CLERIC A V. WORK.
W# bare long maintained that the great
ninylty of the day is for sotual workers,
pro4ttoers, men capable to bear phyaioal
labor and taking a pxido in it. In this
belief we are confirmed by the daily in
terest manifoAtod by ruen of eduoation in
the mecbauioal callings, and the daily
'deefcease of clerical compensation owing
to the icaineuKO supply of elerieal labor.
The following facta gleaned from a
Northern paper prove this conolnsively ;
“A few mouths logo a New York firm
advertised that they desired the servieea
of e young ®au, who should be e good
penman and have some knowledge
book-keeping: compensation would be
fit the rate of eight dollars per week.
The advertisement appeared bat onoe,
end in only one newspaper, bat within
feer Jsoura of the publication of the
paper the advertiser received more th e
one bund rod replies by mail, and the
total number of replies was aboat five
hundred. Among the applicants wera
many collegium*, book-keepers and expe-
riensed dorks. The hoars of labor ia
the office of the firm in question were
nififi per day, with frequent night-work
wlthont extra compensation. At the same
time the bod carriers at work upon a large
bnilding in the neighborhood of the above
named firm succesafnlly struck for more
pay, being at the timo in reoeipt of pay
at {he rate of twelve dollars per week, the
working hours bring eight per day. A
few months later another clerk was wanted
by the same firm, and a similar advertise
ment brought similar results: at the same
time the longshoremen of New York struok
because of an attempt to redaoe their
wages to thirty oents per hour, with en
additional fifty per oent. for night-work.
Similar comparisons might he made with
out number, yet the fact remains that the-
labor market, in city and country alike,
is overstocked with men wishing to do
clerical work."
The cease of this surplus of olorloal la
bor ia not hard to find. Until a compar
atively short time ago, merchants were
almost the only capitalists in the land,
competition in trade was nothing com
pared with what it is now, and merchants
psid handsomely for clerical service,
while manual labor offered almost no
possibility of advancement, its hours of
labor were long, and its pay was poor,
It was, therefore, very natnrul that yonng
men should prefer trado to mechanics.
Now, howover, the conditiens are entire
ly chsnged. There is not, as there ones
was, a scarcity of men fit to do olerioal
work, so the competition for the services
of able clerks nud salesmen baa oeased,
end the prioe ot snob service has Inevita
bly gone down as the competition has
lessened and been removed. The profits
of trade in proportion to (he amount of
capital inveHtnd have greatly decreased,
and with them the rate of wages, aud the
pay of office work of all aorta, has de
creased sympathetically.
Under the circumstance*, it is olssrly
a hazardous operation for young meu to
look forward to clerical work na a life oo-
oupatiou. We say occupation, beoaune
oven in the most promising days not ono
clod: iu ten ever became a merchant. Nor
rtho professions offer encouragement
ting roon'Without means snffioient to
pay for a good education, and for their
own subaistenoa iu the years which mast
elapse bofore tboy receivo the public con
fldenoe iu a profitable degree.
On the other hand, the mechanic arts
never offered so great inducements to
yonng men of ability and onergy as they
do now. Fifty years ago carpeuters and
masons were mere builders of cheap
huuHOH of certain stereotyped shapes aud
plans; to-day every buildor with
any ability as a designer has
more work offered him than he can
possibly do. Fifty years ago every black
smith was a mere mechanic ; to day the
skilled worker in metal baa daily oo-
Ogvion to haudle machinery, and has,
oousequeutly, unequalled opportunities
for dovising improvements aud for reap
ing the fruit thereof. At the present
time thero is a steady neod and demand
for labor-saving apparatus of every sort,
and the iuvoutors thereof, if men of or
dinary buuucNB House, aro richly re
warded fur their ingeuuity. Manufactu
rers of fiuo mauhiuery of all kinds are ae
riously crippled by lack of intelligent
laborers; the practical details
the miuing interests of tho
country arc iu th# bands
men who have seldom enough intelli
gence^ properly fill thoir places; our
simplest houses are iudifferuutly built,
our farms are seldom worked to thoir full
e&paoity; able men iu all those depart
ments come speedily and prominently
into noiioe, and attain wealth aud social
position, aud yet young men ahuu ail
these departments of industry. It is a
noteworthy fact that at the same time
great numbers of rich meu are endeavor
ing to place thoir soas as apprentices
with competent machinists, miuing cor
porations, builders, aud meohanios in
general. Those same rich meu are the
most trustworthy iudtcators of the busi
ness siguH of tho times, and youug wen
in general will do well to consider the
meaning of thoir action.”
Oliver Cronmell'a llrsd.
A correspondent of tho Loudon Times
gives the following curious aocount of the
varying fortunes of tho head of Lord
Protector Cromwell: Sevoral imperfect
statements lmviug lately appeared on the
above subject, let mo explain what be
came of the remaius of Cromwell. Part
ly from printed records, and partly from
what I heard from Mr. Wilkinson, to
v.hom some of the press have alluded,
Oliver Cromwell died at Whitehall Pal
ace, on the 3d of September, 1058, after
a protracted illness, lie had been long
suffering from ague, aud his case is cited
in medical books as one of a man who
died of ague while our warehouses wero
groaning with Peruvian bark, which we
did not know how to use. During his ill
ness he became so depressed and debili
tated that be would allow no barber to
come near him; and his beard, instead of
being cut in a certain fashion, grew all
over hit* face. After his death the body
isjr ia state at Somerset' House, having
been carefully embalmed, and was after
wards buried with more than regal hon
ors iu Henry VIPs Chapel in Westminster
Abbey, where it lay until, after the Rea-
tocifiou, it was talion out of bis grsve, as
were also iho bodies of Ireton, (Crom
well's son-in-law) and Bradshaw; the Ut
ter, as President of the High Court of
Justice, having pronounced sentenoe of
death ou Charles I. The three bodies
were taken in oarta to the Red Lion, in
Jfolboru, and on the 80lh of January, the
lows, and thoir heads stuck upon the top
of Westminster Hall, where st that time
sentinels walked.
