    Conversations with PreiUoat Johnson.
A Washington correspondent ol tlra St.
Louis Democrat says: :
It is but a short time since o distinguished
senator called upon the President. 'A, delega
tion of conservatives had just left him. burn
ing to the senator he said : “ I wonder if-those
person’s who but now passed out imagine’ that
I forget the power and the party to «hioh I
owe my elevation. There waa not a , man in
the delegation that wouldn’t have united in
offering a reward for my scalp a few years
ago, and- now the/ talk to me aadf i I/rowed
everything to them- I guess they’ll find I
have a memory.” ’ V •
Again. A well-known editor of a prominent
northern journal said to the President! ’’ the
Democracy say you will yet be found with
with them. That you have always been a
good Democrat, and will always so remain.”
“Do they f” responded Mr. 'Johnson.—
“ Well, sir, you are ut liberty to tell all such
gentlemen that while, as President, t shall
endeavor to drop any partisan charncier, I
certainly am nut prepared to do more than
pray tor those bo deepitefully use me. I

Strang* Scene in a House of .Mourning—
A Dead -Man Cokes to Lir« ir - The St. Louis
Republican, of the 30th, has thq.followi.ig:
John Redman, a colored-man, died (as was
supposed) at an early hour yesterday morning,
at bis residence over the grocery store, on the
north-east corner of Franklin and
Twelfth street. A coffin and a shroud were
procured, and the colored corpse,.after 'being
washed, shaved and/jdressed in/the burial
clothes, wds laid ont in the coffin. While his
bereaved wife was wringing her tears-out of • a
bandanna handkerchief, and numerous friends,
“mute with grief)" were sitting around the
dead body, talking about what a good man he
was, Ur. Redman suddenly raised himself bolt
upright in bis coffin, with the majesty of death
in his cold face. ' t
Moving his not entirely sightless Orbs around
upon the company of mourners, his olay lips
began to chatter some unintelligible-stuff about
the other world. The result of this hideous
performance waste upset the whole'assemblage
with suddph horror, the female friends fainting
anditomhlinginto each others arms at the sight
of tne ghost, the men themselves -iSteing in,
and with dilated eyes rushing huro-dly ' out of
the room. Mrs. Redman, the distressed widow,
was among the number who fainted. W hen
she came to she ran out of the rdom nod out
of the house, and nothing t-oold to
return during the day, notwithstanding she
was -enured that her hu«band had come to be
eonr-cious, and that the doctor ihoOghi he might

