Gricyous is the condition of the very rich So
strange are some Of the appeals made every day to
the charity and kindlinesyof wealthy persons, that
they are hard to believe. For instance, to a LADY
well known for her generous heart her gentle ma
ture, and her large measure of this worlds goods.
appeared not long ago young woman, an utter
stranger, of agreeable and modest mien. This
young woman had come to New-iork to engage
in a profession, and artlessy she stated
her belief that if the excellent lady she addressed
would only take her into her house a guest, for
tine, and introduce her to her friends, she would
do her great service, and send her far on her way
IN her work in the plcasantest manner. She was
good GIRL an amablc girl and the only explanation
of this extraordinary performance, was that she
had read SO many rOmances that she imag-
ncd that she had only to open her mouth
for the sky to rain cherries. Her genial faith
IN humanity is only to be surpassed 10y that Of "A
Western woman who wrote TO ask wealthy lady

quainted to stepOut and buy her "a set of false teeth

street corner and were warranted to fit any mouth.

The complaints of the gentleman whose wife
could not find a ktchen-maid at reasonable wages
are reinforced by the statements of the SuDerin-
tendent of Castle Garden to the correspondent of
Western paper. This official says that, while
male immigrants glad to get work at any
price, he can do nothing with the women He
sends men off every day for hard work

shftless and unpleasant young woman would
refuse the same wages for hOusework, almost as If
The offer were an insult. A half-clothed, untaught
girl lust from turf-cabin and semi-starvatiOn, de-
mands the wages of q well-trained servant, and
thinks that she is being cheated when less is offered

sonabe in her way. It is not dIy of abundant
money, prices have gone down, her masters salary
is largely reduced yet this good creature would
toss her head and leave the house were it gently
suggested that q prOportionate reduction in her
wages was advisable and that it Is not now war

ployers to whom few dollars more or less every
month are no great matter. When they put wages

intolerable look of scOrn.

Judge Robertson shows his proverblal goou
sense in obiecting to the extraordinary Dlli oi
Senator j. f. Pierce for making. New l ork
State claim agency for the collection Oh re-
nudia+sd State bonds through the United
States Supreme Court. His reasons are those
which will at once occur to every unprejudlced
person with even slight knowledge OF the
law. But what shall be said of judiciary
Committee which reports this bill favorably
Not even the salt of Judge RObertsOns pres
ence will save it from the reprOach of passing
such measures through its hands. The Senate,
for the sake of its own reputation, should Kill
the bill promptly.
A remarkably large majority was obtained
in the House for the repeal of the Bankrupt
Law. The bill for repeal differs from that
passed by the Senate only in respect to an
amendment which does not at all change Its
RI iDsic character. In all probability, there
los,, the Bankrupt Law will be swept off the
statute book within few days The sentl-
ment demanding its repeal had gath
cred momentum since the previous ses-
sion of Congress. and was, as recently
stated in these columns, almost ire
slstible. If this action paves the way
to a better law, the repeal will do little harm,
but the country can scarcely afford to be en-
tirely destitute of general provision for bank
ruptcy proceedings. The immediate effect OF
the repeal is likely to be good since the num-
Der of people anxious to be registered as in
solvent had rapidly increased while the bill
was pending. At all times it is great relief
to the public, when Congress closes up debate
and comes to q conclusion, one way or other,
in matters involving business interests.
The Temperance citadel has been captured.
Or rather, what the Temperance people had
come to look upon as a stronghold has sur
rendered. Nine members of the Assembly
who voted against Mr.. Days Excise Bill
voted for Mr.. HOahans, yesterday, and 1T
passed, receiving barely the number of votes
required by the Constitution. The extreme
Temperance advocates charge that this con-
version is due to the convincing argument of
liquor money, and were so OutspOkcn
in this belief, that so respectable member as
MI Skinner, of Jefferson, boldly asserted III
yesterdays debate his conviction that MEM
bers had been bribed to vote for the bill.
Others declare that this change Of sentiment is
revolt against the incompetence of the Temper
ance men. Probably both are partly right.
The straits of the liquor dealers have been such
that rural members who were in some dread
of their constituents on this question have
probably been able to command their own
rates. and others may have been honestly in
fluenced by the fact that the entire New-Iork
delegation demanded an Excise law which could
be enforced in place of one which could not.
1t is 10y no means certain, however, that the
HOlahan bill will become a law. The session
is near its close, and the bill has travelled only
half the way.
