EpixbUBGE, May 6, 1874, Tho temperance-crusade which hay been sgi- tating the zealous tectotalers of the United States to such 2 remarkable degreo es to awaken in some sanguine souls faise hopes of an imme- diate Millennium, is not confined to that country. Scotlsnd, that land of whisky-bibbers, has also felt its Llood stirred and its conscience awakencd by acrusade,—in disguise, to be sure,—but never- theless n temperance revival. Whatever good they may dertve from the movement, THEY MUST THANE CHICAGO FOB, as the religious enthusiasts who commenced the action are no other than Moody sud Ssukey, known poseibly to the heathen of their own city, bat, like sll prophots, better honored in foreign lande. These men—whetber working fo- getber for the benefit of their own pockets, or from o philanthropio idea of doing good to their fellow-men, I will not ven- ture to eay, which have Leen bolding revivals in Glasgow and Edinburg, to which great numbers c©f tue lower ciasses huve been attracted, drawn taere by theix curiosity to see men who proclsim themeelves uneducated and illiterate like them- telves, but who boast of bolding a mission from Divine Providence to preach the Gospel of Hu- msuity to the world. After hearing them, one does not feel inclined to criticise their stylo, con- tent to accept their own estimate of their ability 85 orators. Their great effort has been the war upon whis! This is a bold attack upon one of the things in this world dearest toa Scotchman's beart, and is, indeed, carrying the war into Africa; for, to the Scotchman as to Paddy, “Bresd may b tho stafl of hife, but whisky 18 life 1tself.” 4 A gentlemsn liviog bere told ms of an instance in tus own experience to illustrate the agitation which arose smong the lower class from this crosade and the resnlls, not to say benefits, de- rived fromit. Xe said: * One poor fellow, ‘Who hus worked for our family these many years, 2nd whoee children aroall in our employ, lives an the Canuongate, bere in Auld Reekie, He is = cubinet-maker by tiade, and does the general yeurly patchivg and reburnishing of our old fur-~ niture. His wife, a good soul, but addicted to the boitle, was much affected by the enthusiasm of these Chicago men,—«o much so, indeed, that she worked upon tho feelings of Jamio to such an extent that he went to the meetings bimeelf, and afterward, when the ladies came to him preyiug end beseeching him to sign the pledge, he did so. Meeting me ebortly safter, Lo told me what; he hLad done, saying, however, *“I've no ta'en the pledue except with condizions.” Not in the least surprised to hear this, I inquired the usturs of the conditions. 1t had been agreed, it scews, buiween *the mis- tress"—his wife—and himself that one would keep tho pledge as long a8 the other did. The mext Saturday evening they went to 1 - gate. participating in the geueral festivities of thar remarkatle scene, The Cowgste, by the way, cu Saturdzy night is THE DRUNKEST PLACE IN CHEISTENDOM. Jamie is sure ‘* the mietrces " was the first to . break the contract, and *the mistrees” has her gmol o the contrary, from the fact that she met amie in * Bobbie's closo ” with a bottle in Lis fist. Whether be or ehe first took the whisky, is & questios which even a Scotch Judge would hesitate to settle, and one which will forever femain & mystery- "The Cowgate in Edinburgh—so called from early times, when it was worthy of the presence of these amiable animals, their virtuous keepers and pretty milkmaids—thows now no sign of over baviug beens green country-pasture, a Jand of milk and honey. And, indeed, there is pre- cious little milk to be discovered in the *‘Dai- ries”; for they aitempt to perpetuate the sur- roundings of the past by thus fancifully naming their ealoons. It is a low, winding street, which, in rome unaccountable manner, has Lept its former level, though the streets about it have been filled up; and what was once & revine is to-day bet u narrow pass, walled up on éither side by tall tenement-houses, over which the cross-streets pavs on bridges as high as the house-tops themselves. T'hia strcet in inbab- ited, a8 one might judge from its nature, by - tho very poor of-the city. Their rags hang out of the windows and stuff up the cracks, unttd you wonder how they have enongh left to make the wretched covering which clothes their bodies. Still, it is really surprising how little clothing they wear during the cold months of wicter. Women, and children of tender years, but, judging from their endurance, of tough bodiés, roum the streets by night and day, often with but ooe garment, and that = mass of rags, until chanty compels one to beheye that they are hardly to blame after all for being such hard drinkers, though it is more likely that their cor dition is the outgrowth of their depravity in this very matter. ut the Cowgate on Ratarday night is certainly A MORE SPIRITED SCENE THAN TIE CARNIVAL 3t Rome. The Italians’are not witty, and their buffoonery is tiresome ; but s Scotchman in whisky is 88 good 8 a rober Irishman. They do pot_grow viciously riotous, but ouly noisy in their fun. Ou tirst entering the street, we were nssailed by & siream of virtuous rhetoric, 5o unexpected 22d 80 astonishing that we stopped to get & view of the orator. 