Twenty-five years since. there was not one foreigner among them for every ten that are now located there, ev- idently. “Then; tiie Inbor of the region was done —except upon the public works in progress—al- most wholly by native bora persons, anda foreign born journeyman mechanic, if I remember cor- rectly, was a rare sight there. Nowall the labor, domestic and otherwise, is apparently in the hands of foreigners, as well as much more than half the trades; while from nearly all the houses upon the railroad side, evidently the abodes of the labor- ing classes, the physiognomies appearing in the windows and doorways were unmistakably Irish and German. Natives continue to be the propri- Everett Meeting: The Baltimore's Trip to the | Ctory cultivators of the soil there, however, their Great Eastern; Phe North Carolina ugitive | bired help omly, being born abroad. To this influx Slave Case; of foreign born persons do employers in that region attribute the gradual decrease of the shoemaker’s wages referred to in my last letter, They allege that some years since those making shoes for the houses in the trade, to incrense their own piece- earnings, began the practice of taking grown ap- Prentices, Who obligated themselves to work six or eight months for the benefit of their teachers — sufficiently long to enable them at the end of that brief period to compete with the latter after a fashion, underworking them of course. In that way the supply of shoepwaking and other rough mechanical labor in eastern Massachusetts has evidently become greater than the legitimate ex- isting demand for it there. Its offers to work for jess than a fair price indnce undue competition among the manufacturers; especially those of them who may be in the trade without a Sufficiency of bona fide capital of their own, and are enabled to sustain themselves for the time being by a resort to bank facilities, such as they could not obtain from solvent banks if their real circumstances were known. The remedy for this state of things, the only effect of which is to make a few of the rich richer and all the poor Poorer, is the aban- donment of their calling by avonsiderable pro- Portion of such Massachusetts operatives, who must torn their attention to other callings there, or go elsewhere in search of employment. The attention of capital there is now earnestly directed to the task ef finding profitable employment for them in other manufacturing callings, and it is proposed to ask Congress to &ive special protec- tion to whatever new business they may engage in. That is, to some description of manu- ficturing not now practised to any consid- erable extent {n this country, in which they shall hereafter engage very generally. This Proposition will be equivalent to asking that the country at large may be taxed to make up the de- ficiency in their support from their Present busi- ness calling. 4¢ is ipossible that such a scheme can succeed in this age of the tendency of the public mind to less rather than Rreater “ protec tion”? from Government, The annually-increas- ing poor rates of Massachusetts, already a grievous burden to all directly taxed by them, can never be thus made up out of the purse of the people of the other States. The truth fs, the system through which a population so enormously out of propor- tion to that of other sections of the Union has been concentrated in Massachusetts and other New England manovfacturing States, is essentially a hot-bed one, and can only be Perpetuated bya resort to further forcing expedients. | cannot perceive that it has resulted in permanent benefit to the masses where it exists, who would have been much better off laboring elsewhere at call- ings in which there exist a legitimate natural de- mand for their labor Their boasted freedom and extraordinary privileges have no existence in fact. That is, they are notso free from the personal control of capital as white Inborers everywhere else in this country are; while their privileges are more for public mischief than for the enjoy- ment of more than the most meagre means of keeping body and soul together. They are fast lapsing into the social and industrial condition of labor in England and Scotland, the boasted freest countries on the face of the globe, in which labor is yeteven far worse off than in ourown New England. But “to return to my mutton.” Thonsands, if not tens of thousands, pass daily into and out of Boston upon the Eastern railroads, as well as on all the other railroads centering in that city; all dispatching trains here and there half hourly Fifty thousand persons, including their families, doing business in Boston, are esti:nated to reside outside the city’s limits; and nearly that number, including strangers, are thought to arrive in and depart from the city daily by rail and steam. boat. The reader can, fio this statement, im- agine the constant whirl of bustle and excite- ment surrounding all the city’s many depots from sun to sun; which resemble in this par- ticular the rallroad depots of no other American elty. The order and system with which their depot business is conducted are worthy of all praise, and from them all other American rail- road companics may draw useful and economical lessons. ‘Vheir regalations to relieve the traveling public from the ordinary disabilities of the competition of hackmen and porters deserve especial commen- dation, and should be closely studiud by railroad managers desirous of inxking their routes popuiar with the public. At their depots one begins to perceive that Boston is especially un-American. The manners of all employed in or hanging about them resemble those of traveling Englishmen, rather than of our own countrymen elsewhere . and even their accent bas ia the last quarter of a century gradually become English rather than American, as well as the cut of their clothes and the air they wear. Boston sends more of her people over the Atlantic yearly—far more in pro. Portion to population—than any other American city, They bring back the English manners and customs which it is the fashion to wear here, and inoculate all below them in wealth and soc{zl position with such idiosyncracies. Hence the intense cockney atmosphere which the stranger breathes in Boston—of which more anon.
