boclatiom.
The sem'i annual :report of this body, just
published, has an address from Ms. E. D.
Conxnnn, the President, on the subject of
Prison Labor. It being of general interest
to workingmen, we copy as follows his
remarks on the action of the New York
Legislature on the “Bill to regulate the,Con-
tract System, of Labor in the Prisons of the
State :—
“At the commencement of the session
two bills we're offered, one, limiting con-
vict labor to to l per cent. of the total num-
ber of able-bodied convicts in the‘priaons of
the State to be employed in any one line of
manufacturing business; the :otber prehiblt-
ing the use of convicts labor in the manufac-
turing of hats. On the 20th of May the assem-
bly passed the second as an amendment to the
first and then ordered the bill so amended
to athird reading. 0n the 21st a vote was
taken and the bill defeated. This will
in all probability dispose of the matter at
present, as the session is very near its close
and the prospect is that we will have to
fight the battle over next winter It was
hoped, when the legislature opened, to have,
' attained a more definite result; nevertheless,
it is a great point gained, that we have
friends enough there to give us a vote of
49 to 44, on a piece of legislation for our
especial. benefit; it will check any enlarge-
ment of the hat contract for the present,
and before the tyre years which limit the
present contract expires we have good rea-
son to hope that it will. not be renewed. To
show you the importance of renewed effort
in this matter, I_t_1uote from the report of
Mr. Pillsbury, Superintendent ofPrisons in
New Yerk for 1870. Speaking of Clinton
‘Prison, whore already five hundred men are,
working atihattingé‘ he says: {‘An important
consideritidn‘ in favdr Of enlarging this
prison to a. capacity of 1,500 convicts is the
fact that‘by such enlargement suflicicnt room
can be made for all the convicts in the State
at a much less expense than by the erection
of a new prison of the required capacity;
that the same warden and stud now rt-
quired'for the care or 600 convicts'would
be sudlcicntj for the enlargement." Mr.
Pillsbury has 1,400 men at work at stove
making in Sing Sing Prison; if his sugges—
tion is adopted and Clinton Prison enlarged
to a capacity of.'1_,'500, who caouodoubt if not
prevented, he will soon have 1,500 convicts
working at batting there. It is a duty that
every man owes to himself, and his family
to see to~ it that he: is prevented, and tO do
this we must uphold the hands of those
whom peculiar circumstances 'or marked
ability have called to the front to do this
work for us.‘ 'No man 'who depends upon
batting for a living, from the largest manu-
facturer to the youngest journeyman in the
trade, can close his eyes to this duty with-
out committing- "a blunder which may soon
result in the destructi'oni of'his only scarce
of living. Thereby gmlifying‘fresult at-
tained in New Yo?k,"so far, is due to the
self sacrificing spirit of the members of theI
Brooklyn Aas'ociatiOn, who have been un_-_
sparing in their time, money and edorts to
abolish batting in the prisons of New York,
aided by the funds of the Executive Commit-
the of the trade." , .
After referring to the action of the Con.
necticut Assembly,which we have published,
paying a compliment to the commission
appointed by Governor Andrews to investi-
gate the§matters, he refers to other States as
follows: '
“In New Jersey, although immediate dan—
ger has been removed from us by the pas-
sage of the Prohibition Bill by the Assembly
of 1878, our members are on the alert, aware
that “eternal vigilance is the price of lib-
erty,” and warned by the defeat of the shoe-'
makers' Bill, they have kept up the agitation,
by large mass. meetings of mechanics of
Newark, and the adjacent towns, evinciug
a spirit of determined resistance to this gross
wrong which reflects great credit to them
mid presages good results in the future.
