ty is found in tote report of an officer
employed to enforce a law which regu
lates the employment of children in fac•
tories. This witness says : -"I found
ono thousand children employed in fac
tories, generally of low condition, Ignor-•
ant•ln many eases of their own ages,
deprived in greet part or altogether of
the school privileges which the law re

overseers New England should blot
out every line she has written concern
jog "commerce in human chattels by the

When this master WII4 asked if it was
not his custom to do something for the
physical, intellectual or moral welfare
6f his working people, hear his reply:
never do. As for myself, I re
gard my working people, as I regard my
machinery, solely as they can do my
work for what I choose to pay I keep
them. and get all out of them I can.—
What they do, or how they fare, outside
