TO THE EDITOR.

"Wliy not give to the skilful and intelligent married unemployed a chance to better their condition, instead of placing over them inferior men who are without question good pick-and-shovcl men, but arc sadly wanting in management, or ordinary engineering skill ? An Oi,i> Minkk. Patca, Get. ‘2ibid.
