Taking all these kinds of labor into &C
count, the wages paid for work on the
bridge will thus average 50 80 per day.
Now, if this work had been done at the
time when the the Pyramids were built,
with the skill, appliances and tools then
in use, and if the money available for its
execution had been limited to nine mill
lion dollars, the laborers employed would
have received an average of not more
than two cents per day, in money of the
same purchasing power as the coin of the
present era. In other words, the effect
of the discoveries of new methods, tools
and laws of force has been to raise the
wages of labor more than an hundred
fold, in the interim which has elapsed
since the Pyramids were built. l shall
not weaken the suggestive force OF this
statement by any comments upon the
astounding evidence of progress, beyond
tho obvious ccrollary, that such state
of civilization as gave birth to the Pyra-
mids would now be the signal for univer
sal bloodshed, revolution and anarchy. |
do not underestimate the hardships borne
by the labor of this country. They are,
indeed grievous. and to tighten them is,
as it should be, the chief concern of states
manshir. But this comparison proves
that through forty centuries these hard
ships have been steadily diminished: that
all the achievements of science, all the
discoveries of art, all the inventions of
genius, all the progress of civilization,
tend by higher and immutable law to
the steady and certain amelioration of
the condition of society. 1t shows that
notwithstanding the apparent growth of
great fortunes, due to an era of unparal-
leled development, the distribution of
the fruits of labor is approaching from
age to age to more equitable conditions
and must, at last, reach the plane of alb
solute justice between man and man.

Considerable feeling is being excited
in Baltimore by a conflict of opinion
between prominent members of the
Board of Trustees of John Hopkins Uni
versity. The quarrel is in relation to
the site of the University. When Johns
Hopkins founded the institution which
bears his name, he intended that his
country seat at Clifton should be its fut-
IRE abiding place. In making over his
gifts to the trustees he did not, however,
restrict them to any spot, but left it to
their wisdom to act as the circumstances
of the case demanded. a majority of
the trustees are in favor of retaining the
buildings within the city limits, there
healthfulness and convenience having
been tested by several years use, and
found perfectly satisfactory. The mi
nority. led by Mr.. John W Garrett, of
the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad, wish
to remove to Clifton; and not only that,
but they have charged that the Cniver-
sity has not been carried on, in accor-
dance with the intentions of its foun-

In,crruptlnE Horace Greeley.

CIeVelAnu LeAutF.
Shortly after the passage Of the Four
tenth Amendment, movement in which
Mr.. Greeley had taken considerable inter.
est, a large darkey who had called several
times at the Tribune office came into Mr..
Greeley's private room while he was busily
engaged in writing. Now, II there was one
thing that was well understood around the
Tribune office it was that Mr.. Greeley was
not TO be interrupted in the midst OF his
thoughts When he was seen 10 be busy,
with his face close down to his paper, and
his pea running rapidly from LETT to right
across his sheet, no one around the office
had the hardihood to speak to him. But
this colored gentleman marched straight
up to hiselbow, andwith large gold.headed
cane under his arm, and fine broad
cloth coat buttoned close around his
breast, he broke right in: 81 say, Mr.. Gree.
ley, thought would call and talk with
you, sab, about advising the cullud people
10 study de sciences" MIR. Greeley's lace
assumed a nearer proximity than ever TO
the paper he was writing on, and his baud
kept going across it from left to right with
greater rapidly than before. The cheeky
freedman was not to be put out OF time in
this way. He therefore spoke again, and
in slightly louder tone Of voice than be-
fore: ~ thought l would ask YOU" he con.
tinued, ito write an editorial advising de
cullud people to study the sciences" Still
the great editor wrote on. On the third
repetition OF the remark Mr.. Greeley laid
down his pen, and, looking up hastily, ex-
claimed: "Go away Go to hi! Go over
into New Jersey, and 60 TO raising pota-
toesw The colored man didn't trouble
him any more. .. .....

"Moral Reform and Temperance" The
lecture was preceded by a rendition Of the

Mr.. Rice was introduced to the audience
by Thomas Doutney he struck an impress

the following quotalion:-"There Is divi.

in the habit Of getting drunk and had been

then related how gentleman who had
spent his last twenty-five cents for alcoholic
stimulants, which money had been spent
by saloon keeper in the purchase OF a
beefsteak, had suddenly awakened to the
benefits OF temperance, and had in con.
sequence grown very wealthy and become
leading citizen. This was followed by a
recital Of the cases OF four other chronic

liquor, had risen into prominence. The
lecturer asked his auditors II they had ever

No where in all France can we meet

Of the Doubs and Jura departments-the
descendants OF the "seven-feet Burgun.

the ranks Of the French cuirassiers on the
ground OF insufficient height. AS matter
