WoRKINGMENl-A day or two since, say:
the Trenton Trne Democrat, our attention wal
directed to a large ship laying at a Phiiadel
phia wharf unloading a cargo Of iron! Amer
ieda laborers, you who are out of employment
does not the necessity of an adequate protec
ton to home industry force itself upon you!
While we can manufacture better iron in this
country, than in Europe our workmen cannot
live on ten ceutsla ay and compete with
pauper laborI Tie Hodact of that labor is
shipped to our Shores and our own workshop
are closed, and the employees thrown out 0
employment. The Opposition ask that pro
lection may be given, but the South who con.
troll the present Administration protest against
it and demand free trade. The remedy is in
your own hands, and if you return to Con-
gress, such tuckling tools to the slave power,
as Messrs. Wright, Huyler and Wortendyke,
you can expect no better state of affairs than
at present exist.

saSeA-eneral Scott had a very severe fall on
the stairs at Cozzens' Hail, West Point, last
week. He was about attending a dinner par
ty given to him at Col. Delafeld's when the
accident happened. Having had a bullet
through one shoulder, and a sword thrust
through the other arm during his campaigns,
he was unable to break the force of the fall
by his arms, and his back was severely injured
He cannot move without great pain. He has
been cupped and leeched, and is somewhat bet
ter, but suffers intensely. At his aaage, and
with so pondeross a tsahe, it. a seriou affair
to have such "a faaii, cSs fortunate 10 ess
cape with life.
