THE ENGLISH LORD.

Were the French noble to lock across
the British Channel, he would perhaps
find out why his own ancient order Is
doomed to decay and extinction, while
The similar caste in England is still en-
|jOying much Of Its old power and vlgor.
Tne English Lord accepts, and does not
butt against, the inevitable. He knows
when to cease resistance, and to fuse
himself with the rest OF the nation. H.
becomes liberal, and 50 saves the rest O.:
his cOuntrymen from becoming reyolu-
tionary.
1t is stated that the son and heir OF
Earl Poulett, alter having somewhat
oneckered career as clown, has adopt
ed the stage as profession. Not long
ago young English peer enlisted in the
army as a private soldier. Lord Went
worth, ByroRs grandson, sowed his
wild oats by going to work as u wharf
niger. One of the Duke o1 Argylps sons
is Sin trade" The first three instances
are examples, perhaps, rather OF
individual eccentriciLy than Of
a disposition on the part OF
| the nobility to mingle in the
| OF the people; but the difference between
| the English and the Frenon mobiles may
| BIZ seen when we try to imagine u Roman

tricity, doing Wnat these young sciOns
OF the peerase did. 1t ssyident that
the English nobility have we'll learned

and even to great extent their polite

ago; but they have the art OF seeming o
1loaL with the current, quiesy holding
on to as much power as tney can, and

If they can no longer own pocket
Ooroughs and dictate the choice OF mem

The WOrkin q m en-.

A meeting yesterday, consisting OF
about three hundred people, was called
TO order at Arbeiter Hall precisely at
o'clock. Daniel McCarty was elected
Chairman.
The editor OF the Volkszeitung not be-
ing present, (he having been challenged
to a joint discussion by Mr.. Corry,) the
Chair announced that the floor was open
10 any one.
William Haller stepped forward and
read paper on 'The question of the
exchange OF commodities; money, its Of
fees and uses, and the power OF regG-
Iating by Governmental means the reia-
ton between man and man.
Hon. W. 81. Cory followed In a
lengthy speech, In which he favored a
system OF exchange that would cut out
| the middle man aud the money kings-
that is. the National Banks-and thus
save to the producer the great cost that
| is now incurred in the transfer of the
goods from the producer to the consum-
er. He, however, did not favor having
| Il system that would have anything like
an organization, for then he thought the
laborer would be robbed.
Mr.. Rutheuberg followed Mr.. Cory,
and showed that system must be or.
ganlzed that will allow the distributor
Of wealth merely to receive wages as q
Iaborer, which wages should be collected
as lax from each laborel's product.
The meeting adjourned to meet next
Sunday at o'c'sck T.. M, to again en-.
gage in the discussion, providing call
! is not issued IN the meantime convening
| all the SECTIONS i'll business session.

THE ITALIAN LANGUAGE,

The extraordinary tact is that, though
the Italian language in its present
form does not appear in any documents
of which we have cognizance before the
eighth century, and then only fragment
arily, yet suddenly, on the revival o.
letters, it bursts forth complete, and al.
most perfect, without going through
gradual changes which can be clearly
traced. Surely this indicates that it
had long existed in tie common speech
Of the people. If it appears as finished
language in literature in general re.
speots by the twelfth century, in u TO IN
when for six hundred years mas scarce
ly altered, it Is not TO be supposed that
it then suddenly sprang out OF the earth
but that it had long existed as Ian
guage. Even, then, when IL first appears
In It's present form, Latin continued still
TO be used in all documents and III liter
aLure; and when Dante broke from its
(etters to write his great poem in the
common tongue, he was guilty OF VIC
lent literary innovation. Nor withou
hesitation and long consideration did he
decide upon this course. He at first CON
| tempIated writing his "Commedia" il
Latin, aud only after repeated trials
finally decided upon the vulgar tongue
Petrarca had less courage, and wrote
his poem, "Atrica," by which he though
| to immortalize himself, in Latin; where
as, in tact, he is only known at L"e pres
ent day By his poems in the language o
the people, North Americln Review.

WHAT TO DO IN CASE OF ACCIDENT.
Prof. Wilder, of Cornell Cniver-
sity, gives the following short rnles
for action in cases of accident, which
should he remembered
EFor dust in the eyes, avoid rub
bling, dash wafer into them; remove
cinders, ETC., with the round point
Ut lead pencil.
Remove water from the ear with
tepid water poured in; never put 1t

ear. se4..- ..---.s
II an artery is cut, compress above
the wound if Il vein is cut compress
below.
If choked, get on all tours and
cough.
For slight burns, dip the part in
cold warer; if the skin is DESTROYED
cover with varnish.
Smother fire with carpets, etc.
rather than hunt about for water to
throw on it. Water will often cause
burning oil to spread, and increases
the danger. Before passing through
smoke take long breath. and then
stoOp low; but if carbonic acid gas
Is suspected. walk erect.
Suck poisoned WOUNDS, unless YOU
have a sore mouth; enlarge tn.

without delay; hold the wounded
part as long as can he borne To hot
coal or end of II cigar.
In case of poisoning excite vom-
