In New York city, it is said, there
arc more unemployed workingmen than
there have been within the last ten
years. A majority of the cities and
large towns OF the country seem to be in
the same condition. or course the
main cause of the trouble is directly
traceable to the unsettled state OF the
finances. We have an immense public
debt; a giasping and monopolizing
Bank interest; fuctuating and uncer-
'tain currency, liable at any moment to
succumb to the assaults of those who
hold the Government bonds, and a
widespread distrust in financial syss
TEN which is based entirely on psper.-
These causes have greatly retarded
trade aud closed many manufactures.
Another prolific cause of stagnation
lie to be found in the acts of recon.
struction." By those acts every indus
<uial interest of ten of the States has
BEEN broken up or destroyed. Over all
shat vast, rich region there is scarcely
an attempt at cultivation of the soil, in
consequence of those iniquitous partisan
measures. Instead of millions of bales
Of cotton, hogsheads of sugar, tobacco,
&c, which should give employment to
thousands of working people in spinning
AMI weaving in refining, pressing,
boxing, and preparing for market, but
few hundreds Or thousands are pros
duccd in those States. Thus a large
member of Northern laborers are com.
pcEcd to remain unemployed. Nor.
thcrn foundries, machine shops, and
manufactures of all sorts of goods
war 3 and machiner are compelled tc
close up because there is no business al
the South to enable the people there tC
make money and prepare market fol
Northern productions. Hence others o,
our mechanics and laborers are thrown
out of work-wages are brought dowr-
the price of bread goes up and genera
distress amongst the working classes en-
sues.
To that condition Of things the coun'
try is rapidly vcrging. To balance the
account We are to have the perpetla
supremacy Of the Radical party, secured
through negro suffrage, and perhap
mild con6scation " to gil the pocket
of political thieves. Are the people
prepared for this ? Are they willing
to put the Stcvenses, Kcllcys, Wilson
aud Beast Buffers as perpetual mort
gage upon the prosperity of the coun
try If not let them put down tn
Itadical demagogues who are rushing
the Government to certain destruction

A Sumter "Reminiscences.

A Charleston letter says One of the
deck hands of our steamer had been a
rebel soldier, and had been participant
in the defense of Sumter. Speaking of
the bombardment of the fleet as VIC pass.
ed it, he said, "The Yankees never
came so near taking it as they did on
the first or second day of the attack
he thought it was the 30th of August,
1868. He remembered very well when
one of the Yankee shells went right in
to the ammunition room of the fcrt and
exploded. The room was full of shells
add it was the greatest wonder in the
world the whole thing wasn't blown up
There were one hundred aud thirteen
thousand pounds of powder in the for
that day, and the garrison expected ev
cry moment to see it set on fire by {
Yankee shell. But the fleet drew of
early that day, and gave us chance
to fix up. We sent most of the powder
to Charleston that night and when thC
feet renewed the attack two or three
days after, We were better prepared thar
even for them, and We gave them tho
best we had" There is not a gun Wis
iblc upon Sumter.

Senators thought it was clearly con-

tior or slave property taken from
Il ~ as Kentucky occupied a differ

did. The resolution was adopted.

A resolution was adopted direct
ing the Auditor to report the number
and assessed value Of the slaves in
each county in this State in 1861
By this the people will see how the
Democratic party will reduce their
taxes should it come into power. The

EVANSVILLE JoURNAL.-We had
the pleasure ofaa call, last week, from
+. NJ. Thayer, Esq, one of the editors
and proprietors Of the Evansville
JOURNAL, Indiana, a paper of su-
perior ability, and OF large circulation
In the Southern part of Indiana. The
JOURNAL of November 28th comes to
Us with an engraved sketch of the
new building just erected for its own
use. 1t is a four-story brick. with
stone front. and large, well lighted
basement. The entire length of the
building is $50 feet. The basement
ls used for heavy print paper, of
which a good stock is kept constantly
on hand for supplying other
papers and consumers. The first
story, front, is used as a stationery
and counting room; Immediately in
the rear Of the cOunting-room is the
malllng-rOom; Immediately in the
rear OF the mailing room, and connect
ed with 1t by an open archway, is the
press-room, and in the rear Of that is
the engine and boiler-room. A stair
way leads from the recess in front to
the second story, which contains the
editorial and job-rooms. The sane
tum fronts on Locust Street, and is a
large, well-lighted and comfortable
room. In the rear of this Is the re-
porter and local editor room, which
it is necessary to pass through to get
to the editors room. At the head OF
this front stairway a door opens into
the job-room, which is IS feet deep,
and well supplied with all the
presses, type, fixtures, &c, usu-
ally found in well -arra nged and
wellmanaged job printing establish
ment. In job printing the JOURNAL
takes second place, 10 the character
and quality Of its work, to no estab-
lishment in the West. The third
story Of the building is occupied by a
frst-class bindery, and a room for
book and pamphlet work. The
bindery IS well arranged and fitted
up with the best material for doing
all grades of work. The fourth story
is occupied by the news-room, is large
and airy, and splendidly lighted. In
the basement story is a well, from
which water Is taken and forced into
different parts of the house by a
steam pump, thus rendering destruc-
tion of the Office by fire almost an
impossibility.- Western Christtun Id
