The people of Pittsburgh, are too slow.
Before putting money into the Allherii.

Wiwi' and. Chicago Railroad. So, too,
months ago, in view of the decision, inevita

interested themselves efficiently in consum

who arcenguged in Mechanical and Minn

law to limit the tinth'nf labor cottstitittingx
legal day's work to eight . hours; 2. A law
relative to , landlords and tenants, which re
peals what is known as the Tioga law; and,
3. A. law authorizing the organization of
co-operative associations, foi the purpose 'of
carrying on any mechanical; mining, mann-
Sacturing or trading business. 1

to him. Iniiii*Wififla a landlord and ten
int`must make a bargain bet Ween them; and
that bargain each must be able to constrain
the othei to tbiiiil. gbil, the body of work
ing men conceivetithese two laws to tie desi
rable, and the Legislature, controlled •by
the Republican majority, and with the co
operation of a Republican ; Governor; gave
1 them what they desired. .The event may
demonstrate, moreover, that the judgment
of the working men upon these subjects is
more accurate than that 'we have formed,
and that these iaws will beef great advan
tage to them without detriment to the natur
al said essential rights of other people. If
such shall prove *be the case, we shall be
glad to correct our view of the matter.
The thirdleiri thetas the law authorizing
the formation of co-operatite
is of great practical consequence; in 'halt
allows a number / of workmen in any trade
or calling, to combine whatever skill and
other resources they have, and thus acquire
and enjoy all the profits accruing from their
industry. Under this plan they become at
thicetapitalists and laborers, and dispens
ing with middle-men, reap all the advan
tages possible in their condition.
What is most essential' in associations of
this description is to secure the co-operation
of one or more individuals who have natu
ral aptitudes for traffic ; that is, who have
the perceptive faculties, rather than the re
flective ones, largely developed ; and those
not in the higher range, but in the lower:
This peculiar development, which makes a
natural trader is essential to success in ordi
riary business pursuits. There are one bun
dredcompetent workmen in each trade to
min:Lan who has the qualities requisite to
conduct aright a traffic in the commodities
pioduced bitheto. Nor is this a slur upon
Working men. In proportion as persons
are Rankers thay_are not traders. Hence,
the poverty of, most philosophers and poets,
until the present age, when the publisher
and bookseller have become their auxiliaries,
_
itidetiabled them to accomplish what they
could not do alone-transmute their
thoughts Into gold or greenbacks.
In addition to these three laws the Legis
lature passed a bill extending the Mechanic's
Lien liatir to. Repairs, and providing for the
speedy- trial of cases where liens have been
tiled. Tife Governor has not yet signed
this bill, but the expectation ii that he will,
and that it will go into operation on the first
of August, according to its terms. This bill
is as essentially just as the law allowing
liens to - workmen and material, men
,con
f n
cerned In the erection of structures, the
propriety of which has never been called in
queztion.. ,
. The enictment of thew laws by the Re
publican party proceeded from its genius
and disposition, which is to nose up and
defend all classes of the population, with
-ouf, regard to traditional opinions, passions
or prejudices. •
THE QOESTION or COLOR is a diminishing
element in, southern politics. The Democ
racy of the Gulf States' lute learned the
need :or a policy of conciliation in their
detainks with the newly enfranchised race,
and have come to regard a fusion with the
eolotcd voters as not only practicable but
as already in many qtmiters an accomplish
ed fact. They are shrewd enough to per
ceive that, in opposition to. Northern loyal
ty, if it is backed up by tile hearty accord
of' the Southern freedmen, they Jutve -1011
even the ghost of.a chance for success in the
Presidential canyon. -1491 et tlontthte be:; ''

expression of yesterday that it would luive
been better that the other articles should

