CHEAP VS.. WELL PAID LABOR.

The following extract from a speech
delivered by Horatio Seymour, at
Rochester, New York, ten years ago,
upon the subject of the Burlingame
treaty. is well worthy of reproduction at
the present time. In it Mr.. Seymour
hits the nail squarely on the head and
deals sledge- hammer blows at the cheap
labor system advocated by many at the
present time
at is said we want cheap labor. We do
not want cheap labor, but well paid labor.
Interest as well as justice and humanity
call for this. II all who labor in this
country took the wages and spent as little
money as the Chinese, our Government
would be bankrupted and business would
shrink up. Well paid labor spends freely
with the business man and fills the ma
tional treasury by the imports and the du-
ties ii pays on what it uses. This is the
whole ource of our financial strength as
compared with other peoples. If labor is
brought down to the Chinese standard
there will at ono be a difference in the
condition of classes which will in the end
overthrow our Government. We pay
higher taxes and interest than any other
people, and if the price of labor is put
down to Asiatic rates, capital will swallow
up the earnings of toll more rapidly than
b was ever lone yet in the history of
nations. If this is to be our future we
have lost in vain nearly a million lives in
the war. 1t is not the object of govern
ment to undersell others to pinch our
selves that we may pinch others. The
great end Of craftsmanship is to give COM
fort and plenty to each home, and to take
care that labor is well paid. We should
seek to give happiness to each fireside cir
Gle, and not fill the Golfers of capitalists"

LONDON, Feb. lin the House of Com
mons yesterday, Sir Henry Wolff Con
seryatiye) asked whether the Irish prohi-
bition act would apply to foreigners.
Forster repliedin the affirmative, adding
that under former acts of the kind, citi-
zens of the United States had been ar
rested.
Wolff then inquired if those citizens
were not tried by public tribunals.
Forster requested that notice be given Of
this question.
The Home Secretary declared that if the
other ticket Of leave men acted as Davitt
had, they would be sent to prison again.
Arthur O'Connor Home Ruler pro-
nounced the published statement, that the
Irish members Of Parliament had received
pay from friends Of the Land League, an
atrocious calumny, and moved a resolution
that its publication was a breach of the
privilege of the House.
Gladstone and Northcote expressed SYM
pathy with the Home Rule members in the
case, and O'Connor withdrew his motion.

ARIZONA.
Plenty OF Good Prospects still Left
In the Territory,
Isan Francisco Stock Exchange.

ISan Francisco Stock Exchange
A gentleman just from the Territory
tells US that the valuable mineral deposits
OF Arizona are by no means all unearthed
yet, but new and valuable discoveries are
being made constantly. Scarcely a day
passes but some new "ind" is announced,
and a showing OF magnificent specimens
fully attests its truth. That Arizona is a
silvery country is now a settled fact, and
each day but adds to the accumulated evil
dence that she has already far outstripped
every other mineral-producing country in
the world. As yet there are more mines than
money to work them, but they are gradu-
ally drifting into the hands of individuals
and companies with means and a determ-
nation to bring out whatever there is.
The bullion shipment is constant and
something enormous. About three weeks
ago a mine newly discovered and located,
Eureka daily sentinel. [volume] (Eureka, Nev.) 1871-1887, 1881-02-12

about fifteen miles from Benson. was sold
to an Eastern company, known as the
" Russell Gold and Silver Mill and Mining
Company" for $780, 00, the discoverers
retaining an interest in lieu of the pur-
chase money. This mine is a little
eastward of Benson in the Dragon
Mountains, north Of the railroad.
So far as worked it indicates
that it will be the richest mine yet devel-
oped in the Territory. The vein is extern
sive and the silver prominent, with a
liberal admixture Of gold, and assays at a
very high figure. That district is now at
tracing considerable attention. New mines
have also been discovered both north and
south of the railroad at ella Bend,
one of them showing a vein from "a to 80
inches wide. Others show rich assays of
gold, silver and copper. Arrangements
are now being perfected to thoroughly
demonstrate the value of this new locality.

San FRANCISCO, Feb. 11.-Mammoth

The schooner John Bright, which left
this port last May for Borham Island, has
never been heard from since she left, and
the insurance companies have settled with
her owners. She was commanded by Capt.

aged about 40 years, suicided this morning
by putting the muZzle Of a pistol in his
mouth and firing it off. Protraeted phys

SANTA BARBARA Cali, Feb. 11.-Clar-
enee Gray testified in his own behalf that
the shooting of Theodore Clancy, by him,
was purely accidental. This testimony re-
garding the principal points in the case
does not differ materially from that already
given, except that he insists that during
the two scuffies which ensued, he was try
ing to get away from Clancy. That he
did not want anything to do with him,
but was looking for Stearns. He drew the
pistol because he thought Clancy was
going to draw one on him, but was in the
act of returning it to his bosom when it
accidentally went off.
SHASTA (Cal.), Feb. 11.-Weather clear
to-day. Much damage has been done by
the late storm. Most all the bridges across
the large creeks are gone. The large iron
bridge across Cow Greek, near Millville, is
gone. In Trinity County the damage was
great. All the bridges across the Trinity
River were swept away, except the bridge
at Lewiston. No mail from San Francisco

The arbitrary and unprecedented
course taken by the Speaker of the House
OF Commons in order to break down the
successful obstruction of the Irish mem.
bers who were opposing by every means
in their power the reading of Mr.. Fors-
ter's Coercion bill, is an example of the
familiar saying that necessity knows no
law. The rules of the House were un.
equal to the occasion, and but for the ex-
traordinary action of the Speaker, the
debate, if it can be called a debate, might
have been prolonged just as long as the
physical strength of the obstructionists
held out. 1t was evident from the first
that the deadlock would be brought to
an end in this way, but how severely
British institutions have been strained by
the episode can only be appreciated by
those who understand the Importance in
an Englishman's eyes Of tradition and
precedent. The victory over the stub
born Irishmen has not been o without
a sacrifice.

THERE was a curious sort Of a dinner
at London the other day, distinguished
electricians being the guests. In the
center Of the table was a covered dish,
alleged to contain a "gymnotus," fresh
from a river of South America. The
chairman, instead OF saying grace, spoke
to the dish, as if asking some n there
to ask the usual blessing. Then a solemn,
but distinct and pleasant voice was heard,
apparently coming from the dish, repeat,
ing the ~favorite form. The ove was
then raised, and there was a telephone,
somebody at the other end having per
formed the pious service.
