ER HT HOURS , WORK.
I. It Is proposed In several of the &mei to re
al:l66e hinnber of hoofs of dolly labor, making
,eight hours the role instead of tea. That this
wRI be done at some future tame we think to
moat-probable, but the , present movement ap
' peers to be premature. Just 'now when the
whole couutry Is trying to overcome the ex
' hrwsileZ effects of the war, and erwort thelmr.
den of of taxation which It kw IJy assruned,
Is hardly a propilions time for =tailing the
hours of labor. Rather Is more strenuous toll
needed let prodnce the means of paying our pub.
tic indebtedness, end to renew the progress In
Improvement whichhad to be at least partly sus
pended dining the war.
Modern Inventions have indeed enabled man
kind to produce the necessaries; of 'life with far
less labor than formerly; but at the same time
new wants have been created which were unfelt
before, the difficulty of supplying which has
almost_ kept race with the means.. When, In
addition to these waste, coma the demands of the
nation,in
.41 ratio lips fold greater. than they
used to be, we may well be cautious that we do
not lessen ear ability to meeithem.
We grant that there are strong arguments in
favor of the proposed change, and In some kinds
of employments probably It would bi well that
It should 'soon be effected. Aniong miners the
eight hour role has for years been very generally
prevalent, and there are other very laborious and
exhausting occupations where IL might. be Judic
iously Introduced. But whenever the physical
needs of the workman do not call idtr such a re
form, let it be deferred until a more convenient
season.
Ttat shortening the day's Week would not
lessen the day's wages is an opinion held by
meny,•who therefore ceo nothing but good as
the result to the working clam. That this Is a
finger, we think It Is evident enough, unless It
Is claimed that as much work can be done In
eight hours as In ten. There . Is no reason
why the employer can afford to pay more 13r the
bushel of corn, or ton of iron, or thousand of
brick, which is produced by men working eaght
heirs than If thry work ten; and If they produce
a less amount the wages for the day will be
proportionately less. As well might it be ex
pected that by lying Idle one week en each
month a man could earn as mach as by constant
employment, as that two hours per day less
;vont would not reduce his wages by one fifth;
or that, If a manufactnring cstablishment.were
running on half time, Its employees should re
ceive full pay. So that unless the workman is
willing tosubmit to a reduction of wages, and
to forego some of the comforts he has been used
to enjoy, he should not urge the adoption of the
eight hour rule.
A VOICE FROM MOBILE.
We publish to-day a letter from Mobile on the
subject of extending the right of suffrage to the
freedmen of the South, which contains as much
ecund sense as anything we have seen. "This
let er." says the Philadelphia .P rag, "Is from a
gentleman well known In this city as an active
and influential life long Democrat. Few men
are Les likely to be Influenced In favor o: negro
suffrage by preconceived opinions; but the change
of sentiment produced in his mind by a short In
tercourse with Soothers. Soelety,ls paralleled by
other Instances within our knowledge.." The
Fame paper proceeds to my: "If the sentiment
described by our correspondent Is not essentially
mollified ; If it is clearly shown that the rebels
have learned neither wisdom, patriotism nor the
virtue of submisalon by the teachings of war, and
that their only object, in coming back to the
Union, Is to organize a new Madamss political
warfare against the perpetuity of the Republic,
we apprehend it will be found as difficult for dis
union Senators and Representatives to regain
their cld seats in Congress as It was easy for
them to vacate those positions la 1866-'6l. The
President has given to the people of the South
as opportunity to make amends for past errors
and crimes, by the exhibition of a loyal spirit in
the future. lint if generosity and magnanimity
are to be repaid only by new evidences of treFh. ,
cry and treason, a remedy even for such basePtss
min be applied." Such remarks from the pew .
of Col. FORNET, who 13 supposed to speak the
sentiments of the President, are very significant
and hopeful. The rebels and copperheade may
yet discover that they have been a little preen cup
teens In supposing that they were to hare every
thing their own way In the work, of reconstruct
tion.
The Atlantic Telegraph.
lie Inndon ne,es gays that since the Great
Eastern has been moved from Sheerness to the
Sore, all the final arrangements for her great un
dertaking had been pushml forward to the ut
most. The massive shore cud of the cable—
twenty Eve milts In length—was about to be
cent to Vs - Is:nil. and would be submerged from
a special steamer on the loth of July. The Times
add.s
"The paying.ont machine is being fined it on
hoard the flap, and the leading tough has also
been completed alone the do k. This latter Is a
plain timber frame, supporting a semi-circular
trough of Icon, down which the cable is drawn
to the paying -out machine, the friction of Its
passa,cosnalclng to keep It 'taut,' and obviate
all chance of 'kinks' entering the mathiee. Ail
three tanks containing the cable have now been
completely filled with water, and the wire, In
fact, is as much submerged now as It will be at
the bottom of the Atlantic—with this difference,
that the prtc•ure of the Immense depths of the
ocean will materially benrbve the condition of
the cable by the compression of the gnaw per
cha. In these three tanks the tem peratarm sod
quantity of water arc kept precisely equal, and
a series of electrical teas have been
a for the teat three days, and will be con
tireed for five days 'more, In order, from
the resells cf all, to obtain a standard of en] .t
the condition of the cable should be while pay
ing cosi. The contents of the three tanks—that
Is, the entire length of two thousand, five hurt •
dred miles of cable—have now beet coupled up,
and signals are sent through morning and era
sing:. These signals show the Insolation and
conductivity of the wire to be almost absolutely
perfect, even In an electrical sense. Thus, even
with the rough Instruments, a message of four
word, was cent threogla yesterday In a minute
anda quarter. The company, however, believe
they have succeeded In designing instruments
which can more than double this rate of signal
ling. Ilnt even taking the four words in a min
ute as a fair standard, the yield of pnfit from
each a wire at the rate of two pounds per word,
which we believe la to be the charge, would be
immense, and, allowing for repeata and service
signals, amount to more thee a mllliem annually.
Certainly all that science and skill can do has
been done for the cable, and everything now d.
pends on moderately fair weather for the voy
age.. If that additional good fortune should
only be vouchsafed to the undertaking, hourly
communication with the moat distant regions of
North Am er7ca may be eonddently looked for
on the 28th of July next."
