MIR. GLADSTONE'S LAST SUcCFSs

The large majority with which Mr.. Glad
stones Government has been sustained this
week in the Transvaal debate is ope oP tba
pleasantest surprises of tho session. The cam
paign was one which reflected little but dis
credit upon the military staff. The British
troops were Out-man@uvred and inglorously
beaten by an insignificant body of colunists
who had raised the standard of revolt. To
grant an armistice and to negotiate o peace with
these insurgents without winning victory VIVA
calling enough to English pride This was
what tho Government had done. Not ONLY had
1t made peace without regaining military pres
tige, but it had virtually granted all that tho
Beers had been fighting for. The Convention
proposed by the Royal Commission virtually
restores the Transvaal to those who had been
deprived of their rights against their will,
There was nothing in the military operations or
In the conditions of peace which the tynical
Engllshman, who Is doggedy combative when
he once begins to fight, and tenacious in hold
ing Oh to whatever has once come into his nos
session, could regard with composure. The
most that could be said was that Mr.. Gladstone
had the courage to do right, and that the coursa
which he had taken could be amply Justified On
moral grounds. The popular irritation was in
creased, moreover, by the shrill outcries of the
Jmgoes against what they chose to denOunce as
policy of unconditional surrender and neoce
at any price, and also by tho remonstrances of
small body of loud-mouthed Transyaal low
alists, whose grievances have been carefnlIv
nursed at the Cape and noisily rehearsed in
London That the action of the Government
should be vindicated by so large majority as a
vote OF 314 to 2O5, at the very moment when
the Beers were again showing signs of bad tenn
per and quibbling over the terms of the Conyen.

YOUNG MEN and VACATTONs.

We are far more holiday making folk than
we were. yet large classes of the community are no
better off in this respect now than in the past.
There fingers among the heads OF commercial
houses fixed determination that fortnight is to
be the extreme limit of pleasure making which can
under any possible circumstances be admitted.
The young lawyer, for the most part, gets his
menth or six weeks the clergyman the same, even
the medical man oftentimes contrives to exceed
fourteen days, but the limb of commerce is usually
condemned to that limit. OF course in the case of
paid clerks it may fairly be contended that the ext
gencies of business do not permit of house giving
more extended leave than two of fifty-two
weeks; but the rigor of the rule is in many cases
not relaxed even in favor of those who are in q
greatly superior situation, and it becomes qucs-
ton whether this practice is not attended with
sequences more serious than may at first appear
1t is frequent matter of complaint in New-York
that rich mems do not take kindly to business
and follow their fathers up in the line in. which
they have been successful. People point to this
hrin and that, comparing their decadence with their
high standing twenty-five years ago. and with
reason ;but perhaps they do not take into account
that many young men here conceive disgust of
entering business, and consequently go to the bad,
or at best drbbe away life, by of the Excess
sivc application insisted on at the beginning of
their career. remarkably steady young fellow,
son OF man worth at least $4,000 year, who

he probably argues, OF being q rich mans son. if
I'm to be condemned during the best years of my
life to work hard the poorest clerk aud TO be

In England, where firms last for centuries. they
manage better. The rich mans son goes to school
and university, and has a good time" up to
twenty-five or twenty three, when he enters bust
ness and, albeit great regularity in attendance is
vigorously insisted on, he has the least four clear
weeks for travel or sport. AS a consequence he
conceives no aversion TO business and father
there far more than here sees IN his son an able
successor when he himself passes away. A man is
far more likely to take kindly to a vocation when
the path is nade tolerably smooth a. the beginning
We have only one life here, and where not abso-
lutcly necessary it seems a pity to spend all but
two weeks in each year of it at the desk.
