Senator Wilßon is undoubtedly on the popu lar side, but he is not on the side of a sound political economy or of sound common sense, and his argument, in Which it may fairly be presumed that he puts his best foot foremost, is a moßt inconclusive and unsatisfactory one. It is an argument for class legislation, which is, in its very essence, contrary to the whole spirit of our Republican institutions. While he avows that “capital needs no cham pion,” be argues in favor of creating a class in America with privileges such as capital has never claimed. Capital haß never claimed the right to reduce the amount of its invest ments and, at the same time, to receive the same income from them as before. Capital has siever claimed that the man who embarks half of his fortune in business enterprises shall enjoy the same profits as he who ven tures three-quarters or the whole of It Rut this is precisely- what Senator Wilson’s argu ment- demands for Labor. It pretends to assent that men will do as much or even more work in eight hours than in ten hours, and upon this absurd proposition it is argued that they should therefore be paid the same wages. Granting Mr. Wilson’s premises, the deductions would be fair enough; but who seriously believes this proposition V All ob servation, all experience, all the principles which.govem ffie workings oi human nature flatly-deny the idea. Men do not work, as a rule, because they like to work, but to earn their bread with the least possible amount of the sweat of their brows, and it is foolish to of their daily work fixed and assured, will lizowd the work of ten hours into eight, and we ean see no reason why they should. There has already been experience enough of the eight-hour system to prove that, in the overwhelming majority of instances, men will do so much work in an hour, and no more, and the employer who pays ten hours’ wages aDd .gets eight hours of work for it, simply loses one-fifth of his money and gets no equivalent. Where the mechanic is in industrious and ambitious, he will do as we know has been done in many cases: worn his eight hours, pocket his ten hours'’ pay, and then go off and do two or three hours of job-work by way of amusement and profit, to finish out his day. Where he is not industrious or ambitious, he wall shuffle through his eight hours, draw bis ten hours’ wages, and after a while, call upon Senator Wilson to try another reduction to seven or six hours, for hishay’B work. Senator W ilson has no greater desire for the true elevation of the American mechanic than we have. Our country is full ot honest, substantial, useful citizens, who represent every branch of me chanic craft. We honor and admire them for their intelligence, their hard-won success, their sterling value to the commu nity. What they have achieved has been done wiibout.clasß legislation, by their own bright brains, willing hearts and Bturdy muscles. Their numbers and their influence are con stantly increasing, and they are powerfully felt throughout the whole structure of Ameri can society. The same channels of success are open to-all their fellows, but the chanceß of such success will not be promoted by Senator Wilson’s “experiment." In every department of human labor, with the solitary (exception of the mechanic trades, a day’s work is measured by the amount of business to be done. Home men work six houre, and some sixteen, but they work just so long as the regular business to be dene requires. But Senator Wilson pro posr that, in the ease of a single class, the amount of business to be done shall be mea snred.by the length of time that men like to work. He thus makes one (privileged class m this<conntry, and ail other classes have the right to complain of this discrimination against'them and their interests. An over-worked or under-paid man is an object of sympathy to every one who has ever felt the burden of work or the want of money. JBuf it is by no means certain that, in a country like this, the under-worked or idle man is not in a worse condition, both/for himself and for society, and dc servings till more sympathy. Senator Wilson has touched up his proposed “experi ment” with very rosy tints,but no one knows better than the sagacious Benator from Mas sachusetts that such “experiments” as these mb never be canceled, no matter how com plete #te practical failure may be. The “ex jpertows,’inhj result* m all philosophy ipdi catfcs that it will, in incalculable loss to tbe industrial interests of tbe country,and in an in crease of the deplorable and unnatural hostility which suchagitations as these foster between Labor and Capital. Bnt it will be a miracle of legislative virtue. if any Senator ’Wilsons shall arise with moral courage enough to set the hands back upon the dial of Labor, and lengthen the day which they arc now so ready to abridge because it is popular with the pri. vileged claßß which it favors with such invi dious distinction. If we could believe that the true interests of Labor and Capital were not one and inseparable; if we could see any real benefit to be gained by the mecbaDic by depriving his employer of one fifth of his time; if we could see any justice or solid logic in paying men who will only work eight hours the same wage 9 as are paid to as good or better men who are willing to work ten hours; if we could understand why one class of the people should be singled out for such special legislation; if we believed that there was a possibility of such an un reasonable “experiment” succeeding, or of its berng cancelled when its failure has been demonstrated, we should be glad to take up the side of the question which is evidently the popular one jUBt now, and throw up our caps for Mr. Wilson’s construction of the Eight Hour Law. As it is, we must wait until our paper-maker gives us twenty-five quires for a ream of paper, before we can agree that eight hours’ work are entitled to ten hours’ pay- PICKWICK IN »HB SEN&TE. The Bprague-Abbott difficulty has ended with one of the most ludicrously Pickwickian conclusions to be found in the annals of Washington. Under the manipulation of three grave and reverend Senators, to wit: Sumner, Sherman