WmrE NrN OUT OF WoEK.-Thc New York Eyoos >ay- "Thou.ands of white men, at the present time, are wandering about without employment, in every one of the States. They are anxious for work, but can not get it to do. The favored ones who have regular occupations, find, that with the ruling high prices of rents, provision, and clothing to pay, they can hardly make both ends meet As to providing against sickness, or other unforeseen misfortune, that is ont of the question One of the burthens, in the shape of millions, they have to bear, is the Freedmons Bureau; another is the standing military establishment provided to carry Radical elections in the South.
