An Apprentice Wanted.
An apprentice is wanted at this office,
one of good, steady, and industrious flab ,

none other need apply. One from the
country would be prefered.
_Politics for Laboring Alen,
Last week we alluded to the course
taken by James Buchanan, in the United
States Senate, relative to the reduction of
the Poor Mechanic's ;rages ; and we
'said so soon as we could obtain a zepy of
thc. precise words used, we would call
the attention of the laborer and mechanic,
to the policy of the Van Buren dynasty.
We have finally succeeded; and now pre
sent to their consideration, the sentiments
of this Van Buren Senator. They were
part of his arguments when advocating
the Sub-Treasury scheme.
We call the attention of every reflect_
ing mechanic and laboring man, to the
monstrous policy proposed to be carried
out by the reigning party at Washington;
and if they can think otherwise than we
do—that it is calculated to make the rich
richer and the poor poorer; we can only
say we regret the party blindness of such,
as will allow themselves to be the dupes
of cunning knaves any longer. As for
ourself, we openly declare, that when the
I.arty to which we are attached, dare ad
vocate a system so destructive of not only
the means of subsistence, but in very
truth, the liberty of our brother mechanics,
we will openly and fearlessly denounce
the party, its measures and its men.
I We shall make but a few shod extracts,
yet enough, to show the "elowen foo';"
and if hereafter we can find the daily la
borer--the manufacturer, or mechanic,
that seconds such base attempts to bring
them, on the level, with the oppressed
and degraded, who serve the tyrants of
foreign countries, we shall exclaim in
the very bitterness of heart, "God sate,
the Commonwealth;" for soon she will be
the tool of demagogues and tyrants; and
her most honest, most industrious and
most deserving sons, will be the cring- i
ing dependents on the haughty nod of the
pimps and panders to the wealthy mono
polisers.
This is i.o idle vision of a distempered
'brain. It i• based upon the safest of all
teachers—the history of the past—if not!
In our own, In other countries. I.et that
day come, which Mr. Buchanan says will
" corer o a r coo/Wry with tle,minks," and
It est assured tellow•working 'nen , its bless
ling will be a cup of the bitti!rest curses
land sorest thisloi tunes that was ever held
to the lips of the daily laborer on the
earthen the industrious toiler,ln the:work
shop. Before we pt ocecd further let us
see what he says.—Hear hint; and look
at the result lie would bring on you.
itlit Germany, where the currency is pure 1
ly metallic, and the cost of every thing
is reduced to a hard money standard, a
piece of broad-cloth can be manulactur
, ed for fifty dollars—the manfacture of
which, in our country, from the exi an ,
sion of paper currency, would cost one
hundred dollars.
"The foreign manufacturer goes hoine,!
PCIICHA'ES Ina Lifson, his wool, and!
all other articles which enter into his
manufacture, at lIALF THEIR cosT IN'
THIS COUNTRY, and again returns to in•
undate us, &c."
"Articles are manufactured in France and
Germany for one-hay of their actual
cost in this country."
"What is the reason that, with all these
advantages, and with the protective du
ties which our laws afliird, to the do-'
mcstic manufacturer ci cotton, we can-!
not obtain exclusive possession of the
home market, and successfully contend
for the markets of the world? It is
simply because we manufacture at t:.e
nomnal prices of our own inflated cur
rency, and are compelled to sell at the
real prices of other nations. Reduce
our nr , minul to the real standard prices,
throughout the world, and you cover
our country with blessings and bene
fits."
Here then it is written, so "he that runs
inay read" what are the views of this Iran
Buren party relative to the wages of the
mechanic and laborer. In Germany every
thing is moan facturcd "at half their actual
cost here," because our currency is "infla
ted," and because the weaver, and he wha
earns his money between the hammer and
the anvil works for less—or in his own
words because "we manufacture at the no
minal prices of our inflated currency."
lie then proposes a remedy; and what is
it? REDUCE oar nominal to real prices;
that is, reduce our wages to the some as
they arc in hard money countries. This.
is what he says in so many words.—ln
Germany they are reduced, and the man
ufacturer, can sell cheap—and rouse.
quently if our manufacturers wish to cum
pete with them, they must PAY LESS
FOR LABOR—then they can sell cheap.
Is not this his very argument.
Again he says, the Foreign Manufac-
turer Purchases his Labor at
half the cost in this country, and if
we will reduce our "nominal to the real
standard prices we will cover our country
with blessings and benefits."
To show that Mr. Buchanan is not the
only Judas that the laboring men Lave
s2nt to Washington to protect their inter..
eats, and who has basely turned recreant,
and is now striving with his party at
back, to oppress and destroy their hopes.
and prospects, we select one little sen.'
tence from a speech delivered in the same
hall, by that Prince of Demagogues and
liumbuggers, Tom Benton. Benton is
what Pirrre says of himself, "a hold and
daring villian"—and he comes boldly out