capeishould have been left for Ross, whol
will now insist that he would have sus-'
tained the first article. His pledge to this
effect" stands uncontradieteci, while • the
chance to test his sincerity is gone forever.
No one doubts that he would have violated
his engagement in thai regard, as concern
ing the eleventh also, but the complete
treacheiy is left among the,probabilities,
instead of the certainties where we should
have preferred it. Beyond this special con
sideration, Senators:must also see that they
gain nothing upon S general view of the
situation,. On the contrary, they are ex
poied to the ' suspicion of a demoralization
entirely inconsistent with the ostensible
nity,of the proceedings, or with the Claim
of an effective political organization,'
THERE are rumors of the President's in
tention to proclaim a universal amnesty at
an early day. Such an action will go far to
confirm the prevalent suspicions that the
Presidential canvass in the South •is to be
constructed by the Democracy on the basis
of the white vote alone. Strengthening this
class will be an effective step in the pro
gramme fora disfrahchisement of the blacks.
put can Joirssos force the Democracy to
accept lus idea of a white man's elevation'?
A Very powerffil interest is at work in the
paity to secure the acknowledgment and
elevation of the black element, instead o
discarding and denouncing it. In fact,
that party stands in a quandary
at the forks of two roads, one of which
leads to equal suffrage and CHASE for their
candidate, while Mn. -Tonxsos invites
them to follow the "white man's party!'
and himself along the other. The em
barrassment is likely to end in a prefeience
for the first policy, while Mn. ChAsE's pros
pects as a candidate will depend upon cir
cumstances.

Washington Topics and Gossip.
13Peeilils;Zof Wednesday say: The abdica- I
Searetary,Shinten,-.and„ita-(xnuiet
quetices was the principal topic of conver
tuition about the Capital this morning. A
report was current that ad interim Thomis,
who has regularly attended Cabinet meet
ings, had taken possession of the War
Office. ' This was incorrect, however, for at
half-past eleven' o'clock everything about
the War Department was atatu quo, as
left last night by Mr. Stanton, and General
Thoroas had not made his appearance.
General ToWnsend was in charge, and Ge
neral Pelouzee was at his - accustomed desk
in the Secretary's outer office. It is be
lieved that the Senate will take an early oc
casion to act upon the nomination of Gen
eral Schofield and other Important nomimir
tions now before it. When a new Secret&
ry goes in it is probable there will be = a '
number of changes in personnel-of milita t
ry officers on duty in the War 'Office. - • '•
_lt is known that the *President has-been
advised both by his counsel and bypromi
nent .Demoeratio' politicians, since his as
quittid, to aetiluring the-. summer and fall.
with great .cantion. and it, is believed he.
,not at. present .Indulra -in, tiny very

General Gnud- has , advised .the -Senators
..to oonfirm Generatkiehofieldat encase Sec
tary of War. The. Military Comnidtee will
recominend d, 'and the, nomination. will
probably be called up for action., , •
The revision of the revenue bill / which
bad been made the special, order for one
day was postponed. on motion of 'Mr.
Schenck. he opinion of the Committee
has beerithat this bill could be - finished •in
three or four weeks, but the more general
sentiment now seems to be that it will. taire
from six weeks to two months in the House,
and little if any less time in the Senate, and
should this seem likely to be the case after
it has been taken up, it will probably be'
postponed until next winter.
Notice was given that on Monday next a
motion would be made to suspend the rules
to fix some future time to oonsider the
river and harbor 'bill in Committee of the

Later dispatches say: Mr. — 7ohnson's
friends are still crowding to the White
House to congratulate him. He takes the
acquittal very coolly, having been aware
of the result for some weeks. General
Thomas will act as Secretary of War ad
interim, and General Schofield will be ap
pointed Secretary and 'confirmed in a few
days, it is thought.
The President has• notified. Stanton that
'his note relinquishing the office will not be
officially noticed. This means that a full
resignation is desirable. Mr. Stanton will
remain in Washington until General SCho
field is confirmed as:Secretary of War.
Butler's Investigation is to proceed - regu
larly. It is quite probable that Wooley will
make some disclosures as he is tired of im
prisonment and has agreed to answer most
of the questions propounded.
General Townsend has charge of the War
Department, as General Thomas is some
what unwell., -
Mr. Stevens says he will not offer any
new article of impeachment, but it is proba
ble that Butler and Bontwell will do so
about ten days hence, The people are glad
the contest is over, and it is hoped that
Congress will now go to work in good
earnest and finish up its legislative bu,si
ness. All but Fessenden will vote with the
Republicans on bills in future. -He has
gone over to the Democrats.
A STRAW ON 'run STREAM. —Chief Justice
Chase, imMediately on resuming his seat
after taking the verdict in the Impeachment
trial, wrote upon a blank card, and sent it
to a gentleman on the floor of the Senate,
whom he had more than once assured du
ring the week that the President would be
acquitted. The card bore but a . , single
word; and that, for greater decorum, was in
disguise. That word was the exultant use
of the French exclamation of Voila I If
this is doubted we can prove it. —Wiße`a