and Poole, a large plaster was prepared for the wounded honor of “lit tle Spraguey,” as Senator Nye calls him, and Mr. Abbott Mr. Abbott writes a letter to “Spraguey” and wishes to know “distinctly whether you intended to apply any of the above offensive language to myself.” Where upon, “Spraguey,” whose “mongrel puppy and mastiff” story was prefaced with the re mark that he told it ‘ fin answer to the tirade of the Senator from Nevada and the Senator from North Carolina,” replies that the dog story “was written and in manuscript some time before it was delivered to the Senate, and before you participated in the debate, and therefore was not intended to apply to you.” Grotesque as this Pickwickian reply is, it is bolted bodily by Abbott, who is at once satisfied that he had “misconceived the language,” and begs that “Spraguey” wilt think no more about it. We hope that this new Pickwick Club, from Mr. Bumner down to “Spraguey,” will enjoy the broad sneer of contempt which the broad visage of their Uncle Samuel wearß this morning. But “Spraguey” is not, by any means, out of his troubles. Unless Mr. Sumner can again interpose with his Patent Pacificating Plaster,there is yet a spanking in reserve for the remarkable young Senator from Rhode Island. It appears that in his wholesale ti rade against his Providence rivals in trade he undertook to assail the personal courage of Captain FraDds W. Goddard, who replies in the following letter,which will require the ut most exertions oi the Senatorial Pick wick Club to construe in a Pickwickian sense: Tv the Hon. William Sprague , U. S. Senator 'cftnifcH Senato, and abus fufr its privileges in a base and cowardly spirit, yen have in yonr speech of the Bth Inst, charged me with having deserted my post in the hoar of danger, while a member of the First Rhode Island Regiment General Bnrnside having, over his own signa ture. denied the truth of yonr assertions, it re mains for me to prononnee yon before the world, and with a full apprehension of the wordß I use,a liar, a calumniator,and a poltroon. I am, <foc., Fkancis W. Goddard, Late Captain Carbineers, First Rhode Island Regiment Pkovuiekcb, April 24,1869. Belligerent as this sounds, and difficult as it is to imagine how “little Bpraguey” is to get back into Rhode Island without encountering the bold carbineer who thus tweaks his sena torial nose, we have absolute faith in Sum ner’s Patent Plaster, and we expect to hear of a handsome dinner party in Providence, presently, whereat Sprague and Abbott and Nye and Goddard will drink mighty bumpers to Bumner, the great Pacificator.

His friends are greatly relieved by his return, as it was feared he had been fonlly dealt with. FRANCE. Tbe French Navy. The ifoniieur de la Flotte, the organ of the Ministry of Mariae, publishes the following note: "Several journals pretend that great activity prevails in tne French ports, and that several men-of-war have been pnt into a complete state of attack and defence. We are enabled to affirm that this news has no Bort of foundation. The works at theports are following their ordinary conree within the limit of their budgetary re sonrees, and no order for any extraordinary armament has been given. At Cherbourg and Toulon several armor-plated frigates are under going certain Internal modifications necessitated by the change In their artillery. At Brest and Lorient two iron-coated corvettes, recently com pleted, ore proceeding to their regulation trials. It may therefore be seen that nothing in the sitnation of oar ports indicates that any prepara tions for war are being made, as the paragraph published by certain journals would lead the world to snppoße.” A National Tribute to the .Tlomory ot tne First Napoleon. The Emperor Napoleon has addressed the fol lug letter to tbo Minister of Statu • Pi LACK OF THE TuiLBEIES, April 12, 1869. Ifonrieur le Minietre —On the 18tn August next a hundred years will have elapsed since the Emperor Napoleon was born. During that long period many ruins have been accumulated, but the grand figure of Napoleon has remained np standing. It is that which still guides and pro tects us—it Is that which, out of nothing, has made me what I am. To celebrate the centenary date of the birth of the man who called France the great nation be cause he had developed in her those manly vir tues which fonnd empires is for me a sacred duty, in which the entire country will desire to join. In my opinion the be6t way to honor that na tional jubilee is to spread a little comfort among the Emperor’s old companions in arms. The 2,700,000 fraßcs which the Legion of Honor distributes to them every year are insufficient to assure their existence. I have thought that the Coisse des Depots et dee Consignations might be made to distribute larger pensions to those old soldiers by abandon ing to it the credit granted by the Chamber dur ing a number of years, neeessaryfor the recovery of its advances. By that means aid will be effica ciously afforded to glorious misfortunes without in any way modifying the provisions of the Budget. Mydesire is that from the 15th of August next every soldier of the republic and of the First Em pire should receive an annual pension of 250 francs. The legislative body, I have no doubt, will re ceive this proposal with the national feeling by which it is so eminently animated. It will think, as I do, that a period when complaints are made of the progress of scepticism,to reward examples of patriotic devotedness and to recall them to the memory of the younger generations cannot but be of great utility. To awaken grand historical rocolleotions is to encourage faith in the futnre; and to do honor to the memory of great men is to recognize one of the most striking manifestations of the Divine Will. I beg yon to come to an understanding with the Ministers of France and of my household for the preparation of a bill and for its presentation without delay to the legislative body, aftor having taken the opinion ot the Connell of State. Whereupon, Monsieur le Mlnistre, I pray God have yon In His holy keeping. Napoleon. CLARK & EVANS, No. 630 Chestnut Street, OPEN DAY AND EVENING.
