CAN they agree? Are the interests
of mechanics and laborers identical
with those of the farmers and agri-
culturists The BEE has long since
expressed its doubts on this score,
ana now the practical evidence Of
the soundness of our conclusions
comes to US from Illinois.
About three weeks ago q conven-
ton Of farmers and workingmen
was held at Springfield, to put up a
platform and nominate a ticket.
The alliance madea at Springfield has
however been of short duration.
The workIngmen of Illinois have
publicly severed their connection
with the movement. The Chicago
Tribune of the 18th explains the
situation by stating that "the work
ingmen care very much more about
what they believe to be their rights
than about any little matter of
gratitude. They complain that no
concessions were made to them in
the Springfield Convention, and
that nothing more is wanted of
them than steady and industrious
voting"

n
Two or three weeks ago, says the Detroit Free
Press, very quiet and very solemn boy, about
ten years old, took seat ON the wharf at the
foot of Grswold street, and began to fish.
There are mayhap, fish at the foot of Griswod
street, but probably man or boy might fish
there ten thousand years and never get bite,
because those iish-if any there be that frequent
that locality have had their eye teeth cut and
know their business Steamers and boats are
passing, men shouting, and diays rolling, and
the fish have a great deal to think of. But this
hoy didn't look into the case. He may have
heard theories and speculations but he kept
them to himself, and went on fishing. Mon ask
Cd him if he had not bite, and the boys told
him to be careful and not exhaust the supply,
but for four or five hours per day
he rat there and llshed, unmindful OF what
Was said or done. He pulled up tho line once in
q while, surveyed the bit of meat on the hook,
saw that it was all there, and then the hook
went down again to wait for sturgeon. At last
the boys perseverance and patience excited gem
rrnl notice. and men said ii was too bad that he
didn't get any fish Saturday afternoon three
OF four individuals planned to call him away
from his line for moment and while he was
zone one of them fasteneda big dried herring
10 the hook. The boy returned and resumed
lis fishing, and finally he hauled up and saw
tic herring. lie was too astonished to speak for
70 time. but he finally unlocked the fish, laid it
aside put piece of scrap-iron on it to keep il
from escaping, and was as solemn az ever. Ono
of the men felt piqued at the boys lack of en-
thisinsm and stepping forward, he said well,
hab had any luck?" Zone herring replied
tue boy in solemn tones. "And what do you
nAuect to catch now 2? continued the man. The
lad waited long time before answering, and
then mounfully glancng at the herring. he
replied "Crackers and cheese to go with him ~