Iroton's bead was in tha middle, and
Cromwell's and Bradshaw's on either side.
Cromwell's head, being embalmed, re
mained exposed to the atmosphere for 2.»
years, and thou ono stormy sight it wan
blown down and picked up by the seutry.
who, biding it uuder his cloak, took it
homo and secreted it in the chimney oor-
ner, nnd, as inquiries were constantly be
ing mode about it by the Government, it
was only on his deathbed that be revealed
where he bad hidden it His family sold
the head to one of the CanibridgflRhiro
Kassels, and, in the same box iu which it
still is, it descended to a certain Samuel
Russell, who, being a needy and careless
man, exhibited it in a place near Clare
Market. There it won hoau by Jamo**
Cox, who then owned a famous museum.
He tried in vain to buy the head from
Russell; for, poor as ho was, nothing
would at first tempt him to part with the
relio, but after a time Cox anointed him
with money, and eventually,to clear him
self from debt, he made the bead over to
Cox. When Cox at last parted with his
museum ho sold.tho head of Crornwoll for
£230 to thruo men, who bought it about
the time of the French Revolution to ex
hibit in Moad Court, Bond street at half a
crown a head. Curiously enough, it hap
pened that each of theno geutieiueu died
a sudden death, aud the head carne into
tho p'MSOHhion of tho three unices of the
last inan who died. TIicfo yonng ladies,
nervous at keeping it iu tho Louse, asked
Mr. Wilkinson, their medical man, to
tsko esro of it for them, and they subse
quently sold it to him. For the next fif
teen or twenty years Mr. Wilkinson war,
in the habit of showiug it to all the dis
tinguished men of (hat day, and the head
tiich treasured, yet remains in his fu
Ijr-
Tho circumstantial evidence is very cu
rious. It is the only head in history
which is known to hnvo been embalmed
and afterwards buheudod. On the back
of tho neck, above the vertebno, is the
raaik of the cut of nil me whore the exe
cutioner, having, perhaps, no proper
block, had struck too high, »u*l, laying
the hand, in its soft cmludmed statu, on
the block, Hat toned the nose on one side,
making it adhere to the face. Tho hair
groAH prmiiiHOUonr.ly about (be face, and
the beard stained to exactly tho same
oolor by tho embalming liquor, is tucked
up under the chili, with the oakeu staff of
the Sj.esf with which the head was stuck
upon Westminster hall, which stuff is
per bunted by a worm that never attacks
oak uutil it has boon for many years ex
posed to the weather.
Tho irou spearhead, whom it protrudes
nbu7o the skull, is rusted away by tho ac
tion of tho atmosphere. The j igged way
in which the top of the skull is removed
throws us back to a time whoa surgery
has in its infanoy, while tho imhalmiug
is so bountifully duuo that the cellular
process of the gums nud the membrane of
the tongue lire still to be scon. Several
teeth ure yet in the mouth; tho moiabrane
of (ho eyelid remains; the pir-muttor and
dara-m.iter, thin membranes, which, 1
believe, lio over the bruin, may bo soon
dinging to thoir inner arid upper part of
the skull. The brain wu", of aourao, re
moved, but the couipurtmeiits are very
distinct. When tho great sculptor, Flax-
inau, went to nee it ho said at once, “You
will not tniud my expressing auy disap
pointment l may fool on seeing t he head?"
“Oh, no;” said Mr. Wilkinson, “but will
you tell mo what are the choractoristios
by which the head might bo roooguized ?"
“Well,” replied Flaxman, “I know a
great deal about tho configuration of the
nead of Oliver Cromwell. Ho had a low
brond forehead, largo orbits to the eyes, a
high septum to tho nose, and high cheek
bones; bnt there ia oue feature which
will be with me a ernc-i il t« st, And that is
that, instead of having the lower j*w-
bouo somewhat curved, it was particular
ly short and straight, but sot out at au
angle, which gave him a jowlisli appear
ance.” The head answered exactly to
the description, nnd PinXman went away
expressing himself us convinced aud de
lighted.
The head has ala > a length from the
forehead to tho bnck of the head which
is quite extraordinary, aud one day, lie-
foro Mr. Wilkinson rt>tired from practice,
his assistant called him into the surgery
to poiut out to him how exactly tho shav
en head of n lad who was thero as a pa
tient lOMombUul thu embalmed head of
Cromwell upstairs, aud more particularly
iu tbo extreme longtli botwecu tho fore
head and occiput.
Mr. Wilkinson mentioned tho circum
stance to the gmitleiuen who brought tho
lad to him. “No wonder," said the gen
tleman, “for this lud is a diroct descend*
nnt of Oliver Cromwell, whose name, like
this boy’s, was Williams before they
changed it to Cromwell.” It was curious
that this type should reappear or remain
after

to determine how fast he is going to de