1le proved to be no lcss & person than “Dodge Haugman,’—a name which I learned, upon 1nquiry, had been given him be- cause of a facalty which be possesses, in com- mou with the Artful Dodger, of avoiding the wrath of Juetice. He was at’ prescnt occupied in mimicking the etyle of tho great Chicago proachere, and, excopt for bis size and ovident youth, and the juvenile aud rollickivg sppear- ance of his andieuce, 1 should have been almost deceived into believing that there had spaung up In this Bodom omo good mon. ~ The young fellows seemed mell plewsed with the sentiments which flowed from Lis tongue with such ease and finency ns %0 justify the belief that he had grown up in the odor of sancuity, und had been bred to & virtuous sbhorrence of all spirituous liquors. Any such delusion, however, was lguichly digpelled by the appearance of s young Highlander, in demi-cos- lume, with two' glasses of whisky which he had procured at tho nearcst bar, one of nhich he pre- sented 1o the fatigued orator with the customa- oy invitation, “Here's to ye.” Dodge Hang. mean's manner of disposing of the bevorage wes, £0 say the least, professional; and bis grave fn vitation, immediately after, upon discoverin, sur etrange faces in the crowd, that we shouly some forward and sign the pledge—for the prager Koeping of which, 1n consideration of A TEEAT ALL DODND, be would promise the prayers of the meeting— Erought the laugh upon us, 5o that we were giad 20 move on and leave them to enjoy their fun unmoleated. The reat of the strost presentod a yaried ecene of intoxication in all its stages. Bome wera disgustingly drunk, but many more sould bo seenin that hilarious stage which & Scotchman seldom oxceeds, wisely adhering to the old adage, ** Too much'of a good thing in good for nothing.” Our attention was next ar- rested by a line of urching walking slong in & dazed, unstosdy manner. in exaggerated mocke: of atall, ungainly figure at their hesd, I in. quired of a woman at the door of ome of the hooses, who Was calling upon the children to # mind their mannors andlesve a poor daft gen- tloman geug bis in gate,” who the crazy man was. ‘*Sure he's no a crazy man ; it's DAFT BLACKIE FBA THE UXIVERSITY." * Prof. Blackic!" exclaimed our escort. *Im- poesible! What is he doing here 7" “ Avk the eame question of hissélf, and he'llno tell ye; and he's as like to stop at Grayfriams Kizk, or the top of Salisbury Crags, .as the University, for his night's lodging.” Our friend explained to us that this was in- doed Prof. Blackie,—one of the greatest clas- gical echolars of our time, and & member of the Feculty of Edinburgh University, noted in the city for his absent-mindedness, and known to the poor s *Daft Blacki He told us an anecdoto of his peculiarity which proved him loss & dreamer than many would otherwise sup- pose. He was visiting in the neighborhood of Lord Campbell's estate ono snmumer, sud, dur- ing one of his walks, wandered quite near the family mansion. IHis Lordship, chaucing to stumblo upon the old gentleman, expressed hia astonishment and pleasure &t tinding him in that part of the world, eaying, at_the same time, I believe you don't know me, Professor?” “That's not to be wondered at,” replied the old caiben. *There's more fools kuow Daft Blackie than Daft Blackie knows." i His gruff respoose, however, did not forfeit bim the friendshup of the Campbells; they in- sisted upon hia remaining with them the rest of the summer, and did nl?in their power to make his stay agreeable; and that is best done by loaying himi alone. One curious fcature of the Cowgate drinking is the absonce of customers about the bars of the ealoons. The bartender stands bebiud his counter, constantly pouring out the varions con- coci.ous with the air of a mastor of the srt, but there is no sign of idlers abont the roow. Hero then is the explanation of s remark made to me one day by a son of the soil: “ Wher a Scotchman gets drunk, he doos it like a gentleman. You never ee 1 Scotland men come into a saloon as they do in Amorica, and, standing at the bar, call for one glass after an- other, until they bave succceded in drowning their Wits. There is a sociability about a Scotch- man's geuting drunk which takos the curso off of it.” Thia sociability consists of sitiing down in dismal Little holes at the back of the ealoons, and drioking with oue_or two companions. If this takes the curso off of the deod, surely to get drunlk as a ford. MUST MITIQATE THE BIN ITSELF. If theso people have been iu the least im- proved by the lste revival, there must huve been great room for improvement, for I canuot con- ceive of anything more utterly depraved than their present state. .