We lienr pleasantly of Senater dm eren, he long lest te us, through a pub llslied letter te lits father. He Is traveling hi a phivten through Lnglund en his way te Scotland te visit his friend, Le.il Klncnird. He has no com pany but till wife, and Is enjoying lilm Belf Rre.it ly. He lisia net seen an American newspaper for two weeks, and has forgotten all about politics. Tl e beautiful scenery of tlie country I e traverses charms him, and the beautiful buildings and ruins and things enchant him. He get Inte a hop country ; which causes him te think that hop raising; would be profitable here ; and Inte a sheep county ; which leads him te say that he believes sheep raising would pay here, If geed shepherds could be get , and he is going te get Lord Kinc.iir.l te recommend him a shepherd for his farm, at Ilummelstewn, and he intends te in in qulre into that hop businrss. Senater Cameren proposes very proper Inquiries for his leisure hours. It is a pity that politics occupied se much of the bona ter's leisure tlme at home that he did net have a eh uiee te learn mero than he teems te knew of his home iiidustiies. The hop Indus try is a very flourishing ene in portions of our country and a section of our neighboring state of New Yerk is do de voted te it. It lias been an exceedingly profitable business lately, and doubtless hop growing would be very much mere extensive than it Is. but fei the viclssl tudes that attend It. Sometimes the prlce is very high and sometimes very low, being mero variable than any ether crop. Sometimes Iicentt.ick the vines and ruin the whele crop. The uncer tiintyef the product and of the price inake hop grew ing a risky business and check the euthusi.ism te go into it which big profits often tend te excite, senator Cameren, when he comes home, can probably lltitl out a great deal mere about the hop culture than he can pick up abroad; but, nevertheless, his in quiry is praiseworthy. There is nothing like traveling with an inquiring mind and an alert eye. If Senater Cameren continues his tour for a considerable season he will he much better titled te be a sen.iter.it its end than he was at Us beginning. It would be profitable te us te exleud his leave of absence through the uet session of Congress, if he would undertake te tiavel in the geed cempuiy of his wife alone during his absence. It would de him great geed phjslcally and mentally. Senater Cameren is a clever gentleman with a geed undeistaudiiig. Ills education In useful information has been neglected and he does net knew as much about hops and sheep as he should. When he brings that Scotch shepherd te Ilummelstewn and provide.) l.im with a Heck of sheep, he will find that he muse next furnish him with an iu,t of the Legislature forbidding dugs te go at large, before his sheep can wax fat for the butcher. If the senator had known much about farming, his enthusi asm for hops and sheep culture would be lees than It is. Ilia example leads te the conclusion that his civil s-ervice re form steps where It eiuht te commence in leaving our legislators e .t of the list oteniclals te be examined. A geed course of questions en political economy and the industries of the eeuiitiy would be excellent as an en terlng exercise te our legislative hills In lieu of it a foreign tour seems te be an excellent thing ; an 1 we suggest, by the way, te our Democratic represent.! tlvesat Harrishurg that they propose te the llepubliean henatets that tlie Legis laiure au.iii uiiie a recess, Willi lull piy, and that the state shall charter pli.etens for the crowd, with which they maj traverae tlie hills and alleys of the state in search of inleimatiuii en the subject of apportionment. We .ire quite Buretliat when they reissemble th .q portiennients will be speed 1 1) made. Hut te return te our senatei , we are truly glad that he is enjoying himself. The picture of his happy tour m the amiable company of his wife is an interesting one. That the senator is able te enjoy himself se much in tins simple way shows that theie is a great deal of geed in him. That he Is happy thus in for getting nil about p ditirs .should demon atrate te him that pihtics are net his trade. He does lastly Iwttei as a bus band. His wife, as in duty b Hind, in ikt s herself agreeable te him, which the con feunded politicians won't de unless lie Is all the tlme cramming them with fat elllces. They are net an amiable net of men, and the company of a geed woman la far preferable. Se the senator learns. t'eacn en Laber. Mr. Jehn Honeli has been telling the Senate committee en iducatlen and labor what he thinks of these subjects He tells them that from beluga tramp en a western prairie he has leached a pay roll of his workmen amounting te eei u million ami a half or dollars a year. And he him net hud a holiday for lerty jears. Frem which he draws thededue" tleu that an iiidiihtrletis weikumu who does net indulge In holidays cm always manage te own tils heuse. Though Mr. Iteach himself has never owned the heuse he lived In ; which seems te be an intimation of his opinion that the lu dustrleiis workmen can de better with his meney than te buy a house. Still Mr. Reach is in favor of building assecl atleiiB and bays that Chester has mauy. Trem which we infer again that Mr. Iteach thinks that the Industrious work, man who prefers te boa workmen should invest his money in a heuse j but if he wautBtebea niamifaeturer, employing ether workmen, he should Invest It in something else. Mr. Iteach has no objection te trades unions ; but he objects te these unions act Ing as a bedy.when his workmeu have any complaints. Llke in inufacturers goner ally he pretests that he will net be die tated te in mauaglng his business. Jut Mr. Itoaeh thinks that he Is a fair man, and that Individual representatives te him by his workmen will always result charmingly for them. He declares that Ijo has spent its much ns half a day in communing with elicnr. Once he had n strike; and he settled If. by dividing Ids workmen into three classes. The first was composed of the skilled men who were saving or their materials; he In creased the wages of these. The next clas comprised these less skilled and net saving; the wages of these he did net Incte.tse. Thethlrd let consisted of his drunken and unsteady workmen ; and these he discharged. Mr. Iteach acted wisely, but he would have been still wiser ir he had had no drunken or tin steady workmen te discharge. The most surprising statement made by Mr. Hoach was that iron ships can be built here cheaper than In Lngl.ind. The cost of officering our snips, however, is much greater than that of efileerine Kngllsh ships. Mr Ueach has achieved a high reputation as the champion sub sidy beggar or the country. It is gran ting te knew that the ship building Interest here is ntloistse limit Ishmg that It needs no sul sidy. The laek of shin captains is one that the eeuiitiy can easily supply from its superabundant navy list, which is se lull that all but ten of the naal cadets, graduited at Annapolis, aie discharged from the sti vice Here is abundant material te man the merchant marine and te bung down the cost of captains. M r. Ueach thinks that Congress should leek into the American shipping inter est, but according te his steiy it seems tJ be p'ttlng along ery well without Icing looked into A lib j en registered .' -ml) linn iciii lining.

Ne ene hereafter will doubt the t Ilia icy of prayer. When Jay Gould wis a etiug tuau. bis ruven.es se middled Inui th it, no oerilitig te his evn htilemeut, "he went upstursaud prayel."
