THE opinion of Mr. Raynor, Solicitor of the
Treasury, denying the propriety of granting a
license to a woman as a master of a steamboat is
one Of the curiosities of current literature. Mrs
Mary Miller of Louisiana who, some time ago,
assumed the duties of such position on account
of the illness Of her husband, and who is
thoroughly qualified to navigate the crooked
branches and tributaries of the lower Mississip-
pi found herself hampered by lack of legal au-
thority to transact business She, therefore,
applied for license Mr. Raynor admits that
there is no law to prevent a woman from com
manding steamer, and it would seem to an Or
binary mind that, with this statement, the So
licitors duties in the case were at an
end He does not look at it in
that way, however, but launches solemnly
into the social and moral aspects of this pro-
posed outrage upon womankind to the extent of
a column or two. He loves the ladies, God bless
EN-! does Mr. Raynor; but when they engage in
callings unsuited to them, he thinks the result
is to 'lower and lessen that chivalric devotion
to the sex that has peculiarly marked American
civilization hitherto" Notwithstanding the
fact that he is doing his little mite to stem the
tide by refusing license to Mrs. Miller, he can
not shut his eyes to the fact that the tendency
of the times is to unsex woman by projecting
her out of her sphere. He is evidently of the
opinion that if the lady in question were made
master of vessel, there would instantly
follow a mad scramble by other
women for licenses as steamboat captains,
too. They might oven demand to be made rail
way engineers or other positions which would
expose them to contact with the rude and wicked
world. The Solicitor allows his imagination to
picture more awful perls than this. He
says. with horror which must have made his pen

THE Petersburg IndeXAppeal, an organ of
Bourbon Democracy in Virginia, is much
stirred up over the Sherman resolutions in the
Senate for the investigation of the Danville
massacre and the Hazlehmst assassination.
And yet withal it keeps its common sense to
the front and comedies that the Democrats
themselves are more to blame for whatever
evil results follow than anyone else. What
the Appeal says is worth quoting at least in
part:
owe do not say that an investigation would
not have been ordered by the Senate if the
authorities at Danvlle had caused the arrest
of every person, white or black, who was sus-
pected on reasonable grounds of having shot
at another on the occasion referred to, and had
tried them all; but the edge would
have been taken from any malignant report
the committee might have made if there had
been displayed at Danville an earnest, de
teImined effort to reach the whole truth
through regular judicial inquiry. 1t is idle
it is worse than idle-to say that the report of
the committee of forty, or of the grand jury
was all that the circumstances demanded. Men

the half-dozen, in the streets of city without

provement of its members in knowledge of prin-
ciples details pertaining to the craft assumes
to represent If any efficient effort were ex-
erted in those directions by such bodies, there
might be show of reason in maintaining them;
but nothing of the sort is apparent On the con
trary the chief object in view seems to be the
devising of methods to get as much pay as pos
sible for the least amount of service rendered
and the protection of idle and unskilled work
men at the expense of the more industrious and
competent. Lazy, shiftless fellows are con
stantly making use Of the trades unions to con
ceal their deficiencies and tide them over the
troubles into which they fall in consequence Of
negligence and unftness for the positions into
which they have thrust themselves An en-
ployer often runs the risk of seriously injuring
his business by sending adl'ift one of those inca
pable shirks. All his hands are likely to be or
dered out on strike until the rights" of the dis
charged person shall be indicated by his re-
instatement. If the foreman is suspected of con
sulting the interests of his employer by
trying to save him from loss and damage through
the Sloth or ignorance of w0rkmen, he becomes
at once an object of bitter hatred, and the union
may, and sometimes does, demand his instant dis
missal, enforcing compliance by the customary
threat of ordering strike. The proprietor of
shop must not teach his own son the trade pur-
sued therein without first obtaining consent
from the union; nor is he himself permitted to
work beyond certain prescribed hours in order
to fulfil engagements with customers which are
in danger of being broken because his men have
been dilatory. 1t is a common remark among
people of middle age. who remember the COM
parative excellence of workmanship which pre-
vailed twenty or thirty years ago, that products
of mechanical labor turned out then were gem
orally much superior in quality to those procura-
BILE nowadays. Trades unionisn in those former
days was almost unknown. Ever since its in
PRODUCTION good workmen have been growing
scarcer in proportion to the whole number Of
persons calling themselves mechanics. There
their influence in trades unionsm is hardly felt,
because they constitute only small minority Of
membership, ordinarily and the windy dema-
gogues and botches have everything their own
way.

HARpER's Weekly saws:

"The atrocious massacre in the Phoenix
Park and the cold-b looded murder committed
by ODonnel are the fruit of a feeling which
fourishes, not chiefly because it is fed by Irish
sympathy and aid in America, but because it
is believed.that one of the great parties in
America, which is striving to obtain control
of the government is subservient to the Irish
sentiment which furnishes the aid. This be-
lief is justified by the presentation of such a
resolution as that regarding o Donnell by such
man as Mr.. Hewitt, and by its unanimous
passage Every American citizen may prop
erly apprehend that party which should seek
power by servility to that sentiment would
not resist its demands after it had obtained
power The Hewitt resolution is another
warning to the country against Democratic
ascendencY."

THERE is really but little value in the de-
bate on the Fitz John Porter case, especially
in the House except to impress upon the
people of the country the real fact in the case,
and that is, that he is to be restored to the
army and voted large sum of money because
he is a Democrat. The Democrats, from the
first, have made this political case, and have
steadily refused to discuss it upon its merits.
1t is a strange spectacle, the Democratic party,
with three fourths of its members in the
Southern States, posing as the special de
fender of the loyal, patriotic soldiers of the
Union. When the fighting was going on that
was not the attitude of the Democratic party.
