England,

1t would be impossible to cary oIt
a list of all the trades, but these are
fairly representative.
2. We are enabled to pay higher
wages by the operation ofmany causes
of which these two are, perhaps, chief;
there is a greater spirit of emulation
among American than among Euro
pean workmen; better fed, better
educated, exercising greater political
rights, there is more ambition among
them, so that it is fact that Ameri-
can workmen do more and better
work in a given number of hours, than
the workmen of other countries, and
cognate to this is the inventive power
of our people, which leads to the
use of machinery in nearly all trades,
to a greater extent than in England
or elsewhere. The second reason is
that we have more profitable market
for our goods than European manu-
facturers possess-the sixty millions
of American people, being in posses
sion of more money than any equal
number elsewhere, buy more goods.
The people of this country are said to
purchase more wooden goods
clothing, carpets, etc.--than all
the Otner people III tne Worlu
put together. They also pur-
chase more iron ware and con-
sumo more food per capita than the
people of any other country. Ameri-
can producers have a home market
such as no other producers possess.
Now, it is obvious that home market
is less risky and more profitable than
a foreign one. Consequently, our
manufacturers can afford to pay good
wages when they go to create home
market. Before the war wages were
higher here than in Europe, owing to
the great demand for labor on
farms and in railway and canal
construction. But it is obvious
that these avenues would soon be
choked by the stream of immigration,
if manufacturers did not provide adj
ditional receptacles for it.
8. This question is hypothetical.
The Inter Ocean is sure that wages
will come down to English levels
whenever English free-trade policy is
adopted, and feels certain that they
will not come down to such levels
while an American policy of protec-
ton is maintained.

INHERITED DISEASES.
Tho Sins of the Fathers that Descend to the
Third and Fourth Generation.

TIE Sins of the Fathers that Descend to the
Third and Fourth Generation.
In the realm of disease, the facts Of in
heritance are most numerous and are
daily accommodating. Here they are
no longer, alas, curious and
amusing, but terrible, iateful, over
whelming. No fact of nature is more
pregnant with awful meaning than the
fact OF the Inheritance of disease. It
meets the physician on his daily rounds,
psralyzipg his art and filling him with
sadness. The legion Of the ancient
Greeks pictured the malignant Furies
pursuing families from generation to
generation, and rendered them desolate.
The FurIes still ply their work of terror
and death; but we have stripped them OF
the garb which superstition threw around
them, and they now appear to our eyes in
the more ineligible but less awful form
OF hereditary disease.
Modern science, which has cast illuml-
nation into so many dark corners Of ma
ture, has shed new Snd still more lurid
light on the words OF the Hebrew scrip
ture: "The sins OF the fathers shall be
visited upon the children unto the third
and fourth generation" Instances of
hereditary disease abound on every
hand! Fully 30 per cent. of cases Of govt
are inherited. The proportion Is not
much less in that fell destroyer OF fami-
lies, our nstional scourge, consumption.
Cancer and scroiula run strongly in famt-
lies. insanity is hereditary to marked
degree; but, unfortunately, like many
other hereditary diseases, tends to wear
itself out, the stock becoming extinct.
Nearly ali defects of sight are occasional
" inherited. Sir Henry Holland says
truly that 'ino organ or texture OF the
body is exempt froa the chance Of being
the subject of hereditary disease"
Probably more chronic diseases which
permanently modify the structure and
functions Of the body are more or less
uAble to be inherited. The important
and fsr-reaching practical deductions
from such facts-a1scting SO powerfully
the happiness of individuals and families
and the collective welfare Of the nation
will be obvious to reflective minds, but
cannot be dwelt upon in the present
article,

THE COTTON MARKET.
The movement Of cotton both TO the
ports and interior towns has been smaller
this week than WAS looked for, but this
had no eject on prices. The market for
both spots and futures sagged, and dur
ing the early half of the week futures
reached the lowest prices that have been
touched in the New Orleans market since
the 7th of October last, and spot dropped
to the figures current on the Sth Of No
yember.
The decline had the effect Of inducing
something of an export demand for spots,
and during the latter part of the week q
decidedly stesdier feeling was displayed,
and larger sales were effected than for
several weeks past.-[Cotton World.
