LONDON, June 20.-Tne best domestic SER
wants in the world are undoubtedly to be
fouAd in England. Nowhere else can such
thorough, reliable, and willing services be
had. The servants of the aristocracy in
the middle ages were a class apart, and

a servant in Great Britain con j lers himself
of lower order of mankind tan his
master. and brings up his children in the
same belief. Humility is the creed. The
master-perhaps a drunken, scottish and
poverty gambler graced by neither
birth nor position-curses his servant like
mad and filings his booS jack at him. The
servant-who is as likely as not an intelli-
gent, honest, frugal, and temperate man
lodges the b)otjack, bows respectfully, and
murmurs the perennial "Chank you, sir.n

scend to the vulgar modern practice of
paying wages to their servants, whereas
their ance 'tors maintained an army of
hereditary retainers whom they had merely

live in daily fear of some neighboring
duke swarming down upon him
with his retainers and carrying him and
his family off to be acc inundated in a
suite of rooms very low down in tue neigh
boring d Ike's castle. The small pay Of the
mod til nobleman's servant is probably due
to his evolution from the hereditary unpaid
