By reference to our advertising columns, it will be seen that Peter Snyder, of Monroe coutjj ly, Joseph Weaver, of Lower Saucon, and Peter Bcllis, of Eastou, offer themselves respectively, as Independent Candidates for Assembly, at the election on the second Tuesday in October. We aro well acquainted with each of these gentlemen, and are proud in being able to re commend them to the support of the free and untrammelled voters of Northampton and Mon roe. Mr. Snyder is one of the most popular men in the District, and was elected, last year, over his competitor on the Delegate Ticket. His majority from all we can hear will be lar ger this fall. Mr. Weaver was formerly Register of North ampton, while Monroe yet formed a part of it, and is personally known to a large portion of the citizens.

Thus the white Pennsylvania laborer sees that in order to keep his work, he must come down to the slave labor and slave pay of Vir ginia, and be content with his peck of corn a week and bacon, with no cup of tea at night, nor molasses in his water. A black ironwork er is maintained at a cost of S 120 per year, in Virginia, while the while laborer of Pennsylva nia earns from the iron master, $300 a year. Now slave labor is not going lo rise, but to save the business, white Pennsylvania labor must come down. The iron maker of Pennsylvania must live on tho coarse bread of the Swedes, and the cheap and scanty food of European iron makers, if they would keep the trade; and unless they do this, the slave iron makers, alone, will be able to keep the field.
