tFor the Republican,
Labor aoa Employ ment.

The manner in which onr depressed
Industries, may be stimulated to action
10 the important issue tha. demands the
attention OF onr congressman At this
svsntful period.
Hon. Thos. r. Bsysrd, in his New
port speech, August 18th, says, I'VE
must set the current Of labor flowing
and employment,must be found for It.
There seems 10 bS great diversity
of opinion, q to the best method oi
bringing about more healthy condition
for the skilled labor Of the country, and
each Of our representatives, seems to
have . plan for the revival Of our de-
pressed industries which they have
been advocating. the past six years,
and ~ yet, no relief comes to distress
I'd people.
We want statesmen with courage to
advocate an honest progressive policy
in reference to Internal improvements,
bat II is not necessary for tho govern
ment to inaugurate an extravagant sys-
tom OF expenditures, but assistance can
be judiciously rendered, which would
enable the manufacturing and CONNER
cial interests of the country to recover,
aud provide homes for thousands Of the
unemployed.
The bill for aid in constructing the
Texas and Pacific Railway has been re
ported favorably to the House and Sen
ate. This bill asks the Government to en-,
dorse the bonds for the payment Of inter.
est only at the rate of per cent. amoun'
ting to not over $1,000, 900. TO secure
the government, the company propose
giving mortg age on the entire line
aud restoring about 100000 acres
of lana in New Mexico, Arizonia and
California. The bill also provides for
the Government to retain all dues to
the company foI transportation OF mails.
troops, supplies, &c, which soon will
he sufficient alone to provide for the
annual interest on bonds. Nothing
could be more safe. If congressman
can make q bill more stringent, the
company invites them to 10 so.
The entire business interest of the
country demands competing line to
the Pacific, also for the rich trade OF
Mexico, which is now controlled by
Foreign nations. As an economical meas
ure on the part of the Government the
early completion of this line is sdvisa-
BILE, and no section of the country
would be benefited more by the con.
struction of this road than our own
manufacturing city. Work started in
the Southern Atlantic States would
revive our car, iron, boat and carriage
industries, indeed it would be almost
impossible to estimate the beneficial
effect upon the industries and ma
terial progress of the whole country.

Smalley's Anecdote of Blaine In Cleveland
Herald.
Before the great discovery of the
"kiss- Joker" ballot, Boston drummer
was travelling in Alabama, and IN cleo
tion day he had the curiosity to go to
the polls in the little town where he
happened to be stopping. He wen, early
in the morning and found all the voters
assembled. There were about 100 whites
and 500 blacks, each race massed by
itself on one side OF little square in
front Of the Court House. Three or four
men Of each party we're engaged in
consultation in the open space between
the opposing forces. After long con-
fab it was announced that an agree
ment had been reached, and that a
white man should vote first, then a ne
gro, then a white man, and so on alter.
nately. Everybody said this was fair,
and the voting began. When the second
negro offered his vote he was challeng-
ed, and ten minutes were consumed in
debating his status and rights.
A few more votes were cast, and then
there was another challenge and an
other long argument. About every
third m m was challenged Some were
white men, to give the proceeding an
air Of fairness. The Boston man OBJ
ser ed that the whites were killing
time, so that the hour for closing the
polls should come when the last white
man had got in his vote. He went
around to the polling-place again in the
afternoon, and, sure enough, the last
white man in the line had voted on the
stroke of six. The polls were closed,
leaving 400 negroes in line who had
not voted, and the Democrats had on"
majority in that town, although the
Republicans Outnuuibered them by five
to one.

Of giving him a start for 1850. judge
Hoadley has given the plan the impe-
tus of his approval. He admits that
it is risky to run Thurman tor Cover,
nor, because ifdefeated, his chances
for Presid, ntial nomination will be in

''if he wante to be President he must
take some risks" That is about all

A Friends Funeral.

The funeral of William Conard, an
aged friend, whose death we have al
ready noticed, took place yesterday NOR
ming from his residence, 905 Orange
street, at s o'clock. Five coaches con
tainirg the near relatives and a hsarse
containing the remains of the decease
composed the funeral train. On &C.
count of horse hitched to one Of the
coaches becoming mulish the party
were detained on the way back and did
not reach this city until 8 O'Clock
A large number of friends were present
at New West Grove burying ground,
the deceased having been held in high
esteem by all who knew him.
CITY illumination.
Under the new order regulating the
lighting of city lamps, our citizens will
be greatly benefited. Heretofore the
people have been paying to the gas
company, s3l per lamp, and the city
has been doing the repairing and clean.
ing, which rendered an additional ex.
pense. Under the new law, passed by
City Council last evening, the whole
care of the city illumination will be
thrown upon the parties contracting
the Coal Gas Company and the Globe
Company. The expense per lamp has
been reduced about one-third. The
complaints arising from imperfect illu.
mnation it is hoped by this law will be-
obviated, and general satisfaction given
to all.
Religious.
Rev. Mr.. Inskip will preach in the
Asbury church on Sunday morning
next, and in the afternoon will deliv-
er sermon in the church at Ninth and
French streets, to the colored people.
This service will begin at O'Clock.
Rev. DR.. Lauderback will delivers
his farewell sermon at the Calvary
church on Sunday next. In the mcrn-
ing his subject will be Heaven" and
that in the evening will be "Hell."
The Doctor is an able speaker, and these
subjects being of infinite importance
most effective sermons will be the re-.
suit.
Got Duplicate.
Edward l.. Martin, Congressman elect
from this State, has set at rest all quib.
bes in regard to his right to seat by
getting from Secretary of State, W. M
Evarts, duplicate warrant of his par
don for aidinh and abetting the enemy
during the rebellion. He can now pro-
duce the duplicate whenever his
right is disputed, but neither he nor ex
United States Marshal can produce the
original. The procuring of the dupli-
cate is evidence that the original was
lost if ever issued.
The Water supply.
The engineer at the Water Works in
forms US that the amount of water
pumped into the CoolSprng Reservoir,
reached $4,000, 900 gallons. The la.
Dor of filing closed on Monday evening.

WHAT DEMOCRACY HAS DONE FOR
THE LABORING MAN.

First-Before the Rebellion they held f..
900, 900 Of laborers in slavery, thus degrading
the whole mass of laborers in the country.
Second-They refused to pass the Home
stead law.
Third-They went to war to perpetuate
slavery.
Fourth-They held that slavery was the
normal condition of the laborer.
Fifth-They enacted that all dues to the
Government should be paid In coin, that Gov
eminent employees might be paid in supe.
rior currency, leaving only deprecated State
currency for the laborer.
SiXth-They opposed the creation of q
Government currency for all the people.
Seventh-Since their accession to power,
under the false plea of economy, they have
refused appropriations of the peoples
money for needed improvements, thus de.
pressing labor in q time of general distress,
while they squandered millions in profitless
Investigation and payment of Rebel claims
Eighth-They have attempted the reduc.
ton Of the tariff, that American labor might
be reduced to competition with the half paid
labor Of foreign countries.
Ninth-They have refused encouragement
to commerce through which our surplus
productions might find profitable foreign
market.
Tenth-They have embarrassed and re.
tarded the public business by unwise reduc.
lions of the clerical force in the Depart.
mente.
Eleventh-They have attempted the re.
duction Of the army below the actual neces.
sity Of the country for the protection Of the
frontier settlements, and with the view of
throwing upon an overburdened market an
additional supply Of unemployed laborers.-

and fmparttally. You will show this letter
to the Marshall you should have occasion
to place warrantsin his hands relating to this
subject. Very respectfully,
