Turning the cows away
Sweeping the floor OF the kitchen
Making the.beds up stairs,
Washing the breakfast dishes,

Brushing the crumbs from tie pFutry,
Hunting for eggs In the harn,
Roasting the meat for dinner,
Spinning the stocking yarn,
Spreading the snow white liunen

Ransaeking every meadow
Where the rcd strawberries grow.
Starching their eottons for Sunday,
Churning the snowy cream,
Rinsiug the pals AMI strliner,
Down in the running stream,
Feeding the geese and poultr~,

WEsTEGHoUsE automatic brake proved the
most effective, stopping train running 80
miles an hour in 20t seconds, and within q
distance Of 9l3 feet With the aid Of the
sand-tubes, the train was stopped in
distance of $40 feet With such brakes
as these, the danger from collisions
ought to be reduced to q very slight
minimum, and might be averted altogether,
if a patent brakeman could be found who
Was always at mis- post and did not consumed
minute or more getting to his brake after the
signal was given One important feature OF
this trial. and ;one upon which Americans
will be sure to congratulate themselves, IS
the fact that the WESTINGHOUSE brake is an
American invention. While England has
made many improvements in railroad travel
ing, the need has long been felt OF some
form of brake which should be under the
control of the engineer, and this need was
supplied by the WESTINGHOUSE brake, which
has been tried With the remarkable results
indicated above.

Courier is out boldly for rag money, and, as
sun1ing to speak for the Democracy Of that
State, threatens to make combination with
the Western Democracy in the National Con-
vention in behalf Of the gamblers and specu-
lators in rag~money. The GOODNESS Of this
proceeding arises from the fact that it not
only is presumptuous in supposing that the
Western Democracy is going to train with Bill

There seems to be decided breach in ths
political alliance which inflicted SO serious
dose Of bummerism upon the city nearly two
years ago. Mr. HBNa, one Of the chiefs Of
that era, broke away some time ago, and
now Mr. DAN OHARA, who shared HEsNa's
sceptre and power at that time, has been i'm
paling Mr. CoLyM upon his classical lance.
CoLvH has some OF the ring Aldermen with
him yet, We believe, but he has a]ienated
such important vote-brokers as those named
above, and MARK SERBIAN, AnE KEuoE,
md MRR EAySs, besides. It looks very
much as though tho combination is broken
il two in the middle; but there is
no telling. When election timo comes
around in the fall, it is not impossible that
both factions will burg the hhtchet and join
forces for the purpose Of repossessing them
selves Of the public spoi1s It will not be
strange # HEs1sa and AasEw lie down to-
gcther, and pet limbs like Co1vH and
OHARA lead them, and SHERIDAN and JAZZ
REHh fall upon each others breasts, and the
whole crowd formerly known as the HEzSo-
Ohm combination 60 in again for parti-
6nn Of plunder.

Nov that ths prospect is bad for the paving
Of Wabash or Michigan avenue during the
present season, We think that the Board Of
Public Works can nowhere use their money
to 50 much advantage as in persistent repairs
of thase two thoroughfares. The streets are
almost impossible in their present condition,
end they can only be made tolcrable by keep
ing teams and repa1ars constantly At work
As general rule, our streets would eI
be in much bstter condition, would
last longer, md cost Less, il repairs were
znade moro promptly and efficiently.
We do not believe tha. there is
Large city in the world where repairs On
streets are 20 much neglected as in Chicago.
It is an extremely short sighted and costly
policy. As to Michigan ayenue, the Board
would also do well to ascertain BY expert
ment whether they cannot get better quail

