and allowing sixteen dollars to an ounce, and
sixteen ounces to thc pound, and two thousand ,
pounds to tho ton, and ono ton to each cart, it ?
would require a thousand carts to move it; and
allowing twenty feet to each horse and cart,

-A correspondent of tho London Dally

spector pried Into lils boots and poked lils fin?
gers Into thc bottles of pomatum, "because,"
he observed, "watches and Jewelry may bc
concealed anywhere." Some gloves and a few
boxes of cigarettes were discovered, ftnd on
these thc traveller was obliged to pay a duty.
But not to tile government alone, for the
dorks, as well as the inspector, smoked tho
cigarettes, and thc lutter bugged a box for a
cousin, asked for a pair of gloves, and, to clap
the climax, Intimated that through his Inter?
ference thc duties paid hnd been considerably
lighter than the law provided, and with a
greedy, cunning look, bo said, "Now, don't
you think r*-and thc victim "responded with
some dollars," when thc oiitcer was seen no
more. Perhaps some of tho color in tills pic?
ture ls duo lo tho contempt which most Eng?
lishmen fool for tho customs of this, "blarsted

requisite allowances, enough remains to form n
forcible argument In favor of a radical reform
In our civil service. '

criminately; and ns "the longer pole knocks

und most persistent liars succeed In currying
the day."
Th? Confederate Armies.
Tho New York World publishes tho stutc
raont of the seeretnry o? tho Southern His?
torical Society, conllrmcd by Adjutunt-Gcn
crui Samuel Cooper, that thc effective
strength of tho Confederate unidos was
never greater than 200,000 men, nnd rc
murks that "nt thc time of Lee's Burrcmlur
"but 100,000 Confederates wero in thc Hold,
"in opposition to a Union army a million
"strong. " Tho Now York Tribune copies
tho article of tho World, ?nd expresses thc
firm conviction that "Ibo Coiifotlcraoy Merer
"2>uf 100,000 7HCD inline of bailie al any
"moment." Tho Tribune snys further that
thc Confederacy had not 50,000 men in its
encampments around Mminssus when Mc?
Clellan stood "inactive and irresolute" for
months before those encnmpinents "nt the
"head or 150,000 lo 200,000 or thc best men
"that ever shouldered arms." Thc Tribune
lays upon McClellan Ute whole blame and
shame or three long years or devastating
wnr, mid dcclnres that McClellan, had he
been "a lit commander, would have dcmol
"isbed tho Conredcracy in 1862." Upon this
point we quot o Hie words or tho Tribune:
"There ls now no decent pretext for con?
cealing or disguising thc truth. Wo hold that
McClellan lind ample force to have whipped
Lee In fair fight-a forco that toon M have
whipped him Inevitably, If their Honorai lind
had the pluck to fight-nay, thal did whip him
(nt Malvern Hill) whenever their Gcncml on
his gunboat, could no longer prevent their
lighting-and that only n tit com munder for
uich nn nrmy was required to Insure the de?
molition of Hie Confederacy In 18G2. Wc hold
that, while McClellan was constantly calling
Tor more men, he never gave those bc had a
"air chance at tho enemy, and thnt they would
havo taken Richmond directly after Fair Oaks,
?nd again after Mulvern HUI, if ho bad not pre?
vented."
These admissions aro frank and signifi?
cant; but tho truth of the Tribune is not
always tho truth ot history. There was
enough of timidity nnd lethargy itt the Con?
federate military councils to muko us unwil?
ling to cast thc first stone. Tho South, at
lenst, did not Illume McClellan, nor under?
rate lils worth ns a thorough soldier, an car
nest patriot and mi honest man. Tho Young
Napoleon understood, fur better thun thc
Tribune, the weakness of his forces. Wo
only express the general opinion or the sol?
diery or thc South when wo say that McClel?
lan did thc Confederacy rar moro injury by
converting a dispirited mob into a thorough?
ly efficient army thun he could have done
by a prematuro "On to Richmond." Had
McClellan hurled Iiis raw battalions agaiuBt
the untrained but martial troops of the Con?
federacy, the glorious talo of tho first Ma?
riasses would have been told again, aud Mr.
