by two cadet engineers from tho Annapolis Naval Academy lUcrrunD GATKWOOD of Virginia graduated No 1 In the class of 1879 E T BOWLES of Massachusetts graduated No8 Thoso young mon wore commissioned to han die engines and have tho care of steam boil ¬ ers In tho war ships of the Unit States Navy It Is true that their nesswas at onco fictitious ludicrous and ghastly Neither of thorn with his commission In his hand aa do co of qualification could have ob employment as an engineer on any elevated railroad In this city Neither of thorn could havo run and kept in order the little stationary engine at any laundry candy factory or hotel Yet they woro com- missioned ¬ to handlo the mechanical power- on which dopend tho efficiency our steam The duty of these graduates toward tho tax producers who hnd educated fed and clothed them for public use reQuire thorn- to go Immediately to work or I ther was nothing for them to do or If they did not know how to do It to appear visibly as I waiting orders On tho other hand tho duty of tho Navy Department was to put them t work But tho obligation in the one case was evaded and the duty violated in the othor in a way characteristic of tho hum- bug institution at Annapolis- Tho English have a lloyal Naval College I is authorize t receive and educt two student ech foreign naton ob- Ject of generous privilege obviously Is t dlffuso among the nations of tho world knowledge of the principles and practice of seamanship naval architecture and steam engineering Certainly tho privilege was never Intended for men who already hold diplomas for proficiency In each and all of those branches of maritime learning Yet QATEtVooD and BOWLES graduates of a precisely similar Institution conceived tho surprising project of getting themselves admitted as pupils into this Royal Naval College at Greenwich Tho Secretary of our navy actually forwarded tholr application and our Minister at the Court ot tit Jamess presented it < v Now either the course of study and the corps of instructors at tho Annapolis Acad- emy ¬ are inadequate t teach seamanship naval architecture steam engineering or the two graduates and tho Secretary of tho Navy together have dishonored our na ¬ tonal school If these graduates were not wol instructed In their profession none of graduates of their class wore welt In- structed ¬ For they hold commissions which are the certificates of qualification If tholr commissions are untruthful credit cannot be given t the other commissions I these graduates were not qualified for work- as engineers but required a new educa ¬ tion the Annapolis scnool is a wortHless and costly humbug which should bo abol- ished ¬ I they were nt to take charge of marine engines tho permission given them- to enter the Royal Naval College Is a law- less furlough It Is a fraud on our public service These men are ofllcors In our navy They have no business to be in England reciting lessons from text books drawing on blackboards and wearing a British uniform Thoy should be at home and at work or they should resign Tho plnlu duty ot CugrclB ul its next ses- sion ¬ Is to strike names of thesa tin patriotic graduates from the navy list and io sharply rebuke tho Secretary of the Navy for his share In this discreditable transac ¬ ton Its next duty Is t abolish the Naval Academy We have repeatedly demon- strated ¬ that good sailors and good steam engineers cannot be made there that sea- men ¬ can only be made on shipboard and at sea that engineers can be mado only In machine shops and on or about working en- gines ¬ Tho

Living In Canada The business depression of the past six years has not spared the British American possessions and of course the price of labor has been unfavorably affected The depre- ciation ¬ however has been by no means so universal or so serious as in most other countries j and although employment is less easily procured the rates of wages are still relatively high when we consider tho low prices charged for the necessaries ot life This Is the general Inference to be drawn from tho statements ot our Consuls sttone In Canadian cities as will appear a brief survey of their report The statistics were collected at Montreal Hamilton and Goderlch and have been brought down t the end of last year It appears that in tho former city carpenters receive from 1140 to tlCO per diem house painters 1175 blacksmiths U cents per hour and laborers from 1 cents to 21 cents per hour In the adjoining country dletrlct mechanics in the several house trades are less adequately paid obtaining from 80 cents to 150 per day or about G per cent less than In 1874 As a rule through- out ¬ the consular circuit of Montreal agricul- tural ¬ labor is at present some 25 per cent lower than It was five years ago The wages now usually given t farm hands seem to be from 10 to la per month during the sum ¬ mer or from 10 to 12 per year the sti- pend ¬ in each case being supplemented with board Passing t the city of Hamilton we note that carpenters house painters black ¬ smiths coopers and shoemakers aro sever ¬ ally paid 116 por day Printers got 1167 plasterers 115 and bricklayers s 325 Day laborers In town receive butl and fAr- mhand 125 we now turn to the report from the consular district of Goderlch we find spocllio data furishe for a number of lako ports Southampton Stratford Coiling

