It will be seen that his crotchety

Notwithstitediug the long period that
has transpited deriug which the dispute
between the employer and eniplo,yeil has
,been going on with reference to the re-
. r
'itineration of the lattee, there appeare
to be as little likelihood of its settle -
merit to the BatiRfaction of both perties
now as thee, was many year ago.
During the past few years the loss in
the shape of wages atnearnal by idleness,
capital and manufactories, eac., .unem-
ployed on account of strikes, . has been
enormous, enough, We should imagine to
effectually put a stop to this mode of at-
tempting to irithease the wages of the

1ec1butt it seems it is riet, for no,w

ics ere becominap frequent in the west.
Arbitration, as a means of .settlement
of disputes• about wages •between -mas-
ters end men, hes been tried, sometimes
resulting bepeficielly, but en the whole
it is a failtite. The truth is, and .the
employed ehould. thoroughly understand
it, there is. no other mode or way of
fixing wages than the old and nechatige:
able one of supply and demand, and.
each employee Inuit he left to make his
-
•own terms with his employer; to adopt
and enforee any other way, either by the
'eMployed or employers, is :tyranny and
causes • great injustice. • Labor, ' like
• everything else,ashould be free to' be
*sold and bought for whatever it is worth

Sin,—The sapient pundit who controbi
the journal published in this village, in
hia reference to the case of Phillips vs. -
Wrighforwinacle a slight mistake when he
said that,s. verdict was given fer defendant.
INTOw in point of law no verdict was given
at all, the judge simply finding that the
pleas of the plaintiff had been informally
put, but at the satne time he gave judg-
ment that the amount sued . for was nob
excessive. A lion suit was therefore ren-
dered, leaving the question open to be
argued before the higher courts, as to
whether or not the finding of his lordship

cions luminary, whose proftindity is only
equalled by his, sagacity, should refrain
from trutnpetting till he isfreefrom dan-
ger Be:will be eurprised to, learn -that'.'

court of appeal, steps are being taken to

whistle the pathetic air "My heart is sad."
