Thoughts for the White Laborer.

From the Catholic Telegraph, yJtiys.
SO long as slavery exists in the South you
cannot hope to be respected there, because if
you are poor your honesty will not protect
you from the sneer OF the master or the laugh
of the slave.
SO long as slavery exists in the South, the
white laboring man can never acquire a title
in fee TO the land. Small farmers are un-
known in the slave States, except in some
sterile spots-where living at all is a hardship
SO long as slavery exists in the South, the
richest and the nobest portion of the United
States is shut against the feet of the white la
borer. The most he can expect is to haze a
winters work on TIE eyee, or exhaust soul
and body on steamboat in some mental ca
pacity.
Solong as slavery exists in the South, the
white laborer will be treated worse than the
slave. He will be looked upon, as Hammond.
the South Carolina Senator, said, as mud
sill" thing to be trod on and scrape your
shoes on, and then left TO rot and cast aside
SO long as slavery exists in the South the
aristocratic or oppressive classes will rule
Manual labor of any kind will be treated with.
contempt. The children of the white Iaborer
will be taught by slavery to despse their par
entage. public opinion unknown or sup
pressed in the free, is all powerful in the slave
States, and by this 'the pride OF li.en is estab-
lished in the high places, and they who do not
bow down before the idol must seek home
elsewhere.

tory.
THE REBELS REPULsED.

THE REBELS REPULsED.
From the Morning Star.
Even the despondng may be reassured by
the firm and noble stand that has been made.
1t will invigorate the hearts and arms of the
North. 1t will more than check the temerity
of the Southern invaders. For them to have
failed in their aggression Is to have incurred a
far heavier disaster than defeat on their own
soil. They have struck once more, with ac-
cumulated force, at the sanctuary of American
freedom and once more they have been glo-
riously repnlsed.
NORTHERN GENERAI.smP.
From the Daily Ne,cs.
Gen. Meade has already fulfilled the high
opinion of his military knowledge and ability
his brother officers were said TO entertain, and
vindicated an appointment which at first
seemed, even in America, to have filed almost
every one with surprise.
GENERAL MEADE.
From the Manchester Gaardian.
There is special difficulty in using our past
experience of official bulletins to assist us in
estimating The true significance of the scanty
intelligence which we possess respecting this
eventful struggle. General Meade is new to
us in the chief command, and we have no
means OF knowing how far his notions of poll
Icy and propriety, in the preparation of docu-
ments intended for publication, coincide with
those Of some of his predecessors. Judging
from precedents afforded by the reports of
such men as Pope and Hooker, we should be
justified la expecting that the next mail would
bring us news of crushing Federal disaster.
Giving Gen. Meade, on the other hand, the
credit due to an untried man, of being fairly
modest, truthful and temperate, it may be in
ferred that he has succeeded beyond expecta-
ton IN bringing the triumphant career of the
Coniederates TO pause, and possibly in pro-
viding them with good reason TO rue their te-
merity.
