md therefore ought not to deem rery heioous
crime the attempting to amend the existing
state OF human society We know good many
who make a lair living by doing that very ihiog'
and are very much respected for it-by us espe-
cially.-But what these mechanics 10y probes

should subject them 10 such language we cannot
understand. They do not seem 10 have stolen
anything, defrsuded anybody, nor attempted 10

They have bought few acres OF and, paid Tor IT,

aud his proper standing in society The idea OF
each man having " his proper standing Ia society
Is rather alarming to some peope-we have heard
that in that case some who now cut wide wati
would have Just no standing at ah-thelr feet
couldn't touch the ground. Being hostile to capi
tai punishment, we cant agree to that. Our Ger
ical friend we are sure, feels no uneasiness on
that score but what is he driving at J He boasts
that he neither knows nor cares " what Other
things these men are gong to do and yet we
can't perceive that he has recited any thing that
insthes his railing.
But they are certain to fail, he triumphsnty
assures us-to be scattered, coniounded aud d's-
appointed We fear he has them there. To give
every man "his proper s,andug In society Is
mighty work and 1t Is no dscred.t to twenty or
thirty poor mechanics to spprehend that It will
prove too mnch for them. What then WA

Of few Cincinnati iron founders is precious Ia our
eyes as a prophecy OF what Labor will ere long
not only attempt but accomplish for its own emSn-
cpation But then the Divine Law. It seems,
has doomed these mechanics to work for some
masters profit rather than their wherefore
their attempt to improve their condition is not
ridiculous simply, bat absurd and blasphemous.
We don't feel quite sure OF that. II Is Just as
much the Divine Law across the Ohio that la
boring men aud women shall be bought and sold
driven and whipped. Tor the benefit OF Their mas
ters: and we presume tins writer could just as
well pronounce any attempt TO change that alb
surd and bias phemOus for consideration. "

can get along in no other way. Calhoun Co
may as well discharge Enw God and give this nan

But then. ii the deplOred catastrophe o.
these poor mechanics managing to earn their own
bread aud eat 1t without sharing their earnings
with employers landlords, grocers, overseers, &c
