CORRECTION OF THE Political LoG.-Some
time since, before the October elections de-

announced that Wadsworth would carry this
State. But the returns from Pennsylvania,
Ohio and Indiana reveal the fact that strong
conservative tide has set in, and that it is roll
ing onward with momentous strides, sweeping
everything before It. This revolution has been
SO rapid, so overwhelming, that we now correct
our political Log" and announce that we do
not believe that Wadsworth can carry this State
under any circumstances, but that he will be
defeated by large majority. We call upon all

WoRKIN0NENs STRIKE Fer HIGHER WAGES
MIsMANAGExENr OF THE NATIONAL FINANCES
We see that the era of workingmen's strikes has
Just dawned, adding new source Of trouble to
those under which the community has been suf
fering for some time past The longshoremen
had strike yesterday, demanding that their
wages be increased from twelve shillings to
fourteen shllings per day, and the usual plan OF
preventing others from working at the old price
has been resorted to. The leather-workers in
the Swamp have also made similar move.
fixing a certain rate of prices, under which they
say they will no longer work. The reason
alleged is the large increase in the prices Of all
the necessaries Of life. We have no doubt that
within a week or two most, If not all, Of the
other trades will follow in the same course; and
If their demands be not complied with much
suffering and trouble are likely to result.
This state Of things arises directly from the
miemanagement Of our national finances by the
Secretary Of the Treasury. Owing to his igno-
rance of the science Of finance, and to the un-
wise policy which he has adopted, the national
credit has fallen FROM twenty-five to thirty-five
per cent. The prices of all commodities
have adapted themselves TO this depreciation
of the currency, so that one has really to pay
hundred dollars IN currency now for what,
some months since could be had at seventy
five dollars or less; and as the rates Of
wages have not kept pace with the depreciation
of currency, and have not, in fact been raised at
all on account of It, the families Of workingmen
and Of all others find themselves one-third
poorer than they were some time since. The
