ed labor Of all the girls of The Commonwealth
could not have produced! So much ha.
been said of the inequality Of the COmprnsa
ton allowed TO frmairs employed 10 factories
In proportion to the labor performed, that We
cannot but believe that many of our readers
will be agreeably disappointed by this item in
the table. II is there stated land all the.state-
nnepfs are from an authentic sOnrce) that the
average wages of the females are MTee dollars
and tsDenty :fre cents a week, ar tvsO dollars
clear of buard. Without stopping to inquire
whether these wages are f,ir compensatinn
for their labor, it is enough for the present
purpose 10 know. that they cannU. command

~ Of finding constaot employment in either

tie day Of The Kings fete, when an Amrricap
frigate 10 that port fred seven times upon
French vessel GATED LIE Suffren. and killed

that this misfortune must have been the result
of mistake or accident. As proof of this.
