What the result will bc remains to be seen. -The Washington correspondent or the Balti? more Gazette says : "Tile abrupt discharge of thc ' meehatiics at the principal navy yards is thu meanest thing yet done by this administration, beiuffboldly acknowledged ana 'consequence of Mr. Dawes' attack u;?on Hie economy' of Hie gov? ernment. It needed no1 this assurance of the g >\e nment organ to convince the workingmen thu Radical politicians would not hesitate lo sarrii ce them to reach a political opponent, espe? cially one who had done so much to expose their ho low professions. A pertinent inquiry mignt be Bt ii ied by the men discharged, uainely : ir the officers or the several navy yards have been pro por.ionntely reduced? It is stated upon onicinl authority that we have now nearly as many officers as men in the army as well as in the naval service." -Ta-ceremony ortransrerring the remains or Gre Peabody rrom her Majesty's iron-clad Mon r h lo the charge or thc Governor or Maine, atP rt land, took place on Saturday, according to p.- vlou* arning iiienf. Tile morning opened over ast and threatening. Immense crowds cove ed every point of lookout, filled the boats in the harbor, and swarmed in the r.gguig of the sh pp og. All the vessels in thc harhor displayed their colors at hair-most, and business was sus-; pended throughout the city. At ll o'clock ? the Monarch fired one gun as the signal that the remains were disembarked, which was followed by minute guns from the rest of the fleet, Fort Preble, and the arsenal. Thc boats of the fleet were drawn up belcw the Monarch in 1 wo lines, each headed by a tugboat. At U:15 Admiral Farragut's flag steamer, the Leyden, with the remains on board, guarded by tlie officers of Hie Monarch, preceded by thc steamer Iris, which,with thc band of thc Stn United States artillery on board playing a dirge, came from behind thc Monarchy and steamed slowly through the double linc of boats up the harbor followed by two lines of boats filled wiifc men seated with oars apeak. Admiral Farragut, In the steamer, Gohassct, bringing up lite rear. Gov? ernor Chamberlain, accompanied by his starr and thc Legislature of Maine, with an escort composed of two companies of Maine mili? tia, the Portland Mechanics' Club, arid ttie Portland Light Infantry, under command of Gen? eral John Marshall Grown, awaited the arrival at thc Washington wharf. As thc Leyden reached the wharf, thc boats of the fleet drew up closely stem to stem. Thc marines marched out and formed into linc ahead of the Maine troops. The body was then taken from under thc canopy which had been erected on thc stern or thc Ley? den, and was borne by ten sturdy English sea? men up the pier past thc lines of soldiers, the band of the Monarch playing a dirge, and follow? ed by the family of thc deceased, thc Peabody committ? . Captain Commerell and his officers, and Admiral Farragut and staff, to where Gov? ernor Chamberlain awaited it. Captain Commer? ell delivered the rernaius to Governor Chamber? lain, and the procession moved on to thc City Uah. J. J. Wright, a colored man, who si's in the General Assembly as senator from Beau? fort County, wa3 elected yesterday Associate Justice of the Supreme Court of this State. Wright was born in Pennsylvania, gradua? ted at the Lancasterian University in New York, studied law for two years at Montrose, Pennsylvania, and was admitted to the bar in Susquehanna County, being the first col? ored man admitted to practice in Pennsyl? vania. Ia 1S65 he came South and was made legal adviser of the South Carolina freedmen. Lie was a delegate to the Reconstruction Convention, and was afterward elected to the State Senate. Wright is quiet, well-behaved and decid? edly intelligent, but neither his decency nor his little knowledge of the law caused his election to the highest judicial position in the State. We vas elected solely and sim? ply because he ia a colored man. Thc Radicals themselves, white and black, know that Whipper cannot fill with credit the position which has been dragged down to his' level. They know that before Hie Snpretne Court will come questions of momentous im? portance to the people of the State. They know that Whipper, whatever his smartness, will be either a mere puppet, or, far worse, an obstinate ignoramus, who will carry with him to the bench the pitiful arts of the pettifogger. Knowing these things, and knowing them well, the Radical majority persisted in electing a man whose only merit is th* color of his skin and bis personal popu? larity. The welfare of the State, and the safety of the people, are as nothing in com? parison witli thc determination to indulge at all hazards the prejudice aud passion of race. Let them go on! The more tho better of this brave work while lasts the negro car? nival. "Lands for thc Landless and Homes for thc HomelcM." Mr. Wendell Phillips reminds one of a case knife. He was always thin and wire-edged; and these qualities are not improved by wear. He was always thc Juvenal of the Anti? slavery party, and cannot forsake his role, now that the objects of that party have been fully accomplished. By a singular fatuity he has persuaded himself that detraction is the agency by which reforms are achieved; and now, having abused the South until even his ample vocabulary is well-nigh ex? hausted, he turns Iiis batteries against the whole country. He has regarded himself as the apostle of Hie colored race; and now that tliey have obtained full political liberty, seeks to subsidize to their welfare Hie indus? try and the capital of the Republic. He modestly suggests that every white man who has seven dollars ought in justice, to give one of them to a colored man; and that the General Government ought to seen re to every colored man the forty acres and that mule, so long expected-and so long with? held. In delivering bis bosom of these political absurdities, Mr. Phillips is repeating th o catch-words o? hhs parly, and plays the part either of a knave or a fool. Inacoantry where every man is free to work and invest his money as be pleases, the vaunted policy of ' 'homes to "the homeless and lands to the landless," means only that the industrious and virtu? ous shall be compelled by law to support the idle and the dissolute. Why limit the bene? factions of the public to cottage and field? Our colored people are not paupers, (as Mr. Phillips and his brother Radicals seem to suppose,) and we rather think they will re? fuse to be treated as such. But if they were unable to take caro of themselves, might limy not as justly demand from charity their shoes and shirts and dinners as their houses and lands? It does not require ?1 ".reat amount of intelligence to see that Hie Radical bid for colored votes is not only