How the Poor arc Robbed.

Some three months ago. gold was down
to I25, and we seemed fairly on the way
to sound currency. But it is now up
ward Of IA, with the prospect of still
further rise It is by taking advantage
Of such fluctuations IN the value of mon
ey, the sharpers and spectators acquire
sudden riches; and every dollar that they
make. comes out Of the earnings of labor
Let US illustrate the operation Of our un-
stable currency by simple example, in
tellieible TO every laborlng man. Ii, three
months ago. when gold was 125, frugal
aborer had put 500 in saving bank,
the interest at 5 per cent, the usual rate
Of such institutions, would be one dollar
and twenty-five cents. The principal,
when he lent it. was worth so IN gold;
and now. when it has been on interest
three months, the principal and interest
together amount to less than S71 in gold,
making dead loss Of So in gold or s13
in our present currency. 1t is in this
way that the people are robbed Of the
fruits Of their labor.
Daniel Webster, more than thirty years
ago, described with his habitual yigor of
statement. the operation Of an inAahed,
fuctuating currency. What he understood
50 clearly from history and philosophy,
We unhappily knew from observation and
bitter experience. We commend his inn
pressIye language to the earnest attention
of the industrious classes We ask them
to mark. as from their own knowledge
they can, the truth Of Its representations.
Mr.. Webster said
The very man. q al esAers, Mhe has
and who suffers most By TnischieYous leg
islation in money matters, is the man who
earns his daily bread by his dailytoil. A
deprecated currency changes the prices,
paper money falling between morning and
noon, and falling still lower between noon
and night. these things constitute the
very harvest time of spectators, and of
the whole race Of those who are at once
idle and crafty; and Of that other race,
too, the Catalines, Of all times. marked,
so as 10 be known forever by one stroke
of the historians pen, men greedy of
other men 5 property aud prodigal of their
own. Capitalists mayoutliye such times.
They may either prey on the earnings of
labor by their cent. per cent, or they may
hoard But the laboring man-what can
he hoard Preying on nobody, he be-
comes the prey of all His property is in
his hands. His reliance, his productive
freehold, his all, is his labor. Whether
he work on his small capital or another's,
his living is still earned by his industry;
and when the money of the country be-
comes deprecated and debased, whether
it be aduiterated coin, or paper without
credit, that industry is robbed of its re-
ward He then fobors for acoantry chose
ta,os cheat him oatt Of his bread.
