Important Notice to LabOrers

The most extravagant conclusions have
been taken by large number of worthy la
borers abroad that, in Cincinnati, an immense
demand exists for workers on our street rail-
roads. In great numbers, at cost to them
selves, they crowd by the railroads into this
city, expecting immediate wages, payable in
cash. These expectations are entirely delu-
sive. There are more than abundant hands
here for all the railroad routes projected.
We announce that the City Council last night
adopted resolution refusing to make any
extension, or to construct any new routes for
two months to come. Save your money, la
borers, and do not rush into a great city
where no adequate demand for your labor
eyists

we must have cheap sugar.
Hon. Senator Slidell, of Louisiana. another
of the Democratic Doctors, says the reason we
want Cuba, is, not cheap sugar, but desire
to put an end to the slave trade.
Then again, Hon. Senator Brown, OF Mis-
sissippi, says, Oh, no,-the reason we want
Cuba is to extend slavery.

Brown is near sighted" We want Cuha
