IT'S TIMEi

! - ~
IT was on winters morning,
The weather wet and wild. -
Three hours before the dawning,
The father reused bis. child; 4
Her daily morsel bringing, &l
The .darksome room be paced,
And cried, 1.-THE bellisnnging, tssn
My hapless darling, haste!"
"Father,I'm up, but weary,
scarce anreachihe door,
And long the way and dreary- q
Oh, carry me once more! IN i
Tobelp us we've no mother, ~ ~
And you have no employ;
They killed my little brother,-
Like him I'll work and die"
Her wasted form seemed nothing,
The load was at his heart; te .t a
The sufferer he kept soothing,
Till at the mill they part. q
The overlooker met her,
As to her frame she crept,
And with his thong he beat her, ,- "
And cursed her as she wept.
Alas! what hours of horror,
Made up her latest day,
In toll, and pain, and sorrow,
They slowly passed away: ...
1T seemed as she grew weaker,
The threads they oftner broke,
The rapid wheels ran quicker,
And heavier fell the stroke.
The sun had long descended.
But night brought no repose,
HER day begun and ended
Ascruel tyrants chose.
AT length little neighbor
Her half-penny she paid,
To take her last hours labor,
While by her frame she laid.
At last the engine ceasing,
The captives homeward rushed;
She thought her strength increasing
IT was hope her spirits flushed; .-
She left, but oft she tarried;
She fell, and rose no more,
Till by her comrades carried,
She reached her fathers door
Atnight, with tortured feeling,
He watched his speechless child,
While, close beside her kneeing,
She knew him not, nor smiled;
Again, the factory's ringing,
Her last perception tried;
When, from her straw be-! springing,
cts -IME!" she said-and died.

DEAR SrR:-I owe it to the afflicted to inform
you that in January last | was attacked by a very
violent cod-caused by working in water, which
settled on my lungs 1t was accompanied by a
very severe pain in my breast and side, and also
distressing cough. had in attendance all the best
medical aid in our village, and after exhausting
their skill to no avail they pronounced my disease
confirmed Consumption, and one and all gave
me up to die. After much persuasion ! got the
consent ofmy. physician to use Wistar's Balsam of
Wild Cherry prepared by DR.. Wistar. purchas-
ed OF the agent in our place one bottle, before U.S.
ing half of which, began to gain strength, and it
was very evidentmy cough was great deal better,
aud my symptoms in every way improving. /
have now used three bottles, and am restored to
health The result is alone owing to the use OF
DR.. Wistars Balsam of Wild Cherry, and | take
this method of giving you the information, partly
to pay the debt Of gratitude owe you, and partly
that others similarly afflicted may know where to
apply for relief.
Respectfully and truly yours,

See what manufactures do for the laborng
classes, men, women and children. The Mer-
rmac Company at Lowell, whose dividends are
so often quoted, employs l,250 women, whose
average earnings considerably erceed s. each
per week above the cost Of their board. The
labonng men average 85 cents per day above
their board; ffty-six overseers receive 81 each
day, with occasional premiums. The average
working time Of each hand is but ten hours and
q half. In the Boote mills a careful account
Of working time has been kept, and it appears
that LOG girls averaged 267 days each in year,
and ten hours eight minutes per day each, being
paid according to her work, and all paid in
cash every month, not one farthing in store or
ders or barter Of any kind. The average earn.
ings Of the women in all the factories, inclu-
ding novices, is 81 90 per week, besides their
board. Many girls who have been school
teachers gladly take places in the mills, as the
pay is higher here, and the work lighter, though
the hours are longer. No one has lost a six
pence Of her earnings in the Lowell factories
since the first was started. The girls have
about 100000 in the Savings Bank. Such is
the condition Of the laboring class in the prin-
cipal manufacturing town in America.-JMay,-

Briscoe Bill and Briscoe ties.

| Most of our readers are well aware that from
the very time the Locofocos attempted to maxi
this question in the coming election, we OPP
| posed, so far as we could, the acceptance Of
such an issue by our party. We felt satisfied,
and events have fully shown we were correct,
that it was an issue that they could success
fully tender only in lew Counties, and that
their sole object was to draw off a few bank
indebted wings from the party in those few
Counties; Counties too in which the wings had
always maintained a maj ority. Wekave never
as yet given an opinion, edtoraly, as to the
merits or dement's of that Bill we would not
do il now were it not that we are continually
called upon, at the corners and on the streets,
for our oPiaion. We give our opinion now,
once for all, and hope that hereafter we may be
let alone. We will not again write Of it,
as Editor.
In the first place then, we believe that the
original Briscoe Bill, as introduced by its re-
pSted father into the Legislature, for the pur-
pose of releasing himself and others from their
Bank debts, is strictly declaration of the COM
mon Law as it has ever existed, except the in
Junction clause-
I'd. We believe that the injunction clause
was absolutely necessary to secure the objec,
which the reputed father Of the bill, and his as
sociBtes had in view, and that the Legislature
had full power to enact it.
Sd. We believe that all personal property be-
longing Of corporations becomes forfeited
to the State, whenever judgment Of su'-
ter is pronounced upon them by the Court;
and that il debts due corporations are personal
property, then the State can collect such debts;
and we believe that debts are personal proper
fy; lawyers may differ With us.
4th. As TO Guion's amendment, to appoint
assignees &C., we believe the Legislature had
full power 10 make this amendment; but
we have yet to learn that any Bank that
has been placed in the hands Of sssignees has
ever enriched any one-excePt the assignees.
We believe all banks are unconstitutional and
nuisances, and, as such they should be pre-
scented by Grand Juries.

Except as heretofore amended by General
Gaines, the Constitution (as our readers are
aware) gives no power to any body but Con-
gress "to provide for calling forth the militia
t, execute the laws of the Union, suppress in
surections, and repelinvasons." That power,
Congress has not, that we can find delegated
to Gen. Gaines. Yet it seems clear that, in
this era Of strict construction and Of Democrat
ic ascendency, civil and military, large body
of Louisiana militia are by this time in ths
field, upon the call of Gen. Gaines; although
the President himself could not legally issue
nor Congress enact such an order, unless in
case which certainly has not yet occurred. 1t
seems fated, in this Texas business, that the
! Observation-Disclosures shall not move peg, ex-
cent to rack some string of the Constitution
or Laws.-Na.. h'teihgeneer.
