How Pro aisle Protect Lobor. Our readers will recollect that a few days ago we ended a controversy with.the Gazette on the subject of Protection, in which we proved,(we think) that there can be no protection to Ameri, can laborers while the capitalists have the power to import laborers from abroad. The Washington Union has an article on the subject which we copy, as•itt lays bare the folly of the protective theory: The gierit argument addressed by the manufac turers to the laboring people of the United States to enlist them in favor of a high tariff is, that it is the only means by which American .labor can be protected against the competition of foreign labor. How far this system is carried out, and haw effec tually American labor is protected by high tariffs, may be seen from the following extract, which we copy from a letter written from Lowell by a cor- respondent of the New York Herald, The writer says: "The.wages of female operatives in the cotton factories were reduced about 25 per cent, a year ago, which of course, by diminishing the means of the operatives, has seriously affected the retail trade of Lowell. In consequence of the reduction of wages last year, many of the American females left the mills, and this year it has been found difficult to supply the rnanufactories.with hands, as formerly, from New England; consequently, to fill up the vacancies, the Irish emigrant population has been resorted to, and probably one fouth of the nine thousand female operatives now in the mills at Lowell are Irish. The number of male opera tives is over four thousand, of whom a still great er proportion are Irish and other foreigners.' Every intelligent person, at all acquainted with the state of things at Lowell, and in other large manufacturing towns of the East, knows that the statement which we have copied above is literally true. The policy of the manufacturers has con, stantly been to reduce the wages of the operatives and, as the American operatives are driven off, to supply their places with operatives imported di. redly from Europe, or the neighboring British provinces. This reduction of wages is effected in two ways: one of which is by direct reduction of the amount, and the next by requiring each girl to attend an additional number of looms, by which a greater quantity of cloth is produced without an increase of wages. This system has unquestiona bly driven away thousands of American girls' whose places have been supplied by the Irish, by operatives directly imported from England, end by girls procured in New Brunswick and Canada. And this is the way the American laborer is pro- tected by the manufacturing capitalist, who is eter• Bally demanding of hie government the privilege of plundering the great mass of the American peo ple under the form of high duties upon foreign importations, which, of comae, enables him to compel the consumer to pay a higher price for the domestic articles coming in competition with ar ticles imported from abroad. Let this system of policy advocated by the manufacturers and the Whig party continue in force fly years longer in this country, and the American laborers will be driven from employment in our factories and for ges, and their places supplied by foreigners, or they will be reduced to a condition as helpless end deplorable as the " paupers of Europe." The best protection for labor is that policy which secures the markets of the world for those commodities which American labor and capital can produce cheaper than other nations. That system of po licy stimulates production, and thus generates a demand for labor in pursuits in which it will be most profitable, securing to it, of course, higher rewards. Both the laborer and consumer are ben efitted by suctia policy; while none but the capi talist derives benefit from the miscalled protective system, which is but another name for depredation and piracy, under the form of law, upon the labor ing and conauming masses. Poor Solitmus Roaring i The Secretary of the Interior exhibits the true character of hie mind in all his transactions, wheth er of a business or political nature. He is unques tionably an' unprincipled man. The Washington Union lately exposed a rascally transaction of ?dr. Ems°, wherein he undertook to barter away a public office for a dwelling house. The acts are these, as related In the New York Globe: Mr. Ew ing being a member of the whit; Cabinet, was desi rous of procuring a house for his residence during the term of the Administration. He applied to Mr Douglass, who had one of the style and convenience suitable to Mr. Ewing's taste. At the ,first inter view, no price of rent was agreed upon, nor does it appear that any sum was mentioned. A day or two subsequent, Ewing sent a person to Mr. Douglass, who suggested the policy of putting the house at a low rent, expressing the opinion, that if Mr. D. was liberal, ho would probably be appointed to the office of Public Gardener, in place of the celebrated Jemmy Maher, appointed by Getters! Jackson. This hint had the desired effect, and Mr. Douglass agreed to let Ewing the house at nearly half the rent which had previously been given for it, with the un- derstanding that he was to be made Public Gardner. Ewing moved into the house and took possession. Douglass waited several weeks without obtaining the garden keys, and thinking there was some deceit and duplicity in the case, applied to the "Secretary of the Home Department",for the fulfillment of his pledge. Ewing prevaricated—assured Mr. D. that Maher should be tumid out, and told him to procure letters of recommendation from certain per sona whom hen:tamed. Thus matters stood until the 7th of July, when Ewing sent Douglass a note in forming him thatfie could not remove Maher until alter the meeting of Congress. Thin satisfied Don. glass that Ewing only intended to pri , a hint off until ho obtained a lease ef'the house, iihd then refuse him the office of °bile Gardener.' Mr. D. then withdrew his appP,cation, and refused to give Ewing a lease of the t.ousa. Wosseu Irrocaarra.—The Spirit er the Times mentions ,- the fact of a couple in Bratsklyn, N.

In return.l send you a 810, on this Bank, new amiss, B. 3029. I hope you will refuse to receive any of the old emission, under any circumstances. Very truly, yours, W. TOWNSEND, Cashier. Messrs. W. A. Hill & Co., Pittsburgh. Thousands of dollars of the " old emission," are in the hands'of the people. The Bank refuses to redeem them. Thus innocent people are made to suffer on account of the carelessness of the Cashier, and the dishonesty of the thief. Is there a remedy We see none that is at all practicable. The Ger mantown Telegraph says : Every holder of one of its notes—whether a five, ten, twenty, fifty, or of H larger denomination—wherever his residence may ' be_finding that business men, the banks and the brokers all refuse his money,—is forced to go to West Chester, with his witnesses, or evidence, to prove that he is et honest man and came honestly by the note he afters for redemption—and then it is for the bank to decide whether the proof that be was not in some way a party to the robbery, is suffi cient I After all this trouble and expense in offering the note for redemption at the counter of the Bank, If unsuccessful, his neat recourse is the law, where even a favorable decision is likely to be attended by an expenditure of five times the a mount of his claim upon the Bank I He is thus forced by Mr. cumstances quietly to submit to a wrong which, in the ordinary business intercourse* of life, would be condemned ass a deliberate fraud.
