Short Hours Are a Fiction After

A correspondent writes to the Lon
don Express: Having recently return
ed from India, | am struck with the
white slavery that exists to-day in the
banks Of London. The hours-1O to A.
are used as an inducement to join GER
tain banks in London, but in reality the
hours are nearer $50 a. m. till 8 D. m
What does this mean to a young man
living with his parents in the suburbs
Qor the mere pittance derived from
this slavery can only keep him in rail.
awy fares, clothing and the midday
meaD? 1t means that some of them
have to leave their homes as carly as
Z a. m. in order to reach their post in
time. 1t also means that it is 10 D. m.
or after before they reach home, tired,
overworked and with a distracting
headache. Working, as they do, in a
close, badly ventilated and brightly
lighted office, must be Injurious
I'm India, If such a thing were done
but native clerks would not stand it.
the dreadful cry of slavery would be
heard everywhere, and people in Eng
land would spend money and time and
make every effort to bring about rem
edy. Why is this not done here? We
can find banks paying Is per cent, Is
per cent and even 20 per cent per
annum dividends at the expense of the
poor, underpaid white slave, the unfor-
tunate employees Shaving for wage
that would surely shame the stockhold-

campaign, and Gen. Greene was press

cepted with great reluctance. for his
inclination was. to serve in the line
and the charge and distribution of the
public money was of all things disa-
gFeeable. The necessities of the army
however, and the strong expression OF
Washington, that "some one must
make the sacrifice at last induced
him to consent; but not until the con.
dition was acceded, that, he should not
lose his right to command in action.
OF this he awaited himself at the bat
tie of Monmouth, and on the retreat
from Rhode Island.
Commanded the CaroIinas
Gen. Greene was appointed to super
sede Gates. in command in the Caro-
linas, on the 14th of October, 1880; and
four days after, he set out from West
Point for his command.
On arriving In Charlotte, on the End
day OF December, he found the south
ern army a mere skeleton. without
artillery. baggage, or stores.
Cautiously he adapted his operations
to his means. The prudent policy OF
Washington, and the precipitate i'm
prudence of Gates. were both before
him. His first care was to remove to
a, place.. where subsistence and the
means of transportation could be OBJ
tanned. CORVALLIS was at Winnsbor-
ough, and Leslie was advancing with
a powerf@ reinforcement towards
Camden. The only mode of carrying
on the war was, to cut up these forces
in detail, by sudden assaults on their
detachments; by enticing them into
the interior; and by striking at the
posts, and keeping up an alarm on
every side, until the American COM
mander should find himself in suf-
ficient force, to face his antagonist.
Gen, Greene, with the main body.
marched to the Cheraw hills on the
Pee Dee: and detached Gen. Morgan
to the west OF the Catawba, to act on
the left of CORVALLIS, to collect pro-
visions and forage, and annoy the en-
envy as circumstances would permit.
This movement alarmed the British
commander for some of his posts, and
he despatched Col Tarleton, with a
force, to destroy him, which
was itself. annihilated at the
Cowpens. Called at this UNI
expected result CORVALLIS has
tened to eut off Morgan's retreat with
his prisoners, and to prevent him unit
ing with the main body. Fooled in the
attempt, he vigorously pursued Greene,
who was moving in a direction to unite
with Morgan.
His Famous Retreat.
This is the commencement of the cell

across the state OF North Carolina. into
Virginia. which has won for the Amer
lean commander a high rank. in the
