Henry Ward Beecher said in re-
cent speech: II tell you, fellow-citi-
zens, our institutions are endangered
more to-day from incorporated capital
than from all other influences. Talk
about intemperance, it is monstrous
evil. Talk about great vices. The
pulpit speaks Of infideli.y and unfaith,
and the growing tendencies Of men to
wild works of PHILOSOPHERS and opin-
ions. These are great dangers, but the
most Immediately impending after all,
Is the money power. And our liber-
ties, if they are dsstroyed-that Is to
say, il the commonwealth, after all,
becomes the engine of few, and ex-
ercises the mandate of power, it will
be through the influence of these gi-
gantic corporations and corporations
holding such money, and by. such
money, such control. I look out with
hopeful eye, and I believe that some
remedy will be found; but feel sure,
as I feel sure in the existence Of an
avenging Providence, that if things 60
on for another twenty years as they
have for the last ten, not only will
corruption go out among the common
people widely, but there will be either
reformation or revolution, for there
are influences at work that will Just
as surely breed revolution by and by,
as clouds in summer breed storms.

the stable this morning, and found
his horse down. He went, as is sup

also several years President Of Hamil-

The Baltimore American, the ques.
ton of the number of hours that

theme in which they feel no direct

work whom the work is ready
for them, and not stop until
it's done. The old rulo of "from
sunrise to sunset" would be o
glorious relief to them, and rs to
eight hours constituting q days
work, they would regard themselves
AS transformed to aheaven of bliss,
There are few persons engaged in q
newspaper office who work less
than from twelve to sixteen hours
per day.. and during the winter
season not less than ten of these
hours are by gaslight, closing at
three, four and five o'clock ia the
morning. While other people are
sleeping sonndly in their beds, the
