THE SONG OF THE SHIRT.


We cannot better conclude our account of the
shirt sewers than by repubishing Hoods "Song of
the Shirt" 1t peculiarly appropriate in this place;
and our readers will find, from the scenes Of destitu-
ton we have presented from real life among por-
ton Of the shirt Of New York. that the misery
it describes is not exaggerated but painfully true.
We hope it will not be read with feeling of ndfer
ence, and that the facts which we publish to day
may be the Of relieving this oppressed class Of
our working women. The best way to aid the shirt
sewer is by patronising those who set up on their
own account. Let those who have abundance Of
means, and who feel SO disposed, furnish them with
sgn and, if necessary, few articles of furntureto
make their rooms look neat, and they will do more
real good than they could in any other way. We
hope many days will not eapse before we shall see
signs, such those have suggested posted up on

A Deserted Slave Pen in Washington.

A correspondent; of the Syracuse, n. Y.
Chronicle writes from Washington thus:
CHANGING over on the ".lslund," the other
day, noticed that Wiliamson's slave pen
had been dIsmaniled, preparatory either TO n
removal or reconstruction Of the building.
"a is situated in lonely, though pleasant
spot. An air Of sorrow pcryudes it--ns
though the groans, and sighe, nnd blood of
lis viriims were still rising from ils cells, and
weighing down tho atmosphere with their
burden of grief. Could the old walls speak,
what tales of horror might they not unfold.
For many years they have daily enclosed
within their jaws many weary ones, who
would gladly have parted with life To escape
the fate upon which they there found theu-
selves entering. Tbilher--in sight of the free
Capitol of nation of freemen--hns been

sundered the family tie, parting the wife
from the husband, and the babe from the
.s.t'lsar, without hope of reunion this side
Of the grave. II was there that Solomon
Norihrup was dragged while under the in
flucnce of druggcd liquor, aud sold from
freedom into absolute slavery, from which he
escaped almost hy miracle, after twelve years

Stoves Legrce would have been an example
of kindness and humanity. How often the
walls of the pirates cave have resounded
to the blows OF the divers lash, as he beat
into submission the kidnapped being, who
like Norlbrup, asserted his freedom until
cowed into silence, God only knows. Would
to Heaven those walls might he removed
from view, and their very site be purified by
fire from on high. One cannot look thul
way without slIudder, lest the "pen" be
devoted again to human cattle. When the
French Busiile was levelled TO the ground

triumphed aud the den of horrors was no

White Slavery.

lfany attrocity is committed in connection
with slavery, Our dOuglface editors depre-
cate the exposure oi IL, lest it should produce
agitation &c. In Great Britain, on the con-
lrnry, even the most inveterate tory journals
employ special commissioners TO probe and
expose the evils connected with their social
system. The evils Of slavery are the results
of express, arbitrary, cruel legislation; the
evils of British poverty nre the results Of
various causes, developing through many
centuries. Slavery exists with the consent
of the United States government, and is Wig
orously sustained by the several States in
which it exists. In Great Britain, "white
slavery is not sustained by express laws,
although it is greatly the result of arstocrat-
ic and moneyocratic sefishness. Let our
doughiace presses take lesson from even
the London Times, the most nnprincipled
paper in Britain, in the boldness Of the fol-
lowing exposure of the evils Of white slave
ry.--.HaSs. Spy
TIE WHITE SLAVES OF LoNDON.-One of
the most remarkable effects of "Uncle Toms
Cabiu," (says the London Inquirer) has been
! to mike the inhabitants of countries where
there is no nominal Slavery, conscious of the
presence of great social evils almost worthy
Of that name. Several correspondents OF
the Times have lately been engaged in de-
piciing the shameful treatment of milliners'
| apprentices; one OF the correspondents pro-
posing that the ladies of England, with the
Duchess of Sutherland at their head. should
refuse to give their patronage to any houses
in which the twelve hour system is not
strictly adhered TO. The Times thus sketch
! es the scenes of misery which exist in the
most fashionable quarters Of luxurious Lon
don:
"The young female slaves of whom we
speak are worked in gangs in i'll ventilated
rooms, or rooms lhnts nre not ventilated at
all, for II is found by experience that it air
be admitted, il brings with il 'blacks' of an
other kind, which damage the work upon
which the seanIslresses are employed
| Their occupation is to sew from morning
ill night aud night I'LL morning-siicIi,
sillch, stitch, without pause--wlhOut speech,
without smile--without a sigh. In the
grey OF the morning they must be at work
say nt six o'clock having n quarter of an
hour allowed for breaking their fast. The
food served out to them is scanty aud miser-
able enough, but still, in all probability,
more than their fevered systems can digest.
We do not, however, wish to make out a
case OF starvationj the suffering is of die
ferent kind-equally dreadful Of endurance.

ness wiring their hearts; then will their souls
quiver with anguish; then will they realize
tnnt they are slaves. But these abuses nre
not the worst features of slavery. 1t is the
word itself.-slnvery-a word that calls up
all that is terrible to til, human heart; the
chained hand, the fetiered foot, the dwarfed
mind aud the crushed soul God pity the
slave God pity the master The chain
that binds the heel Of the one is riveted into
the heart of the other. That chain must be
broken; shivered link by link before either
master or slave is free. But the time is
coming, il must come, when men will hear
ken "to the higher law" which stiile it as
they may, is even beating ut the door Of
their hearts for admssion; when the slave
owner aud the nbolitionist shall join hands
to wipe out the dark stain that now duis
our nations fng, aud universal liberty shall
be our proud uiotto before the world.
