HaekmeQ.

"a Louisville visitor to Cincinnati y
says the Gazette, thinks the charge Of
q Cincinnati hackman of three dollars
for carrying himself and lady, without
baggage, from the Burnett House to the
Louisville railroad depot, besides forty
cents bridge toll, exorbitant, and wants
to know if this city has no laws regulat-
ing hackmen's charges. We have laws
enough, but the hapkmen are q law unto
themselves. There Is no peroeptible
connection between them and the hack
mems charges, nor between these and
any reasonable price. No one takes a
hack unless compelled to. No hackman
expects to be employed by anybody
who has choice. He does not
expect 10 earn money by keeping hia
team employed. He sits ike q spider at
the side of the street all day, waiting for
some stranger in state of emergency /;
or half the night waiting for some fancy
business; and out of single job of an
hour or half an hour he makes his day 8
wages. The hacks Of this city might find
employment most of the time at reason
able rates, but they prefer the plncking
system. Their horses stand stamping
the flies most of the time, nuisance to
the street.. SO managed the hacks are in
no sense q public accommodation. and
have no ground for the privilege which
they take of occupying the street with q
nuisance"

will receive the cordial support of every

sense enough to realize that the world

LABOR CONVENTION.

The convention which assembled yes
terday, to consider the best means Of
procuring Chinese laborers, was largely
attended, and the proceedings, as far as
they went, were characterized by earn
estness and dispatch. The men who
came here--some of them hundreds of
miles-this hot weather, are in earnest,
and mean business. The people are
more thoroughly aroused on this subject
than was generally known. More than
half dozen States were well represen-
ted. and we believe that many OF the
delegates came prepared to order gangs
of Cinnamon to take back with them.
Everything depends upon what Mr..
Koopmanschaap is prepared to offer.
If the cost is reasonable, he can dispose
of ten thousand laborers to responsible
persons in less than week. The details
may be more complicated than has been
expected; but we hope that nothing will
long stand in the way of Chinese impor-
tatiop.
