MEETING OF THE FACTORY GIRLS.


Yesterday afternoon the girls assembled by APP
had sent written invitations TO the manufacturers,
| offering the terms on which they would proceed to
work
No notice was taken by the manufacturers of the
invitations. Their silence and absence were con-
cevcd to bea sufficient negative to their ultimatum,
and the girls accordingly proceeded to take their
measures.
Mr.. Fleeson submitted the following preamble
and resolutions:
Whereas we have, on three different occasions,
respectfully invited the cotton factory managers of
Allegheny city to meet with us to negotiate for an
arrangement Of the factory difficulties between us;
and whereas they have refused even to attend our
meetings which called to suit their convenience,
but treated US as servile persona with whom they
could not condescend TO confer: therefore
Resolved, That we will not 60 to work under the
present tweve-hour system, God helping, though
our manufactures should never 60 into operation
again.
Resolved, That we will seek other employment
and means Of living and place ourselves beyond the
need of public bounty'as fast as we possibly can.
Resolved, That we pledge ourselves to refrain
from violence OF all kind, under any and every pro-
vocation.
Resolved, That we appeal to the mechanics and
workngmen of the two cities, and to all other free
and candid men, to say whether we have not made
every reasonable concession; and can you SAX that
we 60 into the manufactures again an the virtual
slaves of the naughty and uncourteous manufactu-
rers.
Committees were then appointed to procure the
signatures of the operatives to pledge that they
would not accept employment under the twelve
hour" system.
The resolutions were adopted unanimously. The
declaration that they would not submit to the twelve
hours, was received with reclamation.

land cents yard, would pay duty of but mills.
But, when the importer enters the cloth at the GUS
tom-house, and offers to pay the duty Of mills per
yard, which would be 30 per cent 'ad vaorem, the
collector tells him he must pay cents, instead of
mills. The importer asks him why he demands 6
cents per yard duty, when the law says it shall be
taxed only 30 per cent. ad valorem, which is 9
mills' The collector rcpes ''True, the law says
you shall pay only 80 per cent your cloth; but ii
also saysfor the purpose Of protecting Abbott Law
renee who is worth million Of dollars; Nathan APP
peton, worth another million Samuel Appleton,
worth another million; and numerous others, worth
hundreds of thousands each, manufacturers Of cot.
ton--that all cloth costing less than 90 cents a
square yard, shall be assumed TO hare cost 90 cents
and on that 20 cents the duty must be paid, which
is cents. Now, you paid, il is true, but cents
in England for your cloth; but the tariff Says for the
purpose of protecting the aforesaid manufactures,
that you paid 20 cents, which is the minimum, or
least possible price the tariff supposes you have
paid; and, therefore, 80 per cent. 20 cents is
cents; and, instead of mills, you must pay cents
duty" The importer replies: "Then, SIR while the
tariff prefends to tax only 80 per cent, by stating
falsehood in assuming that my cloth cost 90
cents square yard, instead Of 3 cents--it actu-
| ally, under this wicked device of minimum
duty, taxes me 200 per centll" He then con-
soles himself with the reflection, that, in the end
he shall not pay that enormous duty; but he
will add il to the cost Of the cloth, and will make
the poor man who buys the cloth pay it. Thus
through this mendscious, fraudulent, and cheating
invention Of minimums, is the consumer defrauded
Of duty equal to 200 per cent, while the tariff
prstends to exact only 30 per cent. of him. This
illustration explains the principle of minimum
duty. The effect of this enormous duty is to
exclude the coarse cotton cloths from our market,
and to leave to the American manufacturer of the
articles complete monopoly of their sale.
As have before remarked, there are three mini
NUNS applicable to fabrics Of which cotton il q
component part, and two applicable to cotton yarns.
They are, in substance, a. follows:

 EDITED BY THOMAS DUNN ENGLISH. FENHE ARISI4DEAN combines the solidity. of 1 the review and the lghtncsvof tue magazine, with the political cast of the newspaper.
 In no case is the name of the author attached to his article. At the end of each volume list of the writers during the parod just closed is presented but the judgment of the public, the ayowal of the writers themselves, must declare which tlaif several productions. Till then. there exists an i'm piled obligation Of secresy between the editor and his coaborators. Fer this reason, the Aristidean will not bs bound to mere nanes
 The politics ofthe Aristdeanis Denncratic- after the strictest precepts of the Jelersonian school.
