wages in Europe.

Sixty cents a day is considered good
wages for a working man in any of the
European countries, except Great Brit
ain, where the wages are somewhat
higher. Ia the Tyrol silk region and in
Italy they often do not get more than
ten cents. In the country in Germany
ten eents is the common pay. Women
there often get but FIVE cents. In Swe-
den, men often work from four o clock IN
the morning till nine in the evening, and
do not get any more. During the war
many poor women in Berlin were hired
to knit stockings for the soldiers for i've
cents. The profits Of the poor who keep
petty shops, sell trinkets in the street or
act as suffers, do not average more than
three or four per cent. BARRIERS in Ber-
lin, since the raising Of their prices, get
Eve cents for hair cutting and two and a
half cents for shaving. Servants at ho-
tells get from three to eight dollars a
month. Servant girls in private families
often get but ten dollars a year. Some
times these classes cannot get work at
any price.

what Love is.

That alteration which young man
gives TO a woman whom he feels TO be
greater and better than himself, is
! hardly dis.inguishable from religious
| feeling. What deep and worthy love is
not so2 whether Of woman or child, or
art or music. Our oaresses, our tender
words. our still rapture under the in
| huence Of autumn sunsets, or plllared
vistas, or calm, majestic statues, or
Beethoven symphonies, all bring with
them the consciousness that they are
ruere waves and ripples in an unfathom-
BILE ocean of love and beauty; our emo
ti,1n in its keenest moment passes from
ex preston into silence, our love at its
hig hest food rushes beyond its object,
and loses itself in the sense Of divine
mystery. Is it any weakness, pray to
be wrought on by exquisite music, to
feel its ondrous harmonies searching
the subtlest windings CT your soul, the
delicate ibers of life where no memory
can penetrate and binding together your
whole being, past and present, in one
uuspeakable vibration, melting you in
one moment with all the tenderness, all
the love that has been scattered through
the toilsome years, concentrating IN one
emotion of heroic courage or reslgna-
ton all the hard-earned lessons of self
renouncing sympathy, blending your
present Joy with past sorrow, and
your present sorrow with all your past
ioy? If not, then neither is it weak
ness to be so wrought upon by the ex-
ouisite curves of a womans cheek and
neck and arms, by the liquid depths of
her beseeching eyes, or the sweet child,
ish pout of her lips. For the beauty OF
lovely woman is like music; what can
one say more? Beauty has an express
sion and far above the one woman's soul
that it clothes, as the words of genius
have a wider meaning than the thought
that prompted them; it is more than q
woman love that moves US IN woman s
eyes; it seems to be far-oh mighty
love that has come near to US, and
made speech for itself there; the
rounded neck tho dimpled arm, move
us by something more than their pretti-
ness, by their close kinship with all we
have known Of tenderness and peace.
The noblest nature sees the most OF this
impersonal expression in beauty ut is
| needless to say that there are gentlemen
with whiskers dyed and undyed who see
none of it whatever) and for this reason
the noblest nature is often the most
blinded to the character of the one
woman's soul that the beauty clothes.
Whence, I fear, the tragedy of human
life is likely to continue for a long time
to come, in spite of mental philosophers,
who are ready with the best recipes for
avoiding all mistakes Of the kind
George Eliot.

Monongahels Gas Coat Company Of
West Virginia.

A party OF Baltimore gentlemen have
recently purchased an extensive and
valuable coal property in West Vir-
ginia, and received charter and have
been incorporated under the name OF
the "Monopgahela Gas Coal Company
The property is situated near Clarks-
burg on the Baltimore and Ohio rail-
road, three hundred and sixty miles
distant from Baltimore, and eighty-six
from Parkersburg, and contains up
wards of one thousand acres OF the
eight foot seam of coal lying in the CEN
trail liue OF axis OF the great formation
OF bituminous coal extending through
West Virginia and Pennsylvania on
the western slope of the AlleghaDies,
from which is derived most of the coal
used for the production OF gas
in the eastern cities, and the
manufacture OF coke for the use
of the iron ioundiies Of the west
The Company has been actively en-
gagged for several months in opening the
mine and making its railroad connec-
tons, and other works, as well as build
ing houses for its working people, which
they have now nearly completed, all
being OF the most improved and sub
stsniial character. The Company will
be ready for business by the beginning
OF the new year, and have a capacity OF
producing five hundred tona per day,
which they can subsequently increase.
The seam OF coal lies very tavorabiy
for economical working, being in i'm 3,
mediate proximity to the railroad and
lying above water level, affording un-
usually good facilities for drainage and
ventilation. The quality OF the coal ID
found to be of the most excellent charac-
Ter, being pure aud very free from slate
and sulphur. 1t gives a large yield OF
gas of high Illuminating power, and 1t
is also OF excellent quality for heating
aud steam purposes.
The Directors OF the Company are
Hon. II. G. Davis, Messrs. Geo j. APP"
pold, Alexander Shaw, Thos. Gemmell,
Edward Roberts, j. A. Hambletop, W.
F. Larrabee, c. j. Baker, James n.

Mr.. Gemmell has been elected Prssl-
dent and Mr.. Robinson, Secretary and
Treasurer. Mr.. John Bell, OF Lonacon-
ing, is Superintendent at the mine. -

Prospect OF q Potato Famine I'm the
Vast

The Western papers, especially these
in Illinois, are giving very disCosraging
reports Of the potato crop. One ofthem
savs:
The Colorado bug las again been
so successful ia its WIT upon this uni
versal flyorite that from all quarters q
scarcity ia announced. This causes
prices TO advance, ard to-day 10 the
principal markets OF the country q
bushe! Of potatoes cannot be purchased
or less than 81 and in Chicago a good
article commands 81 -. This places
the potato practically out OF the reach
OF the poor man. Other articles OF
food, under the Influence OF q strin-
gent money market, have declined
in price, but the potato has advanced.
The supply is yet unequal to the de-
mand. aud further advances in prices
must be expected. With polatoes a.
thirty to Il ly cents, poor families could
live con- 'Crtabiy, even with -four at So
pc: barrel and meats CT all kinds al
nigh figures but when the potato
reaches & orsl2j PER bushel, the poor
man must resort 10 scup bones and
such other cheap methods OF keeping
aoul AID holy together, "a he may be
able to discover. But II will cost him
more 20 live-snd he cannot live 50
well--iN this manner, even with prices
generally very much below those which
have prevailed several ycsrs This is
peculiarly unfortunate at this time,

Mysterious Disappearance OF eX'

Moore, started in search OF Mr.. Hayes,
went to GAINESVILLE and Zanesville, and
found that Hayes had passed both those
places and gone on further west. Go.
ing to Columbus. Mr.. Moore learned
that Mr.. Hayes hal bought a ticket
there for Chicago Dir. Moore then re-

settle bills 10 3 considerable amount,
among them the sureties on his Sher'
