The Hard Times.

The hard times, says the New York
Tribune, have now lasted two full years.
The extreme point Of depression may or
may not have been reached. There is
no infallible test. Former experience
teaches that the process OF recovery is
not rapid one, but iu the nature Of
things its commencement cannot be long
delayed. England is the country which
most nearly resembles the United States
in its methods OF business and its bank
ing system. In England during the last
ninety years there have been seven or
eight periods Of strongly marked depres.
sion in business, such rs that through
which We are passing. In no case, how
ever, has tho extreme inaction listed
three full years. By the end Of the
third year the exports md imports, the
revenues of the government, and the
rate OF interest have invariably begun TO
mark some improvement. All the &c.
cepted authorities Oh the subject Of
commercial crises have treated them as
reactions following MI excess OF specula-
ton. Speculation carries the prices oi
houses and lots, goods, bonds, railroad
stocks or other commodities, to level
at which they cannot DO sustained, and
the resulting fall is in proportion TO the
extent Of tho previous speculations and
the abuses Of credit by which they have
been attended. An abuse Of credittaket
place where, for instance, II farmer part'
with his grain for a worthless railroad
mortgage, or other security, or whsrt
he Is the victim OF bad debts.

Oyer.DrcSsed Women.

nm convinced, says n newspaper
correspondent, that there will come n
time when man will rise and assert his
preference for plainly dressed women.
He is Just now ground into the dust
with the tyranny of over'dress. It an
noys him to think that the soul.harrow'
ing skirts and sense-withering bonnets
are sent out by the importers to be cx'
hibitcd, and that the goddess who night
ly gathers her laurels from mankind is
ouly touting for dry goods firm.
Plainlydrcsscd does not mean shabbily
or inclogantly dressed; by no means.
1t means, l think, appropriately dressed.
It is opposed to too.much and too-oftel
dressed. A richly attired lady is ono OF
tho abiding Incentives to virtue and rc'
spcct. A tawdry and aashily dressed
woman is a standing menace to respecta
bility.
Aud hero let me say that the church
llas attempted this advertising business
I am told by New York milliner thai
those peerless ladies' who appear in the
sanctuary ever Sunday i'll new honncts
have them supplied regularly and gra'
tuitously by uptown houses. Iht

Waiting Dinner.

Nothing is more trying to the mistress
OF house in any grade Of life tlian to be
compelled to swat dinner" for the
convenience Of tardy guests, to say
nothing Of the discomfort inflicted on
other visitors. The busy people Of the
world arc punctual people; the man
whose every moment is worth money to
himself and tho others always manages
to bo in time. II is hard that such per.
sons rs these should be compelled to
waste n long time in waiting dinner for
tho arrival OF some man or woman
whose unpunctuality is merely tho result
Of an impertinent want Of forethought.
The proper mode Of treating such per.
sons would bc to ignore them altogether.
II, when tho dinner hour arrived, dinner
were served, and the drawlers were COM
PEELED by their late arrival either to go
without dinner or to sit down in the
middle OF the feast-nO bringing back OF
earlier dishes allowed-this evil Of care
less lateness would soon be rcmedied.
$50 sorry to be late." ought to be met
by $50 sorry wo couldn't whit, but glad
to have you join us at this stage" II
ladies' would take this matter in their
own hands, the habit OF late arrival,
which is positive social nuisance,
would soon be cured.

Female Labor in England.

