Wages in Se,c England.

Mr.. Carroll ID. Wright, of the Massa-
chusctts Bureau Of Labor and Statistics,
who is sad to be Il careful statistician,
in his recent report gives some interest
Ing facts about prices and compensa-
ton in New England. According to
this report, in the mills of Maine, men
are paid $3.50 a week, and women get
only $3.50, while the children receive
from S5,a5 TO $40 in the wooden mills,
which pay the largest wages, One pa
per mill in Maine pays men Sl0,50 a
week and women $3.50, working seven
two hours II week. In New Hampshire
the wages are much lower than thosc
paid III Maine, and the operatives are
required Ia work sixty six hours III the
week Rhode Island the wages are Il
little higher, with siXty-SiX hours al
Nnr., during. Tia. week. Ia Connecticut
operatives work ninety hours Il week
fifteen hours day for six days-and
wages are 50 for mon. $3.50 for women,
81, 10 for male children, and $3.50 for
female children. The highest splnncrs
wages are So. In Massachusetts from
siNty-thrcc io sixty six hours of labor a
week are cXacted, and spinners only get
: ,0S day-the highest class of labor
n the mills not exceeding $40 to $l2
;or the men. Many of these factories
are run 10y watcr-powcr, and much time
i lost during the winter seasons on ac-
count of freezes, and of course the en-
pi"yes are not paid for the time thus
lust The statlstician remarks that
long hours and poorly paid labor tend
to brutaliZc," and he shows that one
manufacturing town in Massachusetts,
! supports 400 bar.roomS. Such is the
exhibit of gentleman who has no
reason TO misrepresent things, and it
presents facts which are not crcditable
to the boosted civilization, wealth, and
generosity of the New England manu-.
! tacturcrS.

MIR as Cause Of THLercssiOus
Diseases.

Mr.. Flemi ing, Veterinary Surgeon to
the Royal Engineers, has insisted upon
the urgent necessity that exists for pre-
venting the consumption of the milk
and flesh of diseased cattle. In pa
per recently read by him II, Norwich,
England, he has adduced further proof
of the extreme danger to the public
from tins source, and these proofs are
certainly startling and worthy of notice.
We learn that tuberculosis among cattle
is greatly on the increase, and especial
ly in the higher bred stock, some an
thoritics going SO far rs to assert that
five per cent are affected. AS dairy
cows are never inspected as to their
state of health, as they furnish by far
the larger proportion of phthisical DO,
vines. there can he no doubt as to the
gravity of the question in its relation to
human tuberculosis. AS the pig, an
omnivorous creature like man, and
hearing close analogy to the lord OF
creation in other respects, is most read
lily infected hy feeding with milk or tn
bcrclc. there is every reason to think
that mankind, and particularly chill
dren. may he susceptible rs the porcine
tribe. 1t is somewhat strange tina,
though the note of warning was sound
cd so frequently and SO long ago, i
should not have excited attention. L
is not to late not to adopt precautions
of what is reported he correct. 1t il
high time that the sanitary condition
of milk and flesh-producing animal:
was ascertained. AT present there j:
ample scope for free trade in these dis
eases and death dealing articles of food
What with private slaughter houses an(
unvisitcd diaries. there is no check
| whatever.
