In the last number Of Bradstreet's Mr.. Ed
ward Atkinson shows that in each LOCO
workers in the United States, only 100 are
engaged in occupations upon whom an eight
hour law could be enforced, and that conse-
quently the passage of such law would sim
ply operate to depress the trades upon which
it could be enforced, relatively to all other
trades. In the first place, agricultural labor,
cattle and sheep growing, horticulture and
fishing could not be subjected to an eight
hour law, and, if they could, it would ruin
them. Blast furnaces, gas works, bakeries,
restaurants and all other employments re-
curing continuous heat could not be subject
ed to the eight-hour rule without instant de-
struction. Paper mills require continuous
operation. So also do railroads. There then
are the great multitude of employments that
the officers of the law can never reach. or
know anything about the people who work
at home, such as seamstresses, washerwom-
en-, carpenters, blacksmiths, in short, every
body who is his own employer. The only
trades that could be reached are those where
large numbers of workers are collected to-
gether for the purpose of attending machin-
cry, such as cotton and wooden mills, rolling
mills, boot and shoe factories, and the
like. These number not more than one in
ten of the people of the United States who
work with their hands. As to these Mr. At
kinson says, with his usual penetration: If
the advocates of an eight-hour law should
get it passed, the first efforts of the same
men who had promoted it would be to find
out how to work overtime to the best adyan-
tage in order to gain better subsistence.
The logical result of all such acts by which

Gladstone's agents are doing their work
very thoroughly in all parts of the country.
The Union forever" campaign of the To-
ries may be said to have completely collapsed.
The few Conservative meetings held the past
three days are dead failures. The Liberal
boilers are receiving Unexpectedly harsh
treatment at the hands of their constituents
In all directions, and are effecting change
of front with all possible celebrity. Jesse
Ceilings, who has been 'bob-nobbing" with
Birmingham caucus men and receiving his
instructions from Mr.. Chamberlain, has
come out in published letter with the re-
vival of an old Tory cry, for the edifcation
of the caucus Radicals. He tells them that
Mr.. Gladstone's measures mean separation.
His principal point of attack ON the Home
Rule bill is precisely what the cables have
indicated as the caucus policy, namely, the
question of retaining the Irish representa-
tives in the Imperial Parliament. Ceilings,
like Chamberlain, whose echo he is, would
willingly agree to an Irish Parliament being
created if Gladstone's would give way on
the point of Irish representation at West
minister. Representation in the Imperial
Parliament, he calculates, means subordina-
ton to higher authority. Subordination in
wolves appeals to the supreme tribunal by
the minority. No legislation by an Irish
Parliament could, under such system, be
final. The very act creating the native leg
islature would contain within itself seeds of
dissension and disintegration which could
not fail to bear early fruit, ending in turning
the country over once more to exclusive I'M
perial control undermining at stroke the
labors of many years. The fight in Parlia-
ment will centre on this condition of Irish
representation at Westminster.

According to a Nova Scotian member of

be matter of diplomacy to the government

STILL ROOM FOR IMPROVEMENT.
N Y. Tribune.
The evidence given before Wreck Commits
sioner Rothery on the Oregon disaster proves
that improvements in shipbuilding have not
reached their limit. Capt. Cottier testified
to one significant fact: that the steamer was
not a vessel quick to respond to the helm,
and that 'sshe would run for two or three
lengths when going at full speed before she
would begin to answer her helm" If this
is true the Oregon would run quarter of
mile before her rudder would have any. ef-
feet upon her, and so slow steering craft is
adangerous one to come within mile OF
two of on the ocean.

The London World applies with great
force to the Parnellites the old proyerb about

1t is gravely asserted that the entire minis

with Mr.. Parnell, of course, as premier, or
rather President of the Irish council. This
is piece of slate-making that will make
Americans envious.

The decision arrived at by the British
Board Of Trade in regard to the Oregon dis
aster has by no means set the matter at rest
1t has stirred up the Scotch nautical experts,
who now advance the altogether plausible
view that the steamship ran into the stern of
the schooner, that the hitherto inexplicable
hole above the water line was caused by the
schooner's counter, and that the rudder made
the second hole through which the water
rushed. This opinion, supported by logical
argument seems entitled to consideration.
The more the matter is looked at the more
general becomes the opinion that the chief
anxiety of the Wreck commissioners was to
shield the Cunard company from liability to
the passengers for their Inconvenience and
loss.

Mr.. Davis is probably right in characteriz-
ing the extraordinary honors paid to him in
Montgomery as not paid to him personally,
but to the cause of which he was once the
head and is now the chief martyr. Davis
personally is not attractive and there is
little in his character to love or admire
He is not of the stuff OF which heroes
are made. His career as President of the
Southern Confederacy redounded neither to
his own credit nor to the glory of his coun-
try. He lacked most of the essential quail
ties of great leader, and his own plumbers
contributed to the overthrow of the govern
ment which he undertook to build up. He
was selfish to the last degree, and never for
got to look out for himself first. He was a
coward, too. 1t is easy to understand how
the South can revere the names of Lee and
Jackson, for they were both brave men, who
voluntarily made great sacrifices for the
cause they espoused. But how it can shout
itself hoarse over Davis, who never made
any sacrifice which he was not compelled to
make, is inexplicable except upon the theo-
ry that they look upon him simply as the
representative of cause which is still dear
to them. This being the case, the fact that
Davis was greeted with tremendous enthuti-
asm all along his route to Montgomery is
not calculated to produce very pleasant SEN
sations at the North. 1t will be apt to strike
Northern men that the South would hardly
indulge in such boisterous tributes to the
lost cause unless it still believed in the
righteousness of it.
