Undertaking to. carry 6n a million dollar business on i00.0"0 capita, leads to lyin and cheating and ruins capital and labor both. 5. Inhumanity. When ' capital looks upon laborers as machines, and not n'en, it fails. These are The foes that weaken and destroy the benefi- cent powers of capital. i On the side of labor some of its prominent foes are: First, lack , of skill. Too many will not qualify themselvfj! and do their best, and they have no right to expect good pay without good work. Second, a discontente 1 spirit which ends in hps tile combinations, arraying labor against capital. Even when doing well discontent calls for a change. Third, downright dishonesty, loafing overwork. Many a mechanic who would scorn to steal half a dollar, would loaf and steal half an hour, or would slight his work. Fourth, in temperance. Too much of the labor er's wages go for beer or whiskey. If tbey saved that they might grow comfortable and rich, and acquire capital for themselves. , ; Greater intelligence, honesty, gen-1 erosity and brotherly love will remedy all these evils and kill the foes bn ei-i ther side. ! 1 ' - Status of the Next Senate. . .... -T J " ' .

Brjefc layer and Parson.' . "Be content with'such things as ye have; and envy no man's state " Every human being who disregards that advice wrongs his fellows and presumes on what he knows nothing about. .An English paper, the Litch field cH-Hrek. tells how a grumbling la! orer found out his mistake. A Manchester curate, walking j along the street in the dinner hour, p-.ssed a lot of bricklayers smoking their pipes, and he heard one of them say, I'd like to be a parson, and have nowt to do but walk along in a black coat, and carry a walking-slick in my hand, and get a lot of brass. There was an approving laugh all around, whereupon the curate turned quietly around, and the following con versation ensued, "So you would like to be a parson ? How much do you get a week V 'Twenty-seven shillings.' Well,' I am not a rich man; but J will give you twenty sevenshillings if yon will come with me for a week and see what my work is like. The bricklayer did not like the nroiMisal: but his mates told him it was a fair offer, and he. tfas bound to j accept it; So he reluctantly followed ! the parson down an alley. 'Where are you going" he asked. 'To see a sick parishioner,' was the reply. "What is the matter with him ?' 1 'Small-pox : At'this the man drew back. His wife and bairns had ' never had the small pox, and he i was afraid of tak ing it to them. '.Vly.wife and bairns have never had the small-pox, said the curate unci a-uc ouian ( Como, , -ru m.n nu;i(ll A SJ HWItMWii H)h, but you promised lo accom pany me wherever I went,' nrged the curate. . .'And where be yoii going next,' atbed the bricklayer. ... mm - ft -V lo see a poor lamily luuldlexi in one room, with the father dead of scarlet fever is it, and themselves a down with it: and, after (hat, to see another-: parishioner ill of typhus And to-morrow there will be a longer round.' " Thereupon, the bricklayer begged to be let off. Twenty-seven shillings would be poor pay for that kind of work, and he - promised lie would never speak ' against the parsons again. : The rtoiianzu King. A citizen of, San Francisco, who had amassed wealth by a fortunate investment in miuiug interest deter mined to cultivate the fire arts. He sent to Florence ' for a copy of the Veo us of Mi 1 5 ' ' in . marble. In the course of time, the commission wa9 accom pliscd, and the marble goddess', protected by wiappings and securely boxed, safely crossed the ocean and was transported" across the continent to the residence of the owner. - The box was unpacked, and the goddess in her celestial beauty, was revealed to his eager gaze. II is consternation may be imagined when he beheld his costly treasure nd veiled; .but without arms! How conld such an accident happen, and what had. become of the missng mem bers, for not a'vestige of broken mar ble rewarded his anxious search? His: indignation and disapointment weie unbonded in beholding a woman without arms where he had expected a master-piece of art. All the money in the world -hi itself will not give culture and taste. The bonanza kine. had never beatd the story of the; famous Venus of Milo He did not khow what almost all in telUgeni young people conld tell him, that this master-piece of sculpture was Lng np in the island of Milo just mo. ,,i ; irn... as it norvy stands in the Mosuem of the Louvre in Paris. Fruitless search has been made for the missing arms, and ' connoisseurs in art would give its. weight in gold a hundred times over if they could be found. The; statue, in which, the rich min er saw nothing but imperfection, has drawn forth the admiration of lovers of art ever since modern eyes have looked upon it. Few are the visitors in Paris who fail to spend .hours be- fore the marble shrine where the Ven- US of Milo ' stands enthroned, in wrapt appeciation of its almost celes- tl beauly.and few are the intelligent persons iu the civilized world who in marble, bronze, engraving, or poto graph are not familiar with the per fect, lineaments and the. faultless form of this embodiment of the genius of the past. A bonanza mine is not to be despis ed, but it falls alone to give to its possessor the resources for happiness hidden in a cultivated mind and re fined taste.

There has e has been considerable srossin ' imiiiiiC wie week relative to a very mi lioiiant change in the Cabinet. It is said tliat the 1 'resident wishes lo have Mr. Conkling at the head of his Cabinet, and that the present Secretary, Mr. Frelinghnysen, is to be sent, to England as successor to Mr. Lowell, and that Mr. Conkling Is to take bis place. If this change is intended, it will have to be made soon, because both appoint ments must lie. continued iy (he Senate, which will not remain long in ses sion. The Senate is well up with its work, and if the House were c-ually forward, there would be no reason for continuing the session longer than until the middle of June. The families of some Senators and members have al ready departed for their homes, cr for summer resort, though, as yet. we have had very little of the "etherial mild ness" that poets attribute lo Ibis season of the year.

The Cabinet of the President now consists of seven members, having charge, re spectively, of the War. Navy, State. Treasury, Interior, Justice, and Tost- office Deimrlments. Knm oii.i- mv.i;.! will lie a step toward the assumption by the Federal Government of Ihe ednca- j tional function that is now divided by the the Public School Systems of the ! various States, and, at no distant da v.! we may have another Cabinet Officer , I to known as the Secretary of l'ublic Instruction. There, could lie much said f0l. and against such a measure. The question of State Hk'hts would be revived. The demon of centralization WOuld be paraded by the nress. and on ' the stump; but, if the big Leviathan Jumbo establishment, known as the j Government l'rinting Oflice, could Ik; only be used to print cheap arthmetics j and spellers, instead of the millions of ! useless documents now thrown out, 1 ; think the country would profit by it. At least one advantage would be gained '. by the consolidation of our hydra-headed i educational system. A uniform set of ; text-books be introduced throughout thi broad land ; and a homogeneous method of instruction and expression, inculcated in youth, would tend to the destruction ; of local prejudice, and promote thej sentiment of national cohesion.
