Wing Statements Endorsed.

Although compelled to dissent from the rea-
sonings and deductions of our opponents, we
always hold ourselves in readiness 10 endorse
statements which come from such sources, that
tell against themselves and their party princi-
Piles, and which are invested with common
plausibihty. Of such nature are the state
ments contained in the paragraph which fol-
lows. and which our neighbor of the Tribune,
published recently in an editorial form -
The editor of the Kennebec Journal, in a
letter from Boston, makes the following state
ments in relation to the remunerations which
laborers receive in that city Wealth and lux
ury are on the increase, with the increase of
business /; and so, alas, are poverty and desti-
tuition. The rich grow richer, and in many
empioyments, the poor poorer. The employer
too often increases his own profits while his
workmen or workwomen are compelled to re-
ceive less and less for their scanty subsistence.
Particularly is this the in the clothing
business, in some establishments at least
There many honorable and liberal men en-
gagged in this department here, who pay com
paratively fair prices but they can give EN-
ployment to only small portion of the work
people who depend upon the business for bread,
and many of these labor for pi;tance which
we should hardly suppose would keep soul and
body together. There are some females as
am informed, who are obliged to labor unre-
mittlngly to earn a dollar and a half per week,

The LAST OF THE POISONING CASE. Hen.
ry Chapman, the man who was SAID 10 be
poisoned, but whose contradictory stories
have rendered the whole affair extremely
dubious, had so far recovered his agility on
tuesday last, as 10 run away. With his
convalescence came also prudent care for
his worldly comfort and prosperity, for he
carried with him small sum OF his Ianda-
dy's money, and divers articles of minor val

Whether he intends TO deposit these last ar

know that the next family IN winch he may

IMPRIsoNEMENT OF SIXTY FIVE AMERICANS.
We published yesterday morning des-
patch from New York, announcing the i'm
prisonement of sixty-fi five Americans al Tehu-
antepec. They were passengers from San
Francisco in the steamer Gold Hunter, and
il seems were landed at Tehuantepec, in vio-

Ter requires investigation, and will doubtless
