The maxim -" the laborer is worth his hire," is as trite as it is ancient In eiery age and in all countries. manual labor has been recognized as a nece ssity ; in the civi li zed world its dignity is conceded to be co-equal with, its necessity. Without labOr capital is almost useless ; therefore tliere is no conflict between capital and labor, and all the difficulty which has arisen upon this subject has been the result of ignorance, or occasioned by the teachings of political dema- gogues. In ' -his cannily especially, wealth is seldom transmitted from fatherto son for more than one Or two gene' , rations! The poor boy-of to' day will be the' wealthy man of the next gen eration while the sons of thA rich and affluent not nnfrequently leave their posterity penniless. view of this admitted truth, it is strange that intelligent men who have not been born 1 - With - ‘ gold-spoone _in their mouths, should be found who sit idly dow,-n- and ,bewail their fate, alleging _that capital is opposing labor, and that the poor man; has no chance. Who are the largest capi talists' of the present day ? STEWAIIT ivas 400 r boy forty years'ago ; Aria PecKin followed the vocation of a journyman. carpenter .after he was grown to manhood. The means by which - these men have accumulated their i , ortnties is open to every boy and man in the country who is pos sessed of the industry,and capacity to'become the "architect of his own fortune." - While we now and always have advocate& paying liberally for; labor, we have no sympathy with thOse who would enconzagthe laborer to arro gate io himself ttre right to !control the property or dictate, to t he ern ployer how his business shpuld be conducted. Such a principle, if ac knowledged, would undermine the very founlation of 'our gov4nmpnt, withdraw capital from all public en terprises, and entail Wanton! misery and , suffering uric it the, laboring classes. Independent, discriet men,. will not invest their means Where it is likely to be wrested from them by purely physical force. This attempt on the part of employes to I compel employers to accede to demands which the latter deem unre4sonable and niajnat, has already hpen the means of withdrawing capital and suspending we k in different parts of the', conntr, to the great loss of those who depend upon empl4ment for the means of sahsistence. - CapitaliSts and corporations should b e wilting iogive a fair and liberal remuneration to the laborer, and the empl•• should stifie•to make him- - self ii , ,efut and indispensible to the employer. in no other way can the , grea„t problem of labor and capital he satisfactorily solved. The theorY that right makes right is as danger ous when applied to . labor as when assumed by capital, and every at tempt-to violate'the rights of .citizens, by whomsoever Made, should be dis countenanced by every L gopd citizen. The following extract ! from a re- cent address made by- Rev. W. H. LyrrwroN, of England, are so appli cable to this subject that we subjoin hen'; "The tfoestion of capital and labor growing ever, more anarchic, insoluble altogether by the notions hitherto applied.to it, ix pretty certain to issue into petroleum ono day, unless some other gospel than that of `Dismal.ficience come to illuminate it. Two thinds are pretty mare to me. The first is, that capital and labor never.can or will agree together, till they both first of all decide on doing their work fruthftll ly throughout, and like men of conscience and honor, whose highest aim is to behave like ) faithful eilizens of this universe, and obey the eternal commandment of the Almighty God, who made them. The second thing is, that a sadder objet than either that of the coal strike or any conceivable strike, is the fact that,loose ly speaking, all England has, decided that the profitablest way ix to do its work ill, slimly, swiftly, and mendaciously. What a contrast between now. - and, say only a hundred years ago? At that latter date; (or still more con spienunrey for ages before that, all England awoke to its work with an invocation to the Eternal Maker to bless them in their day's la bor,'and heti) them to do it well. Now, all En gland, shopkeepers, workmen. all mariner of competing laborers awaken, as if with an un spoken but heartfelt prayer to Beelzbub : Oh. help as, tholigh great lord of shoddy, adol terittion, and malfeasanne, to do-our work with a maximum of slimness, swiftness, profit, and mendacity, for the Devil's sake , Amen!': Mu. Morro v, in' his biief reply to rn Scausz,.sumed up the creed 'of the spe,ciej-fesumptionista as ,folloirs: "Free trade,a email volume of currency, law uigi:s, and direct taxation." This is the doctrine .of the ancient Dem'o qacy, of the modern Democracy, of Liberalism, and of all -the cliques and factions which to-day vainly strive to unite against the Republi can party. The creed of Republi canism is. the opposite of these, namely : A judicious system of protection to home industry, with -a view to the, widest diversification of productioni the highest attainable maximum wages to all class of labor; a lirge volume of currency, guaranteeing to ,every legitimate e aterprise a prime- necessity—cbeap money; and a plan of revenue which shall bear most heavily upon the luxuries of life. TT.WstB a matter'of a good deal of surprise and comment that, during a the troubles on the railroadlast week, the resident director, Colonel Ploramr, did not make his appear ance.