in? consistent and insincere, but casts upon the entire raeo a stiugiug insult. It is also a menace to capital. If the col? ored laborer is entitled to one-seventh of the wealth of the country, because he was ita producer, so is every other laborer entitled to Iiis share in the projected division of spoils. But the producers constitute the majority of the whole population-9ay three-fourths. Then, if the agrarianism advocated by Mr. Phillips be adoptad as the national policy, it will not be one dollar out of seven that the cap? italist must surrender, but three dollars out of four. What will the capitalists ot tue country say of this policy, of which thc Rad? icals have now shaped tho entering wedge? Or should the result we have indicated be beyond the audacity even of that pitty, where else can they consistently conduct tho movement? Will they say to the white la? borer: '-This arrangement is for thc benefit 'of the colored mm and not for you? Nay, "you shall not only have no share in the new "division of property, though you also helped to produce it-you shall not only have no "part in the public largess, though you also "have received only a support for your " labor-but you must be taxed for the cn '.riehment of your colored brother. He " must have his house, Iiis mule, his lands,. '.though you have none-ami these advan " tages must be given him out of the public ..purse to which your hard-earned money "contributes !" Wc have seen stranger ihing3 in our coun? try-wonders of political conversion, won? ders of legislative folly, wonders of financial legerdemain- beggars on horseback and thieves in ermine, and panders in the courls of princes ; but there is one wonder we never shall be persuaded to tolerate-a negro oli? garchy, sustained by thc tribute of the capi? talists and the white workingmen of these Southern States. That such a condition of society should be even thought of is mon? strous. And that the Radicals should majte such a bid for negro suffrage, shows the des? perate straits they fear. They arc reckless political gamblers, upon whoso promises thc colored people cannot rely. They will do anything for power, and their continuance in power will prove the ruin of the'eountry of their dupes first of all. *s Dull Times for Workingmen. It is not in Charleston alone that the work? ingmen find it difficult to obtain work, and more difficult still to secure any advance whatever in the present rate of wages. The complaint of hard times is heard all over the country. In Europo there is the same cry of want and destitution. And the en? deavor of the workingmen everywhere is to hold their own, to keep at work, until trade revives and labor is more in demand. In New Tork, the Mecca to which the Southern workingmen usually turn, business is stagnant, and thc mechanics are suffering greatly. This is not confined to any partic? ular class of trade. Tiie New York Star, the able organ of the workingmen, says that the manufactories and workshops, formerly lively with the hum of voices and clatter of machinery, aro now as still as death. Among the members of lite building trades, the complaint is particularly widespread. Com? paratively few buildings are now erecting, and consequently carpenters, bricklayers, masons, plasterers, laborers, plumbers, pain? ters and stairbuilders are alike suffering from the paralysis of trade. The various in? stitutions for Hie relief of thc poor are taxed to their utmo3t capacity to afford relief for the thousands who are constantly applying for aid, while the intelligence ofTicos and labor bureaus are daily overrun with appli? cants for situations. At a recent meeting of the New York stairbuilders, it was asserted that nothing like the present dullness ia this business had ever before been experienced in the cit}-, while the cabinetmakers affirm that fully one-half of the men employed in that branch of the trade are at present walk? ing thc streets, idle. A general cutting down of hands by the cigarmakers lias been in progress for several weeks past, and in many ryf the shops where from twenty to thirty hoads were formerly employed, not more than one-half of this number arc now to be seen. The government has done its part in swel? ling thc tide of distress. In Norfolk GOO workmen have been discharged, in New York 500, in Philadelphia 1100, in Boston 1300. In all, 3500 workmen, representing more than fifteen thousand tuen, women and children, have been turned adrift by the Re? publican official, to increase thc general mis? ery. And, all th? while, the influx of me? chanics from abroad continues, and each day adds scores to the number of our unem? ployed poor. From England thc intelligence comes that there is much Buffering at present among the working classes throughout thc couutry. It is reported that on Christmas day there were 150,402 men, women and children in the twenty-seven parishes of London receiving public relief, and who without this aid would starve. In Woolwich, where operations in the government dockyard ceased on Septem? ber 18, there are at present 3000 paupers in a population of 23,000, and 1700 houses are empty. Thc condition of Deptford is re? ported to be much more deplorable. This condition of affairs at home and abroad has played sad havoc with the niles of many of tho Trades' Unions regulating wages and the hours of labor, as many of the Northern society-men are compelled, by Dntside competition, to work for aluvial any price tba employers may see fit to ofter. Strikes being of little or uo avail under ex? isting circumstances, thc workmen, in most instances, submit to the terms of the em? ployers, and anxiously await the advent of n more auspicious season, when the revival of trade will enable them to successfully de? mand wages commensurate with the times. We must, all of ns, bide our time. The low rate of wages will increase the demand for commodities of all kinds, und the de? mand will, in turn, stimulate the supply, which can be increased largely only by pay? ing better wagea to labor. This chain of cause aid effect is as unvarying as the rising and setting of Ibo sun. But, while we are awaiting thc coming of better times, we may clear the dead wood and rubbish from our path, we may, in a word, kill this infamous South Carolina Radicalism which oppresses workingman and employer, and, in thc name of Progress! plunders and injures every de? cent mau in the State. THE debate on tho Uluo Ridge Railroad liing-as it is usually called-in the Senate on Monday, developed the fact timi thc .sena? tors believe that there is something very rot? ten in the management of thc company. A thorough investigation of the whole business is due to the public, no less than to the offi? cers of tho road. Gabbles anb {jiuucss.