\e havo evory 1eason to believe that the right measure has not yet beon taken, and that public praying and singing, aud inconsiderate signing of pledges, only open a new field of profanity and backsliding. Kate Tield is right. You must substitute something for their whisky. Hot soup may do iu somo mild cases, but I am afraid it would go o very little way toward mitigating the gencral evil. However, the suggestiou is worth a trial. Itis a no small thing to ave cven one poor soul, when we think of the sacred promise of the joy in heaven over such a trimmnph. V. —_— WORKING WOMEN. To The Editor of The Chicago Tribune: Siz: Being & workiug woman at the present time, I am perbaps more especially intorcsted in overything that concerus them, directly and in the abstract. Iread everything I see in print on either side of the question, and puzzle my brains over their condition and tho cause, when my brains are not otherwiso muddled over my em- ploser's lodger, orin the oft-repeated effortsat decipheriog the bhieroglyphio chirography in which a thousand country lawsers and Justices disguise thoir opinions, and tho fruitless cn- deavor to bring intellectusl order out of the chaos of capitsls and punctustiop-marks with which they besprinkle s page. It is not an especially original remark, that effects are the result of & canso; but every oue who feols ealled to oxpressan opinion on tho woman question evidently forgets the fact. They seize on a salient wouknees, and, like Tenuyson's brook, go on forevor. Perhaps half the labor might get tothe bottom of the well where tho truth is supposed to lie. Thero is & loug list of complaints ageinst women ss workers, a reieration of which I spare tho reader; tho one who Lms gone thus far Lnows them as well us L That thore is much justico in mauy of them, I kuow; and rank injusticé in many more of 'them, I also know. Theresre two sides even to this question. But, for argument’s sake, we will admit sll tho bad qualitics and ignore the good oues, and accept their general incompe- teucy. Is not that siutc of aflairs s result? Women 2re born babios, like men, not grown-up incapables. But womeu, as a class, will not work unlosa they are obliged to; I mosn, will not go into active business as bread- earners. Thore i8 occasioually one who preforas boiog an__objoct of uptumed DOWeS t0 TUATIIAGE WIthout sympathy, or » de- pendence that it akin to beggary ; of who bas & restlews mind and heart, that, inding no natural chanoel for their Bwift currents, overflow and cut their own through fields horetofore sacred to men ; but thoso are the cxeaptions. Girls are taught from their cradles that pretti- nesais oll that is required of them. The first thing their little minds take in is the fact that the protty baby, the well-dressed buby, is tbe favorito. The pretty, well-dressed scliool-gurl receives the - tender aitention of _the teacher, and the awkvard efforts of the blushing school-boy to show his prefer- euce. Asa young lady, ber wlite hands, Ler dimples, her novby diesses, secure her opera and theatre tickote, drives ou the boulevards, attendance at lecture and concert, and, at lust, the magnuin bonum of civilization,—a good ket tlement. The same girl knows that, were she & clerk behind a counter, before & ledger, makiny change, sending telegrams, driving mathematics into the bullet-bieads of boyy, or drilling tho fin- ers and tougues of fippant girls, ebe wou!d_be Fite1o solitary enjoyment Of her ' weary braius, bands, and feet. 11, by sheer force of personal attraction, she wins the attention of & man anything Like ber equal in caltiyation, tou to one he ia ashamed to own his acquaintance to his rich relatives: and, if his Qeart gota the better of Lim, and e iapses into a proposal of mariiage, ho eithor ignomin- ously sueaks out when Lo thinks it over, or throws his manly self upon her generosity for s releass from ties that would clip Lis engle wings, and prevont his £oaring into some rich man's daugh- ter's affections. Nor is it from men of this age and stamp only thata working women rceives the reminder that. sbe i goparated from the dear, woolly, lit- tlo lambs, aud put among the Lorned, Lairy oats. Bho may present herself, well-bred, well- drossed, well-educated, st the door of a_church. It eufliciently stunning in style.