    ' B17CHATTAK 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 Nilcs' Register vols. C7 and 08,) ia
which the following passages occur :
JIn Germany, where the currency is purely
roetalic, and the cost of everything is keuco
ed to a hard money standard, a piece of broad
cloth can be manufactured for fifty dollars, the
manufacture of which, in our country from the
expansion of paper currency would cost one
hundred dollars. What is the consequence 1
The foreign French and German manufacturer
imports this cloth into our country and sella 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,
iu 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 subject.
"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 tho home market, and successfully contend
for the markets of the world? 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.
RiDCCE Oca KOXIXAL STANDARD OF PRICES
THKOt onorT the world, asd toc cover oca
COCSTBT WITH BLESSINGS AND BENEFITS.
"The comparative low prices of France
and Germany have afforded such a stimulous
to their manufacture. that they are now rapid'
ly extending themselves, and would obtain
possession, in no small degree, even of the
English home market, if it were xot for
their protective iiTiES. While British man
ufactures are now languishing, those of the
continent are springing into a healthy and
vigorous existence."
Having thus given -nr. Buchanan s own
smooth and polished language, let us sec what
is the meaning of it ia 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 Sir. Buchanan mean by this
language, if he meant anything, but that oar
standard of prices should be reduced to that
of the hard money currency of Enrope J And
what is the European standard then, to which
he desired our own to be reduced 1 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 :
Wage i France. Calais common laborers
7d, per day, with board, and without dwel
ling; Boulogne, od. per day, do. do. ; .Nantes,
cd, per day, without board and without dwel
ling ; Marseilles. 4d.to 7d. per day .with board
and without dwelling. The food ia some dis
tricts "consists in rye bread, soup, made of
-;.-m f ."T Indian corn, now and
oviuc oj.il provisions ana vegetates,
Jy, if ever.butcher's meat." In others "wheat
n bread, soup iua nitt. -.H.tu..
little grease or lard twice a-day, potatoes, or
omer vegetaoics, but seldom butcher's meat."
Sweden. "The daily wages of a skilled ag-
jn.unurisi are iu. ur eu. ; Willie ine unskilled
btam no more than 3d. or 4d. and board
themselves. Agriculturists ia the southern
provinces live, upon salt fish and potatoes ; in
the northern provinces, porridge and rye bread
iorm meir iood."
Bavaria "Laborers are paid at the rale of
chi. per day, in the country." without board.
Belgium. "A skilled artizan may cam, in
Summer, Is. 2. to Is. 5d. ; in Winter, from
lOd. to Is. 2d. ; unskilled, half as much.with-
out board ; live upon rye bread, potatoes, and
ran. Agricultural laborers have less.
Germany. "Dantzig, laborers, 4Jd. to 7d.
jci uj, wimooi ooara; .M.umrurg, id. per
day, without board; Holstein, 7d. per dav,
wunoui ooara.
Netherlands. South Holland laborers, Cd
to 4d.pcr day, with board; .North Holland
-0J. per day, without board ; Antwerp 5d. per
day, do. ; West Flanders, G6s, to 101s. per
per y ear, wun ooara."
Italy. "Trieste laborers, 12d. per day, with
out ooara ; do. td. per day,with board ; Istria
. to iUd. per day, without board : do. 4d. to
O-i. per day, with board ; Lombardy, 4d. to Sd
a day, do ; Genoa, 5d. to 8d. per day, do, and
wituout lodgings Tuscany, Cd. per dav,with
out either."
iaxony. "In 1S37 a mm employed, in his
own loom working very diligently from Mon
day morning to Saturday night, from 5 o'clock
in tho morning until dusk, and even at times
with a lamp, his wife assisting him in finishing
and taking him the work, could not possiblv
cam more than 20 groschen f about CO cents'
per week. Nor could one who had 3 children
aged 12 years and upwards, all working at the
loom as well as himself, with his wife employ
vi uomg up me wors, earn in tnc whole nioro
than $1 weekly."
These are facts which speak for themselves
This is the doctrino of James Buchanan, in
IS 40. Ten cents Aa about the average stand
ard of European labor. And it ia to thi
standard he wished ours to be reduced. How
do you like it, yo honest laboring men of

eat Air-Tight Self-Sealing Cans and Jars, for
Preserving Fresh Fruits, &c This invention for
which a patent has been obtained, commends it
self to the attention of Housekeepers 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 are constructed with a chan
nel around the mouth, nerr the top, 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 wetrxary to heat the
eov,r slightly, atui pri tt into place. It may be
opened with as much ease as it is closed, by slight
ly warming the top. The ordinary tin cans, used
for the same purpose for which this is intended
cannot be closed, as is well known without the aid
of a tinnsr; are difficult to open, and are generally
so much injured iu opening aa to be unless for
future service.
By this simple contrivance, the process of her
metical sealing is placed conveniently . within the
