Strong as 10 all this Il is nevertheless true England
is engaged in war OF determination wagcd against
tho labor of all other countries employed In any purA
suit except that Of raising produce 10 be sent to
her own market, there to DO exchanged for the clo<h

aiionares who have accumulated their vast fortunes
at the expense of Ireland India Portugal Turkey and
the other countries that have been ruined BY the sys
TEN which she denominstes free trade In The effort 10
crush them she has been crushing her own people, and
the more rapid the spread OF pauperism homo the
greater have been her efforts 10 produce the surplus ~

Throughout this country workmcn object 70 the en-
ployment OF convict labor The tendency w. shy thcy.
to reduce the Of wages because the labor OF con-
ycts cannot be sold except ct reduced prices; ana
every attempt at rendering penientiaies solfsuppos

At one and the same time, for the same commodity.
That admitted we would beg readers now to re-
rerse the extract just given and see II the System e.
tabished in Great Britain Is not precisely the same
against which they protest when attempted to be esh-
lished among ourselves Ifthey compete with
conyicts here can they compete with the men abroad
Who are compelled to cry, "Give mo work make your
own terms my wife and family stsrvingl" lrc-
land abounds with men who cannot obtain employment,
even ut twelve cents per day. Scotland has its hun
dreds Of thousands Of people always at the starvs-
ton point and England has Its hundreds OF thou
sands whose whole earnings for the support Of
themselves, their wives and their families, ara
but Elk or seven sbillngs week. The whole kingdom

with who cry, "Give mo work make your own
terms And It's with these that England invites
the competition of tho world Her system tends TO tho
destruction OF the laborer home and abroad 1t s to
its working is so well described in recent work Of
great ability in regard TO one branch of trade (the
taiors that we are tempted to give the extractswhch
