40 a ———— ‘The Hard Times. JHE UNEMPLOYED WORKMEN BEFORE THE COMMITTEE OF THE BOARD OF COUNCILMEN. Yesterday, pursuant to announcement, a committee of he unemployed workmen, appointed at a meetiog held @t Hope Chapel recently, consisting of Robert Grant, William West, Ben Price, Ira B. Davis, William Rows, ad William Arbuthnot, appeared before a committees of We Board of Councilmen, to whom was referred the pe- Bition of the unemployed workmen. The meeti'g was Balled at two o’clock, in the chamber of the Hoard of Pouncilmen, but the committee did not make thelr ap- pearance before three. Councilman Baxwxy took the chair, and informed the workmen that the committee was ready to hear what they had to offer. Mr. Rovernt GRANT desired to know if the committee wished to hear the whole question as to the merits of the subject of the memorial discussed, or simply on the propriety of allowing the workmen to appear before the Councilmen. Caaimmax—We wish to hear all you have to say. Mr. West—I understand that the committee can hear anything we bring before them. ir. BN Paick—Li we have the right to ceme before ‘the Board of Councilmen, we should prefer doing so. Ciiaimman—We tear that if the privilege of pleading in person befere the Council were allowed, it would lead to great abuse, and it would be well for you to lay all your amemorials before us. ‘Mr. West then read the following ADDRESS. ‘To tux Honorante THE BoaRD oF CoUNcILMEN.— GenTLxMEN—We Lge you in behalf of thousands of unemployed worsing men of this city, in the per- formance of a duty they have imposed upon us, to ask at your bands no favor, out to claim a right—to beg no charity, but to demahd justice. There is yet, amid their very great and general distress, in the hearts of ‘these men, # sense of manliness which forbids them to come to you in the character of paupers, tO pray for and to receive at your hands pauper relief. Taney feel that, for their inability to obtain work, on account of which they are now suflering extreme want, being re- duced to-almost famine rations, they are in nowise to blame. They, indeed, impute no blame even to any person, or class of persons, through whose iostrumen- tality the wrongs which have been inflicted upon them may have been occasioned, They know, of a surety, that they, and their oppressors too, are equally the vic- tims of ‘a faise system of social and political economy. On the side of their oppressors there is the power of edu- catior, of custom, and of unwise legislation, On the! side there is only the power of truth, of immutable right, of justice. Now, gentlemen, you are the legisia- tors in and for the city ana county of New York, Joined with the Beard o Aliermen, you are together familiarly termed the Fathers of the city. Why you are thus rs we cannot conceive, unless it be that you hold jhe same relation to the citizen that a parent does to is child, As your children, then, we come to oy our parents, and ask that yon will simply pro- ct us in the exercise of our rights, - upon condi- lion that we will iaithfuily perform our duties. We ask ou, in the first place, that you will, as faras in you 8, secure to us the right to labor. ‘The law ‘does,’ in- deed, accord to us the privilege of earning our bread by the sweat of our brows, if we can find in the community any more fortunate brethren, possessing land and capi- tal, who may be able and willing to afford us an oppor. tunity. Such men, however, cannot now be found in sufficient number: toemploy the many thousaads in whose behalf we speak. Gentlemen, the labor market is overstocked, ‘There are more workmen than there i work for them to do at the instance of private ind viduals. So, gentlemen, all the efforts they un- ceasingly make to obtain leave to tor are made in vain, Itis asadtruth—one to which you cannot give too much consideration— to wit, that private capital is in- sufficient to satisty the demands of labor. Uniess you, ‘therefore, substitute the public for private capitai, in the employment of these thousands of compulsori'y idle workmen, it must be apparent that these men cannot Live except upon charity, (which they will not ask, and are very reluctant to receive,) or by theft (which is their last alternative). Unless you, at this trying crisis, laterpo © your protecting arm, it ix evident that these men, becaiixe existing laws accord them no pr tection in the exercise of their natural right to labor, must perish, We ask you, in the second place, to secure to us the right of acquiring, and to protect us ta the enjoyment of, inalensbis homes, Probably not one hundred of the thousards wanting employment own the houses they lve in Why they do not, ia rious question, which we think demands from you mediate attention, The custom—sanctionod by’ law, ag it is—of private ir dividuals letting their dwellings to te: nants for a rent. which is Mmited only by the cessation of the demand o/ the tenantry for the occupancy of such Awellings, abstracts at least one third of the workingman’s Wages, Then, the rent, which is paid to private individu- “9 lemanded in advance, and in the midst of universal di: tress, hundreds of tenants are dailytaraed atreets, and deprived of even the most raiserable ehclt®, because they have not paid their reat upon dg- mand, coupled, as that demand atways ix, with the state- ment that the next year it will be mereased—perhaps one half as much more. Should not this system of dis posing of the product of labor to the necessitous, (which & the only one known to the laws, under which the re- ipient is required to pay for that product before he has eceivedit,) be speedily brought to a close? We believe t should be; bot we can imagine no means of accom- lishing this end, except by appealing to your sense <f the claims ‘of justice. Gentlemen, we are nformed, and believe, that the Corporation of the ity hold © tryst for e \0 e, fhm