A correspondent Of the Chicago Times,
who has been to Europe. finds some
thing else besides pictures and statuary
70 talk about, and dwells upon the
Italian labor question. He declares that
no country Of Europe can approach
Italy in the poverty and suffering Of the
laboring classes. The average wages Of
a wOrkingman is less than twenty cents
a day, upon which he must support his
family. The household effects in many
Italian dwellings he found not to exceed
one dollar in value. Every laborer in
Italy would emigrate TO America at once,
he declares, if he could only raise money
enough 70 pay his fare there.

Take Care Of wills.

In the British house of lords Lord
Brougham once mentioned two some
what remarkable facts showing the
necessity Of having Il safe place for the
deposit of wills. The first case was
one in which one of his noble friends,
as a devisee, gained S150,000 year,
How the first lost it, and the last gain
ed it, was by q will being found in
rusty old box, in an old travelling car
riage, and which, therefore, might
have been very naturally lost by acct
dent or destroyed from ignorance. The
second case was one also in which some
of his noble friends were concerned,
and the sum in question was no less
than $750,000. This sum would have
been entirely lost to the purposes for
which it was intended, if the inquiries
relative to the existence of will with
respect to it had been instituted in the
winter instead of in the summer. The
will was searched for everywhere, but
could nowhere be found, until ut last
in was discovered in a CRATE, and stuff
ed like piece of water paper through
the bars; if it had been winter instead
ofsummer in all probability when the
fire had been lighted it would have
been destroyed.
