To pirate of country thought, soul
Bless those who fill your pauper bags,
Pray God to strengthen their control.

Your life would back the poor mans cause!

And DER your creed-"God and the right"

And when you led them to the fight
More strong their faith in Gospel light, pray!

You've seen the peasants mud built walls
Fall down before the landlords nod;
You've seen fat cattle in his stalls

Bear freghts of heart-crushed men away;

Thus it will be seen that C0pperhead
legislators, including all their leading re-
preventative men, acting on Sharswood
doctrine, strongly opposed a measure
which HAS SAVED THE COMMONWEALTH
ALREADY OVER 81, 100000, and that that
measure was only carried and became
Jaw by the active and earnest efforts Of
Republican Legislators.
This is a very different case from the
national bonds. The latter were issued
during the war, with the inducements Of
gold interest and free from taxation.-
Northern copperheads, who were giving
aid and comfort To the rebels, said they
were worthless, but Union men took them.
and while helping the government made

Inconsistency OF Democracy.

One week the copperhead papers de-
nounce republicans for not taxing national
bondholders, although these bonds were
Issued with the express contract that they
were not to be taxed, and then turn around
and cry out against the same party in a
case where all were put upon the same
footing and where the act was fully JUS
tiiiahte. Pennsylvania it will be remem-
bered, formerly paid the interest on its
bonds in coin, but as gold became a spec
ulatiOu the Legislature wisely determined
that as taxes were collected in currency
1t would not be right to buy coin at
heavy expense for the purpose of paying
more Interest than the law contemplated
That party might have competed every
farmer, merchant, merchanic and work
ing man to have paid their taxes in coin.
and thus favored those who held the bonds.
but this was deemed wrong to the people.
and in 1864 bill was reported authoriz-
ing the State authorities thereafter to pay
interest in currency, just as every body
else does.
The Harrisburg Telegraph, in calling
attention to this subject, says that while
every Republican in both Houses voted
for the bill, every Democrat, except Sena-
tor Linsey, opposed it. We give theyeas

The Democrat on Foreigners.

The Democrat of last week is again
down on foreigners for coming to this
country seeking labor. In speaking of a
recent occurrence at Pittsburg that pa
1 per says:
/ "A notable evidence of this fact is just
now 10 be seen in the goings-on in the
citv of Pittsburg. The Tr2deo' Union, an
association of w0rkingmeu in that city,
owing to the inadequate wages paid by
+ the large iron factories, adopted new
+ scale of prices, slightly increased above
! the old but the iron-masters refused TO
comply with this reasonable demand,
notwithstanding a very high taild at
present amply protects the iron interest.
( The workmen accordingly refused 10
work. and for time some OF the mills
stood still. And What did the iron mas
ters do then? Why, they formed a league
amongst themselves, raised fund, ana
I IMPORTED FOREIGN LABoRERS, who were
used to !ozr tru1eS, aud could be got Ia
work at the old prices. Some Of these in
ported IajorerS actually arrived several
weeks ago, and are now at work in that
city,"
( We do not see what the above has 10 do
with protection. The price Of labor is ;r
contract between employer and employees,
and if they cannot agree there is no law
compelling the one 70 furnish capital or
the other labor In the PitJsburg case
the Democrat talks quite kRowingLy about
ihe wages paid, which il says are made
quate Where did il get its information.
We have reasons for knowing that many
members Of this Trades Union III tho
works which had stopped operations on
account of n demand for Increased wages.
were earning from FIVE to SEVEN dollars
per day, and yet were not satisfied. An
advance on this the Democrat calls q
'' reasonable demand" Italso rinds fault
with the employers for forming a league.
and Yet justities The other.
Trades Unions or associations Of work
.ngmen are well enough, but designing
>uaves TOO often get contro! of and ust
them 70 their own advantage. This Pitts
burg association, which the Democrat de
lends, IS notorious for its Interference
with well-to-do operatives throughout the
state, and has already caused many thriv-
ing laboreTs 10 lose good situations and
