Discontent Among the Laboring Classes, Tho Cigar-Makers’ Strike—Attempted Move of the Painters, Plumbers and Brown Stone Rubbers—The ‘Long- shoremen on Strike, The friends of our manufacturing interests mist ever regret the existenge of causes whion disvurb the balance of power between capital and labor, those twin sisters of modern progress, whose un- remitting struggles for supremacy must always tend to tho discomf@ture of both. it 18 particu- larly unfortunate that in America, where indus- trial and manu/acturing interests are but in their infaney, labor should demand or capital deny any- thing which, well unaerstood, couid prove to be of mutual benefit to both. It should be the study of employ to give the best possible prices for labor consistent with a reasonable remu- neration for capital and risks involved in their respective limes of business; and it ought to be equally imcumbent upon the employed to make no extravagant demands for exorbitant wages that would cripple and em. barrass capital. Some kinds of ousiness, such as bricklaying, stonecutting, painting, plumbing and the like, need not depend upon the rates paid to similar trades in @ foreign market to fix their Prices here, for these must hinge upon the occa- sional or permanent conditions of LOOAL SUPPLY AND DEMAND. Others again, like the texule fabrics or iron mavufactures, that have to fight their way into market overt against European cheap labor, must olten modify their scales of wagesin such manner as may best enable the American capi- talist to successfully grapple with an exceedingly sharp foreign competition, which imundates our markets with low-priced goods, In conversation with several prominent manu- facturers, these gentlemen advanced the theory that at the bottom of our whole labor question es that of the tariff. They say some Americans make the great mistake of thinking that our ports should be thrown opeu to the world and custom houses abolished, Nothing could be more pleasing to the opponents of American progress than this 1dea, nor half so fatal to our struggling irdustries. For us to produce the raw material, send it to Europe and receive back in return all the manu- factured necessaries of life, would be to bind our- selves hand ana foot at the bidding of America’s bitteress commercial rival—England. Kill | American manufactures and Britain has what she most desires; toment them, and her free trade press is ‘urious, Journals at either side of the ocean and on both sides of the question have lauded their respective theories to the akies, pre- tending to trace them to general principles that are thought to be applicable in all countries and under every circumstance. Nothing can be more erroneous than this crazy hypothesis, say our American tradesmen. The truth 1s that the tariff question, whicti directly affects the manuwiacturing interests and operatives’ wages at the same time, ig one that admits of diforent interpretations in distinct countriesand epochs, England, that has @ superabundance of cheap labor, excellent machinery and manufactaring ‘facilities, naturally is the strenuous friend of free trade, because her advantages enable her to compete successfully with ali ber rivals, America, on the contrary, where raw material can be had tn abundance, but labor (because of her immense outlets for 11) 18 at &@ comparative premium, ought always to favor A PROTECTIVE TARIFF, LU England wants to seil her wares in our mar- kets she should pay for t privilege, and thus help so deiray the expenses of government, And ‘we snould place upon all joreign goods just such an amount of duty as might put them on a par with similar classes of merchandise producea in the United States. Bat, say our iree traders, this gives unusual advantages to Americans engaged in the manufactare of certain articles, and the many are taxed for the benefit of @ few who are lucky enough tobe en- | Ritts - West, The foliowtng are the re- ces m against whic! men have Regaha Intimidad, irom $36 to $32 per bre ees Me ag rom He, $90} Beury ay, One, irom to $20; Henry Clay, common, $20 to $18; Conena, Flora de Famar.

A recent card published over the signatures of ten leading firms engaged in the painting trade an nounced that on and alter the 15th o/ last month a day’s work in their snops would be ten hours, and nine on Saturday. singularly enougn this card appeared on the 3d inst. It was speedily sol- lowed by another over the siguature of Rubert Purcell, on behaltor the Journeymen Plumber's Benevolent and Protective Society, and an- nounced that thereafter aday’s labor would be nine hours. A number of shops were visited yes- terday on upper Broadway aod some of tne side streets near by. [t did not appear that any of the men wore on sirike—some were working ten hours, others nine, and, 1a one or two instances, THE EIGHT HOUR LAW was adhered to. There seemed to be a difference of opinion among both masters and men upon the hours which saculd constitute & day’s work. few of the small employers thought eignt hours long enough lor any’ man to labor, wile in the larger shops the bosses claimed that notulng less than ten would' do, Property-holdeis wno often had jovbing done oF the day would accept hothing under ten pours, RK.

Tne men Who are chgaged in th: Occupation of stone rupbing Want to elevate it imto the ulgnity of a trade, but stonecutters and employers will not bear of this, Saying inat they can make @ mana good stone rubver in three days, The workmen attempted to orgamize a protective society and compel green hands to pay $20 initiation jee be- fore being allowed to cominence work. ‘This rale has been abolished, Along the North River, west of Eleventh avenue, all the yards are at work with their old hands, and the attempted strike 1s knocked on the head for the time being. THB 'LONGSHOREMEN, The "longshoremen at work ou several piers at the North River have struck for oid rates, forty cents an hour, instead of thirty cents during the day an@ forty-five cents at night, as at present. Those employed by the White Star line, pier 62 North River, were the first to strike. Green hands ana sailors have veen em: toyed in their Places, and the company’s agents say that not one O! the strikers will again be employed. At Atlas pier 51 the men aiso took the fleld, but subse. through the Stevedores’ Agency. Tne Trans. | atlantic Compaoy are unloading their steamer | Pereire by her crew, in consequence of 100 men | having struck at pler 50.

A meeting was held in No, 78 Varick street, at which ‘longshorenmien and representatives irom @ number Of otter societies discussed the feasi- bility oO! making a general strike throuzhout the city. This was not determined upon, but a mo- ton passed which imposes a fine of 0) upon any ‘longshoreman who should go to work at a lesser rate than forty cents per hour, day or night. A similar meeting was held vy 'Longshoreman Lodge No, 2, at the St. James’ school house in New Boweiy. Thi eeting adopted resolutions similar to Loose of the Varick sireet people.

The disturoing elements at work in our midst, Whereby those barmunious relations which should reign between the employer and employed are disturbed, snowid be watchea with care and | promptly checked. This, ior our owa sakes, too, pecaure dissensions, like labor strikes, are often attrioutavle to joreign influences, which insid- jousiy and silentiy actemps to undermine our commercial aud industrial as well as political relations at the Same time.

Let as pursue the subject no jurther at present. The tardy flight of winter aud opening of au immense spring trade in almost every branch of industry have again given occupation by the un- emp.oyed thousands among artisans, mechanics, lavorers and others who Guripg the last tour or five long, weary mootus of inactivity had been Irequentiy pat to hard sits for their duly bread. Whetoer or not it be pradent that work. ingmen under such untoward circumstances should press their employers to the wail upon a question of salary—one (nat, after ail, can only be adjaste1 by time and through the inevitable laws of supply and demand—neea not now pe con- siderea. SuMice it to say that the Cuban cigar- makers, brown stone rubbers, ‘iongshore- men abd some other trades or tluns have already shown signs of dis- content, aud are not only displeased with the actual thriving state ot trade, but have resolved, in imitation of their resolute fellow laborers in Pennsylvania, to go into strike upon the import- ant questions of Wages and hours of labor.
