The great trouble heretofore has been that the exorbitant prices demanded by mechanics to erect houses was entirely too great for the builders to grant, and, pled with the steadily increasing prices of real estate, investments in brick and mortar promised but a slow and unprofitable return. This, then, besides the influx of new residents | from day to day, accounts for the scarcity of suit- able dwellings for the masses. Carefully compiled statistics obtained by our re- | fore the blazing retorts. The speaker supported the porter priced houses, the most reliable real estate that the supply of medium- say between one thousand and from nts show twenty-five hundred dollars per annum, is not only imadequate to the demand, but has been almost completely exhausted since the 1st inst. RESIDENCES RANGING ABOVE THREE THOUSAND DOLLARS plenty, without any takers, and when the rent rises above this last-named figure the applicant turns away in disgust and cannot be induced to invest. High-priced houses can only now and then be let to those who make the keeping of boarders a re; gular business. Even then $250 a month rent 1s too great to warrant the undertaking; and yet there are plenty of landlords who woul low rather al- their houses to stand vacant for an entire year than reduce the rent afew per cent and thereby Secure a good tenant and certain payment. It IMPROVED PROPERTY A POOR INVESTMENT. is assumed by owners of improved property that a return of seven per cent on their invest- ments is by no means a fair compensation for out- | lay of capital, and neither itis. If, for instance, a house costing $40,000 lets for $2,800 per annum, al- thor ugh the calculation of seven per cent on the gross amount is strictly correct, yet the net income on this sum 1s no more than about four per cent, The balance above that amount is absorbed taxes, assessments, insurance, repairs, and if a bad tenant happens to occupy the premises, unable or unwilling to pay the rent, then the interest on the investment 1s reduced stil lower. However, as this article is not calculated to analyze the profits and losses of landlords on reai e, but only to demonstrate the existing status of rents, the statement just illustrated was merely given in the abstract, in order to give “the benefit doubt” to the much, and at most times justly, abused landiord. A CHAPTER ON “FLATS,"? in connection with rents of houses, is a natural Bequence in this instance. Tne readers of the HERALD, Who are residing in luxurious palaces, or occupy cosey Cottaves out of town, and who are un- acquainted with the term of “flats,” are here in- formed (in ments comprising all the eight and modern conveniences. eithesis) that they are apart- way from five to rooms on one floor, with all kents tor this modern lin- ted style of dwellings are as high, if not ten her, in proportion to what second class houses let for. selves with the idea that a residence in one of | Yet there are people who deceive them- these French one-story apartments they economize extensively, Whereas in reality they are muicted in twenty-tive to filty percent more than a good house would come to. ‘here are several extensive build- ings in this city which, within a year or two, have been altered into “French flats,” located on our fashionable streets. abo Towering six or seven stories ve terra firma, steam elevators have been in- troduced to bring the upper stories in closer con- nection with the ground floors and as an inducement for tenants to dwell therein. Yet, with all the temptations offered, most of these flats have been great faiiures from the fact that the owners have no idea where to stop in piling up the fabulous amounts requisite to occupy said apartments, appellation of fats has been abused. Furthermore, the very If any owner 1 a double-breasted tenement house capable of ek floors he fo: which forty families has one or two vacant rthwith advertises the same as “flats,” name, however, only indicates that of tie party renting the same. The medium class of these apartment houses, if let at reasonable rates, find ready occupants. are the FURNISHED RESIDENCES in the most abundant supply, without having slightest show of being let at present on any terms. The fact about this style of domicile is, that tt only persons of means will hire a iurnished house, aud such generally spend the Summer months at some watering or country place. If, therelore, any one should take upon himeelf the task of hiring a residence of this class, it would erly be eccupied about two months, while the three Summer months would witness its being closed ‘up. Houses of this kind only rent well about Se tember, and bring as much money for the seven months, from October 1 to May 1, as they would for the has ness having and tween the Battery and Chainbers street the Space of an entire year.

THE LABOR MOVEMENT. The Organization of the “Right-Honr En- forcement League.” Meeting of Workingmen Last Evening—Several Measures Proposed for Testing the Law—Eight Hours Demanded as a Day’s Work. ‘The workingmen of New York are now organiz- ing a united and desperate effort for the redressing ofthe wrongs from which they suffer and for the assertion of the supremacy of labor. The meeting last evening at the Germania Assembly Rooms was mot all that had been hoped for 1t by the friends of ‘the movement, yet it may serve as the basis upon which a most systematic campaign may be carried on. The men certainly arrived at A MORE PERFECT UNDERSTANDING of the prospects of defeat and victery, and will on the occasion of the next meeting, called for next Tuesday evening, be able to thoroughly organize. It was, indeed, encouraging to hear the unbiased and candid statements which were made by many of the speakers. ‘The old system, by which in- different workmen were enabled to live off the hara earnings of the industrious, was candidly referred to and deprecated. When the workmen of the country become their own thinkers and cease to be THE TOOLS OF POLITICAL TRICKSTERS the cause of labor will become much more re- spected and its advocates more influential, THE ORGANIZATION. The meeting was called to order by Osborne Ward and Mr. Maddox was chosen chairman. Mr. George Blair, the Secretary of the Federal Council of the International Society, was appointed. The call, published in the HERALD of Friday, was then read, A committee on credentials, consist- ing of Messrs. Keys, Banks and Garson, was ap- pointed, The CHATRMAN then stated that the object of the meeting was to perfect an organization which | should be powerful enough to demand and receive respect from every employer in the great cities of the land, In the State of New York the Attorney General was supposed to be the advocate of the people, and to him the workingmen should ap- peal jor the enforcement of the Eight-Hour statute, PUBLIC OPINION SIDING WITH LABOR, Mr. OsBoRNE