English Laborers.
According to some of tlio Urilish journals,'
the coit'lilioii of a large portion of the Mntjlish
Jahorcir. is truly deplorable. They can with
gvc.ii, dilfieulty earn tb? ni?an3 of subsistence,
while their social comforts are few ami far between.
Various cllbrls have Wen iua<lo to
jiroduce a change, but thus far with link- sue- .
CSS. The Northern Times, pttbl'shed at Liverpool,
lakes up the subject in detail, and in the
course of a sympathetic article, says :
"AVe boast of our abhorrence of negro si a- |
very ; we romance, wo moralize, ami actually
We*p over lhe la!e > of African MiUVring, hut,
We cannot afford a passing thought for the millions
of while slaves who constitute the masses
of our lub-irimj population. What arc these ill
reality but mere animatcil machines ? employ(.*>]
oiilv because it has not been Possible. as \vi
to discover oiliers to supersede litem. As their
employment lists been the result of necessity, 1
and not of choice, the ureal object of the vin- j
jdoyer has been to tax the physical endurance :
of the employed to its utmost limits and re- j
luce the rate of remuneration to the lowest'
minimum. Unfortunately, the fierce compcti- ,
lion of trade, and the unusually overcrowded
flate of the labor market, combine to render
this state of tilings apparently inevitable.
"This is, indeed, a lamentable picture ; hut
the ease is similar, we fear, to a very consider- 1
able extent, in other portions of the world, and i
even iii tliis country. Thcto are few anion;/ i
the laboring classes, however economical and (
industrious, who even secure more than a iiv- :
ing f?>r themselves and families. Their lot is j
one of excessive toil. Those who are skilled in .
tome particular art or craft, can of course do |
belter. JJut the lucre laborer, even in liis best j
condition, has a hard task before him. There j
is, moreover, too little sympathy felt for this |
particular class. Their wants, their enjoy-(
merits, their recreations, are rarely considered.
They are regarded as mere hewers of wood
and drawers of water, and are treated accord- j
Sngly. How rarely, indeed, do we hear of any j
movement intended to alleviate the social con- j
dition or extend the social enjoyments of the '
merely working classes! liven philanthropy!
seems to look upon them with indifference or j
.-onU'inpt. But. this should not be. There is j
a season for all things, and due consideration i
Hiouni uc lell lor every member ol the human
family."
The Next Congress.
After the result of the elections in October
says the Washington we publish a ta- |
Me showing the now members elecleil nj> to !
thai lime, and also indicated how parties would
stand in the next congress, provided there was j
no change in the delegations from the States j
yet to elect.
The I louse, including Oregon, consists of !
members. In the October elections eighty- j
live members were elected?fifty three Ucpuhiicans
and thirty-two Democrats. The election
which took place vesterday in New York,
New Jersey, Massachusetts, Delaware, Illinois, j
Michigan, and Wisconsin, according to the rc- j
turns received, has, in all probability, resulted
in the election of Jifly-one Republicans and fif- i
teen Democrats. This will make the strength i
of parlies already clcctcd stands as follows :
Dera. Hep. |
Elected in Oetobcr. . . 3-2 MS
November. . . .15 M j
47 104
The States yet to be elect are Alabama, Connecticut,
California, Georgia, Kib.tueky, Louisiana,
Maryland, Minnesota, Mississippi, New
Hampshire,North Carolina, Uhodc Island,Tennessee,
Texas and Virginia, which elect eightysix
members. In the present House they stand
as follows:
Dom. Hep. Am.
07 7 12
Add already elected. 47 101
111 111 12
In the States yet to elect, the Republicans
may gain two members in Connecticut, and the
Democrats will, nil probability, gain Bix members
from the South Americans in Kentucky,
Tennessee, Georgia, North Cnrolina, and Maryland.
Such a result will make the next Congress
stand?Democrats 118. Republicans 113,
South Americans 6. in no contingency tan
the Republicans have the control of the next
Congress,
Population ok Cauvobnia.?The total number
of votes cast at the California Stato election
of this year, is probably less than 86,000,
-while last year it was about 100,000, and in
1856 about 110,000. The population of the
State had been stoadily but slowly gaining
from 1856 up to Maylast, when the Frater exodus
began ; since then there has been a Iojs of
about ICjOUOvoler^

there be any original dil^-renecs between the ,

tirely immaterial to the question umler discus |
Mon, unless il denies to Woman the ability to
pursue the higher brandies of study?a posi- ;
tii>n which would scarcely be maintained by
aiiv.?The education of men is twofold?libe- i
ral and professional. The distinction between i
them is radical. The one is intended to dis- j
ciplinc the 111 ilid and develop its powers, and
is therefore preliminary to the other which is !
designed to lit men for the active duties of lilc. 1
The great object of lemale education1) is to train '
develop, and inform the mind of w*o:nau, and 1
consequently those studies are to be pursued, .
which will cultivate most fully and harmoiii- |
ously her whole nature.
In considering the essential branches of a j
liberal education, the author urges a strong j
plea for the study of Metaphysics, and tlio Ail- !
eicnt classic:), and points cut in detail their pre- !
eminent advantaged in disciplining the mind |
and refining the taste. This branch of the sub- i
jeet lie discusscs with great fill litres of learning !
and research, and urges witli great force the
necessity of a thorough education, to lit wo- j
man to assume the proper duties of a wife and
mother. The merely useful and ornamental ;
should not be neglected, but should be merely '
subsidiary to that higher culture, which whilst ,
it enables the mother to dcvch>|>e the b.-st latent
germs of t!ic infant mind, will enlarge the
sympathies of the wife, and prepare her for
holding the most enlarged communion with
licr husbaml.
The Address we have found original and
suggestive, and having read it with much interest,
commend it to the attention of our llcadcTS.

