NEW HAMPSHl RE.
Speech by MIR. Beecher.

CONCORD, Sept 23'--There were nearly 1000
people at the cattle show and fair in this city
to-day drawn thither to hear Rev. III. w.
Beechers address. He spoke for thirty min
utes or more ON labor, combining his remarks
almost entirely to the subject. The nature and
primitive condition of man was considered at
length, after which he spoke of the educati ng
force of work in individuals and its wealth
creating power 10 relation to society. Work
ing he said, is not drudging; it is going to
school. By men and industry man is largely
educated in the carrier period of his existence.
Work is blessing, without which there can
be no Individual excellence. Society cannot be
strong or secure that is not founded upon the
laborlng classes. Being obliged to work for
food, raiment and shelter is great benefit to
man. 1t is Gods distributive whipping When
men are cared for by nature they are not worth
being cared for. Men by working become fer
tile in cxpedients and rich in mind and expe
rience. He deprecated the idea of men work
ing through a lifetime to take the necessity of
work from their boys, aud said that by so doing
they were made purposeless and shapeess.
Woe be to the girl who is brought up not to
know how to work. These are misfortunes
enough that fall upon the fair sex. There are
sudden revolutions in affairs that more often
fall like ptiless storms upon their heads than
upon those of men but of ell adversities the
foolish mother for fair daughter is the worst.
IT you would produce the best crops, bring up
boys that know how to work and are not
ashamed OF IL. ne VINO SEEKS 10 gan nVell-
hood without returning an equivalent for it, is
a thief. 1 look upon the progress of industry
in our land as the most suspicious circumstance
of the times.
He took strong ground against the eight hour
system of work, and said that unless such a
war cry be carefully controlled it will lead to
decentralization and mischief. He alluded to
the effect of war upon the industries of the
country but thought it would be benefited By
the respect for labor. A better political econo
my invites us now. The East and West the
North and South are united by common nee
essity for labor. Variety and not identy that
makes nations strong

The market for Wool continues in the same quiet
state previously noticed although manufacturers are
purchasing more or less every day, and at the close
OF the week we have doubt the sales will add up
to be well sustained. If there is much pressure
to buy on the part of manufacturers there is GER
tany as little disposition the part OF holders to
would be sure to be looked upon favoraby by deal
ers whose stocks are already broken.
In New York speculation has been freely INDUCED
in during the interval since last but manufac-
turers have bought lightly. The demand for cloth
ing material has been confined to domestic, as the
supply Of foreign is light, and generally held above
the views Of purchasers.
In Philadelphia there has been decidedly more H.
quiry for medium grades-partiy speculation, but the
aggregate transac lions have not been large. There
is liberal stock of fine fleece here, but buyers of this
description come forward slowly. Pulled and tub
Woods meet an active inquiry at rather better quota
lions. Clothing Wool is held firmly.
