SIzing Down the Ages of Man-
-
The man that dies youngest, as might be
expected, perhap4 is the railway brakes -
men. His average age is only 27. Yet
this must be taken with some allowance,
frein the fact that hardly any but young
and active men are employedin this capa-
city. At the mine age dies the factory
woekman, throligh the combined influence
of confined air, sedentary posture, scant
wages and unremitting toil. Then come
the railway bagg:w, e man, who is smashed
on an average at 30• lildliners and dress-
nealeers live but very little longer. The
average age of the one is 32 and the other
33. The engineer, the tiretnan thee con-
ductor, the powder maker, the well digger
and the factory operative, all of svhom are
expoaed to sudden and violent deaths, die
on an average un.der the age of 35. The
cutler, the dyer, the leather dresser, the
apethecary, the confectioner, the cigar
maker, the printer, the silversmith, the
reinter, the settee cutter, the engraver and
the machinist. all of whom lead confined
lives, in an newholesome atmosphere, do
not reach the average age of 40. The musi-
cien blows all his breath out of his body at
40. Then come trades that are active, or
in a pure air the baker lives to an average
age ef 43,e'the butcher to 49, the brick -
maker to 47, the carpenter to 49, the fur-
naenanan to 42, the mason to 48,the stone-
cutter to 42, the tanner to 48, the tinsmith
to 41, the weaver to 44, the drover to 40,
the cook to 45. the nm -keeper to 46, the
Laborer tn 44, the clome.sticservant (female)

who e.verage half a centtuer amongmechan-

Albert Edward to .9.1freds
Albert Edward, 'Prince of Wes, has
mitten a long leiter to his brother Alfred,
in India. In the following paragraph he
strikes otf the Mordannt scandal:
'Blameless 1 people here say 1 am mit.

Noah, who had his sea legs on was unable
to recover his equilibrium and sat down
with emphasis on the bank 9f his head.
Noah arose, and, in aecordenee with the
style prevalent among the patriarchs, he
proceeded to soothe his affronted dignity
by pronomming a variegated anathema
upon the yeller dog, which had character-
istically sneaked unobserved on board, in
the confusion of putting to sea; and capsiz-
ed the captain at the first port. Be cursed
that dog in body, Ihrib, bark, hide, hair,
tail and wag, and all his generation, tele -
tion and kindred, by consanguinity or
affinity, and his heirs and assigns. He
cursed him with endless hunger, with per-
petual fear, eith perennial laziness, -with
hopeless mange, with incessant fleas, and
with his tail between his legs. He closed
his stock of maledictions by a sparkling
display of pyrotechinics, from the demor-
alizing effect of which the yeller dog has
never recovered.
With this curse sticking ,to him like a
revenue stamp, the yeller dog can't help
being cussed. He don't try to help it.-
He follows Noah's programme with sneak-
ing fidehty. He is an Ishmaelite among
dogs. Be received the most oppressive
courtesies in the form of brickbats, boots
and hot water, which makes his life an ani-
mated target excursion. He boards around
like a district school teacher, and it is meal
tune with him twenty -bur hours in the
day. The rest of the time he hankers af-
ter semething to eat. He is too omnivor-
ous for an epicure. Cram him at Delmon-
ico's, and he would hunger turd essertfrom
an Albany boarding house.
Be can't be utilized. He is too tired. -
As a swill -cart locomotive, a hunter, or a
sentinel, he is an ignominious failure.-
The dog churn was a strategic attempt to
employ his waste energies, but he hadn't
any waste energies, and butter had too
um& self-respect to come at his persua-
sion. So the dog churn was dropped.
No sattsage-maker dareforeelose his lien
on the yeller dog, lest his custemers-no
longer 'soothed and sustained by an unfal-
tering trust' -transfer their patronage to
some less audacious dealer. The savages,
who admire baked dog, and who can even
attack tripe and explore the mysteries of
hash without dismay, acknowledge the
yeller dog to be too much' for their gastric
intrepidity. •
He always manages to belong to ragged,
tobacco -chewing" whits' key -drinking master, th
whose business is swapping dogs and evad-
ing the dog tax. The yeller dog is ac-
quainted a ith himself, and he enjoys _e
intimacy with edifying Contempt. He
slinks along through life on a diagonal dog
trot, as if in doubt as to which end of him
is entitled to the precedence. He is al-
ways pervaded by a hang -deg sense of
guilt, and when retributive tinware is fas-
tened to his tail, he:flies with a' horrified
celerity which ought to be very suggestive
to two legged sinners of a similar ordeal
in store for them.
The yeller dog is -well, to speak in
italics, he is a stortich.-MarkeTwain.
The Art- of Advertising.
The following remarks, from the In-
dianapolis Mirror, are sensible and sound:
The advantages of advertising are
generally conceded by business men. They

