Iuiring but a low order of intellect and

locility, fidelity. Such a class you must
rave, or you would not have that other

civilization It constitutes the very mud
ills of society and of political government

re old-fashioned at the South yet it is
word discarded now BY ears polite; but
will not characterize that class at the
North with that term but you have it;
it is there it is everywhere; it is e.cr-

NORTHERN LABORERS ARE BUT
SLAVES.
The Senator from New York said yes
tcrday that the whole world had abolished
Slavery. Aye, the name, but not the
thing; and all powers of earth cannot
abolish it. God only can do it when he
repeats the fiat, "the poor ye always have
with you;" for the man pho tires by dai-
~ labor, and scarcely tioes at that and
scho has TO put out has labor in the mar
kct and take The best he can get for Il; an
short your whote class Of manual tuborers
and operatives, as you call them, are
slaues The difference between us is that
our slaves are hired for life, and well
compensated; there is no starvation, no
begging, no want Of employment among
our people, and not too much employment
either Yours are hired By the day, not
cared for, and scantily compensated,
which may be proven in the most depor
able manner at any hour, in any street
in any of your large towns. Why, Sir,
you meet more bcggars in one day, in
any single street of the City of New \ ork,
than you would meet in whole life time
in the whole South. Our slaves are black,
of another, inferior race. The status in
which We have placed them is an eleva-
ton. They are elevated from the co0di-
ton in which God first created them. by
being made our slaves. None of that
race on the whole face of the globe can
be compared with the slaves Of the South
aud they know it. They are happy, cou-
tent, unsspiring, and utterly incapable
from intellectual degradation, ever to
give us any trouble by their aspirations.
Your slooes are uhite, ofyour o,rn race;
you are brothers Of one biood. They are
gour equuls in natuyci en3otcment Of IN
teilect, and they feel their degradation -
Our slaves do not vote. We give them
no political power. Yours do vote, and
being the majority, they are the deposi-
taries of all your political power. If they
knew the tremendous secret that the bal
lot box is stronger than an army with
bayonets AID combine, whore would You
be! Your Soci y would be rcconstruc-
ted, your property divided not as they
have mistakenly attempted to initiate
such proceedings by meeting 10 parks,
with arms in their hands, but by the qui-
ct process Of the ballot, box. You have
been making war upon Us to our very
hearthstones. How would you like for
is to send lecturers or agtators, North,
to teach these people this, to aid and as
sist in combining and to lead them.
Mr.. Wilson and othcrs--seud them
along.
NORTHERN LABORERS ARE BEG
GERS.
Mr.. Iammond-YOu say, send them
North. There is no need of that They
are coming here. They are laundering
at our doors for homestead of one hun
dred and sixty acres Of land for nothing
and Southern Senators are supporting it.
Nay, they are assembling, as have said
with arms in their hands, and demanding
work at 81 900 year and six hours a
day. Have you heard that the ghost Of
Mendoza is stalking in the streets of your
big cities; that the inquistion is at hand.
There is aRoat fearful rumor that there
have been consultations for vigilance
committees. You know what that means
already. Transient and temporary causes
have thus far been your preseryatien.-
The great West has been open to our sur
plus population, and your hon Dc, of semi
barbarian emigrants who arc crowdiDg in

ment, and you call it progress. With

toward vigilance committees. The South

You are our factors You bring aud car
