MATTERS IN WAIHIICTOI. * As ( oncress convenes next week, the at tention o( even- intelligent American citizen ts now directed to Washington, to catch a glimpse. If possible, of every incident oc cur! ing there that may have the slightest political significance. An intelligent Washington correspondent of one of onr Northern exchanges, says no concerted plau of action has yet been agreed upon, as regards the organization of Con gress, notwithstanding that many Republi can members of the next Congress have been in the city and have held frequent Interviews with the President. Perhaps it would be more accurate to say, there are two plans of action proposed, widely different, and that the members generally are not committed to the support of either. The first plan is that of the President. It is based upon the prin ciple that the States have not Jeen out of the Union : that the rights of tba Southern States are as perfect as those of the Northern States. He w ishes, therefore, says the correspondent, that the Senators and Representatives from the Southern States be admitted to partici pate in the organization. The other plan is that of the extreme or radical wing of the Republican party, led by Sumner and Stevens. It is based, ostensibly, upon the fallacy that the rebellion is not yet quelled— they maintain that the rebellious spirit is as strong at the South now as it was a year ago, aDd to admit the Southern members would be to admit a set of half pardoned rebels and traitors, whose presence in Congress would endanger the stability of the Govern ment. This plan, however, is really based upon the apprehension of the fact, that from the moment of the admission of the South ern members, the power of the Black Re publicans will be gone forever, because the Southern members uniting with the Demo crats of the North, and with the moderate Republicans, like Doolittle and Cowan, in defence of the President's policy, would have a clear majority in both Houses, ove* the Radicals. The same writer says that several lead ing radicals are constantly in Washington, making very great exertions to win over to their side every member of Congress who may visit the city and is known to be at all doubtful. But the success which they meet with is by no means commensurate with the efforts which they use. Their greatest en emy, their most formidable apponent, is President Johnson bimselt, who, in his in terviews with those members of Congress who call to see him, expresses himself frank ly; and without passion, and with perfect kindness and good humor. Several mem bers of Congress have been heard, after their interview with him, to declare that they have beea deceived, and misinformed in regard to the feeling and temper and dis position of the Southern people,and from the light they now had on the subject, they would act very differently than they had in tended. The fact should be stated, however, that the radical leaders profess to be confident that tbeir plan will be successful, and that all of the Southern members will be kept out at the beginning of the Session—that the House will be organized without them.— Their file leader, Mr. Stevens, has deelared that none of the Southern members will be admitted at any period daring the session, except a lew exceptioaai cases, such as the members from Tennessee and Arkansas.— The prejudices of the radicals seems to be concentrated mostly against the Atlantic and Gulf States. « . Among tire many plans for the settlement of the vexed question of Southern Represen tatives is the following, submitted by an old and influential member of Congress, which it is stated meets with considerable favor at the North, and will not be opposed by the President: “Let a select committee (a joint committee would be better) be raised, to whom the constitutions of the “reconstructed” rebel -States shall be submitted, with nil papers bearing upon tbe subjects. This committee shall consider, first, whether the State con stitution is republican in lorm; secondly, whether it is the act of the loyal people of the Slate over which it is sought to estabiisli it; and thirdly, whether domestic tranquil ity is so lar restored iu such State that its people can maintain its constitution. To the House Committee of Elections each individual case would be referred as usual, but said committee will naturally await the report by the select committee from each State. The proposition meets with considerable favor here, and will not be opposed by the Piesideut.” IMPORTANT MEMORIAL TOTHELEG ISLATtKK. A memorial bas been left at this office for signature petitioning the legislature to make such alteration in the statute regulating the interest ol money as is demanded by the pe culiar circumstances in which the people of Georgia are placed. In the language of the memorial, much of the capital of tbe State has been destroyed, particularly its agricul tural capital. It is impossible to renew opera tions on the soil and to raise exportable pro ducts, without the use of capital from abroad. To induce tbe emigration of foreign capital, inducements must be presented to invite such emigration. The rate of interest as fixed by law in this State, can never induce tbe foreign capitalist to loan bis moneyed means supposing his security to be ample, unless tbe rate of interest is at least one to two per cent, above tbe current rate of tbe neighbor hood in which Le lives. The rate in New York, which is the money centre of the Union is 7 per cent. The legal rate in Georgia being the same, capital will not find |ts way here Tue suggestion iu the memorial seems to us both scuyible and practical. It l« to permit loans to he made at tiny rate of interest agreed upoD iu contracts for money, and th-y a when in auy contract, the rate of interest ■ Bhall not he specified, it shall be fixed at 7 V per cent. It will be borne in mind by the Legislature of Georgia, that we live in a period that is t\( < ptioual—that our KUtte has Ix eu devaluated by war and that there is no mode of rekiiscitatiug it* industry but by the use of foreign capital which con |*> invited to visit onr Htote by no other Induce im nl than an adequate rate of interest A 1 npy of the lut-uioriai signed by several • and out prominent citl/c**, ie left m oui couuf tug I'rhii lor •iifiuturi i Mi Marehall O Jtnbcrls has lawn reiiumi neted io( Mayor Ol New VotV by |h, Ite jiuidhona of Urti illy 1* UIXKRAU —They are looking for a young man in Chicago, named Hawley, who baa fallen lieir lo S4OO, «*» by the death oi an uncle in Fug land. —“Bridal chandlers' in sleeping cars are the last Ibing out on the New York Central railroad. —Mr. Kenneth Raynor, of North Carolina, writes that be loved his slaves almost as much as his children, that they were always an expense to him ; but that they have lelt hint, and are now dying of idleness and want on a plantation on which they have taken re fuge. —The Columbia 8.

