Federal Discrimination
Agaiast Free Labor.
It is time th'at free labor issues which I
have originated out of the conflict of
classes. the chaos of politics, and the!
grt.dtit of dernberatic ideas, were impress
ing other !government polio es than those!
which relate tq the territories. It is not
suiadent that, in the flow of population,
and the occupancy of public domain, the,
free white labor of this nation should be:
respected it :demands likewise, in all
other deprrtments of administration, that
ni injurious discrimination against its in
terest shall be ';erniitted. We have here
tofore endeavored to impress this point!
upon our frienjis, especially in the west
ern states, as one of essential progress, and I
now it is brought more forcibly than ever
to-their cognizance by the recent action
of the Senate of the United States, which
whilst abolishinZ prescriptive bounties
paid to free white lalor engaged in the)
fisheries, has yet refused to repeal special!
duties levied tt, s.4pport slave labor in the
salt mines and on: the sugar plantations..)
We have never advocated the former class
of bounties, and are glad they have been
swept away, regarding them as of doubt-1
ful service, affin-ding precedent for vicious i
legislation. '.rlre,Senate, in that, has, we
believe, done veil ; but what shall We say
at finding that, upon the direct issue, in-1
volving the conflict between free and slave
labor, it has determined to maintain the
unjust tax upon the former in order to
support the skull of the latter. ' The free
working men of the- United .States
are taxed annually many Millions of dui
lar's to keep UP the profits derived from
employing a few hundred thousand negro
houds-men at,the south. Sugar and salt
are the:twogreat necessaries - of life, en
: tering into tte eonsuinption of the Masses
more and mor'e every year, 'yet this very
food of the laborer must pay a tax to sup.
port a slave tuenopoly before' it cao appease
, his hunger or, conduce to his health • acid
enjoyment. The duties levied under the
•
I present tariff„ amount to 24 per cent. on
the former article, and 15 per cent. on the
latter, and itl . NVe reflect that it is not only
this speidtic etistorn- house collection, but
likewise theenhanced price of all that is
home produced Which consumers are thus
compelled tO;!pay, th 4 stun becomes an
enorinotis one: to' pentemplate. -• It is a
charge of 24 iitnd 15 per ant' , respeetively
upon all the Sugar . at salt gsed in the
United State4 l lq the benefit of a slave la- ,

Editor, &c., Phil tdellehia, 'a.
We publish the above, in this prominent
way; for seVeral reasons, the first of which is'
that indicated by the last item of the 'adver
tisement. We have a great desire tolsectue
an exchange which most be so vultnble
the exponent of Siuthepo political literature.
Furthermore, the Disunion. Story-is called]stry
yestive, and may Open our mind's
some of those beauties of le grande inzititution
to which' i4eranee now closes it. Ifowevey
mach we may be dispo.ed to believe hit no
new ideas can be advancedi in the diselSslop
of this question of Slavery—at least in
of the systein—..ve are still mindful that this
is a progressive as well as suggestive age; . and
we may, therefore, be enabled to gle Ju from
this "Story of Disonion" some of the standard
points of Southern politics to which the next
•tDetuocrafic" candidate far. the Presidency
must at bscribe, and afterwards act out, before
-he can receive Southern. support, either airy
Convention :or at the poly—measures, too, to
which. Northern Demarcats will be required
and:expected to "give their willing adhesion,"
or lose the spoils they lore so well. -
Another idea we have in copying ;the above
advertisement, is to recommend that the Re
publican County Executive Conunittee shall
subscribe for 2do copies of this Southernifon.
ttor, distribute them among the remnant mem
bers of the Administration party in this qoun
ty, and thus " wipe out" the little stain ti-hich
yet remains on the fair fame of Potter Coun
ty's polities—in other words, make it a,unit
for the principles of Freedom and Right.l
do this because we believe that such papers
are the most effective documents we can cir
culate to make Republicans out of Hunkers.
We would ftlso rectunntend the same course to
be pursued by the sotto and NatiortufCom
mittees.
But; for fear that-our readers will think we
are only "talking" in this matter, and don't
'•mean anything," we will close this article
with a few extracts from ao 4 leader" in the
copy .of the :Monitor before-.us—hoping, in the
meantime, our Southern friend will extend us
the courtesy of his proffered exchange, in view
of our puff of his paper.. The article we quote
from is headed "To your tents, 0 Israel." It
is necessary also., for the rerulers to bear in
mind that this MOn,itor is publishecria
