CoaMrssIoNER ]. A. Williamson has
this to say Of "Copp's Handbook 2
This work has evidently been pre-
pared with great care and cannot fail
to be Of great value to all interested
IN mining property, presenting as It
does, in concise and convenient form.
not only the laws regulating the dis
posal of mineral lands, but also a di-
gest Of the important rulings and de-
cisions of the General Land Office and
the Department of the Interior, in re-
gard to the subject of locating, hold
ing and acquiring title to mining
claims. In short, the work is, in fact,
what its title indicates, a handbook
of the mining laws"

From the London Quarterly Review,
Can Sunday be made o day Of pleas
ure and maintained as q day Of rest?
Do not answer the question hurriedly.
Go to q Scotch city, to New England
farm. to north and then to q south
Irish borough, to an English watering
place, then to French, German, Ital-
Ian and Swedish scenes Of the same
character. Take your time, look be-
low the surface, carry figures in, your
head, calculate well, for II is question
for mankind. Put all your facts to-
gether, and this is your conclusion
When Sunday becomes day Of pleas
ure 1t ceases to be q day Of rest. You
may as soon analyze water without
finding hydrogen as analyze Sunday
facts, taken from all the world. with
out finding this conclusion. Not rear
soning from theoretic premises to con-
jectural conclusions, but from ascer-
tanned facts to their natural results, we
ask-what leads to thisf Necessity
first, cupidity afterward. One mans
pleasure involves another mans labor:
II Romeo rides, Jehn must drive. IL
Augustus steams, Tom must stoke. IL.
Lucinda sees, Dick must show. II
Julius feasts, Mary must cook and
Jones must serve. II PEilokapnoe
buys cigars, Spndayless must sell
them. The fact Is, every Sabbathless
makesna Sundayless. But the labor
which, necessity drugs 1t the wheels Of
pleasure, Is not q 1.-THE ofwhat. In fact,
invariably follows pleasuring on Sum
day. Human nature will say that
work is ~ good % play. II the day Is
not too sacred for throwing sway
money, It 10 not too scored for gather.
Ing 1t. III some must, work or be cast
out Of bread, others viii work Tor the
love ofgain. Hence, when exhibitions
are opened ON Sunday, 20 are shops.
To the masters IL may be choice; but
what IL IL to the servants? Those who
have seen Europe must know that
where Sunday is turned to pleasure,
labor comes heavily, not only on work
men, but shopkeepsrs; thatthe retire
ment of country parishes IL no protec-
ton to the farm fp6rvant, nor the
heavy tofls ola city mason any excuse
against Sunday -drudgery. ~ When
men who have seen this with their
own eyes come and talk of breAking
down our Sabbath for the benefit Of
the working glasses, we declare 1t q
barefhced fmposture. 4 las =.
