SERVANTGALISM.
TO THE EDITOR. Sir,—What are we to do for female d<s mestics? All the good girls are getting married, the bad ones we do not want, ana we are not importing any, while the growing population despise domestic service, and prefer to have their time their own if they get half the pay. The few that are unemployed (if there are any) are those none care to have in their houses. 1 have done all the work over the holidays, because my lady gave me notice two days before Christmas Day that she was going into the country for ten days, and she went, without any further notice. I learn dozens of others have been treated in the same way, wh_.t am I to do? I have advertised in vain.—l am, &c., Mater.