that they had been gradually increasing be-
yond the average increase of shipping; that
they were commonly of vessels which carried
a heavy insurance; and that shipowners were
regularly engaged in conspiracy to prevent
the proper inspection Of sea-going vessels-
These facts stunned for the time the British
public but, as in the case Of TWEED, the
first burning sense Of indignation has given
place to mere curious interest in the pro-
ceedings for reform, and those who most
sympathize with Mr. P11xBo1L are the least
ready to offer him effective support
The shipowners have arrayed the
money power against him, and have
controlled, by influences Of various kinds,
many members Of Parliament which, to its
credit be it said, cannot be bought by money.
Many Of MI. Pn1so11's opponents are doubt
less convinced that he is zealot, only half
informed, aud three times too hot !; and, in
certain sense, they are right P11Mso1L is
an enthusiast, as all reformers are; and, for
that reason, he is hard man to deal with.
The stuff that goes to prison for principle is

eminent which threw outhis bill, Twas not the
most discreet thing he could have done;
neither was it necessarily confession Of
failure. It meant either that the man was

the strength Of his cause and many people
will not believe that LIE was mad.

4 new instance Of the expenses which the
professed adoption of the charter OF 1872
laG entailed upon the city is discovered IN
the appointment of Commission, consisting
Of Messzs. HuRp, Tu1Er, and Roor, to revise
the city ordinances in conformity with the
new regime. Considerations Of prudence and
economy should have suggested to the Mayor
the postponement Of such Commission un-
til after the Supreme Court shall have decid-
ed that the charter Of 1872 was legally adopt-
ed,-vhich, to say the least, is extremely
doubtful The proposed revision will have
tc be made, Of course, if the charter is held
to have been adopted, and We have no doubt
the gentlemen appointed are Is competent for
the work as any who could be selected but
We hope that, pending the coatesting Of the
charter IN the courts, their own sense Of pub
lie duty VIII restrain them from piling up e1-
pcnses which may prove to be utterly value
less, as they viii be in case the charter shall
be set aside.

Mr.. P1nso11,, Member of Parliament, is
prepared to make a martyr of himself; aud
it cannot be denied that he has good cause.
The dispatches state that he appeared in the
House, just before his violent outbreak
against the Government, with carpet-baR
in his hand, fully expecting to be sent to
prison. So there is method in his madness.
There cannot be many persons, even on this
side the Atlantic, at all acquainted with
British affairs, who do not know something
Of this famous Mr.. P11xso11, and the reform
he has undertaken to accomplish. It is now
several years since be drew the attention of
Parliament to the criminal loss Of life at
sea, occasioned by the greed Of ship
owners, and especially by over-insur-
ance. Tho statistics relating to this
subject, collected and published by
Mr.. P1mso11, were convincing and appalling.

the value of these deposits. 1t Is question
to these people whether greenbacks shall be
advanced to mar, and these deposits made
equal to S47, 900, 600, or whether they shall
be reduced so that these deposits shall be
worth but Co. TO- or 80 cents On the dollar.
We have seen that in ten States Of the
Union there vera S7Go, 900, 600 on deposit in
the savings banks, and il we add only $780,
000 600 for like deposits in the savings banks
Of the other twenty seven States, we have an
aggregate amount of actual cash belonging
TO the wage laborers of ONE THOUSAND MILL
IONS OF DoL1ARs, or sum equal to one-hRf
of the national debt This great class OF
people, holding this vast amount of money,
the scanty savings of their daily and weekly
wages, are deeply interested in the question
whether, when they draw their money, they
shall be paid in actual dollars, each worth 100
cents in gold, or whether they shall be paid
with substitutes for dollars, worth anywhere
from 50 to 30 cents on the dollar Every
cent taken from the value Of a
greenback is equal to on6 million
and Anlf Of dollars taken from
the value Of these accumulated savings OF
labor these hardly spared dimes taken from
weekly wages of the hard-worhng class;
and, when it is proposed to so increase the
number of greenbacks that their value will
run down to 60 or 70 CENTS taking from !
them three to four hundred millions Of their |
savings, this very working class is called |
upon to vote their own impovenshmont and |
the destruction Of their own accumulated !
savings. Let any depositor work out how
much his savings would be worth with green
backs at par, how much they are worth now
at IS cents, and how much he will lose on
them should greenbacks be forced down 10,
20. or 30 cents less.