The question at present paramount over every olh< r is in what manner shall labor he so organized as to be Boole efficient in pro duction. The great object is to present such motives to tbe freedmen as to induce them to engage iu industrious employment, in the desultory manner to which his disposi tion inclines, hut steadily and continuously. The selfish principles of his nature must be appealed to, to produce this result. The feeling of hope and not that of fear—the idea of reward and uni that of punishment must be deveio|M;d to induce exertion. Setting out with this as the normal principle of auy scheme of labor that may he devised the means of its accomplishment are not dif ficult lo discover. It must be supposed tbat the negro bas the same hopes and fears—the same love of gain and the same desires near ly to gratify as the white man. If tbe latter is slothful under the ordinary incentives to exertion—if he will not work with fair wages unless stimulated to do so by extra com pen satiou Itow can the black man be expected to do so History must here be our guide. The large manufacturing establishments in Europe exemplity, iu the greater number, the inetticacy of labor where services are hired—the sluggishness of action where the recompense is a per diem allowance, and the energy of action where the laborer partici-. pates in the resulting profit. The attention of master manufacturers has been called within a short period to the effi cacy of this principle in procuring labor that will be steady and continuous, instead of be ing desultory. It bas been tested with com plete success, the most remarkable example of, which was the case of M. Leclaire, a house painter in the city of Paris about twenty years since. This tradesman em ployed on an average about two hundred workmen whom be jraid in tbe usual manner by fixed wages. He assigned to him self, besides interest for bis capital, a fixed allowance for his labor and responsibility as manager, which may be denominated, we suppose, the wages of superiutendance. At the end of the year,’, the surplus profits were divided among tbe body of laborers, himself included, in tbe proportion of tbeir wages. The reasons,says Mr. Mills in his “Principles of Political Economy,” by which M. Le claire was led to adopt this’system are high ly instructive. Finding the conduct of his workmen unsatisfactory, he first tried the effect of giving higher wages, aDd by this he managed to obtain a body of excel lent workmen, who would not quit his ser vice for any other. Having thus succeeded in producing something of stability in the ar rangements of bis establishment Mr. Leclaire expected ,be says, to enjoy gieater peace of mind. In this, however, he was disappoint ed. So long as he was able to super intend everything himself from tbe general concerns of his business down to its minutest details, he did enjoy a certain satisfaction ; but from the moment, owing to the increase of bis business, be found tbat be could be notbiDg more than tbe centre front which orders were issued, and to which reports were brought in, his former anxiety aqd dis comfort returned upou him. He speaks lightly of tbe other sources of anxiety to which a tradesman is subject, but describes as au incessant cause of vexation tbe losses arising from the misconduct of workmen. Au employer will fiud workmen whoseffnitiffer eoce lo bis interest is such that tll£y do not perforin two-thirds of tbe amount of work which they ate capable of; hence T the con tinued fretting of masters, who, seeing their interests neglected, believe themselves enti tled to suppose that workmen are constantly conspiring to ruin those from whom they derive their livelihood. If the journeymen were sure of constant employment, his posi tion would iu some respects be more e’nwable than tbat of tbe master, because he is assur ed of a certain amount of day’s wages, which he will get whether he works much or little. He runs no risk, and bas no other motive to stimulate him to do bis best than bis own sense of duty. The master, on the other hand, depends greatly on chance for bis returns ; bis position is one of continual anxiety. This would no longer be the case if the interests dt the master and those of his workmen were bound up with each other, connected by some bond of mutual security, such as tbat which would be obtained by the plan of a yearly dividend of profits ” •Even in tbe first years during which M. Ltclaire’s experiment was in complete opera tion, tbe success was remarkable. Not oue of his journeymen who worked, as many as three hundred days, earned in that year less than 1,500 francs, and some considerably mare The highest late ol daily wage being four francs, or 1,200 francs for 300 days, the remaining 300 francs, or £ 12, must have been tbe smallest amount which any journeyman, who worked that number of days, obtained as bis proportion of tbe sur plus profit. M. Leclaire describes in strong terms tbe improvement which was already manifest in tbe habits and demeanour of his workmen, not merely when at work, and in their relations with their employer, but at other times and in other relations, showing increased respect both for others and for themselves.” We have cited this example as illustrating the efficacy of the principle of a division ot profits. There are many other examples on record. In the American ships trading to China, says the same work, it has long been the custom for every sailor to have an in terest in the profit of the voyage ; and to this bas been ascribed tbe general good con duct of those seamen, and the extreme rarity of any collision be.wce'n them aud the gov ernment or people of the country. An in stance in England not so well knowu as it deserves to be, is that of the Cornish miners. In Cornwall the mines are worked strictly on the system of joint adventure ; gangs of miners contracting with the agent, who represents tbe owner of the mines, to exe cute a certain portion of a vein and fit the ore for market at the price ot so much in the pound of the sum for which the ore is sold. These contracts are put up at certain regu lar periods, generally every two mouths, aud taken by a voluntary partnership of men ac customed to the mine. With this basis of intelligence and independence in their char acter, we are not surprised when we hear that a very great number of miners are now located on possessions of tbeir own leased for three lives or ninety-nine years, on which they have built houses; or that £‘JB l, 541 arc deposited in savings banks in Cornwall, of which two-thirds are estimated to belong to miners.” Thu examples cited relate to manufactur ing employments, but the principle admits of extension to agricultural employments like wise. It voluntary slave labor is ever found to be efficacious it will be on tbe system of a division of profits as in that ot M. Lecaire, the employer giving fair wages to the em ployed and dividing the surplus in the pro portion of their wages, the interest for the capital advanced and the wages of superin aodenee bein u deducted.
