The office of Bureau ofSta‘tistic‘s of LabOr

the aggregate number or skilled and unskilled
laborers, "male- and female, out of employ-
ment in Massachusetts, J uue 1, 1878.” 3 -'_
These figures are the result of systematic
investigation conducted on scientific princif
pies, and, say the officials, “we have no fear
of successful refutation." They then proceed
to remark: .-
‘“It has been reported, and ' the report has
been industriously circulated, that there are
from 200,000 to 300,000 people out of em-
Boston; 8,000,000 in the United States, &c.
This last figure has been quoted in papers,
works on political economy, speeches in Con:
gress, political resolutions, &c., till it has
come to be believed everywhere; and yet
this is the first attempt officially, or in »:any.
other. way to ascertain the facts. We; say
itbe figures reported herein are reliable. We
have given the croaker the benefit of every
doubt. 'When the board of assessors of any
town or the authorities of any city have dif-
fered among themselves as to the number of
unemployed, we have without exception
used the largest number; we have not been‘
content even to halve the difference. We
shall not, therefore, make any argument after
this statement is given to the public; we
have criticised everything pertaining to it
with severity ourselves, and do not hesitate
to make known all the weak points, that
others may know all that enters into the state-
‘mcnts."
Of this comparatively small number, a
“large percentage"ure of that hateful class
of vagabonds who will not work under any
consideration, born loafers, who are to be
found in the most flourishing communities,.-
always idle, wretched and whining abouti
These people will always exist

“We have had enough of industrial hypo-.
chrondriil, and it is time the people recogniz-
ed the facts in the case, and acted according.
ly. The industrial stagnation and depression
has been, and is, severe enough; but every
sign indicates sure recuperation. ‘ The people
are growing stronger every month, and,
while this country will not jump into pros-
perity,“ will find itself farther along during
tho next six out elvemontlis than it would

the 'assilrance unmet ifroul- cvery. hand, by re-
ports to thid office ”from all parts Of the Com-
monwealth, that employers of labor are
starting up, or are preparing to start up, this
fall." .
The Office notices one cause of the heroes
ed competition for work in the ordinary
walks of industry, which people _ in, general
have not considered. It shows‘hOw intimate-
ly related the diner'ent: grades of— society are,
and how mic—rested all should be inacommon
prosperity. Often timesa poor man, envious
of a more fortunate neighbor, sourly rejoices
over his pecuniary misfortunes. Let us see
how such embarrassment affects the poorer
man. ~
“The army of the unemployed—always too
large—has of late been largely augmented
from a class not furnishing competitors four
years ago. By the census of 1875, Massachu.
settshad 13,961 sons and 42,156 daughters
over fifteen years of age, doing nothing what-
ever, living at home, not attending school
even, simply dependents—the sons and
daughters of well-to-do-parents. From this“
class—numbering in all 56,117—there have
been large numbers of recruits to the ranks
of labor, thus giving to laborers in all branch-
‘es fresh competitors from ranks which had
never before furnished labor. Broken fortunes,
collapsed atocks, bursted bubbles, in fact, the
crash of inflated personal credits, have driven
from the army of dependents,thousands who,
with influence and friends. have crowded.
upon the toilers of other: days. j These. ’9',
eruits seek the better? places, so called—the}
clerkships, &c. ,—and every time one succeeds
it is at the expense of another, who very
often steps down on the ladder, glad of any
employment." '

There's some one living in this town,
(Maybe you know her name, -
And maybe, should I write it down,
Your own might prove the same.)
Who, when you say, “He’s good,” will cry
“ Indeed! You think that 's true
But, very confidentially, '
“ You wouldn't—if you knew 1”
One says, what pretty girl goes by 2"
Oh, horrors! you don’t think.
o!—Since we’re you and I,
I'll say her parents drink.
And she—well, I won't tell it out
Though I’ve no doubt ’tis true.
You think she’s nice and pretty-,ébut
You wouldn’t, if you knew 1”
If one slugs sweetly, “How she flats I”
If dressed in taste, “ What style f"
Supremely "Vulgar" all her hats,
Her dresses simply “ vile.”
And when good Deacon Busdy failed,
(A noble man and true,)
She said, when we his lot bewailed,
“ You wouldn’t—if you knew 3”
Let those admire and love who can
This malice-breathing dame,
Who seems to think a prosperous man
Must surely be to blame;
That beauty is a mark of sin ;
That goodness must be crime;
She sees but thieves and rascals in
The heroes of that time.
ISometimes she doesn't hesitate
To tell us what she knows,
And in nine cases out of eight
A lie is all she shows.
For virture’s sake, I hope to find
One good old doctrine true.
Some heat for such Ishould not mind,
You wouldn’t—if you knew.

