Boston and Glasgow Oompared.

Within a year or two bas been pub- lished a study of the administration of Glasgow, says Hon. Francis C. owell in The Atlantic, written in .awpirit of respectable pride by twe of its-efficials. On comparison of the statements of tris book with the condition:dé affairs in Boston it appears pretty clearly that im the matter of police, water and fire department the service of ane city is about as good asthat of the other. Glasgow excels in the la g ont and care of its streets aad in its public baths, Boston in its sewers, parks, schools and in the care of its poor.

by private generosity. Glasgow oper- ates a gas plant with snocess and has purchased and impreved a considerable tract of land. Bostea has constructed

id leased the subway on advantageous terms. The experiment of Glasgow in operating a tramway has een carried on for so short 2 time, upon so small a scale and with such dowtful results that no valuable conclusion-can yet Le drawn from it. On the whole and re- gardless of cost, the public service of Boston is rather more extensive than that rendered by Glasgow, and in quali- ty would seem to be quite as good.

The Oldest Photographer.

The Boston Transcript saye: ‘‘Josiab Johnson Hawes, the oldest working photographer in this country and prob- ably in the world, has just celebrated his ninetieth birthday. He has occupied the same studio, at 19 Tremont row, since 1843, when he started in busimess with Mr. Southwick, who died a few years ago. Mr. Hawes is still vigoroug anid at- tends to all the details of trade. He was the first to make daguerreotype in this city, and all the famous men and wom- en of a generation ago, including Danie] Webster, Rufus Choate, Jenny Lind, Baron Rothschild, Edward Everett, Charlotte Cushman, Longfellow, Whit- tier, Parker, Emerson, Alcott, Lucy Larcom and Grace Greenwood posed fos bim in this same studio.”’
