PROTEST
o. the Tin Plate and Metal Wokers Of Chicago Against
the Introduction Of Their Trade Into the Illinois State
PenitentiaD.

We, the tin plate and metal workers of Chi
cage, engaged in the manufacture of metal cor
Noes, have learned that a certain firm named
Emery & CO. have entered into a contract
with the Commissioners OF the Illinois State
Penltentlary for the manufacture Of galvan-
pinnacles, window caps. and all kinds of
metal work, the same TO be done by the con
victs in the institution. After very mature
and deliberate consideration, we have CON
cluded that this, if permitted to 70 on would
have a very disastrous effect upon our trade ;
therefore, We appeal t. a generous and dis
eliminating pubic to Judge Of our appeal.
If they condemn it as unjust, We are satisfied
to abide by their decision should they deem
it Of sufficient Importance to command their
attention. we hope they will give a fair and
impartial investigation, and decide upon its
merits as becomes honest minded citizens
Our trade is comparatively in its infancy
in this city, and the demand for our labor
limited we have devoted our time and
taxed our intellect to perfect ourselves in our
calling; our wages cannot be considered
exorbitant, as they range from 81. - to
$500 per day our work is alike laborious
and hazardous and We are exposed to all
kinds Of weather The largestProportiono Of our
craft are married men. with families depending
upon us for living and society looks to Ne
to bring our children up as good end honest
citizens and perform all the obligations i'm
posed upon us by its laws and regulations
Yet We see the initiatory steps taken to de-
prive us Of the means Of making an honest
livelihood We see our trade introduced into
the Illinois State Penitentiary, and, Judging
the future by the past. ugder this
iniquitous competitive system, We shall
doubtless be compelled to compete with
coNvIcTs wages. Aye, more we. too, as
Others have done, will be compelled to walk
the streets idle, our families wanting,
whilst the work We ought T. be engaged on

CHRISTIANITY IL JArAN.-The japan Ga
-ofte prints "a translation Of "a letter which
has appeared in the native paper, Maato
NtlmttH, under the heading oisthe '' Chris
tian Religion. This letter, after discussing
the various forms of religion which have
been national in japan, concludes as fol-
lows
In various countries of the west there Is
the system of worship of the Lord of Ileaye n.
which iorhid~ the worship Of idols Of W ood
or stone.
1t teaches that which Is of daily u Sc to
men, and the tendency is toward an increas-
ingly careful observance of its precepts Its
teachers, in proclaiming its doctrine,, teach
what Is for the benefit of all, and thu silenc-
ing narrow spirit, they incite to broader
and better, which teaching is the secret OF
the civilization Of the west
Since the government of the Tenno has
been renovated, the time has come for the
abandonment of evil habits \ religion
there must be, but if Shintoi IN is proposed
we know not how to teach it. If Confuciar-
ism or Buddhism, these will not do.
IT, therefore, despi~ing the foolish charge
of changing the national customs and of de
filing the county. the religion of Jesus he
introduced, it viii be well for the peole. Nor
will such a course involve anything incom-
patible with the customs OF the country or
true reverence for oar ancestry.
Ii this religion should be tolerated il

From the Albany jour-
GcOFse william Curtis,


IMPAIRED health consequent upon over
work has arrested the pen Of George William
Curtis for several weeks past, and it is now
announced that De viii entirely suspend his
journalistic iahorS for Syme months TO come.
The public viii miss the calm. logical. per-
su-iye leaders of this accomplished writer,
and wi. hope for his early resumption. with
restored ana perfect health. OF the chair he
has So greatly adorned. Few journalists
have spoken % 80 large an audience or have
exercised so wide an infuence-not one has
more fully commanded the confidence of all
be has addressed.
Mr.. Curtis is not merely clear thinker
and a writer of singular grace and force, but
practical man of affairs. Il has been the
fashion of his political adversaries, occasion
ally shared by political friends, to describe
him as simply an idealist and rhetorician.
Nothing could DE further from the truth.
He Is. indeed, man of ideas. He has the
most elevated conceptions of political duty
and public standards lie lacks an taste for
the arts and the management of politics.
But ID it be supposed that he is not gifted
with practical wisdom and with "A ready cap
acity for everyday administration, it Is a
great mistake " recall one marked in
stance in point. Mr.. Curtis was d member
of the Constitutional Convention Of lS67-S.
The politicians of that body got into a snarl
over the language Of the preamble. None
of the trained and practical men who had
been On the bench OF In the legislative halls
were able to adjust the difficulty. Mr.. Cur
It's rose and In a few luminous and conyinc-
ing words relieved the embarrassment and
pointed the way to a basis upon which all
could harmonic. The whole Convention
recognized the wisdom OF his view and ad-
opted his suggestion. Ii was an Illustration
of practical skill, and of quick sense Of the
true relation of things
The earlier life of Mr. Curtis was given
up to literature, and the impression of him
was derived from the soft and dreamy beau
ties of his charming books Bat the stern
demands Of war reused him to higher work
lie grsped at once its mighty significance
and its commanding duty On the ro~trum
and IN the editorial chair he gave voice to its
highest appeal, and for twelve Years he has
SURRENDERED himself IN the best sense to the
service Of his country. No man has eyinced
keenr insight into the stupendous prob
lens at stake, or a -0under understanding of
the true solution. He has struck below the
surface 20 the Substance, he has looked to
realities rather than names, and has inyari-
ably aimed ar the highest ends Through
the war and through all the political con-
hIct over lis results, no trumpet has given a
clearer sound than his His influence in ed
ucating wholesome public opinion has been
iuestimab.e. and his discussions have been is
practical as they have been vigorous and far
sighted. The whole public viii join with us
m hoping that a brief season of rest may
enable him to resume with uuabated yigor
those labors which have been of so valuable
a character.

The worst summer story yet comes from
Detroit. 1t is positively given out that for
several days flies gathered in immense guam
titles about the spire of St. Paul's church
in that city. Two or three evenings ago
they flew about in such queer wav and 50
thickly crowded together that people mis-
took them for smoke, gave an alarm of fire.
and started to put the church out, but in
time discovered that this was one of the
very rare cases of smoke without fire.
