Mr.. Greeley on the Duty of Repub-
hcan Young Men.

A correspondent having propounded to the
editor Of the New York Tribune the question :
What are the Republican young men of the
country to do in the present state of affairs
that is, how they should vote in the Presden-
tial contest that journal answers at length.
Among other things, it says that the Repub-
lican party has accomplished its original OBJ
" ject, with very much more" and "will soon
." be transformed or disntegrated by reason Of
"its complete, conclusive successes" 1t adds:
"A party with this name may outlast the cen
'tury, but it must contemplate other objects
"and work to other ends than those which
united and animated the Republicans, Of
"1S56-CO" We subjoin the conclusion Of the
article;
Your present duty, young men, is to read,
observe and think, The party-cries daily
raised Of" Keep the flag flying !" Stick "to
the party" No breaking ranks! !" &C.. &C.,
appeal rather to mems passions than their rea
son. They are mainly impelled by those who
expect to retain their present Offices or achieve
OStttI tHIouSu Tue Pdlty V'S'uIGi'I"u' I"o
party called Republican may be the best in
existence, and it may be your duty to sustain
it but it is so, if at all, for different reasons
from those which called that party into being.
A good many Of those now most Jealous for
maintaining the Republican organization are
building tombs of prophets whom they stoned
not many years ago.
Ifthe Democratic party, untaught by dsas-
ter should insist on fighting over again the
struggles of 1860, 1864 1868, of course the
Republicans must stand to their arms and fall
into line But Of this there is no more pros
pect than Of refghting the battle Of Bunker
Hill.
And if the Democrats should not insist on
perpetrating such folly, it seems clear that
the country should now advance to the consid
Grafton Of other problems than those present
cd by slavery and the war. Free Trade vs..
Protection Universal Amnesty; the One
Term principle the subordination Of Military
to Civil authority Retrenchment Of Public Ez
pendtures; better safeguards against defalca-
ton and peculation-thesc and other such
should now have their turn.

Capital and Labor.

Henry Ward Boecher replies to an inquiryre-
spectng the duty due to capital ndlabor, and
whether or not they are bound to respect each
others rights, in New York Ledger, in the fol-
lowing sensible manner:
"Meu talk of capital and labor as if they
were two essentially different things. They
are in fact essentially one. If a man builds a
factory, puts in machinery, buys raw material,
puts in workmen, he is said to have invested
his capital. The whole establishment is capi-
tai. If it pays the expense of running. inclu-
ding materials, wear and tear and wages, and
then something over and above, that surplus is
called earnings. 1t is regarded as fresh capi-
tai.
"A day laborer who saves three dollars
week is a capitalist. II he puts his savings
into horse and dray, or into chest Of tools, or
into a candy shop, lie reinvests, and his capital
is, primarily, his own productive fOrco-that
is, himself; and sccOndarily these new means
Of carrying on business. Every step by which
he arises from poverty to competence is in the
direction of augmcntal capital
every prosperous workman Isl proof to
himself that there is no need of conflict be-
tween labor and capital.
Payment to laborng meu should be at
slogt intervals, especially when men have fami
lies dependant upon them. 1t is better to pay
in money than goods or orders. The tempta-
ton to make double profit on inferior goods
leads selfish men to take advantage Of their
. hands
"Altho1gh payment by order may secure
better goods sometimes than the men would
buy for cash, yet, on the other hand it leads to
carlessness aud shiftless management in the
family. 1t is the interest of every employer
that his men should be intelligent, thrifty, and
good managers in the household. 1t is his
interest, even if he works by no higher princi
pie, to deal Justly, promptly, and literally with
his workingmen."

COLLECTOR RUSSELL EXPLAINS.

We see by the newspapers that Judge Thomas
Russell, Collector of the port of Boston, has
thought it necessary to write and TO print
pamphlet explaining Gen. Henry Wilson's con-
nection with the old Know-Nothing party.
We have not yet seer this production, nor is
it perhaps important that we should see 1t
before speaking of it, since we know well
enough what Judge Russell will say 1t VIII
at least lack the charm of novelty. There
were 81 ,02 citizens of Massachusetts, who
called Gen. Wilson Know-Nothing brother
A considerable portion of these are still living
and voting; and it is not probable that Judge
Russells pamphlet is intended for their edit
cation. There are three ways, and three only
of accounting for the Generals X. N escapade.
/. He BELIEVED in refusing the Right Oh
Suffrage to foreign-born citizens.
2. He did not believe in refusing the Right
of Suffrage to foreign born citizens, but only
said that he did.
8. If he did not believe in refusing the Right
of Suffrage to foreign-bOrn citizens, he must
have had an object in view in saying that ne
did.
4. He was elected to the Senate Immediately
after the great Know-NOthing triumph, and
by Know-Ndhing votes.
Here are the facts. Now there are men
of whom it has been said that they could
argue the brass knOcker off n front door.
Judge Russell may be one of these gifted
locicians and he may make out an excellent
case for his friend. We will take it for
granted that he has done so, and that Gen.
Wilson, in the pamphlet, stands perfect viz
gin $50 to speak of political purity. A great
many people who want to vote for him will
declare that they are Thoroughly convinced that
Gen. Wilson's only motive in becoming a
Know-Nothing was to help along the anti
Slavery cause, then much impeded by the
Wing party. Yet not one man in ten. in Mas
sachusetts or out of it, who says this will
believe what he says, Notwithstanding he may
make the most desperate efforts to believe
it. 1t may be that Judge Russell thinks that
the course of his friend was perfectly dsinter-
ested and simply patriotic, flor Judge Russell
is an amiable man and likes to believe all
manner of good of his fellow creatures. We
will 90 further. 1t is possible that Gen. Will
son now thinks that he then thought himself
possessed by the love of liberty alone, and
willing Ito use his own words) "to serve as a
private in the gathering ranks of freedom
But no did Mt serve as q private. and our
opinion is that no did MT expect to. We sup

thus settled after elaboration aid ccnsultation
among employers and employees. The impulse
with the little band of co0perators was sell
Interestingly did not like to surrender their
share of the profits of the manufacture. This
lump leayened the whole loaf. Their expert
ence furnished them with strong arguments;
and these were not lost upon their associates
and in the end the whole trade was induced
to return to work on terms satisfactory 10
both sides.
we have always held that Cooperation is the
true preventive of strikes. No man VIII strike
against himself or against his own interest.
When a man is once his own employer the
wages and the hours of work become lost IN
consideration of the profits of the manufacture.
Il seems strange that so simple and true q
solution of so complex and vexatlous a prop
lem should be lost upon those who insist on
the antagonism of Capital and Labor which
under the system of Cooperation cannot con-
fict. 1t is probably to be accounted for only
by the fact that there are very few human
beings who are really fitted to be masters. IL
is clear enough to those who have the patience
to save and the discretion to invest, and
the industry to combine savings and la
Dor; for only those who aspire TO Dc
something more than employees ever succeed
at Cooperation. The greater multitude waste
and the chief source of the waste is in such
wars as that of which the present strike is
fair illustration. The immense sums spent and
lost in this strike would have set afoot scores
of Cooperative schemes in each trade, which
with a little discretion and experience and
ordinary industry could have been made sue
cessfnl This is a moral of the strike which
ought not to be lost on the strikers Yet We
fear, though we draw it, that 1t Will be-