—good judgos too, sextons are,—she will be desirably locatad, and become tho favored recipient of au ogle from the young men, and of guess on the price of her Iaco from the women. DBut, whexn she comes o & conference with the Pew-Commiticn, and they lesrn thet ebe is n Lookkeeper for Slow & Steady, or hend-raleswoman for Fail & Swindleum, she may go to that church till she is n sccond Methuselah, and nover be on speak- ing terms with a person in it, not even the pastor. “ Prejudiced " Am I? Kot 8o, my conser- vative 1riend; Ican give youthe names of parties in this very city who will prove my statement true, and it was told me in this wise : While Prof. Swing was preachingin McVicker" Theatro, I, with maoy others, sought his entlo ministrations, and, having no carrage, f patronized the mnational buggy. One Bunday morning I met in the car a most estima- blo woman, o milliner, who had mado my bon- nets in times past. -Across the aisle sat the pastor of 3 prominont Protestant church. She modestly, and with no_spparent temper, in- formed'me that she bad aiways attended that pastor's church, Lsd rented a pow there several years, had communcd there, but Lad never | spoken to the Reverend gentleman or any of Lis people, I glanced across at tho minister a5 she finished. He sat with bis brow drawvn into & plous frown, snd lus lips tightly cloed. ** Thinking of Lis sermon,” said & dimpled girl on my right. * More likaly on resl estate,” retorted & dark- browed womsn on ber left. is not & solitary instance; thera aro thousands of them iu every woman’s oxperience, if only they would tell them. If nskod, they will admit them with & sigh, or a laugh, and_nsk you, in return, what you ire going to do aboat it. " You can't help yourself, my dear, and, in dashing your head against the wall of public opinion, son only loso Sour head and don't harm © wall," my philosophio friend esid to me when I expressed indignation at it. Taking those few facts, patent to all observ- orz, into considoration, it ia easy to see why cal- tared women dread entering the ranks of work- ing women. They arolike tho educated quad- roons of New Orleans,—that fell outgromth of Slavery,—no match for their white-blooded fathers, and totally separated from thoir black- blooded mothers. Well-bred women ahrink from suffering these poignant thrusts more publicly than they can help, aud, when obliged to work hide themselves in’ offices and counting-rooma, where there is tho least possible exposure, - The position of a clerk, even though the father be a millionsire, is honorable tothe boy of & family, but casts sn_indefinsble, thongh inexe orable, stigma on bis sister. Wero this not the case, do yon not think we shonid bave prett, woll-bred, intelligeat women in all departments of trade, instead of being the whito-handed beg- gars they are now? A girl's instincts are all right when she is born. Every mother knows bow hard it is to make her understand why she should bring her father's slippers, or carry bis newspaper, or do her consin's errands, or ron to the neighbor’s for her mother, for love, while Tom gets 5 cents to epend a8 ho pleases ; and how much careful weeding has to be done before every honest imoulse is rooted out of the girl, and she is made the helpless, innocent, know-nothing and do-less which all men want their wives to be until they have been married & year or two. The motto which Dante wrote over the door of Holl might as well have becn written over the entrance of every avenue to womau’s work ; for, unless sho be a genius, she who entors does in- deed leave hope behind. The remedy? I do not know, unless it be in equalizing the sexes ; ‘and by this I do not mesn the orditary twaddle included under that name. 1 mesn the equal education of girls and boys; making it as disgraceful for one to be a beggarly dione as tho other; teaching & boy that a wife something more than a pink-and-white doll; teaclung & girl that marriage is something more than selling berself for a home and support; tosching tuem both that labor iy honorsble, and that it is just snd proper, and no cause for social ostracism, if & man and his wife work side by side, until Nature sends to one the appointment of a highor work, —Motherhood. » Wien this time comes, a man will marry s Now, coruer-lots-and-acres proposes to woman. baul-stock; grizzled woslth buys dimpled youth; tho fat, fair, and forty widow of = nmillion = purchases the straight- limbed young Hercules for whom some dove- Mignon breaks her heart.