five. thousand’ bulfling fu? Patcn bre As et unimproved. Now, therefore, in the memorial Fuien we'have beea instructed to present to you, we ray that these lots may be improve: by the erection of bi dings thereon, suitable for dwellings for the tenant- of the city, and then let to occupants only at a just ind equal ren’, ‘by which we mean a moderate and limit td per cent upcn the value of the same. You have the power to enact that this shall be done. Do it, and there will be sork enough, and more than enough, to oceupy five thousand workmen six months in the year, rotect the working class against the increase of exor- itant rente, decrease the rate of taxation, aad yield an income to the city treasury. We trust that you will promptly take into consideration these, our reasons for the request we have preferred, and forthwith grant our sroyes a [We published the memorial in Wedne in the proceedings of the Board of Aldera Mr. West—We do not come before th's committee as beggars, but ask what wedeem ght. We ask not alms, but work ;and there is no use in having a govern teas they can furn.sh the people what they want. It seems to the workingmen that they have a right to their own, and all that accrues to the city government comos pri- marily from them. We don’t want a little soup now, and some cast off clothing to morrow; but we do want work and 6 means of making an hones$ livelhood. If there was a plague in the city, or a riot, every means in the power of the city governwent would be put in use to eave the people. Now, the condition of the working classes is most piteous. They want bread. Is there not enough in the city? They want clothes. Is there none made now-a-days’ Now, we have aright to ask of the city government togive us work, and we demand of this committee a favorable report. It was statedin one of the papers that the reference to this committee would Kill the application. Let us hope, sir, rather that it will be the means of enauring the success of this application Mr. Ben Price—We have come here to diseyss this question, and as soon as the Committee have dara us, we would like to know what they can say in reply. Cuamman—The gentleman mistakes our position; we have come here to hear arguments, not to discuss plans of relief. Mr. Paicn still thought the Committee should answer the workmen's petition, if they could. When we vote for legislators, it is not that they may do our thinking, but do our will. Mr, Arpotanot—If we leave this matter to the Coun- cilmen for their action, we will be in the same situation ase who has not a chance to defend himself; we want to be heard before the Council. Mr. Graxt—I propose, gentlemen, that we withdraw our application to be heard before the Councilmen, and leave the subject matter of our memorial to the action of this Committee. ‘This course was at length agreed to. Messrs. Davis, rant and others, briefly addressed the Committee; no he else appearing, they at length adjourned, and the DPwmittee separated. STARVATION AT THE FIVE POINTS. Pestitution and suffering at the Five Points have in- ed to such an alarming extent within the last few ka, that the undersigned, being of the advisory com- mittee of the Ladies’ Home Missionary Societ ¢ been constrained by their interest in that locality, and their intimate knowledge of its pressing wante, to take definite action in its’ behalf. eir simple object is to supply the destitute and perishing with bread.

It is believed that the central and well known position of the Mi«sion-house (on he site of the Old Brewery) renders it the most suitable place in the ward as a depot, and that the long expe- rience those connected with the mission have had in visiting through that section, and fans forming an ac- uaintance with the character of its inhabitants, pecu- Harly qualifies them to superintend the distributing of bread and against imposition. It is not neces-ary at this time to describe any cases of extreme suffering, as they exist at the Five Points and in many other places in the ward. I' is well Known to those who are acquainted with that locality that hundreds of families have sold or pawned the last article of farnitare or apparel to procure food, and are now left on the bare floor, without bedding or fuel, and not knowing where they may get the next mouthful to cat. Persons in these circumstances (many of them sober, industrious people) are thronging the Mission- house daily, and from stern necessity many are denied relief, This state of sullering is increasing daily, and tho starving must be fed.

THE WHIG YOUNG MEN'S COMMITTEE. Pursuant to call the Wnig Young Men’s Committee met last night at the Broadway House, to elect officers for the ensuing year. The attendance was quite full, and although the committee is supposed to be composed of young men, it is a fact that many of the oldest whig politicians are among its members. ‘The committee organized by the appointment of John Lalor of toe Tenth ward, as chairman, and William H. Browne, of the Twenty-first ward, and Jacob Cholwell, of the Ninth ward, as secretaries, On calling the roll it appeared that there was a full delegation from each ward represented, and that from * the First ward there was two tickets, as follows:—First ticket—Peter H. Graham, Wm, Black, P. Closey, Joseph A. Gardiner, Thomas Coady. Second ticket—0O, D. Rey- nolds, T A. Painter, Wm. Thompson, John F. Parker, Wm. G. Black. On motion, the two delegations were sent back and a new election ordered, which will be held next Tuesday evening, at the Atlantic Garden. The committee then proceeded to ballot for officers for the ensuing year, James H, Weleh, of the Second ward, and H, W. Genet, of the Nineteenth ward, were put in nomination.

Judge Welch, cn assuming the chair, made an appro. priate adress, in which he avowed ‘his adherence to the old platform of the whig party. He would support Myron H.

