For the Eagle.) Lines on the Death of My Husband. shall be mitigated to as great an extent as possible, not only to himself, but also to those who are dependent upon him for their comfort and subsistence. In the case of the unmarriod man the duty may seem less binding than in the case of the married; though even the single man is bound to live w'nhin his income, and to make provision in good times tor possiblo sickness, loss of work, and old age. There can scarcely be a sadder sight than that of a man who has worked hard and earned good wages, hut spent everything as he earned it, reduced in his declining years to become a burden upon his relatives, or relying for his subsistence upon the taxes levied from the frugal. But where a man has married, and taken upon himself the responsibilities of a family, he is not only bound in duty to do his to support his wife and children during his life, and to husband his surplus earnings as a defence against their future want, but to provide, ao far as lies in his power, against their being left destitute in the event of his death.

He cannot neglect this duty without misery to them and debasement to himself. Tho man who is always hovering on the verge of pauperism is in a state not far removed from that of slavery. He is in no sense his own master, but is in constant peril of falling under the bondage of others, and accepting the terms which they dictate to him. He cannot help being, in a measure, servile, for he dares not look the world boldly in the face; and in adverse times he must look either to alms or poor's rates. If work fails him altogether, he has not the means of moving to another field of employment; he is fixed to his parish like a limpet to its rock, and can neither migrate nor emigrate.

Some employers fear that if their hands were generally to save money, they would become too independent, and be in a position to carry on strikes with greater effect than at present. But the thoughtful and prudent workmen who have saved money, are those above all others who avoid strikes. They fear the loss of what have so carefully accumulated. "To secure independence, the practice of simple economy is all that is necessary. Economy re.

quires neither superior courage nor eminent virtue; it is satisfied with ordinary energy, and the capacity ot average minds. Economy, at bottom, is but the spirit of order applied in the adminia, tration of domestic affairs it means management, regularity, prudence, and the avoidance of waste. The spirit of economy was expressed by our Divine if aster in these words, 'Gatherup the fragments that remain, so that nothing maybe lost! His omnipotence did not disdain the small things of life; and even while revealing His infinite power to the multitude, He taught the pregnant lesson of carefulness of which all stand so much in need. Economy also means the power of resis. ting present gratification for the purpose of seear.

ing a future good; and in this light it representg the ascendency of reason over the animal instincts. It is altogether different from penuriousness; for it is economy that can always best afford to be generous. It does not make money an idol, but regards it as a useful agent. As Dean Swift observes, 'we must carry money in the head, not in the Economy may be styled the daugh ter of Prudence, the sister of Temperance, and the mother of Liberty. It is eminently conservative of character, of domestic happiness, and social well being.

Tt allays irritation, and produces content. It makes men lovers of public order and security. It deprives the agitatior of hia stock in trade by removing suffering, and renders his appeals to classhatred comparatively innocuous. When workmen by their industry and frugality have secured their own independenca I. VAN ANDEN, PUBLISHER AND PROPRIETOR, Eiam BmxDnros.

An article in the current number of the London Quarterly Jievieu; gives some interesting statistics of the earnings and savings of the mechanic and working classes of England.

The figures are at once encouraging and discouraging. While they show that all kinds of labor has within twenty years increased in value on an average ahout twenty per cent, it shows also that habits of imprudence and recklessness have grown up with their prosperity. Going further baelc than the time mentioned, Macaulay has shown that towards the close of the seventeenth century all classes were paid less wages than they are now. Agricultural laborers received only from 50 cents to 75 cents (our currency) a week with food, or from one dollar to one dollar and twenty five cents without. In 1001 the justices at Chelms.

ford fixed the rate at one dollar and fifty cents in winter, and one dollar and seventy five cents in summer; but at the time this order was made all iivt caui iun of life were iiuiupu.epitcJ).YLjleurw aud wheat was selling at what would now be considered almost a famine price 70s. (British) a quarter. Private soldiers were paid only one di Uar and sixteen cents a week, yet no difficulty was experienced in obtaining thousands of recruits on very short notice. Even mechanics received only from one dollar and fifty cents to one dollar and seventy five cents a week, notwithstanding the high price of food. In 10S0 Mr.

John Basset, member for Barnstable, urged In Parliament that the exorbitant wages paid in England niado it impossible for our artizans to compete with Indian looms; for, said he, the English mechanic, instead of slaving like the Hindoo for a piece oi copper, exacts not less than twenty four cents a day Working people then rarely tasted meat; and sugar, tea and coffee now the common necessaries of life were luxuries altocether beyond their reach. Iu Charles II. 's time, the woollen weavers could only earn twelve cents a day, and the popular ballads sung in tho streets of Norwich and Leeds stated that, if justice were done, and weavers had their they would be paid two shillings a day as in the 'good old But even during the days of the Commonwealth, which were the 'good old times' referred to a period of great prosperity being still proverbially spoken of in some parts of Yorkshire as 'Oliver's days' it is ascertained that, while the prices of the ordinary necessaries of life were someirhat higher, the better classes of workmen did not earn more than about one fourth of their present axeragc wages. At the present day mechanics in various departments of skillful labor, receive what would be considered then an income for a gentlennn. Rollers in "puddling mills" receive from $12 to $10 to per week, ir plate mills from $3T per week and in rail mills even from to $35 per week.

From this it appears that rail rollers are able to earn a rate of daily pay equal to that of lieutenants colonels in Her Majesty's Foot guards; shinglers equal to that of majors of Foot; and furnace men equal to that of lieutenants and adjutants. While this iucreasehas been going on the hours of labor have decreased fifteen per and yet the melancholy fact is confessed by the Reviewer, that the great mass of the working people have neither morally uor socially made the advancement that should be expected of them. Much of the improvidence of the manufactur. iug classes of England is due to the precarious nature of their employment. Good years and bad years follow periodically on one another.

The artisan alternates between absolute want and improvident possession. When times are "flush" he compensates himself for the suffering he experiences in dull times. It is a singular fact that the Savings Banks, those great encouragers of econo. my, arc used infinitely more by that class whose earnings are small but steady, than by those whose employment is occasionally interrupted. It is a singular fact that soldiers, whose pay varies from 25 to 30 cents per day, use infinitely more economy and save more money than those highly paid laborers who can so much better afford to do so.

When trade is interrupted, as it is periodical the manufacturiug classes of the manufacturing districts of England are plunged at once into distress, and are obliged to call for relief from those less improvident than themselves. In the panic which occurred in 1857, the pressure was hardly felt before want was experienced among classes of working people who might and should huve provided for such contiogencies. Economy is not a showy virtue, but it is a greas one, and the man who practices shows himself to be possessed of qualities of self respect, self denial the best conservatives of everything that it is desirable to encourage. "When a working man casts his glance for. wara he will find that the three chief temporal contingencies for which he has to provide are want of employment, sickness and death.

The two first he may escape, but the last is inevitable It is, however, the duty of the prudent man so to live, and so to arrange, that the pressure of suffering, in event of either contingency occurring, they will cease to regard tue sight ot others' well heing in the light of a wrong inflicted on them, selves and it will no longer be possible to make political capital out of their imaginary woes."
