JR LABOR QUESTION AND THE
CHINESE."
his is the title of Art. IX, bj Mr. j
ton, May Number, 1371, of Scribner's j 1
thia-from which I take a few ex ?
ts, suggesting a few notes : i
[t is impossible to deal fairly with i
Chines? labor question without <
t] a fair examination ' of orr culu-e \
r system," is the opening sentence. ?
fter a statement, rather than argu- \
t, which no one perhaps will quos- -
, that, while in other lands "the labor (
kct is supplied by the peasant order \
y serfdom or slavery, we, having no ? a
i resource, are forced to look abroad" i
>ur similar supply --that, thus "the i
tc population (!) of older and over- c
ded countries," have pressed in by j
OMS among us ;-thai we ourselves r
ated from menial pursuits have won i
ligh] a position" as any of thc other r
much older nations ;-that our 5
.system has not kept p?.ce with a
-that whereas in our "jirst period c
ceded only brute force, and muscu- r
owcrto fell trees and hoe potatoes," j a
we must have skilled labor and lei
:c our inventions in agriculture and ;c
ifacture;-and that hom such ad-jj"
emcnt, our present labor-system is 1.
npetcnt. From all this there is ti
ced or assumed his "first proposi ? t
viz : Our pres? .if labor ?gsfem is I
cctualfg inadequate io thc necessities j y
? j>i>?tli' and the- capacity of tltc .,
ry and the p> ri'-d."
i present thc writer's second pro- a
icu properly, I must quote thc ? S;
c pai agragb leading toit", "Not a
hxs our labor-system failed to ail- j j,

Mr. Norton next, running thron^h j
thc tlii"': classes of labor- I dip in j ?-1 ,:
herc and there)-says: "Our la?>or
system [bas become] a monopoly with
no competitors,and the cons? quenci has \
bceu-labcr improperly and grudgii ?ly .
performed, and exorbitant compensation
insolently demanded." "'Domestic >-r- ; ?"?
* i *
vice in this country has at length oe :
come a simp!'.-condition of tyranny ?n f
the part of the servant over thc master." ; ?
"Gradually our republican theories, as ai
applied to a loreign and intractable eic- j
ment, have Lorne fruit in drawing in of m
*Ilere in tlie ?South this two-bold j A
evil has bc-n perpetrated by a leap. I?*?
instead of by thc .?.low process indicated '. fr;
above;-and that, too, by "the bc-t ru
government thc world ever saw"-a 1 ji
government which the whole North d.- a!
lights to uphold and to encourage in : s cn
magnanimity toward a conquered, ?u > so
missive people of their own race.-al m
magoaoimity that with a stroke of th . \ la
sword prostrates thc whole people, a?, i \ yt
with a reverse swing of thc same poten1 ! th
instrument, raises a putrid mass t:'j
negroes, led on by equally putrid hu- th
much abler interlopers, over their ow.; Tl
wronged countrymen-a dark, fou foi
night-mare, impressed and swayed bj (JTJ
an irresponsible and conscienceless oli- of
garchy. |
j In the North they sec this cvi and1
snuft its approach, and tremble in their
boots at the prospect. But if Scribner J
and Norton and the rest of them wish to
sec it in full blast, they cati behold here n0
in the South, as mere lookers on, the
seething cauldron :-assured, however, ?
?that their own doom draws on. They
have put the negroes over us, not for
thc negroes, good, but that we may toil ?u
to enrich thc negroes, leaders and drivers, i
aod that the negroes may aid in keep?
ing up the Natioual. oligarchy. 'Tis
COM?Dg, gentlemen ! You hare (rump/' J
down the States; you havo given the _
ballot to every mnx-cniotte among the!
whole population, black, tan and white; \,%
nod be sure you will be at no loss for j
demagogues and aspirants as vile as.

power, where they will have sense J^
enough and be sober enough to drop in !

Ah, gemlomen, t?ast, North and West,; ^

the sword and the purse, and bestridef?
you all, as you deserve to be bestridden, d
and rule yon and work yon for the bene- ; h
fit of the fear, aa yon need to be ruled Ui
and deserve to be worked. Well may j N
yo* tremble, bot 'tis too ?ate; the eup i?|
about to be held to your lips, and th?]
dregs are rt the bottom, ?io grimace j
come-prepara to quaff I
thc lines of division, until it is impossi?
ble to tell where subordination begins
and supremacy- ends. The fact is, there
is li.tie or no adhesion by good feeling,
but only the temporary sustenance of an
?ppaient servitude, for the sake pf aD
interest which culminates in real mas?
tery." "Thc same condition of monopoly
)btains in rite manufacturing interest,
?nd is aggravated by the scarcity of
Hailed labor, [leading to combinations],
ivhich at any moment may derange the
irhole system of manufacture," &c. "As
0 agriculture, thc abolition of slavery
ras productive of results, as regards our
igricultural progress, whose hitter and
ftjurious effects must be felt for an
ndefinile period of time, unless some
ithcr form of labor shall take [its]
dace ; and yet this act of emancipation,
uinous to our agricultural interests as
t mu>t bc at the outset, cannot but
c.sult favorably in thc end, j>roa'dcd it

A SECRET THAT I LONG TO TELL.
BT CLIO STAHLT.
Do yon know my secret, dear?
Sorely you must know it 1
Listen now and yon. will bear
All the blithe winds blow it!
Blow it in a merry tune
Through the leafy bower of June,
Where thc lilies listen :
Ah, your sweet eyes glisten
'Neath the golden voil of noon
Surely you do know ill
Do you guess my secret, dear?
Surely you can guess itt
Low, bend low, and you shall hear
All the flowers confess it!
Telling it to the nodding sheaves,
Telling it to little leaves
Where the song birds hover;
Ah, yrur checks yon cover
Where the blnsh a bright spell weare*
Surely yon can guess it!
May I bring the secret, dear L
8uro!y I may bring it
To your heart, for even now
AW thc bright birds sing it.
Sing it up and down the way,
Dropj. ?g it, nt close of day,
Whoro your foot-steps linger,"
Hark ! each little ringer
Trills his very heart away
Surely I may bring it !
Shall I tell the secret, dear?
Surely I may tell it!
Yet, nor gold nor preci?os stones
Ever should compel !
Crickets pipe it in the grs'S,
Bees will hum it as you pass
Through the den-lit heather ;
All sweet winds together
Breathe it to my little lass?
