THE AGITATION AMONG THE WORKINGMEN.-
The workingmen of New York are celebrated
for their regard for law and order. They rare
the ordinary course Of business, unless they
have serious grievances to complain Of As
class, they repudiate party leaders. and keep
as clear as possible from all party affiliations in
matters relating to trades, particularly in the
matter Of compensation for labor. Therefore
they command the respect of the community,
and enjoy corresponding degree of influence.
The agitation now existing among the work
ingmen Of New York has been created by an
ill-timed, unwise and unnecessary piece of
legislation in Albany. The attempt to legislate
upon the subject of compensation for labor is
absurd and can only end in mischief The
workingman is entitled to receive whatever
value he may justly set upon his labor, and
the employer can hire him or not, as he deems
best for bis interest. The present movsm ent
is strong one, and the fact that it is right
gives it strength. The workingmen only want
their rights, and we are much mistaken If they
do not succeed in obtaining them. The bill
before the Legislature, it seems to us, is sort
of government contractors job, a shoddy plot
to wiring out Of the workingmen what the
shoddyites fail to steal from the government
and it should be denounced and defeated.
The workingmen are earnest in this movement
and, although advised by bad men to resort to
violent measures to secure their object, we are
glad to observe that they prefer the better
course, and that is by presenting q digni6ed
and manly remonstrance to the proposed ILL
advised and i'll timed legislation at Albany.

a decreasing devotion to patriotic aims
with a waning regard for the Government

to be hot-beds of disloyalty, of treason

somehow, with the fell designs of the great
conspirators hailing from the cotton States,
the Shareholders Of the counties referred