1 Gen. McQueen and tho United States
Senate.
The Cheraw Jlcrtild, in noticing a speech rc.
cently made in Marlborough by Gen. McQueen
makes the following remarks upon his claims
to the United States Senate :
"The name of our honored Representative
has been brought pretty prominently before
the people of ihe Stuto as a suitable person to
represent South Carolina in the United States
Senate, and we have no doubt but that she will
nronerlv consider lii* nlnimi. #? ./! ? :

tor that high and responsible position, llo has
served the State long and faithfully in the representative
branch of our .Nation.il Legislature,
and now a promotion to theSeiiHte would seem
to be nothing more than a merited tribute to
worth and efficient services."

to hold it, and giv..-s so much en>p!oyment for (
money. The cotton movements, lor the mo
nieiit, requires money which go.s South to the
extent ot over ?U,wmi,?.?mi. The^Southcin hanks ;
hold a great deal of exchange, and those of New !
Orleans have ever ?12,i'>oO,lM>0 in specie in ad- |
ditiou. The small business in merchandise ;
for the year, in lace of the large crop and f.iir ,
pi ices lor it, will in all probability, keep the 1
exchanges in favor of the South more than usu- j
al. The gold now going South will he retinvd 1
ill shape of sterling bills, which will prevent
the gold going hence to Huiope. The luctulic ,
currency of the South increases rapidly, and
may, sooner or later, he productive of .-p.-eulalive
action in that quarter, which now presents !
so strong a contrast to the diilicullics of the
.North-west, which is dreadfully embarrassed,
notwithstanding its large crops of grain. The '
cotton crop cannot now, of cour.-e, bo estimated
so carlV in the season, but the receipts, so
ll-.c.. ..f !l... l..-? ... i :
years for the same period, and sells at lull pri- '
ce*. The export* of cotton are now 1
hales, or lO.'iOO in excess of last,year, eijual to
a value of f2,.jOi>,<siH) in exchange ; hut the ;
exports of brcadstull's are .-o much less, hence ;
the supply of hills nearly balanced. Tlie posi- ;
lion of the cotton crops is such that, with the'
estimated crop of 3,u('00,Mi'i hale*, it* ]>? iet- !
will not. decline, and will, at tile present value,
realize ?:i!JO,OUU,?>UO, while the sugar, rice, and
tobacco crops promise equally well. It is by
no means impossible, however, that, even with j
the crop stslid, the price may rise to Uij cents, '
\ which would give for the crop. :
The ahundanee of food and money, and gene-'
ral prosperity to Europe, promise such a result. :
Stairway for tho National Capitol
The Philadelphia l'<it?;/lc?ni<t>i gives the following
description of a massive balustrade,'
just finished by Messrs. Archer, Warner, Mis- j
key ?fc Co., of that city, for tho Capitol at!
Washington:
"It is a massive piece of bronze work, truly i
original in disiirn. It was executed under the !
orders of Cnptain Meigs. the Superintendent of )
the Cnpitol Extension, mid is designed for tlie j
private stnirwaj", inside of tlie building, 1>3- |
which members ascend to tlie haib, four flights
in length, making the balustrade one huudivd
mid sixty-two feet. Tlie balustrade contains
seven main figures; a buck at full (speed ; a
spread eagle, full front, of the bald headed
kind; ft black eagle stooping, with raised wings
and opened tnlous; a boy recoiling from an
irate rattlesnake; a pigeon's nest in a tree,
with young birds in it, and the mother ascending
to it. and two fine figures of cupido, in different
postures, among the scroll work. Those
are only the main figures. There are, all
through the work, fino representations of the
pineapple, rhododendron, rose, lilac, cotton
ninni, tuuiiucu juiim, inuinn corn, ncncin, etc.
The plnnts nnd figures nre nil modeled from
life, nnd evidence grent skill find rnrc fidelity
to nature. All the scroll work, figures Ac.,
nre in the heaviest and most njacsivo style.?
Cnptnin Meigs has expressed himself not only
pleased with, but proud of it, nnd Lord Napier
eulogized it ns cqunl, if not superior, to anything
of the kind ho had in Europe. Tho artist,
to whose skill wc owe this production, is
Bdmond Baudin, who, though a European by
birth nnd cdncalion, is a resident of our city,
nnd has entered into this undertaking with
the zeal nnd energy of a true artist,"'

