The Boston Patriot, a coOn organ, thus speaks his
federal notions as to the laborers whn are ground down
by hard work and low wages:
"Tna Tax HOUR SYSTEM.—This is making sriiont
inroads on the long established habits of the industrious
portion of our community. It apppears to us not very
judicious, and certainly not very economical."
No men were ever so discreditably imposed upon
by the federalists of 1890 as wore the mechanics.—
Mr. Van Buren bad established the ten hour sys
tem in all the public workshops, but no sooner did the
federal 's2 a day and. roast beef" gentry get the power
than they not only redOced the wages of the mechan
ics, b ut broke up the‘len hour system, so important to
those who work in close rooms or confined air. The
working men have got their eyes open to these im
postal's, and will settle the account.— Ohio States
man.
Ex rLos TOIF.—As an old steamboat, called the Rush
light, used as a tow-boat, in New York harbor, was
passing the foot of Bridge street, Brooklyn, on Wednes
day last, her boiler exploded with a tremendous noise,
part of it striking the oil factory, at the foot of Gold
street, on the next block, tearing a large piece opt of
theluilding, and severely wounding one of the hands;
injuring the captain, and, it is supposed, causing the
death of Ed ward Levine, who has since been missing,
and whose cap was found on board. After the acci
dent, the boat drifted into the duck, and was secured.
TA' PORI BUSINCIIS IN THZ WEST.—The Madison
(Ind.) Banner says:—"Concerning the price of pork,
in which our country subscribers are so deeply inter
ested, we are unable, as yet. to speak definitively. We
have beard of one contract for about 700 hogs, to be de
livered in the city at the following rates:
For Hogs weighing from 150 to 175 lbs., $2 00
" do do 175 to 200 " 225
" do do 200 and upwards, 250
And from all the information we have been able to
obtain, we think the market will not essentially vary
from the above. The Cincinnati Gazette says:—"The
preparations for both packing and slaughtering are more
extensive this year than we have ever before noticed.
This, with the low prices for salt and cooperage, (be
ing for barrels 76c., kegs 30a33, fine salt 20a23, Turks
Island 45n50c.) offers great inducements to those
abroad wishing to make investments in Pork. Tn
candor, however, we must admit that we have no Pork
House that can cut from 3000 to 5000 hogs in one day,
as has been stated in an Alton paper as the capacity of
their Pork Houses, which by the way, we must consid
er all fiction. We have here eight or ten slaughter
ing establishments, that are competent to slaughter
and dress from 8 to 10 000 hogs daily. and some 33
Pork Houses that can dispose of at least 25,000 bogs
per day, if it were necessary."
STEAMBOAT ACCIDENT.—The Louisville Journal
of Wednesday afternoon. says the Beeswing, on her
upward Lip came in collison with the Lancet going
down, at Stewart's island, and gunk in 6 feet water.
The /goat will be raised but the cargo is a total loss.—
The Lancet was also considerably injured.
