EVENING BULLETIN. FRIDAY, MARCH SO. 1866. THE EIGHT-HOER LAW. The House of Representatives of the State yesterday passed what is known - as the eight-hour bill, and that brilliant enactment now only awaits the favorable action of the Senate, and the signature of the Governor, to become a law. The bill was considerably amended before its final passage in the House, and some of the amendments look as though they had been proposed in a spirit, of wag gishness, or for the purpose of making the measure appear ridiculous, as it really is. The bill, as originally re ported, declared eight hours to be a day's labor in all eotton, woolen, silk, paper, bagging, flax and other factories and workshops. Farmers and farm laborers were ex cluded from the operation of the bill, while lumbermen were ineluded in its provisions. The conclusion, therefore, is that farmers and farm laborers either have no need of recreation or time for mental culture, or that the eeCuring of ** - r,t,i 2 ,a at harvest time and the feeding of stock when the cattle are hungry, are of more importance than mental culture and healthful recreation are to the AT,Mer. We de Dot see why the same rule should not apply in some branches of industry that are not excluded from the action of the bill, and if it is right to allow farmers to work as many hours as they please, why not. grant the weaver or theloundryman the same privilege? But perhaps the greatest absurdity of the many absurdities of the bill was the including of lumbermen among the classes who were to be restricted to eight hours labor a day. These hardy men spend the winter months among the forests of the State, where they fell tim ber, make it up into rafts when oppor tunity offers, and await the coming of the spring freshets to float them to a market. When the floods come, every minute of time is precious to them, and they must seize every favorable oppor. tunity to secure the safety and the speedy transit of their property. A large portion of the year they are unemployed and they have more time for recreation than they de sire. We can fancy the laugh of deris ion with which the hardy lumberman would hear of a legislative enactment that would tie up his raft when the day was eight hours spent, and leave him high and dry with.his logs,before he had %Yot, them half-Way to market. To add to the absurdity of the lumberman feat- ure of the bill, these men generally form Au association for the proWlltion of their business. They divide the toils arid profits of their; enterrzi,rize, silo any interference with 'ft:ern by such legislative action as th tit, of yesterday is as impudent as it 'is silly, A m ° tori to include house servants in '.te bill failed, for the simple reason, we suppose, thatßridget has no vote. This is doing great injustice to the Autocrat of the Kitchen. Biddy is 'now pretty nearly the complete dictator of the house hold, enjoying as part of her prerogative the right to snub the lady of the house, derange the domestic economy and squander the means of the family at will. The eight-hour law would have been the ultimate feather in Biddy's cap. She would have been relieved from duty about two P. M., and the lady of the mansion could have tried her hand at practicing housewifery by cooking din per and supper and attending to thedoor bell, while the kitchen cabinet was keeping high state at home, or enjoying itself abroad. ; We have no patience gravely to dis cuss this absurd bill. It means nothing • because it cannot be put into practical operation, and all. who voted for it must know that it is impracticable. It has, however, one serious feature. It was carried through the House as a bid for votes among the working-classes. The community pays large sums of money annually for the purpose of educating all classes and thus fitting them to be No. 618 Market Street, BENNETT & CO In the passagesabove quoted, the Pre sident advocates the bad principle that cure is better than prevention, in oppo sition to the contrary and better princi ple of Congress:that prevention is better than cure. Congress seeks to prevent wrong and injustice to a feeble race, while Mr. Johnson prefers to wait until the wrong has been done, and then to trust to whoever may chance to be in power to punish it. Between two such alternatives, the people of this country will not hesitate to choose. Congress haS done nobly in, seeking to secure to the lately emancipated race, as well as to the oppressed white class at the South, the fullest advantages which result from the victory of the Union arms over the forces of the Rebellion. They seek to lock the door safely before the steed is stolen, and not to wait until the interests and liberties of those who need their succor and encouragement have been jeopardized or destroyed by those who have so long been accustomed to al/Rover them. Mr. Johnson, appa rently without intending it, concedes the whole position to Congress, when he Confesses the possibility of a future need for its interposition in behalf of these people. If the need does not arise,— and Congress is certainly as good a judge of lutute chances as the President —the billwill be inoperative and can do no harm. It it does arise, the wisdom of Congress, in providing the remedy in advance, will be abundantly vindi cated. There used to be, out West, a particu lar cut for a swallow-tailed coat, known as the "Claw-hammer Pattern." The peculiarity of the garment consisted in a tendency, of the two caudal termina tions to separate as they descended, with an ungraceful curve inward, which would have been the death of Brummel at first sight. It was awkward, ugly and very unbecoming, and could only have been introduced with the earliest pioneers in the march of that wing of civilization which appertains to the adorning of the outward man. There is a well-founded tradition that when President Johnson practiced. the sarto rial profession in Tennessee he unfortu nately adopted this particular pattern. His customers did not like it; their wives scolded at its ugliness; their sweet-hearts poked fun at its awk ward ness;their neighbors, arrayed in neat-fit ting garments, scoffed and jested at them, but Andrew was inflexible. The "Claw-, hammer" was his chosen pattern, and this modern Procrustes insisted upon its adoption by his patrons, because he liked it. Old ,or young, short or tall, fat or lean, straight or crooked, all were alike to hitt', "Claw-haramer orsleath !" was his motto, with a strong preference for "Claw-banmer," 0 - 51 ' a his point, el rather bt, wo points, for a while,and luen his customers rebelled and went to his rival in trade, who believed that there were other opinions in matters of taste beside his own. We understand that the Johnson "Claw-hammer" coat is still extant in Tennessee, probably because neither the original victims of the obstinate artist nor their sons, nor their sons's sons, could ever summon up courage enough to wear the coat out. ,come goodtcitizens mid intelligent voters. If such .sops as this most foolish of laws -Call be acceptable to any considerable dass of the voting population, it may gvell be•questioned whether our system ,of common -schools is accomplishing all that was expected of it • PREVENTION ANI CURE. It is a singular feature in Mr. John son's labored argument against the Civil Rights Bill, that he, no less than three' times, e,dmits the right of Con gress to pass such a bill. He first asserts that : "Slavery has been abolished, nor is it likely there will be, any attempt to renew-it by the people or the States. If, however, any such an at ternpt .should be.made, it will become the duty .of the •General Government to ex ercise acuy and all incidental powers ne cessary and proper to maintain inviolate the ,great law , of .freedom." Later in the documenthe says: "The general statutes regulating the land and naval forces of the United States, the militia and the execution of the laws, are believed to be adequate for every emergency which can occur in time of peace. If it should prove otherwise, Con gress can at any time amend those laws in such a manner as, while subserving the public welfare, not to jeopardize the rights, interests and liberties of the peo ple." And:still again he adds : "I therefore fully recognize the obli gation to protect and defend that class of our people whenever and wherever it shall become necessary and to the full extent compatible with the Constitution of the United States." CLAW-HAN6tMi PATTERNS. We cannot help feeling thaf;, when Mr. Johnson seta up his personal opin ions so strongly against the well-defined views of the ablest men of his own party in both Houses of Congress, his veto messages are being built on the' old "Claw-hammer" pattern. If we are right in our interpretation, we think that there may 'be a most salutary lesson derived from the old garments that are hanging up, dusty, moth-eaten and for gotten, in the gam is of his old neigh bors, because he set up his own will as a law for their consciences and tastes.
