DIALOGUE BETWEEN A LABORER AND AN EX,-SENATOR. CONTINUED. Laborer. Since our last conversation, Mr. Senator. I have been afraid. really, that we are going to have rather too much of a good thing. _ Senator. How so neighbor .7 L. Why, you proved to me that it was a good thing to have the priceof "labor reduc- ed-—that is, you told me the leaders of the party said, and that they are always right. Now, the price of labor is so much reduced, that I cannot get work even enough to earn my bread; and its just so with agreat many other folks in our town. Now is’nt this too much of a good thing .7 S. Oh those changes always come a little hard at first—biit there’s this about it, they don’t work well for the Whigs. Have you read Mr. Calhoiiri’s speech .7-he proves ve- ry clearly how the thing will work. L. -Yes, I have. is this the saine Mr. Calhoun who abused Gen. Jackson so much, and who was called the Catalina of the Son- ate .7 S. Yes—I rather think he is the same. I did’nt go to the‘ Sinit till after that time, and may be mistaken about it——but Irather guess it's the same man. _ L. How happens it that he now belongs to our party .7 Is he any better than he used to be. S. No, I suppose not—but still we could’nt well do without him, end so we took him as he is. But what do you think of his speech .7 L. Can you tell me if this Mr. Calhoun is the same who studied law at Litchficld with Judge Reeve .7 S. I don’t know much about that. For myself, I never had much had much taste for the law—did’nt like to study it. and you know it is necessary ; for our folks don’t think much of law. But to answer your question-—_I think I have heard that Calhoun did, in his younger days, study law at Litchfield. L. Then he must be the same man about whom I have heard the story— S. What story, neighbor.7_ _ L. Why, Judge Reeve said one day, if he wanted to prove that pumpkins grew on ap- ple trees, that young Calhoun could do it. S. Yes——yes-he was always a smart fel- low. L. Pretty much like my smart horse,that’s broke his harness, and my sleigh and wagon. and that’s got so bad a name that nobody won’t have him. He won’t go any way but his own way. ' 8! But how did you like his speech .7 L. IVhy. he said, did he not, that the Sub- Treasury would enable those who own mati- ufactories at the North, to sell their goods so cheap in the foreign market as to bring them in competition with those made abroad .7 S. Yes, and so it will. L. But how can this be done. unless labor is also reduced to the same condition and price as it is in Europe .7 S. Well, suppose it is——will it not be just as well .7—for then you will get your pay in hard money. ' L. It don’t make much difference to me whether the money is hard or soft, if I don’t get any. I never have been able to see the difference between a hard dollar and a bill which I could change for a hard dollar. S. This cry against a reduction in the price of labor is all a Whig measure, intend- ed merelyto deceive our friends—it will work well I assure you. . L. I find, Mr. Senator, that in the hard money countries of Europe the price of labor averages about l0cents a day, without board ; and do you really think that would be as well for us here, as the dollar, or dollar and a half which we used to receive .7 ‘ S. Why not: why is not 10 cents as good as ten dollars .7 L.

The discussion of Mr. Buchanan's resolu- diency of enlarging the specie basis of_ the country. Mr. Calhoun spoke in opposition :0 its provisions, on the ground that it would engraft on the Constitution the banking sys- tem of the States, which he considered as the greatest calamity which could happen to the country. He would, however, vote for it, if Mr. Buchanan would enlarge the reso- lution.so as to bestow on Congress the gen- eral regulation of the currency. '_ Mr. Preston also opposed the resolution, on the ground of its inefficiency, as its aim was at a specific power to interfere with the rights of the States, not the establishment of a general principle. Messrs. Henderson of Miss. and Grundy of Tenn. spoke in warm approbationof the resolution. Mr. Calhoun, in replying to the latter ggntleman, took occasion to say, that he was not opposed to Banks. This remark was to a supposed allusion to him by Mr. Grundy as an advocate of an exclusive metallic cur- reiicy. wish was concurred in by Messrs. Clay of Ala. and Davis of Mass. Mr. Preston with- drew his opposition, and the resolution of in- quiry was passed. The ordrr ofthe day was the report a- gainst the Assumpiion of State Debts. Mr. Strange of N.

The report of the memorial of the Steam Navigation Company, asking for adebenture on coal which they import for the use of their outward bound vessels, was taken up and, af- ter considerable debate, was laid on the ta- ble by a vote of 26 to 16.

In the course ofthe day, Mr. Lumpkin of Ga. introduced ajoint resolution calling the attention of Congress to the subject of ad- journment.
