CHARACTERISTIC BREYITY.

President Grant, in accepting the unanimous
nomination Of the Republican party for second term,
expresses himself with characteristic breyty and clear
ncs- His letter these respects contrasts very favor
ably with the letters OF Messrs. Greeley ana Brown.
EMBoDIEs GRANTS AMBITION.
From The PfitSbVrgh Chronicle (1dm.l.

particularly reserved IN tie mutter OF making fine
promises lie So however pretty apt to adhere to such
pledgc as de makes and this aceenat his letter %

Under Paid Labor.

Under-paid labor always revenges itself
upon the employer in negligence and waste.
The man cares little for the interest Of the
master who cheapens the sweat Of his
brow to the lowest possible farthing, and
the work he does Is never performed with
either cheerfulness or alacrity. Getting
the greatest amount for the least outlay,
never yet paid in tine long run. You may
feed your horse upon thistles, and drive
him at the top Of his speed for time-but
for time only. With enough Of remun-
Grafton to make him defy the wolf at the
door to keep him in clothing and a chance
to lay up against a rainy day" one will
sing cheerily, while he labors faithfully
take an interest in what he does, and strive
to gain a still higher recompense by max
ing himself more useful. And there is
another strong point in the case. Poor
pay Is a great temptation to theft. You
have plenty and to spare-the one you
employ plenty Of nothing but poverty. 1t
is hard for him to reason that such a state
Of affairs is right-that you should ride in
coach, while he cannot spare sixpence
TO patronize a car after hours Of hard work
These contrasts are ever before him. He
sees lheHl ny uay, uredILs Oh theh Dy
night. and when the week or month is
ended the little pittance he receives is in
stantly swallowed up i'll keeping body and
soul together-in making and recruiting
strength to do your work. 1t is strange,
then. that so many should fail to keep the
straightforward path We opine not, and
the sooner there is more liberality ON the
mart Of employers, the sooner some
thing on cooperative system is inaugu-
rated, the sooner more better work will be
done, and honesty be the rule-not the ex-
ceptiun. -ErchdItJe.

South STAFFoRDsHIRE Miners.
threatened strike in the Staffordshire Coal
Trade has been averted for the present,
the men having accepted . compromise, de-
clarng, however, that they will not be sat
ished until their full demand has beer
granted.
THREATENED STRIKE OF CoLLIRRs-
Owing to the coal companies in the Alloa
district having added other q to the price
Of the ton of coal, the miners have resolv-
ed to demand an increase of 2s per week
on their present pay. The coal ia now
selling at the pit-head at lbs per ton, be-
ing q rise Of A Cd within the past few
months.
LASALLE, Sept 3-The strike Of che
coal miners of this city and of the Illinois
Valley and Kenosha mines still continues.
Colonel Taylor, President Of the Northern
Illinois Coal and Iron Company, whose
mines are situated in this city, has offered
to advance the miners wages from 80 cents
to 81. O5 a ton, but, as yet, there Is no
assurance that the offer will be accepted.
MEETING or THE LANCASHIRE GOLFERS.
On Monday, q meeting Of miners and
delegates of the Balton, Rochdale, and
Bury district was held at the Church
Hotel, HERSHEY, under the presidency of
| Of Mr.. j. Warrall Upward Of 1000
miners were represented. 7. Halli-
day, president Of the Amalgamated AssO-
citation, addressed the meeting upon the
wages and short time movement. he
stated that within the last month the
colliery proprietors had put an advance of
% cd per ton on coal, and he contended
that the miners had a right to fair share
Of that Extraordinarily, 80 per cent.
At Wigan and other places, it was said
the men were asking for an additional 81
per cent, which he could not but think
was a mistake "a Voice It's no mis-
take. } Well, then, he hoped they would
get it but the masters had decided not
to give any advance until after the FIRST
making-up day in October, and then il
was to be only 10 per cent. Wages hao
increased in Statfordshire and other part
of the country, but, notwithstanding this
he contended that the miners had not re
ceived an advance proportionate to the
profits Of the masters. With regard Il
the eight hours movement, he regretted
that the Clifton Colliery Company and tn
firm Of Messrs A. Knowles Il Sons wer'
not working short time but he was afraid
the men were as much to blame as tn
employers, and if they would not JOIN tn
union they must put up with what the.
had to contend with. A resolution wa
proposed and seconded that 10 per cent
more be demanded from the employers
but to this an amendment was moved tina
the masters should be requested to NEE
the men, and consult as to the dispropoI
ton in the wages paid TO the men and tn
advance put upon the price Of coal.-O
a division, the amendment was carried b
II against 6.

Skilled Va. Unskilled Labor.

A new view Of the vexed labor question
is suggested by the following paragraph
from the London Spectator:
One of the deepest, though least noticed.
divisions among workingmen, the chasm
between the skilled and the unskilled labor
ers, came out oddly at an open-air meeting
Of the bricklayers and others held on Sat
urday in Hyde Park. Mr.. Phillips, q
painter, had declared that the men must
have the Cd. an hour, because whatever
political economy might say, less then that
did not suffice for their natural wants. -
Whereupon Mr. Halloran, holman. pre-
sumably an Irishman, certainly humorist,
wanted to know what the laborers were Il
do with their sd. an hour. They had the
same stomachs as the mechanics, the SAME
wives, the same necessity for clothes, the
only difference between them being the
cost Of tools Clearly, if a man il to b,
paid according to his wants instead Of &C
cording to his work. Halloran is entitled
to as much as Phillips
And why not Is it because one maj
cannot produce as good piece Of work q
another, that he and his wife and it'll
ones are a. live on a scanty meal and b
deprived Of the common comforts of life
We hold that all men are entitled to liy
ing, and their wages or compensation
should be such as would enable them +
live. Skilled labor is entitled to more pa
than unskilled, but AS OHalloran says
the unskilled laborer has the same want
and the same necessities as his more fortu
nate brother Why should he not hav
the means Of supplying them.

TO the Painters Of America.

On our fourth page will be found the
address II the Painters Grand Lodge Of
the United States, and we commend it to
the careful consideration Of every member
of the craft We know Of no trade that
stands more in need Of wellknit thor
oughly organized association than the
painters. In many parts Of the union
they are working for a miserable pittance
The reason for this is very forcibly set
forth in the address which says % Be
cause you are divided, and your division
has made you the easy prey Of the avera-
cious sharpers, who plumber you Of your
rights and despise you for your ignorance. "
