Democratic Opinion of Labor
ing Men.


Senator Hammond, Of South Caroline
at the last session of Congress dssig
mated the free laboring men Of ths
North as "grcasy mechanics and .mud
stills" Senator Brown, Of Mississippi, q
few days ago asserted that 1.-THE slaves Of
the South occupy higher position NOR
ally, socially and physically than any
other laborers on the globe'-and OF
course higher than working mon in the
free States. Senator Mason, Of Virgin
ia, in speech made last week, snoered
at Northern laborers as " servile" race.
It was political axiom Of John G. Cal
houn that capital should own the labor.
The Richmond Enquirer asserts that the
natural condition Of the laboring classes,
of whatever color, is slauery. The New
York Day Book advocates the adoption
of a law by the free State Legislatures,
to sell the poor white people.
Hammond, Brown and Mason recog.
nized as among she most Influential
lenders Of the Democratic party. John
{. Calhoun was the author Of its polite
al dogmas, and the Enquirer and Day
Booh are ranked among its ablest or.
gans and expounders. Ought not the
working men Of the North to have a
high regard for party whose leaders
and organs speak thus contemptuously
ct them, and would, if they could, reduce
them to the condition of slaves.-Prcss