Warp said that such a movement as was now possible could not have been instituted last year. plic opinion was daily becoming stronger in favor of the laboring classes. A strike had the effect of educating the people toa better knowledge of the lives of their fellow men. Very few in this city Knew the severity of the ga mens’ labor. Now, it was found by consulting statistics, that their average life was not more than thirty years. This appeared as convincing of | the severity ofthe work as a trial of tweive hours be- yy plan prSInpin vane: counsel and legally testing the question. He said that he knew one man who, if the trades were powertul enough to humiliate, could be attacked and beaten in every Court in the land, This man was the bitter antagonist of the iron and metal workers, and had already himself upon the very government. ‘ork was taken to his shops while the government machin- ery stood idle. labor could such a man only be humiliated, A NATIONAL COUNCIL WANTED. Mr. McGuirk, of the Pianomakers’ Union, said: The workingmen want a national conference, at which delegates can appear representing every branch of trade in the great cities of the Union. Revolution is what is wanted. With the men of Boston, Chicago and New York once united they could command eight hours in less than ten days. The effect of disunion has been seen in the strike of the gas men. If the gasmakers of the six establishments had sent two men to a central council, pledged to support each other to the uttermost, the monopolies would have trembled, and, with the desperate al- ternative o1 losing their charters or acceding to the wishes of the men, the companies would have surrendered and the strike would have ceased be- fore twenty-four hours. As it is the meu are alone. They have no assistance from their brother tradesmen, and will as surely fail witiout union as they would have succeeded with it. The speaker then — asaname forthe organization the “Eignt Hour Enforcement League.” This name was unanimously adopted, A GREAT MASS MEETING, Mr. BANKS said that he believed in arousing the people by calling a mass meeting, to be held in one of the large halls of the city, To-day a terribie state of things existed, The car drivers were forced to work from sixteen to nineteen hours (aa day, While the companies’ horses were only worked four hours. The speaker then suggested that measures be at once taken for bringing one or more of the street railroad corporations to a recognition of the Eight Hour statute. This system of calling upon or petitioning the Mayor or Aldermen should be at once discountenanced, The workmen of New York | are 100,000 strong. They have a voice 1 they would ly They are deceived, as a body, at More can be gained by opposing | than by begging favors from politicians, A COMMON SENSE VIEW. Mr. CARSON said he was not in sympathy with | the small and individual organizations known as | trades unions, but believed in a union of all trades | In one common body for the defence of a common cause. ‘The trades unions having for their purpose the cause of one particular branch of industry and that only were caiculated to make the members narrow-minded. There were last Winter mo: than fifty thousand men on the streets out of em- ployment, Very muchof this, the speaker re- gretted to say, Was attributable to the unions, which by their narrow ideas forbade the emplov- ment Ol any more than an established number of men. THE UNIONS DEFENDED. A member of the Order of Amalgamated En- gineers deiended the trades unions, asserting that in the “Old Country” they did as they pleased with capital, There, he asserted, the workmen knew how to bring monopolies to their senses, The yee may be blown up or burned down, but have their way the men would. London trembled when the trades threatened to use their power. Several other speakers addressed the meeting. A permanent organization having been arrived at, the Committee on Credentials was instructed to receive all such as were offered and to report the representation at the next meeting. The presiding officer then adjourned the meeting to next Tuesday evening, at the same place. SHIPPING NEWS. SUN AND MOON, HIGH WATER, 6 Sun rises, 10 | Gov.

GQORENCK’S MANDRAKE PILLS ASA BLOUD- Purifier and Preventative of Disease.—The season has now arrived when tho use of “blood purifiers” and tonics is necessary in order to invigorate and regulate the system, 80 as to enable it to repel those morbid influ- ences to which it is more or less subjected at this period, when intermittents, remittents, rheumatism, pulmonary disorders, and especially billous complaints—a — fore- Tenner of many incurable maladies—are so common. Every precaution should therefore be adopted to prepare and ‘protect the system in advance before the warm weather fully sets in and tends to develop the many discases prevalent with the changes of the season. But the question arises, in view of the many nostrums palmed on the public, as to the best’ remedy that will destroy any germ ot dis: ease that may be lurking in the system. ° Fortunately, we have one specific suited alike for all persons an climates, which will render the system impregnable against the attacks of the many complaints attending our Spring and Summer months, ENCK'S MANDRAKE PILLS, a honsehold word in every nook and corner of the land, is this valuable remedy. We do not mean to affirm but that some of the blood purifiers in the shape of sarsaparillas, tonics, &c., possess merit, but we do contend theit action ‘is so’ tardy as to require their long continued use, which not only necessitates great moon venience and expense, but still leaves the system, while undergoing this slow process of renovation, unprotected and liable to attack from the prevailing epidemics of the Ason. ASHENCK’S MANDRAKE PILLS, on the other hand, act immediately, although ently, any disease, if pen being at once scattered. These ‘pills act with the cv tainty of calomel or blue mass, without any of the m- jurious or enervating Influences of these drugs. They not only act upon the secretions of the liver, t igo she the human body, but from their alte pi rile they immediately restore to a health tion all secretions of the stom: prepare the and to pI anguor, . fe ague, and all other disorders with which. the atmos hs d at this period, the use of SCHENCK’ DRAKE PILLS, continued from two to five day is all that is necessary except in rare cases. For what other remedy can this be claimed and substantiated by testimony such asis given daily by handreds in ali parts ofthe country? The various sarsaparilias and other reparations sold for sete perpen, ae not only expensivey i as high as one and two doll per bottle or pack+ but have to be used for weeks, and even then with imperfect and unsatisfact Tesults, On the other rT le box of SCHENCK’S MANDRAKE ILLS, contin} drugs r here N.