,arecognise the power of printer's ink,

ing in newapapers for gratuitoes. distribu-
tion, sooner or later find that tiley have
been swindled,- People reason, irmy cor-
rectly, that a paper which mu be given
away is not worth reading; and the pub-
lishers of such papers, although they may
agree to distribute five thousand copies,
are nsually seesitiye to the price of white
paper, and content themselves with print-
ing &re hundred instead ot five thousand
copieri, which. are scattered in bunches ab-
out the saloons and butelit, and are found
useful only for cigar lighters. A smooth,
tonguey canyassei, not at all scrupulous in
the matter of' lying, can set up a boned at

euse ii that Sir George - was extremely
busy ; that he never saw the 'application
• made, and. that the curt reply sent, was
ifrom a clerk, Who merely acknowledged
the receipt of Mr Punshon's lettir at the
,

it before Cartier.- We can hardly thiuk

astute and eautious men as Dr. F. Wood
and Dr. Lublin Taylor (The Missiopary
Secretaries), so keen a polities' wire pull-
er -as Dr. Ryerson, and so thoroughly
honest and eminently able a man as Dr
Georgh Douglass, would make theraselees
appear silly -by growing miignant over an
imaginary grievance. Admitting that
the offensive reply did come from a clerk
without Sir George's knotvlege, surely
that 'little busy bee' has not been 80 very
busy ever since as not to be able to find
time to supplement his clerk's curt style
and insolent mode tf address, with a few
gracious words from his own pen. Or
does earlier leave the n hole running of
the machine, in so far as Dissenters 'are
concerned to bis subordinates, reserving
to himself the right of convultation when
the interests of the pseudo State Chu*
are_at stake? With a very earnest desire
to be charitable, we must confess to a
tendency towards suspicion whenever a
departmental clerk is thrust forward to
receive the stripes intended for las chief's
back. Reiffenstein is now in the Pent-
tentary, but there is a strong fee:ing. pre-
valent that a greater man than he should
be there if fall justice were done in the
matter it which he is • the sole victim.
Twenty thousand dollars were wrongfully
paid to Sir Allan Neenah, but the Govern-
ment was, of °ours; innocent -it was a
clerk who did the mischief. The Metho-
dist body is instated from: Cartier's office,
but he is guiltless -the inevitable clerk
is dragged out to shoulder the responsi-
bility and censure. It must be . ver
pleasant for the clerks when praise is ' de
mended, it goes to their superiors; when
a blunder is committed, they are expected
to father it and bear with meekness the
pPnalty. It is probably the price the
Civil Service has to pay in return for
their .•
'Plenty of money and nothing to.do."

Penzence yesterday. Last year the Hon
Captain Vivian M. P. of Truro, obtained
a decree for a dissolution °ibis marinate
on the grounds of his wife's adultery with
the Marquis of Waterford. There was
no defence in the cause, but subsequently
and when the time came round for the
decree to be made absolute, Colonel Leslie
interfered in behalt of the friend of the
Marquis, but fubsequently 'withdrew,.
The Queens Proctor 'then asked for time
to make inquiries, and the Solicitor Gen-
eral stated. that itswas not a case in which
the Oro sn ought to interfere. The tiourt
now made the decree absolute, but with
regard to costs it would be a matter for

Where Fenianisna Begins.
••••
The suppressicn of Fenianism in Canada
is child's play as compared withe the ex-
tinction of that international §ipidemic in
England. Liverpool, like Ne York,con-
tams a vast number of poor meld lively
Irish, and. their condition is not such as to
make them love the British dispensation.
It is in London,however, that Irish misery
is most appalling. The small streets and
alleys between Holborne and the Strand
teem with Irish paupers, many of whom
are in the Most abjects state of destitution.
Nothing indeed is More hideous and
heartrending, amid all the terrors, of Lon-
don pauperism, than the aspect �f the Irish
huddled together in the fetisPalleys and
hovels that cluster around Holborn. Nak-
ed children covered with dirt, haggard
women with blank despair mitten upon
their faces, stupefied looking men, clothed
inrags and reeling willedrunkennesk are
thrown together pell mell in these abodes
of misery, and supply a contingent of des-
peradoes such as inay well strike the
WesteendLondoners with. dismay. • Such
is the fearful retribution Of a civilization
which aims to accumulate property in a
few hands, and reduce the nuisses to a
state of pauperism of which the poor Irish
in London form the legend.
Fenianiern is regarded in London as a
politicalevil originating. with the Irish in

theiroratory. A ball come off in the even-
ing, which was largely attended. I saw
Mr. Thomas McQueen for the last time at
that celebfation. Although be and I had
been at variance politically, he came to my
hotel, and arranged to call for me to go to
the dinner, but he did not come. I after-
wards saw him in the crowds but he had o
disappoint those present by- net speaking
as Whii intended, on account of illness. A
few days after my return home I received
a letter from...Mr. McQueen, apologising
for not keeping his appointment, and stat-
ing that he was toe ill to do more than
simply pat in an appearance at the ban-
quet.
Mr. McQueen was an extraordivary
man; originally a stone Meson, •he was
self-educated, a deep thinker, and a fine
poet. He mistook his vocation. however,
when he took up newspaper life, for which
he was ill adapted. He started the Cana-
dian in Hamilton Which soon proved a
sor_ry venture, and finally retired to God-
erich, where he stairted the Signet, now so
successful in the hinds of Mr. Cox. The
style of Mr. McQiieen was more that of
the essayist than the writer for a dailypap-
ea and he must have been ill-advised, in-
deed, when he decided te publish a daily
party organ. Had he been more widely
known than he was, he would have been
better appreciated; but he died in com-
parative obscurity, considering hefted been
the editor cif a daily paper, and a poet • of
bigh merit in his native country. There
have been few meamore worthy a niche in
the temple of fame." • .
