The Lynn strikers.

WOMEN IN THE PROCESSION YESTERDA In
Scorpions UPON THE BANNERS.
In the procession of the "strikers'' ofLynI
there were number of women, who moi
only entered heartily into the proceedings
but in many instances bore banners with the
following inscriptions, according to spe.
cial message to the Boston Traveller OF
March,:
"American ladies will not be slaves -
"Give as q fair compensation and We will
labor cheerfully."
Sincere and consistent
THE laborer is worthy of his hire
God favors the righteous cause
| 'Be sure you are right,and then go ahead.
'If our cause be not just now, when will
| it be?'
sBe lust and fear not Presented to the
| ladies by the cordwainers of ward T."
Industry is virtue, and labor is honors-
BILE in ALL
Our union is complete-our success GER
taip.'
'May justice overtake oppression
'Union is strength
'He that oppresseth the poor, reproacheth
his Maker
The male strikers of Lynn, who followed
them, have all the old banners, with the
inscriptions previously given, also the fol,
lowing:
'We throw Off oppression--we strike for
our rights
LET tyrants tremble when the people
rise.'
'Never despair-'well begun is as good as
half doHe.'
with the spirit of re, we hope to gain the
day.
Perseverance is our motto--we all unite
in the grand strike, to aid our friends and
brothers,
'As brothers We meet you-( Rockville)-
our cause is just
Hope never dies 'We are one.'
whilst we demand justice, we are deter
mined to do justice
Slow have difficulties disappeared before
determined resolutions p
Eve have thrown of the yoke of our op-
pressors-we will be slaves to nothing but
duty
'By industry we thrive If our cause is
just, lend us your aid.'
The Saugus strikers had several large
banners, with the following notices on
them:
united we stand, divided we fall what
we ask is justice, and the deeds We do are
just
sOur rights we will maintain
Strike till each foe expires.'
'The laborer is worthy Of his hire
'Unite with the Saugus strikers
'We care not for the scorner-our cause
is just
I'VE are men,
More pay
'We beg no brother OF the earth to give
US leave to toll
'We do not believe with the manufactur-
ers that one dollar is as good as two for the
jours.'
We'll neither starve, nor steal, nor beg
in Saapus-We'Il strike"

We have good to believe that the Breckenridge
faction in Virginia are in possession of large fund OF
money contributed no doubt by the officials othe Buch-
anan Administration, and by the Cotton States Disun-
onsts Efforts of all sorts will be made, by the free use
Of money thus obtained to carry the State for the Yam
cey-Disuuion candidate The DisunOuists of the Cotton
States would rather carry Virginia than half dozen
other States They want to tie the Old Dominion to the
Disuuion car thinking that will make their path
straight and they will employ every possible means to
eject their object.
We repeat that the Breckenridge faction are in pos
session of fund for in the present canvass as we
have excellent for believing; and we believe that
such fund was raised by contribution from the Cotton
States and from the Government at Washington. Let
the people be warned Let them keep their eyes wide
open For corruption siakelh abroad at MONDAY, and
the people themselves would be approached and their
integrity attempted to be undermined! Keep sharp
