THE WAGES OF LABOR.

The Sub-Treasury scheme has been advo
Gated on the ground that it will tend 10 reduce
the price of products and the rates of wages
and thus enable the American manufacturer
"without any tariff to complete with the for
eign manufacturer, in the markets Of the world
Deny it as they may, or will, the burden oil
their arguments for the Sub-Treasury, and the
hard money currency which it was 10 bring
about, was drawn from its assumed operation
in reducing the prices Of products and the wages
of labor, to the STANDARD throughout the
world"
This WAS the language Of Mr.. Buchanan's
speech in the Senate, and it is undoubtedly the
meaning o! his speech as ''n,oulded," and after.
wards published in the Globe. To those who
may be led astray by his heightened disclaimers
subsequently,, and who may thus entertain q
doubt upon The subject, we will cite fact that
will 90 far TO remove their doubts, and settle
the question.
Some weeks ogo the Lancaster Herald, q Har-
rison paper, which has a great circulation in
that and the neghboring counties, proposed to
the lnlellIgencer, the Sub Treasury paper OF
Lancaster, that if the latter would publish Mr..
Davis's speech in reply TO Mr.. Buchanan, the
Herald would publish Mr.. Buchanan's speech
But the offer has Lot been accepted. The last
Herald says that "Mr. Buchanan won't let the
editor Of the Lancaster Inteligencer accept the
chalIenge"--appGrenty not being DESTROYS that
his speech, for the reduction Of prices and la
Dor, to the STANDARD Of The world" should be
circulated among the people.
What is the inference? Why, the speaker,
on sober second thought, has cause to entertain
a well grounded fear that his speech IN the
Senate, instead Of making converts to the Sub
Treasury sheme, among the bone and sinew Of
the country, will make opponets to an Admins.
tration, whose "avorite measure" is intended to
reduce prices and wages, and thus promote the
interests of the saared office holders, at the ex-
pense Of all other interests in the community.

THE JERSEY BoYs Recommendations
AND BETTER.-On Monday last, the Town
ship Elections were held in all the Middle,
Northern and Eastern counties of New
Jersey, and as far as the results have reach
ed us they are of the most cheering charac-
ter. The Wings appear to have carried
all before them. The Jersey boys have not
been satisfied by turning out by THOU
SANDS at the immensely large Convention
at Trenton on Wednesday last, which was
at least four or five times larger than any
political gathering ever held in the State;
but they have at their Town Elections this
week given more tangible and forciblo
expression of their deep and abiding indig-
nation at the gross and unjust manner in
which that gallant State has been treated
this winter by the Locos in power.

A DEALER IN BLANKS.

The Richmond Enquirer of Tuesday has
the following "cheering'' paragraph: "a
trend IN Washington writes us, M.

MIA. He assures me, that the good old Re-
publican "keystone" is as safe and sound as
ever. -----and our other friends are
in the best spirits about Ohio. -assure
me-, that sour friends in Massachusetts are
IN the best possible spirits; and if Old Vir-
gina gives good lead in April, they will be
certain to carry the Old Bay State"
This is what may be called anonymous
comfort. The sold veteran of the En-
qulrer, does well to try his hand at blanks.

(He stands for ONE TERM oNLY--a precedent
for which the people of this country have
been contending in Congress and out of

which obtained for General Jackson the
largest share of his popularity, and which
was electoneered by his partizans in voices
of thunder, as well as made the subject Of

PROSPECTUS
FOR THE THIRD VOLUME OF THE
IIlBRRTSY AlDWQGATIRa
JAMES NJ. SMILEY, Editor

Notwithstanding the unparalleled pressure
which Tor the last twelve months, has crampod
and trammclled every depart ment of the Me
chanlcal, Agricultural and Commercial com
munlty, the unwearied and interchangeable ener
gies OF American enterprise, are once more
giving eyidenceol higher and fairer prospect
before US. That quiescent attribute, which, for
la time, seemed to mark and designate our
downward proclivity to careessness and indif
ference, has fortunately awakened from It's
sluggish apathy; and partially dsinthralled
from tn e fatal. influence of too blind credu.
|lity in the infallibility of those whom we have
elevated above US, may we not still indulge the
hope, that there is yet held in reserve, hap
Ply result in the experiment ofhis last and
once purest Of Republics?
lnstigated, in part, by that grand revolution
which has already commenced and which IS
still going on in the opinion Of the people, SO
Tar as respects the political relations existing
between the respective States and the FEEDER.
lal Government, the present Proprietor is about
to embark in the publication Of the Liberty
Advocate.
Two years ago, this Journal dated its origin.
at period when, in this County, It had many
dlihcultles to encounter, and the strongest Oh
position to contend with. The enduring. and.
as we conceive, orthodox principles, which
have nurtured and sustained the journal through
good and through evil report" had then In
their infancy, but mere minority which sus
tanned 1t. But, the resistless march of human
reason, before whose advance all obstacles
must ultimately recede, has brought about
brighter and a fairer dawn; and the philan.
thropist and the patriot can now look in pro-
sPective upon the revisit Of those purer DAVIS.
which once pointedto the destiny Of our much
beloved country.
The political creed Of the Advocate viii he
the same which it has heretofore advocated,
State Rights and State Sovereignty, will be the
arterlal action which shall give life and anin4
alton to It's political character.--B while ex-
ercslng tenacity for those principles which
will never yieldto caprice, the columns of this
journal VIII, at all times, be open to LIBERAL
discussion, and offered as ready channel to the
tide OF passing events, and an acceptable organ
OF general science and useful knowledge.
we cordially invite the patronage OF all those
who concur with US in sentiment, as well as the.
magnanimty Of those who dissent from us IN
politics, to cooperate in sustaining the press,

PROSPECTUS
THE WEEKLY PICAYUNE.

ii II Il EkL Y Plea UNE
In consequence of the popularity which our
daily paper has gained in all sections Of the
country, and the numerous demands we arc
receiving from all quarters for weekly Jour,
nal, We have determined on starting one OF tina,
description, to be entitled the THE WEEKLY
PIcAYUNB.n
ToadoPt the same Gguratiye style used in ou1
first prospectus, we have fitted out the "Pica.
p1ae" Tor more distant voyages, and freighed
her with all sorts of notions in the shape OF
reada6teS; and if the same success attends her
which she has met with while coasting nearer
home, we shall doubtless receive rich returns.
10 prepare our little craft for the more ex-
tended sea on which she is destined TO move.
we have put on her many additions and i'm
Provemenls. Some Of her old timbers have
been taken out and replaced by new-she has
a greater measurement foreand aft, greater
length OF beam, and her sheets have been ma
lerially enlarged.
Notwithstanding the Increased size, the pub
lie may rest assured that the 'Picayune' will be
enabled to work in Shodi yater with the same
facility as heretofore, and form channels of
communication which it would be folly for the
dull, heavy vessels at present sailing this ptor
TO navigate.
