In connection with political affairs, we may
state that never was the country at greater
peace than it is at present; labour is willing,
and everybody looks to the daily advancement
which betokens a hopeful future for Jamaica.
There is not a stranger on the soil but is well
come; and has all encouragement to induce
his countrymen to follow. The policy ofthe
country is to tempt immigration of a class that
will not only benefit itself but those who may
come after. This is peculiarly a country for
settlers.
THE JAMAICA ASSOCIATION.
This Association has been engaged in inveS-
legations into the working of several public de-
partments, among them, the condition of the
public Records as illustrated by the appear
ances of the books and papers in office of the
Clerk of. the Court, in the Kingston Court
House, where the only keepers of them are the
rats and mice several of the papers being evil
IDENTIFY eaten by vermin. All history of past
insolvents is being destroyed, and there will
soon be difficulty in ascertaining the transmits
sion OF interests in real property by ~insolven-
cy.
Inc conullOn OF the irrigation Works Is also
having their attention. It is argued that
American Engineers are the best and the cheap
est for works ofthis description, and that Lord
Mayo, in a despatch to the Indian Office,
brought this forcibly before the then Secretary
Of State for India, shelving that they do their
work quicker and with infinitely less money.
This has been exemplifed in California where
Gtew gears ago land aoas almost 5o1thout vaTue,
but @0w as c00ered nth fields Of aoAeat at ta6u-
I0as prices, The change being brought about by

Memorials are now before the Governor for
a revision of the tariff, to admit raw material
upon a lower scale of duty, and other articles
which help the industrial progress of the peo-
ple' now depressed by the duties which prac.
ticaIIy protect foreign manufactures against ia
maica tradesmen.
PUBLIC ADJUSTMENTS.
The Theatre Royal continues a great source
of public attraction. Mr.. w. NJ. Holland and
Miss Fife Johns have been drawing large and
delightful audiences. Among their most sue
cessful pieces have been-Hamlet, Richard III,
Rjchelieu, East Lynne and Enoch Arden.

MIS- US.
(Fr0m the Spectator)

The arrest OF Count Arnim has called
out remarks in the German Parliament.
The Government has recently imprisoned
three Socialist" Members of Parliament.
and is prosecuting Editors on all sides,
generally tor translating articles from
foreign papers, and, as Herr Windhorst
put 1t, the area of arrest has been widened.
until it may some day include a National
Liberal. Herr LasNer, chief of that par
ty, though deprecating %alIusion to a case
under trial, still lamented the want Of q
preliminary public inquiry as a blot on
the German criminal system; but the
majority appear to have been little moved,
though the Members imprisoned were
being punished for speeches within the
Reichstag. As for Prince Bismarck, he
declared that the only cause of the null
tiplication of arrests was the growing
irreverence for law, especially among the
classes which ought to show it most
respect. He was not afraid of the dis
c%ussion. It is clear from the attitude
of the German Parliament that he need
not be, even if he arrests and imprisons
half the Members and all the Editors in
Germany. The Liberals will bear any,
thing rather than vote against a man who
has given them military ascendancy in
Europe, and hold liberty, even for them
selves, unimportant, compared with State
prestige. Imagine the House of Com.
mons afraid to inquire why Mr.. Disraeli
had prosecuted Mr.. Peter Taylor for
words spoken in the House, and we
have the situation.
The Government of Germany has given
way about the National Bank. It is to
be a German, and not a Prussian one. A
Bill with that object is to be preparedA
after the consent of the separate Parlia-
ment of Prussia has been obtained-and
laid before the Federal Council. 1t is sus-.
peeted from the complete amenity with

AGRICULTURAL AFFAIRS.
Mr.. Burton is pushing forward the patent of
Colonel Stewart for the manufacture of sugar
by the application of sulphurous gas, and those
interested in the establishment of Central Fac
tories in Jamaica are likely TO adopt the sys-
tenn. A gentleman Of large experience in st.
Lucia has written US on this subject, and closing
his letter, says: II observe Mr. Burton, an
old friend of mine, is now in your island trying
to get up a usine. There can be no doubt but
that it will pay if there are plenty of canes and
it is we'll managed"
Large quantities of machinery are arriving at
the different outports o" the island for the m

The Brave brady.

