BUSINESS NOTES.

The nail and iron manufacturers doing
business in New England have decided to cut
down the wages of their employees ten per
cent, the reduction to commence the first of
December.
The managers of the Washington Mills at
Lawrence have decided to reduce the wages of
all employees 20 per cent.
The Boston Advertiser of Monday says
REPORTS from the manufacturing sections of
the country, particularly from New England
places, begin to be Of more cheering tenor.
rms morning there is news of the res sumption
OF business in several instances and of the
running of manufactures on increased time.
and the exaggerated character of many state
ments that have appeared is daily becoming
more apparent. II is too often forgotten that
1t Is now "between seasons" and that the
partial suspension of industries that have been
reported were very often the result of their
natural condition at this season, and not at all
induced by the ''panic."
The Worcester Spy Of Saturday makes a
full, and on the whole very cheerful state
nient Of the condition of business ia that city
1t says tia, while the manufacturing Interests
OF the place are affected, the s;rset reports
have been generally exaggerated. Concerning
the boot and shoe business it says that it il
about time for the manufacturers to suspend
operations preparatory to the opening Of tie
spring trade, but this year they have reduced
help earlier than usual.

"TRE1SON REVIFED."

Those who arc disposed to regard the
mission of the republican party ended,
should take notice of the recent letter of
Mr.. Hunter of Virginia. Mr.. Hunter will
undoubtedly be elected to succeed Mr..
Lewis in the United States Senate, and
what kind of measures he will advocate
there may be inferred from the letter of
which we have spoken. In it he adyo-
Gates a loan of 800, 900 to the late
slaveholding States without interest,
to be recalled ut the pleasure OF
the United States, this amount to be loaned
by the States to the late Shareholders, tc
be used as a compensation for the loss Of
their property.
What gives the letter more importanc,
is the manner in which it is mentioned by
the Richmond press. The Wing publish
es it and remarks:
We give place to a letter from the Hon. r
NJ. L. Hunter, explanatory of his recent ad-
dress before the Shenandoah Valley Agricul
tural Society in Winchester, in which lie dis
cussed the claim of the STAKEHOLDER to some
compensation for the loss of property secured
to him by the Constitution of the United
States, and wrested from him by the strong
arm of the military power in defiance of that
instrument and the plainest principles of COM
mon justice. Mr.. Hunter clearly points out
the mode by which this great wrong may be
redressed, and that toe without violating the
constitution. We cordially indorse his views
and hold that the Southern representative who
fails to urge the claim of our despoiied people
in proper season will be recreant TO his duty
and falthless to the trust imposed III him. If
there be grounds for technical objection, let
them be urged by our late enemies, but not
by the members of our own household, for
we believe, if we are but true to ourselves
the time will come, as indicated by the letter
published from distinguished Northern gem
tleman TO Mr.. Hunter, wfen North will
recognize the justice of the clam ,ad the pro
priety of its liquidation in some 10. N that will
bring great relief to our people.
The Wing it will be setn asserts that
tho abolition of slavery Vas Illegal and
unjust, and boldly proposes the organiza-
ton of the South politically to obtain an
equivalent for the damage through the
treasury. Mr.. Hunter will be the cham
pion of the measure when he takes hi:
seat in the Senate. The democratic
members of the South will support him,
and we shall have renewal in Congress
of the fight over slavery and secession.
The republican papers at Washington
speak of the scheme as'Treason Revived
While the republican party exists no such
scheme can succeed That the rebels
have such plans in agitation. countenanced
by northern democrats, is the hest of rea-
sons why the republican party should be
kept in full vigor and efficiency 1t has
yet an important mission to fulfill.

the better information Of Congress respecting

Before Judge Nelson.
In April, 1872 John Wallace was appointed by
the Street Commissioner an inspector on Buffalo
avenue-which was then being graded and paved
by contract. lie drew his pay, OF $75 per monGh,
until the 1st of December last, but on the LIST OF
January the Comptroller refused to pay his salary
for December. The warrant for the money was
issued by the Street Commissioner, duly signed by
the Mayor and City Clerk and audited by the Au-
ditor, but Notwithstanding this the Comptroller
refused to pay Wallace was dismissed In January.
Yesterday morning Counsellor johnson applied
to Judge Nelson for an order to Comptroller
Schroeder to show cause why mandamus should
not issue against him to compel han to pay Wallace
his salary for December.
Corporation Counsel William c. Dewitt, in orpo-
siton, presented an affidavit of the Comptroller
setting forth that during December Wallace rem
dered 10 services to the city, nor in fact FOR several
months previously. M. Dewitt SAID he did not
think IL necessary 20 set forth anything mere than
an affidavit OF merits Tor he believed IL to be well
not lie against the city for the collection o. salary
any debt against the city. THIS case was
ono OF series OF cases which the officers OF the
city were deter mined to resist. Ihcre were large
number OF inspectors OF streets appointed by viz
tue OF a resolution OF the Common Council, and for
the larger portion Ot their terms Of Office they rem
dercd no Substantial services TO the city, work
entirely suspended on The streets. The Coun-
seiIor held farther that the granting OF manda-
mus would be denying the city the right OF trial by
jury. Ihis question WIS presented In the case OF
the People eX rel. Swift vs. the Treasurer, where
swift sought TO collect SI7,CO0 He had at that
time a certificate Of the Park Commission, who
had supervision OF his contract countersigned by
the Mayor. The Auditors signature was not
necessary at the time Judge Tappen held
it to be mere ministerial duty to grant
mandamus. The General Term, however,
rendered decision more emphatic than agreea-
bic to the Judge, and settling practically that tho
mandamus would not lie against the city to collect
a claim. No mandamus Lad since been brought
except in the present case.
Mr. Johnson replied at some length, ana held
that the Comptroller mlqht as wei refuse to pay
Supreme Court Judge his salary because he was not
on duty. Wallace was regularly appointed, and 1t
HAD not been shown that he had refused to render
services incumbent upon him. 1t had not been
shown that there was no work to be DONE and 1t
was not lair that the Comrtroiler should refuse TO
pay because there was no work TO be done IN con-
sequence OF the fault of others. If such a prece-
dent that was established IL would be necessary
for person to go into Court, prove his appoint
ment, and prove that there was work to be done.
Judge Nelson reserved his decision.
