gSy- The annexation of Alexandria to Virginia
drove many free negroes to this city few
years ago, and the generality of them are of an
idle and vicious kind. There are many excellent
people among the free colored folks of Washing"
ton, but the general character is Indifferent, and
so decidedly SO that in all discussions respecting
the improvement of the colored people of the
United States, IN unfortunate sample is at hand.
The more intelligent and influential of the colored
people, and the peculiar friends Of that race
should endeavor to reform this: they should en-
deayor to illustrate in this District the capabity
of that whole people to become intelligent moral,
sober, INDUSTRIOUS orderly, and thrifty. The
effect of such an exhibition on our national legis-
lation might often be beneficial. Come, now,

The government is inviting proposals for sew
eral large works, which viii scatter some of the
millions in the last appropriation bills We hope
the bidders for these contracts, where labor is to
be performed, will remember that the "laborer
is worthy of his hire" The government has
wisely repudiated the destructive idea that the
lowest bid" shall demand the contract. This
is just and humane stand. 1t is mutually pro-
tective of the government and the mechanic. 1t
plainly tells the contractor that he shall not cheat
with mean and miserable work, and starve the
mechanic. The increased rate of living in Wash
ington renders an increase Of wages absolutely
necessary The mechanics and laborers cannot
live and keep out of debt on the present scale of
prices Those employed on the Capitol and other
public works have already petitioned the Presi-
dent for additional pay, and we learn the sub
ject has been referred for proper consideration.
We cannot doubt that these worthy men will have
their necessities relieved The demand for labor
next year in Washington, on public and private
buildings, will exceed anything ever known or
expected Let contractors take heed, and save
themselves by respectable margins to retreat
upon We do not advise anything adverse to the
interests of the government but we do most
earnestly urge upon contractors the necessity of
protecting themselves and the men who toll for
them. In government Of the people, let the
welfare of the people be ever kept in view.
