ter paid than the actual builders now are.
The organization Of any one trade on this
basis paves the way for The others and if
ten trades were now so organized AMI at
work, you could not keep others from fol-
lowing the example. IT. however, the La
boring Class reject all such ideas Of pacific
reconstruction and assimilation Of the in
terests of Capital and Labor, aud amuse
themselves with strikes, professions, gaqsy
speeches, getting up new parties, standing
idle and drinking grog, under the impress
sion that they are likely to improve their
condition by such means, they will wake
from their delusion good deal worse off
than when their agitation was begun.
Such talk will offend many, but it seems
to be needed; and we trust it will be pom
dered. We are willing to be deemed an
enemy Of the LabOriDg Class, rather than to
acquiesce, even by silence, in a course Of
proceeding which never did and never can
produce anything but i'll will and misery.
The Laboring Class Of our cities, meager as
are their present resources, may diminish
these by devotiDg themselves to a career of
barren strife and fruitless CONFUSION. Let
them be warned before it is too late.

EAsTANALLEE, Oct, Is. 1850.

Mr.. Ediior-Thinking that you might
wish to know something as 10 the where's
abouls of your old friend Ticklepncher,
who so mysteriously disappeared from your
town, can inform you that he passed
Gown this way lew days since, with a
large sheet of gingerbread under his arm.
When saw him he looked pale and mel
ancholy. and was singing in low and SOL
emn cadance. Icould only gather the frs,
verse Of the mournful di,,y:
"There was little archer, and bis name
was Love,
And he died long ago. long ago,
He had little palace in The bright clouds
above,
And he had little culver and bow.
Then lay down the sonnet and the rose,
Pick up the arrows and the bow;
He'll shoot no more, the sweet boy, Love,
He's gone where the true lovers CO."
II is thought he was looking for some-
body. Poor Ticklepi,cher! his fate is truly
a lonely and sorrowful one.
Yours, SALLY Ass.

AN INGENIOUS JERsEYMAN.-In a notice
of a recent fair held at Newark, NJ, the
Daily Advertiser refers to a very ingenious
clock which was exhibited by Mr.. A. d.
Crane. 1t requires winding but once in
365 days, and hence the ordinary chances
of accident by removing the shade TO wind
it, &C.. are very much lesscned as com.
pared with an ordinary eight day clock
b. simple inspection, it gives the time of
day, the days Of the month during the whole
year. the rising and setting of the sun and
moon for any latitude, The phases Of the
moon, and the time Of the sun and moon
entering the signs, high and low tide. &c.
This clock is also improved SO as to com.
pensatc for the differences Of the motive
power. and is calculated 10 be isochronal,
the absence OF which property in time keep,
ers has formerly been q very serious Of.

A Coon LlcK-The following good
fling at the abotionisls is from the New
York Express:
"The aboli,ionists say. "it is a terrible

ifi is, we OF New York have no more to do
with it than If il were in Siam. Japan, or
the Tongoo Islands. Virginia is, in all
things connected with slavery. as indepen-
dent of this Federal Government as is
Spain or France. But il this surplus of
sentiment is among US, there is room
enough for its qualification among the free,
but social slave blacks, even OF our own
city. So God torsaken, wreiched set OF

THE LATE ELECTIONS.

Some of our contemporaries seem W '"i""
theState elections which have recently taken
Mace rather ndicatc that the star OF Demo-
cracy is again ascending. and are eS"'ing
no little at what they term ",hc glorious
result" To this of course there can be no
sort of objection, as it is n harmless doIi.
sion, shat INJURIES no one, md serves 10
unc,fv and hattcr the de'uded. who might
otherwise droop, despair, and die. But Tor
the life of is we canot find out tue "hlnge'
upon which the late elections turned or
see any thing in the results to cause one
nor,v to exut or the other to dcspond. In
Mary land the Democrats have elected the
Governor, and the Wings five out OF the
seven State Senators to be chosen at the last
election. and which secures them heavy
majority in the Legislature. In Pennsy''
yania it is said the Democrats have gained
two members to Congress, willie they nave
lost in the State LEGISLATURE. In one or two
of ,heCongressional districts there were two
Whir candidates. In Ohlo, there were
three candidates for observation-disclosures,
Wing; Wood, Democrat; Smith Free Or :
Ii is said the Democrat is successful. IN
the Legislature it is said the Wings nave
paincd seven Representatives and enc Sena'
tor, which gives them the aScendchcy IN
that BODY, and will enable them to elect
United States Senator, both for the existing
vacancy and for the full term. In the Cons
pressionul elections, as far as heard from
the Wings have gained one member, IN the
District represented by Mr.. Swee'zer. 30
upon the whole, we think the "honors are
about easy" and that the Wings have lost
nothing really, and The Democrats gained
less.
The late elections have, we believe, been
marked by less excitement than usla'' inc
public mind having been chiefly drawn 10
the al.ubsorbng question before Congress
At its late exciting session. Such however
will not be the case in regard TO the clec'
lions that are to come off next year. In
this State the canvass will be most impor-
liant, and will be warmly contested. AL
ready some Of the papers are sounding The
notes of preparation, with view to an
early opening aud vigorous prosecution oil
the campaign. 1t seems TO be conceded That
Gov. Trousdale will again be candidate.
As yet there ore no indications as to who
will probably be chosen as the standard
bearer of the Wing party. We have heard
the name of r. A. Il. NELSON, Esq, OF
Washington county. spoken of-a most
worthy and talented gentleman. who has
done much hard service ind made many
sacrifices to promote the principles OF his
party. But there is time enough yet to aGl-
tate the subject. However, when the Sc
lection is nude we trust it will fall upon
One who has not only given evidence Of his
devotion to Wing principles, but also OF
his soundness upon the true policy of the
State in her domestic and internal affairs,
which we regard as of paramount impor'
lance.

STAMMERJNG.-Dr. Turner, of Newark,
New Jersey, IN published note on this
subject. says:
Permit me TO say that stammering is
caused by attempts to speak with empty
lungs. In singing, the lungs are kept well
inflated, and there is no suffering. Tho
method Of cure is to require the patient to
keep his lungs well filled-to draw frequent
long breslhs, TO speak loud, and to pause on
the instant Of finding embarrassment in his
speech, taking long inspiration before he
goes Oh again. Icured one Of the worst
cases | ever knew on this principle
