Nowhere elise are wages more generous in proportion to th tof living. One of ' various reasous why this should be so has been but little considered. In Germany nore than 5,500,000 female artisans and ul nics are employed ; in Kogland there sre over 4,0)0,000 ; in Austria and Italy here are 3,500,090, anl_in France more than 2,000,000. More than half of these are engaged in branches ot labor for whick they are unfitted, such as blacksmiths, inachinists, boot-make rs, wo d carvers and farm hands During the few months or years in which tl ‘y are able to perform their tasks they are as valuable to their em- ployers as men, aad work for half the pay which male labor is entitled, and the con- sequence is (hat laborers of both sexes are barely able out of their earnings to sup- port life \ similar condition of affsirs prevails in many parts of the United States, nd this is why we hear so much of the destitution which prevails to such an ex- tent among the laboriny classes of the large cities of that country. Lo the labor markets of Canada there isno competition between ? ] uu there ever be, it will ir distant future. In our factories kshops, except in extremely rare the labor of the female operatives, it may be monotonous, is by nu means disproportioned to their strength, and in shops and retail stores it is certain- ly be with the fitness of things, in many instances, that they should scupy places behind the counter than men.

OPENING OF PARLIAMENT— PEACE OF EUROPE THE NEWFOUNDLAND FISHERIES — POLICY OF THE GOV ERNMENT IN RESPECT ro IRELAND. The following is the text of the Queen's speech at the opening of parliament on Tuesday last : My Lords and Gentlemen : No change has taken place in our foreign relations during the short period which has elapsed since the close of the preceding session. Securities of European peace appear to be undiminished, I have commenced negotia- tions with the King of Italy to determine the boundary which separates the territory under British influence in the north-east of Africa from that belonging to the pro- tected empire of Abyssinia. A treaty was signed on the 20th August having tor its object the ascertainment of the b sundaries between British territory in Central Africa ind Portuguese provinces of Angola, Gaza ind Mozambique. It has, however, not re- ceived the ratification of the King of Por- tuzal. Pending further negotiations tem- porary arrangements have been made in re- ward to the most urgent questions conclud- ed between the two countries, which will be laid before you. Negotiations have been commenced in to the New- foundland fisheries questions. I[ trust a settlement may be arrived at which will be } A ei respect satisfacto ry <0 all parties. Gentlemen of the House of Commons ; he ensuing year will be presented to at the ordinary time. Strict economy will be observed in prepar- ing them. My Lorps ano GENTLEMEN: The gen ral condition of Ireland has sensibly improved under the salutary legislation which you have applied it, but I have learned with deep regret that a serious defieiency of the potato ere p in certain parts threatens a recurrence ¢ f those periods of severe distress to which the population of the western counties Is peculiar- ly exposed by the industiial and economic conditions under which they live. trust the measures of my government may mitigate the immediate evil and diminish the probabil- return. It appears to me desirable the increase of contentment, and the dim- inution ef political disturbances throughout Ireland, to inake measures for augmen ing the number ef owners ergaged in the actual calti- vation of land, A measure having this object in view will be laid before you. Proposals will agin be submitted to you for remedying difficulties which have arisen fiom the indir- ect incidence of title and rent charges, A measure will be submitted for facilitatiag the transac'ion for Scotland and Ireland of more important stages of private legislation aliect- ing those countries. Your attention will be invited to the expediency cf alleviating the burden which 1] law of compulsory education has within receat years imposed upon the poorer per.icn of my people. There aie several other matters upon which legisla- tion is desirable but recent experience has renderes loubtful whether the time at your disposal will, in your jadgment, be sufficient for the consideration of the many jects of an important character beyond those to which I have referred. In case time tor further legislation should be found, I have directed the preparation of bills for the enact ment of a retorm system of county governme: t in lreland, analogeus to that put into oper- ation fer Great Britain, for the establishment of district councils, for the extension of tacilities for purchasing small parcels of land in Great Britain, for amending the law in respect to compensation payabie by employers in case of injury to persousin their employ- ment, for consolidating and amending the laws relating to public trustees, and for in- creasing the security of friendly societies and savings vanks. {n the discharge of arducus duties as- signed to you I commend you to the guidance ot Almighty God. + L The estimates for you t to ¥ i its sis ity of for 12 + it subjec S the -_—_—_ ———— ee Reciprocity With the West Indies. Commenting upon the Hon. Mr. Foster's visit the West Indies, the Montreal Gazette says : to “As for reciprocity with the Weat Indies itself, there can be no question of its benefit to Canada. They lie in another latitude. Their productions are such as this country must al- ways import. ‘They import largely what this country, or some other, similarly situated as to climate, can alone supply. Already there is considerable trade between Canadian ports and those of the islands. They afford a mar- ket for a large proportion of the fish and some of the farm products of the Maritime Provinoc: s. We in turn consume much of their sugar and molass- es. Buatifa mutual reduction of daties wis agreed upon there is acertainty that this in- te:change would be increased, to the profit of both peoples. Canadain this matter stands in the same position as the United States. She bas found a moderate protective tariff to her advantage. She seeks to enlarge the field for her industrial products without incurring the danger of w competition that might jeopardize the contiaued success of ber manu- tacucures. Al that Mr. Blsine said in favor ot the reciprocity provisions of the McKin‘ey Bill applies with equa! force to Canad in this West India matter. Itis p ssibie for her to enlarge the maiket for her manufactures and farm prodacts, and at the sime time reduce the cost «f a number of staple articles to her own people. The present exports from the islands consist larg+ly of sugar and molasses. But they are capable of beimg largely added to. Tropical fruit is coming more and more jnto consumptien in the north, and a'ready many vessels tind em-] ployment iu carrying it from the place of production to New York and Boston. If regular communication were established as the result of improved trade relations much that now finds its way to this country through these cities would com: direct. ‘Tili the ia- dustry failed from iack of proper faciities for transport the bahamas were known as cotton growing islands Jamacia is now entering upon extensive experiments ia the cultivatioa of rice. The consumptim in Cenada of all these arfices amounts t> many millions a year. The market of the West Indies a'one for goods Canada produces takes from the United Sfates merchandise to the value of sixteen millions a year. In this total are in- cluded live animals, bread and biscuits, osts, wheat and flour, carriages, fish, hay, leather, boots and shoes, oil cake, beef, dairy prodw:ts, vegetables, lumber and furniture. In so far as the market for these can be secured by Canada, so much more work wiil there be for Canadian workmen and so much greater a demand for Candian produce.” Personal. Captain W. H_ Barnard is among the guests at the Hotel Davies. He wiil leave for Boston on Tucs lay morning. —_-«+ Don't forgot that Beer & Goff's is the cheap- est place in town to buy American Kerosene Oil at.