The moderate prices at which they are sold,

It A 3 OB AND CAPITAL,
The conflict between organized Employ
ment and semi-organized Labor, cropping out
in the “ strikes” prevailing in the districts
where Capital is centered for mining and man
ufacturing purposes ; and in the “ Eight honr
movement” now being agitated in every city
in the North, —is not born of any antagonism
existing between Labor and Capital; for there
is no disagreement between them. Their in
terests are equal and identical.
Why, then, should there be a conflict; be
tween Corporations and their employees t It
is a question not to be answered fully in a
brief newspaper article. But we propose to
look at the facta candidly, and make’ partial an
swer as to why this unnatural conflict should
r->ge ; —premising that being practically allied
with Labor, we shall endeavor to remember
the peculiar interests of those who work for a
living.
The concentration of Capital in the bands of
a few, with exclusive privileges granted by
legislative enactment, is a great power. ' At
best-exclusive privileges beget sosial and polit
cal discontent, because with all the gene£kl
and special benefit arising from the anion of
surplus means, by the development of resour
ces, the division of labor, and the creation -of
centers of trade, evils ds necessarily result.
Necessarily, because while men are selfish and
cold, their counsels will ignore the interests of
the many. Bat these evils are not peculiar to
business corporations. There are men who
cannot see beyond the imaginary boundary of
their-church corporation ; others cannot see
beyond the limits of their borough, county, pr.
State—the imaginary- lines constituting their t
respective-bounds being opaque.
Yet we do not regard either churches, bor
oughs, counties, and' States, ns productive of
discontent that can be avoided. AH these, be
ing endowed with exclusive privileges, in same
sort, are productive of far more good than'evil.
And we most assuredly regard business cor
porations as public benefits, entirely necessary
to the country's growth and prosperity.
Yet exclusive privileges foster Monopolies;
and Monopolies are heartless and grasping in
tnsny oases. Well, are not individuals -also
heartless and grasping ? And which is hard
er to bear—the tyranpy of one man, or the
tyranny of a stock Company ? »
While we do reprehend the practice of redu
cing the wages of labor to the minimum, we
see no evidence that Capital has combined to
oppress Labor. The wrong lies in the failure
of great Companies to 'discriminate between
high and , low prices of 'subsistence in fixing
the rate of hire paid. And the instances are
painfully few in which prosperous Companies
have followed the markets up, and voluntarily
raised the wages of their employees to corres
pond with the increased cost of supporting the
families of workingmen. This wrong has been
the fruitful cause of “ strikes” in all time. It
has been a heavy, an inexcusable oppression;
and how inexpressibly humiliating most It be
to a powerful Company to do justice by com
pulsion ? For strikes growing out of an injus
tice of this nature commonly result in a forced
hiving of that which the employer should have
(given without solicitation.'’
■ Ws are no believer in strikes, as a role; the
exceptional ones just mentioned seemed to be
the last resort of neglected labor, and were jus
tillable. But the rule is that strikes are the
weapons of caprice and ungoverned paesion ;
often degenerating into futile spite actions, and
damaging to their abettors therefore. Nor are
we oblivious of the fact that many strikes are
set on foot and fanned by the breath of dema
gogues. And for these reasons tbe outside
working public hsvs no sympthy with move
ments which smack more of turbulence and
unreason than of indignation at wrong unbear
able. 1
W e have said that there is no natural antag
onism between Labor and Capital. Tbe appa
rent disagreement comes by mutual misappre
hension. It is.useless to deny that working
men are inclined to regard organized Capital
as an enemy, seeking, and taking, opportunity
to procure labor at the least cost. Op this oth
er hand, it is no lees apparent that Corporations
employing many hands are in the habit of re
garding laboring men as seeking, and taking,
opportunity to perform the least amount of la-,
bor for their wages, be, tbe same more or less.
We regret to say that each party has given
tbe other some cause for these mutually injuri
ous estimates of each other. That is to say;
Corporations have noli always been considerate
and just in-their-dealings with their.employees
—just as workingmen hare not always studied
the interests of their employers. Hence, the
unnatural conflict between them; a conflict
that is a positive damage to both. '*
To remedy this evil is to abolish “ strikes,"
and organize Labor and Capital on the Mutual
Protective system. But bow shall it be done f
By a full, frank, and free conference ‘of the
parties, or not at all. The allegation on tbe
part of the Corporation, that •• if men can’t
work for its rate of wages they can go else
where," may be true enough ; but if that par
ticular Company pays less for the same’kind of
labor than others, tbe allegation involves very
probable hardship to the poor man with a big
family; and it savors of forced labor.' So long

