents, keep the gate of you ears fast
shut against such enticements; and
when the bold blasphemer would
instil doubts of the great truths of
revelation, then keep the door of
your heart locked and barred
against his infamous suggestions,
remembering that it is only
the fool who "hath said in his heart,
there is no God. "-CbTiStiaIl Weekly.
