A coLoRED PRINTER. Not a little
las been said throughout the nation in
regard to the action of the Printers I'm
ion in excluding from the order colorcd
man. The following from the Madison
Journal expresses our idea of the mat
ter precisely: "a son of Fred. Douglass
has been employed in the Government
printing office at Washington, and the
typos of that city have been very much
exercised thereat. They claim that their
objection does not rest upon the fact that
he is colored person, but is based upon
the fact that he does not belong to the
regular organized Printers Union. When
it is understood that Mr.. Douglass made
his application to become member of the
Union, and was refused on account Of
his color, this claim does not appear con-
sistent
Mr.. Douglass is said to be young man
of excellent education, refined in all his
habits and tastes, and withal, superior
printer. We by no means believe that
,he fact of his race should secure him
employment; neither ought it to debar
him from serving, as mechanic, a Gov
ernmeat which proclaims itself the cham
pion Of equal rights and exact justice for
men. If black has equal capacity,
equal moral qualifications and equal ex-
perience with white in any business,
the fact that his cuticle is a shade or two
darker, should not operate to exclude
him from the use of his faculties and abil-
tiles, or remand him to an inferior posi-
ton. which is the just penalty of voluu-
tary ignorance or vice. 1t is one of the
lessons we have learned in the tremend-
Gus s.ruggles of the past few years, that
every man should be free to employ his
gifts 70 the best possible advantage We
fear these Washington printers are too
much animated by the spirit of cligarchy
ana caste, which for generations kept a
suffering rase in the condition of brute
chattels, and arrogantly denied them
Fsishts that belong to our eopuop rx.

THE EIGHT HOUR LAW.
EXHIBITORS.

President Grant has issued an impor.
tant order which will interest all the
working people OF the United States.
After a deliberate examination and ad-
vising with the Cabinet, he has come to
the conclusion that the law of Congress
demands that eight hours shall be a day 5
labor on all the public works of the Uni
ted States. and that no man wages
shall be reduced in consequence of the re-
duction of the time. OF course, in max
ing new contracts for labor, the govern
ment can properly refuse to pay as much
Is 1t has heretofore, but no man wages
are TO be reduced on the ground that he
does not work but eight hours.
1t Is now the national law, and will be
the cause of the profouhdest rejoicing on
the part of that class who hold that eight
hours of diligent labor is sufficient for a
days work, and that a good workman
viii accomplish, by increased diligence,
IN that time. as much as he did IN the
previous ten hours. Such has been
found to be the result in the .SprmcGel,
-1rn,oiy; and we believe that it will be
so elsewhere, if the workmen obey the
rule IN its power spirit-thac is, give close
attention to thsiS work.

stated to have been $500 men, under
Quesada, intrenched on the road, az d
the Spanish numbered about the same.
The fighting was by far the severest
which has taken place during the war.
The battle was decided by the arrival of
the Marquis Of San Luco, with 1000 men,
many OF whom were mounted, but who,
though very poorly armed, made des-
perate and successful charge upon the
flank of the Spaniards OF the 500 col

officers and vent over to the Cubans.
The remainder are neither with the insur-