Of course this is not intended to be an ex
haustive discussion of the subject; but if ire
have induced thought in those more near); con
earned it ie all we intended. We defer rem*
arks upon the Eight-Hoar Movement.till u fu-
ture time,
About six years ago Jobs Brown, wi h an
arm; of 16 men, invaded the State of Virginia
with the avowed purpose to free the slaves in
that State. He was captured, and bis force
hunted through the free States like wolves.
John Brown, and the few of bis part; who
were caught, were put to death. And the De
moc-ra oy shouted - “ Amen I" Indeed,' the
Republicans joined in the response.
In 1861 Jefferson Davis, with sundry other
leading “ Democrats," levied war against the
Constitution stud the Government thereunder;
and after taking possession of all the public
property ip the South, deliberately invaded the
sovereign States of Maryland, Pennsylvania,
Ohio, Indians, and Illinois,'destroying much
property and draping every Northern neigh
borhood in mourning.
Jefferson Davis, and many qf his -crew, are
captives in our bands, shorn of’ power and
prestige, as was John Brown in their bands.
It is proposed to' try J. D., and bis fellow
rebels, for treason. If convicted the American
people demand that they ; shall be condignly
punished. If not so punished, abolish the gal
lows, and offer a premium for the perpetration
of high crime, but punish the child that steals
a loaf of bread.
But mark it; The “Democracy,” who de
manded the hangipg of John Brown, now ask
for the pardon of Jeff. Davis and bis co-trait
ors ! “Be magnanimous I" say these ‘ demo-
crats/
Magnanimity was at a ruinous discount at
the counter of these political sharpers in 1839.
It depends much upon whose ox is gored.
Ah, yes 1
Gen. Slocum is to be pitied, but Lucian
Robinsonis to be despised. Evidently b party
to tbe great cotton frauds in the West, General
Slocum made for tbe city of refuge for defected
villainy—the “ Democratic” fold v But Lucius,
ever a sturdy beggar for place, seeks to betray
tbe band that feeds him. We guess it will be
found, when the 7th of November leaves him
to tbe tender mercies of bis new love, defeated
and disgraced, that Lucius required to be bis
own successor, in order to cover up tbe evi
dence of bis connection with tbe State robbers
in New York State.
It is said 'that doctors seldom swallow their
own prescriptions. Mr. Wallace, Chairman of
the “ Democratic 1 ' State Committee, flooded
the State with a last card to the people, in
which be declared that negro suffrage was a
vital issue to be decided at the October election-
Well, Ur. Wallace’s ticket was defeated by a
majority of about 21,000 at that election ; and
Mr. Wallace will now oblige the people of the
State by stating, either that the people have
decided for negro' suffrage, or, by his silence,
admit that be is alu unconscionable liar.
The Jeff. Davis press of this State refuse to
publish the result of the late election in this
State for the information of their readers. It
is a singular fact that each journal states the
case just as it did three days after the election,
and "The State seems to have gone
‘against us by about 6000 majority." Yet each
knows to a certainty that the Republican ma
jority is 20,000. What possesses them to keep
up this abominable lying 7 :
Somebody would do Hall, of the Catskill

[From the Philadelphia Evening Bulletin, Jt/acrh 19.]
We are gratified to hear of tbe con tinned success,
in Hew York, of our townsman, Mr. H. T. Helm
bold, Druggist. His store, next to the Metropolitan
Hotel, is 28 feet front, 230 feet deep, and five stories
is height. It is certainly a grand establishment, and
speaks favorably of the merit of his articles. He re
tains his Office and Labratory in tbi* city, which are
also model establishments of their class, i
. The proprietor has been induced to \tnako this
statement from the fact that bis remedies, although
advertised, are
GENUINE PREPARATIONS,
And, knowing that the intelligent refrain from using
any thing pertaining to Quackery, or the Patent
Medicine order—most of which are prepared by self
styled Doctors, who are too ignorant to read a phy
sician's simplest prescription, much less competent to
prepare pharmaceutical preparations.
THESE PARTIES RESORT
to various means of effecting sales r encfa as copying
parts of advertisements of popular remedies, and
finishing with certificates.
The Science of Medicine stands SIMPLE, FORE,
and MAJESTIC, —having Past for its Basis, Induc
tion for its Pillar, Truth alone for its Capitol.
A WORD OF CAUTIOH.
v Health is most important; and the afflicted should
not use aa advertised medioineJor any remedy, unless
its contents or ingredients areftknown to others be
sides the manufacturer, or untilUhey are satisfied of
the qualifications of the party eo offering.