Fishing for Fun.
I landed my first pickerel the first evening
we were on Lake Minnetonka. I am nota
skillful fisherman. I told the boys that I
could do a little plain fishing but I didn't want
to be set down for anything with any kind
of fluiting embroidery, knife-planting, or any-
thing of that kind abOut it. I fished from
the shore, by the side of a veteran fisher, Mr.
A. K. Dunlap, of Titusville. He knows
every fish in the lake by name. He can tell
by the movement of the line what kind of a
fish is at your book. Something ran away
with my line.
“It’s a pickerel,” shouted Mr. Dunlap, in
intense excitement. “ A big fellow. Take
out yourlines,” he yelled to the rest of them.
“ Give him plenty of room! Play him” he
shrieked at me. “Let him run!» Keep your
line taut! Don’t give him an inch of slack!
Look out! Don’t let him do that again!
Let him run! Now .bring himin this-—
Look out! Don’t let him do that again l,’
By this time I was so. excited-I was on the
point of throwing down the pOle and rushing
out in the lake intendingto run the fish down
and kick it to death. .I screamed to Mr.
Dunlap: ‘
“You take the pole and land him, I. never
can." .
He refused. He turned and; hurled his
own pole, lance fashion into the woods.
‘fjflerel” he shouted,_rnshing down the
bank about twenty feet below me, stopping
down and spreading out his-arms. "Here!
Now! Bring him in here through the shoal
water! I’ll get him! Careful, nowl Care-
ful, now! Careful! Steady ! . Ah—-_—",
And flip, flap, I had him on the shore. He
was a beauty. A little sunfish' about three
and a half inches long.
It Was a long time before we said anything.
Dr. Dunlap climbed a big birch tree in the
top of which his pole had lodgedyand we
resumed our fishing. Presently Charley
Armkuecht coughed, and I said :
‘.‘ How funny the frogs sound over in the
marsh.” '
And then we laughed a long time :at the
frogs. A long, long time and very heartily.
They were very funny frogs.
But Mr. Dunlap fished on very silently;
and by and by he said the fish would’nt
bite when there was .much noise. So we
held our bush and the fishbit. But they
didn’t bite any of us very badly.
The fishing is excellent most anywhere in
the lake. That evening on the upper lake
one of the boys caught nine largepickerel.
When we came to count the fish, however,
it appeared that he had caught one pickerel
nine time. Is was a very large fish and -
they are going to have its skin dried whole
for a spectacle case. I caught more fish than
any one else in the party, but they were all,
with one exception catfish, and Named to
my amazement, that I had disgraced myself
and the lake. Why isn’t a fish a fish I'd
like to know i-chkeyc.

the Spanish throne, imprisoned by order of

After thirty-three years in this living tomb,
death came to hisrelease, and the following
remarkable researches taken from the. bible,
{and marked with an old nail on the rough
walls of his cell, told how the brain sought
employment through the weary years:
In the Bible the word Lord is found 1,853
times, the word Jehovah 6,855 times, and the
word Reyerend but once, 'and'that in Pealm
cxi. 9. The 81h verse of; Psalm cxv. is the
middle verse of the Bible. The 9th verse of
Esther viii. is the longest verse, and John xi.
31 is the shortest. In Psalm cvii. four verses
are alike—the 8th, 15th, 21st and 31st. Each
verse of Psalm cxxxvi. ends alike. - No
names or words with more than six, syllables
are found in the Bible. Isaiah xxxvii. and 2
Kings xix. are alike. The word Girl occurs
but once in the Bible, and that in Joel iii. 8.
There are found in both books Of the Bible,
5,586,483 letters, 773, 693‘ .words, 31,373
verses, 1,189 chapters, and 66 b_‘ooks.- Acts
of the Apostles xxvi. is the finest chapter to
read. Psalm xxiii. is the most beautiful chap-
ter in the Bible. John xiv. 2, John vi. 37
St. Matthew xi. 28, and Psalm xxxvii. 4, are
the four most inspiring promises in the Bible.
Isaiah ix. 1 is the verse for the :new Converts
to study. All who flatter thein‘sechs' with
vain boastings of their perfectne‘ss', should
learn Matthew vi- All humanity should
learn St. Luke vi. from the 20th verse to its
ending.

A “Sanctified’? woman.
In a recent camp-meeting, a woman related
her experience in giving up certain articles of
ornament and gay attire that she had loved.
She said that first she resolved to wear no
more artificial flowers, gay-colored ribens,
handsome silks, ear ornaments, or brooches;
but one idol remained. It was her wedding
ring. At last she resolved to'throw this away
too, and when she did it the blessing of sanc-
tification came. The Methodist says :'T“As
she stood in the audience relating the great
change that had come over her, she displayed
an immense mass of false hair‘ wound up on
the back of her head, upon which was mount-
ed a top-knot of a hat,,neither a protection
from the sun or cold, nor ornamental to be-
hold. She disclosed beneath a half cast-off
shawl a muted wallet which was reduced to
such diminutive proportions as to appear
painfully abnormal. She sported puddings,
.pumngs, pannier and (pin-back, and a dress-
skirt sadly bedraggled to a depth of several
inches which it dragged upon the ground. As
she sat down after her testimony,- and an ex-
hortation to-erring sistersflto renounce all the
pomp and glory of the World, she plied 1181'
fan and panted very much like a bat-room
belle who had waltzed too long and was
dressed too tightly to breathe with case.
When, at the close of the meeting, the wo-
man walked away, sbe had a parasol, a fan.
and a hymn book to hold 111 one hand, and
the other was employed in gathering and
holding the front breadth or her skirts high
enough to enable her to step, while the limit
of her mincing gait was determined by her
contracted pin-back and stilted boot-heels.