So lon,, as this has been con fined to ' misrepresentati on nd fabrication chiefly of a pe•tional character, I Ve declined to' notice them.

Both of them, I trust, have too mn li respect for themselves and their associates to euPpose that. they could or 'would cons-nt to force an - bill upon the Senate. When falsehoods are published as my opinions upon pnbllc questions, in which the people of my State are largely interested, as if uttered by me, my duty, to them, they say, r tires that I avail myeell of the only means left me. r- meeting and refuting such an assumptiOn.

Now, -sir. If there be any Senator upodthis._ r who is open to the charge of advocating a p y which instead of di minishing. will increase th wages of labor, I think I am open to that charge, a a it can be sustained by numerous quotations from my speeches when the tariff and reeenne bills hare been nnder discussion, - to none of which will I delay in referring here; but / condensed my whole oPieions upon that question, in operating upo that milked.

The Adrian Press, of the loth, contains the !following statement couearning the expectations !aerie of its citizens: • , "One of the largest estates that ever fell to lAmericau heirs is just now being brought into !notice, and as one (dour well known' citizens is lan heir, if becomes of no little local interest in *this city. Mr. W. T.

Mr. Carver anti George Day expe ct - soon to he able to lay their i laim for the recovery of this vast estate, and will go to England for thit-perpose. £he estate is worth the marve lous sum or upward of £100,000,000, a large portion of which lies in the, Bank of England awaiting the very proof which Mr. Carver has dug. out of. registers and other documents, many of them more than 200 years old:" escd euka order 1%111 and a = mber ester- ULF,' CO has re elution g the bank- tho bri 131111 ir, the 'I, will ffi q, o .e.

THE New York Tribune is taking a bold stand on the side of the smug glers and revenue cheats *among, the New York merchants. It finds the English langiage incapable of pro ducing words strong. enough to ex press its loathing of thoSe.who have brought the offenders againit the revenue to jaitice, and "spies" infor mers. and other sexthing epithets are litirl3d with surprising vigor at the men in officeTwho thOught it'was thekr duty to enoroe the laws and protect the national revenues. Three-fourths of the importing merchants of New York are said to be foreigners, who locate in that city to qh!ckly make fortunes and return to their homes in the old world to enjoy them. These men have no sympathies With our government or people, anal ark very widely of that kind who d idn't care how they make money; so 'that they accumulate it. It can easily be imagined how ready such men — are to`avoid paying duties on their - importations, quid what a harvest they would have, at the ex pense or our national revenues, if there were not official eyes, upon them to watch them Why the Trib une should think it such an outrage to make these men observe the laws, or punish them if they do not, it is hard for an individual unacquainted with "the Ways that are dark" in large cities to - suggest. But then the Tribuzi is an independent reform pa -per, and in that is involved a good many things which it is impossible for 'old-fashioned honest people to understand. AN OLD MAINE LIQUOR LAAV.,- In July, 1690, Maine being then a Brit ish province, jurisdiction in criminal eases was vested in a Court of -Sess ions, its members being partly mili tary and partly of a civil composition. At one of their , sittings they declared the following as the law pertaining to the liquor_ traffic. Whereas there is great complaint made of several abuses taken notice of in ordinaries by excessive drinking rum, flyps, etc.' The ill consequences whereof is publickly seen in the mis behaviour of several persons in the presence of authority for the prevent ing the like for the future, it is, therefore. Ordered, That from : henceforth there shall not be any; rum, or other liquors or flyp, be sold nnto -any in habit-int of the town or way, any 01. 7 dinary keeper sell unto any strangei more than one gill for a person at any onetime.
