A Thought or two on Prices and Labor.
1. Prices will fall, all other things being un-
rhanged, il the currency lessens and contracts,
whether it be specie or paper. So they will
rise, if it expands.
This was shown in 1S19 and 1820, and the
United States bank, instead of the government
or a sub-treasury, was then charged with caus
ing the fall, which was much greater than now.
2. Prices will fall, all other things being un
changed, if more of an article is produced, or
an old market for it is cut oIT. So will tliev
rise, if less is produced, or a new market open
ed.
This has just been shown in respect to grain
in 1837 and 1838, when the grain crop was
small here and prices high ; and in 1S39 and
18-10, when the crop was large and prices low.
So as to opium, since the market of China has
been cut olf.
3. Prices of labor can never fall here, all oili
er things being equal, as low as in Russia, tier-
many, France, England, etc.
Because there the great capitalist has to
maintain an established church, a nobility, a
monarchy, a splendid army, a navy, and hosts
of paupers, leaving to the laborer merely
enough wages for food and clothing. ‘While
iiere the laboring man, or the man of small
means, is taxed as well the capitalist—is also
tree,and aids in the. government of the country
and if not getting a larger share of his earnin''
for wages, can profitably till the soil for himscTf.
while our new lands are so cheap, extensive
and fertile.
The currency is not exclusively metallic in
England, France Germany, or Russia; and if
it was, the effect of that alone on the amount
<>f the price of labor would he trifling.
4. Prices arc kept more uniform, sound and
rafe, by a good currency, founded on specie.—
•' ait that is all the effect ol currency on prices
ot cither labor or property.
Because a currency equal to ten dollars per
head, whether of paper or coin, or mixed, wou Id
leave prices entirely the same in amount, so far
as they might be airectcd by the currency.
5. Prices oflabor and property, whether fall
ing or rising, leave the laborer’much in the
same condition, except the inconvenience and
perplexity of change, because he gets lor less
wages, more cloth, grain, and groceries, if the
price, ns is usual, falls proporlionably in all.
But when, ns in expensive and extravagant
monarchies, the laborer gets a less and undue
ratio of what is earned by capital and labor,
arid the pampered aristocrat gets more, that is
an evil and a curse; and has been avoided, and
niways will be, here, while our Irec institutions
flourish, whatever may be the kind of currency
which exists.
I bit if the kind is good, uniform, safe and
round, the laborer and middling classes ge:,
nl-o, not only a fair proportion, but one that is
without risk, loss, and constant change. This
lie ought to have, if possible; and a part of the
duty of the government is to secure it to him
by nil constitutional means. [Globe.]
High Wages—W r e saw not long since a
letter written by the proprietor of a manufac
turing establishment in Massachusetts to an
other, in which he stated that they (manufac
turers) must reduce the wages of their hands,
and that the excuse must be that they were
compelled so to do by the general government;
and that in this way they would increase their
own profits, and benefit the whig party. And
yet these men declare themselves in favor of
high wages! The President has reduced the
labor of those engaged on the public works
»o ten hours per day, whilst the compensation
remains the same—and yet he is charged with
being in favor of reducing the pay of the work
ing class!—Saratoga Sentinel.
[.From the AT Y. Evruint' Pus/.]
lfnny of our grave and sober citizens who
are the fathers of youn<? men belonging to the
Tippecanoe clubs in this city, should find
themselves perfectly at leisure of a fine evening
when the clubs are advertised to assemble’
perhaps they could not belter employ their
"me than by walking out and dropping in
..t the meetings, which arc public, in order
just to satisfy themselves what their sons are
about. They will then he able to judge for
themselves whether these promiscuous conviv
ial associations are proper things to encourage,
and whether the newspapers perform their
-uty in commending them and counselling
their readers to attend. Wc have heard that
the number of young men who arc seen at
these places in a state of intoxication is so
great as to excite alarm even in miny who at
first saw with satisfaction the establishment of
(he Tippecanoe clubs ns a party engine.
At the Annual Temperance Convention of
the state of Connecticut, held at New Haven
a few days since, Mr. Leonard Bacon, a cler
gyman, and wc infer from his language a whig
alter alluding to some other cause which had
led to backsliding in temperance, said:
“There is another reason why the cause of
temperance is retrograding. It is, (and 1 say
it with no wish to otl’cnd any person,) it is
owing in a great measure to causes of recent
occurrence: Within three or four months
Drinking has become the badge of a political
party / The hard money humbug was hard
enough—bHt the hard-cider hunthii", will
. rove more disastrous to the country, and more
'.eorading to those concerned in it. Yes, in
telligent inen—men who have enjoyed the
1-enefits of Christian teachings—and who Jive
in aland of gospeliight—are called upon to
exhibit their enthusiasm in a political strife, hv
drinking hard cider, made harder by hard
.‘randy, for the glory of General Harrison'
Yes—at these conventions and committee
rooms, many a young man will take his first
lessons in drunkenness, which will bring him
to the almshouse or the prison, and the drunk-
ardsgrave!—More than ten thousand men
will be made drunkards in one year, by this
“ bard cider enthusiasm.”