Grindstone would not have erred in declaring
that "Mr. Jefferson Davis hod created a na
"tion.'' From McClellan alono the army of
the Potomac gained the steadiness, confi?
dence nnd discipline which saved Its luinnors
(rom trailing in the blood-slaked dust or
many a hard-fought field. From him the
Northern army gained tho qualities which
Bnabled it to the last to assimilate the new
levies which caine thick und fast, making
ar the raw recruit with unwonted rapidity a
trusty veteran soldier.
And if the irresolution and inactivity of
McClellan were tho only reason why tho Con?
federacy was not "demolished in 1862," is it
lot .somewhat strange that his immediate
mcccssors met with no better fortune ? Tho
jraggart Pope was defeated more disastrously
it Mnnassas than McClellan was at Rich?
mond. And when tho fears or the adminis?
tration were thoroughly aroused and McClel
un again set his squadrons in tho field, thc
Confederate army was checked ut Sharps
jurg. The wave of invasion broke at the
'oot oi the living rampart which McClellan
juilded up, but even the master Bpirlt was
lowerlcss to arrest tho backward sweep or
.he tide. At Frcdericksburg, when thc
100,000 soldiers or tho Army or Northern
Virginia had dwindled away to three-fourths
)f that number, Burnside was smashed and
ihattcred and driven over the rivor. Later
dill, ut Chancellorsville, Hooker, who grasp
id thc baton which had been snatched from
ho hand of Burnside, was smitten on the
Innk and hurled back to his entrench?
ments. Tho conquering army was broken,
cruised and scattered, whether led by
McDowell, Pope, Burnside, Hooker-or Mc?
clellan. At Gettysburg General Meade won
for the Federals their first groat microns in
the East. Even then the Army or Northern
Virginia, terrible in doh ut, watched tho
enemy unmoved for two dark days, and sul?
lenly retired.. When thc throw lind been
mndfl and lost; when Virginia calling for
ber children would not bo comforted ; when
there was mourning in every homestead,
and a pall of gloom overhung tho whole or
our sunny Sooth ; oven then General Meade
did not demolish tho Confederacy. At Wil?
derness, nt Spottsylvania and at Cold Har?
bor, thc Confederate nrmy killed and
wounded a greater number of tho enemy
than there were in its own ranks. And
when the final battle was fought and tho
war-worn Captain of the Host yielded up his
spotless sword, only n pitiful remnant was left
or tho army or gallant soldiers whom Mc?
Clellan learned to respect in tho mnrshes
or thc Chickahomlny, in sight or tho spires
of Richmond.
Tho Tribune, has sahl a foolish thing be?
cause or its political pr?judice against n
Democratic soldier. McClellan did fail; but
so failed each ono of his successors, until
tho 100,000 bravo Confed?rales of 1862
had becomo the weary 20,000 of 1865. And
for each ono of tho Generals who followed
McClellan more was. done, in monoy and in
men; than was allowed to the man who
created tho Grand Army of tho Union.
With the means at his command McClellan
accomplished more than could have been
accomplished, with thc same means, by any
ono or by all of his successors-tho butchor
Grant included.
As tho Tribune says, there is no decen^
pretext for concealing or disguising the
truth. Could the gaps in the ranks of the
Confederate army have been flied; could
wc have drawn on Germany mid England
and Ireland for recruits; could thc men in
thc Held huve hud from thc skulkers und
idlers ut homo tho support mul tho succor
which it was their solemn duty to give; tho
Anny of Northum Virginia would never
bavo inven conquered. As lt was, the ond
?WfTiot come until our tinny was outnum?
bered ten to ono; until our divisions hud
becomo brigades, our brigades regiments,
our regiments '.oinpunies; until thc little
band ol heroes who still clung together was
battered and crushed by tho brute force of
numbers.
Tho Tribu tn doubtless lins lt moro at
heart to disparage General McClellan than
to praise tho South; but if it continue to
preach tho gospel of our weakness and (ho
strongth of our foe, it will compel us to behove
that, during tho war at lonst, on eu eli pair
