Gouley's excursion to Atlantic City,

from the fact that the trip is varied
part of the time on water and part on

Chas. B Lore, Esq, has prepared
his opinion on the authority of the
City Council to enforce the collection
OF the assessments for the macadamiz-

it to the committee of the property

The opinion covers every point of
the question, and declares that Coun-

the assessments.
The property owners will hold
another meeting tomorrow night,
when the opinion will be read.
The further payment of assessments
will be resisted, and some of those who
have already paid, will institute pro-
ceedings against the city for the re-
funding of the amounts paid.

cumulated profits of labor. Itis necessary
that labor should assert its voice in its own
defense at the ballot-box. The cause of
labor in the South is the cause Of the ne
gro. 1t is the cause Of impartial suffrage.
Labor belongs to the creditor class. The
lsborer performs hiswork before he receives
his pay. He credits his employer, who
pretends to be the capitalist, till the end OF
the week, month or quarter, and for por-
tiop, perhaps, until the crop is made and
marketed. And yet these land owners af-
feet to be the patrons of labor. Why the
fact is that without the aid of labor the land
owners would soon be paupers. This labor
question in the South will soon overshadow
all others, and will control the politics OF
that section. 1t will unite the white and
black labor in bonds of personal interest,
and those intelligent and far-seeing land
owners who will display the courage neces-
sary to grapple with it and take the lead in
its direction and control, will deserve best
of their country.
National Republican., 1876-10-12
LABOR IN POLITICS.

The Southern land owners should take
warning from the popular voice in Ohio
and Indiana. That voice appears to have
condemned eight or ten of the allies of the
Southern bandits in Congress to stay at
home next term. The indications are that
the people do not approve the policy of the
Democratic House last session. The
Forty fifth Congress will scarcely be of
character TO aid the Defarious policy of
Southern Democrats. The sooner these
landowners, who claim superiority over
laborers on account of their inherited or
acquired possessions, recognize the fact
that it is the culture of land that makes its
value rather than the possession of title in
fee, and then learn to cherish and protect
the labor necessary to its proper culture,
regardless Of the color or previous condi-
ton of servitude of that labor, the sooner
will they find their landed possessions
yielding them a profit. The Southern
Democrats and the landowners are here
used as Synonymous terms, because in the
South no one was ever considered worthy
Of honors and confidence unless he in
herited property or bonds and stocks or
negro servants or had acquired the same.
And, strange TO say, such people were
always considered too good to toll with the
hands. In other words, to work was not con-
sidered genteel. Now, that labor has the
legal right to vote and study and accumu-
late, it becomes the principal factor in social
economy, instead Of being, as formerly
under the slave systems part of the estate.
Why cannot Southern men realize this2
Real estate being of no value unless i'm
proved by labor, is now an encumbrance,
because it will not pay taxes if the labor is
not obtsinable 70 cultivate it. 1t is most
singular that the Southern landowners do
not see this subject in the same light with
their best writer upon political economy
either before or since the war. We allude
to Hon. VIM. NJ. Burwell, of New Orleans.
He has become convinced that the true way
to secure remunerative labor is to employ
and pay it, educste and elevate it until it
becomes thoroughly intelligent and skilled.
Every movement in the direction of educa-
ton of labor tends indirectly to increase the
value of the land which that labor is en-
ployed to cultivate. If labor is oppressed,
reduced to peonage, it will dwindle, wither
and finally evaporate. Skilled labor natu
rally avoids and shuns the localities in which
ordinary labor is dishonored. Every at
tempt 10 reduce the labor Of a section to the
level of chattel is positive warning to in
teJIigent labor to keep away from that Sec
tion. II is more than this. 1t is an impera-
tive command from the aggregated labor
interests of the country to shun all such
localities, lest capital should vaunt itself
sboys lis creator. Capital is but the &C.
National Republican., 1876-10-12

In THE list of vice presidents of the
democratic Soldiers National Reform
Association, whose convention was re-
Gently held at Indianapolis, Indiana, We
find ''Colonel - Duggan, of Colorado. "
Now, there is but one ex- Union soldier of
prominence bearing that name, viz: A. W.
Duggan, who was colonel Of the 1st Mich
igan cavalry, and who served with distin-
guished gallantry during the whole Of the
rebellion. Colonel Duggan was in this city
in August last, and no one knowing him
well or who conversed with him then could
be made to believe-on Democratic testi
moDy at least-that he could so far forget
the side upon which he fought as to join
the rebel Democracy. 1t is true that while
here, and when the Democratic leaders
were throwing out drag-net to catch
prominent ex-soldiers to engage in their
cause, he was approached and offered great
pecuniary inducements to turn traitor to
the Republican party, which inducements
were Indignantly spurned. But to set this
question at rest, and at the same time show
what base means were taken to make re-
spectacle appearance at indianapolis, it is
only necessary to quote from letter re-
ceived by General E. W. Whitaker, of this
city, from Colonel Duggan, dated Denver,
Col, August 90. 1876, now before US. He
writes: Governor Routt has received the
nomination for Governor of the new
Estate, with lot of other good men on
"ihe ticket, and we are going to elect the
"whole outfit. So you can bet on Colo
"rado coming in as Republican State.
"The Democrats are putting their men in
L" the field. Their convention commenced
this morning. feel confident we can get
"away with their baggage and not half
"try. We cannot afford to gics this GOv
p" ernment up to tile rebels get !" ..-
Such is the language of one Of the vice
presidents, and we're it worth while, we
believe 1t could be shown that majority Of
the names used to give dignity to the So
called Democratic soldiers convention were
there used without authority, were those of
disgrsced officers. or Of those who have
soured on the party because their services
were not so highly appreciated by the Ad-
mInistration as by themselves. A notable
evidence that suchis the case was the ab-
sence from the convention of so many of
the distinguished individuals whose names
had been heralded to give it ecldt.

THE Republicans seem to have gained
some twelve or fourteen members of the

badly scratched that it will probably re-
quire the official figures to determine def
nitely who is chosen Governor, but the
popular vote on Congressman will proba-
bly, show Republican majority in that
State. The State tickets in both Ohio and
Indiana were more or less affected by local