They are worthy objects of emulation to
the members of some of our other associa-
tions. -
« In Mbuactts we find a state of thing
Anything but encouraging. In the ;prison
It Concord ”0 convicts are working at fur
batting. The Commissioner of the Bureau
of Labor Statistics of the State has not hes-
itated to go out of , the line of his duty to
glean the number of convicts'at work on
contractl. in the United States and by
comparing them with the whole number
of mechanicsin the country, to belittle the
effect of suchglabor on the whole_ mun-
ulacturing 'of thecountry, knOwing, as any-
one must" know who hasgiven the‘ subject
any thought, that the contract system did
not come in contact'with' the Whole manu-
facturing labor 'Of the whole country,~ but. .
onlya few ‘branches,'and that to the great .
inconvenience of such branches. During

In the Rhoda Island Penitentiary, at Prov-
idence, thsyarcfittlng up a for bat shop.,
The same man who has the Massacusetts-
contraet has this one. He evidently finds it
a paying business, as the contract has been
given out since the last prison report was
issued. I_ have no' means as yet of giving
you the number of men to 'be,‘ employed on
it. The capacity of the prison is about three
hundred convicts. . ’ , 9 _
My fellow, members I have endeavored to
lay before you the true position of the trade
towards this prison 'question and what are
our'probable prospects in the near future;
enough has been said to show you that our
work has just begun, that there is no rest for
us until we have laid this hydwhuded mon-
ster law; this we cannot do unaided; we
must improve every opportunity to parade
our wrong before the public; we must let no
opportunity pass to enlist their sympathy. to
instruct them in the enormitics of this con.
tract system, and to enforce our arguments
we must enlist the experience andwisdom of
those who arsb'est fitted tojudge.”
Hequotfi framthc report of the Inspec-
tors of the Pennsylvania Penitentiary. .
“Pennsylva'nfi rejects an economy so false
both to tha cOnvict- and to society. The
teaching! of enlightened benevolence have
ncvcrsanctioucdlt." The progress of social
science has left the sordid and the selfish
among the false doctrines of that material
dlspenmftrib'niwhich idolizes gain and denies
to mauth'cinhercnt right, even in’his convict
condition, to ovary beneficial influence which
Christianity «civilisation has in its power
to bestow? . ‘ .
following the panic of 1873. The poverty
of the producing masses, was Well defined
and ascertained many years before 1873, and
while since that year it has been more mark-
ed, yet it was apparent even during the sc-
called prosperous days preceding thgt year.
Truo that for some years steady employment
helped cover up the fact, but a month’s idle-
ness in almost any laborer’s household reveal-
ed the fact that poverty existed in all its
hideousness. Two dollars a day to the me—
chanic, counting the days he must lose for
lack of employment, keeps the masses of
them in poverty, it may not be no absolute or
so glaring as that of the common laborer, yet
it exists and is made painfully apparent in
the households of thousands.’
“flow heartily can we who comprise a por-
tion of the class 'of skilled laborers, confirm
the truthfulness of the above picture of our
condition, and with what dismay lnust we
look forward to the fact that in the immedi-
ate future we must sustain a loss through
convict labor of at least one fourth of our
usual employment, and that the remainder
must be reduced very greatly in price by this
nefarious competition. Already there are
upward of 800 convicts employed at for
batting; we have about 5,000 makers and
finishers all told. Whereas we never work
more than eight months in a year, these 800
convicts will work twelve months; aided by
the most approved machinery these men will
do as'much work in one year as 1,400 of our
men will in eight months, and while these
convicts are becoming daily more demoraliz—
ed by association and we are becoming daily
its convicts and the contractor will become
enormously rich at our expense. In no
country in the world, Christian or Pagan,
except in the States in this country has a
government yet dared to contract out the
labor of its convicts to be employed at skilled
labor. Lord Dufferln and Lord Rosebury,
two of England's most liberal statesmen, say
that no ministry could maintain itself a day,
and that no king or queen would be safe on
their thrones who advocated such a system,
and yet in the United States, which is sup-
posed by some people to be a country governed
by the whole people for the whole pcople,thc
the mechanic is placed so lowein the political
scale that he is forced to 'compete for his
day bread with the most abandoned felons
of the land, in order that the community at
large may be exempt from the cost of sup-
porting its criminals, in other words, the
cmnmunitg robs the moham'c of the means of
summing its felons, descending in the scale
Of meanness lower than its felons, for they
rob the strong who are‘ able to punish them,
but the State robs only those who in their
weakness can find no redress. Foreigners
have charged us with being a mercenary peo-
ple, with worshipping the almighty dollar.
The warden of the Illinois Penitentiary, in a
recent interview, said: ‘I am compelled to
use the labor of the penitentiary in the way
it pays the best,rega_rdless of the moral effect,
or Of the effect on the industries outside.’