of Soutborn legs did mnrcli six doughty
Yankees.
The Strike ami thc Strikers.
A colored ninn mude nil agreement to
work on Adger's wharf nt one dollar and n
hull a day. Yesterday morning, ns ho was
about to begin work, somo colored men,
ropresoutiiig themselves to bc members of
tho Longshoremen's Protective Association,
went up to him and suid that thoy would
boat bim to death, if ho dared to work for
less tlmti two dollars and n ludf n day.
They suid besides that nt night, when thc la?
borers on tlic wharf were going home, they
would whip every ono of thom for not obey?
ing thc orders ut tho association. Thc
colored man to whom they spoko, und whom
they threatened, was so alarmed that he
left tlic wharf and went up town. This
statement was made, by thc man himself in
tho hearing of tho writer.
For thc intimidation of this colored man;
for thc riotous conduct and assaults of thc
earlier days of last week ; as well ns for tho
insolent blustering of Saturday night, thc
Longshoremen's Protective Association Is
alune responsible. Thc association jmd thc
right to make rules to govern its own mem?
bers, and could punish any of t hem by linc
or expulsion for an infringement of its re?
gulations. When thc society, however, de?
cided that thc longshoremen shonM ro
cclvo two and u half dollars a day-work?
ing only n certain number of hours-and
endeavored to pruveiiH und did prevent, by
throat and actual violence, inoffensive men
from working for less than tlic prescribed
price, tliey transcended their powers and
interfered, in a mummer both illegal and
unwarrantable, between thc workmuu anti
Iiis employer.
This is not n question of race or color; it
applies to white und black alike. Every
mau may obtain us much as he can for his
labor, and the employer judges for himself
whether he shall or shall not givo the work?
man the wages for which ho nsks. When
tho bargain is once made, whether tho
wage3 be twenty-five couta a day or twenty
flvo dollars a day, no man or body of men
can lawfully prevent, by intimidation, tho
currying out of the bargain.
These longshoremen who bull}* nnd beat
meu who arc working honestly for a living,
are the enemies of tho public peace, and
they aro no less tho enemies of tho work?
ingman. There are hundreds of colored
men in Charleston who aro willing to work
at a dollar or a dollar and a half a day
leas than thu association prirj> Thoy
have wives and children for whoso daily
broad thoy aro ready to toil and sweat.
The wharf-owners arc prepared to employ
them. When thoy attempt to go to work
tliey aro met by a mob of associated long?
shoremen, and are greeted with a shower of
brickbats, a blow with a club, or a thrust
with a knife. They inust allow their fami?
lies to starve, or else work in danger, of
their lives.
All that wc nek for ls fair play. Lot every
man work who will at thc best wages ho
?nu get. To refuse this may bc Radical
doctrine, but it la not tho doctriuo of any
respectable mon in the State, whatever their
color or condition. Tho striking longshore?
men and their Radical abettors are now
striving to starve the frugal and i ndustri
0U3 laborer.
Tho law of tho question ls perfectly clear.
Men who assemble together for purposes of
intimidation and violence aro guilty of riot?
ous conduct, and would bo severely punish?
ed if tho city authorities were impartial in
thought or courageous in action. As it is,
the protection given to the laborers has
been just too late to be effectual; just weak
enough to make the rioters believe that tho
authorities wink nt their lawlessness, and.
to prevent lt, will do no more than they cnn
help. It is to bc hoped that tho Mayor will
in time know bis duty and do it. If he
should not, and the existing order of things
continue, we must look to other quarters for
the security of our merchants, tho welfare of
our commerce, and tho rights of thc work?
ing man.
WE would direct attention to the able
communication in to-day's NEWS, contrast?
ing tho present State government with t hose
which have preceded it, and suggesting a
means to check its playful eccentricities.
