WORK AND WEALTH.
LECTURE BY THOMAS HUGHES.

Mr.. CHAIRMAN AND My FRIENDS Il
am afraid that the title of this address may
have misled, more or less, some of those
who are here this evening, and may have
hindered others from coming. The words,
.'Work and Wealth" are apt to rouse very
different trains OF thought in mems minds,
but to most of us they suggest at once that
science which has been, most unfairly,
called the dismal science, and which has
for its aim to teach the laws by which the
production and consumption of wealth are
governed. Let me at once relieve your
minds then by stating that | am not about
to give you lecture on political economy,
in the ordinary sense of the term Were
| competent to the task, it is one which |
should shrink from attempting before a
general audience, whom | am addressing
for the first time tonight, and to whom
may never speak again. You will not
have to endure any discussion as to the
right principles of taxation, currency, eX-
change, the balance OF trade. or any of the
other deeply interesting and important
subjects which the economist has to deal
with. / hope even to avoid the great con-
troversy between Protection and Free
Trade, which every one must see is likely
to occupy q large share of the attention of
your people before long. My object is of
less ambitious kind. | propose, and
hope to approach my subject from its hui
man rather than from its economic side;
to give you history rather than discussion.
OF course, that history will be English !;
but in this matter the experience of Eng
land should be of great value to all other
nations, and above all to you, who among
the first-class powers of the earth, are the
only one blessed, as she is, without those
free institutions which leave the people to
settle economical and social questions for
themselves, without the intervention of
bayonets. | shall endeayor then to give
YOU the broad outlines of the great labor
movement in England during the time
now reaching near quarter OF II century,
that have been intimately acquainted with
it. In one sense. at least, | have no fear
of not obtaining your sympathy. In no
other country in the world is the belief in
the future--in the certain progress of our
race toward better state OF things, here,
on this much abused and patient old earth
on which we find ourselves--so strong, so
undoubting, as III these United States.
You have no Saturian age, decked out by
the imagination OF poets, to look back
upon and sigh for; and you have no wish
for any such. as far as have been able to
discover. The key note of your highest
inspiration has been hope, and faith in man
and his destiny. "Let the dead past bury
its dead,n and cone hther and work in the
living present, all you who can find neither
room nor work elsewhere-that take to
be your psalm of life to the poor of all
nations-and they are answering, and
focking in, of all creeds, and races, and
| colors

THE EARLIEST STRIKES.

'Men my brothers, men the workers work,
ing something new,
The things they have done but earnest of the
things which they shall do"
Well, then, you whose golden age lies
right in front, will, | am sure, rejoice in
any evidence even from the old world,
that confirms your own faith in the future,
and | know of nothing in history more
cheering in itself, or more calculated to
confirm faint hearts ahd strengthen feeble
knees, than the advance in prosperity and
wisdom of the working class in my own
country since can remember them. The
great problem of our time, how those who
| live by the sweat of their brow, and who
must always form the vast majority of
every human society, can be put in their
right place, under conditions of life which
| Christian civilization need not be ashamed
of, without injustice to the rest of the
great brotherhood, has no longer much
terror for US at home. How far we have
succeeded in solving it hope to show
YOU, so far as it can be done in the course
J of an hour; and | shall be indeed rejoiced
if, on the eve of my departure from your
country, in which have seen and learned
so much, and have received such eXtraor-
binary kindness, | can tell your people
anything which may render their path
along the same road somewhat less peril
Gus and stormy than ours has been.
For in England the war between labor
and capital has lasted with occasional lulls
for upward of 500 years, Far back in
those dim old Plantagenet times we find
| the traces of that war on the statute book,
and in the pages of the chroniclers. The
statute OF laborers and other acts endeav-
ored to fix the rate of wages, and the con
ditions under which handicrattsmen should
be allowed to dispose of their labor. After
the black death had devastated the
Southern and Eastern Counties the most
stringent laws were passed in the hope OF
checking the rise in wages which that
fearful calamity had caused-Scarcely
more than one smith or carpenter III tour
was left in some of the tairest and most
populous of English districts; but king
and baron and bishop and merchant
could see no reason why they should have
to paw more for the skill of one survivor.
The first great strike OF which we have
any record, so far AS | know, took place
among the masons and other artifcerS
employed in building Windsor Castle
under William of Wickham. They lcf
their work, and scattered over the neigh
boring counties but the sheritfs of Berks
Bucks, and Surrey soon brought then
back in obedience to the peremptory man
date of King Edward, and savage punish
ments Gin one instance, at least, if right

sighted selfishness. But not until on
