From the Cincinnati Chronicle and Atas
A discussion, before the Presbyterian General
Assembly, touches upon one OF the most important
questions. which now agitates Civil Society. This
i the just the healthy, the righteous relation
which should subsist between Labor and Capital
We are glad that such question arises even Incl
deutaly within the bounds Of the Church. For
sooner or later the Church must meet this question
in its tremendous magnitude. and wide cIrcum.
ference. One great fact stands cut from Modern
Civilization, and yet has scarcely been noticed by
either Statesmen or Divines Il is that Modern
Civilization has cp, asunde- the relations which
subsisted IN Ancient Times and the Middle Ages,
between Power and Dependence, between Capital
ard Labor. between Master and Servant. II has
cut them ssunder; bat what has it substituted -
The Political Economist replies, the relation be-
tween suppiy and demand True, and nothing
else But IS the relation between supply and de-
mapd q religious relation VIII il answer the de.
mands Of Charity VIII it feed the poor VIII
II make grateful hearts VIII it leave the Church
without STAIN and without reproach, IN rs conduct
toward the world
The rslation Of supply and demand is an ab-
straction OF Commerce. Ii IS hard, grinding and
relentless in ell its dealings It coins human sweat
into dollars and is deaf 20 the cry of human wo.
Now the world begins 70 see this. Il begins 70
see. that even the hospitality which was never
denied BY the Feudal Baron 70 his dependant re-
tanners IS denied 10 those, who no longer able 70

There are but two modes OF cheaPening any
manufacture
First BY improving the arts, either Agriculture
or machinery. 60 lar il IS legitimate and proper
reduction Of cost. The second mode Is, by re-
ducing the price Of labor. This too IS legitimate
and just 50 far as i. corresponds only 70 reduction

Beyond that, il is cruel and unjust Bat now that
