The triumph Of the candiddh Of the Democratic
party. brought forsoord BY the men Of the South ,clt
secure, probably for euer. me Gsesndancy Of liberal
commercial principles ; and If Lord Derby should
next year be disposed to take the American tariff
for his model, we have little doubt that it will
10 remove the last iusions Of the protective
system from his mind. In this respect, and on
this point, we take General Pierce to be fair re-
preventative of the opinions Of Mr.. Calhoun, and,
such, uaunbe practical ally to the commercial
policy Of this country. ..,., 1885,.

The election Of General Pierce ,o any rate prove
that the Democratic majority, whatever may be their
other differences, are unanimous in their testimony
on behalf Of liberal commercial policy, and any
Government he may form will DO one on which
this country may rely for efsctual cooperation in re-
dlcing, wherever practicable, existing impede
ments to international intercourse. 49,,

GENERAL PiERoE's LErrER.-We publish in full
the letter OF General Pierce upon the New Boston
speech. The cautious Indebtedness and vague
generalities with which the charge is met will
prove little acceptable to those whose support he
hopes TO gain by the denial. There is difference
Of nearly week between the date Of the letter and
that 10 which it is in reply, and Of nearly three
weeks between the date of the letter and the time
Of its publication. General Pierce declares that
We report made the spot, by not unfriendly

We copy the above from the Pennsyluanian.
Mr.. SoULE seems to think as well Of General
PIERCE as the London Times does, or the
London Leader, or the Manchester Examiner.
From what we have read and heard of Mr..
SoULE's speeches, and from what all the world
knows of his violent anti Compromise, Seces
sion, and Dsunion tendencies, we should hard
ly imagine that his ''Mosr ABSOLUTE AND UN-
RESERVED CONFIDENCE" IN General PIERCE
would be very high recommendation 10 the
American people. 1t is not very strange that
Mr.. SouLE should entertain this confidence in
candidate Gas Mr.. FORSYTH says) ''ef his
o,on creation and choice" But it is suffi-
GENTLY odd that both PRESTON KING and
PIERRE SouLE should be equally enthusiastic
in the support of the same individual.

That the memorialists are understood to be day
laborers employed in the service Of the Govern
ment, under the direction Of the Commissioner Of
Public Buildings. They ailege that they have not
been, and are not now, paid the Same amount Of
wages received by others who perform similar
services for private contractors within the city;

they have been in the receipt only Of one dollar
They complain-no doubt with trqth-that the ex.
cessive high price Of rents, marketing, and other
for them 10 provide for their families and yecom-
fortably upon such low wages. 2" Faes#aA@
This meritorious class Of our citizens cannot,
from the very nature Of their employment. be en-.
gagged in service more than q portion OF the year
They are only paid for the time they are actually
engaged, and receive no wages when rain, incle-
ment weather, or other circumstances prevent
tnelr employment. Wpen tnc6e IaCts arc COuvlo-
cred, the wnges they receive will be regarded
as very small and inadequate. But, while the
committee sympathize with them, and do not
hesitate to say that, if the facts alleged be true,
tho Commissioner is derelict in duty in not al
lowing them wages equal to those received by
laborers in private employment, they regret that
it is not in their power 10 recommend SPECIFIC
relief. There 10 no good reason why the SER
vice of the citizen to the Government should not
he as well remunerated az when that service 10
rendered to another citizen; and II 10 neither JUS
tiee nor wise policy in the officers Of Government
to exercise iiiberal parsimOny or niggard scanti-
meas in the reward OF labor, when that labor - per-
formed by the poor and hard nottingham of ia
mily. The Commissioher of Public Buildings 10
fully authorized to pay reasonable and proper
wages to laborers and other workmen employed
by him upon the public buildings; and it 10 no
part OF bis duty to deal oppressivey with that class
Of citizens. The committee trust that, in the fu-
ture, that officer will see the propriety Of reward

with just degree Of hberality. They ask TO be
