BUCHANAN AND LOW WAGES.
On the 22nd January 1840, Mr. Buchanan
made a speech in the United States Senate,
(Tide Congressional Globe, for Jan. 1840, pp.
135-6, or Niles' Register vols. C7 and 08,) in
which the following passages occnr :
"In Germany, where the currency is purely
metalic, and the cost of everything is reduc
ed to a hard money standard, a piece of broad
cloth can be manufactured for fifty dollars,the
manulacture of which, in our country from the
expansion of paper currency would cost one
hundred dollars. What is the consequence ?
The foreign French and German manufacturer
imports this cloth into our country and sells it
for a hundred. Does not every person per
ceive that the redundancy of our currency is
equal to a premium of one hundred per cent,
in favor of the manufacturer.
"No tarifl of protection, unless it amounted
to prohibition, could counteract these advan
tages in favor of foreign manufactures. 1
would to heaven that I could arouse the atten
tion of every manufacturer ot the nation to
this important snbject.
"What is the reason that, with all these ad
vantages and with the protective duties which
our laws afford to the domestic manufacture of
cotton, we cannot obtain exclusive possession
of the home market, and successfully contend
for the markets of the world 1 It is simply
because we manufacture at the nominal prices
of our own inflated currency, and are compel
led to sell at the real prices of other nations.
KtDlCE OUR KOMIXAL STANDARD OF PRICES
THROl HDOUT THE WORLD, AND YOU COVEK. OIR
COUNTRY WITH BLESSINGS AND BENEFITS. "
"The comparative low prices of France
and Germany have afforded such a stimulotis
to their roanufactures,that they are now rapid
ly extending themselves, and would obtain
possession, in no small degree, even of the
English home market, ip it were not for
their protective duties. While British man
ufactures are now languishing, those of the
continent are springing into a healthy and
vigorous existence."
llaring .thus given 3Ir. Buchanan's own
smooth and polished language, let us sec what
is the meaning of it in plain English, when he
says "reduce our nominal standard of prices
throughout the whole world, and you cover
the country with blessings and benefits."
Now, what did Mr. Buchanan mean by this
language, If he meant anything, but that our
standard of prices should be reduced to that
of the hard money currency of Enropo ? And
what is the European standard then, to which
he desired our own to be reduced 7 Accord
ing to the best authorities on that subject,
Porter's Progress and Wade's History of the
Middle and Working Classes, two recent pub
lication's, containing statistics collected by
the British Government, the standard of pri
ces for labor in Europe, is as follows :
Wages in France. Calais common laborers
7$d, per day, with board, and without dwel
ling ; Boulogne, 5d. per day, do. do. ; .Nantes,
Sd, per day, without board and without dwel
ling ; Marseilles. 4d. to 7d. per day,with board
and without dwelling. The food in some dis
tricts "consists in rye bread, soup made of
millet, cakes made of Indian com, now and
then some salt provisions and vegetables, rare
ly, if ever.butcher's meat." In othcrs,"wheat
en bread, soup made with vegetables, and a
little grease or lard twice a-day, potatoes, or
ther vegetables, but seldom Imthor's ml."
Sweden. "The daily wages of a skilled ag
riculturist are 7d. or bd. ; while the unskilled
obtain no more than 3d. or 4d. and board
themselves. Agriculturists in the southern
provinces live upon salt fish and potatoes ; in
the northern provinces, porridge and rye bread
form their food."
Bavaria. "Laborers are paid at the rale of
8d. per day, in the country," without board.
Belgium. "A skilled artizan may" earn, in
Rummer, Is. 2. to Is. 5d. ; in Winter, from
101. to Is. 2d. ; unskilled, half as much.with
out board ; live upon rye bread, potatoes, and
milk." Agricultural laborers have less.
Germany. "Dantzig, laborers, 4d. to 7d.
per day, without board ; Muhlburg, id. per
day, without board llolstcin, 7d. per day,
without board."
Netherlands. South Holland laborers, 3d.
Jo 4d. per day, with board; North Holland,
20d. per day, without board ; Antwerp 5d. per
day, do.; West Flanders, IMJs, to 104s. per
per year, with board."
Italy "Trieste laborers, 12d. per dy .with
out board ; do. Gd. per day,with board ;"lstria,
8d. to lOd. per day, without board ; do. 4d. to
fid. per day, with board ; Lombardy, 4d. to 8d
a day, do ; Genoa, 5d. to 8d. per dav. doand
without lodgings; Tuscany, Gd. per dav,with
out either."
Saxony. "In 1837 a man employed in his
own loom working very diligently from Mon
day morning to Saturday night, from 5 o'clock
in the morning until dusk, and even at times
with a lamp, his wife assisting him in fiuishing
and taking him the work, could not possibly
earn more than 20 groschen (about CO cents)
per week. Nor could one who had 3 children
aged 12 years and upwards, all workin? at the
loom as well as himself, with his wife employ -
ea aoing up tne work, earn in the whole more
than $1 weekly."
These are facts which speak for themselves.
This is the doctrine of James Buchanan, in
1840. Ten cents is about the average stand
ard of European labor. And it is to this
standard he wished ours to be reduced. How
do you like it, ye honest laboring men of
Pennsylvania ?

wnicn a patent has been obtained, commends it-
seit to tne attention of Honsokecpors and others.
on account of its great simplicity, and the effectu
al manner in which it accomplished a very desi
rable and useful object
The cans and jars aro constructed with a chan
nel around the mouth, nerr the ton. into which
the cover fits loosely. This channel is filled with
a very adhesive cement, prepared for the purpose
and allowed to harden. In order to seal the ves
sel hermetically, it is only necessary to heat the
cover slightly, and press it into place. It may be
opened with as much case as it is closed, by slight
ly warming the top. The ordinary tin cans, usod
for the same purpose for which this is intendod.
cannot be closed, as is well known without the aid
of a tinnsr; are difficult to open, and are generally
so much injured in oponing as to be useless for
future service.
Bv this si mole contrivance, the process of her-
metical sealing is placed conveniently within the
reach of every individual; and fruit, vegetables
and butter (if properly prepared) may be kept,
with their natural flavor unimpaired, tor an in
definite length of time. For sale by