ten to him.
'To the Southern States—to the wholel
cotton, rice, tobacco, and sugar grown
region—now so grievously afflicted
with the curses of the paper systein—
to all this region I would say, study the
financial histrry of Holland, France
and Cuba. Follow their example, em
ulate their solid currency. Imatate
them."—Nr. Benton's speech, Jan. 16.
Here then, you see, the thin veil of mys
tery cast aside, and the itfive dollar note"
politician of Missouri, openly says 'fol
low their Example, emulate their solid.
currency. Imitate tAem." That iv the
hard money counts its; aye, immitate
that is the phrase.
Let us, fur a moment, cast our eyes to
those countries whose blessings are sought
to be the inheritance of our children, and
our childrens' children. Look at the con
dition of unfortunate France. She is em_
I,hatically a hard money country. Look
at her, and read in the history of her mil
lions of beggars the "blessings and bene
'its" so eloquently pictured. Dupiii, a
French writer, says "the wages of the
argicultural laborer, is barely sufficient to
obtain subsistence during health, when
that fails, they fall into distress"— "It is
computed that there are twenty
who live wholly deprived of animal rood,
but who live on corn and potatoes; sevenl i
millions who have no bread, but subsist:
on barley, rye, buckwheat, chestnuts,
pulse, and potatoes. The daily income
of each person of 22 millions, is computed
not to exceed air rents a day." In Nor
!moody, the laborers arc never able du

!ing with the cattle in the barn, that they
may be kept warm by the animal hetlt a
;round them. In Lyons, the silk weavers
!are described as a "miserable, ignorant,
misshaped. leer people, constant
,ly diseased and occupying the most filthy
places." Ls Germany, another of the
countries, to which it seems to he the
pride of the senator to advert, and •to bele
hey have the re«/pricfr establis Led, and
whose laws this Van Buren party desire
us to imitate. There the artisan receives
in ditlermt sections, a rate of pay, vary
ing from about $1 50, to 2,2 694 per
week, and the daily laborer only 81 cents
and laborers in the country, when they
find themselves, are allowed about fifty
dollars a year—less than a dollsr a week.
In Bavaria, they receive but 8 pence per
,day. hi Saxony, in 1837, a man weaving
on his loom Irons 5 o'clut k in the morn
,ssing, until dark, with his wife to assist a
part of the time, could earn but CO cents
a week. In Holland, farm servants aro
able to earn from 550 to $3 60 a year, and
a laborer receives 40 cents a slay without
board. In South Holland, they get but
8 'cents a day without board. In Ant,
V.:111 10 cents a day without board or
,dwelling.
Here then, fellow mechanics,
,you ca n
see what are the "BLESSINGS and
BENEFITS," which is calculated to ex
tend to you by these sage politicians, that
have so long been firstered by your hands.
Do you wish to "emulate the example?"
IDo you wish to "imitate" the countries
where such misery and misfortune are the
only inheritance of the workingmen? Ca n
you still adhere to the support of the par
ty which boldly proclaims its determina
tion to "reduce the pay for your labor"
Ito the standard of these countries. There
the ''Llftsings and hernfita" of penury,
and are the eternal legacy. of father to
son among the laborers and mechanics;
and if you wish to enjoy their. in the same
full fruition, as the working men of those
countries, cry aloud and spare not for
Idle mad doctrines of these Demagogues.
Support them a few years longer in their
experiments of madness er foly, and you
will find yourselves mendicants, existing
solely upon the favor of the rich.
We - have but one position more to ad
vance to the laborer. Are you a mechan
ic who has the misfuftune to be in debt ?
Are you a farmer who has purchased a
smell farm, and have yet a "gale" or two
unpaid ? If so, what wifl be your email
lion? Will this reduction of the prices
of labor and products reduce the size of
your debt? No ! But you will find that
if your debt is $lOO, that it could now be
paid by one hundred days work. But,
reduce the price of your labor to 50 ceLt*
a day, and you will find that it takes two

Extract of a letter from Major Dow
ning to the Editor of the N. Y. Expresr.
I don't want to say any thing about pol
itics till I get to the top of the hill at
Washington; but I can't help goyim'',
that folks along the road feel and talk
and look considerably streaked; and if wo
don't look out sharp, the hull democratic
party will get in a snarl, and form their
own line and a new front.
I dropt in to have a talk with my old
friend Mangum, the blacksmith, who was
l a spell ago one of our standbys, and .
found his tire out and his bellows leath
ers breathless. 'Why,' says I 'llangung
how goes it?' 'Bad enuf,' says he; and
50 he went on talking about want of work
&c—that horses even went barefoot, and
no shoes wanted. 'But' says I. 'hear
that—and J jingled two pieces of gold
kept in my pocket, and with that he seiz
led his sledge-hammer, and slam'd it on an
'anvil. 'Hear that,' says Fe, 'Major—and
which makes the most noise—but what
does it amount to?' I seed at once that he
was over the fence, and so I dodged round
the corner and said nothing there, anti so
from one calling and trade to another I
, ornd pretty nigh all but, doing nothing.
