WHERE Is MCMAHON!

We are told that great uneaslness ex-
lists at Washington as to the. wherea-
bouts of Minister McMahon, Mr.. Charles
Wnsbhrrne's successor as Minister to
Paraguay. A letter C pcecall has been
sent to him, but he neither responds nor
comes back. Fears have been expressed
that Lopez, the bloodthirsty and recA-
less bushwhasker who scared Wash
hurne into taking French leave, has
dealt forlly with. him Itmay he, low
ever, that MgNahoc RENE pbe-s the part

appointed by President Tyler special

Polk sought TO. recall him, he could not
be found but avoided the service oil

If should find any, and confirming friendships
VIII readily be believed Notwithstanding q oeF.
tain portion of the w0rkingmen of London
have thought il proper and within their prov
ince to endesvor to inaict what they designed
to be q slight upon me. / say portion Of the
workingmen of this city, for l have no reason
to believe that am not held in kind regard by
that class Of EDglishEsen here and elsswhere.
So far from having any such reason, the re-
ceptions which have met with in Sheffeld,
Leeds, Worcester, Liverpool, Brighton. Birm.
ingham, and in London also, have been such as
10 satisfy me that stand well with all classes
OF her Majestys subjects. And ] therefore,
submit with resignation to any adverse opinion
which may be entertained by any part of aey
class within the limits of this city.
Ny information is that these are few. What
influence has been brought TO bear upon them
do not know. Ii is possible that some busy
body for Interested ends on his own, may be at
the bottom of it; or that such persons may even
desire, for some political end, thai amicable re-
lations between this country and my own shall
not be established.
THAT am justly subject to- cehsure in regard
to nv conduct towards Messrs Roebuck and
Laird will not be believed by any portion u the
unprecedented and intelligent people Of the Uni
ted States, who have witnessed--not only with
out blame, but with pleasure--the course pur-
sued by all the distinguished officers Of the
United States, including Gens Sherman aud
Grant, 4 d the officers lately in the cOnfed
crate service.
These latter had sought to destroy the Gov
eminent to which they owed allegiance, and
thereby committed the highest Of all political
offences and yet, from the moment the late
war terminated, they were taken by the hand
BY our generals, and their former friendly relsr
tions were at once sincerely resumed. Gen.
Grant, whose devotion to his country no one
doubts, has had in his house In Washington as
guest one of the most distinguished Of the
confederate leaders. u Ell
If conduct like this is not only not censur-
ed, but approved, upon what grounds can ID
even be deeently held that should be censur-
ed for my course towards Messrs Roebuck and
Laird, who owed no allegiance whatever " the
United Ststesg ~

Labor Reform in New England.

The abolition Of chattel slavery being >
eomplished fact; and the demand for impartias
suffrage, to all classes, irrespective Of race, sex
or past condition, advancing irresistibly to gen
eral Acceptance the American people are now
Intercepted by an issue, which, more than any
other, perhaps more than all others, involves, in
its solution, the welfare and destiny of human
seciety-the labor question. While few deny
the abstract proposition that labor is entitled to
its earnings; and, az the creator Of all values
equitably vendsSle, should override and deter
mine tie minor claims of property, rent, ex-
change, money, interest," and taxation the rule
Of right is yet so far nulifed IN practice, that
even In our most civilized States the laboring
classes are the poorer classes wealth centralizes
into the hands of few, woman il held in
wretched pecuniary servitude, poverty and
crime are decreed to be necessary evils" and
government, the pulpit, the press, literature, po-
litical scierce, all the great organs of public
opinion, acquiesce in the prevailing injustice.
Believing, on the contrary, that the charges
which working women and men bring against
society are maialy well founded that the arts
tocracy of mere wealth, the industrial feudalis1,
now authorized and enforced by Our laws and
customs, is fraudulent usurpation, subversive of
free institutions, and hostile to the best inter-
ests Of the whole People--we invite all friends