t 10 per week What are know ordinary millers in the flour mills earn at Godorlch 8 to 11 13 per week and From 3 to 40 per month at Owen Sound and Stratford At ClnlWo millers seem t bo hired by yoar annual stipend ranging from 300 to 100 Thoro Is a like diversity In the method of paying farm laborers who In Stratford get 1 por day and find themselves while In Owen Sound thoy are paid from 10 t SI 12 per month In Colllngwood from 12 18 and In most other parts of tho Godorlch district 132 per annum board being furnished by tho employer In tho three last named Instances An interesting fact reported from GOo ¬ rich merits notice It appears proprietors of tho largest Hour and salt works In that town have found It for their Interest to give their workmen and all per- sons ¬ employed by them a share in the profits of the business besides their regular wages This share amounts at times t a considerable Rum one of their bookkeepers having rocehe In a recent year as his quota JO addition t lila regular stipend It Is said that the care exorcised under this system by all employees to pre vent waste of material or Injury t machin- ery ¬ has resulted In remarkable economies In general it may be said that tho cost of living In Canada Is from 25 to 9 por celt less Including tho several items of house rent food fuel and clothing than it was a tow years since The data on this head for ¬ warded from the Godorlch district of On- tario ¬ are especially full We learn for ex- ample ¬ that the best roasting pieces of boot are sold at retail In Godorlch for 10 cent per pound mutton at 7 cents lake trout at I cents while chickens are bu- tS cents per pair Milk costs I cent per quart eggs can b had for 10 cnts a dozen potatoes for 6 cnt a bushel and butter by t tho quantity 10 cents a pound Flour cost 1 a barrel and wood S210 per crd Throughout this district neat frame houses containing from four t seven rooms with an eighth or quar- ter ¬ of an acre of ground attached are rented for 1 to S7 a month These lots are found sufficient when carefully cultivated as in most cases they are t supply the tnant with vegetables during the year wo add that the region bordering on Lake Huron whore these prices obtain is exceptionally healthy we scorn to have summed up conditions unusually favorable- to the wellbeing of tho working population- Here however as in other parts of Canada Is encountered tho grave drawback that a much larger proportion of the mechanics- and laborers find difficulty In securing work than was formerly the case considerable numbers at present

explain several things- to him This is the question SIBI Will you please state In the columns or your val- uable paper why U 1 I UI A girl or 10 or thereabouts Is always called miss a young lady while a young man of IB or perhaps 201s dubbed boy and master I 13y x- plaining this j ou will oblige more than o- nEIGlnI Yxiu OLD I is true 83 our young friend save that a arrives at the period and receives the honors of young ladyhood at an ago when a boy Is still regarded as a strip- ling ¬ a hobbledehoy an undeveloped crea- ture ¬ a colt who has not yet been broken to harness Exactly when a boy becomes I man cannot be determined a a fixed rule applying t all cases Some of tho male sex aro slow to develop Their faces may be al- most ¬ as smooth as a babys oven when they have reached their majority or the down on their lips and their chins may unmistak- ably ¬ betray their youth But there are also boys who succe in raising a very thrifty moustache really luxuriant whiskers before thoy havo fairly got control of their voices Yet how unjust it would be t as ¬ sume that the whiskered are the men and tho smooth fnce the boys only Perhaps the may bo more mature In mind and character than the bearded and In truth neither are fully men and develop toy wont be for some tmo t cme But when a girl puts on long dresses and goes out in society she at once becomes a young lady and very likely boys of her ago seem to her raw creatures upon whom she cannot bo expected to lavish anything like serious attention Whereas just now thoy had assumed airs of superiority over her as only a girl from the suddenly attained height of young ladyhood she looks down- on thorn with serene patronage But such- Is the order of the universe and tho boys must watt a little longer before thoy can catch up with her Then they will find that she regards them with dllercnt eyes A boy at sixteen Is apt to be a who knows not what t do with his unbalanced proportions but a girl at sixteen may be a charming be- Ing of grace and symmetry Our young friend however should cher ¬ ish no jealous feelings because he finds his girl acquaintances addressed as Miss long before ho enjoys the satisfaction of being called Mr The girls are not only older in development than he at the sale ago but also gallantry and a natural regard for sex load people t pay 0 girl who has reach- ed ¬ budding womanhood a deference and a consideration ho must not expect to got at any ago It he lives ho Is bound to become- a man In duo time and his business is to set himself t work t see that ho shall be I man in other respects than outward and physical appearance moroly Ho can got along very well without tho conventional- title of Mr until people give It t him be causo they find by knowing that ho possesses the solid qualities of a manly character- The legal age of nunhood Is twentyone- years and that Is In fact an age at which many boyish things are generally put aside though folly and childishness often- times ¬ govern the conduct of men long after that period of life So far as having learnt anything from experience Is concerned they are still boys Just as Impatient just as re- bellious ¬ against reason and good tuneo and not a whit moro wise Their Intellects do not mature and their judgment remains un trustworthy and tho older they grow the greater fools some men become- It Is a great thing to bo a boy because a boy has so much time In which t learn and to grow and we remind our young friend that when he get old he can never bo young again while now he has a chance of getting old There no bettor ago than eighteen Most men of eighty would prefer It to tholr owu years and though crusty and Incon Idorat age may snub youth It cant run as fat or slop a soundly or eat with no relish 01

Wage and Living In CanadaThe business depression of the past six

years has not spared the British Americanpossessions and of course the price of laborhas been unfavorably affected The depre-ciation

¬

however has been by no means souniversal or so serious as in most othercountries j and although employment is lesseasily procured the rates of wages are stillrelatively high when we consider tho lowprices charged for the necessaries ot lifeThis Is the general Inference to be drawnfrom tho statements ot our Consuls sttoneIn Canadian cities as will appear abrief survey of their report

The statistics were collected atMontreal Hamilton and Goderlch andhave been brought down t the end of lastyear It appears that in tho former citycarpenters receive from 1140 to tlCO perdiem house painters 1175 blacksmiths Ucents per hour and laborers from 1cents to21 cents per hour In the adjoining countrydletrlct mechanics in the several housetrades are less adequately paid obtainingfrom 80 cents to 150 per day or about Gper cent less than In 1874 As a rule through-out

the consular circuit of Montreal agricul-tural

labor is at present some 25 per centlower than It was five years ago The wagesnow usually given tfarm hands seem to befrom 10 to la per month during the sum ¬
