Little Rock Gazette: The colored
people of Dorsey county have prayed
very earnestly for rain. The leading
church engaged in this species of orison
labor, not considering itself we'll enough
supplied with members, sent over into
an adjoining county and borrowed few,
agreeing to pay heavy interest in hymn.
books. Even this failed, but the COW of
emergency was taken by the horns when
the preacher issued the following pro-
clamation "We'se bound for to have
enough members in dis church to meet
de occasion, and hereby sets my hand
and seal to de artickel what say all COL
lured persons, respectable or otherwise
in dis county, and counties jinin, is de-
clared members of dis church till after
de nextlain.'"

Only a Mechanic.

We once saw al active industrious
house carpenter bearing q lasting grudge
against certain person, because, in
speaking of some matter of public ma
ture, he said of this carpenter, "His
opinion or influence is not worth much /;
he is only mechanic" In the minds
of certain persons there may be a CLASH
fcation of individuals according to pro-
fession or occupation. Very weak-mind-
ed, inexperienced young men, or thought
less girls, whose training has been defec-
tive, may turn up their noses at men be-
cause they are only mechanics. They
forget that the greatest men, the bene-
factors of our race, have been mechan-
les. Hugh Miller, Benjamin Frank
lin, Fulton, Arkwight, Mccormick, and
host of other men whom the world has
delighted to honor, were only humble la
borers, and were, no doubt, often taunted
for their mechanical calling. The most
useful inventions and the greatest i'm
provements have been made by persons
who were only mechanics. As class
they are no more worthy of reproach than
merchants or farmers.
1t would be we'll for Spartanburg me-
chanics to look around and see what they
are doing to turn away these reproaches:
In the long run, a person will be esteemed
according to his true worth. The dray-
man, who receives only ifty cents day,
may stand higher in the estimation of his
neighbors than some who set them
selves up as somebody. There are
mechanics who are unworthy the name
they bear, and these perhaps give char.
acter to the class. The man begrimmed
with smoke and dust in the machine
shop is just as much respected by good
and sensible people as if he stood behiud
counter or had an Office. A mechanic
may deserve all that can be said against
him and not try very hard either. Let
him run down the work of his fellows,
let him constantly fret and chafe because
he has to work with his hands, let him
eternally complain of his hard lot, let
him spend his nights and holidays around
bar.rooms and disreputable houses, let
him neglect all the higher duties of life,
and very soon he will merit the worst
that can be said about him. Such men
as these tend to bring disgrace on any
calling or profession. 1t is the duty of
our resident mechanics to reflect honor
on themselves and their trades. This
they can do by proper respect for them
selves. If they are faithful in the per-
formance of all their contracts, if they
spend their spare dollars for beautifying
their homes and furnishing their families
with good reading matter, if they i'm,
prove and progress in their business, If
they seek such company and associations
as will tend to their improvement and
selt-respect, it will never be said of such
they are only NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.

PpoDUCrs OF CONVICT LABoR.-Some
interesting facts in relation to labor have
been prepared by Superintendent Wright,
of the Massachusetts, Bureau of Labor
Statistics. According to this expert the
number of convicts in 1878 in all the
State prisons of the Union was 29,167, of
whom 13, ,1S6 were employed in mechan-
ical industries. The greatest number was
in New York and the smallest number
was in Rhode Island, very naturally, the
one being the largest and the other about
the smallest State in the Union. At
the rate of forty cents per day, which
was the average, the wages and earnings
ofconvicts for the wholeyear amounted to
$1,624,515. At 50 per day, which is the
average price of similar labor outside of
prisons, these samo men would have
earned SS,12l,576 according to Mr..
Wright. The products of prison labor,
if we take the labor at 50 per day, did
not exceed $4,000, 900 in 1878, while the
products of all the mechanical industries
of the United States amounted to FIVE
thousand millions.