have saved John Cochrane, Sickles, Maclay and !
I!arr in litis city, which is mure than tIti-y expected
by one half; nn?l have elected their en- '
lire country and judiciary ticket, which is also j
soiiiotliinir more than the appenranccs of iho
canvass two daysnu<? would justify.
The returns for Coventor, on the other hand
indicate a gain of several thousand in this ei'y
l>y tin: republican candidate from the American
side, mid n very t>i^niiicnnt run of gnin? on
last year's comparative vote, in utmost everv
hole and corner of 1 lie State. The Kochestcr
manifesto, then, of W. 11. Seward, declaring ince^-anl.
war upon the Southern institution of
slavery until nil the slave States shall be made
free States, or until all the free States r.hall be
changed into slave States, has received a nomi
nal endorsement from the people of this commonwealth,
which places Mr. Seward promi- |
neatly in '.lie foreground ns a republican candidate
for the Presidency upon the blood}' abolition
and revolutionary platform of Lloyd Garrison
and Theodore Parker.
Thus the election of Morgan becomes the
most conspicuous, the most significant, and the
most momentous of all the results of all our
elections lor the last twenty years ; inasmuch
as it places tin; republican parly with a majority
in the next Congress upon Seward's warlike
nn<l disunion platform, until the party
shall have otherwise decreed. The party must
now consent to sink Seward beyond the hope
of resurrection, or consent to sink with linn
and the Union in his designs to carry the war
against slavery into the heart of the Southern
Slates.
This issue, thus broadly developed in the
election of Morgan, is the paramount result of
yesterday's elections, in connection with an
anti-adiuinistration Congress. Tho agitation

tieo in the <1 iscussion how lea.lily the moral
responsibilities ot ma-tcrs were admitted, :iit<l
the unanimous testimony given to the elevating
influences of pur; r< ligioii.
In concluding this l epoi t We beg leave to aniioiiuee
three proposi',ion*, the coii-i.K-rat.iou of
which should give dignity to the .-lavelioldcr.
We can only state them without ilcveloj ing
the thoughts they contain.
1.?Dome-tie slavery is an institution which
the l'rovidencc that governs this worM, ever
has blessed?the history of the past. Mibstniitiates
this propositio:i by a thousand proofs.
i.?slavery as iL exists in the Southern
States is essentia! to the civilization of t lie world.
Abolish it and the most deplorable results
would immediately ensue and would be felt to
I.he farthest etuis of the earth.
8.?Slavery as it exists among us is essential
to the social ami moral welfare of the African
race. In this eondition tho negro attains
the highest elevation of which he is eajialile.
For the proof of this assertion contrast, the well
iv.t| x .. V.X....V, .-line IICU' Willi
tin: free negro of tlic north, or the emancipated
nciiro of the West Indies, or the untamed
savage in Ins native wilds. The slave-ownci
is tins only beiii-factor uf the negro.
When we view these propositions in conjunction
with the profile of rdavery, We have nstri- i
king illustration of the wisdom of that I'rovi
deuce which presides over nil.
it is laineiitalilu to reflect that an institution
i from which llows so nriny I?l?-?>^i;iirs to the
worlil, should be so little understood not only ,
by the north, but that in its nature and relations
il should be so much misapprehended l>y
| our own people.
It is high time that we of the couth were in- '
doetfiliated in the truth thai we h?!d slaves
not by mere suli'ranee, but by an indisputable '
right. It is only when we regard itasadi- ;
vinely instituted relation, that we feel as we
I ought, the mural responsibilities which it iin
poses.
Ksoush Diri.oMAcv.?When Sir CoreOtialey I
; arrived at Washington and continued his re?i- i
i deuce there for many months, it produced a
variety of conjectures in diplomatic circles. !
| J lis mission was to Central America. Why he
remained in Washington when his instructions
; nppeeared to call him to Central America seems j
I now obvious enough, lie continued where lie
i could accomplish iiis purpose more effectually
I .1 :r i... i.-. i 1
i mi.111 it iiu nati jmucccuuu 10 iMcaragua. in
j \Vas''i?gtoii he was in ready communication '
wiili 1-ord Napier, and was consequently in a j
poj?iti?" watch the proceedings of our gov- |
ernine"1 relation to the Central Amcricuii .
States, l'lc United States being the only power '
which wa9 likely to intercept the iiritish !
scheme Acquire a control over the transit I
route ncro.83 the Isthmus.
The f"it of this diplomacy is seen in a trca- !
tv with Nicaragua by which concessions are
oi>taiucd? which, if they do not lead to such
control immediately, must finally* Nicaragua
refused a similar concession to_ the United
States* In this British Diplomatic movement
our government lies been counterworked. British
diplomacy has been too astute for the slow
and indecisive action of our Senate nnd Executive.
In theso movements, requiring secrecy
and decision, wo shall always be counteracted
and circumvcntcd. It has been justly said
that for eight years we have been diplomatizing
with England on the Central American
imbroglio, and the questions arising out of the ,
controversy ore more complicated tiinn ever.
The subject, it i3 supposed, will early engage
tho attention of Congress. Our foreign relit- *
i ti&na as regards Spaniah America throughout '
I have become so entangled as to require all the ! '
1 wisdom of our statesmen. '
