In the Advocate of Saturday is a we'l
written column under this caption, elici
ted, no doubt, by the "Report" of the
Workingmen's Committee,
In the observations of the editor we find
much to approve; he has written about the
best article on the subject that has
appeared in a Whig paper for some time.
We regard it, upon the whole, as another
evidence of the onward march of DemQ,
cratie principles. The increasing intelli
gence of the producing classes is fast ma
king inroads upon the old established er
rars of eastern aristocracies, which have
been worked into the social fabric of Re
publican America. Time is hurrying us
on to that period when the working man
can call the prodace of his toil his own..
The Editor awards to workingmen a
rank in society equal to that of the mere
consumer, and makes an Effort to prove
that they enjoy that equality now. Would
that we could btiagourselresto believe
but it is too evi lent that in the social world
as now orgenized,the operative is beneath
the employer. The fact, undi-puted by
the most ingeniaus aristocratic theorist,
that the laborer produces every thing. and
gets almost nothing, while the speculator
produces nothing and gets all, is all 50E ,
cient evidence to warrant us in standing by
the assertion we have made.
There is m telt t uth in what the editor
says on the subject of `+an•ikes," but it is
not at all applicable to the ease •of the
working 'nen- in Pittsbur2h and yreinity.
who have turned out for redress of. grievi.,
During a depression when tabor.
is not in demand, a strike would be joju—
rinus to workingmen themselves; but at
this time, we find general revival. of
_bu-.
siness in all branches of industry, which
has created.a demand for the produce of
the laborers. Now, he employer wilt
not, unasked, raise the wages of those in
his employ,. though his profits he increase&
LWatteid. iaw their are- the producers to.
There is no other resort. The instances,
referred to by the editor, of strikes in
England, are when men attempted to raise
their wages above the natural standard
which accounts for their failure; but in the
recent "strikes" in our neighborhorhood,
they ask nothing more than thst awarded
to the.n by the batural laws of supply and
demand, and hence their success.
The editor says:
"It will be seen, we thi..k, that every idler or
non.produ?ing customer i 4 (nut) a 'B% on all who
labor u4efully. In tact consumers are as neees.ary
to a pro.perous and refined co,nnionerealth as pro
ducers."
This statement we consider totally un—
sound. We do not say that because a
man rquandets his wealth in luxurious
living that he is doing a wrong; on the oth
er hand, he benefits the working man by
so doing. But the injury done to society
by those who have wealth to squander,
consists in the means they adopt to obtain
their wealth. Is it possible that we must
recognize a class of men as "necessary to
a prospe'cnii arid refined ::.ommon
wealth" who never produce an article of
benefit to their fellow, men and yet live in
luxury?
'Co ar such doctrine advocated by n
enlightened man, who has a hig'i reputa'
tion for talent, we are confutinikd in won
der. Yet, it is but too true, that the civil
ized world has been practising this theory
1r im time i 'mem trial, absurd and revolt
ing as it may seem. Only think of i : if
there were not men to eat the bread, drink
the wine, and array themsetves is the
cloths and silks, produced by the toil and
sweat of the poor workingman, society can.
not exist ! ! We d i out think it neve=s cry
to say any mor?, upon this subject. but
leave it to the enlightened workingmen
themselves to say whether they will per
mit soch.tl ictriiies to he jdvocile (I in their
midst, without meeting their warn indi;na-
lion.
But we have a word to say on the sub
ject of capital and labor. The Editor in
an attempt to prove that capital is not
the enemy of labor, says:
"wont; 111 , , world have hen vs
it were, i r all its eamme-cial concerti, it Wat , ,
the in entor or dm Improved steam engine, had
not in with Id , Itnn, a wealthy ina , who had
a e o n-, e0e,.0 ) t umt,reirad his plans, .n I sp;rit
to liaza , d iia mre.ey i givn; th-m pride pradt eit op
eration.”
N , ,w, we would ask, is t h e can liti rn of
the wlrkinglien any better since the inven`
ti 974 of the steam elgitte than it - wt 3 he.
fore? In En6l rod, before dis iverie4 in
chemistry ha t eff•cted anything, when the
paver of steom was *unknown, laboring
men got bread to eat, clothes t r wear, and
time for recreation; but h)w is it no v!—
Every arrival of a steam ship tells a horri
b'e ta!e of the wrongs of England's labor`
errs —ilia want, vie-, and pr.-43 . ittrinn
which they are .reduced.
Let us not be misunderstood. We -tin
not wage war upon labor-saving machinery.
but upon the capital which has motinpo
lised it. The Water Works ate a blessing
because they really save the labor of women
and render their task more easy; but it is
not so in otri‘factories, • s the history of all
inventions proves. It cannoChe denied
that every new discovery in machinery has
had the effect of increasing the hours one. ,
bin, reducing the wages of the laborer, and
augmentin4„the profits 'of the non-produ,
citig capitalist.
,If the Editor.of the Ad.
vocate,, whose experienced and intelligonce
are acknowledged, can controvert this, we
invite . him to the task for the edification
of ttrarsuffering r•lass, of shorn he says,
'they fOrm the bone and sinew of the so
cial constitution."

the announcement that Mrs. Wood had