1t will lie remembered by our readers
that after the wreck of the Inflated steam
ship Atlantic, Brady, the third officer and
Speakman, quartermaster, distinguished
themselves in efforts to save the lives Of
the passengers. II was Brady and Speak
man who carried the lifeline from the ship
TO Golden Rule rock, swimming through
the cold and darkness from the vessel. 1t
was Brady who, after Golden Rule rock
was crowded with the living, rescued from
tho ship, who wrapped n rope around his
chest and swan through the fearful break
ers from Golden Rule rock TO Meagher's
Island, and thus established line Of escape
from tho vessel to the shore. and now the
heroic Brady turns up in the late disaster
to the steamship Pennsylvania It seems
that Captain Brady was returning from
Liverpool, as passenger, and after all her
officers were lost or disabled, the vessel was
placed in charge Of Captain Brady, and
under his command was brought safely into
port.
Brady, Spcakman, and Owens were real
heroes, in the dreadful massacre Of the At
lan,ic; and the stuff that is in them will
make men whose names will 90 down in
history.

..uEADEH OF FEE HOUSE"

1t is said that public opinion in Wash
ington is agreed that Mr.. Dawes will he the
successor of Charles Sumner in the Senate.
With this opinion naturally comes the con-
sheraton of the question of the chairman
ship of the committee on ways and means.
I, may be stated that, heretofore the chair
man Of that committee has been looked
upon as the leader of the House, or OF his
party therein and it has generally So hap
pcned that the character, standing and abil-
tiles Of the individual occupying that po-
siton have been such that the party and
country have willingly accorded him the
leadership. With this branch of the sue
censorship, there is fact with which the
country arc not so well acquainted. 1t has
been understood that the Speaker of the
House appointed the chairman rs well as
The committee That is, that the frs, person
named was necessarily chairman. This is
not So. Each committee has thc right to
clcc, It's own chairman, hut it is right not
often exercised in fact, there are very few
Instances OF il IN our history. We are
-pelkin., OF course, of tn House in the
senate it is different, the standing or usual
committees, aud their chairman, are elect
ell not appointed The speaker will, there
fore, only have to appoint an additional
member of the committee, should MI
Dawes go into the Senate, and the com
mittcc can accept Mr.. Kelley of Pennsyl-
vania, the next ON the list as chairman, or
eject one to suit themselves, as they may
sec fit. They will, probably, take the
latter coursc,as Mr.. Kelcy's financial views
arc not understood to be IN accord with the
majority Of the House, the committee or
the party. and there il, moreover, a little
faint of Credit Mobiler' about him. The
committee may, however, it being rather q
delicate question, conclude to consider. in
the event named, Mr.. Kelley a. chairman.
the craftsmanship in reality, aside from tie
leadership of the House, being a matter Of
no consequence. 1t is, moreover, not by
any means necessary that the chairman of
this particular committee should assume
the leadership of his party, OF be looked up
on as occupying that position. 1t is nothing
but custom borrowed from England,
under which the individual holding a ccr-
tain cabinet Office, as VIC would call it,
being at the same time a member Of par.
lament, was considered, and in fact was
the lea Ter of the government-that s'thc
exponent and defender of the measures OF
the ministry-in the House OF Commons.
To those familiar with the recent political
history of Great Britain. 1t is unnecessary
to say that Gladstone, and some others,
when in power, have been premiers and
leaders of the House, no matter what Office
he, or they might hold. With us the Sec
rotary of state is premier, and is entirely
disconnected with Congress. With Kelley,
whether or not he is accepted as chairman
of the committee on ways and means, it
may be taken, as certain that he will
not, in any sense, be the ''leadcr of tie
House."

Locomotive Engineers.

The members of the New York division
OF the Brotherhood of Locomotive En-
gineers say, in explanation Of the recent
action OF the national body in deposing the
grand chief of the order, Charles Wilson,
that he has held his position for several
years past, but that for long time the
Brotherhood have been perfectly satisfied
with what he did and sail with regard to
their interests. Some time since he began
to quarrel with the president of the United
American Machinists and Blacksmiths or
ganization, who are Immediately connected
with tho railroad interests 1t was the
wish Of the president of this latter society
to amalgamatc with the locomotive en-.
ginecrs, but this MIR. Wilson opposed.
He was also appointed TO superintend the
Ronthy Joa'nol, which i: supported by
the members Of the Brotherhood. He
wanted to make use Of its columns in de-
tense of himself or in attacking his oppo-
nonts, which the brotherhood refused to
allow. His declaration to the public that
several strikes were unauthorized caused
general dissatisfaction particularly in the
case Of the recent strike in Pennsylvania,
and the executive committee of the order,
at a recent meeting in Cleveland, asked
him TO resign. Mr.. Macarthur, of Roches-
ter, has been appointed Grand Chief in his
place A card has been issued by Wilson,
the ex-Grand Chief, severely critcising the
action of The committee, 1t is claimed by
the members of the New York division of
the order that the policy adopted by the
order disapproves of strikes but aims to
adjust differences with employers by con-
ference and arbitration.
