As a.general average, wages are high
er in more newly settled re'ggons, espe
-'cially where emigration is rapid and en
terprise considerable; in older country
places the wages are lower, except near
cities, where - they are -high. In the.
slaveholding States wages are generally
considerably. lonei than elsewhere, with
the exception of the sugar region in Lou
isiana and the more southern, newer and
cotton producing porlions. To these
general remarks there are of course ex
- MRcuAmocs.-In the more northern
and eastern Stares, the daily wages' are
- fromt $1 $1.25, being irigher in cities.
In the more northern slave States wages
are not quita .s'o high. -in the newer
slave States the wages of mechanics are
*hfigher,'varying-frorm $1 to. $2. In the
.westerra States the price is generally va
riable,I being f)rom 75 ceunts to $2 per
day;.scarity ini a supply tending to ad
vance the price; withi-he low price ,of
- - m-povisions and consequent higher rates
of money, has a contrary tendency..
In England the average wages 'of' a
laborer are 40 cents per day, but the.
* standard varies greatly. The Netting,
'im' stocking weavers, in an address to
the 'pub'lic, stating that after toiling front.
*14.to 16 hours per day, they could earn.
only from.$1 to $1,25 per week, and
were obliged to subsist on bread and
-water, or potatoes and salt.
In Ireland, the average price of come
non labor islfrom ten- to twe-lve cents'
~per day.' -[n France, the common wa
'ge of a hired laborer is $3T.15 for a
man, arid $18.75 for' a women, annual