Shall we load a cannon to shoot a robin then ? A query which always arises whon I see & 200~ pound man solling needies and pins. Will the Millennium have come ? F.B. S AMONG THE PUBLISHERS. The first subscription-publisher In the West was Henry Howe, who publishied and sold on subscription a book of allogories. At the expira- tion of fiffeen years he republished it undor the title of **The Bible Looking-Glass "; and, as there was at that time but fittle competition, it was & great success. But, previous Lo the Re- beltion, tho subscuption-publishing business had not reachied tho gigantic proportions it bas since attained. During the late Civil War, when every one was anxious to obtain the latest news, those who lad nover given any attention to rosding any- thing except their own local pewspapers now de- ‘manded . information of the contest waging be- tween the North and South ; the points at issue ; the movements of the various portions of the army; the history of every great battle, with all its minute details,—the result of which was, that the masses acquired a taste for reading and a thirst for knowledge. Men of enterprise are quick fo realize the wants of the public, and they were not slow to see this growicg demanda for literature. It had been clear! demonstrated thousands of times that ten persons will parchase a good book WHEN SOLICITED TO DO SO, where not more than one would- ever call for it ata bookstore. T'ne subscription-business, too, covers the whole country, and reaches not only the cities and towns, but every viliage and ham- let, overy highway aud byway, of the land; and the canvassing agent, with bis books, carries useful kuowledgo into many localities where it might ncver ponctrato by any other means. So eager had the people become for books, such a | thirst tor knowledgo had been created by the War, and such an impetus bad been given to the subscription-trade, that soveral * trashy " books were gold, which, for a time, brought subscrip- tion-publishers into bad repute. of the War, however, tho trade steadily im- proved. Thé people had acquired a taste for roading, aud tho demand for books is, up to this date, constautly increasiug ; the more 80 as the subscription-trade is now in the hands of honorable men. It is interesting to note, as an evidence of the improvement aud diserimination of the masses in rogard to reading matter, that it is impossible for an agent to push a worthless book. A book, to mect with ready eale, must possess some in- trinsic valuo to recommend it to the reading vublic. This is the more gratifying when it is rememtered that Lho largest and most remuner- ative fiold for the canvassing agent is villages, emall towns, agricultural and mining communic ties ; and farmors, mecbanics, clerks, iutelligent Iaborers and factory opcratives, miners, small shopkeepers, and men of moderato means, are the best buyers in the world of subscription- ‘books. . There was a time when there was a rogular warlare between subscription-publishers aud trade-publishers, the ill-will being mostly on the eide of the trade. But the subscription-plan met the wants of & large class of poople, end proved such an immense success that nearly all tho trade-publishers have now A SUDSCRIPTION-DEPARTMENT, in which they never sell except through canvass- ing agente, among whom are Appletons, Scrib- ners, Osgood & Co., aud many otbers. Itis al- &0 a notable fact that books of a epecial charac- ter, or the best cluss of their publications, are sold by subscription; aud the fact that a publish- er can seil s much larger number of books by AuhuuiYuou than through the stores has becomo 80 well established that many of our bost authors refuse to write for publication in spy otlier way. Another fact that recommends books sold in this way is, tbat the publisher has mo largo wholesale Louse, with its high rent and expen- sive clerke; no handsome retail stors, with all 1ts costly equipage. Only one man, tho agent, comes between the Eubfi!ber and the geller, ani the purchaser_ can_have a book cheaper than he could buy one, of the same size and manufac- ture, st the regular bookstore. The subscription-plan takes the precedence of the plan of peddling books, from the fact that, when a peddler calls on & person of small means and offers a valuable book for sale, however much be may fecl tho need of it and wish to purchase it, he cannot do £o, because he has not tho money wherewith to pay; but, if the agont takes his name, acd engagos to deliver the book at a certain period in the future, the purchaser can lay his plans accordingly, and have the necessary sum by the time speeined for the de- livery of the book. Bubscription-publishers embrace A