Barker, G. RB Jammer B. Kimball; ptaln’ ‘tant Eo- ‘cofené, R. B. Quin, '@ Clork—Semuel VY. Leoch, Lecture on Turkey. ‘The Hon. George P. Marsh lectured upon this subject last evening, in Clinton Hall, before an average audience. The following is @ brief synopsis of his remarks; —Be- ginning with a gemeral description of the eastern shores of the Mediterranean sea, he alluded to Constantinople as indeed the first seat of the Christian religion, but as never free, virtuous and enlightened, and, down to the time of its final conquest, as in a most complete state of demoratization. The only hope of Turkey is the conver- sion of its inhabitants to the Christian religion. But in reviewing the character of the Ottoman people, it must be remembered that our first opinions were derived from their national enemies—the Grooks. If Turkey has sometimes wronged the Christians, she has also suffered from them in turn. The Janissaries were undoubtedly @ brutal soldiery; but they were suppressed in 1826. The ‘Turkish soldier is calm and unexcitable; and, in fact, there is no capital in Europe so free from crime as the military quarters at Stamboul; while, on the contrary, there is po piace where crime is committed to such an extent as in the Christian suburbs of Constantinople. One of the most common charges against the Turks is that of indo- lence; but the vice is almost entirely confined to the inhabitants of the capita). In commerce Turkey is far behind the age; but in this also she bas been the day of Christian powers. There is no encouragement to in- dustry Loong Se its branches; but it 1s to be hoped tuat rec! procit; trade will be the result of her alliance with the Western Powers, But whatever may be her wrongs, Turkey for three hundred years has been an asylum to European exiled b mca To Kastern Eu- rope she bas long been what England is to Western Eu- rope. The Turk naturally is courageous and devoted to his religion, But he has become aware that his social crgapization cannot long exist in defance of Western civilization, and 1: political hope, he has fallen into the sin of the orientalist—venality and official corruption. To him the Koran is the Gospel of his religion, the sta- tute of his government, and ihe code which governs him in his social and political duties. Christianity has, how- ever, recently been presented to the Mcslem in’purer forms, and the Bible is sold in the streets of his capital. Reform in Turkey is now going on with accelerated speed under the present Sultan. Asa matter cf historical truth, it ought to be recorded that these reforms, ia the first instance, are owing to France, and, in conjunction with ber, Great Britain has pressed reform upon the | Sultan with unabated zeal. dn the’ other hand, other | European influences have been at work to counteract it, and reform has had its enemy, nos in the obstinsey of the Turk, but in the intrigues of Christian. Powers. Next to the Tark ranks the Armenian; but he ig vastly inferior. The A:menians do not consti- opened under Mr. Butts’ auspices last | tute more than a twelfth of the empire. The Greek is the opps of the Turk in all that is honest and good. He is, indeed, quick, active and intelligent, but the race in modern times is degenerate, He is false in word, deed and thought.” The Gree! shamelessly yenal and corrupt, and of all men the least capable of feeling true patriotism. Nationality presents itself to him in no other form than that of sestarianism Re- ligion with him is the symbol of clanship. Such is the people which created such a sympathy a few years since | over the world, and who ask for a sympathy now whish they do not deserve. He (the lecturer) did not believe | in the so-called regeneration of Turkey, butif the Eu- | ropean powers would in good faith undertake the re- formation of Turkey, it would be better governed by Cripo. rulers than by any of those who now claim to ern it. othe lecturer then went into a lengthened description of the Pcity of Constantinople, called Stamboul. He spoke of the general Anpesrenoe of the Ge situated, like Rome, on seven hills—its private residences and public buildings, including the bazaars and the mosques. fhe Arabic, Persian, and Turkish languages are very difficult fo Jearn, as'there are no capital letters and no commas, and vowels are selcom used. Thus, though most Turks can read, very few can do so with fluency. ‘The currency is chielly in bills, from ten to oue thousand instres, and gold and silver coin, though rare, is of the Righest purity. The lecturer, after speaking of the trade in the bazaars, next spoke of the mosquea—the celebrated one of Saint Sophia in particular, The in- terest in the latter consists chiefly in its associations as the first Christian cathedral and the Metropolitan Church of the last of the old empires. An interesting ace punt of the minarets or steeples, from which the ec- Clesiastic crier calls the Moslem to the worship of the only God, with an allusion to the origin of the crescent, the sign cf the Mahomedan faith, closed the description. of the mosques of Constantinople, Personal Ini Cee Mr Buchanan, the Lancaster Jntelligencer’ says, in- tends to return home in October next, making his stay abroad two years. ‘The Cincinnati Gazette of the 3d instant says:—We were informed yesterday by Hon, J. Scott Harrison that his mother, the widow of sident Harrison, although very feeble and Lecerbest confined to her bed, bas im- roved considerably, within the last eight days, and Opes oe entertained of her becoming compiratively wellagain. Yet she is in a very feeble and uncertain state, which renders the duration of Mr. Harrison’s ab- sence trom Washington a matter of uncertainty, al- though he is extromely anxious to be at his post in the federal city.