Lord Shaftesbury calls attention to
the recently issued report Of the iuspec'
tors OF factories, and 10 the painful in
formation which it contains on the sub.
ject OF female labor in the "black coun,
try" or in "the nail and chain district.
From both the nail and chain trades
there are, he says, "Strong representa-.
tons made against the labor OF women,
whether ms to numbers employed, or the
size OF the articles made. The women
take the place Of fathers and husbands,
while the men are idle mud drunk" The
root OF the evil in the "black country
appears to be drunkenness; no matter
whether the drinker be puddler, collier.
chain or nail maker. The outcry against
the cOlliers' md puddlers' wives working
is very great not perhaps 30 much from
their influx into tho trnde, but from the
fact that they work night aud day, toll
and slave, aud not for the price that
straightforward masters would give, but
for any price any crafty knave OF mas
ter chooses to offer. In tho meantime
the husband is in some public.housc, Mt
his ease, aud trimming his "whitfet" for
some future running on beefsteaks and
the best OF good fare.
Nor is it only in the ball and chain
trade that the practice OF husbands liv-
ing on their wives labor prevails. A
young woman, addressing one OF the in
spectors, said: ~ say, master, I wish
you would make my man do n little more
work, and me less. 1 married swell, I
did," To the inquiry what she meant
by swell, the reply was: " Why, when
I married him in the morning he had n
smart gold witch mud chain, and smart
dickey, but when we came to 60 to bed
at night I'm blessed il he had Gro shirt
on, and ever since I've had to keep him
by working in the brickyard, and not
only keep him, but find him money to
drink" And it is, it seems, growing
custom for idle, lazy young lads to look
out for skilled, industrious wives in or.
der to obtain m "easy life.
The sanitary condition OF the shops,
tho report says, is often bad. Women
work often in mn advanced state Of prcg-
nancy, and shocking story is told Of n
girl at work in brickyard "looking ex-
cecdingly ill.," md who to remark OF
the manager, "that she did not look up
to much this morning." replied: "No
more would you il YOU Ind had child
during the night"
The report shows clearly enough that
the trndes Of which it speaks involves n
species OF labor which women arc not
fitted to undertake ut all, which some
women undertake under compnlsion from
idle fathers or husbands, and which they
occasionally pursue at times and under
conditions in which such labor must be
seriously injurious to their health.
Nothing short Of IN absolute Legislative
prohibition Of female labor in these
trsdes will, in fact, meet the complaints.

A Romantic Story.

The other afternoon, while the mana
ger OF French provincial theater was
sitting on the terrace in front Of the Cato
des Varieties, in Paris, talking with the
proprietor, he was surprised by the ap-
proach OF handsome, elegantly dressed
young woman, who said 10 him: "Sir,
I see by your ring that you are 4 married
man. I also am married, and must
speak with you. Come with me" The
manager, ,astonished but curious, obeyed;
and following the fair unknown into her
coupe, was driven away. 81 am not an
adventures, said the young woman;
II have money" (At the same time
showing G,000 francs). But it is essen
tial that you should aid mo in escaping
from my father and husband, who make
me- very unhappy" She continued in
this strain tillthe coupe reached the Pont
des Arts, when she suddenly cried out:
1 am about to commit crime" and
jumping from the carriagc. ran to the
parapet Of the bridge, and mounted it,
in order to plunge into tho river. The
police fortunately seized her in time to
prevent this. A crowd Immediately col
lected, but the manager said to the
gendarmes, with great presence OF uind:
This lady is my wife, who is merely
suffering from little alteration OF mind
and wished to frighten me-" The hdy
was released, and getting into the coupe
with her new friend, they returned to
the Cafe des Varieties. The young lady,
during tho return drive, did not say n
word. When the cafe was reached, she
gave her fathers address, who OF course
was ut once seut for, and took his daugh-
ter home. She belonged to one Of the
most fashionable families in Paris, and
her parents are Of high rank. She was
laboring under an attack Of hysterin,
which rendered her, for tho time being,
insane.

A Shnky Prisoner.

The first prisoner ont to be tried in
the Detroit police court, says the Free
Press, WIS shaking with tit OF the
aguc. He was bent over, his lips were
blue, his short hair stood up like bris.
ties, and rs the shnkes run up and
down his back the chairs almost danced
around.
"This is pretty state Of affairs,
George Cain!" exclaimed his honor.
"Tcll mo, sir, what business YOU had to
have the ague Just as I want to try you
for being drunk"
az don't know" gasped George,
shivcring rs il cold crowbar had been
run down behind his collar.
"Is this the real aguc, or are you try
ing to deceive me ?"
"It's the-the ag.e-r!" gasped the
prisoner.
"Do you feel cold !"
"Y.y-yes, sir.
"And can't you keep your teeth from
knocking together I"
"No.no.no.no, sir."
"Well, I'm going to lot you shake
yourself out OF court; but harkee, boy!
II they trot you in hero again on the
same charge, and the ague comes on,
III send out after leo, oilcloth, and all
the other cold things can think Of, aud
I'll freeze you to death and sell your
body for lawn ornament! Paste those
words in the crown OF your hat, George
Cain, for I'm terribly in earnest. Go
home now, and il you meet an old friend
OH the street and he holds out his hand
and asks you to 'shakc,' do you obligo
him.