WIDER RANGE OF SUBJECTS than they did formerly, which may be classed as follows: Books of "solid information,—such s Dhistorics and standard biograpbios; books of a practical character, designed for use,—as Home-Physicians, popular ~lasw books, voterinary works, eto.; books on biblical or religious subjects: works of entertainment, comprising instructive facts in connection with lighter aud uimp}l{ agreeable reading,—such as books of travel and personal adventures, explora- tio0s, voyages, some kinds of autobiogrsphies, otc.; and, lsstly, those of a flashy ond purely sonsational character,—such as are apt to hava the term, * secrots,” **myatorics,” or * rosela- tions,” come in somewhere on the title-page. Tew of the last-named class merit a place in the library of any one, while some of them are do- cidediy objectionable. It is an undeniable fact, and speaks well for the reading public, that the large majority of this class of books degrads ard seriously injure the subscription-business, None but an unprincipled publisher will lend bis assistance to the circulation of an improper book, while the succeseful canvasser will aroid the whole catalogue. Books #old by eubscription-publishers are usuelly the works of well-known authors, who haye bean before the public for yenrs, and have goined a wide reputation. Sometimes, however, a work by s person comparatively unknown, if it is upon s popular subjoct and written in pleasing etyle, proves an immense succoss. A publisher cannat always tell which work will succeed best, this or that; and' sometimes hs, in common with other mortals, MAKES MISTAKES. S81d one publisher: I waa agreeably dissp- pointedin tha rale of a book eatitlod * The Paysi- cal Life of Women.” I snticipated a sale of about 20,000 or 30,000 volumes, but it takes im- mensely, aud is destined to an uitimate sale of 250,000 : His mistake consiated in judging from a man's standpoiot. He bad no idea how hungry and thirsty women have become for a knowledge of themeolves,—eager 1o learn from any source which may present itself. Excellent as these books are, they are yet faulty, inasmuch as they are written by men, who never were women, con- Be%ucnuy have never had a woman's experience, and cannot, in the very nature of things, com- prebend all of women. This is a field for women alone ; and we shall better understaud ourseives, whils ‘our brothers will better understand us, when some talented lady-physiciap, who has passed through el the difersnt phases of woman's life, wnd in the light of her own expe- rience, mded by ber intelligent observation, writes & book for women, We predict that euch % work wonld bo & still greater uccess than :* The Physical Life of Woman,” which was writ- ten by a gentloman-physician. Bome wrters. bave been unjust o book- apents, classing them with loafers, too lazy to earn & living by work, while many have troated them uncivilly. This has undoabtedly been done from a want of knowledze, and from the From the close | prejudice formerly existing against tho business. Asits true character and_excellont resuits are becoming better understood, this pm?ud.\we is rapidly fiying out, especially in the last few ears, since some of the very best books,’on & arge’ variety of topics, ever issued from the American press, bave boen brought out in this way. and have had a circulation from ten to twepty times greater than they could ever have sttained througn the less direct means of the ‘book-stores. - ‘The true theory of this businees is, that the interests of the pablisher and tho canvasser are ONE AND THE BAME, and is conduoted upon this idea. Thereforo, tho most succesaful publishers are those who not only act honorably and m‘xgl. but aro_also prompt and accommodating in all their dealings with their agents. One publisber showed me several letters from agenls in the fleld, which, he eaid, were a fair sample of their correspondence. Theso letters, borutifully written, in good etyle, proved that book-agents ss a class ore cultivated men and womon,—for womon, too, are in this dopart- ment, and are sometimes very successful. “Lady-cauvassers,” said my informant, “usually succeed best with works of a religious character, or thoss classified as books of entertamment. Sometimes, however, they vie with the best male canvasser in the sale of thoss practical works which are intended for family or domestic use, such oa Home-Physicians, good, popular works on spacial subjects in medical practice, cook- books, receipt-books, and others of a pimilar cbaractor. This businees ia like all others In that tho best man or woman succeeds the best. While the majority of agonts make fair wages, the most intelligent—those possessing tho greatost