By the courtesy of gentleman of this city, we are
permitted to take the following extract from pri-
vate letter. received on yesterday from leading and
weinformed gentleman of New York. Referring to
recent adyices from the South, he says:
also roiced to find favorable reports from the South
for the American cause. II there time when the
South ought 10 stand nedy for its candidates
this the time, and Fillmore and Donelson are the men,

Northern State except New York. The foreign vote will be

leaving earthly chance for the Democratic party even if it
had not lost immensely from both American and Black Replb-
lican inr0ads.

Fremont and Lager Beer,

The Germans of New York were addressed the
other night by Hecker the German orator from Illi-
nois, in speech replete with falsehoods about the
South. Among other statements he asserted that
white aborers at the South were compelled to eat the
same food with slaves and to put up with every spe-
cies of idignity. Now, any man who has ever lived
at the South will testify that poor white man there
is person of far consequence than he is at the
North, and that the mere fact of man being white
is sufficient of itself to give him much higher posi-
ton than it does elsewhere The reason is obvious.
1t cannot well be otherwise in slave-holding COM
munity. Washington Organ 10th.
The New York Freesoil papers have on numerous
OCCASIONS seemed to delight in misrepresentng the
social condition and personal and pecuniary ndepend
ence of the aboring classes South They have strven
to make their readers believe that laboring man in
this section Of the confederacy is looked upon as
underling and treated with contumey, while at the
North he walks forth freeman and is respected and
honored accordingly Here two falsehoods are in
yolved, accompanied by all the attributes of double
dealing and hypocrisy The truth is not told regard
ing either the North Or the South. The poor man
South is, in all respects, better off than the poor man
North His labor is always in demand, and remuner-
ating prices are almost invariably paid for it. This
places him IN condition Of comparative pecuniary
independence-places him above the abject seryilty
to the wealthy which want too often imposes upon the
overcrowded laborng population of the North Every
man Of observation, who has Travelled North, will
verify the exact truth of this proposition. Besides this,
the treatment labornS man receives North and
South is precisely antipodal. There he is regarded
simply as piece of machinery for the use of which
so many dollars and cents are to be paid per month,
per week or per day. Whatever thought the wealthy
employee bcstows upon Ills human machines is to as
certain how much profit he can extract from their
brains, bones and sinews.' Nothing more. Here, in
the maligned and ved South, the case is precisely
the reverse Not only can laboring man make twice
as good living with half the labor that he can in
the North, but he is regarded as human being,
treated as an equal and encouraged fostered and ad
vanced just in proportion to his skill, merits and
integrity.
The North may be good country for rich men, but
for the poor man--for the man who depends upon his
brains and his labor for subsstence-the glorious
South is the country.