From all that wo can learn we hare reason
t<i believe that Mr. Bacon has neither oversta
te? tR e fact, noi over estimated the dairocr —
Whatever may be thought of the prudence and
le propriety of some of the measures resorted
to by the zealous friends of temperance, there
' an be no question with any man, that it is most
desirable to preserve all that the community
has gamed in the general prevalence of tem
perate habits; and that any ielnpsc towards
Mat vice which is the parent of so many crimes,
™! C ! 1 P 0 ^ ert y and so many diseases, would
The relapse,however,!,
°n rapidly, contagiously
spreading with all the fu‘r y of a new fashion;
"IS pvrlnST ° f U par,y which P retc nds
to the exclusive possession of cood manner*
fo look to if. lest by their encouragement or
their acquiescence they bring upon the com
munity a greater and more permanent evil than
any which, even according to their own no
tions, could arise from keeping the present ad
ministration ill poweer.
Relapses in disorders of the human frame
arc the most difficult of all maladies to cure:
and the same thing is true of relapses into bad
habits. They who hnvo established those
turneries of drunkenness, the log cabins, will
find too late that the fire they have kindled
will not go out at their bidding. If Harrison
should he successful, the triumph will be cele
brated by drunken revels ; if he should be bea
ten. his adherents will, .-is the saying is, drink
to drown sorrow. The log cabins may be
razed to the earth, but the habit which has
once taken root will survive and increase in
strength.
It is certainly a remarkable fact in the polit
ical history of this country, that a party which
makes such boasts of its lofty aims, and of the
virtue and intelligence of its members, should
at once lay aside all the common methods of
persuasion, all discussion of political prin
ciples and public policy, and forming an
alliance with a degrading vice, should estab
lish schools of intoxication, take a drunk
en cry for its watchword, and rely upon gain
ing the majority by such expedients. If these about thirty years of age: levied upon asHieironcrty
methods succeed, wc shall not hesitate to con- °| ,)avid Hay. to satisfy a fi. fa. from Waltonlnferior
fess that our opinion of the intelligence and
the moral condition of the American people
has been far higher than it ought to be.
Questions foii the Biutisii Whigs.—
Wc submit the following questions to those
who are crying out against the administration
and the Democratic party, for the enlightened
course pursued by them on the currency ques
tion, and hope tliev will reply in such a man
ner, as will throw some light upon the impor
tant principles involved in their elucidation.—
In the years referred to, be it remembered the
United States Bank was in full operation.
Why did real estate which cost in IS17, Ssl,-
500,000 bring only §500.000 in 1818. Was
it the want of a United States Bank 7
Why was it that flour sold for from §12 to
13 per barrel in 1S17, and only four and a half,
in 181S 7 Was it Gen. Jackson tinkering with
the currency?
Why were our imports sixty millions more
Ilian our exports in 1810 ? Was it the specie
humbug.
Why were thousands and tens of thousands
thrown out of employment in 1818 and 1S19 7
Was it the “Sub-Treasury 7”
Why was it that in 1S1G and ’17, wild and
reckless speculation were engaged in, and wan
ton extravagance and luxury were the order of
the day 7—Was it the “want of paper monev 7”
Why was it in ISIS, ’19, ’20, and ’21, our
hanks, onr merchants, and our manufacturers,
from Maine to Georgia, were all involved in
common bankruptcy—Was it “caused by the
administration of Martin Van Buren 7”
Why were the exchanges more deranged in
ISIS, and the three subsequent years, than
they were before, or have been since?—Was it
the want of a “great regulator?”
Now we defy the British Whigs to disprove
the facts contained in the above queries. If
they attempt it, it will but attest their ignorance
of our official history: and make more manifest
the glaring hypocrisy which marks the policy
they are pursuing in relation “to high prices,”
and “hotter times.” The truth is, that the very
causes which have produced all the misery
nnd distress in this country—bank and paper
money—they are now trying to renovate and
perpetuate, that they may again launch out in
the ocean ol spcculniion, extravagance and lux
ury, unmindful of their consequences upon
the great mass of the people. To assist them,
however, in their researches, wc refer them to
Niles’ Register, debates in Congress, proceed
ings of the different State Legislatures, prices
current of the day, reports of the Secretaries of
the Treasury, newspapers, and last, though not
least, the mechanics ond laboring men," who
now have a vivid recollection of the suffering
they experience from the grand breaking-
up of a system of finance, being con^
ceived in sin and brought forth in iniquity car
rying in its train—as all measures must, which
arc not founded in justice or the immutable
laws of nature—ruin and desolation, ns well
on the innocent as the guilty.—N. V. Sew

The Lancaster, (Pn) Plain Dealer announces
that the IION. W. J. DUANE has avowed
Ins determination to go for Mr. Van Buren •
This gentleman, it will be remembered, left
the Treasury Department and allied himself
wilh the Opposition, on account of his unwil
lingness to “ remove the deposites,” in 1838.
He has seen his error, and we hail his return
to the Democratic fold with true jov. The
event proves that notwithstanding the iempora-
ry alienation of Mr. Duane, he yet had within
him enough of the democratic principle inher
ited from his distinguished father, to induce
linn to shrink with detestation from the sup
port of an Adams federalist of three score years
and ten, whose principles are known to be so
repugnant to the mass of the people that a
special committee of three have been appoin
ted to keep a padlock on his mouth to prevent
him from speaking “to friend or foe.” Go
ft I icnd, Mr. Dunne—you’re right enough now.
