The N. Y. World Is facetious upon the Lara
mie jury, where eleven women were drawn and
but one man. 1t deplores his wrlthing under the
desultory discussion of points of law and points
OF dress, Of matters of fashion, in which his
eleven colleagues, as Is the immemorial and in
consequential custom of their sex, inevitably
INDUCED themselves. There was NO male COM
panion Of his misery with whom he might take
sweet counsel, or deliberate, in the usual man
ner OF the Western jury, the issues raised by a
game Of seven up. Surely, it might, without
detriment to the cause of equal rights, be en-
acted that at least two men, or else none, might
serve on each jury for which women were i'm
pannelled. Otherwise the condition of the felon
in the dock viii be bliss compared to the con-
dition Of the lone male in the jury box.

Labor Movements.

How THE EIGHT-HOUR QUESTION sTANDs
w. j. Jessup, of New York, writer of the let
ter we publish below, Is the president of the
Workingmen's Assembly Of that State, ire
elected at their last meeting by acclamation,)
and IS also corresponding secretary of the A.
Dor Union of New York" These are separate
and distinct organizations. The Assembly is
the representative body OF trade associations of
society, and represent some fifty thousand yo-
tiers. The g" Labor Union" is State branch Of
the !" National Labor UniOn," and is composed
OF delegates from all labor associations in the
state 1t Is intended to form and sustain a ma
tlcnal labor party in such manner as time and
err Circumstances may require: 1t is believed by
New York.
The letter of Mr.. Jessup. to which we refer,
is directed to General A. NJ Winn. chairman of
the National Eight-hour Executive COMMITTEES
In this city. MIR. Jessup saws:
.'The dull state of trade now prevailing i'm this
city and elsewhere is severely felt by the work
ing classes, and is generally taken advantage of
fythe employers oflaboring men to reduce wages
or increase the hours of labOr-I suppose by Wsy
OF retaliation for what has been accomplished
by labor the few years past in ameliOratinR its
condition A determined effort is now being
made By the bOss mssons TO break down the
plasterers of New York and BROOKLYN. Those
trades seem determined to maintain their short
hours, even il they have to accept less wages
1t seems like fighting against fate, as the city is
ployment without reference to hours or wages
The Assembly agreed to a bill for an eight
hour law for New York. 1t has been re-
ferred in the Asse mby Of the Legislature and
the committee has reported favOrably. IL it
should be passed, our eight-hOur law will be
something more than '.a rope Of sand" Hav-
ing seen synopsis Of the speech of Senator
George W. Spencer, from Alabama, in answer
10 MI Morrill, of Vermont, on the eight-hour
question, wrote to Mr.. Spencer to acknowledge
our appreciation of his remarks, and to thank
him for the good words uttered in favor of our
cause. That brought from him q package of
his speech, which 1 received YESTERDAY, and
shall take great pleasure i'm distributing them
.mong the representatives. OF the trades i
tlink 1t would be well for the Presidents of the
yuious State organizations of labor to pursue
tie same course. When we find members of
Congress with the maniiness to speak out in
favor Of the cause Of labor, we should be ever
ready and willing to show our appreciation and
acknowledge the effort By 10 doing we will
give them courage to press onward. Such is
my purpose and Intentions.

The question has arisen. and is, ing discuss

The question has arisen, and lei ling discussed
pretty freely in various quarters, whether the
deplorable calamity which befel the corvette
Oneida would have occurred but for the order
OF the Navy Department which requires its
steamers to dispense with steam and depend on
their sails, except in time of storm or action 1t
viii be remembered that all accounts of the
accident mention the fact that con passing out
the harbor her fires were banked and the steam
blown on" and the argument is, that but for
this circumstance the Oneida would no. have
been in the helpless condition in which she was
found when the immense Bombay was seen
coming directly upon her. In making a voyage
like that from Japan to this country, the item
OF time might not count even against the cost of
the fuel required to make her run; but if the
loss OF the vessel and the fearful destruction of
human life can be attributed even in q reasona-
bic degree 10 the existence of the order i'm ques-
ton, il would be well to revoke it without wait
ing for any other reason.

Cadet Absent.

From the n. Y. Commercial Advertiser.
1t is reported that at the closing hop
of the West Point cadets last evening the
eolored ''pleb, did not put in an appear
ance. Can it be that more tyranny has
been exercised at that aristocratic insti-
tuition ? Was this son of poor but Afri-
can parents purposely excluded from the
scene of festivities? Did the great Amer
can doctrine of social equality suffer an
other stab in the back last night? Are
we understand that the national brunette
has no ballroom rights that white men
are bound TO respect? Were such men
as President Grant, Superintendent
Pitcher, Generals Porter, Emory and
Parker, Senator Ames, ct al, silent spec
tators of this arbitrary exclusion Did it
not occur to President Grant and the rest
of them, surrounded as they were by their
wives and daughters, that this would have
been glorious opportunity to formally
introduce the 'fshady element" Of our
civilization and stamp it with the approx
al of authority? What more magnificent
spectacle could the world have witnessed
than the hero of Appomattox presenting
to that brilliant assembly an embryo
TOussaint in gray cut away coat and
brass buttons, and soliciting for his part
ner in the dance, one of the lovely dalght-
ers of Secretary Fish or the charming
bride of the blonde Senator from Missis-
sippi? Assuredly such an act would have
given color to the belief that we all cneer-
fully accept the great social revolution
which war has entailed, and are prepared
to confirm it by our acts. 1t was cruel