This is the evidence of an Officer who has
charge of 1,657 convicts, 1,264 of whom
work on contracts ; verily this is a damaging
piece Of evidence against us and seems to con-
firm the' above suspicion, at the same time
effectually disposing of the hypocritical plea
of humanity so freely used by the friends of
this system to blind the public to its cllormi-
ties.
As a great work is still ahead of us, and as
many bands make light work, and in many
counsellors there is wisdom, I would suggest
that each local association appoint a special
Standing committee on prison labor, whose
duty it shall be to meet at the call Of the
chairman, to consider any matter or work
that may be submitted to them in this con—
nection; let the committees be large so that
the work may be the more surely performed,
and that on their appointment they report to
‘ the secretary of the executive committc of
the trade, of said appointments 'with the
names and addresses of their chairman bud
accretaries. .
In closing our report I anI_ happy to any
that the condition of our trade during the
past term has been one of great harmony if
not-of prosperity. Still, even in that direc-
tion we have some good reason for satisfac-
tion, and some groundn for hope of a sure if
not rapid return Of good times. Our greatest
and almost our only trouble is prison labor,
and that we must meet manfully, for it is g.
battle for life. Yours truly,
E. D. CORNELL, Nat’l Pres.

news reached him that the British had
marched from Boston to attack the Almeri-
ems. There was roast chickens smoking hot
on the table when the pounding of a big
drum was heard out of doors. All hurried
out and “a darkey was seen coming down the
street crying, ‘The British have left Boston
to ’tack the Americans 2’ Gen. Putnam’s

The, Chinese Ambassador at the Berlin
001177., Li~Fang-pao, is famed among his
Vsuutrymen as one of the most eminent
among their learned men. He llasTlot neg-
lected the opportunities which his travels
in Europe have afforded him of making him-
self acquainted with the details of Western
civilin ation. Li-Fang-po has been examin-
Ing the remains of Grecian pottery of the
Trojan and pro-Trojan periods, and has made
a valuable discovery. ' He proves that the
vases found in Trojan territory and buried
in excavations, dating from pre-Trojau ages,
such as those referred to by Schliemann
are really of Chinese origin. On one of
these vessels LbFango—pao finds an inscri' s
tion to the effect that, about 1,200 years
before the Christian era, some ent’.rprising
individual had enclosed in the 'vgge three
pieces of muslin anddespatrmed them for
iBBPWIIOfl- It seems, lhfirefore, that this
piece 0f pottery. at all ev’.nts,slgniflcantly re—
cords the fact of the commercial intercourse
which existed so far back as the pro-Trojan
era between the industrious natives of Cathay
and the enterprising merchants of Asia Minor
and Greece.

Concerning its origination.
Its progress and its terminatibn,
I’ll try to give, in explanation.
“First; know that eve de
Begins, with moral aberzratifoalllc-atlon
Till avarice gets domination; ,
Brings conscience into subjugation;
Fills brain with schemes of speculation,
Soon put in secret operation,
With money of some corporation,
Or private loans, in situation
For subjects of manipulation,
By one held in such estimation,
None will suspect his speculation.
The books by artful alteration,
And, here and there sheer fabrication,
Show fair; and pass examination.
“But funds Spent, find no restoration.
And, spite of all dissimulation,
At length comes an investigation,
Which makes astounding revelation,
Waking a wide-spread consternation,
Soon passing into indignation.
“What next? A crippled corporation,
Hundred thrown out of occupation
Are fearing possible starvation.
Or, many a. small accumulation,
Earned by hard labor and privation,
Shrinks to a and attenuation,
'If not complete annihilation,
Poor widows, in deep tribulation ,
Mix tears with orphans’ lamentation.
“And 0,, what dreadful expiation
For him who wrought this desolation!
Gone is his once good reputation ;—
Exchanged for shame and degredation,
On all sides heard sharp reprobation,
Some, pitying, seek to for palliation;
But more, give vent to execration.
“Who can endure such criminatiOu ?
Be hides, flies, seeks expatriation;
But scarce ’scapes law’s stern vindication,
Arrest and rightful condemnation
To long years of incarceratIOu.
This, young man, THIS is defalcation,
In its legitimate consummation.
“0 strange, thrice strange infatuation!
That men of sense and observation
Should e'er give way to its temptation."
