' [Conartled for The Agitator.]
in farther efaoidating the proposition that
Education increases tjie productiveness of labor,
it is' with satisfaction that I refer to the wri
tings of..the II(fi- Horace-* Manni one of the
greatest educaWs of bis day. Daring his’offi
"ciat labors a few years ago, in Massachusetts,
jbe opened a correspondence, and availed him
eelf of all opportunities to hold.personal inter
views with tnaiCT of the most practical, saga
cious, and, business men in our"
country, wio f|r many .years bad kept large
npjmbers pf perwms in their employment. His
. .object was to ascertain the. difference in the
■productive ability, where natural capacities
were equal, betvteen the educated and the un
educated between a man or a womnjn whose
‘mind has-been’ awakened to thought, and sup
plied with the rudiments of knowledge by a
good'common school education, and one whose
faculties have never been developed, or aided
'jj» emerging from their original darkness and
torpor by such aij agency. , For this (purpose
’ r ho Conferred with manufacturers of all kinds—
Machinists,, engineers,- railroad contractors, of-'
ii sers. in the army, etc.; classes which have
mgansof detesn|aing\the effects of education
son individuals eaual in their natural abilities
that.othor clasgesldo not possess.
Now many of the most intelligent and vahia
ble-men in tbS-cohntry, in compliance with Mr.
Mann’s examined their books for a se
ries of years, and: ascertained'both the quality
and the amounf of.work performed by persons
’ "in theiremplojftnent,,and the result of the in
vestigation is, qj most astonishing ; superi-
V ority in productive,. power on the part of
.the educated-over the uneducated 'laborer. —
■ The hand is found, to be another hand when
guided by an intelligent mind. Processes
-ore,performed not only more rapidly, but bet
,',ter, when faculty which have been exercised
in early life furnish their assistance. Individ
qals who, withbufjthe aid-of knowledge, would
i have been condemned to perpetual inferiority
of condition, andsj subjected to all the; evils of
■ want «»d poverty! rise to competence! and in
dependence by thp uplifting power of educa
tion. ; In great (establishments, and among
.large bodies of laboring men, Where all ser
vices ere rated according to their pecuniary
- where ihere .are no extrinsic circum
: stances to bind fa inan down to a fixed position
after be has shown a capacity to rise above it
wh.ers, indeed, men pass by each other, ascend
ing oil descending! jn their grades of labor just
as easily and certiinly as particles of water of
different degrees of temperature glide by each
other—under such circumstances it is found,
! naan almost invariable fact, other things being
i equal, thilt.tbose who have been blessed with a
(“good common schtjol education rise to a higher
and higher point in the kinds of Ijibor perform
ed, and also, in t|he rate of wages received,
; rtvhilethe.ignorant!- sink like dregs, and are al
' ways found a» thelbottom.
• Jmnos BL’ MilS, Esq., of Boston, who for
.many years; has been largely connected ' with
cotton-mills, machine shops, and calico-print
ing wbrks,,jn which are' constantly employed
about three thousand persons, and whose opin
ions of the effects jof a common school educa
tion upon a manufacturing population, are the
resultaf-personal lofasetvatiqn, and inquiries,
,and are confined, to the testimony of the over
seers and agents who are brought into
diate'contact with ™b operatives, expresses the
conviction that thp rudiments of a common
school education, are essential to the attainment
of skill and erpeifnees as laborers, or to con
sideration and respect in the civil and social re
-1 itions of life; thtw very few who have not en :
. joyed the advantages of a common school edu
o ition ever'rise above the lowest class of oper-
a ives, andthat thd! labor of .this class, when it
is employed in manufacturing operations which
ir quirt even a' moderate degree of manual or
deiteritf, if unproductive; that a large
Vnijority of and others employed in
situations Which require a high degree of skill
in-particular branches, have made their way
np from- the 'cbn(|iiion ,of common laborers,
With np other aJ vantage over a large propor
tion of those.tht'y pave left behind, than that
-derived frooj a helper education.
In ono establishment forty
five operatives employed, who were nna-'
blc to ivrita their acmes; and twenty-nine, or
-two thirds of this were ; employed in
jthe’lowest dqpaiym&it' with the lowest pay. The
jdiSVrcnce between Hie wages earned by the for-
Ity.iive and the average wages of an equal num
ber of the hotter educated* class, is about twen
ity-seven.per cent.. favor of the latter. The
ill Sureties-between fie wages earned by twenty
nine of the forest Slmte and the same ntmber
in the higher, fa sjwy-six pep cent. Of seven
teen persons 1 fiUine the most. responsible sta
tions, ten greti upign the establishment from
common laborers qjflpprenticeß. One mill con
tained an im jjortafron of sixty-three persons
from Manchester, m! England. Among these
there was sCatce!y|One 'who could read and
write ; and aitßouglfa part of them had been
accustomed tb cotton-mills; yet, either
' from incapacity orpdlenesa, they were unable
to earn-sufficietit to|pay for their subsistence.
The books-show thnl a large proportion of the
' operatives iri the prmt-milU are foreigners, and
.that the common laborers,- as a class, are with
out ahy education; jfnd their average earnings
are about only of those of our Ihw
est classes. This tfigerenoe is easily accounted

Liquors imported'by Udolpbo Wolfe, of New York, wbnae
name h» familiar in this country for the pority of his cele

speaking of the purity of his wines and Liquors, says: “ I
will stake my reputation as a man. my standing as a mer
chant of thirty years’ residence in the City of New York, that
that all the Brandies and wines which I bottle are pare w
imported, and of the best can be relted upon by
every purchaser.” Every bottle h*s the proprietor’s name on
the wax. and anfac simile of hlssignnatnre on the certificate.

Esoauocs Business fob one New York Merchant.— Wea rs
happy to Inform onr fellow citizens that there 7s one place
iu our city whore the physician, apothecary, and country
merchant, can go and purchase pure wines and Liquors, ns
imported, and of the best quality. We do not Intend to give
an elaborate description of this merchant extensive bald
ness. although It will well repay any stronger or citizen Vo
visit Cdolpho Wolfe’s extensive warehouse, Nos. 18,20. and
22 Beaver street, and Noe. 17.19 and 21, Marketfield street.
Hi* atoce of Schnapps on hand ready jot shipment could not
have been less than thirty thousand cases; the'Brandy some
ten. thousand cases—’Vintages of 1836 to 1856; and ten thou
sand bases of Madeira, Sherry and Port Wine, Scotch and
Irish Whiskey. Jamaica and St. Ctolx Rom, some very old
and aqua! to any In this country. He also had three large
cellars, filled with Brandy, wine, 4c.,-In Casks, under Cus
tom House ki*y, ready for bottling. Mr. Wolfe’s sales of
'Schnapps last year amounted to one hundred and eighty
thousand dozen, and we hope that in less than two years be
may be eqally successful bis brandies and wines.
Hia business merits the patronage of every lover of bis
species. Private families who wish pure wines and Liquors
for medical use, should send their orders direct to Mr. Wolfs
until every apothecary in the land make up thefr minds to
discord tkc poisonous stuff from their shelves, and replace it
with Wolfe’a pure vvines and Liquors.
\\*c understand Mr. Wolfe, for the accommodation of small
dealers in the country, puts up assorted coses of wines and
liquors. Such a man, and such a merchant, shooldb© sus