busi- ness-capacity—make from £50 to $80 per week. One agent Intely refused to take a salary of $150 per_month, because the profits on his sales ex- coedod that sum. The winter before last, ouo young man worked his way through the Univer- sity at Evanston by canvassing for s Puulmher on Satardays and during vacation. A lady can- vassod in Bouthern Wisconsin for two years. During that time she paid her son's expenses at » modical colloge in this city, and he is now en- aged in & lucrative practice in Green Lake “ounty, Wisconsin. Last winter, when a large vumber of mon woro unemployed, & lady-szent in Michigan sold books enough to malke a clear protit of $4.50 per day, after paying traveling- expenses and hotel-bills. 1t pays to bo HONORADLE IN BUSINESS. Almost any kind of trade may be conducted sno- coustully for & short time on dishonorable prin- clples; ~ but it masc, soouer or later, fail. Thorough business-men understand this; thoy know thie value of a good_reputation, and they know it can be aéquired only by fair dealing; and they aim to fle-l(}umy. notonfy themselves, but, as far as they can, to compel others in their branch of business to do the same, a8 one dis- honorable man in any one trade injurcs all others engaged in that particular branch. This is true of the publishing business. It is uow 80 suc- cessful partly becauso it is in the hands of hon- orable men who endeavor to obtain honorablo agents. These agents conscientiously fulfill all their promises to purohasers, and gain their con- fidence by dolivering books' equalin overy ro- spect to the representations they gave them of the works. This mode of procedarc has made the rolation between publisher, agent, and purchaser, a very agroeable one; and the same agent traveling over the same territory & second or third time atmost invariably finds bis eales exceed thovo of his previous campsign. The subscription-businoss thus conducted, upon legitimate sod houorable principles, by men and women of strict integrity, han grown to bo of immente proportions, aud is a powerful agent in the dissomination of lufowledgo throughout the entire length and breadth of the land ; and tho book-agent who is engaged in this work is entitled to respect and courtosy.

Both these ladics sssured me that “the girls who studied tho hardest at Vas- sar were the healthiest.” They traced tho baa bealth of American women to its true sonrco— the terriblo severity and exiremes of chimate, combined with theunwholesome babit of heating hounes by furnacos, to tho exclusion of any proper veniilation, and tho Wide-spread dis- inclination to physical exorcise of any descrip- tion. 1 venture to add that the delicacy complained of ia algo due to the fearful rapidity with which our American cousina spply the rule of doing ‘emartly’ whatever they have 1n hand to their meals, and to the intemporate nso of iced water throughout the winter and summer, 1 hope the exccllent reply which Dr. Clarke bas drawn from his countrywomen will be widely read by thoue interested in this important sub- Ject. Tt bears the same relation to his extrava- gant attack that Mre. Garret-Anderson's digni- fied and practical answer does to Dr. Maudsley's somewhat one-sided sssertion.

Rocent explorations show that the great Aus- tralian troes exceed in Leight, though not in cir- cumfesence, the giants of Californis, though some of the Australans must be regarded as very respectable in girth as well as hoight, the bollow trunk of one of them being farge encugh to admit three horsemen to enter and turn vrin ont dismounting, while they lea s fourth horec. A fallen tree in the reccsses of Dandenoug, Vic- tona, was mensured not long sinco, and found to be 420 feet long ; avother an tho Black Spur, ten miles from Healesville, measured 430 fees. The highest trees on tho Bicrra Nevada, California, vet discovered, reach only 450 feet, tha average size being from 800 to 400 foot in _height, and from 25to 34 feot in diameter. The wood of these trees closely resembles red codar, and the reddish brown bark is sometimes 18 inches thick, and the ago of some of the cldest has been com- puted at 2,000 years. . ——— A New Ship Canal. From the Galvestan (Tez.) News, May 17., Yesterday the great ship canal from Corpus Chuisti Bay to Arkansas Pass, nearly seven miles long, and which has been under construc- tion for sovonteen years, was examined and ac- cepted by Special State Engincer W. H. Russell, of Brownaville. Its total cost will amount to nearly §1,000,000. Its avorago depth is about 10 and width 175 feet. The poople ars jubilant and happy, and oxpect stosmahips to enier their bay within'a month. EXCURSION. FIRST GRAND PLEASURE EXCURSION TO LAKE SUPERIOR.
