The consumption of this whole sowa article of found is not confined to the drink cre of "Ite.tes;" but includes even such na in dadge in the must costly and genuine qualities aupposing them to win the beverage with milk, or cream. It is to this most innocuons of drinks that we are indebted for the addition to out cherished evening draught an ingredious proverbial for its indigestibility.

Mr. George Potter, though he writes moder- ately enough on the question of the engineers' atrike, cannot quite abstain from importing into it an argument which is without any roul waight. He harps upon the additional hour of rest" which would be secured for the man bat, whatever might bo the possible ntility of the bour thus saved from labour, it is dunbtint whether the men have ever been inflrienced in The smalleat degree by the prospect of such a gain. In fact, they would not take it in that coin if they could help doing so. The employ- ment of a greater number of workmen apon a given amount of work is the real bjcct of the movement, and the arbitrary curtailment of the "working day" offers the rendiest means to the end. Apart from this particular point- though, indeed, it is the cardinal point of the whole strugglercircumstance should be noted of material woight in favour of the men.
